When Jimin first mentioned the name of the person who sabotaged Laurel it didn't much surprise her. Whereas Jin was agitated and wanted to avenge Laurel's worries she played very passive.

"Jagi, we have to get her back somehow." he exhausted carrying on the conversation that Laurel told him to get over 10 minutes ago.

"There's no need, she already has her solo as second Female lead, I just hope she'd put on a better show than I could." Laurel spoke but she wasn't content about the situation knowing that this person had sat out to take everything she worked so hard for worried her.

Seokjin pouted at Laurel's response as he held her dance bag in his hands. "Jagiya what do you want for lunch during your break?" he asked trying to change the conversation.

Laurel hadn't thought about eating since she became aware of the news, Jimin had overheard the group of girls laughing during auditions when Ji-Su had told her friends about Laurel's eating disorder. Making harsh comments about her weight not changing drastically enough.

Laurel still struggled with thoughts of skipping meals in her mind but they were always replaced with sweet words of encouragement from Jin instead, but Ji-Su's comments put her appetite on hold.Knowing that Seokjin would never allow her to skip her three meals she made up an excuse

"Jin you don't have to bring me lunch for practice um we're getting catering." she spoke trying to sound as confident as ever, Seokjin knew her like the back of his hand now and can detect a change in emotion in a minute.

"Catering? jagi you're picky." he deadpanned.

She did know this but she made the statement anyhow "I know but it's like salads and fruits very healthy I'd enjoy eating it." Seokjin sighed, he never liked the change of the daily routine. He quite enjoyed making meals for Laurel and helping her recover.

"Okay Jagi just have a good practice." Seokjin spoke as they were outside her dance studio. He cupped her face between his palms and left a chaste kiss on her lips.

"I could go home with Jimin and Jungkook if you don't mind." Laurel suggested as Seokjin shrugged.

"Yeah but don't be out long." he asserted now removing her dance bag from his shoulder and placing it in her hands.

"Bye jagi." he waved as Laurel walked into the dance studio. The setting was chatty as Jimin and Eunji were center stage. Laurel sat down near the rest of the class as they watched them perform.

"Hi Noona," a timid Jungkook spoke sitting next to Laurel in a crisscrossed position. "I'm nervous about my performance... with Ji-Su she hasn't been taking practice very well." he whispered Laurel furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

"What do you mean? she got the part?" Laurel spoke.

"She says she's drained and tired... no energy and she makes things hard." Jungkook pouted as they both directed their attention to Jimin and Eunji.

"Jimin would you please move left of stage." Professor Hyun-Jae directed Eunji had just learned the choreography a few days ago and had to change a few moves to fit her ability. The dance that was originally choreographed by Jimin and Laurel didn't fit Eunji perfectly but she tried her best in the short notice.

"Okay next, Jungkook and Ji-Su." Professor Hyun-Jae called making Jungkook sigh loudly and pout.

"You can do it." Laurel cheered as Jungkook dragged his body to center stage his lost presence next to Laurel being replaced by Jimin.

"He looks miserable," Jimin laughed as Laurel shook her head

"If I had to be near her I would too."she sighed.

"Cue the music." Professor Hyun-Jae shouted as the two began their routine Jungkook trying his best to keep up with Ji-Su's off beat movement. Ji-su went to jump as Jungkook tried to lift her which resulted in a loud fall.

"Ji-Su!" Professor Hyun-Jae shouted as she pushed herself off the ground. "I apologize Professor I'm just not feeling great at the moment ."

Professor Hyun-Jae frowned "Stop making it so hard on your partner to lift you think light ." she spoke as she directed everyone to take a break.

She hustled her body out of the dance studio with tears. The girls in the class cackled as Laurel got the repeated feeling of when it happened to her.

"Jimin-nah I'll be back." Laurel spoke as she silently walked out the class and into the locker rooms where she figured Ji-Su ran to. Tears combined with drastic-regurgitating sounds filled the empty locker rooms. Laurel knew the feeling as she knocked on the bathroom door.

"Ji-Su, please don't do this, you're only hurting yourself." Laurel begged as violent sobs came from her mouth.

"Why do you care huh? What makes you any better than me?" Ji-Su shouted her limp body laying down in the bathroom stall. Laurel thought for a moment, nothing made her better than Ji-Su they both suffered from the illness but only she was ridiculed for it.

"Nothing, makes me better than you, but I'd wish I had someone to stop me sooner, I wish I had a friend that told me the consequences before it got too far." Laurel sighed the silence was immense. The sound of the toilet flushing as Ji-su opened the door with tired and restless eyes shocked Laurel as she frowned.

"Why are you being so nice to me? I ruined you." Ji-su whimpered.

"I'm taking the high road and we have more in common than I thought, would you like to get lunch later?" Laurel suggested.

  Ji-Su wiped her tear stained red face,"I'd love to."
