Riku walked down the street as people started to decrease one by one. She glanced at the phone to see that it was almost midnight. Riku had been walking for almost 5 hours now. She sat down at a small bench and tried to call someone. At this point, she only remembered one number.

It was her mother's number.

Remembering what her birth giver did to her, she was heartbroken.She's still sad at the fact she was thrown out of the house for not even doing anything wrong. She dialed in the number and gave it a shot. It rang for a few seconds before she heard that sweet voice that used to care for her.

"Hello ?"

"Hi mom... I- um need your help-"

Before she could continue, she heard that short beep. Her eyes widened as she saw that the mother had hung up the phone. Her tears started streaming down her face, not knowing what to do. Her legs were worn out and she couldn't walk anymore. She looked behind her to see a small stall that sold a few canned drinks.

Riku sighed and tried standing up. She almost fell but she caught herself in time. She walked over to the stall and chose a pink peach soda drink and paid for it. She walked a little further and sat down under a cherry blossom tree.

Petals were falling one by one. The scenery was beautiful. She casually took sips of her drink as she thought of what to do next. She wanted to search for a motel or something but her legs were too weak.

Tiny droplets of water started pouring.

Now she regrets it. She shouldn't have run away. At least with the guys, she should have a roof over her head and now it was raining. She smiled as she cried. The rain started to pour heavier, making her slowly drench in the rain as she finished her drink.

.

"Heeseung, I'm telling you she's somewhere around here !"

Jake said looking at his phone intensely. After the bullshit that happened, all of them stopped the shooting and took seperate cars to find Riku. Two in each car to be exact. It was chaotic. They were all calling each other while trying to track her location throughout the staff's phone. But since Riku rarely turned on the phone, they kept losing her until Ni-ki and Sunoo caught her.

"GUYS SUNOO AND I FOUND HER !!"

"Quick !! it's raining !!"

"The others get back to the hotel, the staff must be worried by now."

Ni-Ki asked the driver to stop the car as he saw a familiar person sitting under a tree.

"STOP ! STOP THE CAR !"

The car didn't even stop properly when Ni-Ki had already opened the car door. He jumped out of the car while Sunoo stayed inside.

"RIKU ?! RIKU WAKE UP !!"

Riku was holding the can of drink softly with the bag on her lap. She was losing consciousness after sitting in the rain for almost 20 minutes now. Ni-Ki had no choice so he just carried Riku and rushed back into the car. He was now also soaking wet but not as much Riku.

Sunoo had already had a towel in his hands and started drying Riku as much as he could while the driver started driving the car again. Riku could see glimpses of light and murmurs around her but she just closed her eyes.

Sunoo took off his hoodie and placed it on Riku.

"Here, take my sweater !"

The driver said, tossing his sweater to the back seat.

"Thank you ! Please hurry !"

The driver nodded while Ni-Ki took off his jacket so he wouldn't catch a cold. He took the sweater and wore it to keep himself warm too. Sunoo laid one of the chairs back and laid Riku there, covering her with a blanket.

"Excuse me can you turn off the AC ?"

The driver did as he was told.

"We're almost there, hang on."

They had to handle the situation quick as Sunoo could feel Riku's body heat up. He took out his phone and quickly dialed one of the members.

"We need two people downstairs at standby to help Riku out the car, we're too weak right now. We need help"

"On it."

.

The driver parked the car and went out while helping Ni-ki in the hotel with an umbrella. Sunoo helped holding an umbrella over Sunghoon who was carrying Riku into the hotel. They quickly gathered in Heeseung and Ni-Ki's room and started to help Riku.

Riku felt warmth as she opened her eyes slightly.

"Riku ! Can you hear me ?"

Sunghoon said after laying her down on one of the beds. Sunghoon sat her up slightly and helped her drink from a water bottle.

"Sunghoon, catch !"

Jungwon said, passing a damp towel to Sunghoon. He laid her down once more and tucked her in under the covers. They had called their manager in the room to help Riku change her clothes. The others helped Riku into the bathroom while they waited outside.

They finally calmed down but their anger and frustrations were still held in.

"It's all because of that fucking staff member !! She wouldn't have run because of him-"

"She wouldn't. The guy pressured her too. It's not her fault."

.

Riku was lying down while Jay was feeding her small grapes as they were back in their room. She kept muttering small 'sorry's as she ate with tears slightly pouting down her chubby cheeks.

"After this, sleep. We'll talk about this in the morning. You don't have to be worried about anything. I promise nothing bad is going to happen."

Riku nodded shakily while cuddling up with a blanket. Jay stood up and got a small sheep plushie he borrowed from Sunoo to give to her as a way of comfort. Riku took it as Jay placed the bolster back in the middle of the bed. He played on his phone while he waited for Riku to fall asleep first.
