Doctor Demon

Baekha was waiting for the twins outside a private internet cafe. She was wearing a loose sweatshirt with a hoodie and dark pants to hide her presence. Her real hair grew out a lot quicker than she had expected so she switched her style, opting to wear a short wig when she was Baek. Besides, it was hard to wear an itchy wig for most part of the day compared to the short one she could use for a few hours in her idol persona.

Leaning against the wall, she kept an eye out for the twins who said they were nearby. 

"Agh!" she winced. Baekha had been suffering from headaches for the past few days and it was strange because she never suffered from headaches before. Moreover, She was also feeling feverish.

She coughed a few times but did not let her discomfort affect her work. I'll take some medicines later on, she decided.

A black car turned around the corner and stopped in front of her. Minyoon got out of it followed by Yoonmin. The latter nodded at Baekha while Minyoon was his ursula cheerful self.

"Hi Haha!" He greeted her with a bright smile. Baekha gave him a stiff nod. Ever since the incident with Miyoo, Minyoon had been too friendly with her which was awkward. She was supposed to beat him and take his place as the top idol, not get chummy with him!

But Minyoon being himself, flocked around her calling her that nickname Miyoo gave her. 

"Who the hell are you calling Haha?" she scowled.

"You. Admit it, Haha! You're now part of the crowd!"

"I'd rather not be associated with you-"

"Alright kids!" Yoonmin declared. "Stop fighting and let's start planning! What's the update?"

Baekha made a face at Minyoon and turned to Yoonmin. "It's time to send the mail," she stated.

She led them to the internet cafe. The owner knew her so he booked  a private corner for her. Since her parents were ignorant and obsessed with their dead son, Baekha was free to do whatever she wanted. In her spare time, she hung out at the cafe, playing games. 

Taking a seat at her usual computer, she turned it on. "Okay," she muttered. "We need to send that Miho and her minion an email on behalf of Minyoon's agency. Are the details of the contest ready?"

"They're ready," Yoonmin said. "We're announcing tonight. Don't you need the details of our official email account?"

"Good and no."

Baekha flexed her fingers. The twins watched as she opened a command box and began to type in complicated codes on it.

"Oi, are you…" Minyoon frowned. "Are you hacking our system?"

"Yes."

Baekha ignored their shocked faces as she hacked into their agency's official account and accessed it.

"You guys have a really weak system," she muttered. Typing in a message, she put Miho and Sera's email addresses in the box before scheduling the mail to be sent at exactly 9 PM.

"There!" she exclaimed. "Done. This will put those two idiots against each other."

"And the manager just told me that the contest will be announced tonight," Minyoo said, checking his phone. "Are you sure this is going to work? What if they refuse?"

"Miho will never refuse this opportunity," Baekha told him. "She's too much into you. And Sera will do everything she can to stay near Yoonmin. After all, he's coordinating the contest, right?"

"Right…" Yoonmin said, scowling a little. He let Sera hang out with him and Soobin quite a few times despite his discomfort. It relieved him that Soobin finally cut off ties with her. At least his girl was gaining some common sense.

But he could not say the same for Sera.

Baekha's phone rang up. It was her manager Jango. She disconnected the call.

"Isn't that an important call?" Minyoon asked.

"It's spam," she lied. "Anyways, I need to go-"

A sudden wave of dizziness hit her and Baekha nearly toppled forward. Minyoon, who stood nearest to her, instinctively grabbed her before she could fall off.

"Oi, Haha!" He called out her nickname. To his shock, her skin was burning!

Was this girl pretending to be fine all this time? Minyoon wondered. Yoonmin also stooped down to help. Baekha's face was pale and she touched her temple. The headache was getting worse and the fever only kept increasing.

What the hell is happening? She wondered. Is it a virus?

"Oi!" Minyoon called for her. "Are you alright? Let's take you to the hospital-"

"I'm fine!" she claimed. Gathering up her remaining strength, she slowly stood to her feet. She felt wobbly but she could walk.

"I'll go home and rest," she said. Her voice was weak and barely a whisper. 

"We'll drop you off!" Minyoon said at once.

"He's right," Yoonmin added. "You should come with us. We'll drop you off-"

"Don't be stupid!" she snapped at them. "You'll have to go back to your agency to prepare for tonight's contest! I'll be fine. I have my own car."

Without another word, Baekha headed towards the exit, leaving them behind. Minyoon stared after her, debating whether to go after her or not. He decided to go but Yoonmin stopped him.

"Don't," he advised. "It'll hurt her pride if you treat her as a weak person."

"But she's ill!" Minyoon protested.

"She is. But she doesn't want help. She wants people to treat her as normal. She's used to doing things on her own. Helping her will only make her feel weaker and drive her away. Give her some time."

Minyoon sighed. They watched her trying to put up a strong front as she left the cafe.

Once outside, Baekha got into her car. Her driver, Dokyung, noticed her state and was alarmed.

"Young Miss!" he exclaimed. "You're-"

"Take me to the agency!" she ordered in a horse tone. "I have a show tonight. I can't miss it."

"But-"

"Just do it!"

Baekha did not mean to be rude with him but she had very little time. They needed to teach those bullies a lesson.

I'll be fine, she assured herself. I only need a few medicines. That's all.

Dokyung watched her through the mirror and was concerned. She laid her head on the seat, trying to catch a little bit of sleep. Dokyung was afraid that something bad was happening with Baekha. He even raised the concern with Youngjoon and Ciara but they gave him a cold response.

Those two really don't care about their own daughter, he thought in disgust. God knows when they'll learn!

Unbeknownst to them, an invisible figure was sitting next to Baekha, absorbing her energy. Sungki had been sucking out more energy from his sister than usual because he was impatient. The shaman told him that the girl might die if he continued to do that but Sungki needed a lot of power to take over Siwan's body. 

"That fucking asshole!" he growled as he absorbed more of Baekha's energy. "He's ruining everything!"

No matter how many times he tried, it was impossible to possess him. The shaman told him that Siwan was mentally too strong to possess and to seek someone else but the demon was adamant.

Jisoo...His Jisoo was with that bloody doctor! He was not going to let them stay together for long.

"Just a few more days!" he growled. "A few more days and I'll make Jisoo mine again…"
