'Secrets are not meant to be kept forever.
Tell me everything but the truth.'

"Then tell me, what are you hiding from us?" Bang PD stiffened his posture internally attacked by Kim Seok Jin's sudden presence inside the small room filled with table desks and chairs. It was as if he's being suffocated the moment he looked at Jin with his eyes filled with desperation and fury. The pressure and tension was tightened giving him a mental breakdown for a light second, causing his heart to beat rapidly.

"Jin." Manager Jigaemae approached the taller and took him lightly. He was gonna give him a hand when the idol aggresively removed it from his shoulders eyeing the smaller.

"Kim Seok Jin you have no right to disrepect your manager!" Hobeom scolded from behind while Jin was unaffected by any of it. He had an eye to eye with Hobeom who seemed to be really pissed by his behavior.

Sejin moved forward breaking the brutal atmosphere of the two. "Jin, you have your schedule early in the morning get back to your dorm this inst-"

"Just shut the hell up and answer me!"

Everyone felt baffled and confused. This isn't the usual Jin they knew. The three managers exchanged looks with one another calming themselves.

The male Idol stepped his left foot closer to the CEO who seemed to be getting more worried. His expression switched from an agressive to a sorrowfully angered one. "Bang PD nim? Is there something we need to know?"

The hitman felt pressured stepping a bit backward while the managers had nothing left to say but to remain quiet. "I thought your managers already told you about this?"

"Yes. We know that there's a new artist and that she's a female."

Jin blinked keeping his eyes half closed. He constantly eyed him and stared at those orbs, his lids shaking while their sights communicated with a lot of things hidden.

"Is that it?"

Silence. Bang PD gulped. He started sweating while he gripped his hands. "W-what are you talking about-"

"Then show us Black Pandora!"

The staffs looked down remaining silent. It was getting suffocating not only for the managers and the founder, but also for everybody else. For this kind of Jin is rarely seen. He's that youthful Hyung, but he's also the most terrifying in serious matters.

"Don't make me look innocent. I've seen everything. The lyrics, the music video, it all seems to say something suspicious."

The CEO continued denying. "Not now, Jin. You all have your plans to focus on."

"Plan? Oh, I know. Your plan is to turn down every other agencies and make a controversy out of it. Bang PD nim, come on, we already talked about this. We're not going to harm anyone just because we gained a reputation overseas, in fact we're going to promote friendship between other groups."

The hitman widened his eyes still processing how one of his sons accused him. He suddenly felt inferior, for his weakness will always be his boys.

"Jin, it's not like that, you're overthinking."

"You're lying."

"No, I'm not-"

"Then explain why the hell she's shading everybody else-"
