Melanie stood on the corner of a quieter part of Seoul, mostly occupied by older people, and couples who had settled into a quiet life. Feeling her hair dance to the soft wind behind her, she looked at those around her.

Oh how she wished she could've had a simple, ignorant life from the dark side.

"Moonbyul."

Melanie turned at the familiar face before staring them down.

"Yoon Oh."

"That name is dead to me." Jaehyun said.

"And so is Moonbyul. I don't care that we have a very big past, but that part of me is gone. I'm not Lee Moonbyul anymore, I'm Melanie Li." Melanie said.

"Why did you do this? I know you hated that life but you cut ties with everyone you knew. Do you know how fucked up in the head that made me? That my girlfriend had dissapeared out of nowhere and has been a missing person for 9 years? Do you know what did to me?" Jaehyun said, his voice laced with hurt and anger.

"Well I'm sorry. I cut ties with almost everyone because I wanted no ties to my family anymore, besides you were happy. You were the star athlete, you had loving parents, and you had a normal life set out ahead of you. Jaehyun, I never had that. I wanted that. So I left because I wasn't happy" Melanie's voice was much like Jaehyun's, low and steady, but dripping with poison.

"Okay, but why in hell did you have to come back here? If you wanted a normal life why the fuck are you coming to join the largest syndicate in Korea?"

"Because I missed Korea goddamit. Irene needed me here for a mission, and then Seulgi gave me the oppurtunity to join NCT."

"Seulgi? I thought you dropped all contacts with people?"

"I didn't with Seulgi. She was my best friend, and was also apart of the underground. Also, she was loyal to me, and not my father."

Jaehyun's nostrils flared, before opening his mouth once more.

"Take this as a warning. I will do anything in my power to stop you from joining my mafia. You might have hundreds off connections, a huge net worth, and the interest of my bosses, but that won't mean jack shit because all of us having been training every day for at least 3 years."

"We'll how that goes during the trials. I've changed a lot in the past nine years."

"What are you guys talking about?" The former lovers argument was cut short by the presence of Johnny, who had strolled over.

"It's all good, we were just discussing things about high school." Jaehyun said, starting to walk back to the car.

Melanie rolled her eyes slightly, as Johnny looked between the two.

"Highschool?" Johnny asked as he and Melanie fell into step behind Jaehyun.

"We were pretty close in Highschool. We just haven't seen each other in 9 years so, yeah." Melanie said.

Johnny raised a brow but said nothing, as the reached the car.

Melanie opened the car door, surprised to see another guy in the vehicle.

"Melanie, this is Renjun. He's one of our younger members." Johnny explained, gesturing to the boy sitting in the backseat, drinking a smoothie whilst scrolling through his phone.

"Nice to meet you." Melanie said, offering a small smile.

"You too. Good luck on the trials." Renjun responded in Mandarin.

Melanie smiled a little more, before speaking up lastly in Mandarin.

"Thank you."

Melanie engaged in a little small talk with Johnny, ignoring Jaehyun's moody attitude.
