Food and Them

Chapter 27: Aftermath

"This is outrageous!" shouts Sandy.

DooJoon is on the phone with the media and JiYong is standing beside him. The boys are much calmer now. SeungHyun is talking to the members.

"Oppa!Maybe all of you upload a selfie at instagram or a tweet to say you are alive!" suggest Sandy.

Sally agrees and all of the boys start to take a picture. Sally goes out to check on DooJoon and JiYong. DooJoon is sitting and his head is down.

"DooJoon-shi! Don't worry,I'm sure your management will take action. You are doing a good job in protecting your members,"coaxs JiYong.

"I am worried about their parents,my parents and B2UTY. I do not want anybody to be hurt," says DooJoon.

Tears well up in Sally's eyes. Why must people spread rumors that hurt people? Sally just let them have their moment. Sally receives Instagram notification stating all the 5 members posted picture. Sally walks back to the ward but he heard DooJoon called him. She wipes her tears that are about to spill out. 

"DooJoon oppa,time for you to take a selfie," smiles Sally.

"Yah!Why you crying?"asks DooJoon.

Sally just smiles widely and unconsciously she hugs DooJoon.

"Thank you for being a strong leader," says Sally to both JiYong and DooJoon.

DooJoon pulls Sally and hugs her. Sally is shock and JiYong hugs her too.She tried to breakfree but they hug her tighter.

DooJoon also uploads a selfie at his Instagram. Thry went in to the ward and all of members are already calmer. Sandy sits with SeungHyun and Sally is teasing her through Kakao.

Sally: Aigoooo..So cute...
Sandy:Yahhh! Don't make me blush!
Sandy: I need to go home.My omma calling me.
Sally: I'll send you home.
Sandy: Actually...

"Sally-ah, I'll send Sandy home. Arayo? " says SeungHyun.

Sandy stuns and looks at Sally. Sally smiles and says that it is up to Sandy if she wants to. SeungHyun holds Sandy's hand. JiYong just advice SeungHyun not to get caught. Sandy hugs Sally and take a leave.

"Oppa,you not going home?" asks Sally to JiYong.

JiYong shakes his head and make himself comfortable. All of them laugh.

"Hyung,what happen now?" asks KikWang.

"Hmmm..management is handling and at least omma, appa and B2UTy know we are alive," says DooJoon.

Yoseob fell asleep. The members look tired. Sally suggests them to go home and rest. They agreed after her persuasion except DooJoon. DooJoon sends his member to their van. While waiting for DooJoon, Sally grabs something to eat.

From far, she looks at DooJoo  walking towards her and he seems limping. Sally put away her bun and runs to DooJoon. Just like an omma, she begins to help DooJoon. She place his arm over her shoulder. She asks DooJoon to lean on her to ease the pain on his knees.

"You know about my injured knees?"

Sally nods and continue walking. They walk slowly to YoSeob's ward. DooJoon's phone rings. It is his omma and they took a break. Looking at DooJoon talking to his omma fondly, she calls her omma too.

"Omma! Saranghaeyooo!" says Sally excitedly before ending her call.

DooJoon and Sally continue walking. Once reached, JiYong was already asleep.

"Oppa,JiYong sunbae did not go home?" asks Sally.

"Of course! If not, who is this?" jokes DooJoon.

Sally rolls her eyes and gives DooJoon bread. She taps JiYong's arm. He is really fast asleep. She wonders why JiYong still here. She just munch on her food.

"Sally-ah! Why did you stay?" asks DooJoon.

"Well..YoSeob stayed with me when I was hospitalized. He ensures that Sandy and I are okay. He is such a sweetheart yet a nerd," laughs Sally.

DooJoon just nods. Sally asks him to rest. In5minutes,the room is quiet. Sally looks at the 3 boys sleeping soundly. She finds a cozy corner for her to rest. She teases Sandy and she also fell asleep.

Sally: Please try not to get hurt!

She sends it to both the group before she dozes off.
