✨ Park

@Lim Hyunsikᵀʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Joohyun watched as Hyunsik brought their drinks and snacks to the table as she smiled at him. "Thanks for bringing it over," Joohyun said as she carefully grabbed what she ordered as she brought it to her side of the table. She picked up her fork as she started to eat - they remained mostly silent as Joohyun looked up as she had quite finished as Hyunsik mentioned that he had to meet his friend. "Ah, okay! Have fun with your friend! You're welcome." Joohyun smiled as she nodded, "Alright, it'll be your treat next time." She waved as he left just returning to finish up her cake as she was just looking at her phone.

@Lim Hyunsikᵀʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ "Of course, and you can always ask me if you need help training." Joohyun nodded as she looked at him as she chuckled a bit. "Thank you for saying that, but we don't know what will happen," Joohyun added as they entered the cafe just her ordering and then he ordered. Joohyun pulled out her wallet from her jacket pocket just pulling out her card as she paid for their drinks and cake. She nodded at him as he asked her to go find them a table. "Sure, I can do that." Joohyun smiled at him just walking off to go find a table. She found a nice spot closer to the back as she slid into one side of the booth just resting her chin in her palms as she waited for Hyunsik.

@Lim Hyunsikᵀʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Joohyun nodded as she listened to him speak. "No, I understand. I used to train alone sometimes too - but at times it is good to train with other people to get feedback or learn new things that you can't teach yourself." Joohyun said as she looked at him. "Bloom is doing well, I guess. I mean we did just debut so I mean we are doing good, I guess for a group of unknown rookies," Joohyun laughed a bit as she looked at him. Joohyun hopped in front of the cafe doors just opening the doors for him than entering after him. "Since I invited you to come with me, I pay for both of us." Joohyun nodded to him as she got into line with him. Once they got up to the counter, Joohyun smiled at the barista behind the counter. "Can I get a large passion iced tea and a slice of strawberry shortcake?" Joohyun then motioned for Hyunsik to order.

@Lim Hyunsikᵀʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Joohyun nodded as she looked over to him. "This way then." Joohyun nodded her head in a direction as she started walking. "So, uhm, how has training been for you? I hope that there are other male trainees training with you and you're not by yourself." Joohyun mumbled as she looked over to him as they made their way to the cafe. She walked next to him just keeping her hands in his hoodie pocket as she looked at him.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) *she looks around*
Yeah, now that you asked me, it's just close by
Like another 3 minutes?

@Lim Hyunsikᵀʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ "Alright," Joohyun nodded as she stuck her hands in her hoodie pocket. She eyed him as he said as the was good at keeping people's secrets. "Hm, well, I'll keep you that statement - but don't make me get you if you reveal my secret," Joohyun slightly jabbed her shoulder at him without actually hitting him just softly laughing. "I was actually just about to finish up my run and walk to a cafe nearby for breakfast. You have eaten yet, have you?" Joohyun questioned as she looked at him, "Would you like to come along?"

@Lim Hyunsikᵀʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Joohyun's expression softened as she listened to him as her body relaxed as she stood there. She returned his smile when he spoke about Taeyeon. "Yes, Tae-unnie and I are in Bloom, along with Yiren!" Joohyun smiled as she nodded to him. "I am Joohyun, but you've probably known me better as Irene. Though, you can pick what you want to call me - I answer to both, " She lightly chuckled as she smiled at him. "You must not have been at Etude that long, hm? Oh, this area, yeah, it's close to my dorm - but don't tell anymore." Joohyun winked as she put her finger to her lips on the last part, "I don't want the fans to know this place is close to our dorm. But, yeah, I run a lot to release stress and try to keep in shape." She shook her head. "It's okay, Hyunsik-ah. It's nice to meet you!" Joohyun kept her smile as her eyes slightly formed into a moon shape as she spoke.

@Lim Hyunsikᵀʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Joohyun had slowed her pace a bit to take a breather as she stretched her arms above her head. She turned down her music and had stopped singing once she felt someone tap her shoulder. She whipped her head around just stepping back from Hyunsik as she didn't quite recognize him. - as she gave him a puzzled look. "Hello," Joohyun bowed as she removed a ear-bud just turning her music volume down further as she looked at him. "I am, do you work there?" Joohyun questioned as she blinked at him.

