Ch 1

"How many times do I have to tell you, Giselle? NO!" Karina exclaimed, her fingers pressing against her nose bridge. Winter, NingNing and Giselle looked at each other uneasily. "We know games with stories and side quests are not your type of games, but you have to check this one out! They say it's the best game of the year!" NingNing said, frowning frustratedly.

"It's January, Ning." Winter whispered, earning a hiss and a nudge in her side from NingNing.

Karina sighed. "That's not the problem, guys! It's the fact that we literally have to pay a million dollars to buy it and the whole story's not even in the game! We will have to buy the DLC which is again sold for a million dollars!"

Giselle huffed and folded her arms over her chest, staring pointedly at her. "What, you're telling me you're broke?"

Karina ignored her and groaned. "How many times do I have to say this? No! We are not buying that obviously scam of a game!"

"Exactly 500 times." Everybody stared at Giselle. "What?" She looked at everyone one by one: NingNing was surprised, Winter frustrated and Karina confused.

"You weren't supposed to say that!" Winter hissed.

"What do you mean she wasn't supposed to say that?" Karina asked, staring at them suspiciously.

"Oh, it's nothing." Giselle waved as if to disregard what she had said. "It's just a little thing we agreed on." Winter and NingNing forced a smile, "Yeah, nothing to worry about."

"Wait, do I have to say no 500 times for you to stop?" Karina asked with widened eyes.

NingNing and Winter both glared at Giselle, who was checking out her nails. "Perhaps," She replied to Karina with a smirk.

"You-" Winter started, disbelief all over her face, but was cut short by Karina.

"Alright, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no-"

"Sorry, but that is gonna be counted as one." Giselle smiled slyly.

Karina frowned, "How are you counting?"

"Me?" Giselle asked, taken aback. "Well, I count like everybody else. Like, 1, 2, 3, 5 -"

"No, no, that's not what I meant!" Karina frowned. "I meant how will you know I've said no 500 times?"

"Oh, we use this!" NingNing showed her a banana.

"Okay, I'll try again."

"No," she said, waited a second, and continued, "No,"

She kept doing this for a few minutes. "No...No... Am I there yet?" She asked, slumped on her chair in front of her computer. NingNing checked her phone, "Nope! Only 269 times more now!" She said cheerfully.

At this, winter perked up. "Just give up now!" She exclaimed with a smirk.

Karina rolled her eyes. "No," she started again. "No-" she was cut off by a sound. "SAY WHAT YOU WANT, NAL BARABWA-"

Giselle groaned, and smacked the alarm clock that was floating over her head. Then, another song started playing. "FEEL LIKE I'M YOUR CAT, I'M YOUR DOG-" Karina screamed and Winter threw another alarm clock that appeared against the wall.

It went silent after that. "Are you okay?" Winter asked, concerned.

"Yeah-" NingNing started but just then, another song started playing. "WHY DO I KEEP GETTING ATTRACTED-"

NingNing flinches and kicks another alarm clock across the room.

Suddenly, a dozen or so Alarm clocks appear and start blasting the same words. "MODEUN GEON SAMKYEOBEORIL BLACK MAMBA!" Everybody jumped in shock and fear as all the clocks dropped at once on their heads.

Finally, Giselle managed to get up. She looked around and saw that she's in her own bedroom instead of Karina's. "Huh, what a weird dream."

She chuckled and goes to her bathroom to do her morning routine.

Later that day, she was in a café with her friends.

"...And that was my dream." Giselle nodded her head as she took another sip of her iced americano.

The girls stared at her weirdly. "And you told us that because?" NingNing asked with raised eyebrows as she too took a sip of her drink.

Giselle shrugged. "It was related to what I have to say," she answered, looking at them seriously.

"What in the world could be related to a dream like that?" Winter asked, irritated.

"Well there's this new game-"

"No." Karina cut in. "You said you were going to be busy these few months because of a few partnerships. I don't think you will have time to play a game."

Giselle scoffed, "Those partnerships don't start until next week. I can atleast play a few games by then!"

Karina sighed. "I don't think there's anything I can do to stop you, is it?"

Giselle smirked and shook her head before taking another sip of her drink. "And you will have to play with me. You have no other choice," she said gleefully.

NingNing laughed and nodded. "I wouldn't say no to a game recommended by Giselle. After all, she has introduced a few hidden gems to us before!"

Winter nodded at NingNing with a small smile and then looked at Karina, hoping to figure out what she was thinking.

Karina hesitated, then said, "I... I guess. Alright, but we should be done with the game as soon as possible, cause I'm going to be busy this week."

Giselle narrowed her eyes and grinned, cat-like, at NingNing and said, "I knew I could count on you, Ning!" They both bumped their fists.

A few minutes later, Winter broke the silence by asking, "Hey Giselle? What was the last song in your dream?"

NingNing groaned. "C'mon! Why would you ask her that? She might start again."

Giselle glared at her. "To think I trusted you... Anyway," She looked back at Winter and answered, " The last one wasn't a song, I think. It was something like 'Medusa shingeki no kyojin black mamba....?' Yeah, something like that."

"What language is that?" NingNing asked, laughing with Karina.

Winter frowned. "No, it was something else."

Giselle scoffed. "What? You think you know my dream better than me?"

