well now that im back at my hotel, let me address this:

overall, I believe there was a serious miscommunication issue between the both of us that could've been resolved sooner.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

you always left with other friends, so I assumed you didnt want to interact with us? almost every day, you had met with other friends and we didnt have the time to do what we had planned to together. respectfully, I have no idea what attitude you're talking about

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

atp I'd seem some twts that felt directed towards me, like attached, so I slowly stopped interacting. when her GO items arrived, I sent them out per usual, and then we didnt interact again. I thought we had left the interaction there.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

-to the staff, so I say 3. I decided that I'd call her over and ask the staff if its alright when I see her. she ends up around 2 rows behind us, completely on the opposite end as us. she doesn't see us at all and the staff was running around too much, so I let it go.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

we meet at a dunkin by our gate, and I decide not to go up to her as I thought she left early for a reason or didnt want to see us? after she messaged on Insta asking if she did something wrong, in which i responded with no. we talked on and off until early sept.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

from here I have no clue what happened, but my mom caught up to us. I asked where Sylvia was, and she had no clue either. we get to the section and I am constantly looking for sylvia, as the staff is asking how many are in our groups. I cant see her at all by the time we get-

its basically a free for all to go up a flight of stairs. everyone's pushing. I grabbed onto star's hand, and told her to grab Sylvia and my mom, but we were being shoved too hard. we gave up and thought we would meet up at the top of the stairs. my mom and sylvia were left.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

sylvia is on the opposite end from me, 2 people away in a tight space, so I couldn't really interact with her. the concert went fine, I thought we all had a pretty good time. now send off queuing is where things go terrible.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

-videos and have us all share, but it was still awkward so we gave up. now its the next day. we queued for our VIP numbers together and returned after check in. we get ready together and line up together. we enter and find our spots. we are in a line, 1 row from barricade.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

-next door to the venue. less than 5 minutes walking. we ended up meeting back at the hotel later that night, all gathered in the living room and sharing videos. sylvia is across the room and on her phone, but not really interacting with me and star. we try to mention our-

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

the show. after, I call star as I thought she would be with sylvia, since their seats are together. star is alone, and lost once more. we ended up meeting her outside, and she mentions that sylvia exited with her previous friends, so we go back to our hotel, which was DIRECTLY-

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

so me, star, and my mom line up together. as we get inside, star is confused on where her section is. I told her the direction, but couldn't walk her since it would've taken too long, and I would be late for the show to start. star finds her way, and everyone is enjoying-

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

- the arena well. I had planned on doing some preconcert activities with my mom, but star tagged along. sylvia decided to go with other friends that were attending. eventually its time to line up for the doors to open, and we really haven't seen sylvia since.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

-or the same as online on tm. star and sylvia go together, and the ticket sylvia gets ends up being right next to star. a complete coincidence. they are both on the exact opposite side of the stadium as me and my mom, so I recommended that they go together, as none of us know-

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

next is August 10th, the first chicago day. earlier in the morning, star has a friend buy her a random seat on tm. tm wasn't working for Sylvia, so I recommend she went to the box office to get a ticket for day 1. I have done this for other shows, so I know that its cheaper-

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

-just still a little awkward in the group, but we are all introverts so I shake it off. we got back, chilled, and then went to get kbbq between me, star, and Sylvia. Sylvia was on her phone a lot so I didnt really know what to say during dinner. n

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

we found some pcs in this store, giggled a bit, and moved on to another one by subway, closer to the bean. here we all are shopping individually, and meet to do pulls after checkout. we then go to the bean and take pictures together, I thought everything was going fairly smooth-

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

- at the menu, we had lost Sylvia. we were confused as the shop was fairly small. we assume she must be nearby, and get our orders in. she ends up being in this upper area that I didnt notice. we finish cupsleeve activities and go to a kpop store nearby.

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

- 1st, we hit the merch pop up, where everything was chill, we bought merch, traded, and then moved on. I didnt feel any type of uncomfortable with our group. next, we went to a cupsleeve that Sylvia recommended. Sylvia entered first, and as the other three of us were looking-

[mayah | #1 SHABOOM DEFENDER @only4mingki]

-to each other. I was unfamiliar with Sylvia at the time, and I have trouble keeping up convos with new people. we got our Uber, arrived at the hotel, and just chilled the rest of the day. on the 9th, we had a very full schedule-
