"You!"

"No..." Bongmin stared at Oliver in Horror.

"What happened?" Taehyung slowly asked.

"What happened?" Jinyoung, who just came in, asked.

"I'm sorry! I really didn't know it was you." Bongmin said to Oliver.

"You wouldn't have stopped even if you knew it was me, you would have become worse. I've seen the look you've given me the day I was introduced." Oliver huffed.

"I didn't know back then..."

"What didn't you know back then?"

"How about you tell us what happened first?" Jisoo stepped in, making everyone in the room look at her.

She is the VIP after all! (The author shrugged her shoulders in obviousness.)

Jisoo raised her eyebrows, narrowing eyes at Bongmin and Oliver.

"I was walking back home after buying some groceries you asked me to when I noticed a suspicious man completely covered in white." Bongmin began.

"How is white even suspicious?" Oliver scoffed.

"Well, it was the dullest white I've ever seen!" Bongmin pointed towards the clothes Oliver was wearing, they are the same clothes he wore that night according to her.

The rest nodded understandingly.

"That was very suspicious." Bongmin continued, "Anyways, the man was walking behind me and I noticed that he was following a frail girl walking in front of me."

"How could you even come to that conclusion?" Oliver was bewildered. She thought he was following some other girl?

"I looked back accidentally, that maybe something slipped from my pocket onto the road and I saw that you were glancing at the girl many times, from then I've seen you look at the girl for more than five times suspiciously."

"And that justifies you beating me?"

"You hit him!?" All of them looked at Bongmin, shocked.

"A suspicious man is following a girl who looks small and weak, what else did you expect me to do?" Bongmin looked at them embarrassedly.

"True! Why did you follow that girl Oliver?" Taehyung looked at Oliver with arms folded.

Oliver looked at Taehyung, betrayed. "I was not following whomever miss boxing queen thought I was!"

"Did you get hurt that bad?" Bongmin looked at him worriedly.

"Oliver could you tell us your point of view of the situation?" Jinyoung spoke.

"I was on a walk for fresh air and on the way I saw someone familiar-" Oliver pointed at Bongmin.

"And tried to figure out who that was, so I was looking at you and not any other girl, miss." He glared at her as she tried to hide behind Taehyung.

"Why are you hiding? How much did you hit him?" Taehyung whispered to the extremely embarrassed Bongmin.

"I guess you could say a lot." She replied, lightly pointing at Oliver's neck which had a light bruise.

"When did this take place?" Jisoo asked.

"Two weeks ago."

"Two weeks ago?! You almost killed him!" Jinyoung walked towards Oliver, inspecting his bruised neck.

"I punched him with a leather wallet."

"That explains the scar above the eyebrow."

"But why didn't you recognise each other, though?" Jisoo walked to Bongmin, lightly slapping her head.
