( Jennie's POV )

" Look what I found," Rosé said approaching me followed by Tao. She then waved a bracelet in front of my face.
" You mean, we?" Tao asked her.
" No, I," she stuck out her tongue.
" And look who I found," I replied, " Jisoo! Come on down!"
" Jisoo?!" Tao and Rosé both said out aloud.

" Jisoo! Come on down!" Jennie called. That's my cue, so go downstairs, smile at the other girl who is... I think, Rosé? And the other guy's name is Tao... Yeah, I think I got it right.

" Rosé!" I happily exclaimed running down the staircase. I embraced her in a hug and tried my best not to suffocate her.  I released the hug and turned to the other person.

" Oh hi... Tao," I laughed. Who knew it was so much work to act bubbly! Without saying a word, he grabbed me and hugged me. I wanted to pull away so bad, I felt so uncomfortable. It was so awkward for me to hug a stranger for so long. I swallowed the lump in my throat and just went with the flow.

" I missed you so much," he whispered.
"I... Missed you too," I managed to reply. I had never been more unhappy.
" Okay, let her breath," Rosé said pulling me away from Tao. Damn her voice is high pitched.
" Jisoo!" I heard an old man shout. Dafuq?
" Oh, hi appa!" I yelled back waving excitedly. This is harder than I thought...

( Jisoo's POV )

Tae- Hwan and I were in the living room watching a Chinese drama when I began thinking about dinner.
" What are we having for dinner?" I asked turning to him.

" Good question," he replied turning off the TV," How about we get sushi take out?"
" Ooooh sushi!" I squealed clapping my hands.

( Tae- Hwan's POV )

She's like a child. How cute.
"We'll go out now for the food," I informed her.
" Yay!" She exclaimed jumping off of the couch.

( Jisoo's POV )

I was out in Seoul walking around with Tae- Hwan and it seemed like the later it got, the more people came out to explore. He was leading the way when I felt a hard tap in my shoulder.

" Who gave you permission to leave?!" An angry middle aged man shouted.

" Uh, I-" I was cut off by the man dragging me away from Tae- Hwan. I tried shouting his name multiple times but he was too far away to hear me. The man then shoved me into a bathroom with two other girls who gave me an outfit to change into.

" Here you go," One of them said to me.
" But-"
" No buts!" The other girl pointed her finger at me. I had no choice but to listen to their instructions.
" We're late!" The first girl checked the time on her phone.

" All thanks to Jia," The second one rolled her eyes. Jia? Who is Jia? And why are they calling me that? Do I look like her or something?

One of them grabbed my arm and dragged me into the center of a circle surrounded by a bunch of people. I've never had so many people stare at me. People were also filming me which made me even more uneasy.

" Park Jia! Park Jia! Park Jia!" The crowd chanted.  I tried shaking my head to indicate to the crowd that they had the wrong person, but everyone just ignored me. Music began playing and I just stood there clueless. The other two girls were dancing while people began throwing empty water bottles and other trash at me. I began crying like there was no tomorrow.

( Tae- Hwan )

I got the food and now all I needed to do was find Jisoo. Where is this girl? She can't just run away like that! I was trying my best to push through a crowd who was watching Park Jia dance. She and her crew are the best and most popular dancers in the city. I passed by and stopped myself when I saw a familiar girl in tears.

" Jisoo," I mumbled. I managed to get to her and when I did, I wrapped my arm around her and tried to leave, but some angry man kept stopping us. I had no other choice but to carry her on my back and get the hell out of everyone's sight.

" Go get your clothes, you have too much skin exposed," I said trying not to look at her. She nodded her head. She came back in her old, ripped clothes and I took her straight home to eat dinner and get some sleep. What a day...