"Actually, I think I do."

All three of them stared at her weirdly.

"I mean, I've had a similar dream a few days ago. I was sitting in a café enjoying my iced jalapeño coffee, when a dog appeared out of nowhere and started singing happy birthday to me. Then, everybody present in the café, about a dozen or two people, joined it and started singing. Suddenly, all there smiles vanished! They all started chanting the same thing: 'Neol yuhokhae samkin geon, black mamba'." She said all this while leaning in, like telling a horror story.

"I forgot about that until you mentioned your dream, and I clearly remember you said 'Modeun geon samkyeobeoril black mamba'. I still have no idea what it means though." She slurped her drink loudly, startling the other girls.

Frowning, Karina leaned back in her chair. She kept muttering the words over and over again, as if trying to decode a foreign language. Suddenly, she widened her eyes. "I know what it means!" She exclaimed, slamming her hand on the table, earning a few curious glances from other people in the café. Muttering a few soft apologies to them, she turned to the girls in front of her who were eyeing her surprisedly.

"You know the phase when I wanted to be a k-pop idol back in middle school?" When the girls nodded, she continued, "You know how I learned Korean for 2 years because of that?" The girls nodded, frowning, not grasping where this was going at all.

"Well, the words in your dream were in Korean, and I know exactly what they mean!" She said excitedly.

Upon hearing this, the girls perked up, feeling excited too. "Well? What does it mean?" Giselle urged with sparkling eyes.

"Winter's dream means 'the temptation that swallows you, black mamba' and Giselle's dream means 'it will swallow everything, black mamba'. I think they're connected." Karina said, her hands clasped as she stared at them seriously.

Giselle grinned up at winter, "Way to go soulmate!" She held out her fist, which Winter bumped with her own gladly.

NingNing said, "Well, we can worry about that later. For now let's enjoy the few free days we have together." She smiled up at them.

Karina and winter nodded. "I agree."

You and Karina,Yunah,and Yunjin have been hanging out more and plan on hanging out at the banquet. You've been getting texts like

But tonight you’re gonna have fun.

“Rina,Yun,Jinnie!!” You squeal in excitement as you walk up to them. Your silky black dress hugging your curves, defining them PERFECTLY. “Baby you’re finally here!” Karina runs to you, her heels tapping the floor every step. You two hug til’ Yunah,and Yunjin catches up to you two. “Girlies I got NEWS.” You say, your tone sounding excited and sad at the same time. “OH MY GOD?! DID HEESEUNG BUY YOUR FLOWERS?” they repeatedly ask to your face. “Uhm, no. BUT. I finally had the guts and exposed him! I FINALLY. FUCKING FINALLY. I did it my way.” You squeal excitedly. “Yes girl finally!” they all squeal, matching your energy. “Well I gotta catch up with Riki! Bye guys!!” You say then run in the opposite direction they were running to. You could hear them yelling their goodbyes.

“Riki i'm finally he-” your tone is disappointed. Ni-Ki was there. Kissing, another girl. “Baby its not what it seems!” Ni-ki says back. “Baby i promi-” you cut him off by running off crying. Your bag dangling as you run. Sobbing, you bump into Heeseung. “Y/N are you oka-” “Not right now Hee” You push him and run off. “Hee”. Now that you think about it that's something you only called him while y'all were dating.

───

part one: it wasn't supposed to be like this...

wc:1955 cw: angst, bullying, derogatory comments, pregnancy

Last days of high school were not meant to be like this.

Last days of high school were meant to be full of colour and sparkles, touched with the essence of joy and love. Last days of middle school were meant to tire you out with all the dancing and games involved.

Her feet were meant to hurt from not being able to sit down from all the spinning around. Her eyes were meant to be sore with tears from the aching feeling of never seeing her teachers again, and fear of the prospect of arts college. Her face should have been stained with face paint, hair tangled with streamers and confetti.

The last day of high school should not have ended with Winter Kim sitting on the bathroom floor of her apartment, throat sore from crying, eyes red raw from rubbing them with the hem of her school jumper, legs cramped from curling up between the toilet and sink.

The final rays of sunlight shone weakly through the grey clouds into the bathroom, casting a faint shadow across the vinyl that described exactly how Winter felt…invisible.

She should have known that something was wrong for ages, that it was all too good to be true. Hyunsuk hadn't answered any of her calls all week, avoided her in the school corridors, and ignored her messages on KakaoTalk even when it showed he was online. Winter had lied to herself that perhaps he needed space from her, he couldn't leave her after the threw years they'd been together, maybe he was just sad…the truth had hit her in the face today. Hard.

...

The last day of middle school celebrations had been held in the sports hall that afternoon, with games and dancing (and lots of food) promised as the evening rolled in. Winter had looked for Hyunsuk amongst the bustling students, hoping that she would be able to make him stop ignoring her, but he was nowhere to be found. It's hard, having a boyfriend. You sort of lose your personality. And because Bianca didn't have a personality, she didn't have any other friends. And she wasn't about to start trying to make any, not on the last day.

Embarrassed, she'd sat on the benches, alone. The fun of the day blurred into flashing colours before her eyes as she bit her nails worriedly, the music overhead on the speakers mashing into a pulsing boom. She didn't know why Hyunsuk was acting this way. He was the love of her life, the key to her heart. He was everything that she was not.

