'Here is a clip of when both of you collapsed during the concert.'

Haerin and Yoongi sat together at the large table, and shifted their gaze to the screen at the front of the room.

Below it sat Bang Si Hyuk, and he proceeded to press play on the video that was displayed on the screen in his office.

After manager got the call from him at the dorm, Yoongi and Haerin were rushed to the Bighit building to have a meeting with the CEO.

Haerin was so nervous.

As Mr Bang was upset enough as it is that the whole soulmate finding process happened at a concert, she wondered what his reaction would be when he'd find out that she and Yoongi did not get along.

It made her feel so guilty for being a fan. She thought she shouldn't deserve to be his soulmate. And now they were in trouble with the CEO of Bighit Entertainment.

The footage played, and it was not missed by the two soulmates that the video was titled, "SUGA FROM BTS AND FAN FAINT AT CONCERT."

They both bit their lips as the first few seconds of the video showed.

It was when BTS were thanking fans for coming to their concert before they'd leave the stage and do the encore.

Both of them could not hear too well, but could tell what part of the concert the footage was playing.

Yoongi was clearly visible in the frame unlike Haerin, who was somewhere blended in the sea of fans.

It was when Yoongi in the video started crying, and Jimin went over to comfort him and Seokjin teased.

The two held their seats in anticipation, wanting to know what happened after they collapsed.

There was then a sudden shift in the camera angle, and the next thing seen on the video was Yoongi lying on stage and a section of the vip area of the arena isolating a single figure that laid on the ground.

Haerin turned to look beside her to see Yoongi's reaction.

He was watching the screen, not looking at himself, but at her. She saw how he was watching her on video, limp on the floor and her friend and security scurrying to her. He did not blink once, and just stared so sadly but almost fondly at the girl on the ground.

She lifted her hand up, ready to place it on his shoulder until the video paused and Yoongi diverted his attention to the CEO.

'This is what people have been saying in the comments.'

He held up a notebook at them with the words.

On the tv, showed a document with various screenshots.

Yoongi and Haerin leaned further forward in their chairs to get a better read of them.

NO WAYYYYYYY no freaking way shes his soulmate

nuhHUuHhH she looks like a total-

"Don't read them."

Haerin felt her cheek warm, and the hand turn her head to the side, to be face to face with Yoongi.

"What? What are you-" she stopped when she felt a soft slap on her head.

She opened her eyes and peeled off the sticky note from her forehead. I thought I told him not to stick these on my face.

Haerin looked down and read the note in her hand.

'Don't read the comments.'

Just when she was about to ask for an explanation, Bang Si Hyuk had already minimised the tab and turned off the screen, getting Yongi's attention away from his soulmate.

'Do you know how many views this has?'

'Reuploads?'

'Tweets?'

"No, sir," they replied.

'Well, I can tell you it's a lot.'

They both looked down and nodded.

'I'll be sending out an issue regarding your safety after what happened at the concert.'

'Only after all your appointments with the specialists are we going to tell others and the public about you being soulmates. Only until then, Haerin can decide if she wants her identity to be revealed.'

'However, being able to tell a certain group of people also applies to the two of you, so avoid telling friends, putting it on social media, etc, only family (parents) about your bond.'

Haerin raised a brow. Did he really think that she was going to boast about being a member of BTS' soulmate to others? On social media too?

She felt hurt and slight anger weighed on her. Was this how all the other members thought as well? Just because she was a fan? Is that why Manager took her phone when she first arrived at the dorm?

She grew even more concerned. What was she to tell Euna? She must've been worried sick and had not contacted her since before she fainted. Did she even get an explanation of where Haerin was?

The two soulmates were to book another appointment with Dr Rhee. If only Haerin asked her why she had never heard Yoongi before instead of being caught up in the thought that it would be too weird of a question at the time, they probably wouldn't need another one.

Haerin had more worries.

What did the public think of her?

They'd keep on becoming curious of who she was the longer it takes to finally tell them.

'Keep on working towards recovery, and continue to go to appointments with specialists.'

CEO wrote, as a sign for them saying the meeting was over.

"Thank you, we will," both said.

They stood and bowed, along with manager who was in the room with them.

At that, they left, minds clouded with thoughts.

Haerin's especially.

She kept her hurting head low as she walked through the halls of Bighit, as they made their way to the back of the building to the car then back to the dorm.

'Don't worry, everything's going to be fine.'

A note stuck on her arm, and she looked beside her to see Yoongi, gaze straight ahead as if he wasn't the one who stuck it on her.

'I hope so.'

She placed it in his folded arms before she hurriedly ran towards the exit to push the door open after manager.

The car ride was quiet.

Manager sat in the front seat and Haerin and Yoongi sat in the back, both at either window.
