"C-chan, that doll looks like m-me-"

"No baby. Calm down. I'm here, okay? Nobody will hurt you."

Chan took you back to your room. He embraced you, bringing you deeper into his arms. No, he couldn't leave you anymore. He must be here around you.

"I'll stay here, is it okay?"

You didn't expect to live with him so soon. But there was no other choice, you knew you had to be together for this kind of time. You also felt the need to be protected by him. You looked into his eyes and nodded. It seemed all too obvious to him that you were scared. You needed him. Causing him to nod again in return.

JYP High School/09.00 am

"Please Sir, don't punish our children. It must be the work of a bad person. I still remember the masked men caught me before I passed out. They're just helping me," your mum pleaded, making JYP High School's principal, Mr. Yang, sigh softly. He massaged his forehead before finally giving a final decision, "Okay Mrs. Park, my son is also involved after all. I will close the case."

Your mum, Mr. Bang, Mr. Hwang and all your friends' parents breathed a sigh of relief. The case caused an uproar throughout the city, considering that all those involved were from JYP High School. It's just that the principal, who was Jeongin's dad, had to clean up the school's reputation which was constantly being tarnished. Luckily Mr. Bang could help clear this case, considering that his son is also involved.

"Calm down Mr. Yang. I am currently discussing this case with the Mayor. I will release a clarification to the media to clear the good name of all of us." Mr. Bang finally spoke up, being the closing words of this parents' meeting. Perhaps more accurately, it was like an unplanned reunion.

"How long have you been here?", Mr. Hwang walked over to your mum, making her flinch and smile awkwardly.

"O-oh, just for some days. But I'm leaving again now. Uhm- I have to go-"

"How are you ?"

Your mum froze when Mr. Hwang, Hyunjin's dad, suddenly grabbed her wrist. Instantly all the memories seemed to flow from his hands, making your mum involuntarily shed tears. She let go of his hand quickly, refusing to make more memories filled her head, "I'm good, sorry, I'm in a hurry. See you later."

"Channie!" You ran to Chan who was sitting in the tribune. The field was still empty, only the basketball team was preparing before the match started. Some players were warming up, some were still changing clothes in the locker room.

"Hey baby, where have you been?"

"Was meeting my mum. It seems that all of our parents had come to talk to Mr. Yang. Looks like it worked. She said that your dad will help to clarify."

Chan nodded, then he hugged you from the side while planting a kiss on your forehead. You smiled shyly, making him giggle.

"You will be in the tribune, right?" Chan asked you expectantly. You nodded, of course you would watch the match.

Unintentionally, your eyes caught the figure of Jeongin passing by with his 'friends'. You tried to see where they're going. Chan realised where your focus is, and he instantly knew what's on your mind.

"Y/n, don't." Chan held your hand. You looked at Chan's face which showed a disapproving expression.

"But Chan, I have to-"