@Lim Hyunsikᵀʳᵃᶦⁿᵉᵉ Joohyun had gone out early to run like she did almost every morning that they didn't have a schedule to do. Today, she was getting in her morning run a little later than she usually would from pressing on the snooze button too much. She hoped that not too many fans would be out while she was running. She made sure her hair was secure up into twins buns as she walked into the park just wearing a pair of black leggings light blue tee-shirt, and a white fuzzy hoodie with her black sneakers. Running for her was a release of stress from the previous day or week to start fresh. She found a quiet spot, not with a lot of people as she put in earbuds as she stretched for a couple of minutes then started her run just slipping her phone into her hoodie pocket. She kept running just keeping on an eye on things out of the corner of her eye as she ran. She was also slightly singing to herself the song that she was listening to as she ran.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) (sorry, for my late reply! i've been playing dnd with my friends!)

Joohyun nodded as she looked at him. "Yeah, I am a big scaredy-cat - I know," Joohyun mumbled as she followed him into the store. She watched look at the store in awe as she nodded. "Yeah, there is a ton of stuff here. Yiren, Taeyeon, and I were able to find all the parts to our costumes here." Joohyun said as she tried to keep up with him just decided to just walk around and wait for him to come back to her instead.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun nodded as they walked into the mall. "The circus would be fun. Like a scary clown?" Joohyun shuddered a bit. "Well I mean, I don't like clowns so it wouldn't be my first choice but you can do anything that you want to do!" Joohyun nodded to him as she frowned. "Oh, okay I guess that is true, but he is always a fun character to do." She noted

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun nodded. "Yeah, it will be super cute. That was the goal, I believe." Joohyun said as she looked over to him. Joohyun thought about costume ideas as he spoke just crossing her arms a bit. "Okay, something dark but not scary. Hmm, maybe like a skeleton? Oh, Jack Skellington from 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' would be fun!" Joohyun suggested.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) *smiles and nods*
You're most welcome. And yes, Christmas is the hardest time.
*chuckles*
alright, we'll see that..
but, i'm confident of you~

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun started out of the shop as she looked at him. "I told you, it is my treat for messing up the busking thing!" Joohyun nodded as she linked her fingers behind her back as she held the door of the shop open for him just exiting behind him. "Ah, really? I am going a the Chesire cat, Yiren is Alice, and Taeyeon-unnie is the Queen of Hearts." Joohyun noted as she glanced over to him. "Hmm, do you want to be something cute or scary?" Joohyun asked as they made their way to the mall.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) *nod my head in understanding*
That's understandable
Great! I'm happy if you are..
*look at you at what you said*
Hm..
Well, considering Christmas is a holiday and i guess you won't be back home for that
so, yeah, sure!
I could give you that much..
*chuckle and smile*
make sure you work hard after that..
*chuckles as i tease you*

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun nodded as she finished up her meal. "Alright, that is always fun," Joohyun said as she stood up just pulling out her wallet from her backpack. "I got lunch today since I didn't flubber up with the whole busking thing," Joohyun said as she walked off back to the front counter just paying for their meal. She came back standing next to the table. "So, off to the mall? I was thinking have you picked out your Halloween costume? I have, so I thought it would be fun to look for you one if you don't already have something planned?" Joohyun asked

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun nodded as she looked at him as her cheeks were full of pizza. She finished as she sipped on her water. "Yep, did you have anything particular that you want to buy at the mall or are we just looking around?" Joohyun wondered out loud as she sipped on her water. "Yeah, we should Yiren, Tzuyu, Taeyeon, and everyone else here too. This would be a cute spot for a company dinner." Joohyun nodded.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) "See, we both got to discover something about ourselves today," Joohyun said as she nodded at him. She finished her first slice just grabbing another slice just putting more sauce on it as she beamed at the word shopping. "Sure! I love shopping even if it is just window shopping." Joohyun smiled

