It has been a week since the incident at that party. Of course, nothing goes unnoticed when rich people get into drama - people seem to love sticking up their nose on everyone's business that way. 

Thank god she wasn't as famous as any celebrity; after all, she's just a company owner of a famous bakeshop business franchise, and as she always says, it's the brand that's famous, not her. 

A knock came from the other side of her apartment unit, She wasn't in her other home where her parents were living with her, as she would rather have silence than have her parents hover over her like the worrywarts they are. 

She peeked through the peephole before opening the door to greet Hina. "Gods, thank you for coming," Y/n greeted her with a hug, which Hina returned. 

"Come on, let's sit and just have snacks," Hina smiled gently. 

Y/n mirrored her smile. "Yes, let's."

A loud bang echoed in the coffee shop as Y/n dropped her head on the table. Hina, on the other hand, sweat-dropped. 

"It's not that bad...? Only... three or five views..." Hina tried to comfort, key word; tried. 

"Yeah, million," Y/n added, her voice muffled as she remained slumped on the table. 

"Ah..." Hina paused for a while before she sighed. "Trust me, it wasn't that bad. Plus, people liked it-" She stopped to show Y/n some comments on the video post. "Look, they're calling you badass for standing up for yourself." 

"I'm not worried about that, it's about the reviews those other people are posting." Y/n took the phone from Hina and typed something before showing the phone back to Hina. "They're calling me a violent, spoiled brat." 

"Spoiled brat my ass, you were the reason your parents have money," Hina frowned at the comments. 

Y/n sighed. "That's not the point here... It's just that... why am I viewed as the bad person in this?"

"Y/n, look, this thing will fly by in a month or so. People are like that - One viral video over another, plus, the truth always comes up to the surface," Hina shrugged. "The ending will be him being thrown aside, you still living your life, running your company." 

Y/n sat up, her shoulders still tense but not as much as before. Hina spoke again. "You know what, we should go somewhere fun, maybe go on a vacation, or you know, that double date I've been talking about." 

Y/n's thoughts immediately went to Haruchiyo. 

"Oh? I know that look. You thought of someone, didn't you?" Hina smiled widely. "Who is it-?!" 

She pursed her lips. "Well, uh... I don't know if he would want to go..." 

Hina just gave her a knowing look as she sipped her drink.
