"Baekhyun did what?!" Sooyoung slammed the table as she stood up, rather shocked about what Taeyeon just told.

The atmosphere in the private room became charged with a mixture of anger and frustration. Taeyeon's clenched jaw and narrowed eyes spoke volumes about the storm brewing within her. Tiffany, ever the voice of reason, tried to mediate the escalating tension.

"Taeyeon, I understand this is incredibly upsetting, but let's try to approach this calmly. Sooyoung, please sit down," Tiffany urged, keeping a firm grip on Sooyoung's arm.

Sooyoung huffed but reluctantly complied, sinking back into her seat with a scowl. The other girls exchanged uneasy glances, sensing the delicate nature of the situation.

Tiffany took a deep breath, choosing her words carefully. "We need to gather all the facts before reacting impulsively. Taeyeon, did he provide any explanation or reason for his doubt?"

Taeyeon scoffed, her frustration evident. "Explanation? He accused me of lying about Liam being his son! What more is there to explain?"

Yuri interjected with a thoughtful expression, "But Taeyeon, maybe he's just shocked. Seven years is a long time to have no knowledge of a child. It's a lot to process suddenly."

Taeyeon shot Yuri a glare. "Yuri, I get it, but that doesn't give him the right to question my integrity. Liam is our son, and I won't let anyone doubt that."

As the conversation continued, the girls exchanged opinions, attempting to navigate the delicate balance between empathy and frustration. Sooyoung, still simmering with anger, couldn't help but voice her concerns.

"I don't care how shocked he is. Taeyeon doesn't deserve this kind of doubt. It's disrespectful and just plain wrong!" Sooyoung exclaimed, her frustration pouring out.

Tiffany sighed, realizing the emotional turmoil her friends were going through. "Let's try to approach this with a level head. Taeyeon, we support you, but it's essential to understand both sides before making any decisions."

A hush fell over the entire room, broken only by the sudden intrusion of a ringing tone echoing in its corners. Taeyeon's gaze swiftly shifted to her phone to identify the caller.

It was her mother.

"Hello?"

"Taeyeon, you need to come quickly.  Liam is in the hospital."

Hello sorry, to be honest I don't know where exactly is the direction of this story. So I really want to finish it and continue with the other ones. This is the reason why it's so hard for me to update. If you could just give me suggestions through direct messages I would gladly respond to you and take it into account.

Thank you so much!
