Of Friendship & Sweet Romance - Chapter 3

Chapter 3

After a day of rehearsals and vocal trainings, Elise, Tiffany, and Chriz were finally released at 6.30pm in the evening.

Their faces seems to look more sour than the green lime. They heaved a big sigh as they sat on the chair at the cafeteria.

“Anything went well?” Elise asked, worried about her dongsaengs.

Chriz simply replied.

And even Tiffany had to agree with what Chriz said previously.

They heaved a big sigh again, bigger than the previous.

Even Tiffany, the one who has always been the most cheerful one, lost all her will-power at that point of time.

" I really feel like giving up at this point, why is everyone so mean to us?? “ Chriz stated, on the verge of tears.

“Chriz darling, nothing is wrong, we just need some practice, then it’ll be perfect. Trust me!” Tiffany patted Chriz’s shoulder as an encouragement..

“Tiffany is right. We need and totally deserve some practice. We just didn’t have the confidence we had like the last time we had on auditions.”

Chriz looked at her unnies and tried to stop her tears.

“Girls! Let’s go back to your dorm to have shower. We’ll have dinner soon!” The manager unnie sounded as she hugged the girls from behind.

Upon arrival at the restaurant’s VIP room, both groups exchanged greetings with a formal bow.

“I’m so sorry that we’re late.” Manager unnie apologized.

Elise whispered to Manager unnie “Unnie-ah, aren’t we gonna have our dinner by just ourselves?”

“Of course not. We’re having dinner with SHINee and their manager tonight.”

Something came through Elise’s mind, a bad ‘something’.

They bowed to SHINee and their manager and took their seat. Tiffany had the seat right beside Taemin and Elise took the seat beside Onew, which makes them shy plus extremely nervous after what had happened that afternoon while they were at the practice, as for Chriz, she had a very special place, that is right in front of Jonghyun. Their feet slightly touched each other and Chriz was reminded of Jonghyun’s remark earlier in the afternoon. Key and Minho tried to send an eye-signal to the girls to tell them to make themselves comfortable, but they were too shy to notice their sunbaenim’s eye language.

Seeing Jonghyun’s face makes Chriz feel even more intimidated. She couldn’t take it anymore and tears welled up in her eyes. Elise and Tiffany, saw Chriz’s emotions stirring up within her again, and quickly asked for permission from their manager unnie to get Chriz out the room for a short while.

“Chriz, what’s wrong? Are you unwell?” Elise asked, feeling worried for her dongsaeng.

“No… I’m just… being reminded of my practice with Jjong oppa this afternoon.”

“Chriz, you really can’t get that dance step right?” Tiffany asked.

“Yeah…”

“Let’s sneak out tonight!” Tiffany chuckled.

Elise goes in the restaurant. “I’m sorry, I think Chriz is not feeling good right now, manager unnie, can we send her home?”

“Oh, is that so? Take her home then, ask her to have a good rest.”

“Alright then. Thanks unnie. I’m so sorry that we are not able to join our sunbaenims for tonight’s dinner.” Elise bowed and left the room.

After the dinner, SHINee got home and took a quick rest while chatting with each other.

“Hey, Onew hyung. How’s your practice with Elise?” Key asked

“Huh? She gets the notes wrong almost all the time. I have doubts about her talents.”

“Is that so hyung? But she just didn’t look like one… How about you, Jonghyun hyung?”

“With that Chriz you mean? I was thinking of how she managed to pass the auditions with her dancing like that. Taemin-ah, how’s the girl who had the same name with the member of SNSD?”

“It’s Tiffany, hyung! She? I don’t know if I’m the one wrong or her, her fingers just keeps on crashing into mine! That’s REALLY annoying I tell you. She’s got long fingernails…OUCH!” Taemin answered, feeling pissed off.

Minho who had been playing with the laptop, sees his mobile phone vibrating. He read the text message received on his mobile phone.

“Hyung!”

“Ah! Minho-ah…. Let me guess! Manager hyung asks us to buy late night snacks again right?” Jonghyun raised one of his eye brows having said that.

Minho nodded, “Bingo!!”

The boys could do nothing but grab their jackets and set off to get the late night snacks.

Within 30 minutes, they had a bag full of snacks and headed straight to the company.

“Hyung, here are the snacks” Minho said while handing the snacks to the manager.

“Thanks boys! You guys really know what’s my ultimate favourite! Here’s the money.”

“How can we not know? We buy that almost everyday.” Key whispered.

“Do you guys want to eat too? You guys are welcome to come and join me if you want, but if you are not eating, better go to bed now! You guys still have trainings and practices tomorrow.”

“Alright hyung, anyonghi kyeseyo!”

The boys leaves the room and headed back to their dorm. They went passed the practice room on the way to the exit.

“Hyung, did your hear music playing? I think nobody should be here at night.” Taemin asked.

They nodded, and tried to “detect” where the music came from.

“Hey, the practice room’s light is on. Who could it be?” Jonghyun asked as he goes closer quietly and saw…