All the girls in her class were jealous of her for being Hyunsuk’s girlfriend. In a way, she understood their envy. He was handsome, smart, and respectful to the teachers. He wanted to join the Navy Corps when he was twenty. His parents were rich and elegant, his younger siblings cute and fair.

Winter had pretended not to notice the stares and whispers in the school corridors for so long, but now she felt that she had lost her grip on Hyunsuk at last.

She was right.

As if by magic, there he was, with her ‘friend’, Huh Yunjin from her form clinging onto his arm. They were both laughing as another classmate tied their legs together for the three legged race. Yunjin had shiny crimson hair and silver hoop earrings that caught the light as she moved.

Winter ran down the steps, almost falling as she ran across the hall to avenge them. “Hyunsuk, wait!” she screamed. Everyone fell silent. Even the music seemed to quieten to listen in. Winter held onto Hyunsuk’s other arm. He looked away. She didn't know the expression that was in his eyes-disgust? fear?

“Winter,, I thought I told you that we're finished,” he muttered coldly.

“But, Hyunsuk-”

“Winter, just go away.”

“Hyunsuk-”

“Move, bitch!” Yunjin yelled, her voice echolating off the walls. “Are you deaf or something?”

The entire hall filled with laughter. Yunjin threw her head back with as she screeched, pleased that she had created a joke out of someone on the final day of school. Winter looked around to see every single face creased with mirth, braces and glasses glinting against the fluorescent bulbs overhead.

Laughing at her, not with her.

Winter had grabbed her bag and ran out of the building as fast as her legs had taken her. Even she was surprised at her speed.

Just like that, after three years, it was over.

...

Where had it all gone wrong? What had made Hyunsuk switch up from Winter to Yunjin after all these years?

Winter stood up, knees shaking, and stumbled her way to the bathroom mirror.

She had expressive black eyes with long eyelashes (probably the only good thing her absent father had left her), jet hair with white streaks (a result of dying her hair with Hyunsuk earlier that year) that went down to her back, and a small, petite frame which made all her clothes look massive on her. No. She may be many things, but she was NOT ugly.

Her knees gave way as she slid back down to the floor, thinking through any other possible red flags she could have unknowingly possessed.

Was it the fact that she sent him ASMR pimple popping videos to watch? (she was addicted to them and wanted him to become addicted as well)

Was it the constant rejections to going out on a school night? (she was obsessed with schoolwork and always stayed in to get it finished)

Or maybe the notes she popped into his school locker every morning? (“You got this!” “You're amazing!” “You're loved!”) (He never did acknowledge them.)

Light streamed into the bathroom from the crack at the bottom of the door as the bell sounded.

Mama and Yeri were home.

Winter didn't jump up to go and see them. Technically, they didn't know she was there because they thought she was still at the party. The thought cut through Winter like a fresh whip as the feeling of rejection hit her in a new aspect. She really didn't know how she was going to be able to handle this breakup. Without meaning to, a fresh peal of sobs reverberated throughout her body, and she curled up to contain herself.

The door to the bathroom opened. “Winter!” Mama exclaimed. “What's the matter? Are you ill?” Winter had been dreading their return, but realised she was happy to see her mum. Mama, with her round cheeks and big soft tummy. Mama, who smelt like the baby powder from the chemist that she worked at. Winter held onto Mama and allowed herself to be pulled up. She didn't let go even when Mum tried to pull away. “Okay, okay,” Mama said, rubbing Winter's back.

Yeri waddled in. I say waddled, because that's all she was able to do, what with her expecting her baby at any time now. Yeri was Mama’s younger cousin. Because she had been kicked out of her own mum’s house for so long (a tiresome and unnecessary backstory), she was also pretty much Mama's bonus daughter- she practically lived in Winter's apartment with her and Mama. It wasn't too bad, really- Yeri wasn't a nuisance, but she said offhand things sometimes. Like now.

“Looks like someone didn't get picked as Prom Queen,” she laughed. “No-let me guess, Hyunsuk dumped you?”

The silence that followed confirmed her question.

Winter sobbed harder as Mama waved Yeri away. “That was nice of you! Go away and make yourself useful-I don't care if your back hurts. Go AWAY, I said!” Yeri waddled back out, muttering to herself, while Mama hugged Winter even more tightly. “It's okay,” she soothed. “You know, sometimes bad things happen so that there can be space for happy things to take place.”

“They were all laughing at me, Mama-”

“That doesn't matter. None of them matter anymore. You're going to arts college in the autumn now, you'll be a new person, and that's all that matters.”

Winter let go of her mum at last. She stood up straight and smiled.

“Okay, Mum, I'll be happy now.”

Mum squeezed her shoulder. “There we go. That's my girl! Listen- I've bought your favourite raisin cookies from the market! Have a bath, and when you go to your room, there'll be a plate waiting for you with some milk. Now, I'm just going to prepare something for Yeri before she starts complaining!”

After Mum closed the door, Winter stopped smiling, and let her shoulders sag as far down as they could go.

...

Just as Mum had promised, there were the raisin cookies on her bedside table, golden brown discs of delight studded with juicy plump raisins. They were on her favourite plate, too- the light blue one with white bunnies around the edge. Standing next to the plate was a tall glass of milk, the glass adorned with cornflowers to match the plate.

