Chapter 77

Rose's POV

The day that Jaehyun got hit by the car, was the day that changed my life entirely for the worst. He really wasn't kidding when he said that day was going to be a day that I'd remember, for the good and bad.

How could twenty fours bring such destruction and pain into our lives? I still can't comprehend it.

Once I had heard that he was in a state of a coma, I broke down into tears. Even if I didn't love him the same way he loved me anymore, I still cared for him, he was my best friend after all. I just couldn't erase the memories I had of him in my head, it was just a lot for me to process.

Immediately once we got a hold of the situation, we immediately called the police and it wasn't too long before news stations got a hold of the story and started plastering our names everywhere.

Questions about us dating sparked up as soon as they saw the camera's evidence and no matter how many times we denied it, just saying a lame excuse that was along the lines of us getting into a heated argument AS FRIENDS, people knew better, people already started to riot against our positions in our respective groups.

They wanted us to get kick out of our own groups, like if we hadn't gone through enough trauma to deal with.

Stepping a single foot out of my house was basically impossible for me without having a bunch of paparazzi ask me a lot of questions.

"Ms. Park, how are you feelings about all of the allegations of you and Bang Chan dating?"

"Can you go into a little more detail about the accident?"

The only thing I could was ignore them, having been so caught up in remembering such night, that I just couldn't even form any sort of words; Walking was already starting to become a problem for me.

Watching as blood basically oozed off from his head and as the car stepped on the gas and ran as fast as it possibly could, I couldn't get a grip, I just didn't know what to do.

Both of our respective companies completely denied the dating rumors, but it just wasn't enough, they needed to keep us both out of the public sight for a while. Of course, we all felt extremely saddened by the news, but we all knew that this was for the best.

The only thing that I truly felt worried about was Jaehyun and whether or not I was going to be kicked out of the group, as my future seemed extremely rocky and unstable to even try saving...and of course, I felt worried about how Chan was dealing with all of this.

Having a bunch of spare time for myself, the only thing I could do was look through the comments and see what the netizens thought about me, feeling extremely insecure in what people thought of me.

I also started to watch the news a lot more, hoping to see any sort of update on Jae's state, as I was too afraid to go ahead and check up on him myself, yet there were no sort of updates.

"Ms. Park? Ms. Park, can you please answer this question?" I finally came towards my senses and  gave the new's reporter a fake smile. I was standing in front of a bunch of paparazzi, as my members looked at me with worried expressions.

I decided to completely ignore everyone that was standing in front of me, hoping into the van where my members were waiting for me, not even saying a word to me.

Everyone around me just felt too sorry to even say anything.

Spending the first four days after the incident was a sort of a timeless hell for me, only being to able to watch a bunch tv shows while completely sobbing at every single sad scene they'd throw, munching on the bunches of chips and popcorns our manager had bought for me.
