What should I do?

 *****Jin's POV*****

The things that I feared the most are happening in an instance. All the time that I've been struggling to get a hold of myself and my career, the things that I feared the most are scandals and negative publicity. I've always tried to stay out of any kind of rumors that may affect my career and my business. I know that all the efforts that I've put in my business may ruin and I have to put double effort to gain myself a clean image after that.

I'm trying to recover the sudden damage and downfall in company shares since Kookie made a mistake. He's still a kid and I understand that. I tried to turn the flow of events in our favor. But as far as I can evaluate the situation things are not going to change any time soon. 

Jungkook is completely keeping a low profile now. But every now and then there are news about him and us trying to hide the supposedly dating rumors that are going on.

Tae officially gave a statement last week that Jungkook is not in any kind of relationship and our company does not give the privileges to date until and unless the contract is over or the rumored star is stable enough in his or her career. This is how it is supposed to be in the Pop industry in Korea. Big producing companies are often criticized that they don't let the idols lead any personal life. Which is partially a false statement. Once an idol is rumored to date anyone the fan base goes crazy about that and it of course hampers both the company business and the career of that idol. This is why such measures are taken.

I wake up from my congested thoughts. Jimin comes in my room with some papers in his hand. 

"Jin, I got the information that you wanted. Here it is." He hands me over the papers.

"Thanks!!! I'll go through it." I say while taking the papers from him.

"Tell me something. Who is this girl that you're taking all the efforts for? Why did you need her flight details? And her academic details? And how did you know that she's coming to Korea? Why are you gathering information about an Indian girl anyway?" Jimin is looking at me with sharp eyes.

I try to avoid the question by faking a disturbed expression in my face. But, yeah! That's Jimin!

"Tell me, what are you hiding?" He says in a curious and interrogative tone.

"ummm.....she's actually a friend of mine who has asked for some help. She will be studying here." I'm out of excuse.

"Well, how can you help her?"

"She has taken admission in Hankuk University. I just have to look after some of her scholarship details."

Jimin doesn't seem convinced enough. Still, he lets go.

"I see. Tell me if you need anything more to help her." Jimin is smirking and I can see that from the corner of my eye.

"Of course. Whom would I ask for help if not you? You know some things better than me anyway. I'll ask her." I try to discourage him.

Ok, crap!!! I shouldn't have said that I'll ask her if she needs anything more.

Jimin says in a serious yet sarcastic tone, "Dude! You've got some serious explanation to do. I'm not convinced at all that she's just a friend for whom you are actually exploiting your company resources."

Yeah. I know that already. And I know that I'm too dumb and just brought this on me by myself.

              ****Ridhi's POV*****

The first month in Suwon just passed within a blink. I didn't even get time to realize what were exactly happening. I didn't get to notice all the things that were occurring around me. But some were noticeable.

The first thing that I noticed was the complete change of the approaches of the university committee regarding my scholarship. I literally gave up on that one because of no further updates and information. Somehow, last week my scholarship application was suddenly accepted and when I asked about what took so long, they replied,

"We're sorry but we had to confirm that the scholarship has found its rightful owner. But we got the right reference so it's OK now. You may proceed with your study without worries."

Now, who stopped my scholarship from getting approved? Who gave the reference later to approve it again? And how powerful that person is to get his/her hands on an internal matter of a university? I couldn't get the answers anyhow.

Today, we have to visit a company in groups for some practical experience on how the production companies handle the foreign affairs. Dia is literally jumping around since morning as if she has found a gold mine. Me and Adi are watching her hopping around like a rabbit and it is a treat to eyes honestly speaking.

I like how lively and enthusiastic she is about everything.

We reach and gather in the University campus within 11 am. I'm in my usual white tee and denim. Though I guess this is a dress code today because I can only see white and blues in the crowd of students.

The company that we'll be researching on is a music production company and some are gossiping about the unusually young and handsome CEO who has achieved so much on his own. I can hear some of them are even jokingly planning to marry the CEO even before seeing him and getting all hyped as if their life depends on it.

The company building is typically furnished in American style and is really good looking. As we enter the building the receptionist invites us with a generous bow and leads our way towards to elevator. She's a young lady in her mid 20's with a slim built and raven black hair. She can give a major inferiority complex to anybody of her age.

If a receptionist looks like this then what about other staffs? I look around and this company seems like one that prefers the visual above anything else. Everybody around look like dolls. They're groomed and insanely good looking.

We're waiting in one of the conference room when suddenly a guy walked in and greeted us good morning.

Holy shit! I felt a chill running through my spine at the moment he walked in. I've forgotten breathing at the visual that I had just now. I see Dia standing beside me with her mouth open literally up to her legs and gasping for breathe. I can assume that others in the room are also stunned by the stranger who just walked in,  without even looking at them.

Moreover, there is an awkward silence which prevailed inside the room as if someone has spelled us to remain like stones.

"Hello, I'm Park Jimin. I'm the Director of S.K Entertainment and will be assisting you all today to get the overall idea about how we handle foreign affairs here. Nice to meet you all." the visual God breaks the awkward silence after formally introducing himself.

There are some people in this world who can get the attention of everyone around them just by breathing and I guess Park Jimin is one of them. And I can see him smirking just by realizing the fact.

He opens the door and leads the way towards another elevator.

"First of all I need to clear a fact that we're in a contract with your university that we'll provide training only on one condition. That is confidentiality. You all are bound to keep everything confidential that you see here. Any leaked information will be considered as a breach to the contract and you'll have to pay heavy price for that." Mr. Park explains it with utmost professionalism.

We enter a large room with high class interior. There are more than 50-60 people in that room working in absolute silence. All that can be heard are sounds of keyboards and a slow jazz music playing in the speakers.

We are divided in 6 groups and 5-6 employees take the charge to explain the details. We start moving in absolute silence while the employees give us ideas about how they primarily handle foreign clients and about their foundation.
