Sooyoung agreed to drive me to the SM building because she didn't want me to drive with my state of mind.

When we exited the dorms together. There were already reporters outside awaiting us when Sooyoung drove out of the parking garage. Multiple camera flashes went off as I covered my face with my hands.

"Taeyeon! Taeyeon! Taeyeon!" They yelled, their cameras and microphones viciously strike against the glass.

"Soo..." I glanced over at the driver's side.

"It will be fine." She graced me with a patient smile that contrasted the look of panic swirling in her eyes.

Sooyoung thought for a few minutes before her hands gently rested on the center of the steering wheel.

Her attention falls on her hands then she smiles to herself.

She added pressure and the horn blasted. The reports retracted back away from the car. Sooyoung put the car in drive and managed to leave for the company building.

Once she got into the parking garage. I got off the car. I didn't have any plan on what I was going to say to the company board. Or if it was going to amount to anything. All I know is that I have to try. I have to try for Baekhyun and myself.

I make my way to the elevator so I can get to where the company board always has meetings about contracts, scandals, projects, and money.

There are barely any SM employees walking along the hallways but most of them seem busy with tasks.

A calloused palm seized my wrist without warning. I try to look over my shoulder at the person but I was tugged the opposite direction from my path. The front of my feet press into the ground to resist the tug until they back me into the wall. I come face to face with none other than Minjae.

My heart jumps into my throat. I can't shallow away the thickness. He looks around the corner then Minjae tugs me until he manages to get me outside the building away from any people.

What was he doing here? What was he going to do? How did he know I was going to be here? My thoughts raced with questions.

My eyes wondered about trying to find Sooyoung or anybody else but there was no one.

"Get in." He opened up the car door in front of me. "Please..."

"I just want to talk..." He explains, something unfamiliar lurking in his eyes. "Let me talk to you." Minjae's voice softens and his shoulders fall from their usual strong composure.

I bite the inside of my cheek. I feel the tug of war between mind and heart brewing making me hesitant to move forward or backward.

"Please, Taeyeon." Minjae's voice broke slightly.

"It's suppose to be me and you."

"Who you are as person to yourself is more important than what anybody else can say."

"I don't love Girls' Generation's Taeyeon. The one I love and know is a young women from Jeonju name Kim Taeyeon."

Even now I want to forget all the bad memories. Even now I can't tell which you is the real one. Even now the love and the hate has me trapped in a web of you.

I nod and a lips tug upwards. He closes the car door once I'm seated in the vehicle.

Minjae quickly enters the driver's side. The engine roars to life and he drives out of the area before I have the chance to second guess myself.
