The faint hum of the studio's air conditioning was the only sound Jungkook could hear as he sat alone in the dimly lit room. His fingers danced over the keys of the piano, but no melody formed.

His thoughts were a mess of frustration and longing. Being a part of BTS was a dream come true, yet the weight of the global spotlight felt heavier than ever. Every step, every note, every word are controlled.

Jungkook leaned back in his chair, running a hand through his dark hair. His phone vibrated on the table, pulling him from his thoughts.

~ RM ~

*message* Take a break, JK. Don't overthink it. You'll find your sound.

~🥀 GML 🥀 Ms. author ~

Yupp. he's RM...

~🥀 GML 🥀 Ms. author ~

- Kim Nam-joon - nickname: RM (Rap Monster) - BTS member -Jungkook's supportive friend and partner in music discussion

↓

Finding his sound wasn't the problem—it was being allowed to share it. His voice is always celebrated, yet he felt like it did not belong to him anymore.

Just as he was about to reply, another message popped up.

~ Lisa ~

hey, heard you're at the studio. need company?

Jungkook hesitated. Lisa was not he usually trust in but her energy was infectious. she had a way of lighting up even in the darkest corners.

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

sure if you can get past Ji-hyun.

↓

~🥀 GML 🥀 Ms. author ~

- Yang Ji-Hyun - Lisa's demanding manager - focusing on BlackPink's commercial success

↓

Lisa paced outside her room, phone in hand.

peeking down the hallway, she spotted her manager's door slightly open. Taking a deep breath, she slipped past unnoticed, her heart pounding.

Moments later, she was outside the studio, knocking softly.

Jungkook opened the door. His expression a mix of surprise and amusement.

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

I didn't think you'd actually made it.

~ Lisa ~

*grinned stepping inside* You should know by now, I don't back down from a challenge.😁

The room was small but cozy, with scattered notebooks, half-empty coffee cups, and a keyboard in the center.

Lisa took a seat on the couch, looking around.

~ Lisa ~

So, what's eating you?

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

Same old stuff. Expectations. Deadlines. Being told what to sing, how to sing it.

~ Lisa ~

*nodded* You know, my manager has been on my case about sticking to dancing. She doesn't think my voice is strong enough to take the lead.

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

That's ridiculous. I've heard you sing. You've got talent.

~ Lisa ~

*smiled* Thanks. But it's not about talent. It's about control. They want us to fit their mold.

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

Then let's break the mold.

~ Lisa ~

Whoaahh! Are you suggesting rebellion, Mr. Golden Maknae?

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

Maybe I am.

[back at the BlackPink dorm]

Jisoo sat cross-legged on the couch, her notebook open on her lap. She was supposed to be writing lyrics but her thoughts kept drifting.

↓

~🥀 GML 🥀 Ms. author ~

- Kim Ji-soo - nickname: Jisoo - 24-year-old - BlackPink vocalist - Lisa's closest friend and confidante

Lisa's absence didn't go unnoticed.

~ Rose ~

You think she's with JK again?

↓

~🥀 GML 🥀 Ms. author ~

- Roseanne Chae-young Park - nickname: Rosé - BlackPink member - Lisa's vocal mentor and encouragement

~ Jisoo ~

Probably. Can you blame her? Ji-hyun's been relentless.

~ Rose ~

*sighed* She's just trying to protect us. But sometimes I wish they'd let us breathe.

Jisoo nodded, her gaze dropping to her notebook. She had always been the responsible one. But lately, she felt like a bystander in her own life.

~ Jisoo ~

Have you ever thought about going solo?

~ Rose ~

You? Going solo?

~ Jisoo ~

It's just a thought.

~ Rose ~

*smiled* You'd be amazing Jisoo. You just had to believe in yourself.

[back at the studio]

Jungkook and Lisa sat side by side at the keyboard experimenting with melodies. Their laughter filled the room as they stumbled through different notes and lyrics.

~ Lisa ~

Okay, okay. *catching her breath.

~ Lisa ~

One more time. I think I've got it now.

Jungkook nodded, playing the opening chords again. Lisa closed her eyes and sang, her voice soft but full of emotion. When she finished, Jungkook stared at her, impressed.

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

See? I told you. You've got talent.

~ Lisa ~

*grinned* Thanks. But this... this feels different. Like I'm finally doing something for me.

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

That's music should be. Something real. Something yours.

Lisa looked at him, a spark determination in her eyes.

~ Lisa ~

Then let's do it. Let's make something real. Together.

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

You know what this means, right? If anyone finds out...

~ Lisa ~

*shrugged* Let them. I'm tired of leaving in fear.

Jungkook stared at her for a moment then nodded.

~ JK (Jungkook) ~

Alright. Let's do it.
