Anti-Hero | I-Land & Enhypen

-That's the Moral of the Story-

July 8, 2022, Seoul, South Korea.

"I'm sorry I'll have to leave to meet my family." Daniel told us. "Right, I sometimes forget you're Korean too." I said. "We can meet before I go though." He said. "Yeah, that'll be nice." "Well, see you later." Daniel said and left.

"Girl, I don't know what y'all said but you better not be thinking to get back." Aisha said. "Don't worry. That's not in my plans." I said. "It better. Also I heard he's seeing someone." Eleanor said. "Guys, I have a question." I said. "Shoot." "What about the kid?" I asked them. "Which kid?"

"You know, Delfina's. I just realized she has a child." I said. "Ah! Yeah, that ended on foster care." Aisha said. "Really?" I was concerned about him now. "Yeah, they took him that night, as she didn't have family in the US, and well your- sorry I keep messing up. Carlos, didn't have either." Eleanor said. "Guys now I feel really bad for him." I said. "I don't think there is much you can do."

After a long day of catching up with the girls I went back home. Also I received a call from the company saying they got the statement ready for me to be out of this scandal once in for all. "How did it went?" Jungwon asked being the only one still awake. "Great. Aisha has a boyfriend. Eleanor finally came out as pan to her parents. That girl who was supposed to be my friend feels bad for what she did. Yeah interesting day." I said.

"I'm happy it went good for you." He said. "There's something else." I said. "What happened?" "Carlos' and Delfina's kid ended up on foster care. And it's kind of my fault." I sadly bring up. "Well, Hayley I don't think there is much you can do. You're not even legal to adopt him if that was your idea." He said.

"I know, I know. But I can't leave that kid on foster care. That would be mean. Also, at this point he has a conscious to remember me as the bad guy. I don't want that either." I said. "We'll figure something out okay. But later." "Okay."

'The pictures and all of the evidence have been uploaded by an 'anonymous account', which of course it's us. We'll release the statement in a couple of minutes. Stay tuned.' That's what the text message from Taeho read like.

I wasn't waiting with my members though. Instead I was waiting for Daniel in the company's cafe, while the members are in music show. I'm in a short hiatus until we found enough proof. Currently social media is exploding, with engene defending me in it, after those proof came out.

Hello, this is Be:Lift Lab.

As many people know, our artist has been pointed out with bullying allegations. We didn't want to make a statement until we had enough evidence that proved this allegations wrong.

Today morning, we found the evidence we needed in a post done by an anonymous person. Plus a video of what actually happened in the snippet of the video you all watched.

We are currently waiting for a response from the account who posted the rest, so we can give them the reward they deserve.

As for Hayley, she'll shortly reincorporate into her normal schedule.

We would like to inform you, for this matter or similar matters in the future, false information, accusations, and further rumors that are being raised against our artist without clean grounds we will take legal actions.

Thanks.

Before everyone jumps into conclusions, I was the one who asked for no legal actions. At the end of the day Alex is still a minor like me. For Cole yes though. Because he did a lot of things wrong. So yeah.

"Hello." Daniel approached my table. "Hi." I stood up to greet him. "I'm glad the evidence we collected helped you." We sat back down in our chairs. "You know? When everything of this started, I thought maybe this was a sign for me to leave Enhypen. I will always love to think everything happens for a reason. But I'm starting to think it was for us to get a closure." I said.

"You think so?" He asked. "Yeah, I mean we didn't really have the best ending, and that letter. The one on Iland. I really needed it, but a the same time it made me question if we were done." I said. "First of all, the things I said... I didn't mean them. I was mad, I had always been insecure you were thinking about someone else. So, when you told me you were living I thought I was finally confirming what I had always thought. But I was wrong." Daniel said.

"Did I ever made something for you to feel that way? Cause if I did I'm extremely sorry." I said. "No, it was just me, thinking I wasn't enough. I wasn't really going through the best time in that moment. I wasn't ready for a relationship at the moment. And I got into one, but I couldn't manage it." Daniel said.

"I don't think I was going through the best time either. You saved me that night. Look, not to affect you, but I think that I wanted to be with you because I was in love with your actions, but not with you. You found me in a bad moment, or I found you in a bad moment, I don't know at this point. But we were never meant to be something." I said.

"Honestly I just wanted to date you because every guy would say you were pretty after you started dating Cole." Daniel said, and I looked at him in disbelief. "You are pretty. Don't get me wrong, you're just not my type." Daniel said, and we ended up with a hug.

"So... how did the meeting with Daniel went?" Jake asked. We were sitting in the living room eating ramyeon after their schedule. "Great." I said. "Yeah?" Sunoo asked. "Yes, I mean we talked about what happened before and apologized, even hugged." I said.

"Okay and then?" Sunghoon asked. "We said goodbye?" I said hesitantly after their eagerness on knowing. "Hayley, honey, if you haven't noticed we are trying to have a conversation with you right now." Dara said. "I don't understand." I said. "Look, we know you don't want us all over your life, but we do want to know what happens in it. Like a family." Heeseung said. "I'm going to ask this again. How did it went?" Jay said.

"Well, we realized we weren't ready for each other. That we just found each other in a low point or rough point of our lives, where he was really doubting himself, and I was in need for someone who could save me. At the end we just hurt each other. Moral of the story, we should really seek for help in times like those." I said.

"Wow! I never knew we could go that emotionally deep with noona without that much convincing ." Niki said. "The last time we had a heartfelt conversation with unnie, it was nothing like this." Iseul said. "Y'all shut up." I said embarrassed.

"It seems to always end up with us two." Jungwon said as he picked up the plates while I cleaned them. "Yeah, you always wait for me. I wait for you, that's how we work." I said. "Hayley." I turned to look at him. "Yeah?" "Can I ask something to you." He asked.

"Yeah, go ahead." I said. "I don't mean for this to sound weird, but... Are you in a tough moment of your life?" He asked. "You know? I have had many in my 18 years of life, but today seems to be specifically rough." I said. "Really?" "Yeah, good thing I have the best 9 people in the world to get me through it." "You sure do." Jungwon said and we smiled at each other.
