Cameras are all directed at her. She tries her best to cover her pale tired face with a hoodie jacket but the media has already seen the messy state she's in. After all, she's the talk of the whole internet.
As she tried to hurriedly walk, a male reporter bravely shoved the mic to her, "Ylane, was it true that you rose to the top through indecent means?" Her mouth agapes but no words escape.
Her silence with her trembling expression.. This made the reporters glanced at each other meaningfully. "It must be true." A petite woman whispers to another.
More reporters join in the crowd and shoved more mics just so they can hear her statements. Ylane managed to run away, with her manager taking the initiative to guard her, spreading his arms wide open.
'Thank you.'
She continued to run until she hid in a dark alley. She frustratingly grabs her hair and sat on the cold concrete floor. It seems it would be the end of the world for her.
Just then, a tall hooded figure comes across her and approached Ylane.
"Are you alright?" Tears roll down her cheeks. She's clearly not fine, the man shouldn't have asked. Good thing though that the man had brought heat packs with him, so he shared some to Ylane.
Ylane was touched by the man's kindness, not expecting that someone would help her during her tough times. The man sat beside her and hugged his knees as well. "Harsh reality, isn't it?" She didn't say a word but she nodded in agreement.
"I-It was the CEO's dirty plan. He tricked me into becoming his mistress but I turned him down and now he spreaded fake rumors about me."
"Do you have proof that he did it?" The man asks. Though mildly confused, Ylane answers, "Yes, I recorded our conversation but I don't think it would do any good at this state."
The man stands up and stretches his right hand towards Ylane. "I am Cain Roberts, a certified lawyer, and I think I can help you with that, Miss Ylane Cruz. You're lucky that I happened to meet you."
Ylane feels hopeful with his statement. She grabs his hand and lets him helped her stand up. She sniffs and wipes her tears, "Th-Thank you, Cain."
It wasn't the end of the world for her after all.

This was inspired by real
events. It greatly saddens
me how the media/ppl view
idols/actors. They worship
them and bash them at the
same time. :(((
