“Miss Im Tae Hee, I’m sorry but I have to let you off from being the dean of broadcasting faculty,” the president announced.

The middle aged woman was shocked and confused, listening to the painful statement. Before she could digest the words she heard, her world slowly spun. She looked at Lee Seung Gi with her widened eyes before she fell on the floor, unconscious.

“Tae Hee,” Seung Gi, the president of Chungang University quickly approached her. He sighed when he noticed that she was unconscious. He turned to his secretary with a serious expression. “Call the ambulance,”

While waiting for the ambulance arrival, Seung Gi sat on his chair, looking at his secretary who just finished making the call.

“So, what makes you enter the room? I’ve told you that nobody is allowed which including you,” Seung Gi spoke in half-angry tone.

“Your son…” The middle aged man stuttered.

“What‘s with him?” Seungi softened his voice.

“He says he needs to meet you for an urgent matter,” the secretary continued more comfortably.

“Tell him that I’ll speak to him later,” Seung Gi replied as his eyes started to concentrate on the files on his working table.

“Yes, sir,” the secretary bowed and walked out of the room and noticed that Kikwang was not there. He sighed.

********

IU was laying on her bed, rolling to take her vibrating phone.

From: Suzy’s guy
Will you be in the campus today?

From: Lee Jieun
Yes, my class start at noon.

Kikwang read the text message he received while walking to the B2ST practice’s room.

To: Lee Jieun
You better come because everything starts today.

Kikwang shoved his phone into his pants pocket as he turned the knob of the door.

“Hello guys, I’ve a confession to be made and I need your help,” Kikwang announced when he entered the cold room and found five sweating guys with their wet cotton shirt.

“I thought you are coupling with that girl. Urgh! What is her name?” Junhyung frowned, trying to remember. He was sitting at the corner of the room, leaning his back at the mirror.

“Suzy,” Yoseob answered simply before he drank the plain water from the clear plastic bottle.

“I just break up with her yesterday,” Kikwang answered with a forced laugh. The obnoxious B2ST members believed the act except for Yoseob. However, Yoseob decided to keep quiet from the time being.

“So, who is the new girl?” Doojoon asked as he stood up, making his way to take a towel at the other corner of the room.

“Lee Jieun,” Kikwang proudly announced.

Yoseob was shocked to hear the name. That was the last name that he wanted to hear out from Kikwang.

“The popular newbie, who her mother is the popular actress?” Dongwoon asked, curious and excited.

Kikwang nodded his head confidently.

“There are rumours saying that her name is already in the musical list. Sadly, she fails the audition yesterday,” Hyunseung spoke out his thought bluntly, wiping his sweat with the white towel.

“Hyunseung hyung always keeps up with the news,” Dongwoon applauded. “But hyung…” Dongwoon turned to Yoseob who was silent since before.

“So, will you help me?” Kikwang asked, as the members didn’t look like they were excited to help him.

B2ST members turned their sight to Yoseob, as if they were asking for his approval.

“Why do you guys look at me like that?” Yoseob asked uncomfortable with the situation.

“Are you okay with it, hyung?” Dongwoon bravely asked.

***********

“B2ST is going to make a performance at the foyer,” a girl announced as she entered the class. Their lecturer was not arrived yet.

Suzy heard the announcement. She just turned her head away and landed it on her arms. IU sighed as she saw her bestfriend was still affected by yesterday incident.

“I will be going to their performance,” IU softly spoke out. She knew it will hurt her but that was a part of the plan.

Suzy quickly lifted her head up and turned to IU. She wanted to say ‘How dare you still want to watch that playboy that just hurt me?’ but she didn’t. “You want to see Yoseob?” Suzy asked bluntly although she knew the answer.

IU just nodded her head. “Will you come with me?” IU sounded almost pleading.

Suzy looked down, thinking. She had promised to forget him. Watching him for a few minutes won’t change her determination. She couldn’t let IU involve in her personal problem. Suzy smiled half-heartedly. “Sure,”

***********

People were gathering at the foyer waiting for B2ST arrival. They finally saw the boys from the upper level making their way through the stairs. They were wearing mostly white, white shirt and white pants. Crowds were cheering for them. Flashes were everywhere as the fans were making sure to have shots of their idols.

“Thanks for coming,” Doojoon spoke out when they finally lined up at the foyer. The crowds were making few steps backward, giving enough space for their favourite boys.

“You may want something exciting but somehow we come up with something cheesy today. No dance, no fast rhythm. Just us and our voices,” Doojoon explained as the crowd listened silently.

“I’m gonna make you love me,” Dongwoon started the song.

IU smiled, remembering this was the song that Yoseob sang to her at the camp. She was at the front line as she was good as squeezing herself among people and she managed to drag Suzy too. She felt bad that Suzy had to watch all this. Hope she will be fine.

It was Kikwang part and Kikwang made his way to IU. The crowds were screaming, shocked with their idol sudden action. Kikwang took IU’s hand and pulled her at the empty space. Everyone was shocked especially Suzy.

“There is someone that I like and to get her, I need to release you first,”

The sentence echoed in her head repeatedly. Those words were said by Kikwang when they were breaking up. She never though the person would be IU.

“I love you, Lee Jieun. Would you like to be mine forever?” Kikwang confessed at the end of the song, as he kneeled one of his leg.

IU turned her sight to Suzy who was sending sign for her to say no. IU sighed. “Yes,” she softly replied.

The crowds cheered listening to them. They were jealous but they knew that the new couple would break up soon since Kikwang was such a playboy. Still, they like him.

“I won’t mind being one of his girlfriends. I hope my turn is after her,” One of the girls spoke loud enough for Suzy to hear. She was gritting her teeth, trying to hold her anger. She quickly walked away from the crowds.

Yoseob saw Suzy was walking away and quickly rushed to chase her, leaving B2ST with IU.

Hyunseung wanted to stop him but he was too late. Everything has messed up. He thought, sighing.

**********

“Suzy, wait!” Yoseob managed to voice out although he was breathing heavily due to the sudden running.

Suzy stopped and turned around. “Stop chasing me,” she claimed. Her eyes were teary, she was crying. Suzy frowned, thinking that she would forget him but here she was, crying over a jerk.

“He is madly in love with you,” Yoseob took the advantage and made his steps closer to Suzy.

“He was,” Suzy corrected the statement.

“He is. I’m not sure why but he is avoiding me lately and it seems like he is doing this to further himself from you too,” Yoseob explained. He wanted to talk about this with Kikwang himself but he knew he won’t get the answer.

“He is just getting bored of me. Stop telling me such false words,” Suzy turned her sight away from Yoseob.

“I’m sorry,” Yoseob didn’t know how to convince Suzy. “But, I-I d-do..” He paused when he realized he was stuttering. “I do h-hope that you will still be I-IU bestfriend,” he managed to speak out.

Suzy smiled, listening to Yoseob’s words. “Don’t worry. I will. To make sure she has someone to lean on when that jerk left her,”

“Thanks,” Yoseob softly said, almost whispering.

“You too, should be by her side when that stupid jerk left her,” Suzy spoke out bluntly before she walked away, leaving confused Yoseob that was shocked, listening to her last sentence.

Did I just make Kikwang as the bad guy? Thanks for the comments and subscribes.
