Zanaya's POV
"Wow, I guess they really were together before."
"But isn't he dating Sally way back before?"
"The timeline was weird. Don't you think Seth dated her while dating Sally?"
"You think so?"
"I pity her. Maybe that's the reason why she was sent to the hospital. She can't accept the fact that Seth left her."
My stomach churned after hearing all those murmurs from the staffs beside the stage when we passed by.
It has been two weeks since I was out from the hospital and we are currently scheduled to perform in a Univerity Festival.
I had to do a double take when I heard what the other girl said.
"Did you notice that she no longer has the necklace?"
"But I was sure Sally was wearing the same necklace when they performed earlier."
No way.
Seth's POV"Awww." I groan as I felt my body hit the hard cold floor.What the fuck.I balled my fist in anger.I look up and glared at the person towering in front of me."You better have a good reason for pushing off my bed Grey or you're dead," I stated and he looked at me in panic.He started pulling off the floor but I pushed him away."Seth, you need to hide. Storm was looking for you. I swear he looks ready to smack your face, not even a swag God can stop him." his eyes widen and I turned around when I heard my door burst open emitting a very angry Storm.What did I do?"Hey, Storm, stop!" Raze tried to stop the other and I quickly stood up from the floor and hide behind Grey.He may be younger but he is definitely stronger than most of us.
Zanaya's POV"Are you sure you are okay?" Cali asked for the nth time as I continue my weeping inside the van.The girls and I are on our way back home and I find it hard to pretend that I am fine after finding out that my wedding ring is currently hanging on that bitch's neck.I mean, it wasn't just any ring. And even if it is just a promise ring, isn't it right for him to give her a new one? Technically and legally speaking, that ring was mine and I will always be the sole owner of that goddamn ring.The fact that Seth is no longer mine, I can accept that even though it hurts, but my ring? It feels like I'm being disrespected and it's not only hurting my ego but my self-esteem as well.Does he not have any respect left for me?"Zaya, stop crying," Tokyo muttered as she continued to rub my back to calm me down.Our manager looked at them helples
Seth's POV"No," I told her as she stood on the ground, her eyes bloodshot and it pained me to see her having a hard time.But I can't let her go. It'll kill me.I won't let this happen.She looked at me painfully."Please..." she pleaded. "This relationship started wrong anyways. For all we know, you don't even love me and you're just being caught up in this stupid wedding so now, you think you love me. Loving me isn't your responsibility," she whispered and somehow, I felt a sharp pain in my chest."Is that how you feel?" I asked her.My feet walked on its own until we're facing each other.I brush the hair covering her face. She looked like a mess because of the tears and the drops of water from taking a shower."Don't you love me?" I stared at her eyes and tried to check how she feels but she
Zanaya's POVIt has been two days since I woke up without Seth beside me.After what happened, I fell asleep and he had to go because they have a concert in Singapore that day. At least, that's what it says in his message.To be honest, I was awake before he goes but I pretended to be asleep.The memories of what happened to us still linger in my mind.Our marriage has been finally consummated.Just remembering the things that I did that night is enough to make me pretend to sleep in front of him.And the fact that he was still confessing to me while I was supposed to be sleeping doesn't really help at all.I remember how he hugged me tighter with my face on his neck while my arms wrapped around him.I can't really move because we're both naked and I don't have the courage to face him at this time
Zanaya's POV"So, does that mean she's the real girlfriend?""It was obvious that it was her.""Wow, was she hospitalized because she was depressed after she saw pictures of Sally and Seth together?""I hope Seth isn't with her out of pity, you know since she's been hospitalized and all.""Maybe she's using Seth to be more famous.""No, Seth can't date!""They look so good together."I don't know, I still ship Sally and Seth.""Did she took Seth away from Sally?""What a bitch.""Was Seth two-timing?"I groan as Tokyo reads all the comments online.I'm a bitch, I know.It's been two days since the incident but a lot of fans are still talking about it.Though some of t
Zanaya's POV"Are you happy?"My eyes squinted as I stare at Seth's face.I was lying on the couch with my head on his lap while he continously stroke me hair, sending shivers within me."Of course." I said as I give him my best smile.Why won't I be happy?I have my job, my family, adorable fans, cool set of friends, and a loving and handsome boyfriend slash husband.Though a lot of things have happened, a lot of heartaches and pain, I'd still chose to be with him.After the surprise birthday party that they prepared for me, I woke up next morning with Seth lying beside me, our clothing scattered all over the floorYep. I just had my very first birthday sex.I can clearly remember how Seth pinched my cheeks after he caught me pretending to be asleep wh
