Nine months have passed since Team Night Flower debuted. Singing on stage, dancing, releasing tracks—every single time, they naturally hit number one on the music charts.

And just like any other time, they hit number one again. This marks their fifth consecutive chart-topper. Every time the notification for first place pops up, the members pretend to be surprised just like the first time, eventually breaking into laughter together.

“Again?”

The words slip out, though it's unclear who said them first. You'd think they'd be used to it by now, but strangely, reality always takes a moment to sink in. Every time the team's name is called— Night Flower. A name that felt somewhat awkward when they first heard it is now naturally perched at the top of the charts.

A year has passed since their debut. The waiting room is quieter than expected. Perhaps because they just returned from a hectic schedule, everyone is scattered in their seats, drained of energy. One is leaning back on the sofa, another is lying flat on the floor, and another is staring blankly at his phone screen. Amidst the silence, someone speaks up.

“How about we do a live stream to celebrate our one-year anniversary?”

It wasn't said with much force, but everyone lifts their heads.

"Oh, I like that! Let's set up the stream!"

It's a moment where no words are needed to understand the timing. With consecutive number ones for every release and their first anniversary here, it's time to at least say hello to the fans.

Once the setup is complete, the six members sit together on the waiting room sofa.

TwoTime tries to sit on the sofa, but finding no space, they settle for sitting on the armrest.

It is right at that moment, just as they are about to start the live stream.