Somehow, the thought that Mum had put into the cookies and milk made everything much worse.

Winter felt her pyjamas stick to her still-damp skin as she sat down to devour the sweet treats. She wasn't usually allowed to eat in her room (Mom wanted her room to be clean) but then she wasn't usually in this situation where she had been dumped and humiliated at school, either.

She bit into the first cookie. It was soft and chewy in all the right places, the raisins bursting to allow the sweet juice to run all over her tongue. She took a sip of the milk. Ah, that was the stuff! It mixed perfectly with the cookie and slid down her throat, making her feel bubbly and warm. Maybe, Winter thought, eating the cookie, life wouldn't be so bad after all.

She started on her second cookie as she opened her phone.

Big mistake.

On the school live feed, there was a massive picture of Hyunsuk and Yunjin, all feather boas and paper crowns and face paint. The caption read:

Hyunsuk and Nari, the School King and Queen!

The cookie in Winter’s mouth turned to cold mush. She opened the comments.

CutiePie365: I'm so glad that Hyunsuk isn't with that weirdo Winter anymore.

[Replying to CutiePie365] TwilightSparkle2007: It's such a shame that they didn't break up sooner.

RegularHuh2014: You got yourself a cool girl, Hyunsuk. Way better than Winter Kim!

WeLostTheSummer2020: Who in their right mind names their daughter Winter, anyway? Major red flag!!!

Winter scrolled through the comments, desperately looking for someone who disagreed, someone who who would defend her-

-I heard that Winter is obsessed with pimple popping ASMRs? Isn't that what psychos do?-

-Yunjin was saying that she would put weird notes in his bag-

-Seriously, we weren't safe in that school with her anymore-

-I bet she wears contact lenses as well. No real person has eyes as cute as that naturally-

It wouldn't stop.

It kept on going, endlessly, relentlessly, cruelly.

Winter threw her phone at the wall. It slid down behind her bed.

There, it was all gone.

She stuffed the rest of the cookies in her mouth, her cheeks bulging. She dribbled the milk into her full mouth, the white substance running down her face and onto her pyjamas. Her breathing grew more and more erratic as she chomped down. They weren't cookies anymore. They were Hyunsuk, they were Yunjin, they were TwilightSparkle2007.

Some of the food went down the wrong pipe. Winter coughed, and the cookie milk mush went all over her bedside table. With a defeated sob, Winter let herself collapse on the table, face stained with tears and milk and regurgitated cookie.

Last days of high school were not meant to be like this.

THE BASEBALL CAP GOD - WINTER; KIM MINJEONG

3. Whisked Roses, blühende Liebe

chapters

approx. word count: 4673

Previously on The Baseball Cap God

"It's you," the deity pointed out.

This time, she had a whole black outfit on from head to toe. Fully cloaked as the cold season draws near. Minjeong stood up and rubbed her palms together to remove the pebbles that had become stuck on her palms.

She gave the girl a nervous look. "Yeah, it's me" Minjeong confirmed.

"How did you summon for me?" was the first thing the girl asked.

Minjeong's brow furrowed as she tried to figure out what the girl meant by summoning her.

The idol's gaze darted around before returning to the girl in front of her "What? What do you mean?" Minjeong questioned.

It was an odd question, to be sure. "I didn't summon you." Minjeong clarified.

The girl lifted her cap slightly to reveal her eyes, "Really? But I heard your voice calling out to me," the girl asked then informed her of Minjeong's summons.

Minjeong was perplexed, believing she had done nothing to summon the girl. She only prayed to God because she was having second thoughts and was thinking about a lot of things in her head.

"What did you do here?" asked the older girl, her gaze rising to the orange sky.

The deity turned to face Minjeong and then gazed at Minjeong's exquisite features.

Minjeong made a contemplative face before facing the deity, "Enjoying the sunset and I blew petals of roses and prayed because of hard times, you know," she explained.

However, she was hesitant to say the final part of her sentences.

The girl in the cap's mouth opened when she heard Minjeong's explanation because she already knew how Minjeong summoned her. What she didn't understand was how Minjeong could summon a god despite being only a human.

Y/N, on the other hand, was taken aback. She was curious about Minjeong's abilities. She moved closer to Minjeong and walked in circles around her, inspecting her from head to toe.

Y/N was staring at the girl as if she'd never seen a human before. "Who are you?" she stopped and asked the idol.

Minjeong leaned back to look at the girl's face, "Winter Aespa." she said matter-of-factly.

Y/N smirked and leaned in closer to the idol. "I know," she replied with a cute smile. When their eyes locked, Minjeong made the audacious decision to get closer to her.

If the idol wanted to overstate how lost she was in the deity's eyes, she couldn't. She kept looking intently into the god's eyes, which were nearly grey in colour with a hint of blue inside and the long lashes added to the effect.

Y/N sneered at Minjeong's face and her reaction made Minjeong averted her gaze from the taller girl. "Ah of course, you know that I am Winter from Aespa!" she exclaimed, her gaze avoiding the girl's.

After Minjeong's statement, the woman with the cap simply giggled and turned to face the sun as it was setting. Y/N took a long breath in and let it out slowly while enjoying the sunset.