@Yoo Kihyunᶜʰᵒʳᵉᵒᵍʳᵃᵖʰᵉʳ I chuckle when i see your blush. "Alright..well known the..so, i did heard some good rumors about you and that's how i come here today." I smile brightly as you agree to my offer and claps my hand at your agreement. "Great! Thank god that you have agree. I would embarrassed if you didn't. Anyway, welcome to the company then Yoo Kihyun though it's a bit early to say that." i said as i hold out my hand for a shake.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) *widen my eyes*
really?that's too low..
i think that's like a labour work not a salary for a job
i give that amount so that no one will leave my company..
*chuckles*

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun nodded as she chuckled a bit as she grabbed a slice of pizza, "It is always busy around here." She grabbed the sriracha sauce her slice of pizza as she ate it just nodding to him. "It is really good! Well, now I know that I like sriracha sauce on pizza." Joohyun smiled as she nodded.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun nodded as she looked at Yohio, "Of course, eat all you want!" Joohyun peered outside as she had never thought about things being busy or anything like that. "I have never really thought about things being busy, but I guess that I am just used to the city since I've lived in cities all my life," Joohyun commented as the granny brought over their pizza, a couple of plates, a bowl of ranch dip, and the bottle of sriracha sauce. "Thank you, Granny! We'll eat this well!" Joohyun bowed her head as she handed Yohio a plate.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun nodded as she looked at him. "It sounds like it would be good on pizza," She said as she nodded as she watched as the granny brought over their breadsticks and drinks. She smiled as she bowed her head to the granny. "Thank you," She said as the granny nodded just walking back to the kitchen to check on their pizza. "Yeah, I found this place after coming home from practice one day. It is a cute little place, well eat up!" She nodded as she grabbed a breadstick just biting in it.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) *Tiffany frowns at his shocked face thinking that she might have said something wrong*
Why?Is that not enough? I mean..i did considered everything
If it's too low, we can discuss about it later at my office.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun watched as the granny nodded just telling them that she'd have it out soon. "Thank you," Joohyun bowed as she made her way to a table just sitting down across from Yohio. "I haven't had it on pizza, but I love it on other stuff," Joohyun said as she nodded at him.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun nodded as she looked over. "And, there will be more people in the future. It might just take a little while for them to appear!" Joohyun nodded as she entered the pizza place. "Thank you," She said as he held the door open for her. She smiled at the granny working the counter. "Hi, granny! One kimchi and seaweed pizza, and a small order of breadsticks! Water for me. What do you want to drink, Yohio?" Joohyun looked back at him as she was making her way to a table.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun sighed as she nodded just keeping her hands in her jacket's pockets. She moved out of the way just going back to walking beside him just taking them to a pizza place. "No, it is okay. It is good to talk about these things so that you can start maybe healing or understanding how you feel." Joohyun mumbled as they walked. "I am sorry if I upset you," Joohyun said as she nodded. "Alright, the pizza place is just up this block here," Joohyun answered.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Tiffany nods in agreement. "Yeah, it will." She is surprised at his question and chuckles. "Hmm, how do i say this? I usually pay according to the amount of what the person wanted. But i could say the minimum pay is around and equal to 50 dollar? But, you could ask any amount that you want. And you also get royalties from the song you wrote."

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun crossed her arms as she listened to him speak as she stopped walking just standing in front of him. "I know that face to face and cyberbullying are different to some people, but I was picked on as a kid - everyone goes through some type of bullying in their life - the effects are the same whether it be online or in real life." She said as she shook her head. "Hey! There are a lot of people who care about and would be so upset if you passed away - which is another thing I'll mom you about or we need to sit down and talk about. Think about your parents, your sister, Yiren, Tzuyu, Taeyeon, CEO Young, Seohyun, myself, and everyone else at the company would miss you! Even your cosplay friends would miss you!" Joohyun said a bit more harshly than she wanted to. "I am sorry if I sounded harsh then, but I want you to understand that there are people around you that don't feel that way about you!" Joohyun nodded.

@Yohio Rehn-Eiresˢᵒⁿᵍʷʳᶦᵗᵉʳ(H) Joohyun stayed silent as they walked just settling her hands in her jacket pockets. "I am sorry that people called you all those names. You didn't deserve any of that and no one does!" Joohyun said, "I really hate bullies." Joohyun sighed as adults could just be as worse as teenagers or anyone else. "I know the feeling since you know we get hate as well being idols from random people all around the world." Joohyun said, "But just know that the people that really care about you and that you should keep in your life don't think that about you."
