Misunderstanding

Bishop and I walked out the door and headed for his car. He opened my door and we headed towards the rehearsal room. But on the way I realized that we were going somewhere else and asked him.

Me: '' Where do we actually go?''

Bishop : ''In a place where we won't be disturbed.''

Me: '' You mean?''

Bishop : ''You'll see!''

I didn't know what to believe, but I waited it to arrive.

At one point the car stopped and we came to a lake that was covered by ice.

Then I asked him:

Me: '' What are we doing here?''

Bishop : ''You know how to skate?''

''I do not!''

Bishop : '' Neither do I hahaha''

Then I laughed because I realized it was a joke. I looked at the view that looked great, the frozen lake and the white trees around looked very nice, it was like a picture.

Although winter was not my favorite season, the picture looks gorgeous. So I stayed silent for quite a while. After a few minutes, Bishop asked me if I wanted to drink something and I nodded. We headed to a cafe in the area and found a table.

Bishop asked for the menu and he ordered a coffee and I got a hot chocolate.

After our drinks came he started asking me various things.

Bishop : '' So you will stay with us for a year, I want to get to know you better.''

Me: '' Ok!''

Bishop : '' Can you tell me what that book is about? How did you manage to get the CEO to call you right here?''

Me: '' I also asked him the same thing and he told me he just liked my story.''

He didn't get to ask me anymore, as his phone rang.

Cherry called him. Following the discussion between the two.

Bishop: '' Hi!''

Cherry: '' Bishop, where are you?''

Bishop: '' I went for a walk with Alice!''

Cherry: '' Who is Alice?''

Bishop: '' The girl who moved to us, I told you about her. But I didn't get her to know you.''

Cherry: '' I want to talk with you!''

Bishop: '' Now?'

Cherry: '' Yes!''

Bishop: '' But it will take something until I get home!''

Cherry: '' I'm coming, give me the address!''

Bishop texted Cherry the address, he seemed very upset.

In about 10 minutes Cherry appeared. You could not avoid him, because he was tall and dressed in black. He seemed very irritated when he entered the cafe. He walked over to our table.

When I saw him in front of us for a moment my breath was cut off, because I must admit it was so beautiful, but I tried not to let it be seen.

Bishop : '' Cherry, what happened?''

Cherry : '' I want to talk to you.''

Bishop : '' You can talk while Alina is here.''

Cherry : ''It's something personal.''

Then I got up from the table and went to the bathroom, there were no free tables. Bishop wanted to come after me, but Cherry stopped him.

The discussion between the two began.

Cherry : '' Are you crazy?''

Bishop : ''Why?''

Cherry : 'How could you accept to move to our house this girl?''

Bishop : ''The CEO decided this and I executed myself.''

Cherry : '' auch ...''

Bishop : '' But what happened?''

Cherry : ''I don't trust her. It seems doubtful.''

Bishop : ''Why do you think that?''

Cherry : '' What do you know about her?''

Bishop : '' I'm trying to find out.''

Cherry : '' From yesterday I receive some strange messages and calls from unknown numbers.''

Bishop : ''And what does it have to do with her?''

Cherry : '' She is the only one who stays with us in the house and we know nothing about her. How could I be calm? I can't sleep because of this and you want me to calm down? What if there is a sasaeng?''

Bishop : '' I don't think so.''

Cherry : '' How are you so sure?''

Bishop : '' She seems to be a good girl.''

Cherry : '' Do you now read thoughts?''

In the meantime I had found another table and was sitting there. I was thinking of the stranger I had met accidentally that night. I was thinking, when Cherry came to my table.

Cherry : '' I want to talk to you.''

Me: '' What is it about?''

Cherry : '' How were you recruited?''

I: ''In December I sent the book written by me through courier(I translated into English) and then I received a positive response.''

Cherry : ''And what is so special about that book?''

Me: '' It's something personal, something that happened to me and I wanted to make that happen public.''

Cherry : '' Where are you from? The country?''

Me: '' Romania.''

Cherry : ''What are you doing?''

I: '' I translate and write.''

Cherry : ''How old are you?''

I: ''35.''

Cherry : '' what? you don't seem to be older than 25!''

Me: ''Thanks for the compliment! I think Bishop feels alone. It's not nice to leave him alone.''

