Everything's  happening so fast I can't even comprehend it. It was 4:00 AM my time here in America and like what 5:00 PM Korean time.

I was sleeping on Taylor's couch after it was decided we were having a slumber party when my phone went off and off. I lazily went to grab my phone that was almost dead while I made my way to the bathroom to check what the hell was going on. It took time for my eyes to adjust to the brightly lit phone while I did my best to keep quiet and not wake up the other girls who were sleeping in the living room.

I had missed calls upon missed calls by my managers, company, members, Jook, friends....what the hell!

My phone kept dinging every minute with new messages and new social media things and I was still only waking up. The Met Gala had been a long day yesterday and I had a long night so all I wanted to do was shut off my phone completely and get a few more hours of sleep before I head to LA to film again.

Opening up Twitter, I'm annoyed because that's where I'm getting tagged the most.

What the fuck?

My heart stops at the tweet while my breathing becomes ragged while I go through the thread and see links to the news articles that I can't help but open and look through.

"Korean Army...Hongdae....jook...."

I was halfway through reading just how all of this started when my phone begins ringing from the company and I pale at the number. Falling to the floor, my body is sweaty all over and I know I'm in deep shit.

"I don't wanna answer...I don't wanna answer...I don't wanna answer" I keep repeating to myself while my tears fall and I can feel my heart beating super quickly.

I'm going to get yelled at!

I don't wanna be yelled at

Oh my god

When my phone stops ringing, I stare at it with tears streaming down my face and a runny nose while I am left not knowing what to do at all.

I'm going to be in even more trouble for dodging the company's calls in a time of a crisis.

I try to open my phone back up but my hands are shaking uncontrollably.

I try to take deep breaths but they don't work as more tears fall and I have to just quickly tap the call button and squeeze my eyes shut.

The phone doesn't even ring for a second before I hear someone answering and shouting

"WE TOLD YOU THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN! BUT YOU DON'T LISTEN DO YOU!!"

"WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING! WAS THIS YOURS AND JUNGKOOK'S PLAN ALL ALONG?

"WHY DID BIGHIT NOT DENY THE RUMOR??!! DID YOU TWO TELL THEM TO RELEASE THAT STATEMENT?"

"DO YOU KNOW HOW BAD THIS MAKES US LOOK? HOW BAD YOU LOOK?"

My tears fall even quicker while my whole body is shaking, I don't know what response they're talking about, but I'm sure its bad.
