Ch 28

It's been a few days since I last met with Lee. My anger has slightly lessened as I can see where he was coming from. Seeing and experiencing the motions Tae went through as Lee had to be one of the few people there for him because of Lee being of the only few who knew the truth, the truth to why I left. I do feel and understand the pain that Tae went through, and yet at the same time, I think about how much I battled on my own of, building a new life, dealing with criticism by complete strangers, disappointing my family, and showing that despite my unusual circumstances, I deserved to be head publicist, all with another life growing inside of me. I know I need to let go of this anger, but I just don't know how to at this point. The burning inferno that has been resting in my heart just seems to spark more every time Tae or Lee tries to fix what was broken.

I knew that the anger was misplaced, that the struggles I went through were already something I anticipated. I knew that before Tae left me in that conference room, I had planned to leave him, that I had no choice but to leave him. There was no way we could end up together, not when he was a celebrity and I his publicist. There was no way of staying together, not if I wanted my child to grow up in a warm and loving environment. Nor did I want to hurt Tae or his group members because I knew if our relationship ever came to light, then fans would not be happy. They could lose fans, or fans would request him to leave the group, and I could not risk that for him. It would have been a mess, and I think that is part of the reason I am so angry; he should have stayed away, should have taken the clean break, but now, he is risking it all.

Huffing out a breath at the frustrating thoughts circulating my head, I look through my schedule to get my mind off the matter, and to see where my meetings lead to, when something unique catches my eye. Texting my assistant to give me more details, I wait for her to come while I eye the event I am set to do in another 15 minutes.

"What's up Rose?" Alyssa enters with an armload of documents that she promptly deposits on the coffee table in my offices seating area and flops onto the couch. I raise an eyebrow at her but continue on.

"I was looking over the schedule for today, and saw something that has me a bit confused, what is this one about" I wave her over as I pull out my tablet for her to look over. Her eyes scan over to where I am pointing at, and they widen in recognition.

"Ahhhh. Yes, that, that is a unique one" she nods her head in agreement but still doesn't answer my original question.

"So, what does it mean, what does PCWSKP mean?" my patience has started to wear thin.

"OHHH, it means possible collab with south Korean pop" her answer is still confusing. What the heck does that mean? And why did she word is so oddly?

"Still confused here" I let her know.

"Well, there is this popular boy band from South Korea that has been making waves in the news lately, their manager publicist who is this odd man contacted us a few week ago and requested you specifically to work alongside with and the boss man..." her voice fades out as a shiver runs down my spine as the words run through my mind.

South Korean boy band, Lee's sudden appearance, Taehyung's appearance at my front door...

Knock, Knock, Knock...

"Oh, they're early!" Alyssa's voice brings me out of my thoughts as she opens the door. I feel my eyes widen as I drop my tablet into my lap as I meet the gazes of seven brown eyes that also looked shocked to see me, and one other that refused to look at me.

The tallest of them all, the one that warned me away from Tae, the one who knew my secret most stepped forward.

"Rose?" Looking up, his name exits my mouth.

"Namjoon?"

My eyes look over his shoulder to a pair of dark chocolate eyes, eyes that are filled with so many emotions, eyes that as I looked closer, are lined with worry and undereye circles. So unlike the eyes that are normally filled with warmth, light, and happiness, are now staring back at me like a man with dead eyes.
