"H-He...He's dead..!" Chaeryeong stated horrified.

"How could this happen..." Yeji was in disbelief.

The hamster was lying lifeless in his cage.

"Maybe he is sleeping." Lisa poked his stomach.

"He looks dead to me. Don't touch corpses Lisa." Chaeyoung swatted her hand away.

"No way..." The tears pricked Yuna's eyes.

"Don't be sad, he is in a better place now." Ryujin commented.

"He was fine minutes ago...." Jisu frowned.

"I know a good vet. He could check on him and look if he really is dead or could still be fixed." Lisa suggested. "I'll give him a call."

Chaeryeong nodded with teary eyes.

"Great idea!" Jennie remarked. "Grab my purse I bought a new one."

Jisoo put the cassette in.

The Exorcist read by the author--

The brunette clicked pause immediately.

"Wrong one Jisoo!"

"Oh my, do you secretly like scary stuff? No way you heard the whole thing without puking or fainting."

Jennie rolled her eyes.

"Stop bringing that up, it was a moment of weakness okay?"

"What's The Exorcist?" Jisu asked.

"Can we listen to it?" Yeji added.
