"Hey Juliet snap out of it already!" Gunwoo frantically clapping his hands in front of Hyo Jin's face.

Hyo Jin shudders as she brought back to reality. "Huh? What is it Gunwoo?"

"You're going too deep in your day dream. We're going to perform soon" Gunwoo spat as he fixed his hairs while looking himself on the mirror.

"Lee Gunwoo! What the hell did you do with your hairs? Don't mess it up" Miss Jean scolded Gunwoo as he try to change his hairstyle to fit more to his fashion sense and not his teacher's classic Victorian style one.

Hyo Jin just silently sit down on her chairs. Looking at her reflection on the mirror before her, she know that she's more than ready. Her practices for the past few days has make her remember the lines well and fixed what she needs to despite having to cut her quality time with Seyong.

"Again Hyo Jin?! What are you thinking actually?" Gunwoo is staring at Hyo Jin when she turned to him.

Hyo Jin is too immersed in her thought to really pay attention to her sorrounding. If another girls to be in her position they'll sweat a bucket and all my heart is beating so fast, so nervous but not for Hyo Jin today because of her sudden dark past flashbacks playing in her minds awhile ago make all her worries from yesterday gone.

"You really want to know?" She challenge with a dead serious face.

"Don't tell me..."

"Yes, that's right. I'm thinking about Soo Hyuk. Come to think of it, we never really broke up you know. I just kind of left him like that"

"Ya, it's just the same with breaking up with him. Even if you guys still in a relationship, you think he still love you after you leave like that?"

"You know that's not what I mean, right? He might be still looking for us. We even changed our phone number just to avoid him. I'm just scared that he'll make a--"

Gunwoo put his index finger against Hyo Jin's lips. "It's okay, you don't have to say it. I understand, under many circumstances... sure he'll do just that. We've prepared ourselves long ago even before we move here that we'll face the consequences with an open mind. We have to finish what we've bring upon ourselves."

Hyo Jin sighed. "But I can't face it just yet, I don't even know if I can fight that well anymore. I've been confining and promising myself on day one that I won't raise my fists to repent and atoned on our past mistakes"

"Hey hey, you have me. I won't let him hurt you Hyo Jin. I promise you that I'll protect you with all I can" Gunwoo chants as he pulled Hyo Jin into his arms. Caressing her hair to soothes her.

"Lee Gunwoo, I love you really. Thank you for everything you've done for me. I'm sorry that you joined that stupid gang for my sake. I shouldn't have let you get involved on the first place" Hyo Jin mumbled, getting teary because of the surge of emotions she's feeling.

"Lee Hyo Jin, don't try to blame yourself now. I joined that group under my own decision and not yours" Gunwoo fumed, it's true that he join for the sake of keeping an eye on Hyo Jin but he couldn't afford the latter to blame herself continuously.

"Still.. I'm sorry... I shouldn't have done it... I shouldn't have come to Hani's party or else all this is not going to happened to us on the first place, we live under fake façade" Hyo Jin mumble, crying even more.

"Lee Hyo Jin, stop it. We have a show to worried about right now. You just ruined your make-up idiot. Let's get this done first, it's too distracting for me to focus on our trouble. I'm going to have a talk with you after all this, you okay with that?" Gunwoo sternly said and Hyo Jin nodded to him.
