           Yeoreum sat in her car, staring at the apartment building before her. She honestly had no idea how to handle the situation she was in. What was she supposed to say to Solmi? "Hey sorry I was respecting the wishes of my new friends, you can keep on sulking though cause nothings gonna change, I'm not a sellout."

That didn't feel very... tactful.

But it was the truth in it's most blunt state. After her initial tongue-lashing from Renjun, she and the boys had come to an agreement that if she knew anyone who was a fan of theirs, they couldn't know about her being friends with them. It wasn't about them thinking they were too good to talk to people, but more about wanting privacy. (Lets be real though, it was mostly Renjun's request since he was still distrustful of Yeoreum and didn't want anymore strangers barging into their lives).

With one final mental push, she slipped out of her car and made her way into the building, deciding to take the stairs instead of the elevator. Yeoreum told herself it was for exercise, and definitely not a stalling tactic.

And yet, all too soon Yeoreum reached her floor and found herself standing in front of the door to her apartment. She mentally cursed. That was the fastest walk up those stairs she ever had.

Slowly, she drew out her keys and unlocked the door, pushing it open with a creak. Stepping into the apartment, she could already see Solmi in the living room sitting on the couch. Even as Yeoreum made her way further into the apartment, tossing her keys onto the kitchen counter, Solmi didn't move an inch. It was obvious she was trying to ignore the fact that Yeoreum had walked him.

Mentally going over the things she wanted to say to her roommate, Yeoreum shuffled over to the living room, where she stood only a few feet away from the sofa where the other girl sat. It was silent except for the sounds of their breathing. After a moment, Yeoreum finally opened her mouth to say something when she was suddenly cut off by Solmi herself.

"Shinae talked to me yesterday after you shut yourself in your room."

Yeoreum snapped her mouth shut, but quirked her head at Solmi, who was still staring at her phone. She was not sure why she was bringing up Shinae out of the blue— but she wasn't about to question her.

"I uh..." Solmi turned off her phone screen and gulped. Her head moved slightly in Yeoreum's direction, but she still refused to look at her. She continued. "I might have overreacted a little yesterday when I found out you became friends with 7Dream" she recited, but Yeoreum could see the clench in her jaw. Obviously she wasn't sorry for it.

"But I really have to ask," finally, Solmi turned to Yeoreum directly, holding eye contact. "Why didn't you tell me? I mean, I've been a fan of them since they were at 30k followers. It just seems selfish that you would keep that to yourself."
