Jiyoo was talking with her team in the hall because they still have an hour before the bus arrive at the NetG Company, the bus that will send them to their dorm.

“Let’s do this properly, the result was bad but that doesn’t affect us. We did well, we just need to put lot of effort.” The oldest and the leader Choi Yeonjun said.

“Yeah, let’s just do better for the next competition.” Ryujin said as she smile to the team.

“So, how we going to make a team for duo?” Jiyoo asked as she gets curious for next competition.

“I think let’s do this, Jiyoo and Yeonjun the only person who win the fights today. Why not we put the lost one to shine while the win person will teach us. Let’s put Jiyoo aside to teach us and because Yeonjun is a leader it’s better to let him to join the duo team.” Daniel said and looked at Jiyoo sadly.

“I’m okay with that.” Jiyoo agreeing making the team sadly looked at her.

“Are you sure?” Ryujin asked as she hold Jiyoo’s hand.

“It’s fine, beside we need to show them that we can win even we in the last position and I trust my team.” Jiyoo said as the team smile sweetly at her.

“You're a good sister,no one.” Yeonjun said and patted Jiyoo’s head.

“Yeah whatever.” Jiyoo laughed and pushed his hand away.

“So...?” Jake looked at them waiting for next step.

“Let’s test our chemistry.” Yeonjun said as they focus to him.

“Who like mint chocolate rise your hand?” Yeonjun said as he raised his hand.

Jiyoo was laughing when no on put their hands up.

“That’s a dumb idea of yours Yeonjun-ahh” Ryujin said as she laughed a little.

“Let’s do this, who wants to be Yeonjun’s partner?” Jiyoo said as they focus on her.

“Only Jake?” Jiyoo asked as she not expect only Jake chose Yeonjun.

“Who do you want to pair up with, Daniel?” Jiyoo asked as she waited for Daniel to talk.

“I don’t know yet but I’m fine with anyone.” Daniel shrugged.

“Ryujin, are you okay to pair up with Daniel?” Yeonjun asked.

“I’m okay with anything.” She said and shrugged too.

“Then, we’re done.” Jiyoo smile sweetly as she happy with her team.

Meanwhile….

“Jungwon! Niki!” Lea hit them for staring nowhere to long.

“We’re here to talk and discuss with the next competition, focus!” Lea said as they trying to focus.

“I was thinking that Sunghoon will be my partner while Niki will be Yeji’s partner.” Lea explained to both of Niki and Jungwon.

“Eh? I didn’t sign up for that.” Niki said as he don’t want to be Yeji’s partner.

“Is it because I’m the only person who lost in this team?” Yeji sadly asked to him.

Niki sighed.

“No Yeji, I think I will not going to pair up with anyone. It’s better like that.” Niki said.

“I think he’s right, people think Niki the only one who make this team win so let’s show them that we can win even without Niki.” Sunghoon said making their team nodded in agreement.

Yuri was speaking thru the mic making everyone who was busy discussing with their team, startled by her suddenly voice.

“Attention please, after you all done deciding for the duo team please write the name that will fight next week and your bus is here so be fast and don’t be late.”

After that, one by one people write their name at the front desk.

Lea was on Jiyoo’s bed keep bugging to tell her if Jiyoo will be in the duo team next week.

“Yah~” Lea whined and hugged Jiyoo’s arm.

“Lea, I’m sleepy go away...” Jiyoo said and pushed her away gently.

“Am I even your best—“

Jiyoo hissed and looked at Lea, annoyed.

“I will be in the team and maybe will be your fight, happy? Now go to sleep, we need to wake up early tomorrow.” Jiyoo said to satisfy Lea.

Jiyoo pushed Lea from her bed and Lea end up at the floor.

The next morning Jiyoo woke up early and brush her teeth before going out for a run. Jiyoo looked at the sleeping Lea and smile a little before headed out.

After Jiyoo done with her run, she walking to go to her room and accidently came across with Niki. Niki was leaning at the wall with his crossing arm on his chest and with his eyes close.

“What is he even doing?” Jiyoo said and just walk away leaving him that was doing nothing.

Jiyoo opened the door of her room and greet Lea that was already done getting ready.

“There you are, I thought you will be late.” Lea said and looked herself at the mirror.

“Go get ready and eat breakfast with us.” Lea said so Jiyoo just nodded and going to go to the bathroom to take a shower.

After Jiyoo done getting ready, Lea eyeing her body not satisfy with the clothes she’s wearing.

“Why are you wearing a short? I thought you will have practice today.”

“It’s not that short.” Jiyoo said looked at her leg and looked back at Lea while frowning.

“Is your partner is a boy?”

Jiyoo shook her head.

“Still, go change you will get to much skin ship if you wear that.” Lea warned her but Jiyoo just walked away from their room with her bag leaving Lea behind.

Lea continues to nag at Jiyoo while Jiyoo just hears Lea's blabbering words.

Jiyoo sat at the table where Niki and Jungwon at is. Jungwon choked on water while Niki choked on food when they looked at Jiyoo that was already sitting in front of them with her breakfast.

“Hi Jungwon.” Jiyoo greet him with a smile.

“Hi.” Jiyoo smile at Niki and eat her food.

“Oh… Hi.” Niki awkwardly replied her.

“Mind to explain why you didn’t call me back after you didn’t pick up my call?” Jungwon looked at Jiyoo with his cute angry face making Jiyoo smile by his cuteness.

“Let’s talk about that later, or maybe let’s have a call tonight.” Jiyoo said and looking at Jungwon while eating her food.

“H-how are you?” Niki asked Jiyoo as he felt nervous.

“I’m okay.” Jiyoo said and smile sweetly at Niki.

“About that day, I’m sor—“

“It’s fine, I already move on.” Jiyoo said and ate her food like everything is normal.

“That fast?” Niki asked looked at Jiyoo confused.

“Y-yeah...” Jiyoo lied.

Lea looked at Jiyoo knowing that she lied to him. Lea just shook her head and ate her food while talking with Jungwon.
