You are Riki, you have been active as a member of ENHYPEN for almost 5 years. It is great to debut in such talented group, full of caring people and opportunities.

One thing about ENHYPEN’s schedule is that it is extremely packed and there is little to no rest between comebacks. Since your group is becoming a rising star in the industry, the company decides to push harder, with comebacks now are organized during tours. You have to travel from place to place no less than two times a day and the distance is not helping at all.

Every time they announce a new comeback, your feelings are split in half, one side excited to break through the previous milestones, the other side exhausted from the nonstop arrangement. But this time, you receive an offer to participate in the production progress, specifically choreographing. Great. You have always wanted to do this, you have always wanted to help the members and the staff reducing the amount of work they have to handle, so you accept the challenge with determination.

Unfortunately, the consequences of terrible schedules and sleep-deprivation come sooner than you expected. All of the members’ health have palpably declined, including you. It is no secret that living in such condition has left you all with detrimental effects. Just days into the comeback preparation, you begin to feel nauseous, you lose your balance more often during dance practices, and questionably sensitive and ignorant at the same time.

“Riki, what’s wrong?”

Oh— You have zoned out again, you haven’t even heard Jay’s voice until the sensation of fingers tapping on the shoulder alarmed you. He looks worried.

A part of you want to tell him you’re tired, but aren’t you all exhausted? It would be so selfish of you if you complained right? With that, you swallow your weariness, Riki has always wanted to be seen as mature so, this will probably do.

“Nothing.”

Basically a blatant lie. Everything is wrong, but the show must go on.
