"Wait- George? What are you doing here?" She sniffled, her clothes still sopping wet, making it look as if she had cried out a whole ocean all over herself. The man who had literally driven her into this journey was now standing at the door of her room, a small smile on his face. "Did Starship forget to send some of my things or-?"
"No Ms. Lee. I'm not here on any Official Starship business. But I can't tell you much more-... I'm just going to simply ask that you trust me. Go and change quickly. Bring nothing but yourself and meet me at the black cab out front in five minutes." Noticing her clear state of distraught he added- "Don't worry miss Lee..everything is about to get better." And like a whisp of wind, he disappeared, closing the door behind him as he left Lee to take in what he had just said.
"I have to get ready-" She sputtered as she began to scrambling between her things for a dry change of clothes.
She quickly dug out clean pants and a sweater before putting on dry socks and boots. Lee finished it off with a rain jacket and an umbrella before heading out the door and energetically scurrying down all those flights of stairs to the cab out front...
When it rains, it pours. Yet, despite how dreary and rainy it may be, you can choose to get soaked and let the water drag you down. Or...you can bring an umbrella and the rain can't touch you.

The interior of the cab was warm and dry, the leather of the backseat smooth under her fingertips. "So- where exactly are we going?"

I guess today was full of old memories...
After George put the car in park, he circled around to open the door for Lee and guide her to the front door. It was the restaurant where she had her first encounter with all of the guys.
A large paper sign on the front door read "Closed for private event."
With a slight look of confusion, Lee looked to George. "Don't worry..they are expecting you inside."
But who...?
Slowly, George opened the door for her, revealing a dimly lit and empty restaurant. Rose petals covered the the floor, like a small pathway through the building, leading her to her destination.
The ambiance was a complete change from the first time she had entered the place. A restaurant from which they had to escape the paparazzi...was now a warm and inviting mystery...
Following the petals, she eventually reached the end...The same table where they had shared their first meal and their first hours together.
Seven bodies sat in the booth. Seven pairs of eyes shifted their gaze onto her. Seven smiles beamed straight at her. "Welcome..." Jooheon chimed. "Come and sit..."
