She finds herself back at the casino that started everything.

The gilded cash machines ring out with sorrow and Solbi would feel like crying if she weren't wearing mascara.

The red plunge Versace dress was revealing but she felt like she was in funeral garb.

Solbi had unknowingly driven back to the casino, and so she's sitting at the bar, nursing a drink.

Management had welcomed her back with open arms, but she regretfully declined their offers of her past job.

She didn't know how long it had been before Kai slipped into the seat next to her.

She knew he was coming. She'd spent money on his card to buy the dress, after all, and that meant he could track her.

Kai tilts her head gently back to look at him, and she can only hear Luhan's words in her head.

Jongin plops down next to her.

"Beautiful, isn't it?"

She just smiles, a little sadly. He chooses that moment to kiss her.

The kiss felt good. It felt nice.

Why should she stop it?

She was sitting in the library next to Sehun's side, studying.

Jongin walks by with some gorgeous senior girl plastered onto his side and Solbi feels her chest tensing up.

They slip between the bookshelves and start making out in plain view in front of her.

She does everything she can to appear unaffected.
