“Hey superstar, you’re on the news here!”

“Really?  What are they saying?”

“Oh just that you were seen with a South Korean mega star and how he’s pushing you in the market because you injure yourself.  Hey, you sure you don’t want to be an actress.”

“James!”  She whines

“Oh, and YG release a statement and they briefly mention that you’re there for work.  They’re much more interested in the boy.”

“Aren’t they always…”

“Seriously though, is there anything between the two of you?  You’re really comfortable around him from the tabloid pictures and videos.”

“I-I…James, I’ve never felt this way before.”  She confess, scared and worried.

“Like I belong, like I have someone to come home to.  But James! I-“

“No.” He cuts in, “No.  Do not go down that path Sandara.  You deserve happiness.”

“James…”

“Do you like this boy?”