Minjeong tapped her on the shoulder and the deity turned to face her. "Hey," Minjeong called her.

The deity was looking down at the object the idol was holding in her hand as she attempted to give it to the deity. A rugged grey baseball cap, the one Minjeong purchased and kept in her tote bag.

"This is for you," Minjeong said, holding up the cap she had bought for the deity.

Minjeong was shy and awkward about giving something to someone she had never met before. The girl hesitantly accepted the cap, and when their fingers brushed against each other, Y/N strangely felt something.

Y/N was warped into a strange world and she received a vision. It felt as though she was flying that time. She unexpectedly sees Minjeong wandering across a field of sunflowers and the girl in front of her laughing joyfully. As the unexpected vision came to an end, Y/N returned to reality. She gave Minjeong a careful glance.

Who is she?

The god attentively studied Minjeong's eyes, "Whisked roses that you blew and was borne by the wind," the girl began to speak.

"The wind carried the scent of red roses, and you prayed to the sky and your voice called me out," the deity continued.

She inhaled deeply, "Kim Minjeong, I'm not sure who you are yet," she finally said the girl's name.

When the girl's name came out of her mouth, the idol was taken aback.

Y/N stepped closer to the idol "But I can tell you're special and we're going to cross paths more often this time now that you know how to summon me" Y/N declared.

The girl's statement surprised Minjeong, and her eyes widened in response.

She took a step back. "Ho! Yah! What exactly is this?!" She reprimanded the girl, surprised herself.

Minjeong's heart was racing, she had never heard such poetic words from anyone. It's true that when her fans complimented her, it filled her heart with affection. But this one? It felt new and felt refreshing to hear the good poetic words. As if the girl's words were infused with magic and spells.

"How- how did I summon you?!" the idol exclaimed quickly, feigning anger.

She was trying to hide the fact that she was flustered by the poetic words and the fact that they were close to the sunset view. The words made the entire situation appear romantic. Minjeong couldn't deny that it was very movie-like. Minjeong's agitated behaviour elicited a soft laugh from Y/N. She hadn't met anyone in a long time who made her feel truly good.

"It's dangerous that you can summon me, but I'm excited to see what else you can do," the girl said with a smile. She flirted a little.

"Thank you for this, but I have to go." she said, clutching the cap the idol had purchased for her.

Y/N started walking away, but Minjeong stopped her. "I have no idea what you mean, but I need to know your name," Minjeong said to the girl.

The deity looked at the desperate-looking idol "And I want to thank you for not telling anyone about how I was here weeks ago," the idol continued.

"I'm afraid that if you do tell, my fans will think I'm suicidal" Minjeong told the girl in a saddened tone.

The deity nodded, understanding Minjeong's situations.

She smiled a little "Don't worry, your secret is safe with me" the deity reassured the girl.

Y/N approached Minjeong and gently turned the girl's body by placing two hands on her shoulders.

As the sky grew darker, the deity forced the girl to face the setting sun. "Enjoy the sunset, leave this place in 12 minutes, trust me." the deity instructed.

"In count of 3, don't look back" Y/N instructed with a small smile.

She made certain the girl was standing still in her place, not looking back and focusing solely on the setting sun.

Minjeong whimpered, "Oh? Why? What are you doing?" she questioned.

"Don't look back!" the deity in the cap instructed again.

After ensuring that the idol was enjoying the sunset, Y/N vanished into thin air.

The deity teleported to somewhere else, leaving the idol all alone. Minjeong followed the girl's instructions. When she reached three, she stopped counting and turned to look behind her.

However, she was surprised to see that the girl had vanished.

The idol slammed her eyes shut and grunted angrily, "But I don't know what your name is!" she exclaimed, almost yelling.

"You've vanished into thin air again!" she exclaimed.

In Aespa's dorm

"Arghhhh, I'm so tired that I could sleep on the floor right away!" Yoo Jimin, the leader of Aespa, grunted.

The girls had just finished rehearsing for tomorrow's performance. Aespa was invited to participate in a school festival. Several other artists were also invited.

Minjeong sat down on the couch, "You're right, I want to sleep here" she said tiredly.

The girl sat properly on the couch and closed her eyes, slowly drifting off to sleep.

Aeri took Minjeong's picture, "Oh God, this kid is too cute!" Aeri spoke in hushed tones.

The other girls peeked at the phone's screen to see Minjeong's picture. Jimin cooed, "She really is cute, she looks so tired these days," she added, concerned for the girl.

Ningning concurred, "True, I hope she's doing well," she said, her love and admiration for Minjeong is strong.

School's festival day...

The students cheered loudly as they waited for their favourite idols to take the stage. "Yo! Yo! What's up everyone?! Are you excited right now?!" the festival's emcee enquired while beaming broadly.

Everyone applauded loudly. They've been anticipating this day for a long time.

The emcee cleared his throat, "Alright everyone, this is Aespa!" he yelled the name of the group to get everyone excited.

There was a lot of applause and a lot of students were happy to see Aespa perform their songs. Aespa took the stage and began performing their songs amazingly, as they always do, while everyone sang and danced along.

A deity of fate was apparently watching the group perform on stage. Her gaze was drawn to a particular idol, Kim Minjeong. The deity looked up to the sky, showing her palm to the sky and examining her nails.

