A loud banging on the door can be heard around the penthouse. However, Seulgi, who was in her room, was awakened by the noise. The bear feels confused, why is there always someone that interrupts her sleep? And who will attempt to visit her in the early morning? She doesn't even have a schedule for today so it's impossible for Seungwan to fetch her. She sighed and walked lazily to check the one that interrupted her sleep just like what happened the other day.
"What took you so long to open the door?!" Seungwan blurted out as she entered the penthouse.
Seulgi slumped her body on the couch and closed her eyes, "Is it obvious? I got awakened by your annoying noise, Wan. By the way, why are you here in this early morning?"
"Did you know?" She opened her eyes when Seungwan seriously asked.
"Know what?" Seungwan showed the news articles from her phone to Seulgi who sat straight and widened her eyes from reading the captions.
Global Superstar Kang Seulgi was rumored dating her team's Production Assistant, Bae Joohyun.
K-pop star Kang Seulgi was seen having an intimate moment with her team's Production Assistant, Bae Joohyun.
Soloist Kang Seulgi was spotted having a romantic date with her team's Production Assistant, Bae Joohyun.
"You are not the one who is trending right now, Seulgi. Joohyun is involved here and the photos of the two of you that night are circulating all over the social media. It's a good thing that there are still people who understand the situation but the worst is both of you are receiving a lot of hate from others." Seungwan explained but Seulgi remained speechless while holding her manager's phone.
"Wan... I already thought that this was bound to happen. I can take all the hate... and everything that they will throw, but for Joohyun... I don't want her to get hurt." She looked down and covered her face with her hands.
Seungwan sat beside her best friend and caressed her back, "I know Seul. I know. I'm here to help you."
"I'm the one who dragged her into this mess. I'm also the one who should protect her."
"Seul, it's neither your fault nor Joohyun. Both of you just chose to love each other. There is nothing wrong with that."
Seulgi looked at her best friend, "Thank you for always being with me, Wan."
"I'm glad to be with you always." After the heartfelt conversation between the two best friends, Seungwan decides to fetch Joohyun in her apartment commanded by Seulgi, and goes back to the penthouse to talk about what happened. The couple immediately exchanged warm hugs as they saw each other.
"How are you?" Seulgi worriedly asked as she caressed Joohyun's back.
"I'm the one who should ask you that. But to answer your question, I'm fine." Joohyun assured her bear as she pulled back from the hug and smiled at Seulgi. On the other hand, Seungwan cleared her throat to catch the attention of the lovely couple in front of her, "Uh... I'm still here." The two giggled but they sat on the couch along with Seungwan to start the discussion.
"I'm going to be straightforward here. The CEO called me a while ago. He wants to talk with Seulgi as much as possible."
"Wait, what about Joohyun? I don't want to leave her alone. She needs someone to be with her today."
"Seul, you can go. I can handle myself."
"But --"
"No buts, Kang Seulgi. Just go with Seungwan and talk to the CEO. I will be fine here."
