158 – I am 17 years old (1)
After the end of the year, 2024.
I turned 17.
“Your sister is a saint?”
“Ugh, high school student~”
“Ah.”
And naturally, the 05s members.
Sera, Chaerin, and Seoyoon have become adults.
“I really can’t believe it.”
In other words, Ye-eun and I were the only minors in Saven, and our members, who had just finished the awards ceremony at the beginning of the year, were having a party in the dorm.
ㅡTa-da!
Nominally, it is a grand commemoration, but seeing as they decorated the living room with lots of roses and drank cocktails to celebrate, they must have been excited about becoming an adult.
Hana gives you a cup.
“Dohee and Yeeun drink non-alcoholic drinks here~”
And then there’s Harang, who is making a fuss.
“Ha, the taste of an adult. Babies won’t know.”
‘I don’t know what. In my previous life, my drinking capacity was 2 bottles of soju.’
The members filled their wine glasses with cocktails and drank them, but their faces soon turned red.
Even Chaerin was a little drunk.
“hehehe, I guess this is why artists drink. Dohee doesn’t know, hehehe.”
Ugh…
“I went crazy after drinking a cocktail.”
“Dohee want to drink too? Ugh~ No baby~”
Even older sister Sarah clings to her as if she can’t control her body.
“Ah… I’m dizzy… Uh, Dohee’s…? Dohee, should I take a love shot with you…?”
“Don’t act drunk.”
“Hmph…”
Of course, I was not one to give in to teasing like this.
My mental age is that of an adult.
Ye-eun is probably the only minor who is actually a minor.
I looked at her older sister, Ye-eun, who was sitting next to her.
“Huh…? Idohi!”
Park Ye-eun’s cheeks turn red after drinking a non-alcoholic cocktail.
“…You’re a freshman in high school! I’m a sophomore! Got it…!?”
“What, you high school student?”
“You are a freshman in high school!”
It’s just ridiculous.
“So Dohee, are you going to high school?”
Snack, eating Caprese Seoyun asked me if Yeeun suddenly remembered what her sister said.
“I don’t know, not yet.”
I also picked up some snacks and ate them.
Now that I think about it, dishes like caprese are simple and easy to make.
I wonder if I could cook something like this at least once before we part ways…
“It’s January and yet? You originally said you would take the qualification exam.”
“Oh, that’s right… I probably talked to the team leader and my mom. I decided to go see the team leader with my mom tomorrow morning.”
“Tomorrow? Is there a break?”
“Uh, I’m taking a break.”
As they said, at the end of the year-end and beginning-of-the-year award ceremonies, we received a special vacation of about two days ahead of our final schedule.
Of course, rather than taking a break, I had to take care of personal matters that had been left behind in the meantime.
But tonight, after drinking and hanging out like this, I feel like something is going on.
‘Instead, I won’t be able to rest during the Lunar New Year holiday when I really need to rest.’
I had a full schedule at that time.
“But Dohee, I liked going to high school. Those are all memories.”
Hana spoke to me seriously, just like her mother would say.
“Yes, I’ll think about it.”
Of course, I plan to take the qualification exam.
Still, looking at the conversation between my mother and team leader Sohyeon when I was taking the middle school qualification exam last year, it seems like they are planning to send me to high school…
I think we will have to talk tomorrow to find out whether there is a need to go to school and invest 3 years of educational background that can easily be passed by just passing the GED.
“But if you go, will Dohee also want to go?”
Harang spoke while drinking her drink.
“Yegomyeon, our school…? Same uniform…?”
“Sera, you’re graduating anyway.”
“Should I kneel for a year…?”
“Ha~ If I went to the same high school as Lee Do-hee, I would always make fun of him. It’s a shame that we are 3 years older than him~”
“What are you teasing me with? The average score on the midterm exam was 49. Poor Kim Seo-yoon.”
I started to find out when I narrowly passed the grade cutoff point set by the company every time.
“High school exams are much harder!? You middle school student?”
“Yes~ I got one wrong on last year’s CSAT and mock exam combined~”
“If you study well, that’s all!?”
Harang, who took the CSAT the year before last, joined because her older sister was stabbed.
