"So, where do you live?" Taemin asked, loitering a few steps behind the other two.

"Ya! Put on your sunglasses before you get noticed!" Onew ordered, unwrapping the pair that Sojin had given him. "Waaaaah, these are daaaaaebak!"

The idol removed his arm from the boy and placed the shades on his head. Turning to Sojin, he tilted his head and put on an angry face.

"Do I look tough?" he said, managing to hold the face for a brief moment before all three burst out laughing.

"Eh...good try," Sojin laughed, with Taemin nodding in agreement. The maknae poked the boy's arm a few times, trying to get his attention.

"Sojin hyung! Where do you live? Let's go before it gets late!"

"Oh! I live near Gangnam station!" the boy replied, before wagging his finger in Taemin's face. "Hyung?! How old do I look?! We're the same age!"

Taemin let out a surprised gasp, then switched to non-honorific speech. "Oh! I just assumed...hehe, sorry, Sojin-ah! Now let's get a move on! Your apartment isn't that far away."

The dancer eagerly hopped behind his new friend and pushed him towards the subway station stairs. Sojin couldn't help but laugh at how perky the maknae always was. However, his smile instantly faded as he caught site of something at the bottom of the stairs. Staring straight up at the trio, unblinking, stood the crazed girl from the fanmeet. The twenty-year-old immediately froze on the top step, causing Taemin to smash into him and topple backwards.

"Ya! What are you doing!" the maknae asked, standing back up and brushing himself off. Out of the corner of his eye, Sojin could see that Onew, too, had spotted the girl. The black-haired boy stood frozen, unsure of what to do. Taemin, peering over his new friend's shoulder, finally caught sight of what had frozen the other two. 

"Wah! It's the crazy girl!" the youngest member shouted, pointing directly at her. Sojin refrained from facepalming at the maknae's lack of volume control. 

Turning to Onew, Sojin suggested that the trio use one of the other entrances to the station. The other two nodded and the boys began to walk away, but stopped in their tracks as the girl let out a screaching, "YA!"

Sojin closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, taking a deep breath, before turning around to face the girl. 

"Ya! Come down here, you bastard! I have something to tell you!" she screamed, pointing to the ground next to her. The girl's long black hair looked quite toussled, as if she had gotten into another fight, and her outfit showed a few rips. The boy could almost see an aura of rage emanating from the girl. Sojin looked back at his two companions.

"...I'm gonna go see what she wants. Don't come down with me or she might end up going crazy over you guys!" the boy stated. Taemin and Onew nodded their agreement and watched as their friend slowly descended down the steps. Landing at the bottom, Sojin strode over to the girl, stopping a few feet away. The boy tried to hide his nerves and put on an emotionless face.

"Yes...?" he asked, expectantly. The girl immediately closed the space between them, grabbing onto his collar and moving to his ear. Sojin winced at the sudden move, but didn't flinch. At the top of the stairs, Taemin immediately started towards the bottom, but Onew grabbed his arm.

"If you go down there and she knows its you, she might get even crazier. You heard what Sojin said!" the leader exclaimed, pulling Taemin back up to the top step. "We'll go down if she attacks him again!"

Taemin pouted, crossing his arm, and continued to watch the scene unfold. Meanwhile, the girl finally began to speak, whispering her message into the boy's ear. Sojin rolled his eyes behind his sunglasses. This girl was way over-dramatic. It was as if he was in a drama or something. Still, he listened closely to what she had to say.

"Do you know who I am?" she whispered. 

"No, not a clue," the boy retorted.

"Well, maybe you should do some research before you get into other peoples' business."

"Wasn't it you who --"

"Let me tell you exactly who I am and exactly what's going to happen to you. You see, you little brat, I'm the Yakuza leader's daughter. I'm not ing Korean. Now, do you understand what's going to happen to you when daddy hears that a boy got into a fight with his little girl?"

The black-haired girl pulled back and looked into Sojin's now fearful face, a smile spreading across her own. "You can ask the security guard that you had take me away.....if you can find him."

Finally, the girl released the boy's collar and began to walk past him. Pausing for a moment, she added, "Oh, and anyone that tries to help you can be considered as good as dead, including your parents, or even those Shinee brats for all I care."

Sojin heard her let out a small laugh and her heels click away, but remained frozen, staring at the spot where she had been. The boy clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, resisting the urge to freak out. Was she serious? She couldn't be serious...what would the daughter of the Yakuza's leader be doing in Korea? Not to mention a Shinee fanmeet? The boy was snapped out of his thoughts as Onew and Taemin rushed towards him, Onew placing his hand on the boy's shoulder as Taemin excitedly questioning what the girl had said. The maknae's excited grin faded as Sojin recounted the story to them. 

"WHAT?!" Onew shouted, drawing numerous looks. "That's impossible!!"

