13:Mr. Chin

I wanted to spend more time with Shin but I received a call from the office saying that Mr. Chin wanted to speak to me. When I told Shin that he seemed worried but I told him I would be fine. I was fine, yes but not hundred percent fine. One, he has never spoken to me after I went live drinking, after even being warned I did a second live with beer again, and two I'm the only member who was not yet done with my song. Let alone recording it, I was not yet done it the lyrics. I took a shower and headed to the office. This time round Shin insisted that I should go with my bodyguards because Mr. Chin never liked us walking around without any. I had to listen to my boyfriend right? Trust me it's just because he told me to go with the bodyguard and I obeyed him, or else I wouldn't have come with him.

Getting to the FG building, the drama was as usual. Good thing that my bodyguard never lets anyone come close to me unauthorized. It was a good thing coming with him all along. I pressed on the lift and it opened. I couldn't believe who came out. It was Axel, dressed casually in a sweatpants and huge t-shirt and then on slides. He looked like he was here unwillingly. I could tell from his eyes, he had a black mask on, and his hands in his pockets. He had been leaning on the lift and when he saw us he came out. He gave me the usual eye contact before bypassing me. I didn't even get to say hi, I looked as he walked slowly heading to the exit of the building. Sometimes I wonder why I like him because he always gives me a cold aura when he feels like it. But I wasn't supposed to think of him right now. I should be thinking of Shin, and getting done with whatever I had been called here for, and going back to the dorm and hanging out with Shin. He gives me full attention, unlike Axel.

I got to Mr. Chin's office, his two bodyguards on the door as usual. My bodyguard stood beside them. Even he wasn't supposed to go inside Mr. Chin's office unless he is called. Walking to the office after I was ushered in. He was on his seat, playing with a pen as usual.

"Good to see you... Evel...." He said showing me where to sit and I did so immediately. I didn't dare say anything because he looked like he was in a super bad mood.

" So when are you planning to start recording your song? You should know that you guys have less than a month to disband and you should have already released a song by then... Is anything bothering you?" He asked looking at me and I said no.

"I'll be done with it by the end of the week... I promise" I said and he nodded his head.

"So what kind of a video do you want to do?" He asked out of nowhere. I thought this was supposed to be decided by them once they listen to the song.

"You are good at editing videos, you even did the editing for the last song that you guys released a month ago... It even went viral after people realized that it was you who did the editing and the effects for the song" He said playing with his pen.

"Yes, I think I'll just do a simple video like that one... I also want to include my bandmates in the video... once I'm done sir, I would like to help your son like I promised" I said, and he smiled.

"Thank you for your concern but I think you shouldn't be bothered by that... You have a life ahead of you and helping my son is a process..." He said now looking down.

"I think I still wanna give it a try..." I said and he stood up.

"You don't want to mess up your life, do you? Are you ready to take the risk? It might mean that you'll have to get involved with him, are you ready to deal with a drug dealer? Are you ready to help a person who has been in jail countless times? I bet you think that I have a perfect son right? He is damaged. Are you ready to deal with a damaged person at a young age? What is there left of him? It's nothing Evel, there's nothing left of him, he is so damaged and I don't want you to get mixed up with him... just some weeks ago when you went to your house, not long after you left me here I received a call that he had been caught with drugs... I had to go and get him but he didn't even talk to me, he left me there, and that's not the first time, I should carry my cross, right? He is my son so I must find a way to help him. When his mother was still alive he wasn't like that at all, he was a sweet boy and to me, he is still my sweet angel, what has changed is that we don't talk, he was broken when his mom died and he ended in depression, and that's how he got into drugs... do you see how damaged he is? Please, just forget about the idea of helping him, I'll do my best to help him, that's why I'm here... To protect and help my son" He said and I could feel the pain in his voice. I even saw him rub a tear that was almost falling from his eyes.

"You've already tried, right? Maybe it's high time you let someone help you sir... I'm willing to help you... only if you let me." I said and stood up. I didn't give him time to reply because I know he would say no. I walked oy of the office and left him just like he had left me before. I could feel that he wanted to say something but he couldn't speak. I don't care what his son has been through, whether he is damaged or not. What matters is that I should find a way to help him. I have nothing serious to do once we disband and I could use that time to get to know his son.