Zanaya's POVMy hand reached for the jacket that Tokyo was handing."You know, at this rate, not only the people of our country will know that you two are dating, but most probably the whole world." Tokyo giggled as she nudges me by the shoulder.I bite my lip as I notice Seth looking at our direction, his arms on his hips like a mad mom.And he still looks fucking hot."You won't melt due to sunlight Zaya, but because he was staring at you too much. And openly, if I may add." Max smirked and I had to shake my head in disbelief.We just ended the rehearsal for a festival and the fact that Seth had been eyeing me with a look of both lust and disapproval made me realized that he isn't liking the fact that I removed my jacket earlier, revealing a black fitted crop top inside.It was a little hot and wearing my sweatpants with a j
Seth's POV"Hey, don't you think you're being too much?" Sky shook his head as he peak into my phone, reading the last message that I sent to Zaya."What?" I pouted."You do realize that it's her job to look pretty, right? And you can't expect her to wear long jumpsuits or pants while dancing." he snickered and I rolled my eyes on him.A laugh escaped my lips as I saw the frustrated look on my stylist, not liking the fact that I kept on moving as she was trying to fix my make up."Seth, you need to be careful." Raze muttered. "You were openly staring at your girlfriend earlier. Don't you know a lot of fancams are being uploaded online even for rehearsals?" he added as he stares at his reflection on the mirror, checking if everything was already set."He knows." Grey chimed in and I hated him a little for what he said next. "Because he's always watching
Cali's POV"Okay, this is so upsetting. Why are you able to go around like this when I was close to going crazy after I just gave birth to Ashton?" Zanaya scowled as we sat on the couch, on her hands were a bowl of nachos that we've been munching since she arrived. "We married two different men, Zanaya. They think and act the exact opposite like each other," I chuckled as Zanaya pouted. It's cute how she'd start whining about it."But it's unfair! You always have this time to chitchat with us not worrying that your baby will cry," I saw Storm shaking his head from afar. He was seated while he watches Ashton stare at our baby who was sleeping on the crib. Ashton was simply standing and staring at her in awe. He can hear our conversation as well as Seth. Storm takes care of our child. He likes to be hands-on and is always insisting that I take a rest. "Zanaya, our case was different. You kinda have a postpartum then which I don't. Plus, Storm may have gotten quite a few notes seeing
Cali’s POVI was literally lost about everything that was happening. Just then, the sound of Ashton's voice filled the room. "Aunt Chu!" my eyes turned towards Ashton the same moment their eyes snapped towards mine. Ashton stood up and walked towards me. "Aunt Chu, this yours?" he asked innocently and my eyes widened when he gave me a ring, a diamond one. Max and Tokyo's gasped filled the room while Zanaya was squealing. What the hell? Why were they acting like that? "Yah!" Storm's voice echoed the room and he looked so pissed off. Now, even Seth immediately kneeled beside the two. "I swear I just put it on top of the table. I didn't know Ashton will take the ring," he pleaded and my jaw almost dropped on the floor. So, this ring was Storm's?I saw how the girls were all acting giddy and excited. The place... The balloons and ribbons... The snowballs... The photos... Is this what I think it is? Slowly, my hands covered my lips as I started to shake. "Oh my God..." I whis
Cali’s POV"How long have you've been dating?""Storm! Do your members know about your relationship from the beginning?""What are your next plans?""California! What do you think about your fans' reaction? Now that all of WHISTLE is in a relationship, your fans are organizing a boycott! Are you going to disband?!""Storm! What can you say about the rumors that it was Cali who probably gave motive-”?The reporter wasn't even able to finish as Storm stopped midway after letting me in first, even covering my head for support. He faced the reporters particularly the last one who seemed taken aback at Storm's actions. He can be very intimidating. "First of all, it was me who made a move first," he started and all of the reporters kept their mouth shut. The power that he holds. "Second, when she first met me, I was merely Storm and she doesn't have the slightest idea that someone with a stage name of SHADOW’s Storm exists. And even so, Cali isn't the type of person who clings into some
Cali's POV"Cali, why are you here? You are supposed to be preparing for your press conference..." my boss asked and I bowed in greeting as I moved forward. He was sipping his coffee while reviewing a few documents he has in front of him. I can't remember how many times I've come here in this office, all because of my relationship with Storm. And every time I go out, it's either me crying or me being on my loneliest state.This specific office had never given me a good memory. The news about my debut anything good was all delivered on a conference hall downstairs. Sometimes, I dread coming in here. "Boss..." I started. There's this fifty percent chance that this talk wouldn't bring me any good like the past ones but I gotta try. "I know I've been pushing my luck a lot of times already but again, I want to ask for your permission," I started. He wasn't looking at me but that didn't stop me from speaking my thoughts. "I promise; I will work harder. I will make sure this relationshi