Cherry : '' Hey! I'm not done with you!''

I turned to Bishop who was waiting at the table. So I asked him what we were doing next and he wanted to say something.

Bishop : '' Hey Cherry now you have .....''

He couldn't say anything as Cherry put his hand to his mouth.

I didn't know what to believe. We all went outside, Bishop got a phone call and said he had to leave urgently, so I was just with Cherry . Then he asked me if I wanted to go to the Trade Force offices and I accepted. He told me to stay in the rehearsal room where Ken was training alone, and he left and said he would come back later. I was alone in the room. Ken didn't noticed I was there. The dance was very beautiful, it was not a regular dancer but it had something special, the movements were very accurate but also graceful at the same time. At one point he noticed that I was in the room and he came to greet me.

Ken: -''Hi Alice. What are you doing here?''

Me: '' Cherry brought me here and said to wait for him.''

Ken: '' Oho. Cherry came with you?''

Me: '' Yes.''

Ken: '' Where is he now?''

Me: '' He said he has something to do and he comes back, to wait for him.''

While I was with Ken in the rehearsal room, Cherry had arrived in the CEO's office.

Cherry :'' Good morning.''

CEO: '' What brings you here Cherry ?''

Cherry : '' I want to talk about something.''

CEO: ''Say. Do you want something to drink?''

Cherry : '' I drive. Just water!''

CEO: '' What is it about?''

Cherry : '' Alice is the girl who moved to us.''

CEO: ''Yes, did you know her?''

Cherry : ''Yes. I don't know, but it seems strange to stay with us in the house.''

CEO: '' Why is it weird? Wasn't that your desire?''

Cherry : ''I'm serious. From yesterday I still receive strange messages and calls from unknown numbers. Isn't this a coincidence too big?''

CEO: ''Alice is a fan, not a bad person believe me.''

Cherry :'' How can you prove it?''

CEO: '' Look read the book she wrote, then we talk.''

Cherry : '' Oh, well, I'll do that.''

Then the CEO handed him the book and Cherry quickly went to the car and put it in a torpedo to hide it so no one would see it.

In the meantime ken showed Alina a few dance moves and they started laughing.

Cherry came in and told Alina to go with him. Ken said goodbye and continued his rehearsals.

Cherry and Alina headed for the car, he opened the door for her to enter, but she sat back. Then Cherry told her to go down and climb in front.

What could she do but accept? So she went up in front.

So Cherry could see her better. She didn't even look at him, but she glanced at the window, thinking of the stranger she hoped to see again soon.

This bothered Cherry , because he was used to always being in the spotlight and all the girls look after him, but it wasn't the case of Alina who completely ignored him :))))))))))))) )))))))))))))

Cherry glanced at her, but nothing, she look at the window.

They arrived home, it was almost lunchtime. Alina went to her room, and Cherry returned to the car to pick up the book, but was surprised by Samson coming from the yard with Vivi (the puppy) and asked him curiously what is that book. Cherry didn't want to tell him but at Samson's insistence he told what it was about. Then Samson told him that he wanted to read the book together. Cherry agreed, as long as he remained secret until he learned the truth about those strange calls.

Meanwhile, Alina was in her room and she was thinking how she went in the morning, and in her mind the image of that stranger with beautiful eyes appeared. For a moment she made the association with Cherry .

Alice:'' It looks similar at the eyes. The truth is, Cherry has beautiful eyes.''

Alina: '' I need to calm down, otherwise I'll get to talk to myself.''

While she was thinking someone knocked on the door.

Paul: '' Can I come in?''

Me: '' Yes.''

Paul: ''Come to eat.''

Me: '' What's the clock?''

Paul: ''It's 1pm''

Then they both went downstairs where Cherry was preparing food. Seeing him from behind Alina was a little forbidden. He had a pretty wide back, he could see that he was going to the gym, his muscles could be distinguished by the black shirt :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) )))))))))))))))))))))

They all sat down at the table, and Cherry served the food to everyone.

After they finished eating, Samson proposed to all play a "Truth or dare" game.

They took a bottle and swirled it. He came to Paul's side who had to ask Samson.

Paul: '' Truth or dare?''

Samson: '' dare.''

Paul: '' I challenge you to apply lipstick.''

