“Youngji, what's wrong? Why are you making that face?” Seungyeon, the older member of the group, walked up to the girl who sat with her head hunched over and playing on her phone, refusing to look up.

“No, Seungyeon hyung,” Youngji raised her head to answer her older sister who came to sit next to her. Youngji looked down at her phone again and saw that he had returned from the forest two days ago and she couldn't understand why he didn't tell her what day he was coming back. The last time we talked was when he called. Said that he had reached the forest only after that, she understood that there might not be a signal in the forest, so he refused to contact her, but she just became annoyed when she saw him upload on IG that he had returned, but why didn't he? tell her a word

“Is it about Jackson?” Seungyeon looked at her younger sister who, although she didn't say anything, could guess what was wrong with her younger sister. Even though Youngji had only recently joined the group, love Her and her siblings' care The rest of the group didn't care for Young Ji at all, but she was even more worried about this younger sister than anyone else.

“...Yes.” Youngji looked at her sister again. Since she couldn't hide what was wrong with her, she could only admit it to Seungyeon.

"Why? Didn't he arrive in Korea two days ago? And you uploaded a picture to let him know how happy you are that he returned safely."

“It's true that I uploaded a picture, but I don't know if he knows that what I uploaded is about him because since he left, we haven't talked at all. I found out that he was back in Korea when he uploaded his IG. Tell everyone that he's arrived," Youngji told her sister in a teasing voice. Because of this, she didn't let anyone know that we haven't been in contact for several days. The current status between her and Jackson is just people talking. If you call and ask, he'll say you're too busy.

"I think he probably saw it. Jackson might have been looking at his IG. And here's the picture from when he came back."

“Then you probably saw it because now...he unfollowed me,” Youngji said, tears filling her eyes, looking at her older sister's face who understood everything about her.

"Anfall!! Did he press the wrong button on Youngji? Or maybe he was hacked?" Seungyeon looked at Youngji's face confused, and especially now that Jackson is doing well, there might be people who don't have hope. Well, you can pretend.

“No, Seungyeon hyung, he's the only one who unfollowed me. Moreover, we've talked about how if one of them is upset or angry about something or doesn't want to talk, then send a signal to let him know, like unfollowing like this. How is it?”

"Then why don't you try calling or sending a message to ask him why you're doing this?"

“No, Seungyeon hyung, if he doesn't want to talk to me then I won't talk to him either,” Youngji told Seungyeon, blinking a few times. To chase away all the tears

“Youngji,” Seungyeon herself was speechless. Since her younger sister chose to do this, she would have to let go of Youngji's wishes even though she didn't want their relationship to end like this because Jackson also took good care of Youngji throughout their filming together. Even when Youngji posted the wrong photo, Jackson came out to defend it by liking the photo to distract antis. His girlfriend blamed him instead and she believed that there must be something wrong with Jackson doing that.

“Let's go back to the dorm, we have work early tomorrow.” Youngji got up and walked out of the practice room. Seungyeon only looked at her before getting up and following her out. She didn't tell Seungyeon hyung, the other thing was Jackson. I added someone's message and he kept liking that girl...this might be your reason for treating me like this.

GOT7

The first seven members since Jackson left the forest ended well. Every member was smiling and happy to be back performing for a week. But there was another person who smiled a bit, but it wasn't like the original person who was bright all the time waiting. Making the members laugh, BamBam looked at his older brother who turned to smile with someone else, but every time he accidentally turned sad, there was something wrong with his older brother today.

“Jackson, what's wrong with you fighting with Youngji?” BamBam walked in and whispered. Jackson was a little taken aback by Bambam's question but shook his head in denial.

"We're not arguing, so why are you making this face? It's okay if you don't want to tell us." BamBam saw Jackson's face looking at him and giving him a scolding look, so he didn't ask further. He could go ask Youngji hyung himself.

