"What's going on, Chenle?!", I saw Jeno run out of the room, "O-Oh...", he stopped when he saw me.
"She brought a bomb", Chenle said.
Jeno looked at the bomb on the floor. The red light on it kept blinking.
We were running out of time.
"Jiwoo, you're making things worse by showing up", Jeno looked at me.
"Look", I started, "I'd love to talk, but-"
"WATCH OUT", I heard a voice shout.
Boom!
The bomb went off.
The sound was so loud, it rang all through my body.
Someone shoved me into the wall, using there body as protection.
Everything went white.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Is she alright?", I heard people around me talk to each other.
Whoever protected me from the bomb still had their arms around me. "I dunno", the person said.
"Jiwoo?", someone said, "Jiwoo, wake up"
I didn't have the strength to open my eyes. All I could do was let out the smallest groan so they knew I was alive.
"Jiwoo, its Jaemin"
Jaemin?
I was still with NCT Dream?
How the hell was I not dead yet?
"Huh?", even though it hurt a lot, I forced myself to sit up.
"What the hell?", I whispered to myself as I looked around me, seeing all the NCT Dream members staring at me.
"You ok?", Jeno asked as he crouched next to me.
"Yeah, yeah", I backed up a little, since I didn't feel comfortable around them, "I'm fine"
I slowly lifted my hand and touched my face.
Blood.
Blisters.
Cuts.
I was in bad shape.
Jaemin slowly backed away from me and stood up. He offered his hand to help me stand up, too. I awkwardly got a grab of his wrist and pulled myself up.
"I was worried for a second", Jeno said to me.
I just glared at him. I didn't feel any respect for him right now.
"We're here for business, Jeno", I said as I ran my hand through my messy hair, "Not to make up for everything"
"NCT Dream is here for business", Jeno gave me a cold stare, "You're just here for money"
"And what's the difference?", I raised my eyebrow.
"The difference is...", Jaemin walked up to me and looked at me in the eyes, "That we work together to make things right, here...you just let money manipulate you"
Just everything about Jaemin in that moment: his stare, his stable and deep voice, the words he said to me...it all sliced my heart like a knife.
"We'll give you a chance", Jeno said.
"Justice or money?", he asked.
I discreetly lowered my hand to my side and got a grip of my handgun.
I just stared at them.
"So?", Jaemin looked at me, "What are you gonna choose?"
"Money", I lifted my gun.
You guys still here? XD Hope you're enjoying the book so far...
