Scared for the wellbeing of her daughter Pamella rushed to grab the house phone. She called the only person she could think of. The endless rings made her bite her nails anxiously. “Hello.” Finally, Krystal’s voice made her breath a bit easier.

“Krystal?” Pamella’s could hear the frantic fear in her own voice as she said the girl’s name. “This is Lonna’s mom.”

Jin became worried as he watched the color drain from Krystal’s face as she listened to the caller talk. “Don’t worry.” Krystal said. “We will find her.” After a short goodbye she hung up the phone.

“Who was it?” Jin asked as Krystal suddenly started to frantically search the slightly messy living room. The tension he could see in her body language worried him. “Krystal, what is going on?” He asked.

“Where is my coat? I thought I hung it by the door, but it isn’t there.” She said ignoring Jin’s questions as she continued to zoom around the room. “I put it right there, why isn’t it there?!” She screamed and started to throw the couch pillows around the room. Jin quickly moved to stop her, worried that in her state, she might hurt herself. Despite his unusually firm grip on her shoulders Krystal seemed to be fighting to get free. “I have to find my coat!” She screamed at him. “I have to go!”

“Why? Krystal calm down.” Jin said as he pulled her close to him and protectively wrapped his arms around her. To his shock, Krystal instantly broke down.

“Suga is going to Italy. Lonna’s mom broke the news to her and she ran off.” Krystal said through her sobs. Fear of his own swept over Jin. He tightened his hold on his crying girlfriend.

“We will find her.” He said, and without another thought to finding the missing coat, they both ran out the door, praying they would find Lonna soon.

Lonna ran until her legs felt like they were about to collapse. Finally, stopping she took in deep breaths to try and alleviate the pain in her chest. Her eyes became blurry as she looked hopelessly across the Hans River to the sun dropping over the horizon. It had become horribly apparent by her rapidly falling tears that the pain she had tried to run from, had caught up to her. The realization was too crushing to bear. She knew deep down that Suga might leave, but the painful part was the small hope her heart held in the promises he had made her.

The conversation they had shared on the farris wheel, ran through her mind. “I just wish the people I love would stay with me. That’d be enough.” Suga said.

Lonna smiled bright up at him. “Your wish for people you love to stay…does it include me?”

Suga locked as with her, as he let a smile of his own show. “Of course it does.”

Lonna cried harder as the feeling of betrayal took over. Hardly able to control her emotions anymore, her legs started to shake, making her quickly grab on to the railing of the stairs to try and keep herself standing. “Why does he never choose me?!” She cried out. She finally gave over to the despair she felt.

Suga drove his bike as slow as he could because the closer he got to home the more scared he became. He knew that Lonna wouldn’t take the news well, and more than likely she would try to mask her feelings from him. The thought hurt him, that she wouldn’t be honest with him, but also the thought of her breaking down and hating him was an even worse scenario. He turned his head and watched as the moon reflected over the shining surface of the river, but as he passed, a familiar person came into his view. Wondering why Lonna would be this far from home made him pull over.

Once he took his helmet off his chest tightened as he glanced over at her. Jisoo’s warning ran over his mind. She was right, Lonna had the right to question him, but he wondered what would happen if he answered. He bit his lip in nervousness “Lonna!” He called out to her.
