Three days passed after the big fight. It literally broke the group apart. EXO-M stopped coming, resuming their training in the Western palace. Only D.O., Lay and Tao remained their secret contact with Ah Young.

Ah Young also stopped talking to Dahye. General Byun had her remain as his daughter’s personal maid. Even though her disagreement, she has to listen to his orders.

“Kai, let’s play.” Sehun poked Kai. “What if we poof into the laundry room and…”

“Do you want to get drowned in a whirlpool by Suho hyung? This is not the right time to play.” Kai glared at his partner in crime. “But I’m bored! How long we have to keep this up?” Sehun whined. He turned to Suho. “Hyung, you’re the leader. Can’t you do something? Please…!”

Suho turned to the maknae who gave him a hopeful look, while looking cute at it. The maknae was known for his aegyo, and the nickname was not given for nothing. His childish charms were irresistible, even to the leader himself.

As the bed was situated right next to the window, she could see the dark night sky. No moon tonight, or was it hidden by the clouds? Just like Baekhyun said. I wonder what is he doing now. She recalled the heated argument.

“Yah! Who do you think you are? I won’t let you do as you please. I’m warning you!” Ah Young burst in anger. Her usual soft and bright expression changed to a dark one. It was a new side of her that she never seen before. Who knew she could be scary.

“What’s going on?” I saw Kris coming towards us. Just in time. I quickly turned my face to the other way. He touched my reddened cheek. “Why did you do that?” He glared at Ah Young. “Why don’t you ask her yourself?” I was s
