Constantly surrounded by people for the past several months, you just wanted a moment of peace. You had sneaked out, wanting to get some coffee to enjoy in the park when it was ruined by the press getting word of your whereabouts.
"IS IT TRUE?! HAVE YOUR PARENTS BEEN USING YOU FOR YOUR MONEY?"
"HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO KEEP SUPPORTING YOUR PARENTS?"
"DO YOU EVEN SEE ANY OF THE MONEY YOU EARN?"
"WHY HAVEN'T YOU MADE A COMMENT ABOUT THE LAWSUIT?"
"YOUR PARENTS HAVE PUBLICLY APOLOGIZED. ARE YOU GOING TO RESPOND?"
You've never asked for any of this. You just wanted to write songs and perform them to your fans but your parents took advantage of your dream. They supported you, paid for dance and signing lessons, took you to auditions, and made sure you weren't alone while you chased your dreams. You just never expected for them to practically leave you penniless when you turned 18 and realized that they had spent the majority of your money. You kept your mouth shut about it to not raise suspicions until you had enough money to pay a lawyer to help you deal with what your parents had done. You expected deals to be renegotiated to exclude them from any earnings and at least have them pay back some of the money they had stolen from you.
You had been in the middle of promoting your latest comeback when world got news of the lawsuit. Since several months ago, you had never been left alone.
"I just need to get through."
You trying to push your way past the cameras but none of them would budge. All you could do was shield your eyes and ignore the questions they would throw at you as you tried to get your manager on the phone.
"THAT'S ENOUGH!"
With the help of their bodyguards, Yeji and the rest of the girls make their way through the crowd to get to you. Yeji wraps her arm around your shoulder and leads you away from the press. The girls follow after her also making sure that if any of the press got through the guards, they would act as another barrier between you and the cameras.

Through the gates and inside the dorm, all of you let out a sigh of relief after what had just happened.
"I apologize for making you deal with my mess. It wasn't supposed to be like this. I just wanted to...."
Yeji gives you a smile before pulling you into a hug.
"We get it. You just wanted some alone time. We've all been through that. Until they figure out how to get you out, why don't you stay over? You can stay in one of our rooms to get some sleep."
"I don't want to trouble you any further."
"We insist. We wouldn't want for our favorite artist to be harassed again. Come on. I'll take you to my room."