When we got to the dormitory, everyone went about their own business. BamBam picked up his phone and looked at his fans' Twitter as soon as he saw fans. Drama about Jackson's IG and BamBam's Youngji. Try looking at Jackson's IG and see that many international fans comment that Jackson went to Anfo. Lyong Ji BamBam thought about the reason Jackson was like this. He could guess, but he also wanted to know why Jackson had to unfollow Young Ji now, not just Jack. The criticism spread to Young Ji's brother as well. He didn't want both of them to be scolded. Especially because Young Ji's sister is a woman, she must have been hit harder than Jackson's brother. Like last time, he saw the drama. Regarding the photo, he told Jackson to do something, so Jackson came out and liked the photo. What will he do this time? Youngji hyung is like his other older sister too. Bambam thought for a moment and immediately dialed a number to call.

“Hello, Youngji hyung,” BamBam greeted the person on the other end of the line when he heard the answer.

"What's up BamBam? It's late. Why aren't you sleeping? You just finished performing, right?"

"About that IG...I will tell Jackson Fall back. I think he must have pressed the wrong button. Youngji hyung, don't think too much about it. When fans comment on Youngji hyung, don't think about it." BamBam tried to say something and was quiet for a while. When he saw that Youngji hyung wasn't saying anything, he immediately started talking about what he wanted to say.

"You don't think too much, BamBam. The person who should tell you not to think too much is probably BamBam's older brother more than you. I see that foreign mothers say a lot about him. As for the matter of falling or not falling, I don't think. What is it? If he doesn't want to fall, you don't have to force him. Bam, let him decide for himself."

“Youngji hyung really doesn't think too much. I'm worried about you, hyung.” BamBam continued to ask to make sure that his Youngji hyung wouldn't think as much.

"I don't think too much, Bam. Don't worry, just go to bed. You have work tomorrow, don't you?"

“Yes...Then sweet dreams, hyung.” Youngji's soft voice replied, but he already knew that what he said was not thinking too much probably wasn't true.

“Good night.” Youngji ended the call and Bambam could only sigh. He could only tell him not to think too much. If he told Jackson to let Fall back again, Youngji would get scolded again. He knows how sensitive things like this are to fans, but no matter what, he'll have to say something and the rest will have to be left up to Jackson to figure out for himself, just like Youngji hyung. that

“Uncle Jackson,” BamBam opened the door to Jackson's room and came in without even asking permission from the room owner.

“Bambam, why don't you knock first if you're opening someone else's door?” Jackson turned to scold his younger sibling for rushing in.

“I have something to talk to you about, please give me a moment.” BamBam ignored the scolding and walked over to sit at the end of Jackson's bed, which was the bunk bed between Jackson and Mark.

"What's wrong?" Jackson asked in a low voice.

“About Youngji hyung,” BamBam was silent when he saw Jackson was about to say something before speaking again when he saw that he was refusing to speak.

"Did you see the comments? Why did you do that? Didn't you think about how much Youngji hyung would think about it?"

“Then how do you know that your Youngji hyung will think too much? People who scolded me didn't scold your Youngji hyung at all,” Jackson immediately asked back.

“So you haven't seen it yet?” BamBam pressed the phone he held in his hand and opened a message from fans. They cursed Youngji to Jackson.

"I can't see that it's the same for you and Youngji hyung. But don't forget that no matter what, women will get more than men like us."

“So what do you want me to do?”

“Jackson hyung, why do you say this? You're not worried about Youngji hyung at all, right? Do you know that when I called Youngji hyung just now, what was Youngji hyung's voice like? Just by talking, I already know how Youngji hyung is feeling right now. Youngji hyung is really worried about you. Youngji hyung told me. That the person I should tell not to think too much about is probably my older brother. As for whether you will fall or not, they don't care and just say that whether you fall or not is your business."

BamBam said angrily. Before we started talking, Brother Jackson could hardly sleep. He said that Brother Youngji was so cute, so cute. Anyone who teased Youngji made him annoyed. Now he pretends not to care.

“Even though you and Youngji hyung are just talking and not even dating yet, you should tell him something. Why are you doing this? That's all I can tell you. The rest is up to you. I'm going to bed now.” Bambam saw that Jackson kept quiet and didn't say anything, so he got up and went back to his room.

“Like you said, you should think about it, Jackson.” Mark, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up. He probably already knew because Jackson's actions had been strange since they met again. He had been paying attention. Still see through And why did Jackson change?

“You have to make a choice, Jackson, not leave it hanging like this. I know you're shaken by Hani. If you're shaken by her, you should cut Youngji and tell her, not suddenly. He doesn't call or answer his messages like this.”

