A few days have passed since the last mission Lisa went on with Chanyeol's help. Although it wasn't necessarily tiring, the girl was starting to feel rather lethargic as she hasn't been active with neither missions nor songs.

After confirming that the ring didn't belong to any of the other three members, the girl took claim of it and wore it on her index finger daily. She loved how the bands glistened as the light shown on it and how the small details engrained on the sides was visible only in certain angles.

It was around midnight when Lisa decided to head out for a walk. She didn't bother to wear a mask to conceal her identity as she didn't expect anyone to notice her at this time of the night. She headed out her apartment calling out to any of her unnies, informing them of her whereabouts. 

Most people warned girls to stay out of the streets after the sun goes down but Lisa was no ordinary girl. Mastering the art of Muai Thai and completing her 7th degree Blackbelt in Taekwondo, hardly any males could touch her, much less mess with her.

The smell of midsummer's night came in with the breeze as the automatic doors of the apartment complex slid open upon the approaching girl. Haven't exactly thought of a destination, the girl wandered aimless into nearby park next to the Han river for a stroll.

After her meaningless walk was completed, she decided headed back towards her apartment. On her way into the elevator that she seemed to have waited forever on, a guy paused to glance at the girl before bowing his head and rushing out the opening doors. 

On his hurried way out, he bumped into the girl muttering a light '죄송합니다' (joesonghamnida), causing Lisa to turn and eye his running figure with confusion. The elevator opening was definitely big enough for the other guy to walk out without any physical contact. 

Suspecting that it had been on purpose, Lisa waved the thought away, deciding not to be so quick to jump into conclusions. Despite the sharp 6th sense of hers, Lisa ignored her suspicions by concluding it to be an accident. 

The next day, YG-Sajangim called Lisa and Jennie in for a brief meeting with the fellow ARI members of the company. In the meeting room sat all of Big Bang's members with 2ne1's CL and Dara. The eldest of the crew were all mentors to the younger ones as they had stopped with the missions a long time ago for reasons Lisa never bothered to ask.

Lisa and Jennie bowed to their sunbaes as there were next to arrive, Dara whom Blackpink were close with gave the two a welcoming wave as she motioned for them to sit beside her. The meeting started a few minutes after the arrival of Winner's Mino and Seunghoon following behind Ikon's Bobby, Junhoe and Hanbin whom most people know as B.I. and finally the creator of the meeting himself.

The meeting consisted of YG's strategic plans for an upcoming project. He talked on and on so much about topics Lisa deemed insignificant that she almost stopped listening but her ears perked up when the sound of her name came out behind the words...'partnering with'. She mentally recalled the earlier phrases her boss mentioned. 

'Collaborating'...'partners'...'could determine the fairness of the industry'...lastly but not least 'Big Hit' and 'BTS'.

"Personally I think that it would be a great idea, Lisa is the best at her job and she is a quick learner, although this sounds a bit risky but I think with Lisa's skills it wouldn't be an issue."

"I'm sorry Taeyang I object, We don't know any of the members from BTS personally, how can we trust my dongsaeng with them?"

"I agree with Chae-Rin, I trust Lisa's skills but I'm not sure about her partner's." chimed Ji-yong, commonly known by G-Dragon or a god of music.
