Jisoo is anxiously waiting for the shoot to began while still being seated inside her dressing room. She is ready for the shoot, her make up is done, hair is done and even the dress is done, the only absence is the time. It's getting out of hand, it's getting late.

The door suddenly opens and Jisoo's flinches then looks behind her, it's Ryu. "He just arrived while you were getting ready. Don't worry, wait a few more minutes." Ryu assures Jisoo then takes a seat next to her.

Jisoo nods. She's silent like never before and Ryu notices her painful moments of silence, it irks Ryu, to see her like this.

"What are you thinking?" Jisoo snaps back to reality when the latter speaks. Jisoo shakes her head and leans into the table infront of her.

"I just want to get this over with. I'm tired" exhausted sounds a lot applicable at her situation but she doesn't want to get more stressed than already she is, by crying out loud about her mental sanity.

"I can see that. You need to cope up a little before the shoot starts." Ryu exclaims and moves to shuffle in her bag, finding something.

"I know. Why else would i be waiting? If i were that exhausted i would've postponed today's shoot." Jisoo remarked.

"I know. That's why....." Ryu hands her a bottle of energy drink "have this" Jisoo thanks her and opens the bottle taking small bits of sips.

"Jisoo." Ryu calls out "This is an extremely important collaboration right here. And today it's our first step to make this plan succeed, I don't want you to keep thinking about your lowlife of an ex fiancee. That piece of shit deserves the death of an-"

"That's enough, ryu." Jisoo says. "We can have this conversation later. Also it isn't him i have been thinking about, I'm just a little nervous for today. I have no idea why because i never felt this way before but nevertheless, I'll make through this. I won't let my weak state come in any way of this collaboration. I'll give my all for this, whatever it takes. Just letting you know, I'm perfectly fine and at the moment i assure you, I'll allow nothing to occupy my mind." Jisoo takes a deep breath and looks at Ryu

"We're in this together."

Just then, Jisoo's phone rings snapping her consciousness infront her vanity table, she looks down at the caller id and finds her dad calling her.

"That might be urgent " Ryu states. Jisoo shakes her head.

It maybe true that Jisoo's dad only finds it convenient to call her only when it's important especially when he knows that she's in middle of business - like right now - yet Jisoo doesn't find it to be urgent as much as he does.

If she picks this phone up, she will loose last of her braincells and her sanity left within her, she wouldn't be able to focus like she promised ryu but then again if she doesn't pick up, for sure as hell she will suffer the consequences later.

She decided to choose the last option.

"I really don't need any distractions right now" she replies and that's enough of an statement to make ryu understand what she means by it.

Ryu nods her head. Jisoo keeps looking at the ringing device on her table and her insanity takes over as she grips tight on the drink and gulps it all in one go.

She looks down towards her phone again while wiping her lips with back of her hand and placing the empty bottle of drink on the table with a small sound.

She looks at Ryu, repeating her words

"We're in this together."