“I know,” Jackson said after being silent for a long time. He thought that no one would guess about this matter, but how could he forget that his roommate, Brother Mark, could feel his feelings just by looking in his eyes?

“Um,” Mark simply replied. Why wouldn't he know? The other day he was playing with Jackson's phone and his hand pressed on a famous app. Youngji saw that Youngji had sent a message but Jackson didn't open it and read it. Plus, he saw that Jackson was talking to Hani in That chat box as well, and normally at times like this, every time after work is finished, Jackson will call Youngji or at least have a video call with her. Jackson always talks to Youngji through chat, but since he When he came back, Jackson still hadn't called Young Ji even once, so he couldn't guess why Jackson was like this.

“I don't know how to tell her, I'm afraid she'll regret it,” Jackson said softly.

“And if you don't tell her, won't she be even more upset? No matter what, she'll regret it anyway. And besides, if you choose to talk to someone new, why would you care about Young Ji that she would? I'm sorry," Mark said, hitting Jackson's heart. If Jackson still cared that Young Ji would be sad, then it meant that Jackson still had good feelings for Young Ji.

“So what should I do?” Jackson asked helplessly. He thought that unfailing him might cause Young Ji the least regret because we had agreed from the beginning what unfailing meant, but when he heard BamBam say that Young Ji wouldn't regret it. Little and still worried about him, and Mark's words just now made him feel even worse than before. He felt good talking to Hani but still didn't want to make Youngji sad.

"Sigh Jackson...you have to think about this yourself. I'm sleeping." Mark finished speaking and immediately covered up, leaving Jackson alone to think.

Jackson lay down and scrolled his phone back and forth, wondering what to do. He had already seen the comments that foreign fans had made and if he didn't fall back on the fans. We probably won't break up commenting easily, but if he falls, what about the fans? Aren't other people going to curse each other anymore? But when I think about it, the fans Probably scolding him more than scolding Youngji, Jackson opened the problematic app and typed in the name of Youngji's account that he remembered before pressing follow again, not wanting to cause more problems for him. So he chose to follow his older sister in her group and other friends that he hadn't yet followed.

Youngji woke up early in the morning. Last night she didn't sleep well. She admits that what Bambam said made her think more than she could sleep. It was almost dawn today, so she didn't feel very refreshed.

“If you don't want to fall, I don't see the need to fall, so doing this is more like you're being forced, right? Jackson?” After finishing his personal business, getting ready to get into the car to go to work, Youngji grabbed the phone. Came up to check news. When I opened IG to check the photos that fans tagged, it appeared that Jackson had returned to following her as usual, but if I were to guess, he probably did it out of necessity, or other people might. You would think that not falling with each other is a small matter, but she and Jackson have already made an agreement and him unfalling her might be as agreed upon because otherwise he would probably Called to tell her like last time that it was because the manager told him to, but this time he didn't tell her anything, so it must be as agreed upon.

“What are you complaining about by yourself? Youngji can go get in the car.” Hara walked over and called out to the younger sibling who hadn't seen her yet.

“Okay, sorry for making you wait.” Youngji walked out of the room and bowed apologetically to his hyungs. and the manager who is already waiting

“Today we have a half day of work. In the evening we will go back to practice at the company because tomorrow evening we have Inkigayo.” The manager's voice said as everyone was ready to leave for work according to today's schedule.

“Yes,” the Karas' voices answered in unison.

“Youngji...have you reconciled yet?” Seungyeon turned and whispered to the younger sister sitting next to him. She had already checked on IG and saw that Jackson had come back to fall for Youngji.

“Not yet, he fell because he was forced to,” Youngji replied angrily to her older sister. Today she will definitely not talk about this person.

"If he doesn't call tomorrow, you can ask. We'll see each other anyway."

"Don't ask. If you want it to be like this, then I will be like this. Everyone is different." Youngji finished speaking and immediately put on his headphones. Seungyeon looked at her younger sister and could only shake her head. This time her younger sister seemed to be stubborn.

After finishing work early in the afternoon, Kara kept practicing all the time. The seniors told her to take a break, but she didn't want to rest so she asked the seniors. She stayed alone to practice because she knew that when she took a break, she would only think about him. So she chose to practice and practice like this. But when she looked up again, Youngji saw that it was past time. It was already 10 p.m. and it must have been time to leave before the phone rang.

