That nightmare made me think while I was laying next to B-Bomb. It made me question when I should tell them. I also thought about when I should talk to him about the letters we wrote to each other. Then again, he probably didn't love me anymore. Did he even love me in the first place?

I fell asleep after he woke me in the middle of my nightmare. Even without him cuddling me and letting me feel safe, I managed to get a few hours more of sleep.

When I woke again, the room was the same, except that Jaehyo and B-Bomb left. When I entered the living room, I realized that they had gone to schedule, as well as the other 4, not including U-Kwon, again.

I was starting to panic. U-Kwon hadn't turned up in days, meaning he could've died at some point. But I decided against thinking about him.

I wasn't expecting the house phone to ring with the caller ID name, 'The Boss'. I assumed it meant Block B's manager, but I could've been wrong. But I also had this gut feeling telling me to answer the phone, so I did.

"Hello?" I answered as casual as possible, though inside I was freaking out.

"Uhm, hello, M'am?" He responded, sounding more perplexed than a usual person would. "Is U-Kwon home? He didn't show up for the other boys' recording."

I remembered that he hadn't shown up for anything since we went to the restaurant. "No, he isn't home."

"Do you know where he is? I need to contact him." He continued, a more pissed off tone in his voice now.

"Sir, no one knows where he is." I explained shortly.

There was awkward silence through the phone. For a moment, I wondered if he hung up. Then he spoke again.

"Who are you, again?"

I forgot that I was running from the authorities for a moment. It completely slipped my mind that he didn't know me, and he couldn't know me. Then again, why would I fucking care if I was caught?

"Oh, my name's Kim Raeki." I mentioned, waiting for it to hit him.

He was probably thinking while he wasn't talking. Then he finally responded, "I heard that name on the news. You wouldn't happen to be the girl running from the police, would you?"

"Yes, I am her."

I explained everything. I told him about Jiwon, about my mother before all of this, and I told him everything up to the last detail, even the thing about Jaehyo and my love-hate relationship with B-Bomb. He knew absolutely everything.

"Also, only U-Kwon and Taeil know. Jaehyo thinks he knows, but I told him something else."

After going through every single detail, and waiting for him to gasp or yell, I finished telling everything there was to tell. He seemed to be quiet on the other end.

I was wrong. He was only in shock. "And you didn't even tell them?"

"No, I figured if they knew, they'd be distracted with having me around. I told Taeil without much of a choice, and I told U-Kwon because I trusted him." I repeated.

"Alright. So why would you put them in danger if U-Kwon already went missing?"

I sighed into the phone. "I left just yesterday, and my friend and Taeil tricked me into coming back."

Once more, nothing was said. Finally, he asked, "Your friend?"

"Yea, Sung Jera. She came to move in with me the other day, then like I said, she came to move in with the guys and me."
