When the time passed and the exercise was almost over
에스쿱스(승철)
“Hey, since we’re all here, let’s go eat together. Ah, I’m really hungry today.”
Seungcheol, who was looking around the gym, spoke to Jeonghan, Mingyu, and Seoyeon.
Seoyeon was momentarily embarrassed.
I was worried that it would be okay to go along like this and that I would be stuck among the members.

“Ah… I’m fine. Enjoy your meal…!”
Although I tried to carefully refuse, Min-gyu and Seung-cheol smiled brightly and told Seo-yeon to go with them.
In the end, Seo-yeon hesitated with an embarrassed expression and nodded. At that moment, Jeong-han spoke quietly from the side.
정한
“Just go. Why are you so concerned about what others think when you’re just eating?”
At those words, Seoyeon let out a small breath and lowered her head.

The izakaya we arrived at later.
민규
"You said we were going to eat, but you came here to drink?"
The four people arrived at the restaurant. Min-gyu came in, sat down, and spoke.
Four people sit in a cozy izakaya with partitions between them and order while taking off their masks and hats.
에스쿱스(승철)
"Let's drink alcohol in moderation."
Seungcheol said, and the menus were prepared one by one.
에스쿱스(승철)
"Oh, Seoyeon doesn't drink well, should I order you a drink?"
Seungcheol said this while looking at Seoyeon, and Seoyeon felt a lump in her throat.
It seemed like they still treated me like a child and only saw me as a younger sibling.
For a moment, he showed a tearful expression, but in an instant, he changed his expression and smiled as if he was relaxed.
이서연
"I eat well.. I gained weight."
She said it with an awkward smile, and Seungcheol, who heard it, answered a little embarrassed.
에스쿱스(승철)
"Oh, really? Oh my, I'm sorry. Then drink moderately~"
Jeonghan read Seoyeon's expression for a moment and turned his head after briefly observing her face without saying anything.
I couldn't help but feel the expression of emotion that was revealed in a split second.
Jeonghan slightly lowered his head, his eyes hidden by his flowing hair, and held up a small glass of soju with his fingers.
The feeling that it was going to be fun was slowly disappearing.
정한
'Why...isn't it fun? What was I trying to do..?'
As the meal progressed, the atmosphere became more and more relaxed, and Min-gyu, slightly drunk, left the table, saying he was going to take a phone call.
민규
"Oh my, I'm drunk. Just a sec, I'll call and answer the phone."
The remaining three.
In a quiet moment, Seungcheol asked Seoyeon.
에스쿱스(승철)
“Hey, Seoyeon. Are you okay?”
Seoyeon was already in a dazed state. Her eyes were wide open and her speech was slightly slurred.
“Ah, sis… Yeah, it’s okay...”
Jeonghan also furrowed his eyebrows slightly.
I didn't know you drank this much.
At that moment, Seoyeon raised her head and suddenly shouted.
이서연
"Oppa!!!!"
에스쿱스(승철)
“Huh? Why?”
Seungcheol looked at Seoyeon in surprise and answered.
이서연
"You know, oppa....phew..."
정한
"...?"
Seoyeon exhales and begins to speak.
Jeonghan couldn't take his eyes off her because of an inexplicable sense of anxiety.
이서연
"I'm your brother Joe..."
As expected.
정한
"He said to be careful. Be careful!!!"
Jeong-han, who seemed to know what was coming out of Seo-yeon's mouth for a moment, gently grabbed her arm to stop her, then cut her off and spoke.
에스쿱스(승철)
"Huh???"
Seungcheol looked at Seoyeon and Jeonghan alternately with an uneasy feeling of confusion.
Then suddenly he smiles broadly and says:
에스쿱스(승철)
“Hey, but phew, you two look so good together? Puhahaha~”
At those words, Jeonghan's face hardened for a moment, and Seoyeon looked at Seungcheol with a blank look.
Even in that drunken state, strange emotions were clashing one by one.