“Hello,” Youngji answered when he saw who was calling.

“Hello, Youngji hyung,” BamBam's voice greeted.

“What is it, BamBam?” Youngji asked. Why has BamBam been calling her so often lately and sending messages all the time saying keep fighting, my sister?

“Where is Youngji hyung?”

“I'm in the practice room and about to return,” Youngji replied, putting things in his bag.

“Just finished practicing?”

“Yes...do we have something?” Youngji opened the practice room door and walked to the elevator to go downstairs.

“I'm excited because I'll be able to meet Youngji hyung tomorrow.” Bambam's voice answered with genuine excitement.

“I don't have to be excited, so I'm talking like I've never met you,” Youngji said, amused.

"Well, I haven't seen you in a long time. Since you came back, we haven't seen each other again."

“That's it...you wanted to meet us too but now you have to put it down,” Youngji told BamBam as she walked out of the company because it was a public place. If anyone passing by heard who she was talking to, It must be a big deal.

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow. Sweet dreams."

“Good night,” Youngji hung up the phone and walked to the car where the manager was waiting to pick him up.

After Bambam hung up the phone from Youngji, there was silence among the seven guys. BamBam turned to look at his good older brother who was only looking at him while wagging his eyebrows in annoyance.

“Oh..I'll always wait for Youngji hyung,” Jinyoung teased BamBam. When Kara made a comeback and came to the show where he was the MC, he saw BamBam always following Young Ji and knew that he was pleased but he didn't think he would be this pleased.

“Well, my older sister is beautiful, beautiful, cute, cute, and there's nothing wrong with that.” BamBam intended to say sarcastically to some people who kept looking at him.

“And where is Young Ji now? Why does it say that she just finished practicing?” Mark asked. He knew that the person sitting next to him wanted to know more, but he didn't want to ask himself, so he chose to ask for him.

"I won't tell... if anyone wants to know, just ask." BamBam immediately got up and walked into his room. He already knew why Brother Youngji and Brother Jackson weren't talking to each other because Brother Mark had told him in the morning. After that, he went to check IG as Brother Mark said, and it's true what Mark said, only he still hasn't seen the message that Brother Jackson talked with Brother Hani.

“There was a fight again,” Jaebum said, looking up at Jackson who was just sitting silently.

“We weren't arguing, we just weren't talking,” Mark said and got up and went into his own room.

“Why?” Jaebum turned around and asked Jackson again.

"I'm talking to Hani," Jackson's voice said softly.

“And Youngji??Then I'm flirting,” Jinyoung tried to say, but as expected, Jackson quickly turned towards him.

“Well, you won't talk to Youngji then I can flirt with you.” Jinyoung still hasn't stopped teasing Jackson.

“Youngji doesn't like people like you,” Jackson immediately shot back.

"How do you know if you don't like it and haven't tried flirting yet?"

“Are you serious?” Jaebum turned around and asked in disbelief.

“It's true what BamBam said about Young Ji being cute. When I went to interview Young Ji, my heart was pounding.” Jinyoung answered Jaebum in a serious tone, confirming that what he said was true.

"Uh...then it's up to you. Let me go to bed first." Jackson stood up angrily. Even though he thought he wouldn't be upset about Youngji, he couldn't help it.

“Dogs are so possessive,” Jinyoung muttered before turning to wink at Jaebum. Youngjae and Yugyeom still look at him.

“I know, I don't flirt with my future girlfriend,” Jinyoung said to ease everyone's doubts.

“But Jackson talked to Hanina, so how can Youngji be his potential girlfriend?” The maknae's voice said confusedly.

“Go to bed, Yugyeom, go to Youngjae, go into your room too, Jinyoung drags you to sleep with him.” Jaebeom shook his head at the maknae's innocence, he knew that Jackson had feelings for Youngji more. Hani

After they separated to sleep, Jackson kept turning left and right. He tried to sleep but no matter how much he squeezed his eyes, he couldn't fall asleep. His brain kept thinking about what Jinyoung told him earlier when he came into the room and he would flirt with Youngji. As for the story, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with him.

