"SO, THAT was what happened," Garam said, finishing his long story while taking the last spoonful of his chocolate ice cream. "The company cut the budget for my solo debut. From a full-length album, it's just going to be an EP. Plus, they're pushing the song I like least as a double title track. I'm sad that the other songs I composed won't be included in the EP, but I'm just grateful that 'Siren' remains the title track."
One of the double title tracks, to be precise.
But, in my heart, my EP has only one title track.
"Thank you for sharing your troubles with me, Garam-ah," Song Sihyuk said while wiping the smudge of ice cream off the corner of his mouth with his thumb. Then he licked the smudge off his own finger. "And I'm sorry."
"For what, Hyung?"
"I shouldn't have given the shareholders more power than they deserve."
Oh, no.
Garam suddenly felt embarrassed.
I probably sounded like I wanted Sihyuk Hyung to do something about my problem.
