"Boss the shipment has arrived."

"Thank you Gracie." I smiled at her before heading to the back. There it was, three big boxes of my newest products ready to be opened and sold although I remember only making two, though. I squealed in my head before opening them.

"Hey beautiful, let me open those for you."

"No Jiminie I got it." I chuckled while opening my boxes. "These are so cute." I said while picking up a couple of dresses. I continued opening the boxes and looking and clothes. "Last box." I said to myself before cutting it.

"I think someone needs you outside..." He said as I opened the box and furrowed my eyebrows. I picked up the white bag substance and put it back down, crossing my arms.

"Close my door." He did as I said as I walked around to the front of my desk. "Jimin why did I just open a box of drugs?"

"I-it's was a mistake-

"Are you sure, or is it a mistake that you got caught." He was quiet. "I said I didn't want my shops to be another cover for your trades!" I ranted.

"I know and I'm sorry." I bitterly chuckled.

"You know what, I can't deal with this right now, the funeral is tomorrow... you get that shit out of here, I'm going to check on the rest of my inventory." I walked out of the office kind of irritated.

How long until my shop that I worked so hard for becomes dangerous, and he wants me to have a child... arghhhh!!

[the next day]

"You sure you don't need to go to the funeral with you for support."

"Yes I'm sure, I got Sher and Elle and you can stay here with Jungkook and do whatever.. love you." I kissed his forehead before leaving hotel room.

I got a text from Sher that she would meet us there since she checked in a different hotel from Sher and I. I was thinking maybe it would be a good idea to go to Shownu's place before we go there, just to be on his side supporting him.

Jimin

I found it strange that Angel, didn't want me to go to the funeral with her, I feel like something is wrong or something bad is going to happen so I'm think I'm going to follow her just in case.

Wonho

We waited for Sherris to come to the parking lot before we grabbed her. Such a shame.. she should have stayed with her friends.

"There she is." He's right.

"Let's go." We got out the car and headed towards her trying not to look suspicious so she'll run away. "Excuse me!" I called after her making her turn around. "You're Sherris, Hyun-woo's friend right?"

"Who's asking?"

"We were looking for directions to the funeral, wanting to pay our respects."

"Well you can follow me." She smiled and turned around unlocking her car door. "Ahhh- Hyungwon took out his cloth and drugged her. She kicked and fought but in the end she fell unconscious.

"Such a shame... put her in the trunk and let's get out of here." He nodded as we went to get her and take her back to Korea.

Angel

Many people showed up, I guess Katherine was really loved. It's so sad, an angel gone to soon. While we were there I noticed Sher, missing. I tried texting her but I got no response.

I couldn't help this feeling that something bad has happened but I tried to shake it off. She's probably with Namjoon since they all came here with Jimin.

Shownu got up on the podium and spoke a few loving words about Katherine and her time on Earth. I really wish it didn't have to be that way. His happiness gone, in a second.

"There's still no sign of Sher and she's not answering my texts." Elle whispered in my ear.

"We'll go by after this service." I whispered back. Gosh, now I'm starting to get nervous.

"If that is all the people that want to speak, it is time for the burial." This is always hard, watching someone being lower into the ground. I know she died of natural causes but I just wish she had more time. Shownu walked away as she went further down and I followed him, along with Elle.

"I-I can't!" He broke down as I hugged him tightly.

"Why is Namjoon here?" Elle whispered to me. My head shot up as I looked around. Holy fuck! She's right... My heart was on the floor as I mentally prepared for the conversation that was bound to happen later.

"I'm going to try and call Sherris." I nodded as I to started to tear up without realizing it. My head was pounded and mind my was going blank. "No answer."

"O-okay, uhm, Shownu, we'll let her family take it from here, we should get you home." I suggested.

"N-no, I need to be here... I'll be okay."

"I'll be back soon, to check on you I promise."

"Okay." I kissed his cheek before leaving with Elle.

Jimin

"I'm sorry Jimin." I nodded my head as anger filled my whole body. I looked up to see the girls running inside their car and I already knew where they were headed.

"Are you going to follow them?" Jungkook asked.

"They're headed back to the hotel." I said as I gripped the stirring wheel til my knuckles turned white. "Hyung drive." I got out the car and joined Jungkook in the backseat.

"I'm pretty sure it's a reasonable explanation for this." Namjoon advised.

"My wife, have been protecting the same person that tried to kill me, I don't see any reason, and if it is one, I don't want to hear it." I gritted through my teeth. He nodded while starting the car and heading towards the hotel.

Angel

She's still not answering our calls and now we're standing outside of her hotel room knocking on the door but she's not answering.

"Sher! SHERRIS! Open up, we know you're in there, your car is still in the parking lot!" Elle yelled. I signaled for her to keep quiet because I heard someone walking towards us. It was a janitor but I'm sure they have keys to all the rooms.

"Hi, excuse me, I got locked out of my room, my key is literally on the dresser, can't you like, open it for me." I asked politely.

"Sure." I smiled kindly as she swiped the key card. "Have a nice day." I waved while we entered the room.

"Why didn't I think of that?" She whispered more to herself. I turned on the lights and took a look around the room, all over it. "She's not here." She said as I came out of the bathroom.

"Yeah, no shit, where could she be?"

"No I mean she's not here." She held up a card with writing on it. I walked towards her and snatched out of her hand.

Which friend means the most to you? Sherris or Shownu? Tell Shownu to come home and you can have Sherris, alive.

I looked at the note front and back trying to figure out clues of who could have sent this but all I see it a small seal.

"Who's MX?" I clenched my jaw.

"I know who." I stormed towards the door but as soon as I got there I came face to face with.. "Seulgi?" She had a gun in her hand and pointed behind me.

"Miss me?"

BANG!

"Ahhhhahaaaa!!!" She screamed in pain.

"ELLEEEEE!!" I tried to run towards her but Seulgi held me back. I was about to smack her until she spoke.

"Ah ah... Do what I say and your friend gets to live, Queen."
