With just four days left until you leave Seoul again, you waste no time in preparing a new course of action for Prakriti, involving only a small core team from the foundation that you trusted. You knew what you had to do, and you were ready to do it. But there was one other person who deserved to hear about your plans.
"Seyeon. We're doing it," you say as you sit by your usual window seat at the forum.
"Doing what?" Seyeon asks, confused.
"Prakriti," you say, "Let's organize a campaign. The team of scientists and designers are doing some pretty innovative work - I think I owe them my full, public support."
"What - really?" Seyeon's eyes light up.
You spend the next two hours coming up with a probable plan to incorporate the foundation into your existing brand.
"I'll update the PR team," Seyeon informs you as you prepare to leave.
"Yeah. But first, I have to address a board meeting - make my humble introduction. And there are some administrative changes we need to vote on."
"I see - you're going to vote to remove DK, aren't you?" she smirks.
"Sort of. He hasn't actually embezzled any money yet - so I won't - can't - kick him out. But he isn't competent enough to lead the organization either. So, we're going to shuffle things a bit. I seriously hope it works..." you finish nervously.
"I'm sure it will. DK's incompetence is obvious even without you giving a speech on it," she mutters, "you should focus on the board meeting while we'll work on a press release for later..."
Meanwhile, you mull over what Mom said when you and Monica met her the day before. She had finally taken out time to have a video conference with you both and shared some interesting news - and a plan. It matched well with what you had in mind.
Monica meets you in the atrium.
"You both look pumped," she says as a matter-of-factly.
You, who have just power walked out of the elevator with Seyeon in tow, give her a hug.
"I think I'm finally doing the right thing," you grin.
The three of you are suddenly distracted by a lot of screaming fans from Yeongsan street outside. The glass windows reveal three black SUVs in front of the entrance, from which descend two exceptionally well-dressed men. Within two seconds, they're inside the atrium, leaving behind a trail of shrieks and shutter clicks. You're now used to this public entry routine. Every now and then, some HYBE artist would use the main entrance, attracting the attention of fans and paparazzi that were permanent fixtures outside the HYBE building. Even if you hadn't recognized Jungkook and Suga, the sheer volume of yelling could only be for BTS.
Monica sees you go from cheerful to somewhat cautious as you move towards the exit. It is inevitable that you would cross paths with them. Jungkook raises his hand for a high five. You do the same but remove your hand at the last minute.
"Noona!" he protests.
"Aww you," you return his high five, laughing.
With Suga, you only exchange a sombre wave. His eyes linger on you, searching for some indication of the reason for the differential treatment. But this isn't the time or the place.
A blast of cold air hits you when you step into the streets. Instantly, you're greeted by a passionate cry of people who recognize you. You grin and wave at everyone before getting into your car. Your album's going to be out soon, so you're making more public entrances than the private ones.