“If you can't stand it, call. If you want to ask, call. If you're worried, call. If you miss me, call me, not while sleeping restlessly like this.” Mark's voice rang out in the darkness.

"Why did you call? She's probably on her way home and about to go to bed."

“That's a really good guess.” Mark quieted down when he heard Jackson's phone ring.

“Hello/I'm about to fall asleep/I have to go early tomorrow/Yes, I'm also the MC/Yes/Sweet dreams.”

“Hani?” Mark asked when he realized Jackson had hung up the phone.

“Yes, she just called to ask about tomorrow's work,” Jackson answered, placing the phone next to his pillow.

“Then you must have had a good dream.”

“Probably.” After Jackson's words, no one said anything. Everyone was asleep, but by the time Jackson was able to sleep, it was already quite late.

The atmosphere of the event started to be lively from the morning as the artists participating in the show had to practice their lines and check their mics, causing many fans to come and see their favorite artists, and today Jackson has to do double duty as an artist.

GOT7

and as the MC of the show

When it was time to start the event, many fans poured in, so Jackson was even more excited than usual. Even though it was a show he was a regular at, this was his first time being the MC on such a big stage. Jackson Standing and meditating on the side of the stage to prepare to go on duty.

When it was his turn to perform, Jackson hurried to change clothes to act as

GOT7

And came back to be the MC again and when it came to the time when he was most worried about having to announce the name of the Kara band to perform during the day of practice, the staff just had to stand and watch the queue to see which bands would be performing and When he saw KARA practicing, he kept looking at Youngji alone. He wanted to talk and explain, but the time was short so he could only look, like right now after the band's name was announced. When he saw her, he stepped back and stood at the side of the stage to watch. Every time Youngji performed on stage, she was very charming. She could easily draw the eyes of many people to look at her, so it's not surprising that she has a lot of fanboys. Both in the industry and outside of the industry, Jackson kept staring at Young Ji until the performance ended. He continued doing his duties until the concert ended. In the end, he still didn't have a chance to talk to her to understand.

"Jackson hyung is the best. There are people who praise him and say he did a great job." Yugyeom walked over and hugged Jackson when he saw Jackson walking back to the artists' dormitory tent to get ready to go back to the dorm.

“I hope Jackson, Yugyeom, is there anything I can't do?” Jackson asked, pushing him away a bit before giving him a teasing look.

“There's only one thing,” BamBam's voice said in annoyance.

“Today I went to play with Youngji hyung. Youngji hyung bought me coffee too.”

"As you wish, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and we'll have to meet again tomorrow," Jackson said, his voice a little curt.

“Yes, I also asked Youngji hyung what sport he plays and what color he is.”

“His matter has nothing to do with me.” Jackson turned away and went to collect his own things.

“Are you really giving up on this? Jackson, do you really like Hani hyung?” Jinyoung walked up and asked in shock.

"Um...is there anything else? I want to go back now." Jackson answered without paying attention to Jinyoung's question, didn't he just say that if he chooses, he chooses, but he just hasn't gotten there yet. Just talk to Young Ji.

“Then let's go back. Don't worry about other people's business,” Jinyoung said angrily. He felt more pity for Youngji than she did. She didn't even know the exact reason why Jackson was distancing himself like this today. BamBam came back and told him that Youngji only knew that Jackson had changed but didn't know the reason for Jackson's change, and he also wanted to know if Jackson saw someone else. How will it feel to come in and flirt with Youngji? Let's wait and see tomorrow. He'll try to get him to sit in the same area as Youngji.

Idol Sports Day is held every year and twice a year, the first time being during New Year's Festival and the second time being during Suseok Festival to allow idol artists to bond over sports and each other. At the time there were many artists participating in almost every label. The program is organized according to the label, but this time it's a little different. There's an additional world team, which is a team that brings together artists of different nationalities from Korea. One of them being Mark and Jackson, they don't even know. Why didn't BamBam join together in the world team?

The competition began as the opening ceremony and swearing-in ended, each sport began to compete, and the atmosphere was filled with cheers from the artists' fans. Those who had not yet competed were also cheering on their friends.

“Youngji hyung,” BamBam walked over and nudged Youngji who was standing there watching the others. The competition was fun and Youngji turned to wave at BamBam before stopping slightly when she faced the person she had been trying to avoid all along.

