Ken's pov

Soo Minwon, who is our manager just dropped by our dorm and told the guys and I about what will be happening next in contest that we had launched two weeks ago. He said that each member of the band is needed to pick a person that entered the contest to work with.

"You'll be given from today till' another five days. Just take your time and when you've picked someone, tell me" informed the manager.

After our manager left, the guys seemed pretty excited about what the manager told them and started to talk about it. Even though it has already been two weeks, I'm still down about my unexpected break-up with Da In. I really miss Da In. I miss her so much that it hurts inside. All my members think that I'm already fine with everything because I've started to act like my real self again.

But truth is, I'm still not even the least bit okay with anything. I just pretended to be hyper in front of my friends because I didn't want them to be worried for me anymore. It makes me feel a whole lot worse if I see my friends act really different just because of my condition.

I was about to walk to my shared bedroom with Hongbin until Ravi called me. "Ken-hyung, where are you going?" asked Ravi slightly tilting his head to the side. "I'm going to take a nap for a while. My head kinda hurts" I lied not wanting to tell him that I just felt really lazy to talk about the contest's stuff.

"Ohh do you want me to get you Panadol or something?" asked Ravi again slowly getting up from his seat. "No no it's fine. I'm sure it's just those headaches where you get when you're really tired" I tried to reason with him. "Are you sure?" He asked with a worried tone. I nodded and forced my lips to curve into a smile that turned out really awkward.

Ravi narrowed his eyes at me not fully convinced and I laughed. "Aigoo, Ravi-ah it's nothing. I know you love me but there's no need to worry about me this much" I cackled. Ravi snorted and rolled his eyes. "Arasso. If you need anything we'll be out here" Ravi finally convinced with my reasonings and went settled back to his seat.

I nodded and continued walking to my bedroom. I closed the bedroom door shut tight, as I didn't want my band members to see me in this still-depressing state right now. I belly-flopped onto the queen bed and stuffed my face in my fluffy pillow. I huffed out a tired sigh and stared at the ceiling, my thoughts fully occupied with the contest we're doing.

I chuckled thinking about it. It's funny how I was the most excited when the guys and I first heard of the contest. But now, I'm the one that's not excited for the contest anymore and it's all because of 'that' Da In incident that made me feel like this.

I actually still want to do this contest. It's just that I want to do it later until I'm fully myself. But I know I can't just easily ask our manager to move the date we would be picking the fans we'd be with because the management had already posted the notice about the date we'll be picking the fans to be our partner later on.

My head started to pound as I thought too much about the contest. I ruffled my hair in frustration as I couldn't think of any way to make the contest date move up further. I got up and went to the toilet that was in the bedroom and locked the door, not wanting a single person to know what I was going to do next in the toilet.

I looked at myself through the mirror and clicked my tongue. I kneeled on the bathroom floor and started to internally scream, letting out a barely audible squeal and pulled on my hair followed by shaking my head repeatedly like a posessed person.

After another minute has passed acting like a complete psycho in the toilet, I finally got up and looked at myself again through the mirror. I let out a relaxed sigh. I'm glad none of the members saw me doing all that otherwise they would've sent me straight to a mental hospital. "Hmm, this kind of way of relaxing yourself is kinda effective" I mumbled.

I was about to exit the toilet until someone from outside knocked on the door. "Ken-hyung, Gwenchanna? What's going on in there?" I could hear Hongbin knocking and asking me on the other side of the door. I started to panic and tried to quickly come up an answer for Hongbin's question.

I exited the toilet and saw Hongbin looking worried, still waiting for me. "Oh Hongbin-ah, I'm perfectly fine" I lied and smiled a little too awkwardly. "Okay, but I'm sure I heard you screamed a little just now, while you were in the toilet" Hongbin stated pointing towards the toilet.

"Ohh that? Well, I saw a fat-looking bee buzzing in the toilet and it came near me so yeah..." I trailed. "Are you hurt anywhere?" asked Hongbin while scanning his eyes over my whole body and I shook my head.

"Kureh. Be careful next time okay?" said Hongbin already making his way back to the living room. I chuckled and went to the bedroom.

I grabbed my phone and went to the Contacts square. I clicked on Da In's number and it beeped. It beeped a few times until the screen changed to red colour meaning that the phone call could not be reached by the person I'm calling. I pursed my lips. I've been trying to call Da In secretly without any of the members knowing but it seems like the only thing I'll be hearing is the phone operator saying; Sorry, the person you are trying to call could not be reached at the moment. Please try again later. And then, it would end with an annoying beep.

"I guess this is a sign that I'll never be able to see Da In ever again" I mumbled to myself and felt a sharp pain in my heart. I felt my vision blurring and tried my hardest to blink away the tears that are almost pouring out of my eyes.

"I'm so lucky to have friends that are always trying to make me happy" I thought in my heart about the other Vixx guys and smiled to myself.
