JENNIE

I woke up with my head pounding in pain.

It was a familiar feeling I haven’t had in a while.

I slowly sat myself up.

I was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday.

Where’s my phone?

I looked around for my coat.

Then I realized,

I wasn’t in my room.

I panicked.

Where was I?

I found Raesung lying on the floor beside my bed. 

He was sleeping on the carpet.

Am I in his bedroom?

I got myself together as I tried to concentrate on recalling the events of last night - a post-drinking regimen I should have already mastered by now but still haven’t.

But I could only remember drinking by myself at the club while the guys left to dance with some girls.

How did Raesung and I end up together? 

Where’s the other guy?

The bedroom door suddenly flung open.

And a tall figure walked in carrying a tray with 2 glasses of what looked like honey water.

He was practically skinning me alive with his stare.

Hanbin.

What was he doing here?

I was so confused.

“Drink.” He ordered as he handed me a glass from the tray.

I eyed him suspiciously but took the glass anyway.

I sipped on the drink. 

Honey water. Just as I guessed.

There was an awkward silence as he watched me finish it.

Then he nodded in approval as I handed him back the empty glass.

“Thanks...” I stiffly shifted in my position, pretending to look around again before asking, 

“Wh-where am I?”

His forced calm expression instantly turned into shock.

And I already knew he was about to lose his cool.
