MAX hands glasses and a pitcher of water to Rena, Gina, Jane, Yhael, Leila, and June. All of them gladly drink as they all look at Rheanne's resting body.
"So Max, tell us what happened." Gina gets straight to the point and Max gladly nods and tells what happened. As Max tells what just happened before they arrived, indeed they all felt chills by their spine.
But for Rena and Gina. It's not just the chills. It felt like it was real, it's not a creepy feeling but real creepiness. Whilst for Leila and June, the strange energy was just almost equally strong as the energy they felt back at Jin's apartment. It made both of them look at each other.
"Well then. I wanna go to Jasper's apartment," Gina announces and stands up. "Now."
Max can only nod as Gina leaves, Rena bowing before following Gina and left.
"Stacey was hella scared. She wants to go here but Jasper didn't let her. So we just told her that we'll be going." Jane said.
"What do you think happened, Max?" Yhael asks the younger.
"I-I don't know. I really don't have any idea. I'm just curious as you and Jennie."
"But was Rheanne weird these days?" Leila asks and Max shakes his head.
"Hmm no. She was just stressed and sick. But we still talk normally and we even laugh at times. She was okay."
The five of them can only sigh. And at Max's peripheral version, he noticed Rheanne who is now sitting up. He immediately stood up and went inside Rheanne's room.
"Max..." Rheanne calls out for Max and hugs him.
The four followed Max and just watched the two by the door. They all looked relieved seeing Rheanne fine and smiles. After a few seconds, Max and Rheanne break away from the hug.
"A-are you okay?" June asks, all of them were looking at Rheanne in worrisome.
Rheanne smiles as she replies, "Yes, I'm fine."
"Hold on, I'll get you some water," Max says as he exited the bedroom leaving the four with Rheanne.
"We were worried sick. Stacey even almost fought with Jasper just to come here, but he told her to stay in the penthouse." Jane says.
Rheanne's weak smile was still evident in her face as she says, "I'm really fine. Tell her not to worry."
"But what really happened, Rhei?" Leila asked.
Rheanne looks down, then looks at Leila, "I-I don't really want to talk about it. I actually don't know what happened as well. But can we not talk about this for now?"
The way Rheanne asked it was so sweet and kind and Leila can only smile and nod at her. At least the more important thing is that she is okay.

"YOU TWO, can you stop fighting? You two just made up." Howard said as he and Alexander look at Stacey and Jasper who were face to face and could probably have a war.
"Hey, you two. Don't be immature in these kinds of situations. Stacey, I get that you are worried. We are all too. And Jasper, I get that you're worried for Stacey. We're all just worried for each other and we barely have an idea of what's happening, but you can't just fight right now." Alexander says.
Jasper and Stacey could only sigh heavily as the two of them sit down, but also had space in between. After a few minutes of waiting, they all heard the doorbell rang and Howard volunteers to get the door.
Howard opens the door and there were Gina and Rena standing. "O-oh, Gina, Rena! C-come in!"
The two ladies gladly walk in as Howard closes the door behind them. The arrival of the two made Jasper and Stacey stand up. The moment they entered the penthouse, they immediately felt it. And their facial expression says a lot.
"Why? Is something wrong?" Alexander asks while Howard offers a glass of water but the two decline.
"You felt it too?" Rena asks Gina but it feels like the question was for everyone. Gina didn't answer though but just motioned Jasper if she can walk around in which he allowed her.
Gina starts walking around and follows where the strange feeling is stronger. Everyone just watched where she was going, but when she got near to Jasper's bedroom they all now followed her. Gina asks Jasper if it was okay and he nods. And slowly, Gina pushes the door open and there she felt it.
A sudden sight appeared in her mind. It was a series of sights. It feels like the sight was from another point of view, but what she was seeing from this sight is darkness and lonesome. Gina immediately feels the pain of what she was seeing and this all made her weaken and fell down to the floor.
"Gina!" Everyone exclaimed her name.
"Help me carry her."
Indeed, Jasper and Alexander help Gina up as Howard assists while Rena and Stacey prepare the sofa for Gina to lay on. It took a few minutes for Gina to recover from this before finally sitting up. Howard brings out a glass of water for Gina, in which this time she gladly drinks from it.
She sighs before starting to speak, "I will not beat around the bush. You all are feeling some strange feeling in here especially in Jasper's bedroom, and Irene and I felt it too."
"T-then what is that 'strange feeling', 'strange energy' or whatever, gina?" Stacey starts to ask questions.
"Honestly I don't know," gina answers, "I have no idea what is this strange energy or where is it coming from. I don't know why we're all feeling this either. I can't really give you any details because I myself don't know much about it too. I may be an expert and as well as a singer, but I have no more knowledge of this. And if you're also going to ask if this has any relations to what just happened to Rheanne, I don't know as well."
Gina's answer made everyone disappointed and upset since they didn't get to have a really good answer for them to understand what was happening.
It felt like they were in this big maze and they thought it's already the end, but it was actually just a dead-end and they have to go through more obstacles and paths than they thought.
"But there's one thing I am certain of," Gina says and everyone waits for what she has to say next,
"The strange energy we're all feeling right now
is not evil."