“When are you going to compete?” BamBam called for Youngji to focus on himself again, not wanting his hyungs to compete. Both of them are too much attention.

“Wait a moment, when are we competing?” Youngji looked away from Jackson and turned to answer.

“I'm competing in the evening, don't forget to come cheer me on.” BamBam talked to Youngji so happily that he even forgot that there were other people standing there.

The morning match was over and there was only afternoon left. Jackson and Mark walked into the stadium after he went to another basketball court. Jackson and Mark went to sit and hang out with their idol friends. of him waiting to watch the women's archery competition Jackson looked around before his eyes landed on Youngji. Now that she had changed into an orange polo shirt and white shorts, Jackson kept his eyes on him, slightly surprised that his archery uniform looked so short at the beginning of the year. Jackson could only think angrily, looking at Youngji who was walking around playing with her fans, sometimes walking with her idol friends, both male and female, but why did she seem close when she talked with the male idols? A lot of the time, he has to keep his distance all the time, claiming that he'll be scolded by fans. He claims that he's afraid of reporters. But now, why doesn't he see that she's afraid of anything she's ever told him?

“Look and look until you'll break through.” Mark turned and whispered softly when he saw Jackson keep looking at Youngji without taking his eyes off. After looking at him for a while, his expression began to change, especially when Youngji went to play with his idol. Prince Jackson would frown and his gaze would change.

“Do you still dare to deny to yourself that you have nothing to do with her right now?” Mark asked softly as Jackson looked back at him.

“I don't understand myself. Just when I see Youngji walking and talking to other people, my jealousy increases. When Youngji laughs with other people, I want to stand there. And when Youngji ignores me. It hurts to focus on other people more than me,” Jackson replied in a low voice as well. His eyes always looked at Youngji when he spoke.

“You've been looking at Youngji until now and you didn't even notice that Hani was standing nearby. You should be able to figure out who you're more attracted to. People can have fun talking to other people as well, and it can be in many different situations. You might talk to Hani because you see her as an older sister, but for Youngji, whatever status you want her to be in, your heart can answer well. The best,” Mark said, reaching out to gently pat Jackson on the shoulder. He could only say this, making Jackson understand his own heart.

Jackson looked at Hani and reconsidered how he felt about this woman, then looked back at Youngji and wondered who the woman was more important to him was. Confident in his answer, Jackson turned to look at Mark's face again before smiling slightly.

“Thank you, brother,” Jackson said, reaching out to gently touch Mark's hand. On his own shoulder, why did he just understand that their feelings were so different? He admitted that he was happy talking to Hani, but talking to Young Ji made him happier than just seeing her. Smile or you laugh, his world seems bright enough with two women he has good feelings for. Standing this close to each other, he separated those feelings. He looked at Hani and Youngji in comparison. For Hani, he now felt like she was like an older sister who made him happy. But Youngji asked. Just looking at her smiling face made him happy and all his feelings he just understood today.

“Go, go inside and rest. Your hand hurts, right? There's still time to clear things up.” Mark nudged Jackson to get up before walking together into the room.

Jackson walked around the guest room after hearing that the female archer competition was finished. He came to wait to talk to Youngji to understand. He couldn't wait any longer, he didn't want her to misunderstand him any more. Wanting to apologize to her for making her sad and thinking too much, he soon saw the person he wanted to talk to the most walk into the artist's residence area.

“Youngji...I have something to talk to you about.” Jackson called out to Youngji in a low voice. He was afraid that other people would come by and hear what he was about to say to Youngji. He was afraid that if someone told the reporter about him, Youngji would be hurt. But at this time, there weren't many people around because some of them were preparing. Some people compete in sports and others stay in their own rooms.

“But I don't have anything to talk to you about.” Youngji tried to bypass Jackson and go into his own room.

“Youngji, listen to me first, I really have something to explain.” Jackson didn't let Youngji pass him by.

“You don't have to explain anything, I understand everything.” Youngji didn't listen easily.

"But you're misunderstanding me."

“How do you know that I misunderstood you? Do you know what I misunderstood?” Youngji immediately stopped walking before looking up and replying to Jackson.

