Here comes another installment of A Day in the Life of KDA, I hope it is to your liking.
Rito lets me write their characters in this way. I'm sure. I have not asked them yet, but I'm sure there's no problem. xD
At the moment you want to imagine a certain room (described in the chapter), I give you a link to help the mental picture.

On the other hand, I want to recommend the Tumblr user SUQLING, who has the best illustrations of LOL, and of KDA in particular. She draws the girls exactly as I imagine them!
Chapter 3 - For failing you I fail mayself ...
The fifteenth journalist of the day, having finished his interview, greeted the four girls who, sitting on a white and fluffy sofa, waved him goodbye. When the jovial boy had left the room, Akali gave a loud sigh and laid her head on Evelynn's legs. The woman only managed to remove her hat before the youngest one got comfortable, with her legs on the armrest of the couch.
"Comfortable?" Ahri asked her, beside Evelynn, looking at her amused.
"How many more?" the girl asked, ignoring the question.
"This was the last one... today" replied Kai'sa, with all intentions of doing the same as Akali, but on Ahri. The size of the sofa prevented it.
"Who would have thought that this would be so... monotonous…, always the same questions!" the youngest complained. "They just want to know if we sleep with someone or if we go on dates or, in the worst case, about those rumors TMZ spread, that we're fighting! Nobody asks about the music, the album or the tour."
Ahri and Evelynn shared a look of understanding. Their previous experiences in the world of music had prepared them for this. They were used to it, they simply followed the game answering the interviewers. But the youngest of the group suffered. Kai'sa simply answered them with a level of sarcasm so high that most of the interviewers didn't understand it. Besides, she always told different versions of the same thing, making all the girls have fun in some way or another.
After several hours of repetition of the same stories and answers, and of fighting fatigue, the girls were finally free. But they couldn't get up from the sofa, they were exhausted. The room was silent as dusk settle in the horizon, filling everything with an amber light that sneaked through the window. The makeup artists and stylists had retired a few minutes before, their team of managers were in the next room planned the activities for the following week.
"We are travelling to Europe on Monday, right? That means we have a free weekend?" Kai'sa asked, to no one in particular.
"Yes, Kai, we're free what's left of Saturday and all of Sunday, what are you planning to do?" Ahri asked, looking at the girl carefully. After the kiss they shared in the gym a few days ago, they hadn't talked about it again. And she wanted to know where they were in their relationship or if they had a relationship to talk about.
"I have some ideas" the purple-haired girl replied, looking thoughtfully at her tablet, where she had her personal schedule.
Concerned with that evasion, Ahri sought Evelynn's help with her eyes, but couldn't find it. The girl was tenderly caressing Akal's hair and the girl seemed to have fallen asleep on her legs. Eve's gaze traveled over the face of the young girl who rested peacefully.
Ahri also wondered what to think about that relationship. She knew about Evelynn's feelings, even though she didn't quite accept them, but she didn't know what was going on in Akali's mind and heart. After having returned with Akali that night, after the rap battle, nothing had changed. Only a few stolen glances from Evelynn here and there, but nothing else.
Ahri sighed deeply and slowly. When she came up with the idea of forming KDA, she never thought that this type of interaction between them could occur, not in this way. She was not looking for anyone, her focus was her music and she worked hard to achieve success. But then Kai'sa appeared. Not the talented girl who she had recruited for the group, but the intelligent, witty and amusing woman, who always smiled and cared for her well-being, a girl who was sometimes so devilishly innocent that she made the blonde want to protect her at all costs.
She looked at Evelynn again and thought the other girl was thinking the same as her. Almost a year ago, when KDA was nothing more than an ambitious idea, Ahri contacted the only person who would understand her vision and share her goals. She had wanted to share a project with her for some time and that seemed like the ideal opportunity, Evelynn's work ethic was unparalleled, together they would take the world of pop by surprise and would be crowned as absolute queens. She knew it.
