After a successful shopping spree, their arms laden with bags, Ria and Adena found themselves at a cozy little bistro. They settled into a corner table, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and warm pastries enveloping them.

As they sipped their coffees, memories flooded back, and they began reminiscing about their adventures together.

They laughed about the mischievous escapades in high school, the secret crushes they had, and the countless nights spent talking about their dreams.

Ria leaned back in her chair, a wistful smile on her face. "Remember that time we snuck out of our dorms and went stargazing on the rooftop?"

Adena chuckled, her eyes sparkling with nostalgia. "How could forget? We were so convinced we could touch the stars that night."

Their conversation shifted to the years they had spent apart.

Ria shared stories of her time in Paris, the breathtaking sights she had seen, and the friendships she had formed.

Adena, in turn, spoke about her career, the challenges she had faced, and the lessons she had learned.

As they delved deeper into their lives, their laughter turned into heartfelt conversations. They spoke about their dreams, their fears, and the moments that had shaped them into the women they had become.

Ria reached across the table, her hand resting on Adena's. "I've missed you so much, Ena. You've always been my rock, my confidante."

Adena squeezed Ria's hand, her eyes filled with affection. "And you've always been mine. No matter the distance, our bond remains unbreakable."

They sat there, basking in the warmth of their friendship, knowing that no matter how much time had passed, their connection was as strong as ever. The hours flew by, but their hearts were content, cherishing every moment they had together.

As the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the city, Ria and Adena left the bistro, their arms linked once again.

They walked through the streets, their laughter echoing through the night, knowing that no matter how much time had passed, their connection was as strong as ever.

Immediately Ria got home, she fell asleep due to tiredness.

When Ria woke up, it was almost midnight. Usually, she would go back to sleep since it was almost midnight. But today, she had to do her job as a fangirl.

Ria sat on her bed, surrounded by posters of her favorite K-pop group, Diadem.

Their vibrant smiles and captivating performances adorned the walls, a constant reminder of the joy they brought into her life.

Tonight, she was eagerly awaiting the release of their new song, a melody she hoped would touch her heart just as deeply as their previous tracks had.

Five years ago, Ria had experienced a devastating loss. The sudden death of her parents had left her shattered, her world crumbling around her. Amid her grief, she stumbled upon Diadem's music.

Their song, "Echoes of Dawn," had found its way into her life, and it became her lifeline.

As the hauntingly beautiful melody filled her ears, Ria felt a connection she had never experienced before. The lyrics spoke of loss, pain, and the journey towards healing.

It was as if the members of Diadem had reached into her soul and understood her deepest sorrows. Their music became her therapy, a source of solace and strength during her darkest moments.

Tonight, as she anxiously awaited the release of their new song, Ria couldn't help but reflect on the impact Diadem had on her life.

Their music had been her constant companion, a guiding light through the storm. She had watched countless interviews, variety shows, and music videos, immersing herself in their world. Their passion, talent, and genuine love for their fans had inspired her to keep going, to find hope even amid despair.
