"Uaghhhh!" Keira throws the flower pot beside her out the window as it burst. "Did you.. get revenge on him?"

"Don't worry, we already did." Tae laughs

"I feel better you got revenge. Let's go home."

Tae is the only one with a valid driver's license and drives them all home. Hoseoks license expired and Ellen and Anahita are pretty much 13 year olds.

There was an awkward silence until Keira spoke up. "Where's Jungkook?"

"He's not feeling well today so he won't be coming." Tae looks through his mirror.

"Okay.."

The car ride was pretty boring. Keira was sorta happy to be in the rusty home. Eventually they'll move out soon anyways, but still it felt nice.

"Okay me and Hobi here gotta get back to the studio. See ya." Tae and Hoseok both leave and Keira dives in face first on the couch.

"Keira. Are you okay?"

"I'm still feeling a bit down from what happened. I'm just, worried. I missed so much."

"You didn't miss anything. Weird why jungkook hasn't been coming to see us these days." Ellen ponders. Apparently Hoseok said he hasn't been coming to practice either.

"Maybe he wants a break? He's too tired?" Anahita shrugs.

"Yeah maybe." After a few minutes Keira gets up. "I'm gonna get some fresh air outside, maybe walk around a bit. I'll be careful don't worry." She grabs her coat and slips on her shoes.

"Do you want me to come with you?" Ellen asked. She knew that Keira needed alone time too.

"No. I'm fine."

Keira walks outside and passes by Big Hit entertainment of course. She ended up going there, because of Lauren.

'Damn it this Sejin dude.' Keira thinks as she keeps starring at the sign. She then enters the entertainment. And looks through the glass to see someone.

Twenty minutes ago

Jimin and Yoongi we're practicing as well as Namjoon.

"That's not how you do it." Jimin was teaching the rapper the dance move he did incorrectly.

"Don't be so hard on him." The leader lifts his chin to drink his water as thirsty as he was.

The door suddenly opened as Jungkook came in with Chloe.

"Chloe?!" Jimin stands up and starts to be wary. Of course Jimin was protective of the maknae even if he doesn't make it seem like so.

"Jimin don't. Chloe is here for a while and we would like to chat, but I'm afraid Keira would find us and get into misunderstanding."

Yoongi also wary stands up. "Why are you wanting to talk to someone so useless?"

"We we're going to talk about the debut plan for them and their suggestion for collaboration on the next showcase." Jungkook grinds his teeth.

The leader suddenly pops up. "Oh yeah! I was told we might do a collab."

"So let's all forget about the plans and move on! Speaking of which where are the others?" Chloe looks around.

"Hoseok and Tae are in the other practice room rehearsing rap. Jin is.."

No one answered and the silence was long.

Keira decided to step into the entertainment to take a stroll and see if she could bump into anyone familiar of Lauren's death.

She walked down the aisle checking each practice room to see if she could find anyone.

'I wonder how Jungkooks doing.' She thought as she kept walking. Keira saw at the end of the aisle, there was another one, and she saw jungkook pass by.

'Is this an illusion?' But she surely saw him and it was no mistake.

Jungkook on the other hand went to the convenience store across the street and bought some snacks for everyone. He was walking down the aisle as fast as he would because he was still nervous in case he'd get caught.

Keira kept following him from behind as Jungkook was speed walking to the room.

She looked into the room through the glass door and saw Jungkook with another girl, rubbing the girls cheeks as he laughed.

'Does he not like me anymore? Did he forget about me?'

After a while, Jungkook pinches chloes cheeks asking her is she's still alive as she was in a long daze.

"Of course I am!" She laughs back.

Jungkook then realized black oil which was smeared onto chloes cheek from Jungkooks hand.

"Sorry you got black oil on your cheek. I think the railing I held onto had some sorta black ink or something."

Jungkook tried to rub the oil off but instead made it worse. Just at that time, Keira looked through the glass and thought that Jungkook was having a great time without her.

Keira opens the practice room door and gives a little laugh. "Ha. Hahaha. What are you doing here jungkook? You haven't come visit me in two weeks, even after I left the hospital."

"Jungkook, who is this?" Chloe asks pointing at Keira.

Keira mutters, "pft, this? I have a name you know."

"She's my girlfrie-" but before jungkook could finish Keira was already in tears

"Why, are you crying?" Jungkook takes a step forward but Keira takes a step back.

"Why am I crying? That's funny ha." Keira aims to look at Chloe who was hiding behind Jungkook's arm.

"Tsk. I wish you the best in your future, together.." she runs out the door and out of the building as fast as she could.
