“Sung-ah” I greeted.

“Chunmi!” he exclaimed. I gave a laugh.

“Ya, sorry for not being able to reply to your messages. I've been busy at school” I lied.

“Ah.. it's okay. I understand” he replied.

“Are you feeling okay? Nothing's wrong with you, right?” I asked

“Yeah, I'm alright thanks for caring. What's wrong?”

“Aniya, it's just that there's a lot from my class who caught a flu or something”

He laughed, “You should worry about yourself more”

“De,” I chuckled. He tried to laugh but he failed, “Hey,” he called

“Yup? What is it?” I asked. I heard him sigh, “Look, Chunmi.. if.. if ever you have a problem with me. Just say so.. okay? I would understand it. Just don't av--”

“Sung, I've got no problem with you. You're not a burden to me or anything.. okay? I wasn't trying to avoid you. I was just too busy with stuffs within the past week” He was left speechless, so I decided to end the talk.

“I guess you're busy, let's say good bye for now” I said.

“N-No, I'm not that busy! We should talk more.. I want to talk a little longer” he said.

“What do you mean you're not busy?? We're in the middle of a photo shoot Ho Sung” I heard someone from the other line. I laughed at him, “Not busy huh?” I teased.

“Okay fine you caught me,” he paused then took a deep breath. “I'll message you later”

“De, okay Sung. Work hard” I cheered then we ended the call.

“You should really try auditioning in our company, you have a potential in acting” he applauded.

I looked at him “Thanks for noticing Kyung”

He nodded as he crossed his arms and asked, “Okay, so what's going on?”

I shook my head, “Nothing's going on” I replied. “Stop lying” he said.

“Just take me home” I insisted. He shook his head.

“So.. you're just going to keep me captive inside your car?” I asked

He nodded, “It's too risky to hang out, and you might run off”

“Geez, you might as well just tie me up”

He chuckled, “You like playing those kinds of games?” then gave me a funny look.

I hit his shoulder, “Ya! I don't! Don't think of crazy things like that!” He laughed at me.

My head started to throb in pain again as I suddenly remembered the tight grip from our attackers.

“Chunmi, what's wrong?” he asked. I held my forehead as I shook my head, “It's nothing” I replied weakly. He grabbed my wrist. I felt an even stronger pain from my head.

“Ugh” I grunted. I couldn't stop the pain. “Chun Mi!” Kyung was starting to panic.

“Let's go to the hospital!” he ordered the driver. I shook my head, “A-Aniya.. Just take me home”

He looked at me.. “Please” I begged as my eyes started to water. He suddenly hugged me.

“I'm not letting you go” he said, then hugged me tighter. “Kyung-ah” I said, he shook his head.