But the group wasn't complete. Evelynn suggested Kai'sa, recently arrived in Korea, with an impressive resume behind her back. She had great references of the girl and thought that her talents would add a new artistic layer to the project they were working on. Ahri suggeted Akali, a star that emerged from the ranks of social networks, with a pop ninja style that would give the band that edge that Ahri was looking for. All these elements combined would shape an extraordinary group.
After a couple of calls, and exchange of ideas between the girls, KDA was formed.
And now here we are, so tired that we haven't moved in ten minutes, Ahri thought, amused.
"Alright girls, let's find something for dinner"
"Food?" Akali had suddenly woken up. Evelynn just laughed.
"When we come back from Europe and we can spend a few days in our house, I promise to cook something delicious for you… and abundant," Kai'sa told Akali.
"Spicy Ramyun?"
"Of course"
"Bokkie, you're the BEST," the girl said, sprawling on the couch, over Evelynn, to hug Kai'sa who tried to dodge her attempts, laughing.
The four girls ate and chatted animatedly in their favourite restaurant. Evelynn knew the owners and they always gave them an area reserved only for the girls, away from the inquisitive eyes of the public.
"You have several meetings agreed with European designers, right?" Eve asked Ahri.
"Yes, I've seen some designs that seem to be just what we look for the next shows. And a couple of designers want to see you. Can you come with me?"
"Of course, but... who is taking care of the kids?" she joked, pointing with her thumb at the other two. Then laughing, amused at the reaction of the girls.
Ahri laughed openly.
"It's the first time I see a synchronized pout."
"I'm sure Massimo didn't think I was a kid" Kai'sa countered.
"Those guys at the club, the ones you scared away from me, didn't think that either" Akali added, glancing at Evelynn.
That had an immediate effect, both stopped laughing.
Kai'sa and Akali fist bump each other in victory.
"What do you think about going to a spa tomorrow?" Kai'sa said, not letting Ahri continue the conversation.
"A day of relaxation before traveling is not a bad idea," nodded Evelynn, who already imagined herself in an extensive steam bath with aromatic essences.
The other two nodded energetically.
"Our flight leaves at eight o'clock at night, we will have all day to enjoy a total rejuvenation experience" Kai'sa told them, showing them her tablet where she had planned the day to the smallest detail.
"I know the perfect place!" Ahri exclaimed, as she was taking her cell phone and looking for one of her contacts. A couple of minutes later everything was arranged.
"They would be waiting for us tomorrow, with all the services available"
"Naisu," Kai'sa said, giving Ahri a high-five.
The girls had returned to the hotel after dinner and, once in their comfortable pajamas, were watching a movie in the living room of the penthouse they were booked in.
It was a large room with an 85-inch TV that covered almost the entire wall next to the sound system. In front of this, a series of large and comfortable sofas were arranged in various directions, all offering the best visibility of the screen.
"I think it's time to sleep," said Evelynn, standing up slowly. "Tomorrow we will have time to relax"
"Yes, you're right" said Ahri looking at her side where Kai'sa was lying, with the remote control in her possession.
"Yeah yeah, mom, I'm going to sleep," she answered, playfully. Ahri just snorted and went to her room.
Evelynn watched the interaction with a smile and then turned to see Akali sleeping peacefully at one end of the huge sofas.
What a weird habit of falling asleep anywhere, the older woman thought as she tried to wake her up.
Akali opened her eyes a little and seemed to understand what the other girl was saying. She got up and started to head for her room but when she passed near Evelynn, she took her hand and tried to take Eve with her.
"Akali, honey, where are you taking me?"
"...sleep..."
"You're half asleep, yes" the other one replied amused, allowing to be dragged by the hand.
"... Spoon… "
"W… What?"
"You are... big spoon," Akali said with a little more emphasis. The girl entered her room without another word, closing the door behind them both.
Let me know what you think!
And sorry again for the spelling and grammar errors.
