It had been another week and finally we were back home. We were practicing like crazy and it was getting to the point to where I was feeling weak. We we're currently practicing for Golden Disc. And I'd been up at all hours just trying to prepare myself for it. We had a few weeks left thankfully until we had to be in Jakarta. That was going to a be a fun trip for us all. Today we we're currently filming for our reality show but I wasn't feeling too good at the moment.

"Hey. Aella are you feeling okay? You don't look too good." Geuroo asked me and I nodded at her with a smile.

"I'm okay. Don't worry about me. I'm fine." I said to her and she looked at me with a smile.

"As long as your sure." She said to me and I nodded at her and we kept on going with what we were doing. Which was meaning we were running around a lot. I saw Dalrae look at me at one point.

"Ae, you really don't look okay. I think you should have a sit down for a bit." She said to me and that's when I saw Nemy come over to me. I was glad that I wasn't being crowded.

"Yeah. You're pale. That's it sit down and drink before..." she said and that's when I was out. Out cold at that. I was passed out I had to be. When I woke up I was in a hospital room and that's when I started to panic. I saw that Nemy was by my side. She must've left to be with me. "Hey, Ae I'm glad that your okay. You passed out." She said to me and I looked at her and I was worried.

"When do I get to go? I need to go and practice." I said to her and she looked at me with a serious expression.

"Tomorrow they want to observe you in case you have a concussion but you can't keep practicing like you have been. You passed out from exhaustion." She said to and I looked at her. I had to keep up with practice.

"But I have to keep practicing. What happens when we finally get to Golden Disc and it's not perfect." I said to her and she looked at me.

"It will be perfect. You are Aella a true performer. Anything and everything you do is amazing." She said to me and that's when I looked at the door. There was Ricky. He came in.

"I came as soon as I could. Is she okay? Aella, please tell me your okay." He said as he came in and I knew that he was probably worrying. I then looked at Nemy.

"I had to tell him. The articles would've exaggerated." She said to me justifying herself and I saw that Ricky was glad to see that I was okay.

"I'm okay. I overworked myself. I passed out from exhaustion." I said to him and he sat on the bed. I saw Nemy look at us.

"I'll wait outside give you two some space." She said and thats when she left. I knew what was coming next as I sat up in the bed.

"Ae, I thought you'd gotten over that part. The practicing all the time." He said to me and I looked at him. I'd never be able to get over that side of me.

"I can't. Everything has to be perfect and it needs to be clean." I said to him and he looked at me before taking my hand.

"I know but I think this is your sign to take it easy. You need to rest. I know that you will hate it but if you don't, who knows what will happen to you and next time it might be more serious. So rest up. Let Azumi and Aree do some choreographing and then have your input. When you get back to it go easy because no matter what you do people will be amused by it and I will love it." He said to me and I smiled at him. And I knew that what he was saying was right but in my mind it wasn't.

"I know. I know but- -" I started and that's where he cut me off from saying anything else.

"But what. There will be no buts. Please just listen to me. I can't have you being in another hospital room." He said to me and I smiled at him. All I wanted to do was kiss him but who knew who was outside that door.

"Fine. I will try and keep everything to a minimum just for you. Okay, you will not see me in one of these beds again." I said to him and he outstretched his arms. Inviting me in for a hug.

"That's what I like to hear. Now come here baby." He said to me and I hugged him. I didn't want to let him go.

"I want to stay like this forever." I said to him and he kissed my head before his on mine.

"I know you do. I've got to go soon. But I'll make sure Nemy looks after you." He said to me as we pulled away.

"I wish you could stay but I understand. I love you." I said to him and he started to stand up.

"I love you too." He said to me and that's when he left the room. Nemy then walked back in again. Me and her then started talking before the doctor came back in to check on me.

"I'm not going back to the dorm tonight I'm staying here with you. You could use me around for the night. I was thinking we could watch a drama and then try and sleep." She said to me and she got into the bed with me. We'd shared a bed a few times so this wasn't anything to me. She set her phone up on the table and we hugged each other whilst we watched a drama together. And when it finished I couldn't help but fall asleep. I was just exhausted and after this. I really would change everything and how I worked. I didn't want to be here again.
