Jeon’s Pov:
I hurriedly went to my room, hundreds of thoughts running in my head not stopping at any of them making my head hurt. Why did my manager call me in a hurry? Does something happen to any of my family and friends? I hope everyone is alright.
I opened my room’s door and checked inside if he is in the room or not, he is already sitting on the couch talking on the phone with a serious look.
” What happened? Why did you call me so urgently?”
” You have to see this.” He handed me the iPod and I looked at what he is asking me to look at to my horror and shock there are headlines all over Korea and other countries that I am in a relationship with Miss Ye-Jun and there are screenshots of us conversing in texts.
” When did that happen?” I asked my manager with astonishment.
” I don’t know, I got a call from our company that you are trending all over the internet with Miss Ye-Jun and I checked, and there it is.” He explained.
” Everything is finally falling into place and now this has happened. What am I going to do?” I sat down on the couch feeling helpless and tired. Finally, I have got what I was looking for and that is a feeling which made me whole and my life better but now I can see everything going to slip out between my fingers like sand and I can’t even do anything about it.
What if Enya watches this news and decides to cut me off from her and our baby’s life? She gave me the last chance to prove that I’m going to take care of her and our baby but it seems I failed at the start.
” Don’t worry Jeon, we are going to take care of this and I have already gathered the information on who sent the pictures to the media and why.” My manager said, patting me on my shoulder.
” Really! Then what are we waiting for? I don’t want to waste any second to prove that whoever is spreading the news is spreading rumors, not the truth.” I said with determination, I don’t want anyone to come between me and Enya. I have got this chance in life to get a beautiful woman and I don’t know if I can get another chance of getting a beautiful life with a beautiful woman.
” What you need to do is to go live and tell everyone that whatever rumors are circulating are just rumors and your agency will release the proof once live ends.” He explained to me what I have to do and what he will do.
” Okay, I got it and My life depended on you, Mr. Park,” I stated feeling all the emotions at once and I just wanted to go to Enya and cuddle with her till the morning surrounded by her scent and feeling her baby bump.
” As I said, don’t worry Jeon, everything is going to be alright and I will make sure of that. You just have to be calm when you go live.”
” Okay, I will be calm.”
I have to be calm during live if not everyone will think I am guilty of something which I did and try to cover it up. Everything depends on my live and Mr. Park and everything will be alright till the morning so I can tell Enya about it first thing in the morning so she doesn’t have to hear from someone and misunderstand everything.
” I will prepare everything for the live show and call you in, okay?” Mr. Park said before leaving my room to prepare for live in the hall. I am staying in a suite and I have a little apartment for myself.
Mr. Park came back after five minutes telling me to get ready for the live, I have changed my clothes and my mood from Angry, sad, anxious to cheerful, calm, and collected. I need patience and luck to get out of this mess.
” How long do I have to be in Live?” I asked to confirm because I am not in the mood to interact with anyone.
” Thirty minutes, not more than that. I promise.” Mr. Park said before signaling me to take my position in front of the mobile through which I am going live. I closed my eyes trying to calm myself before starting the broadcast and behind my closed lids, I saw Enya’s face which was so serene and beautiful which made my heartbeat steady and my nerves calm. I reminded myself of the feeling of Enya’s bump and the feel of our baby growing inside her tummy which made me calm and positive. I have to do this for Enya, for our baby, and myself.
” Okay, I am turning it on, 3.. 2… 1… Go.” Mr. Park excited the room, giving me some space. I thought of my time with Enya and automatically a genuine smile and calmness adorned my face making me relax for not having to fake anything. I can go like this by just thinking about Enya and our baby.
” Hey, Everyone! How are you all?” I greeted the screen, there are not many people right now but slowly the numbers started increasing and the comments from my fans started appearing on the screen which consisted of greetings like How am I.
” I hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy.” To which I received they are doing well because of my music and me. That made me feel so much proud of my music and I am lucky that my music can help people. I have heard so many times from my fans that my music helps them to overcome their stress and conflicts. It makes me feel confident in myself and pushes me to make more music.
Someone asked where I am because I am not sitting in my usual spot as always whenever I go live, ” Iam not at home right now but in LA for a friend’s wedding.” I was always honest with my fans and that made me connect with them and them with me so deeply.
They all wished me to enjoy my time here and slowly I was getting asked about the rumors with Ye-Jun and this is the time for me to announce that whatever is happening on the internet is just false.
” I know you all want to know about the rumors which are circulating on the internet and about the pictures which circulated sometime before. I just want to tell you all that they were and are just rumors, nothing more than that, and I don’t know Miss Ye-Jun personally other than just meeting her once for a professional gathering.”
“If I ever will be in a relationship then I will announce it live broadcast and the proofs which will make me innocent in all the rumors will be released by the agency once the live ends. I don’t need to explain by myself to the people who believe rumors other than me but I owe answers to my fans and to the people who are spreading rumors for their benefit. I need to stop them at some point right?”
“Thanks, everyone for the support and your belief in me. Take care and stay safe and healthy, I will meet you guys again. Goodbye.” I ended live with a big smile feeling so light with all the things I have talked about with my fans. They Calm calms me with all the support they give me. I have got comments like how they have faith in me and how they support me no matter what.
I called out to Mr. Park and he arrived holding a tab in his hands with a big smile on his face.
” With that smile of yours, I’m guessing you have done your job.” He nodded at me before showing me the tab which consists of the video clip where Miss Ye-Jun is bribing one of the publishing companies and asking them to manipulate and circulate the fake conversation screenshots.
” Thank you so much Mr. Park. I am grateful for what you did today.” I thanked him before giving him a brief hug.
” It’s my duty and responsibility Jeon, don’t thank me.” I am very lucky to get him as my manager.
” It’s late, you should rest.” He insisted before leaving the room. I took so much time clearing everything, maybe Enya is waiting for me? But she looked tired and I hope she sleeps rather than waiting for me.
I leave my room to go to Enya’s, she is on the floor below. She gave me her extra key card and it will be helpful for me to enter her room. The elevator stopped with a ping and I left the elevator and went straight to her room and scanned the key card. The door unlocked with a click making me curse. She is definitely sleeping and the last thing I want to do is wake her up.
I locked the door, switching my phone’s flashlight for the way to bed. Enya is sleeping peacefully, I slowly climbed on the bed turning off the flashing and propping my body beside her, and pulling her body towards me spooning her. Her back is attached to my front surrounding me with her natural scent making me sigh with relief.
I slipped into the dreamless sleep with her in my arms.
