"Hyung what's wrong?"

Yunho scratched the back of his head in worry and confusion. "I called BoA to talk because we’ve been here since forever, but she just kept crying. She didn't tell me why."

Yunho sighed, approaching to sit beside him on the couch. Not long after, Yunho’s phone rang. Yunho looked at his phone, amused and confused.

“BoA yah?” he picked the call up.

“Yunho,” she immediately said, “I’m sorry.”

“BoA?” Yunho asked in concern when he heard that BoA was still crying. He stood up and turned around with his back facing Changmin. “BoA yah, just tell me what’s wrong.”

“I’ve-” BoA sniffed in and whispered, “I’ve fallen for Kangta oppa.”

BoA bit her lip and waited for Yunho’s answer. Yunho shut his eyes in shock and sorrow and clenched his fists.

“Hyung what’s wrong?”

“I’m sorry Yunho-”

“No, don’t say sorry,” he said, trying to be calm although he could feel slight anger rising up in him. “It’s alright BoA,” he inhaled deeply, and walked into corner in the room, wanting silence for himself and BoA.

“Have you thought through this?” he asked.

BoA sniffed between sobs. “I don’t know, but I’m not in the right state to be with you now,” she reasoned, “let’s just be friends. Best friends, we can be right?” he heard BoA sniff, “let’s just go back to being best friends. We can still share our sorrows, have our heart-to-heart talks, just… Not as lovers.”

“Alright,” he said, “but if you wanna come back, I’m always here. I’ll still love you and I’ll love you forever.”

“Gomawo, Yundol,” she said in a soft whisper.

“Please come back,” he mouthed the words that turned into a barely audible whisper, but BoA could swore that she heard it. Hanging up the phone, both parties broke down into more tears.

"Taeyeon, I’m sorry.”

BoA’s last sentence to her rang inside her head repeatedly. It wasn’t BoA’s fault. It was her fault for dragging BoA into this. Not only had she hurt her feelings, she had also brought her relationship with Yunho to a crisis. BoA was busy with preparations for a comeback and filming of Kpop Star, and then this happened, it was probably going to ruin it. Guilt was written all over her, and she haven’t been able to overcome the remorse that had been in her for the past two weeks.

Taeyeon remembered how BoA was crying and crying after they met Kangta. She was crying non-stop, and was also repeatedly murmuring apologies before the final apology that was ringing in Taeyeon’s head.

“Oh Taeyeon,” she heard someone call her from behind; that one person who had meant so much to her but was then reduced to just a ‘someone’.

“O-Oppa,” she turned around to face the very person she did not want to face. The two of them looked down at the ground in awkwardness. Taeyeon was also starting to feel a slight heartache as she remembered all the hurt the man in front of her had brought to her.

“How are you?”

“Oh, I’m fine,” Taeyeon said as she continued fiddling with her fingers. “You?” she asked, not wanting the atmosphere to stay awkward.

“I’m alright, just busier recently,” he answered, “I’ll be enlisting soon too.”

“Oh.” Taeyeon nodded her head in acknowledgement. Just then, Leeteuk’s phone rang.

“Manager hyung?”

“Where are you? Let’s meet at the company building-”

“I’m right here at the company building, hyung,” Leeteuk responded.

“Alright, then meet now. You have to leave for filming soon,” his manager reminded him that he had another episode of WGM to film.

Leeteuk nodded his head.

“I have to go,” Leeteuk told Taeyeon after the call ended. Taeyeon saw him turn around and his back trail off in the distance.

“Taeyeon unnie?” Taeyeon turned around to see Sooyoung.

“Yeah Soo?”

“Uh, we should go. Seohyun-”

“What happened to her?” Taeyeon asked in shock at the mention of the maknae.

“Nothing, I was just saying that she’s rushing us,” Sooyoung answered and Taeyeon heaved a sigh of relief.