“That’s right! The field is different! You don’t know the tension on the field!?”
“Yes~ Even if I make a mistake, I think I will go to Korea University~”
“I really turn off the alarm the day before his college entrance exam.”
I hope I become an adult quickly.
Image of a minor. There are so many things I can’t do because of my legal age.
‘I want to have a drink…’
“So, what are you all going to do tomorrow?”
Anyway, the accommodation was full of tension as we all laughed and talked together.
The members began making plans for their sweet vacation.
“I think I have to see mom and dad tomorrow. Dohee, should I go with you…?”
“Huh? Why am I going there?”
“Just…”
For most of the members, meeting family was a priority during their vacation.
“Seoyunseu is going to Busan?”
“Oh, I bought a train ticket. I have to go to my parents’ house. They say that if I come alone, the whole family will gather. It’s far away, so it’s difficult unless it’s on vacation~”
“Gulkun, then, do you want to eat malatang for lunch tomorrow? Who wants to eat lunch tomorrow?”
Why do women, including Harang, like malatang so much?
It’s still not to my taste.
“Really? Yes! Let’s all eat together tomorrow! Kwon Hana shoots!”
“I like it too…! I definitely want to go…!”
“hehehe, sis, that’s the law. hehehehe.”
“But Harang, is Chae-rin drunk?”
“Leave it alone~ I’m happy there’s no nagging today~”
The members seemed to have confirmed the arrangement for tomorrow’s lunch.
“But you know that I can’t have lunch with my mom starting tomorrow morning when I go see the Top East team leader, right?”
“Then you go to the marathon without Dohee?”
“Okay then~”
If we don’t have plans tomorrow, we’ll at least have a meal together.
There is no choice.
It’s a little disappointing, but whatever.
“So everyone is staying at home for two days starting tomorrow?”
“I guess so. Two days is short, and it’s best to stay at home rather than travel around.”
“Oh, then I’ll stay for a while. I need to pack my bags.”
“Why?”
“I need to organize it in advance. There are too many clothes.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
The members who were chatting happily were momentarily depressed when Harang said that they should pack their bags.
“Okay, I guess I’ll have to take it out first.”
“Yes.”
Because it was a big deal that I would have to vacate this accommodation after just 3 months.
“That’s it! Let’s do it!”
“Who are we~? The target is Idol Save! Ta-da!”
The members laughed and talked again.
Once something came into my mind, I couldn’t forget it.
And not long after that, the sound of sniffling was heard.
Ye-eun was crying.
“Hey, he’s crying, he’s crying!”
“Yeeun is crying~?”
“Stop teasing Ye-eun!”
Hana said, hugging her older sister and patting her.
“Ye-eun, shall we all play together tomorrow?”
Ye-eun nods her head with her red eyes.
“Then then~ I’ll just cancel my ticket and go to Busan next time. Anyway, I’ll have a lot of vacation time in 3 months, so let’s just have fun!”
“Okay! Let’s quickly plan what to do tomorrow!”
Ye-eun laughed like an idiot, swallowing her snot as if she was ashamed of crying and then laughing.
“Let’s all go to the amusement park together! I want to go to the amusement park!”
“If we go, there will be a lot of crowds…? hahahaha, Gong Chae-rin is a real superstar…”
“You can just hide it and go. But I guess Chae-rin is really drunk?”
The members quickly scrapped their vacation plans and started thinking about how to have fun.
The problem is that I have to have a meeting tomorrow to discuss school issues.
“But… But you know I can’t play tomorrow…? I have to see the team leader tomorrow…”
“Ha~ Lee Do-hee’s empathy is real.”
“Are you T?”
The sound of crying is heard again little by little.

So there was nothing I could do.
“Now that I think about it, if I see it early tomorrow morning and do well, I’ll have free time starting from lunch, right?”
“Hey! Let’s make a schedule quickly! Quickly choose the place you want to go tomorrow!”
‘Doya… I’ll go see you next time…’
* * *
And the first day of vacation.
Early in the morning, I prepared to leave the dorm.
“Uh, are you leaving now?”
“Yes, I heard that mom arrived.”
It’s still time for all the members to sleep soundly.
Even after drinking, Hana immediately got up from the sofa and approached the front door.