“So what do you understand?” Jackson asked Youngji. Why wouldn't he know that she understood that he probably didn't want to talk to her? Deep down, he really wanted to talk to her, but it was because of his short temper that he turned his attention to Hani. He admitted his mistake.

"I understand what we agreed on." That's where he guessed wrong. Youngji looked at Jackson with a sullen face. What would he do with her? They're all different people.

“That's why you misunderstood me, so I wanted to explain it to you.” Jackson tried to persuade Youngji to listen to him.

“Jackson hyung is here. Jinyoung hyung asked you to come along so we can go to the hospital.” BamBam walked up to Jackson who was talking with Youngji.

“What is wrong with you?” Youngji accidentally asked with concern until Jackson secretly smiled. At least she was still worried about him.

“I'm fine,” Jackson refused, not wanting to let her know that he hurt his hand and that his manager hyung was going to take him and Jinyoung to get checked to make sure it was nothing serious. He was hurt because he played basketball incorrectly. Jinyoung's timing, he wasn't sure what it was doing.

"Oh, why did you say it hurts..." BamBam fell silent when he saw Jackson's eyes looking back at him. “The two hyungs are wearing the same orange shirts. They look good together, right?” Bambam immediately changed the subject. Youngji and Jackson looked at each other again, looking down at the color of their own shirts and it... As BamBam said, Youngji turned away from Jackson's eyes when she started to feel embarrassed by BamBam's words that she wore this outfit and it matched Jackson. Jackson looked at Youngji's face before smiling. It turned out that her expression when she was shy was still cute and changed.

“Jackson can go now. Manager is waiting.” Jinyoung saw that Bambam had been following him for too long and walked out to follow him himself.

“Tonight, I'm going to find a dorm,” Jackson whispered to Youngji before hurrying off with Jinyoung.

“BamBam, why does Jackson have to go to the hospital?” Youngji turned to Bambam and asked as soon as Jackson walked out.

“It's...that...Jackson hyung...” BamBam didn't know whether to tell him or not. He knew that Jackson probably didn't want Youngji hyung to worry about him, so he waited for him. He told himself.

“I'm going to wait for the competition, Youngji hyung, let's go.” BamBam hurriedly ran out of there. Youngji, who was about to call out, stopped when she realized that there wasn't just her here. Let's ask later.

Today's recording ended and the artists and fans all returned home. Youngji slowly looked up to see if Jackson was back here because she was still upset about him going to the hospital. She admitted that she was. He was worried that he would get hurt like last time, but no matter how much she looked, she couldn't see either Jackson or Jinyoung. If she went in and asked the other members, she couldn't find the right time because they were different and they would all rush back. Went to rest but Jackson told her he could go meet her at the dorm and ask when we met.

“Who is that, standing in the shadows all alone?” Hara turned to see a man wearing a black hoodie with a snap cap inside and a cloth covering his mouth.

“Jackson,” Youngji said as he turned and saw her and knew who it was.

“He came to see you?” Seungyeon asked. Youngji only nodded in response.

“Youngji, you need to be careful, coming together like this. If you get caught, you will be hurt yourself,” the manager gave a scolding voice.

“Yes,” was all Youngji answered before opening the door and walking down towards Jackson, not forgetting to conceal himself as well. Youngji grabbed his hoodie and tried to pull it over his face as much as possible.

“Youngji,” Jackson said when he saw Youngji walking towards himself. No matter how stealthy she was, he could recognize her very well.

“Jackson... why do you say you're alright? What does the cast on your arm mean?” Youngji asked a question as soon as she walked up. She looked at Jackson's arm, which had a bandage on it.

"It's not a big deal." Jackson pulled the mask off his nose so he could speak more clearly.

"It's not a big deal. Why do I need to use a brace on my arm and then I'll need a cast?"

“It's just a little sore on my hand and it's just a soft splint the doctor put on it to keep it from moving too much,” Jackson explained to Youngji, smiling that she was clearly worried about him.

“What have you done to get to this point?”

"Why are you playing basketball at the wrong time? Are you worried?" Jackson asked while smiling.

“Then what caused you to come here to me?” Youngji changed the subject when he realized that he had secretly shown his concern again.

"Wow...so sad that no one cares." Jackson let out a sigh, showing how sad he was that she didn't care about him.

