New Apologies

"I can't believe— And I entrusted her with stuff too." Felix was still in shock

"I trusted that she wouldn't sabotage her own group, I trusted her to care for me and my mistakes." I sighed before finishing my ramen. "But even if you see the good in people, they'll still back stab you."

I threw out my tray and placed it on the counter before waking out of the room, I need to think.

Was it worth it to forgive Mako? I know I was upset, I'm still upset with her but was I willing to trust her again?

No.

I don't think I want to trust her, even if she magically turns nice and humble one day.. It could be a trap.

I don't like to associate myself with people I know I can't trust, but my members? I trust them with my life, they're all like my sisters.

"Hey." I crashed into a chest which made me fall but a firm arm wrapped around my waist to keep me from falling.

Chris.

"Chan!" I smiled as I looked at him, he had a concerned look on his face as he brought me back to balance.

"I didn't mean to run into you like that, I'm sorry." Chan apologized.

"I'm fine!" I scoffed. "Why are you at my compan building though?"

"Here to pick up Felix." Chan smiled as he eyed the boy behind me. "Hi Felix."

I turned around to see Felix with a cold glare as he walked past us not saying a word to Chan.

"Hey, did he trouble you guys?" Chan asked in confusion to his attitude.

"No.. Not really." I shrugged. "Go off and take him home though, he's probably tired."

"Right." Chan nodded before pulling me into a hug. "See ya!"

I was left in the hallway with butterflies in my stomach, he was so dreamy. I love his hugs.

"We're going home for the day." Nina called out from the cafeteria doorway with the girls behind her. "Alaska, get some rest."

Right. It was 9PM now.

"Okay." I nodded as I followed them outside the building and into the van.

Maybe I needed this rest.. Just for one night I'll sleep early.

"Hello everyone, we are back with Itzy." I spoke into the microphone with my MC cards in my hand. "They have come back with their new full album, please check it out."

I smiled at the camera as Felix began to talk, Mako was here too but off camera she was pretty quiet. Even if she was following her script, she didn't look amused.

"Alright, we'll be right back!" I said as the cameras stopped rolling.

I walked over to Itzy and talked to them about a few things before sitting back down for the camera to start rolling.

Just 50 more minutes left.

The recordings were done and I was on my way to my dressing room before hearing a loud argument in one of the rooms.

It sounded like Felix and Mako were yelling.

"Hey! What's going on!" I burst into the room and close the door. "I can hear your yelling from the hallway!"

Mako turned to me with a glare and walked a few steps away from Felix.

"We have to keep it professional guys. What's the problem?" I sighed as I looked at them for an answer.

"I confronted her about the photo." Felix murmured before looking away.

Oh.

"Yeah, and what? It was a simple mistake I bet we all make them as a trainee." Mako rolled her eyes. "Besides... I'm trying to move past it."

"Move past it?" I snickered. "I can move past it but just because I can doesn't mean I will or Felix will. You know what the public would do to not just us but to you? If they found out the truth all three of us would be a huge controversy. JYPE already denied the rumors and made Felix—"

I stop myself from even mentioning the last part, it sickened me how JYPE treated him.

"The point is." Felix picked off from my sentence as he turned to Mako with a glare. "You ruined your life because of some petty feelings, Mako I trusted you and you threw it all away because you wanted to spend more time with me? I met Alaska first, she got closer to me first and way before we even talked."

Mako sighed and stared at the floor looking guilty as ever. If anyone is gonna get through to her it's gotta be Felix, I mean she supposedly has a crush on him so I would hope she listened to him.

"I'm sorry." Mako bows at us. "I.... I became a horrible person."

I looked at her with a stunned expression, Felix looked at her as well with a shocked face.

Did we finally get through to her?

Is she finally apologizing?

"I'll admit I was jealous.. I wanted Felix to want to hang out with me, I thought having an idol as a close friend would help me gain more popularity and help my debut... But to my luck you already befriended him." Mako turned to me with a soft expression. "I did everything I could to stay relevant and at the top.. I care about the girls.. I truly do! But I guess after the survival show I focused more on debuting rather than caring for my group."

I nodded my head at her hoping she would keep going, is she playing with us or was she being genuine? I seriously couldn't tell.

"I've lied to people and I've hurt people. All for what? To be a greedy person? It wasn't worth it." Mako confessed. "You and Felix... You guys would've been such a great couple if I didn't mess it up. I'm so sorry for invading your privacy."

Mako left the room quietly which left me and Felix alone together, something I wouldn't really recommend but I had to endure it.

"I um... I have to go." I began as I turned around but Felix holds my hand and turns me back to face him.

"Alaska." He called out. "Don't go."
