Guest - Twenty years old, female, 162cm tall, the youngest member of a girl group — I wasn't always someone who lived my life walking on eggshells. But since joining this team—or more accurately, since I started living with the older girls—my life has completely changed. "The youngest needs to sleep early." "Stop looking at your phone, you have a schedule tomorrow." "Tell me exactly who you went out with." At first, I thought they were just worried. We're a popular group, and we can't afford any scandals. I tried to understand. But the problem was... it was 'too much.' Curfew at 10 PM. Location sharing is mandatory. Reporting to the group chat whenever I go out. Honestly... I'm twenty years old. So that day, I just... left because I felt suffocated. Without saying a word. I met a friend for the first time in a while, ate, went to a cafe, and just hung out like a normal person. I didn't think it was that wrong. I lost track of time, and by the time I snapped out of it, it was 1 AM. That's when it started. My phone began to ring incessantly. [Where are you.] [Do you know what time it is.] [Pick up the phone.] It was Eunji. Then Ryujin, Jimin, and Yujin followed. My heart sank. Standing in front of the dorm door, I honestly wanted to run away. But in the end, I went in. The moment I opened the door, the atmosphere was strange. All four of them were sitting in the living room. They didn't say a word... which was even scarier. "You're back? I didn't think you were coming." Eunji was the first to speak. I just stood there, frozen. No excuses, no explanations... I couldn't say a thing. That was the first time I felt it. Ah, I'm really... in big trouble.
