"Eonnie, I promise I won't be long. In two hours I'll be home already."

I sighed at Hikaru's insistence on going out to buy something for her computer. "Can't you just buy it online?"

"I told you, I don't want to because I have to see for myself if it fits with my equipment.~"

"I have to go out in a few minutes. I can't stop worrying if I don't go with you during this time."

"Eonnie, please.~ I have to stream again later. I need to buy it now."

"You don't understand, Hikaru. The media's eyes are on you guys right now because it has only been two days since Ting helped us take that article down. Yeseo has her manager with her that's why I can rest a bit easy. You on the other hand is planning to go to a mall alone." I said seriously.

"I do, I get it. I have to be careful. But we both know that this is inevitable. We can't just go incognito because of one scandal. This isn't even a scandal— just some hot scoop because apparently, people find it interesting that their number one idol has relations to mortals like us. Anyway, we can't do anything about the opinion of the general public so easily, that's why we should focus on what we are doing. And for my case, it's to stream how I build my floating base on Minecraft."

I wavered a bit. Hikaru's passion and professionalism when it comes to streaming has always made me admire her. She tries to put it lightly but I know that she's amazing at her craft.

"This concerns your safety. To hell with duties as long as I know you're safe." I stayed determined.

"Eonnie, pleaseeee.~"

After going back and forth a few more times, Chaehyun arrived and simply watched us. Probably feeling impatient, she proposed a compromise for us.

"Okay, stop! Yujin eonnie, I know you just want to keep Hikaru safe but you also know how this kid can be so stubborn. If you keep stopping her, there's high chance that she'll just secretly go out. And you Hikaru, you have to understand that your sister's just concerned for you. So let me ask you, do you really have to buy that thing you need right now?"

"Yes!" Came her eager reply which made me roll my eyes.

"Okay, then you have to accept whatever Yujin eonnie's conditions are when you go out later." Hikaru nodded her head at me excitedly.

I raised an eyebrow at Chaehyun's words. "Tell her what she needs to do just so you can ease your worries when we leave."

I sighed, knowing that it was better like this because Hikaru would just go out— in one way or another.

"... Fine." I conceded. "If you don't accept even just one of my conditions, I'm locking you inside this house if I need to."

Hikaru grumbled but accepted.

"First, make sure you're all covered up when you leave. Second, we'll drive you there now, but I need you to give me a name that can pick you up after—"

"I can just use—"

I glared at her. "Don't even think about using any kind of public transportation."

"But Yeseo's out on a schedule, Hiyyih went back home, and Youngeun is busy with her upcoming tournament!"

"Not my problem. Also, even if you were going to suggest them and they were free, I won't accept 'cause all of you can't drive yet."

"Ti—"

"Don't even mention your Ting eonnie because her and Mashiro are busy because of this incident."
