"ALRIGHT BITCHES" chaewon enterd the door like a drama queen and caught the attention of the members, but flinched after seeing eunbi glaring at her. "bitches and uh... eunbi unnie."

the girls went o_O and silence hovered until wonyoung slams the door shut.

"YUJIN IS IN DANGER!"

"YUJIN IS WHAT NOW"

"OH NO"

"WHAT DO WE DO"

"I THOUGHT YALL ALREADY HAD A PLAN"

"WE WERE ABOUT TO MAKE ONE BUT THEN CHAEWON ENTERED LIKE A FUCKING I DONT KNOW FBI MAYBE"

"OH SO YOU'RE BLAMING ME NOW?"

"MAYBE NOT FOR ENTERING BUT FOR STARTING THIS RUCKUS AND NOW YUJIN IS IN GREAT DANGER AS YOU SAID"

"HEY, I REGRETTED THOSE ALREADY"

"BUT YOUR HURTFUL WORDS WERE ALREADY SCARRED ON YUJIN'S HEART"

"OH SO YOU'RE FUCKING JOINING NOW, JO YURI? SHUT YOUR MOUTH UP, YOU'RE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS NONSENSICAL ARGUEMENT."

"YOU DARE TO CALL IT NONSENSICAL YET YOU STILL BOTHER TO ANSWER BACK? FUCKING SMART OF YOU. AND DONT YOU EVEN TRY TO TELL YURI TO SHUT HER MOUTH UP OR ELSE—"

"OR ELSE WHAT? INSULT ME? FISTFIGHT ME? MAKE YOUR MOVE DUCKHEAD"

"OH SQUARE UP—"

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!"

silence.

eunbi sighed before glaring at everyone. "can you please stop fighting? we've been through a lot today. we got into a fight, got suspended, and now our member is in danger."

"fighting wont solve shit" chaeyeon muttered, leaning on the couch before shaking her head. "i honestly dont get why you're still fighting."

"we need to be a team," eunbi stood up. "and save yujin from her—"

"drig addict murderer illegal gambler and social climber stepmom's husband." wonyoung simply cuts off. "you're welcome, now can we start planning?"

eunbi nodded. "right."

_____________

"guys, i kinda have a bad feeling about this..." minju whispered, her eyes fixed on the specific house they're targetting to.

"just chill out, min. im sure they can do it." chaewon mumbled, pointing at the two very familiar girls making their way to the back part of the house.

"im sure chaeyeon unnie can do it, she's light as feather," minju half heartedly sighed before looking at the duck-like person who was following chaeyeon. "but yena unnie? im not really sure about her."

sakura chuckled. "i agree, but we need to trust yena, she's the most athletic bitch in our team"

"i dont think the bitch word was necessary..." yuri mumbled from behind, but the van was too silent for them to hear her.

"okay, yena's girlfriend." hitomi mocks, earning an eye roll from yuri. "shut up, munchkin looking pumpkin"

"why you—" hitomi was so close to bitch slapping yuri but nako was able to grab her arm and calm her down. "hey, it's okay. you're the cutest munchkin looking pumpkin in the universe"

hitomi simply puffed her cheeks that made them go uwu— anyways, eunbi was nervously biting her lips as she watched hyewon from far away looking like she's arguing with yena, while chaeyeon who looked done as fuck grabbed her phone from her pocket and dialed god knows what.

at the same time, sakura's phone started ringing and it was clearly chaeyeon. "how's it going?"

"not very well."

"why, is there something wrong?" sakura questioned, seeing that the three disappeared from their sight. "where are you guys?"

"we're currently at the back part of their house, yena's tried her best to climb on the window but ended up falling, anyways i wanna go home, they're fighting."

"we're doing this for yujin, chae. tell them to stop." sakura replied.

"i already did— well shit"

the members curiously and worriedly looked at sakura's phone after hearing chaeyeon's curse. "what happened?"

