@ska.ior: There are some feelings you can confess. And there are feelings you learn to hide because too many people are watching. Winter had learned how to smile at the right time. On stage. During interviews. In front of cameras. She knew when to wave, when to laugh, when to tease Karina. She knew how to make fans scream by standing close to her. What nobody knew was that sometimes, when Karina smiled at her from across the stage, Winter forgot she was supposed to be acting. Because Winter had fallen in love with her. Not the idol. Not the leader. Not the person everyone saw through a screen. Just Karina. The girl who stole her food. The girl who complained when Winter took too long getting ready. The girl who fell asleep beside her during exhausting schedules. The girl who whispered, “Good job today.” And somehow, those three words meant more to Winter than they should have. They were close. Everyone knew that. Fans noticed every glance. Every small gesture. Every time Karina naturally reached for Winter. The members teased them. Staff smiled when they saw them together. But Winter knew the difference between fanservice and something real. And that was what scared her. Because sometimes Karina would look at her when the cameras weren't recording. And those moments didn't feel like fanservice. They felt dangerous. After one concert, Winter was sitting alone backstage. Her makeup was still on. Her hair was still styled. But she was exhausted. Karina entered the room. “You okay?” Winter nodded. “I'm fine.” Karina sat beside her. “You always say that.” “Because I am.” Karina looked at her. “You're a terrible liar.” Winter laughed. “So are you.” Karina smiled. For a few seconds, neither spoke. Then Karina quietly rested her head on Winter's shoulder. “I'm glad you're here.” Winter's heart tightened. “Where else would I be?” Karina smiled. “Don't know.” Winter stared at the floor. She wanted to say With you. Instead, she stayed quiet. A few weeks later, rumors started. Photos of Karina with another celebrity spread online. Dating rumors. Headlines. Speculation. Fans argued. The company gave the usual response. Nothing was confirmed. Nothing was denied. Winter read the comments anyway. She shouldn't have. But she did. And every cruel word hurt. Not because Karina had done anything wrong. But because Winter realized something she had been avoiding. She was jealous. Not as a bandmate. Not as a friend. As someone who wanted Karina for herself. That night, Karina found her sitting alone. “You saw the articles?” Winter nodded. “Don't worry about me.” “I am worried about you.” “Why?” Karina sat beside her. “Because you've barely talked to me all day.” Winter looked at her. “Maybe I'm tired.” “Winter.” “What?” “Look at me.” She did. Karina's eyes were gentle. “You know you can tell me anything.” Winter almost laughed. Anything? Could she tell her that every dating rumor felt like someone slowly taking something that was never hers? Could she tell her that she hated pretending not to care? Could she tell her that every time Karina was paired with someone else, she went home and reminded herself that she had no right to be hurt? Instead, Winter smiled. “I know.” Months later, during an interview, the host asked: “Which member knows you best?” Karina answered immediately. “Winter.” Winter smiled. The host laughed. “Why?” Karina looked at her. “Because she notices things I don't say.” Winter's smile froze. The cameras kept rolling. Everyone laughed. But Winter couldn't. Because Karina had no idea how much truth was hidden inside that sentence. After the interview, Winter finally asked her. “Do you really think I know you best?” Karina nodded. “Of course.” “Then what do you think I don't know?” Karina frowned. “What?” Winter shook her head. “Nothing.” Karina stared at her. “You've been strange lately.” “I'm just tired.” “You're always tired.” “That's what being an idol is.” #fypシ #au #jiminjeong #winrina #fyp