"I won't let it rain today, it'll be a good day today," the deity said, her words had caused the clouds to not rain.

Suddenly, the day brightened up again. The skies cleared from being too grey in colour. It wasn't too hot outside.

When it happened, Y/N gave the sky a sweet, tight-lipped smile. "Amazing, thank you!" she thanked the sky for not raining.

Two hours had passed since the festival and Y/N's presence had caused many things to occur. Some students have found their true loves thanks to destiny, while other students have made lifelong friends as a result.

Numerous good things and unpleasant things occurred just as a result of Y/N's existence. Whether they were in her favour or not, certain things were destined to happen.

Aespa had completed their performance. The girls took a break and headed backstage. It was exhausting but it was also enjoyable. During the performance, Minjeong noticed a familiar student who was always wearing a baseball cap.

The girls were invited to enjoy the school festival. They were planning to buy some food or souvenirs from the festival. Minjeong excused herself for a moment, saying she was going to get some food and that she didn't need anyone's company.

She was walking alone in the festival, hoping to find the girl. Minjeong was disappointed that she had never learned the girl's name until today.

She also wondered why she would care so much about a stranger. Minjeong also recalled that the baseball cap girl went to this school because she had previously seen the girl wearing their uniform.

She had just completed a long distance of walking and her eyes were constantly scanning the crowd for the girl's silhouette. The idol had high expectations for the future and prayed to heaven that she would see the girl once more.

If Minjeong was willing to concede anything, it would be that she would never be able to forget the deity's eyes. Perhaps it's fate this time. This time, the world and that time are both working in the right direction.

The clear river is most likely flowing freely and without interruption. Instead of falling melancholy on the ground, the rain would fall gently on the earth.

Perhaps somewhere in the sky, in the domain of hope and destiny, a red thread is strengthening and becoming redder with each passing second. As she walked and walked through these people, Minjeong found the person she had been looking for.

Their bodies were nicely illuminated by the sun, which wasn't too hot to make them sweat. Brown leaves are falling and filling the scene. Minjeong's heart was beating steadily from happiness as her eyes locked with the deity's nearly grey eyes.

She had finally found what she was looking for. The idol was never desperate to find someone like this before. The idol noticed the girl was wearing the cap she had bought for her.

She twitched her lips into a broad, cheery smile and her gaze was drawn to the girl's face. It appeared to the idol that she had discovered a good reason to be cheery today. She found a reason to be okay.

Even though she didn't understand why she was feeling that way, she was content with the emotions. Meanwhile, for the deity, everything seemed to fall into place. It fell in the proper manner.

"You didn't summon me," Y/N said abruptly to the idol, her gaze fixed on Minjeong.

Minjeong sighed and shrugged her shoulders. "I didn't and I don't know how," she replied, her gaze fixed on the girl.

The girl smiled and nodded. "Right, you're a good singer," the deity praised sincerely.

Minjeong became a shy puppy whenever she was complimented on her talents. She tried to suppress a smile as she turned her head away out of shyness and she felt her heart flutter.

The idol faked a cough, "So, you go to this school, I suppose," Minjeong said, her gaze wandering around the festival.

Y/N smiled as she spoke. "Yes, this is where I study," she replied, her gaze fixed on Minjeong.

Minjeong felt her phone vibrate in her hand just as she was going to say something more and realised she had a call. The idol looked at the screen to see who was calling her. "Jimin unnie," and she muttered the name of the leader.

Y/N motioned for Minjeong to answer the phone and when she did, Y/N turned around to avoid bothering the girl.

Minjeong was told to return as soon as possible by Jimin over the phone because only a few things needed to be completed. The two cut off the call, and Minjeong agreed to come back because she also thought she had been gone for too long.

"Ah hey, cap student!" she called for the deity, yet to learn her name. With her brows furrowed, Y/N turned around. Her confused facial expression was strong.

Minjeong rolled her eyes in amusement, "This is why I wanna know your name," she explained her motive.

Y/N giggled, "Well then, since you asked, it's Y/N," she finally told the idol.

She smiled brightly at Minjeong "I also told you because you know how to summon me" she continued her remarks.

Minjeong made a funny expression, raised her brow, and fixed a hard gaze on the girl because she thought the girl's statements were strange and humorous.

The idol's forehead creased, "What? I told you, I don't know!" she commented, still confused by this summoning thing.

Y/N simply nodded in response to what the idols said to her, then smiled.

"Hey, Y/N, I have to leave now" Minjeong acknowledged the deity by pointing to the back with her thumb.

Now that she knew the girl's name, she could finally call her by that name. The deity nodded in agreement with Minjeong's statements and grinned when her name was spoken.

She extended her hand to let Minjeong go. "Yeah, yeah" Y/N replied.

"Can I have your number?" Minjeong shyly asked, holding out her phone.

She avoided the taller girl's gaze. "Put your phone number in, I already unlocked the phone," as she hurriedly uttered.

The action revealed Minjeong's shyness and nervousness. The worst the baseball cap girl could say is no. Although Minjeong was rushing to return to the girls, here she is, wasting another time for a phone number.

The deity glanced at the phone before looking at Minjeong, "No." the deity replied flatly.