“You don't have anything to say to me, right? So just go back. I'm going up to my room.” Youngji was about to turn around, but Jackson reached out his uninjured hand and grabbed Youngji's arm before he hurriedly spoke up. I want to explain it and force him to play any more, hoping tonight he won't understand again as usual.

"Don't worry...I have something to explain to you."

"Then there's something to say. I'm very tired today."

“The thing is...the IG thing is...I'm sorry I did that. I admit my mistake in not telling her that I talked to Hani, so I chose not to tell her because I was afraid that she would regret it, so I went. Fall to let you know instead.”

“Is this just what you wanted to tell me?” Youngji's eyes filled with tears from what she heard before slowly pulling her arm out of Jackson's grip, but before he could walk back, Jackson suddenly appeared. He pulled her arm again before speaking again.

“Listen to me first...I'm sorry for making you sad, but right now I'm not talking to Hani. I know how important you are to my feelings. Forgive me, Youngji. I feel bad when you ignore me. I get annoyed every time I see you talking to other people and then ignoring me...I'm sorry.” Jackson said all he wanted to say before apologizing in a low voice at the end.

“Are you the only one who feels bad, Jackson? Do you know how worried I was for you when you went to Nicaragua? Do you know that I had to pray that you wouldn't come back hurt? Do you know that I'm happy? How much did you see you come back safely but you didn't tell me a single word about your return? You chose to tell me the reason by unfollowing me without explaining anything. Do you see me as a fool? Just when you say you don't want to talk and then you say you want to talk to someone new, that's all I know. But now you don't tell me anything, you don't tell me anything, you leave me guessing at the reason. You're like a crazy person. Can't you just say a few words, Jackson?" Youngji poured out his pent up feelings as tears streamed down his cheeks. Jackson saw Youngji's tears and was shocked and stretched out his hand, hoping to see him. He wipes away his tears but Youngji brushes him off.

“Youngji..I'm sorry, it was my fault, don't cry.” Jackson pulled Youngji into a hug with one arm but Youngji struggled and it hit his other hand which hurt but he tried not to let her know. Noticing how much it hurt, he squeezed the embrace tighter than before to make her stop struggling, but it was no different at all. Youngji struggled harder and harder. Until he had to let Young Ji go free.

“Oh!” Jackson accidentally exclaimed when Youngji's hand slammed down hard on his hand.

“Did you get hurt? I'm sorry.” When he saw that he had accidentally hit the injured person, he almost forgot what he was angry about. Youngji immediately reached out his hand and grabbed the injured person's arm.

“I'm the one who has to apologize. This hurt isn't even as bad as what she hurt... I'm sorry, Youngji. I'm sorry for what I've done and I promise that next time it definitely won't happen. If I have anything, I'll tell you everything, where I went with whoever, I'll always report to you, so I won't make you worry anymore.... Please forgive me.” Jackson stretched out his hand and held Young Ji's hand tightly. No matter what, he would never lose her. He wouldn't let the matter hang like this again. Young Ji looked up at Jackson with tears in his eyes. It flows down again.

“Youngji...I know now how much I love you. I ask that just because this is the first and only time I've ever made you sad, would you give me another chance?” Jackson said while fighting back tears. Following her, Youngji stared at Jackson. When she saw his tears, her heart instantly softened before slowly nodding to Jackson.

“Really, thank you Youngji, I love you.” Jackson happily pulled Youngji into a hug, repeating his love. Youngji raised her arms to embrace him as well.

“We're your boyfriend,” Jackson whispered softly into his ear.

“Um,” Youngji made a noise in his throat and nodded into his embrace. Jackson heard Youngji's answer and tightened his embrace again.

Youngji tried to exert gentle force when he felt like he couldn't breathe until Jackson released his embrace before looking at Youngji's face as he reached out his hand to wipe away the tear stains from the woman's face.

“I really can't lose you, Youngji........I love you.” Jackson grabbed Youngji's hand and squeezed a little, reassuring her of his words.

“I...don't want to lose you, Jackson...I love you.” Youngji squeezed his hand back, telling him to be confident in her words as well...The two looked at each other. Unable to take their eyes off each other, Jackson held Youngji's hand before walking down the aisle to send her off. Neither of them said a word...but they communicated their feelings. of each other through those hands
