Bae Minjie:

I strech my body, feeling my energy being drain because of Jonwoo, the kid that I just played a while ago. It is good to know that despite the discrimination he is in, he can still trust people with his hyper attitude.

After Jonwoo fell asleep, the sky gets darker and darker. I realize that I need to go back to my room especially it is now very late at night.

When I reach at the hospital's station, I see Emily's figure and I quickly hide as I start to curse randomly.

She is singing silently and one sentence struck me, knowing she is thinking of me when singing this. It is Someone please show this child what love is. I already know that she have a great, dramatic and emotional voice that is suitable for ballad songs but this time, her voice sounds sorrowful making me a bit teary.

I want to walk away but somehow, my body isn't listening to me. My body become more relax and I lean to wall to sigh heavily. I cross my arms and close my eyes, immerse by her song choice.

Before I could cry, I quickly turn my back and head towards my room. I notice that my room-our room has its lights on. I furrow my eyebrows thinking how idols can stay so late at night. They have my respect since I always I close my eyes when I get the chance to.

I slowly open the door, incase if Jungkook is sleeping comfortably in the bright room. When I finally get the full view, Jungkook is sitting, crossing his legs as he glares at me.

"Do you even know how late it is? Even a child can go home on time." He roars like a lion. It is clear that he is so angry about it but the question is, why would he be?

I cross my arms still a bit angry when he walked away awhile ago as I say, "Well, even a child can wait someone or will walk someone's side beside them unlike you..."

"And why would I wait for you?" He says, demanding to know as he raise his voice. I gulp almost thinking he is having interest but I guess he is just worried since it might affect his career.

I decide to shrug and collapse in my bed. I can feel Jungkook's stare as I blush in embarrassment when my stomach growls in hunger, asking for food. I slowly look at him and smile nervously while he sighs and rakes his hair.

"I'll get some food. I can bring you food if you want." I eye him carefully. He looks at me like I am one of the dumbest humankind here in earth.

"If you want something, don't bother caring for what I want." He hisses and I look at him, admiring like an idiot even though knowing he is not giving me a compliment.

"I thought only girls are fiesty. Never imagine that boys can be one of us." I muse while he scoffs.

He stands up and notice his phone ringing. He answers the call while I keep quiet. I decide to scroll though Jungkook's fanbase groups secretly. Suddenly, he sighs angrily as the call ended. I arc my eyebrows.

"How's the call?" I try to say it flatly but he just ignore my words. Well, predictable. My stomach suddenly growls again but this time, it isn't that loud.

I look around the room to find an edible thing to eat. I notice how Jungkook's side is full of letters, flowers, gifts, medicines and fruits. I gulp, almost drooling at the fruits. It looks so fresh.

Suddenly, my head aches, remembering how my teacher used to abuse me. She wasn't like that when she didn't know my illness. Infact, I am her favorite student but once she did change, she changed so quickly that I couldn't adapt it. The reason why I quit school for good.