Minjeong looked at Y/N as if she were insane, her eyes almost popping out as she blinked rapidly, her mouth slightly hanging open.

"Why?!" she asked, her voice was high pitched, shocked.

Y/N scoffed playfully, "You know how to call me, Winter," she replied, using her stage name at the end.

Minjeong grew more confused, "Oh gosh! I told you!" she argued, poor girl.

"You know and you can! With roses petals, you did!" Y/N argued too, trying to hint at the girl.

Minjeong fell silent as memories of her blowing red rose petals returned to her mind. She calmed down as she considered it, thinking about how blowing roses relates to summoning the girl.

"Woah, so we can summon the god of fate just by blowing petals of red roses?"

With a smile on her face, Minjeong's daughter inquired. Minjeong nodded like a little child with a small smile. Her daughter's jaw dropped, "Woah, eomma! Can we try?!" her daughter asked, she was enthusiastic.

After giving it some thought, Minjeong turned her attention back to her kid. She poked her daughter's nose tip. "Yes, we can try later," she responded, smiling at her daughter.

The little Minjeong shouted "Yes!" and held up both arms. "But eomma, did you ever summon her again?" the daughter queried.

Minjeong hummed to try and recall the memories as she screwed up her face in an attempt to do so. She actually did remember. She was only making those expressions to amuse her daughter.

The mother gave a finger-snap. "Oh yes! I did! A month later!" she exclaimed, her eyes widening.

Her daughter's face lit up with delight, "Good! Please tell me!" She smiled, revealing her missing tooth.

Minjeong just picked up her daughter from kindergarten. She promised her daughter that she would continue telling her about this god of fate.

She left off telling her narrative last night at the point where she unintentionally called upon the deity, and tonight she picked up where she left off—where she reconnected with the deity at a school festival.

Minjeong nodded in compliance, "Hurm! I'll tell you!" she said, admiring her daughter.

It had been a month since she had reconnected with the deity at the school festival.

For a month, Minjeong hadn't seen the girl. She occasionally thinks about the girl, though. She had to set the thought away, though, because she had work to do and needed to focus on Aespa's comeback.

So on this one random day, Minjeong saw something that reminded her of the baseball cap girl. It was Ningning getting ready for their dance practise in all-white attire and sporting a black cap.

That brought up a memory for Minjeong. She hurried to a flower shop to purchase a red rose but as luck would have it, no roses were sold while they waited for the delivery.

Minjeong gave up and went to the closest, less busy park, where she sat down on a bench.

The idol was exhausted as well. So she went into hiding at the park to clear her mind. Her gaze was fixed on the lake in front of her.

She has been sitting on the seat for two minutes, her hands tucked into her pockets as she gazes into the lake. A grandma suddenly walked over to her. The grandmother had a basket under her arm.

"Oh my- what is a beautiful lady like you doing here alone?!" she asked, grinning at the idol, in a high pitched voice.

Minjeong's gaze was drawn to the grandmother and her face lit up with recognition.

It was the same grandmother who had reassured her and fed her in the stall. The same grandmother who rescued her from the car crash.

"Oh- grandma!" she exclaimed, surprised to see the grandma again. As Minjeong adjusted her stance to grandma, the grandmother took a seat next to her.

She bowed to the elder, "Yes, I am, grandma!" the gray haired lady informed the idol.

Minjeong cocked her head towards the grandmother, her forehead wrinkled, "We met at the food stall before!" the idol attempted to remind the grandmother

The grandma returned to Minjeong with a puzzled expression "Ha! Are you certain?" she questioned the young lady.

Minjeong just nodded her head like a child and didn't say anything else.

She spoke with an accent. "Really? We met?!" Grandma inquired once more.

Minjeong sighed, "Grandma, yes. Did you already forget?" she responded with a sad tone.

The grandmother made a contemplative expression, "Oh! I got it now!" she exclaimed, almost hysterically laughing.

"I remember now, the other two grandmothers are my younger sisters!" exclaimed the elderly lady, smiling broadly.

When Minjeong looked at the grandma's face, she noted a few little differences from the twin grandma she had previously met.

The first grandma had a mole on her cheek,l but the second grandma was an exact replica of the first. Even though the second grandma had the same mole, she wore more grandma-style clothing. Her neck was also adorned with a hanging spectacle.

The grandmother she is currently speaking with has a more hunched back and more grey hair. She was dressed in a white gown with a pastel green apron over it and a cloth covering her head.

"Grandmothers are a triplet?" she exclaimed, surprised.

The elderly woman quickly nods her head and smiles sweetly. Minjeong nodded gently, creating the letter O with her mouth.

The grandma suddenly handed her a single red rose. Minjeong leaned back in surprise. "No, I can't take this grandma" she said, apologising.

She dismissively waved her hands, indicating that she couldn't accept the flowers for free. The grandmother squinted her eyes. "No! You'll need this, so take it!" the older was persuading Minjeong

Minjeong gladly accepted the rose with a little persuasion, as if there was magic in Grandma's words. She bowed, "Alright, thank you so much and it's true I need the rose," she shyly thanked the elder.

Minjeong's admiration for the rose grew as she began to feel relieved that she had obtained what she required. She held up the rose in the air, a smile crept on her face and said, "Grandma, thank you-" she turned her head to thank the grandma again.

