The 3 Big Bang members arrived at t

The 3 Big Bang members arrived at their dorm to see Seungri and Jiyong sitting in the living room with bubble wrap and packing styrofoam around them. They guessed that Jiyong probably went and got the new TV. When they walked in, Seungri exclaimed excitedly.

“Look hyungs! Ji hyung bought us a projection TV and he put in a new sound system as well so it’s a total theatrical experience even when we are playing games!!”

The 3 members walked to the living room and just as what Seungri had said, Jiyong really bought them the projection television and when Seungri switch the TV on, they got a taste of the powerful audio system as well.

“Thanks Ji! This is a great thing! Maybe now we can have movie nights with the girls.”

Jiyong turned to the rest of his members and looked at them sincerely.

“TOP hyung, Bae, Daesung and Seungri, I want to apologize for my crappy behavior this afternoon while we were at the girls’ dorm and for the wilful request to have time off as well. I know this will put a stump in promoting Big Bang as 5 since it would mean that we probably won’t be putting out a new album but it would mean that all of you get to put out a solo album each. I think this might be the best arrangement. I have given it some thought while out shopping with Seungri just now. And I will be putting in this suggestion to sajangnim tomorrow if he had not already thought about it.”

“Ji, we understand where you are coming from. We also have to apologize because we believe that Chaerin left partly because we have been rather demanding towards our girlfriends about spending time with us. That was part of the reason why Dara noona came to Philippines because I was missing her so much that we got into a bit of a quarrel. And it was Chaerin who encouraged her to fly over when she saw Dara crying. She knew that it was going to be difficult to maintain the relationship if our 2 groups keep spending time away from Korea or if our schedule doesn’t match.”

“Yes, me too. I was really upset that Minzy couldn’t take the University entrance exams this year because of their tour. I had wanted her to be in the same university with me before I graduate so that we can have sort of a normal life as well.”

“Chaerin had to help cover up for Bommie every time she sneaked out in the middle of the night to meet me. She has also flown to Japan a couple of times to meet me when I got upset that we were just apart way too much.”

“So this is what sajangnim meant when he said Chaerin had to make the decisions for both 2EN1 and Big Bang? Because she was aware of all these and I’m not? How come none of you came to me about your relationships?”

“Honestly, we didn’t want both leaders to know. We know how you feel about dating within the company and we know how Chaerin would be burdened if she has to take care of everything including our relationships. But Chaerin eventually found out when she had to console her members when they broke down because of how we have been so demanding towards them.”

Youngbae rushed to explain why they didn’t let Jiyong know of their relationships and TOP continued.

“So we are sorry that in part, we might have been the cause of Chaerin stepping down as the leader and leaving. But we couldn’t imagine breaking up with our girl as well.”

Another few minutes went by without anyone speaking. No one dared to say more because Jiyong had gone totally quiet as he sat down on the couch. The 4 members looked at each other, not entirely sure what to do.

“Ji? Say something?”

Youngbae finally couldn’t stand the silence anymore. He knew he had to be the one to talk to Jiyong since they have been best friends since like forever.

“Bae, suddenly I feel like I’m so out of touch with everyone. Like I’ve been living in my own little world, without realizing that my actions affect other people or others might look to me for answers. Whether it was Chaerin or you guys, it really felt like I’m such an ass for having treated you guys the way I have been doing. Why am I still the leader when I have forgotten that I have group members? Oh god, I feel like such a failure right now.”

Youngbae sat down beside Jiyong and gave him a pat on the back. Then he looked at Jiyong and smiled before saying.

“The reason why you are the leader has never changed. You set the focus Big Bang has to have and you have been true to that focus. You have kept us in line even when you strayed from time to time. But you will come back and be there again. No matter what happens, you will always be Big Bang’s leader, no one is going to come and take that away.

But you are slowly coming to the realization that you are not alone, that people look to you for directions in other aspects as well. And that is a good thing. If it had taken Chaerin to leave for you to realize that, then maybe it is a good thing after all. Especially if it gives you the wake-up call that we have all been a little afraid to give to you.”

“We are all sad that Chaerin left the way she did. But I believe she knows what she is doing and that she would achieve great things away from us, away from you. One day, when she had achieved what she needs to, she will be back.”

TOP went to Jiyong’s other side and gave his shoulder a squeeze. When Jiyong turned to look at him, he gave him a big smile which Jiyong returned. Jiyong turned to look at the 2 maknaes and smiled at them too.

“Alright, I think we have had a long day. Let’s go and rest then we can decide what we are going to tell sajangnim tomorrow about what we want to do. And please, don’t keep me out anymore. I want to know everything. I want to stop being just the leader and be a friend too.”

“GROUP HUG”

Seungri shouted and went towards where the 3 elders were. Jiyong looked at Youngbae and TOP then all 3 of them turned to look at Daesung. With one look, the 4 of them caught Seungri and tackle him and crushed him under all of them.

“AAHHHHHHHHHHH!! HYUNGS!!! PAIN! PAIN!! PAIN!!! OWWWW!!!”

Gaho who was observing everything that was going on since Jiyong and Seungri got back, got up upon seeing the scene and walked away.

Silly humans.