Samson: '' I didn't have one.''

Paul: '' haha But Alice has.''

Then I went upstairs and brought him a dark purple lip :)))))))))))))))))))))))))) Samson went with him and even came to him well, he looked like a vampire :))))))))))))))))))))

Then the glass came right next to Cherry who asked me:

Cherry: ''Alice, truth or dare?''

Me: '' Truth.''

Cherry : '' Is it true that you wanted to come to the studio to see me yesterday?''

Me: '' No, Ken told me it's the bathroom.''

Cherry : ''Sure sure.''

Paul: '' Stop it, come on, let's continue the game.''

The glass dropped to Samson, then to Paul, then to me.

Me: '' Cherry, truth or dare?''

Cherry : ''truth.''

Me: '' Is it true that you don't like me?''

Cherry : ''.....''

Paul and Samson: '' You don't want to drink something?''

At that moment Ken entered the door and saved the situation.

Ken: '' What smells so good?''

Paul: '' Cherry is cooking.''

I went to my room, I didn't understand what Cherry had with me.

At one point I heard a caterwaul, for a moment I thought that it's in my head, but it came from Cherry's studio, so I took advantage that he was down with the boys and I slipped into him in the studio, this time wanting to see what this is about. When I opened the door, that noise was heard even louder. I went to bed, nothing, at one point I went to the bathroom and there I found the cat and the kittens I had seen in the center and I realized that Cherry is actually the stranger I was attracted to. But I decided to keep secret what I discovered. Within myself I was glad he was, even though he seemed insubstantial.

I went to the room smiling, but what I didn't know was that someone had seen me when I left Cherry's studio. That person was Samson.

Reached in the room, I thought I would talk to my mom to see what she was doing, so I sent her a message, but I didn't get a response. Then I decided to read something. I searched the small library in leader 's room (where I was staying) and found a book in English, but over a few I fell asleep. At one point, the door opened and someone approached the office. At that moment I woke up ... but there was nobody. I didn't fall asleep again, anyway, it was too early at 3pm, so I decided to go for a walk in the yard. I walked that way for 30 minutes when I saw Bishop coming from the garage. It seemed pretty serious. He approached me and asked me what I was doing alone. I told him I was a little out. He asked me if he could accompany me and I nodded as yes. We took a little walk, and then he asked me if I want to walk like we did this morning and I told him I would like it.

Then we returned home, the rest of the boys were either in their rooms or doing their work. Bishop climbed up and headed to Cherry's studio.

The discussion between the two.

Bishop: '' Hi Cherry.''

Cherry : '' Hi Bishop''

Bishop: '' Do you feel better?''

Cherry : '' Yes.''

Bishop: '' I'm glad, I told you it would be fine.''

Then he left the studio and went in his room and changed, took a shower and started singing.

In the meantime Cherry started reading the book. There was a lot going on in his mind. He didn't understand how he could misunderstand Alina. As he read, he realized that he had judged her wrong and that he was actually a very good person and had no guilt for what was happening to him. Somehow he is glad that she is not the cause of his problems. He didn't even notice when it got dark and he finished reading the book. Then he paused for a moment.

Cherry : '' I am an idiot. I judged her too harsh''

Then he went to the bathroom, took the box with the cat and the kittens and called a veterinary friend who told him he could take them there. He went to the car and headed for his veterinary friend. He couldn't leave the cat in that state in the bathroom, it was too risky. The cat bleeds a little and that worried him.

He arrived with the cat and the kittens at the vet who told him he had to be under surveillance all night. If it goes well that night, if it is not. The cat was very weak, had lost a lot of blood and there were two options: either to die or to live.

Cherry felt guilty for the poor animal's condition.

Then the vet tried to calm him down.

Vet: '' Cherry , it's not your fault it's in this condition. You helped her and the kittens. You did everything you could.''

Cherry : '' No, I could do more. But no. I stubbornly thought I could solve them all. If the cat dies I won't forgive myself.''

Vet: '' I know you have a good soul. I don't know how many people would have done what you did.

Hearing those words, Cherry thought of that girl he had seen in the evening and realized he was none other than Alice.''

In his mind he had reproaches for conscience because he had doubted her so much.

He had to apologize somehow, but he was too proud to do so.

Will he succeed?

Will pride leave him?
