Chapter 36: Rumors again!!!

Sally:Oppa! Where should I meet you?
JiYong: Our manager did not inform you that today,you are allowed to rest?!
Sally: I was informed yesterday but I have to go. This is the first day I am with you so I have to go.

JiYong smiles reading Sally's messages. She is stubborn just like Sandy said.So, JiYong went to her room. After a few knocks,Sally opens her door. She is all ready. Sally blushed because JiYong was staring at her.

"Oppa! Kaja! Don't stare at me like that! Haha!" says Sally.

Both Sally and JiYong's phone receive notifications. Another rumor! It's about Sally being seen with DooJoon and T.O.P during the commotion.

"Seen with BEAST DooJoon AND T.O.P?!The same girl triple timing GDragon?!"

JiYong punches the nearest wall. Sally just sigh. She pats jiYong's shoulder. Sally's phone rang.

"SALLY!WHAT IS THIS?!"shouts Ray.

"An innocent visit that netizen make it an issue. And can you just stop shouting at me?" says Sally patiently.

Ray keeps quiet. Sally knows that her brother will stop shouting when somebody speaks to him patiently. Sally assures Ray that nothing happen between them. Sally eyeing on JiYong who is also on the phone.

Sandy: Sally,are you okay?

YoSeob: Sally-ah! Hwaiting!
HyunSeung: Hwaiting Sally-ah!
KikWang: Hwaiting!!
JunHyung: Sally-ah,hwaiting!
DongWoon: Beast Maknae here! Sally-ah! Hwaitingggg!!!

DooJoon: Aigoooo! Sally-ah,mian! I didn't know that somebody capture our pictures.

Sally sigh upon reading all her Kakao messages. She turns to JiYong who is furiously mad right now. She approaches him and tap his shoulder.

"Gwaenchana?" asks Sally.

JiYong just nod his head. Both of them walk in silence. Something struck Sally. She stops and tell JiYong to go without her.

"Sally.."

"Oppa..this happen because I am too close with you guys. I am too comfortable with you guys. I'll just ensure all your meals are taken care of," explains Sally sadly.

She did not look at JiYong in the eyes. While walking back to her room, she hears JiYong calling her name.She goes into her hotel room and lay down on her bed. She closes her eyes and tears escaped from her eyes.

Sally: Sandy..I forget that I am just a normal lady. It slip my mind that Beast and Big Bang are Hallyu Star. Gosh! I forget that I am just a caterer. Mianhaeyo, Sandy!

Sandy:Oppa!! Sally with you?!
SeungHyun: Ani! Waeyo?!
Sandy:I forwarding the message she send me. Why is she apologising to me? Will shecommit suicide?! Oppa!!

After reading the message, SeungHyun calls Sally's phone but there's no answer. He forward it to JiYong. He is already on the way back to the hotel. He feared that what Sandy says maybe happening. A lot going through his mind.He could not care less about the rumors because he knew it is not true.

Once the car stop at the lobby, he ran. He already get  the hotel management to standby in case Sally do not open the door. He knocks the door loudly and calls Sally out.

The door opens slowly and they are greeted with a sleepy Sally. Her eyes are half-open and swollen from crying. SeungHyun sighs loudly.

"Waeyo?" says Sally while frowning.

SeungHyun thanks the hotel staff and he let himself in Sally's room. He dials a number he already memorize by now and puts on loudspeaker.

"SALLY-AHHH!!!DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT!"

"Sandy?"

"Why you apologizing to me?!!!"

"Yah! You thought I am comitting suicide?" says Sally while taking the phone and off the loudspeaker mode.

She goes to the balcony and SeungHyun hears cries from her.

"Where is Sally?!" ask JiYong when he comes in.

SeungHyun points to the balcony. JiYong smiles while catching his breath.

"Why are all of you here?How about the schedule?!Yah! I am okay!" says Sally angrily.

"The schedule is already over,you babo! How can you be sleeping while we are so busy?"says Daesung while smiling.

Sally looks at her watch and sigh. She fell asleep while crying. JiYong approaches her and gives her a tight hug.

"YAYYY! Group hugg!!" shouts Seungri.

Taeyang pulled his collar and just let it be a hug between JiYong and Sally. Seungri pouts.

"Join us  tomorrow okay?" says Daesung to Sally.

Sally did not answer but she just smiles. The boys left her with JiYong and SeungHyun.

"Let's talk. You scare us when you message Sandy like that," says SeungHyun.

"Mianhae...I...didn't mean to scare anyone,"says Sally sadly.

Sally looks down and controls her tears. She do not want to cry in front of them. They were quiet.

"Oppa...I'll be okay."

"NO! I know you won't! Stop putting on smiles when you are crying inside," says JiYong sternly.

Sally is shock by his words. Her tears escaped her eyes.

"All of us are worried about you. Beast members,Sandy and us! When the rumors came up, I know you are affected badly but all you do is to brush it off and act nothing happen. Wae?!" says JiYong angrily.

Sally sigh and look at JiYong and SeungHyun.

"I did cry about it. You saw it.Beast oppas saw it. I brushed it off because no point dwelling on it. I forgave whoever did it and move on with life," says Sally patiently.

JiYong and SeungHyun looks at Sally. They do not know how to counter that. Sally stood up.

"SALLY!!!!"
