He handed me his handkerchief and i took it and tried removing the tears from my face. It was soaking wet. "why are you here" i ask him. "for you" he replied and sat down next to me. "did he hurt you?" he asked anger visible from his voice. "why are you asking that? Stop asking about my life" i said coldly. He chuckled bitterly.

"wow, you've changed yeri. i loved you before and i won't lie anymore, i still am in love with you. I tried moving on but i just couldn't. I just want to know why you're crying and who or what is the reason why. Remember? I'm your bestfriend since day one? That will never change no matter what." he said. I looked at him. "but no one understands me, no one ever will. Not even you. Nobody can. All you do is judge me." i said looking at the wall as i let my anger out.


"what? I will always understand you, yeri. If you think no one can, even jun, then i will understand you. I will always be here for you." he responded. Damn his words are making my heart soft. "but they're too mean josh! They judge me and call me names when they don't even know me! They keep telling me that i am a slut and that i switch from one boy to another. They call me ugly and fat and everything. Now i hate myself. I don't even know myself anymore! I just wanna die!" i said.



His eyes widen. He hugged me tightly. "i am so so sorry if i just found out about this now, i was too busy practicing and preparing that i forgot to check up on you. I feel so bad for you but don't let them drag you down. Be strong and fuck their opinions. They're just jealous of you because so many people love you. Including me, yeri. I love you. We love you. Please don't ever think about ending your life because i would die if you die." he said crying.

I cried with him. He is just too sweet. I continuously said "thank you, i'm so sorry" as i patted his back. When no more tears were there, we let go of eachother.





He gently placed his hands on both sides of my face and pulled my cheeks upwards. "smile, you're beautiful." he said smiling. I smile. I hug him once again. "thank you so much for understanding me and for always being there for me and just, everything you've done for me. I love you, hong." i said to him. "i love you too choi" he said. I giggled a bit.




"okay, let's get ourselves fixed right now if we still want to perform later. Okay? Just always remember what i said and love yourself. Bye yeri!" he said in a hurry as he ran to their room. I wave him goodbye and quietly enter the dressing room. The stylist noonas gasped at my face and what i looked like. I explained everything and they did my makeup and hair again. Thank god they are experts and really fast! We were finally called and we went to our seats in front of the stage and watched other groups perform.










It was finally our turn and we went onstage. We went to our positions and the song started playing. We performed our new song "bad boy".

(You're yeri from red velvet in the video, but just imagine you're wearing the outfit earlier. hehe)


The song ended and the crowd cheered. I stayed positive and just enjoyed the night even though jun and i had an arguement earlier. We went down the stage and seventeen was the one who greeted us first.

"good job guys! I love your song!" seungkwan said and started imitating our dance step. We laughed at his actions. They all praised us until jun passed me and he said sorry. I said sorry too and said it was okay and smiled.