But there was no one nearby, and the grandmother vanished into thin air.

Her mouth was slightly opened "Eh? Did she fly away?" Minjeong inquired, with amusement at the sudden absence.

She sighed exasperatedly and pushed the thoughts away, leaning back against the bench and staring at the rose.

Y/N told me that I summoned her by blowing the petals of red roses.

If I do it now, will it work?

What does she mean?

Shall I give it a try?

Thinking about Y/N reminded her of what Y/N had said to her. Minjeong was told that she is special and that they will meet more frequently.

Y/N's nearly grey eyes flashed into Minjeong's head.

She made a shaky motion with her head. "Oh? What made me think of that? "She questioned herself. Because for a brief moment, she felt she was falling in love with those stunning eyes.

Minjeong got up from the bench and moved closer to the rails while holding the rose in front of her face. Minjeong tore each petal and laid it on her hand while the cool breeze caressed her soft milky skin. She finishes removing the rose's petals and blows them off with a powerful lung blow.

The idol gently closed her eyes as she felt the petals being whisked away from her palm. In the same way as she did when she initially summoned the deity.

Dear God, let there be Y/N to walk in and enter this moment of coldness.

The roses were carried away by the same chilly breeze, flying through the air with such lightness that they escaped Minjeong's sight. The petals were lowered and touched the lake as the wind slowed. Each one of them dropped gently to the water, pushed farther away by the lake's tranquil waves.

The lake wasn't moving, the petals stopped in their tracks, and the breeze seemed to have also abruptly stopped. It wasn't noisy. The entire world appeared to be at a standstill. There was silence.

While Minjeong was unaware of this, she was conscious of how quiet her surroundings had grown. She was still closing her eyes, but when she opened them, something obscured her view of the lake.

When the idol stepped back, she noticed that someone had covered her eyes with their palm. She shifted to face the owner of the hand. When she saw Y/N, her heart raced.

Y/N stuffed her hand back into her pocket. Wearing the baseball cap as usual. "Take another look at the lake," Y/N instructed the idol.

It made the idol feel strange. Her forehead creased and her eyes narrowed as she looked at the girl. "Why?" Minjeong inquired, her gaze drawn to the deity's.

Despite the fact that Minjeong struggles to keep eye contact, that eventually became her favourite thing to do.

Y/N sneered at the girl. "Just do it, just trust me" she answered, reassuring the younger girl.

The idol sighed, rolling her eyes. "Alright, alright." she retorted, shifting back to face the lake.

"Close your eyes too. Don't peek." Y/N added, reminding the idol.

When Minjeong closed her eyes, Y/N placed her hand in front of them. The deity raised her gaze to grey sky. She did her wonder as a being with higher power. The grey colour in the sky was reduced by the deity's power and gradually changed into an orangish-purplish sky.

Even though it was impossible to view the sun close to the lake, Y/N made sure to capture the colour of the sunset in the sky. It wasn't too cold anymore. The birds emerged and flew freely through the air.

When Minjeong felt Y/N had removed her hand from her line of sight, her eyes fluttered open. She opened her eyes to see the lake, the park and almost everything else became better in view.

The idol was taken aback by how lovely the scene had become. "Oh? How? What happened?" she questioned as surprise and confusion took over.

Y/N smirked, "Everything," she answered, smiling proudly of herself.

"Winter, you seem so sad whenever we encounter and just now, I noticed you were sad too," Y/N began to speak.

Minjeong arched her brow, moved closer to the cap girl, "What do you mean?" asked the idol, giving her a quizzical look.

"Your soul is sad these days but I can't do much about it," Y/N mentioned Minjeong's apparent melancholy.

She turned her head away from the idol and stared at the stunning landscape. Minjeong's brow arched higher, "So the beauty of the world should make your heart feel better," Y/N concluded her speech.

She drew her gaze away from the deity as the idol's eyes softened. She was both flustered and shy. Minjeong was unaware that at least one person would have noticed she had been feeling down lately. "Haa~" that was all Minjeong could respond to, she was lost at words.

That's what Kim Minjeong believed, but the girls were aware of her situation.

Y/N spoke again, "Right now, with me, every scenery you look at will be more beautiful." looking at the idol softly.

Kim Minjeong was stunned, and she felt her heart pounding against her chest. She was moved and felt loved. Nobody has ever said those things to her.

After what felt like forever, Minjeong strangely feels alive. It was like a fresh water going down her throat. Everything felt so new at once. How could a stranger appreciate her in the most beautiful way possible?

Roundup: Freshest Releases

FIFTY FIFTY "Cupid”

I was pleasantly surprised about this comeback. The song is very chill and catchy. The chorus has a great melody and FF’s team did everything right with styling and choreo (just mv is a bit boring). Great song for spring.

Hwang Minhyun "Hidden Side”

No surprises here, this smooth r’n’b sound is what almost all older male idols go for, and usually end up with a rather lackluster song like “Hidden Side”. Nu’est had better tracks within this genre.

Yesung feat. Winter “Floral Sense”

I don’t like ballads that much, but this one has a beautiful instrumental with nice piano and guitar riffs. aespa’s Winter also adds a delicate texture to the harmonies.
