Meanwhile, in the other room, Sofia was having a similar conversation with Kyuhyun.  Super Junior KRY had a later schedule than everyone else, so those three would be the last to leave.

Sofia sighed loudly.  "This is so frustrating!"

"What's frustarating?" Kyuhyun asked, entering the room.

"Nothing!" Sofia answered hastily.

"I think its something.  Possibly Ryeowook?" said Kyuhyun.

"How did you know?" asked Sofia.

"Just a hunch.  You like him don't you?" asked Kyuhyun curiously.

"Yeah, but..."Sofia trailed off, whispering the last part to herself.  This did not go unnoticed.

"Hm?  Sorry, didn't quite catch that." Kyuhyun said, cupping his ear.

"I said that I'm scared." Sofia admitted.

"Scared of what?" asked Kyuhyun.

"Falling in love.  All it does is hurt." Sofia admitted.  Flashes of Zane passed through her mind; the beatings, the hurtful remarks, and her hospital stay after the breakup.

"I don't think you're scared of falling in love.  I think you're scared Zane will find out." observed Kyuhyun.

"You know what?  I think you're right." said Sofia.

"Zane is in the past.  Let Ryeowook be your present and furture." encouraged Kyuhyun.

"Ryeowook deserves someone who doesn't have a lot of emotional baggage.  Heck, I'm not even pretty or beautiful." said Sofia.

Kyuhyun grabbed her shoulders and shook her.  "Don't ever say that about yourself.  He likes you!  Not anyone else." Kyuhyun scolded her.

"Arraseo.  I still have one problem though: Zane." said Sofia.

"Leave him in the past." said Kyuhyun simply.

"No.  After Zane and I broke up, I dated Bo for a bit.  Zane found out and Bo ended up with a black eye, a bruised face, a broken arm, and a giant scar on his back." explained Sofia.

"Whoa.  Are you serious?  No wonder you won't let Ryeowook in.  You're actually protecting him." Kyuhyun said, shocked.

"Yeah.  I like Ryeowook too, but, until I get the Zane problem sorted out, we can't be together." Sofia explained sadly.

Kyuhyun thought for a moment.  Then, an idea hit him.  "Get together with Ryeowook.  If Zane finds out, we'll protect you two.  We have our ways." said Kyuhyun with a creepy smile.

"Okay.  I'll open up my heart to him and let it lead me." said Sofia.

After she said that, Yesung and Ryeowook entered the room.  Kyuhyun got up and joined them.  They told Sofia that they were heading to their schedules.  Ryeowook briefly pulled Sofia aside and told her that he had something to aske her later.  For the rest of the day, she pondered what it could be.
