Only a few more chapters left before it's over. Also, back to 1st person pov.

I sat awake on the hospital bed with my phone in my hand carelessly scrolling through my social media apps. Anything will do to get my mind off my current state: stuck, hopeless, and battered, in bed.

I'm currently passing the time in wait for the girls to show up. They messaged me and said that they were coming. I smiled at all the grammar mistakes Lia made as she was typing quickly. She was probably the one being rushed out the door for making them late. I chuckle.

"What's so funny?" Joohyun asks while trying to peak unsuccessfully at my phone. I glare at him with a displeased look. He shrugs innocently.

"Lia's horrible grammar," Joohyun nods in understanding before looking down at his phone. He excuses himself out of the room to take a call.

A few minutes later the door burst open; five disheveled girls stand in the doorway and stare wide-eyed at me. I blink a few times "You just gonna stand there and stare like weird baboons?" I voice while filtering my eyes with a bored expression around the white room. Yuna is the first one to burst into tears before running over to me and lightly hugging me.

"I missed you, Nana," Yuna says while choking on her words. I bring my hand up and grab hers. I look up at her and smile. "Missed you too kiddo," She smiles while wiping her tears.

Slowly the other girls all huddle around me and ask me if I'm okay. They proceeded to tell me about all the things they were doing to find me. Mark flew in from California with Yeonjun; Minghao, BamBam, Yugyeom, and their friends helped; the guys I met before leaving for California. My heart melted at all the people I had out there looking for me.

"We all missed you, Jinah. The house felt empty without your constant judgment of our messy rooms." Lia says. We all chuckle. I can indeed be a little stickler when it comes to cleaning. It bothers me when rooms are dirty.

"Yeah, Felix and I went and put missing posters out around town just in case someone might've seen you and the people who took you," Ryujin says with a soft smile. I smirk. "You and Felix, aye," I wink. Ryujin tries to glare at me but the blush on her face wins over the fight. She goes and hides behind Lia. I laugh but quickly regret that as a painfully horrible thing erupts in my stomach. I groan while squeezing my eyes tightly closed.

"Are you okay? Should we get a nurse?" Yeji says while heading towards the door. I reach forward and grasp her arm. I take a deep breath. "I'm fine, Yej. Laughing just hurts," She nods slowly before returning to my side.

Chaeryeong pulls a chair up next to me and lays her head on the bed while looking up at me. "I'm glad you're okay, Ji. Don't get kidnapped again." She requests while sticking out her pinky figure. I smile fondly at her childlike gesture. I hook my pinky with hers and smile. "I promise," She smiles proudly.
