"Lia and yeji make their way to Yeji's room."
Yeji: okay.. talk.
Lia: I know Ryujin is just forcing herself to give JM to me because JM loves me but I think it's best if she was his girlfriend instead of me.
Yeji: why?
Lia: we all know she won the game fair and square. I lost and it's okay. She has lost enough and I want her to have a chance to get what she deserves.
Yeji: your point?
Lia: I wanna break up with him but I don't know how to. Will you help me?
Yeji: and hurt him even more?
Lia: I know it will hurt but he will still have Ryu.
Yeji: okay but only because you asked me nicely.
Lia: thanks.
"She talks to Ryujin."
Yeji: Ryu.
Ryujin: yeah?
Yeji: why didn't you tell me that you gave JM to Lia? You won the game fair and square.
Ryujin: because he loves her.
Yeji: but she doesn't feel the same for him.
Ryujin: wait what!?
Yeji: she wants to break up with him and give him to you again.
Ryujin: and you said yes to that!? Do you know he'll get hurt and feel like he's being treated like a toy for that!?
Yeji: I know he'll get hurt but if it's to give you a chance to get what you deserve then maybe that's worth it.
Ryujin: what do you know about what I want!?
Yeji: we all know you're hurt because of Janna's death and because you have lost a lot already but maybe loving him will heal both you and him.
Ryujin: and how do you plan on telling him?
Yeji: tomorrow morning I'll talk with him.
Ryujin: are you even prepared for what his response will be? And how he will react?
Yeji: I'm your leader of course I am ready for anything.. I just wasn't ready for Janna's death though..
Ryujin: fair enough.
JM: hey.
Chaeryeong: can't sleep?
JM: nope.
Chaeryeong: Yeji and Ryujin are still awake maybe if you talk to them you will feel better.
JM: I'll try.
"I come out of my room and see Yeji and Ryujin."
JM: heya.
Ryujin: why are you up? Shouldn't you be in bed by now?
JM: can't sleep..
Ryujin: unnie wanna talk with him about it now?
JM: about what?
Yeji: *sighs* JM Lia wants to give you back to Ryujin.
JM: this has to be a big joke right? What is this!? You guys think I'm a toy!?
Yeji: she has a reason for it okay.
JM: what's the reason then!? What's the point of this even!? I get hurt even more! I'm done!
"I walk out."
Yeji: JM!!
Ryujin: I told you.