“Okay, I’ll have a nice talk with mom~”
“Okay.”
“Let’s hug my youngest sister~”
“Oh, why are you like this?”
My sister, in fact, most of the members seemed to have become emotional after the awards ceremony, but I was a little embarrassed to be hugged, so I quickly left the front door.
“I’ll come for lunch.”
“Grain~”
And in front of the accommodation where I ran away.
As soon as I left the apartment entrance, I was hugged from behind.
“My daughter!”
To Mom.
“Wow, I was surprised!”
“Why are you surprised, you’re a mom~?”
“No, I suddenly thought it was a sasaeng fan hugging me.”
My mother looked even more surprised at my words.
“What, is there such a sasaeng?”
“No, I don’t have one…”
I haven’t experienced it yet, but I heard it’s quite frequent.
Anyway, I met my mom after a long time and she had a sad expression on her face and kept patting my butt.
“Aww, my daughter looked so pretty at the awards ceremony the day before yesterday.”
“I am a legend every day.”
“Yes, my mom gave me very pretty genes, really.”
“Oh, okay.”
“Doah is getting prettier day by day these days? It’s thanks to her mom~”
It is usually said that a daughter takes after her father, but she was positive when she saw her mother looking in a good mood.
So my mom patted my butt without stopping until we got to her car parked nearby.
It’s been a long time since we last met and I’ve grown fond of you, so I guess you should understand this arrangement.
“But mom, you bought a new car?”
My mother said calmly as she started the car.
“Yes, I bought it with my daughter’s money.”
Oh, right?
For some reason, it was a car I had never seen before.
Oh, just sleep.
“My money?”
“Yes, why?”
“No…”
Mom glanced at me.
“Is it really a waste of money just because Mom spent some money?”
Is it really like that in our house?
A celebrity makes money, but her family spends it extravagantly.
“No, it’s not like that. Of course, I feel good when my mom uses it… But it’s still a lot of money, so you should at least tell me.”
Mom looked angry.
“Do you want your money? Ugh, your dad’s car was old so I bought a new one. Why can’t you trust your mom like that? When I told her that I replaced her mom’s car while making a lot of money, her eyes widened and she was so excited…”
“No, that’s not it. I didn’t tell you, but you’d be surprised if I told you I bought it with my own money. Do you think I’d tell you not to use it?”
“Naughty daughter.”
“No. Just tell me.”
“Bad daughter.”
“No, I really want to buy my mom a house…”
“Really? Then, should Mom move?”
“Eh?”
“Doah is growing up these days, so I wanted to decorate her room pretty, and it worked out well. I couldn’t do it because you hated it so much, but I have to decorate Doa’s room like a princess~”
“Uh oh…”
“I’m sure Dad will be very happy~ He’s looking forward to seeing his daughter~”
“…Let’s go see it together next vacation.”
“Really? Mom, it’s just a joke.”
“…No, it’s money I earn to use in times like this…”
“Our princess is so kind~ Shall we kiss mommy?”
“Uh oh…”
On the way to the Top East headquarters, I had a little luck.
“But Mom, if you completely transfer my account to me now…”
“Use it, not until you’re an adult.”
“Oh why?”
“I think you will end up ruining your investment.”
“…Gasp.”
“Even when you grow up, ask your mom for permission to spend money.”
On the way to the Top East headquarters, I once again got lucky.
“But Mom.”
“I said it wouldn’t work.”
“No, not that one.”
“Then what?”
I gathered my chest and held it out towards her mother.
“How do you feel?”
“……”
“I’m 70D now?”
“……”
“Ha, I wonder if Mozart felt this way when he saw Salieri.”
Mom drove quietly.
“We were once jealous rivals, but soon we became incomparable… Ha, the summit is lonely.”
Mom stopped the car on the shoulder of her road.
“You get down.”
“Oh why?”
“You are not my daughter.”
“Then whose daughter am I?”
“You are not my daughter.”
It was always fun to reunite with my mom after a long time.
“Still, I’m glad that her face resembles her mother~”
“Naughty daughter.”
“She’s still pretty, right?”
“Bad daughter.”
HAHAHAHA I missed this dynamic
