It was a few days later. Jiah was sitting on the edge of her bed, waiting for Yujun who was getting dressed. They got back from Jeju a day ago late at night. She didn't tell Yoona or Yujun about what happened nor was she planning on doing so. It was her secret. Well, their secret. She just hoped he didn't tell his friends which he probably had already done.

It killed her not telling her friends. She usually told them everything. But she couldn't tell them about him. If she told them, they would only tell her things she already knew. That it was wrong and stupid. It could cost her her job and that would be it. No more jobs for her.

Getting fired from a company like Wakeone would mean you're blacklisted. If she tried to get a job again, her new boss would just call her old one up and he would tell them not to hire someone like her. That's how it always went.

But the thing was, she wanted him. She wanted to know him, talk to him, hang out with him and share something. She hasn't felt like that since him. Ricky made her feel safe again, happy and worth of something. Maybe they could make it work somehow despite it putting her job at risk.

"Jiah, are you ready?"

Yujun stood in the door way, applying some lipgloss while looking at herself in her phone camera. Jiah stood up and grabbed her purse. The two headed outside where Hyeon was already waiting for them. At this point he was their private driver. 

Jiah didn't say much during the car ride. Yujun vented to her boyfriend about how annoying Gowon was as a roommate and about how they barely ate while being there. She also told him about the good things like the nature and the ducks they fed.

"Should I come and pick you two up? We can get Yoona on our way and meet Sungho in Hongdae" Hyeon suggested as the girls got out of the car.

"Yeah, sure" Yujun replied. "I'll text you the time"

She gave her boyfriend a kiss. As he drove off, they headed towards the set. It was a large building which they haven't been to before. It was the first day of filming the mv. Jiah could see some fans standing around the corners of the building with their large camera's, but three bodyguards were preventing them from going anywhere near the entrance.

The girls showed their staff iD's to the man guarding the door and were let in. Yujun let out a loud gasp when looking around. The set was very bright and colourful. It looked like a street you would see in an animation movie. 

Jiah looked around her, studying every person in the room. All she had to do was avoid him. Avoid him and then eventually forget it. Not like she wanted to forget it, it's just that it would be for the best. 

"I'm going to check out the outfits. Will you be fine?" Yujun turned to her nervous friend.

"Can I come with you?" she asked desperately.

Yujun chuckled. "Go grab your camera before you'll get scolded"

She grave her a reassuring shoulder pat and moved to the back of the room. Jiah let out a sigh. When she turned her head, she suddenly saw Ricky, Hanbin and Yujin standing near the vending machine. Her eyes widened in surprise when they suddenly started going her way. She quickly looked around and saw a prop. She hurried over there and hid herself behind it.

As she relaxed her shoulders, a sudden voice hit her eardrums.

"Are you hiding here to try to get a cameo in the mv?"

The girl frightened, almost falling against the prop behind her. She turned her head and saw a familiar face standing there. He had his hands in his pockets and looked at her with confused eyes.
