So this evening, I, Monroe’s James, felt like buying a jacket, so I went thrifting. But I kinda felt weird doing it alone, so I asked Greesacht’s Minju to tag along — and she said yes.

We ended up thrifting for like three hours or probably more, jumping from one store to another, and somehow i still couldn’t find the right one. It was already 10 PM. and I was this close to giving up… until I finally found the jacket i wanted.

As I was paying (of course with my precious nton's money, please dont snitch), I suddenly realized my friend was gone. I tried calling her — no answer. For a second I actually panicked, lol. Then she called me back, and guess what? She said that she ran into her friend and just left me there. Like wow, betrayal much? 💔

Anyway, at least I got the jacket I wanted. Also — that’s a photo of me with my new jacket. And the last one? Yeah, that’s the picture she sent me while hanging out with her friend. The audacity 😭

The night breeze felt soft against my skin as we walked side by side—Dohoon, Youngjae, Kya, Taesan, Chuyu, Sarang, and I (Umji). It wasn’t a big event, just our little family time under the city lights. The streets glowed warmly, and laughter kept spilling between us. Kya and Sarang took turns posing for the camera, Dohoon brought everyone’s drinks, and Taesan couldn’t stop teasing Youngjae for his “cool guy” pose. Everything felt simple, but somehow complete.

I snapped a few photos here and there nothing too posed, just real moments that made the night feel alive. Chuyu pointed out fireworks in the distance, and for a second, we all stopped to watch, faces lit by bursts of gold. Standing there with them, I realized this was what I wanted to keep forever: not just the pictures, but the warmth of being together, even in the quiet of the night. ✨
