Food and Them

Chapter 38:Come Back Stronger

"Sally,are you sure you wanna do this?" asks JiYong.

"Life goes on,oppa," says Sally calmly.

Sally is going to follow Big Bang to their schedule today. Her heart is still aching about B2ST. She have to accept it. She is in the same van with JiYong and SeungHyun. She is thankful towards them for making sure she was okay yesterday after her breakdown. None of the B2ST member replied her message yet but she not going to harp on the matter again.

"So, for lunch later on, all of us going to have okomiyaki and dinner will be in the hotel. Your manager wants it that way for today," says Sally to both of them.

They nod in unison and staring at Sally intently. She frowns and uses her notebook to cover her face. Due to her ongoing crying yesterday, she have to put on make up to cover up the swollen eyes.

"Sally-ah, management wants you to follow GD to BeiJing," says their manager.

"Waeyo?!" asks Sally in shock.

"Because...hmmm...JiYong shi, you answer her."

Sally turns to JiYong. She waited for 1 minute before getting an answer.

"Because..it's a secret!" says JiYong while smiling wildly.

Sally shakes her head and says she needs to ask her brother for permission. Their manager says all has been settled. She have no choice but to go with JiYong. Suddenly,Sally's handphone rang. It's a video call from her family.

"OMMAAAAAA!!!!!!!!BOGOSHIPO!! " shouts Sally at the top of her lungs.

She doesn't care who is in the car. Tears start to well up. JiYong and SeungHyun greet her family. She is trying not to cry of not she will ruin her make up.

"Omma,I have to go now. I'll call you later okay? Saranghaeyoooo!!!"

She smiles from ear to ear because the video call make her happy. JiYong pats her back. They already reached the place. They are attending Japan music show. Sally will be with their manager as per request by the management.

While they are having their make up done, Sally roam around with the manager to ensure safety. In half an hour,they will be recording. She felt worried about the B2ST members. She kakao them individually.

Sally: Annyeong! Gwaenchana? I know it's a stupid question to ask but please give me a sign. Bogoshipo!

She puts her handphone aside and follow their manager. The show begin and the boys are so fluent in Japanese especially Seungri. She stood there and look at them. The recording lasted 3 hours and they did not get any break. Once done, Sally gave the boys water. She brief the boys on their lunch. The rest of the staff has already gone for their lunch.

"I'll follow the other van," says Sally to JiYong.

He nods.Seungri will be with him while YoungBae,DaeSung and SeungHyun will be in the other van. Sally board the van and tell them to rest as the journey to the restaurant is quite a distant.

DooJoon: Sally-ahhhh! Bogoshipo! I'm not sure myself. But we are coming back stronger. Gomawo!

Kikwang: SALLY-ah!!! Bogoshipoooo!!! Saranghae!! I am still accepting the fact but I will be stronger.

DongWoon: Sally-ah! I am okay,I think. But don't worry! Bogoshipo!!

JunHyung: Yo Sally-ah!!! Gwaenchana! I come back stronger for B2UTYs...

Yoseob and HyunSeung did not answer her kakao yet. She waits patiently. Sally turns to see all the boys are asleep. Her phone vibrates.

JiYong: The boys disturbing you?
Sally: Kekeke! ani, they are sleeping.
JiYong:Arasso! You okay?
Sally: YAHHH! I'm okay...
JiYong: If you are not okay, DooJoon will punch me. He asks me to take care of you.
Sally:YAHHH!
JiYong: I am not kidding!!!I worry about you,Sally. A lot of things happen these days so I have the right to be worried.
Sally:Oppa...I am okay...

They reached the place. Sally wakes all of the members. She leads the way and get their table for the five of them. The boys start eating. She went to the counter to settle the bills.

YoSeob: Sally-ah...sorry for the late reply. I'm not sure how to feel because we spent ups and downs together and this happen. I felt sad but I must be strong for Beast and B2UTYs...
Sally:Oppa...no need to apologise...I want you to come back strong for yourself first. I will see you soon,arasso!

She look up and see BigBang having fun. She smiles at the sight of it. She goes out of the restaurant. She just stand there and look up to the sky.

Sally: Oppa, I will head back to the hotel now. I'll take the taxi.

She hail a taxi.On the way back,she closes her eyes. Once she reach the hotel, she settles the dinner cost and goes back to her room.

JiYong:YAH!Why you head back alone?!!
JiYong:Sally-ah!!!I am so angry with you right now!

She just lay down on her bed.

"SALLY!OPEN THE DOOR NOWWWW!" shouts JiYong while banging on Sally's door.

She walks weakly to open the door. She faces the angry JiYong. Her eyes feel like its burning.

"De Oppa.."

"SALLY-ahhhh!!!!"
