The night had already stretched on for three dazzling hours, performances that left the crowd breathless, awards called one after another. You sat between Riki and Jungwon, nudging Riki every now and then just to tease him about how fried his blond hair looked under the stage lights.

Enhypen was expected to take home the Daesang, an award BTS had proudly held for seven straight years at the MAMA Awards.

After six relentless years since debut, Enhypen had finally announced their break. Everyone was drained, every member worn thin… but the unwavering strength of Engenes had carried them through one last push.

As the ads rolled, your head began to dip. You didn’t even notice it brushing against Niki’s shoulder until he tapped your knee with the tips of his fingers.

“Daesang’s up next.”

“Enhypen.”

The single word, your group’s name, hit you like a shockwave the moment it left the host’s mouth. Every sleepless night, every performance, every sacrifice… the fans, your family, your brothers beside you. It had all led to this moment.

Jungwon spoke first, his voice trembling through tears. Sunoo, standing next to you, was already crying openly.

When Jungwon stepped aside, he turned toward you, welcoming you forward. The only female member, the one chosen to speak next.

And suddenly, the whole arena seemed to fall silent, waiting for your words.