Storm's POV"I can't believe you're doing this," I turned around and saw Raze, struggling as he ties down the ribbons. I just passed him another set to finish. I was about to speak when we were startled after one balloon popped. "Yahhhh!!!" I glared at Sky and Grey who's playing. Seth was giving out a v-sign while grinning. To think that he's already married with a kid, he sure still acts a lot like Grey and Sky still. Well, he's almost of the same age after all. "Yah! Why do I have to do this when you're the boyfriend?" Raze snickered but continued tying the ribbons. "Right. I haven't slept since last night. Can't you like, get an organizer for this stuff or something?" Demo asked and I threw him my slippers. "You just woke up! So much for being my friend," I scowled and he laughed adorably. ", are you sure about this? I mean, this is something else. You're gonna have to live like how Seth and Zaya used to," Mono asked and I saw how all the boys focus where on me. My eyes shi
Cali's POV"What's happening? I thought everything was settled?" I paced back and forth as the girls try to pacify me. It hadn't been two weeks after Max and Sky revealed their relationship to the public and here we getting the biggest downfall on our careers after my relationship with Storm had been revealed. "Cali..." Zanaya was looking at me in worry while Tokyo and Max checks on the articles online. They were using Tokyo's laptop. It was there, on every social media platform, photos of me and Storm, from our dates when I was a trainee, those days when we got back together, and even those days when we already broke up. Everything was there and it scares me. I just woke up and everyone was in panic. I thought it has been taken cared of? Storm was not here and was still in their company. Our managers had gotten our phones because everybody has been contacting us. Fans are possessive. Imagine finding out Zanaya's marriage with Seth. That was more than enough to shake our career
Cali's POV"Cali..." the girls spread their arms and engulfing me in a hug. My lips quiver and I felt them brushing my hair and rubbing my back. It has been three days after the incident in which Storm had to leave the house after our managers decided it's best that we part ways after what happened. Everybody was frantic and I was so out of it that Storm had to call me every now and then to make sure everything was okay. His focus was all on me, how I was doing, if I've already eaten. He was so selfless I feel like I don't deserve him. Our boss didn't talk to me. I was never called to the seventh floor. Instead, a lot of meetings had happened and Storm told me they're trying to figure things out. What it is or their plans, I don't have any idea until we saw the articles on the internet about Sky and Max's relationship. Photos of their dates were shown. I was surprised to see multiple photos taken on multiple occasions too. So now I wonder if Boss had a lot of instances in which
Cali's POV"Sorry son, I know how much you suffered because of me," my father stated and it broke my heart to hear him say those words. I felt the air feeling like it was being taken out of my lungs. Why? Why did Storm suffer because of him? Did he do something to Storm? Curious, I stay glued hiding behind the wall. "It's all my fault and I will forever repent on my sins. If I didn't gamble, if that reporter didn't see you helping me, then BP Enterntainment wouldn't have to do something about it. You wouldn't have to sacrifice your love for her. You did a lot just so she can reach her dreams," my father added and I felt my world started crumbling in front of me. My knees weaken and it was as if my soul was being extracted from my body. What did I just hear? No. Storm didn't deliberately leave me a few years ago. He did it for me. Gambling is illegal in Korea and I can't believe my father actually even do that. "I'd do it again if I have to," my lips quiver at Storm's words.
Cali's POV"Are you sure this is a good idea?" I heard Storm's voice. My brows furrowed. He'd been acting so weird lately. It's been so long since he last went to our house and today is my father's birthday. We agreed that he'll drop by our house for dinner. Actually, I forced him into it. This was not the first time he'd visit our house but this will be the first time after I debut. Come to think of it, ever since we got back together, he never went to our house like he used to. Storm was close to my family. My Mom love him so much and my father adored him the same way. Even after we broke up then, I never heard my family saying anything bad about him. "We've talked about this Storm. It's my father's birthday," I told him in a stern voice. I felt his hand on mine tightening a little. Why is he so tense? He looked at me nervously. We were on the van together. "Did you tell them I'm coming?" he asked again and I raised an eyebrow at him. "It was meant to be a surprise? Or do yo