"Yeah! There's no way! She has to be lying!" Taemin confirmed, nodding his head vigorously. "Besides, you didn't even do anything that bad to her! She's obviously just insane!"

Sojin felt a jolt of worry, but slowly nodded in agreement. "Yeah, you're right. There's no way that could be true," he agreed. 

The trio soon made it back to Sojin's apartment -- Onew having paid for the boy's subway trip -- and stopped in front of the highrise's door. Onew placed his hand on the boy's shoulder, seeing that Sojin was still uneasy, and gave it a gentle squeeze.

"Don't worry! Nothing's gonna happen...there's no way that could be true," the idol stated, still holding onto the boy's shoulder.

"I hope so..." Sojin replied, glancing worriedly at Taemin. The youngest member was fiddling with his phone, looking as if he was trying to figure something out. Onew tapped him on the head, snapping him back to the situation at hand.

"Well...I guess this is it. It was definitely an adventure hanging out with you today! And thanks again for the sunglasses!" Onew exclaimed, bringing his signature smile back to his face. "I'm sure we'll see you again at some point!"

He opened his arms for a hug. Sojin smiled and accepted, giving the idol a quick hug, but knew the chances of them meeting again were slim. Looking to Taemin, the maknae offered an unusally small wave goodbye. Sojin grinned and waved bye as well, trying to hide his fear. He watched as the two departed down the sidewalk and around the corner. With a sigh, he pulled out his key and swiped to unlock the door, but paused before he entered as something caught his eye. Taemin came running back around the corner, all the way back up to the boy. 

"I told Onew hyung that I dropped something here, but I really just wanted to give you my number! Quickly!" the idol said, grasping for Sojin's phone. "Just in case, ya know? Text me if something happens! Not that it will! Don't worry!"

Sojin's eyes widened as he handed his phone to the maknae. He was getting a Shinee member's number? This day was so unreal. The idol handed his phone back to him, giving him a big smile and repeating that everything would be fine.

"Taemin...thank you!" he exclaimed, giving the dancer a quick hug. "I feel better now. And I'll see you again sometime! But you'd better go before Onew gets suspicious. Look after that kid for me!"

"You got it! I'll see you later!" the maknae said, waving before running back towards the corner. Sojin smiled and waved back at him, then swiped into his apartment building, greeting the doorman with a happy smile. Arriving back in his flat, he looked around cautiously then quickly all the lights and bolted the door shut. 

"What are you so worried about? You live on the 12th floor. And they have no idea where you live. She probably wasn't even telling the truth!" the boy said, trying to talk himself out of it. He paused for a moment, as a thought came to his head. "And at least you don't live with mom and dad anymore, so they'll be fine if she somehow was telling the truth."

The boy ate a quick dinner then watched videos on Youtube until he began to nod off. Closing his laptop, he placed it on his desk, and jumped onto his bed. He pulled out his phone and plugged it into its charger, placing it on the table next to his bed, then remained sitting for a bit. He stared out the window, thoughts starting to form again. Could someone break into his window? It was pretty large. What if they somehow got through his front door? 

Sojin shook his head. Was he really even considering this? Still, he quickly checked to make sure his window was locked, then locked the door to his bedroom. Finally, after a few more minutes of worrying he slipped under his blankets and closed his eyes. The boy fell asleep surprisingly quickly, tired from the busy day.

The next few days continued normally, and the boy eventually forgot about the girl and her threat. However, on the third day since the incident, he was awoken by a knock on the door. Rubbing his eyes, he picked up his phone to check the time. 2 A.M.?! Who was knocking at this hour? Suddenly, the boy remembered the whole situation from the subway station. Gasping, he dropped his phone and grasped his comforter tightly, seeing if the person would leave. Again, the knock came, this time a bit more violently. 

"Oh my god, oh my god...what do I do?!" the boy whispered to himself, grabbing his phone again. He quickly located the maknae's number and typed out a panicked message that someone was at his door. Slipping the phone into his pocket, he swung his feet over the side of his bed and went to his bedroom door.

"It's probably just the doorman or something...I don't wanna worry Taemin for nothing," he whispered to himself, unlocking his bedroom door and stepping out into the hallway. The knocking seemed to have ceased, so the boy rushed towards the door, trying to take the opportunity to look out of the peephole. Placing his eye to the door, he peered outside. No one. Pulling back, a puzzled look crossed his face. Suddenly, the loudest knocking of all came, shaking the bolt on the door. 

"Yaaa!" the boy screamed, falling backwards, but getting up just as quickly and running to his bedroom. This time the knocking wouldn't stop. Just as he made it into his bedroom, he heard the bolt give out and the door splinter open. Slamming his bedroom door closed and locking it, he ran to the corner of his room and checked his phone. Taemin had surprisingly replied. "What?! Run! Meet me at the corner! I'm on my way now!" Sojin slid his phone back into his pocket, his heart beating out of his chest, as the pounding began on his bedroom door.
