You and the girls are going to be appearing on one of your favorite interviewing channels, and have all been excited for it. It would be your first interview after the release of your comeback, UNFORGIVEN. You've heard great things about the host and the show.
You and your members bowed and waved to both the host and the live crowd as you entered the set. You all took a seat on the couches situated across from the interviewer, Lee Jowon.
Jowon was standing, bowing towards you all as well, before sitting back in his seat once you did.
Once you were all seated, he smiled. "Hello. I'm Lee Jowon! Thank you for coming here today, it's an honor!" He exclaimed.
We all agreed and returned the compliment.
Almost ten minutes later, there were five minutes left until the interview ended.
Jowon, let a serious expression paint his face as he faced you. You specifically. "Yoonah-ssi... we heard that something traumatic recently happened in your life. Would you care to share? Fans are probably dying to know!"
You froze in your seat. Did he really just ask you that? That was a moment in your life that you worked so hard to move on from, and you and the girls had all agreed to not bring it up if there was no need to. Why did this man think he had the right to ask you about something so personal? He even called the event "traumatic," and what the hell is the only thing going through your brain.
"Aye!" Chaewon hissed. "How could you ask such a question? That's personal information, information that you don't need to know," she spit. There was definite venom behind her words as she held your hand tightly in her own. You squeezed her hand.
You felt panic overwhelm you when, even after Chaewon's warning, Jowon continued to press and look at you with a demanding gaze. You felt your body begin to tremble, and, eventually, it all became to much.
You abruptly jumped out of your seat and ran off of the set, heading down a random hall as tears spilled from your eyes. You came to a stop and slid down the wall, running your hands down your face. Warm tears were rapidly rolling down your cheeks. You struggled to breathe properly. It felt as if there was a lump in your throat, and someone or something was suffocating you. Squeezing your heart as well. You began to tug at your hair, feeling overwhelmed and in distress.
You were so deep in your meltdown that you didn't even register the hurried footsteps approaching you, nor the presence beside you, until you were brought into someone's arms.
Through your tears and clumped lashes, you peered up at Yunjin. Kazuha was next to her, and the both of them were eyeing you with worry, upon seeing your state.
Yunjin knew you were having a panic attack so she held you as tightly as she possibly could, while Kazuha brushed your hair away from your face.
Kazuha cupped your cheeks. Your breathing was still heavy. "Yoogomi. Yoogomi, look at me." You looked into her eyes, trying to take a deep breath. "There we go," she cooed. "I see you're already taking a deep breath, so keep doing that. You've got this. We're with you, and you're safe with us, right?" You nodded. "Good. Good. Just focus on Yunjin-unnie and I, and breathe."
You did as she said, and although it took a few excruciatingly long minutes, you eventually were able to take a stable deep breath, no longer feeling as if you were going to die.
You exhaled softly, leaning more into Yunjin's embrace. You felt her place a gentle kiss to the top of your head, and you opened you eyes to see Kazuha lean forward to place several kisses all over your face after wiping your tears.
"Gob job, baby girl," Yunjin murmured. "You did it." Kazuha nodded along to the older's words, a warm smile plastered on her lips.
You closed your eyes and felt a smile tugging on your lips as well. "I did it. Thank you, Unnies."
"Now, let's go whoop Lee Jowon's ass for causing our baby to-"
