Chapter 47: You're here
The remaining members of 5-Emperor's were lazing around in one of their designated vocal practice rooms. All of them had been cooped up there from the past two hours. They had been urgently summoned by their main vocalist- Ray- without any proper reason. He only texted Mui nine words stating
'Emergency, meet me in an hour at the company.'
and nothing else. Not even a little 'good morning' or 'are you there yet?' All of them didn't even know if they were supposed to be there. They just came along when Mui mentioned Ray, text and emergency in the same sentence. Now obviously they were regretting the decision.
Kai was sitting in a corner- away from the 'troublesome trio'- immersed in his phone with apt attention. It didn't feel as if he was paying any attention to others mutterings.
And the 'troublesome trio' which consisted of the eldest Timo and the younger bunch Mui and Vic was playing some dumb games and kicking each other- in short, they were finding dumb ways to pass the time.
The person who got kicked the most was obviously the youngest member Vic. His butt was going to bloom like a beautiful red flower at this rate.
Vic: (whining) I don't want to play with you guys anymore!
Timo: (chuckling) Come on! it's not our fault that you're not good at these games.
Vic: (pouting) I am pretty good, you guys are obviously cheating and I have to give in every time just because you're older than me!
Mui: (patting his head) it's your duty to get bullied from us. You signed up for it when you decided to join the group.
Timo: (smirking) just admit that you really enjoy our bullying. Otherwise, you'd be depressed.
Vic: (huffing) Call me back when Ray comes! I'm not staying with you guys any longer!
He didn't wait for their reply and hurriedly walked past their leader who was for some unknown reason was frowning at his phone. He faintly heard Kai muttering something under his breath but couldn't make out what was being said.
They say that curiosity killed the cat and Vic was one such curious cat. He stopped short, all his past grievances forgotten. He turned back and looked at their leader with a glint in his eye.
Vic: Big bro!
Timo and Mui were laughing at Vic's retreating frame but they too were surprised when he suddenly changed his mind. Timo looked at their youngest brother and noticed him looking eagerly at Kai. The signal was enough and the remaining two didn't waste any time in pulling their chairs and sitting around their 'lost-deeply-in-phone' leader.
The coyotes all surrounded the poor lamb who was weaponless and currently mindless.
Mui: (whispering) what do you think he's so lost in?
Timo: (whispering back) I have no idea. What should we do?
Vic: (adding his two cents) steal his phone?
Mui: nope! I don't want to get beaten! You can do that if you're interested.
Vic: (shaking his head) not me but-
They turned to look at Timo who was thinking hard. He looked up when he didn't hear them whisper anymore and was startled when he saw them looking at him with 'conspiration' clearly written on their faces.
Timo: (confused) what?
Mui: (smirking) what if you steal his phone?
Kai: (sigh)...
Vic: (urging more) see he's sighing! it's something very important but he isn't telling us anything about it!
Mui: (with bright eyes) and he won't dare do anything to you since you're older than him!
Timo: but-
Vic: (turning to Mui) wanna bet? I bet a 5000 that big bro won't be able to steal it!
Mui: (shaking his head) I won't cuz I know he won't-
Their arguments and the mention of the bet were enough to get Timo in on their scheme of snatching and running away with Kai's phone.
While all this scheming was being done Kai had finally put away his phone and heard all their 'loud' whispering.
Kai: (clearing his throat) you want to do what?
The trio looked up with shocked eyes and found their leader glaring at them menacingly. Mui and Vic, who were the actual masterminds behind their failed scheme gulped loudly.
Kai: (vein-popping) you-
The little kids didn't wait for a beat longer and ran out of the room fearing for their precious little life. But their bad luck was so rotten that day cuz when they opened the door they didn't expect that Ray would be standing in front of it and would be hit on the nose- pretty hard- as the end result. Moreover, Mui who was the culprit was frozen in shock holding the doorknob but sadly Vic ran into him and both of them along with the poor doorknob fell onto Ray who had already fallen to the ground in pain.
Timo and Kai followed out and looked at the chaos outside.
Timo: (bored) you're here finally?

Sanchi94 Poor Ray and his poorer nose!
They both probably have a strong affinity to bad luck.
Chapter 48: Perfection
An hour later everyone was finally settled down in the vocal practising room.
Ray sat glowering at the two young troublemakers. The glare was so icy and it would have frozen the poor Mui and Vic if not for the fact that his nose was filled with cotton to stop the bleeding. The frigid glare of Ray was diminished in it's potential due to his broken and sorry-looking nose.
The two young troublemakers were actually very timid in the beginning while busy dealing with their own injuries but as the time passed they couldn't help but become more and more daring looking at Ray's misery. They couldn't help but silently snigger and pass comments between each other.
Timo who had miraculously became the peacemaker of the group sat in the middle trying his best to pacify the situation. Kai, on the other hand, was helping Ray with his treatment.
Ye-Jin felt like a sixth wheel midst them. She felt as f she was imposing on them at the wrong time. Their bond and intimacy were open in front of her. She was being useless at the moment and she couldn't help but let her mind wander. Looking at the guys she started to wonder about a recent rumour that was circulating in the fan clubs around and outside the country.
One of the media outlets which was notorious for publishing scandalous rumours had reported that the 5-Emperors was apparently a group where the band-mates didn't get along well with each other. It was completely a profit-oriented group and none of the five guys was as close as they pretended in front of the cameras.
This report had attracted many keyboard warriors who had quickly started to slander the group for misleading people for their selfish benefits. Some braver ones had also started to circulate an online petition to ban the group from the entertainment scene.
Although the issue had been properly taken care of by the company and others had some doubts But Ye-Jin mused to herself that if all those fools were to witness the scene she was currently being treated to then it would've been a huge slap to all their faces.
This was more than enough for anyone to conclude that the guys shared a very intimate bond between them.
Thinking till this Ye-Jin's face was sub-consciously adorned with a very pretty smile. She would have imagined more things if someone hadn't gently hit her shoulder. She was startled out of her wits but calmed soon enough when she saw it was Kai who was looking down at her with a frown.
Kai: Are you all right?
Ye-Jin: (nodding) yes I am alright.
Kai: (running a hand through his hairs) I am very sorry that you had to witness us being a mess when you came to meet us for the first time.
Ye-Jin had stars in her eyes when she saw Kai up close but when he ran a hand through his hairs it was as if someone had turned on a switch in her. She had transformed completely into a fangirl she was.
Ye-Jin: (breathing in) Oh my god! you just ran a hand through your hairs! I finally got to witness your all-consuming perfection up close and live! I am blessed.
Although Ye-Jin thought that she had said all of it in her head but sadly she had almost inaudibly whispered everything out.
Only Kai who was closest to her had heard her. When she realised what she had done a beat later and her eyes widened like a little scared rabbit, he chuckled lightly.

Ray: Author did you forget me? Are you abandoning me?
Me: (sheepishly) I had exams and in the midst of it fell ill. It wouldn't have turned worse if not for my carelessness. I haven't forgotten you, baby.
Ray: (pouting) I won't speak with you for the time being.
Me: oh well-
Ray is recently being pretty cranky, maybe breaking one's nose too frequently has that effect on people?
