Without any hesitation Taeyong ran out of the room and took the stairs straight to Seulgi's hotel room. He knocked on the door several times but got no answer. "Seulgi! It's me! Please, open the door!" he shouted but got no answer.

"I am so, so sorry for what I said earlier today. I'm sorry that I let my anger out on you. Those words I told you, I never meant them. Seulgi, you are not a burden, you never were. I'm actually thankful, I'm thankful that you took good care of me when I was sick, I'm thankful for trusting you when you catched Jackson. And, once again, I'm so sorry."

Taeyong waited by the door for a few more seconds and had yet once again not gotten a reply back or at least a sign that Seulgi had heard his apology.

"Seulgi, please, at least show me a sign that you heard me," he said and waited for a sign like he was waiting for a sign from God.

"Excuse me, sir," a cleaning lady said to him and he immediately got out of the way for her to pass by him, but he got confused when she opened the door to Seulgi's room. He managed to get a peek in the room and saw that no one was in there. "Where is she then?" he thought and went back to his room and told Joohyun and Youngho that Seulgi wasn't there.

---------------------------------------

Seulgi smiled as she heard Taeyong's apology from her ear piece. She had kind of expected it after Joohyun went away and decided to put a microphone by the hotel door. She also messaged Joohyun to tell her that she was going to the fashion show with Jennie and that she would meet them there.

"What are you smiling about?"

"Huh?" Seulgi said and turned to Jennie. The two of them decided to meet up just before the fashion show and just explore the city and walk down the streets. "Oh, nothing," she said and took off her ear piece.

"Could it be a certain, oh I don't know, Lee Taeyong that you're smiling about?" Jennie teased and earned a playful hit on the arm from Seulgi.

"Shut up," she smiled, "Okay, maybe," she then said when Jennie wiggled her eyebrows at her.

"I wonder what it feels like to be in love," Jennie sighed as the two girls were walking past some clothing stores.

"Tssk, I'm not in love, it's just a small crush," Seulgi said.

"Yeah whatever, in love or a crush, same thing,"

"I don't think so, but sure,"

"I actually think he kind of likes you. Not like, in love or something, but you know, a small crush. I saw how he looked at you yesterday when he was out with his friend and they were discussing camera angles or something."

"Didn't you just tell me that in love and a crush were the same thing?"

"Oh my gosh. Sana's way of thinking and talking has really gotten to me lately, hasn't it?"

"Oh trust me, it really has."

----------------------------------------

"Okay, you walk in that way and I'll go and meet up with my colleagues."

"Got it," Jennie said and walked in to the building where the fashion show was held.

"Hey! Seul!"

Seulgi turned around and saw Joohyun waving at her while the guys were still waiting in the car. She waved back and went to them.

"Hey Seulgi," Youngho said as he got out of the car, "Where were you the whole time?"

"Oh, I had to run some errands with the police, telling them to be prepared for Kim Jennie." Seulgi said with a smile and saw Taeyong getting out of the car behind Youngho.
