Moonlit Confessions

As the night wore on, the group's laughter and chatter only grew louder, their apartment floor numbers becoming more jumbled as they played 아파트. Chaeryeong stumbled over the beat, and Lia giggled as she handed over her bottle. "You're such a lightweight, Chaeryeong!" Lia teased, making Chaeryeong blush. The teasing continued, with Yuna playfully splashing soju on Yeji's arm, making her shriek in mock outrage. Ryujin chimed in, pretending to scold Yuna for her mischief. The group's dynamic was carefree and playful, but beneath the surface, Ryujin and Yeji's eyes kept meeting, their gazes holding a secret understanding. As the game reached its peak, Yuna grinned slyly and proposed a twist: "Let’s play 네가 해봤을지도 몰라 — ‘Maybe You’ve Done This’." The group exchanged intrigued glances. It was like truth or dare, but instead of asking questions or giving dares, players said, "Maybe you’ve…" followed by something spicy or risky. If anyone had, they had to drink — no explanations required. Yeji and Ryujin glanced at each other, already knowing the game was about to get dangerous. They had played this game before, but never with such a close-knit group. The stakes were higher now, and the tension was palpable. Yuna started, a mischievous glint in her eye. "Maybe you've kissed someone in a hidden alleyway?" She looked around the circle, her gaze lingering on Ryujin and Yeji. Chaeryeong's eyes widened, and she took a hasty swig of soju. Yuna chuckled and turned to the next person. The game continued, with each person taking turns saying "Maybe you've…" and watching their friends' reactions. When it was Lia's turn, she said, "Maybe you've gone on a secret date with someone?" Lia's eyes flicked to Ryujin and Yeji, who exchanged a quick, tense glance. As the game progressed, the questions grew bolder. When it was Chaeryeong's turn, she said, "Maybe you've had a crush on a friend?" Chaeryeong's gaze landed on Yeji, who raised an eyebrow and took a sip of her drink. Yeji shot back, her voice playful, "Maybe you've had a secret crush on your group leader?" Chaeryeong's face flushed, and she hastily drank. The circle narrowed, and soon it was Ryujin's turn. She looked around, her eyes sparkling. "Maybe you've had a one-night stand?" The group gasped, and Lia quickly drank. Lia teased, her voice husky, "Maybe you've been in a long-distance relationship?" Yuna's eyes widened, and she pretended to be shocked, taking a sip of soju. The game continued, the questions growing increasingly personal. When it was finally Yeji's turn, she glanced at Ryujin before saying, her voice steady, "Maybe you've had feelings for someone in this group that you couldn't ignore?" The air seemed to vibrate with tension as all eyes turned to Ryujin. Ryujin's smile faltered for a moment, then she shrugged and took a sip of soju. But it was too late; the damage was done. The group watched with bated breath, the unspoken understanding between Ryujin and Yeji crackling like electricity. The game had reached a point of no return. The questions were getting too real, and the secrets were starting to unravel. Who would be the next to reveal a hidden truth, and how would the group react? The night had only just begun, and the moon was still shining bright.
