Stuck With You

A moment after receiving a call from a stranger, the girls headed to the seniors’ dorm. Jeongyeon talked to Jennie and Jisoo, asking them to take charge of their dorms while they visited Nayeon.

Nayeon was still unconscious when they arrived. Jeongyeon couldn’t stop her tears from falling as she looked at her lover.

As everyone sank into their own thoughts, the door suddenly opened, revealing Eunha and Elkie.

“Girls, we got information about Nayeon’s incident. It wasn’t an accident, someone hit her head, and it happened inside the school campus,” Eunha said, shocking them.

“Wait, if it happened in school, then why did they bring her here? There’s another hospital near JYPU,” Jeongyeon asked.

The two girls simply shrugged and handed them Sana’s phone and Nayeon’s white cap.

“We checked the CCTV footage. Someone took Sana, and Nayeon tried to help her, but another person suddenly came and hit Nayeon’s head,” Elkie explained.

“There were three people involved in Sana’s kidnapping, but we couldn’t identify them. They were wearing hoodies and masks, and the car they used didn’t have a plate number,” Eunha added.

“I have a really bad feeling about this,” Tzuyu said. “I’m sure it wasn’t an outsider. No one can enter JYPU unless there’s an important event.”

“Exactly,” Elkie agreed. “If they were outsiders, escaping through the gate would’ve been difficult. But they did it smoothly, which means they know every corner of the school.”

“But who would kidnap Sana?” Jeongyeon asked.

“She doesn’t have any enemies,” Chaeyoung said.

“Wait. That’s it,” Momo suddenly said. “She doesn’t have enemies, but a lot of people are interested in her.”

“I’m a hundred percent sure it’s not Wang,” Tzuyu said firmly. “As for Mark, he confessed once, but when Sana rejected him and told him we were dating, he stopped bothering her.”

“I don’t know, Tzu,” Chaeyoung replied. “Sometimes what we see isn’t what it really is.”

Sighing, the cub spoke again.
“I just hope nothing bad happened to her. I don’t know what I’d do with myself. Sana’s always been there for me, but I couldn’t even protect her like I promised,” Chaeyoung said, her voice breaking.

“Be strong, Chae. We have to be strong,” Tzuyu said, rubbing her back. “I promise we’ll find her.”

Meanwhile, Sana’s arms were tied, and her eyes were blindfolded.

“Where am I?” she asked as she regained consciousness. She struggled against the ropes, but her efforts were useless. Footsteps echoed closer.

“My princess is finally awake,” a man said.

“Who are you?” Sana asked.

“Ouch. You don’t recognize me?” he said dramatically as he sat beside her.

“I’m the one who truly loves you, the one you rejected because of Chou Tzuyu,” he said, lifting her chin.

“M-Mark…” Sana whispered, pulling away from his touch.

“Yes, baby?” he said, glancing at his wristwatch.

“I’m sorry, Sana, but you need to sleep again. It’s getting late, and staying up isn’t good for your health.”

He covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief until she lost consciousness again. He kissed her forehead and left the room.

The next morning, Jihyo returned with Mina, planning to surprise their friends. Unfortunately, everyone was at the hospital.