"so uh, yena climbed again, but this time it was a success. and the window isnt locked."

"that's great!"

"no..."

"why not? i mean, it would be easier for yena to open the main door, grab yujin and come to the van without being spotted by yujin's bitch excuse of a step father."

"but that's the problem."

"what?"

"the window we're about to enter is the window in the man's room."

in an instant, the members in the van got their jaws dropped as they worriedly gazed on the house. "well, fuck. that is indeed the problem."

"we dont know what to do at this point— what? okay."

"hey big ears, this is yena. pass this phone to eunbi unnie or valak will visit you at 3 am—"

"shut the fuck up" sakura cuts off, but gave the phone to eunbi. "a bitch wants to talk to you"

"unnie?"

"hey, yena. what's the matter?"

"i am not a science person but i read from my science notebook that matter contains of three types; solid, liquid, and gas—"

"do you want me to cut your oxygen?"

"—i dont think it's possible but you succeeded on scaring me. anyways, i kinda have a plan."

"this better not be stupid." nako mumbled, sighing.

"hey, i heard that, tinkerbell!"

"dont call me tinkerbell you pumped balloon inflatable duck."

"well ouch!"

"judt go straight forward to the plan!" wonyoung whines. "wasting our time would lead to nothing, we need to get yujin as soon as possible!"

"okay, okay!"

"so here's plan B..."

_____________

wonyoung took a deep breath before glancing at the person beside her. "unnie, are you ready?"

"for yujin, yeah." chaewon replies, pursing her lips as wonyoung nodded.

not wasting any second, wonyoung hardly knocks on the main door. "here goes nothing."

it took two more minutes until wonyoung decides to knock again, but this time in a louder way. "he must be asleep."

"it's 1 am, of course he is." chaewon muttered. "i couldve been asleep right now."

"wait, i can hear footsteps."

wonyoung was right, because as soon as they stopped talking, the door opened, revealing a familiar man in its 40s, looking tired and sleepy. "what is it?"

"g-good evening, sir." chaewon stuttered, looking pale out of nervousness. "w-we are v-very sorry to uhh... disturb y-your sleep but—"

"my name is jang wonyoung," wonyoung cuts her off before pointing at her. "and this is kim chaewon."

uninterested and confused, the man raised an eyebrow. "what makes the two of you come here and disturb my sleep?"

chaewon's expression then changed into a poker face before clicking her tongue.

"we are looking for a missing person."

wonyoung didnt expect chaewon to be straightforward as the plan was to take time for yena, chaeyeon, and hyewon do their move on getting yujin from her room.

even more confused, the man groaned. "do i look like a fucking criminal to you? pathetic people wasting my time instead of sleeping."

"i woildnt exactly say that but you look like you're hiding something based on your poor choice of words." chaewon hissed.

"are you suspecting me!?" he rebuts, taking a step forward from the door that automatically made the both step backwards.

"listen up, kids. you wouldnt want to mess with me, or else i'll do the same to you... in bed."

chaewon's expression changed into a disgusted one, while wonyoung looked confused. phew.

"excuse me!?" chaewon, without thinking much, took a step forward. "you, mister, are a very perverted person to say that to a stranger. it's giving us more confidence that you are responsible to the missing person we are looking for!"

the man smirks, and much to the girls' surprise, he grabbed chaewon's collar. "you are one brave wh0re, arent you? you seem to be pretty wild in bed—"

"pervert!" chaewon pushed him in a strong way, causing him to stumble, while wonyoung grabbed chaewon. "unnie, stop!"

"why you—"

"d-dont you dare h-hurt them!"

the man looks behind, chaewon and wonyoung peeked inside, only to see yujin, being held by hyewon and yena, with chaeyeon from behind.

"how!? who are you people and how did you get inside here!?" he freaks out at the sight of the girls with yujin. "THIS IS TRESPASSING!"

"we are yujin's bestfriends, you irrelevant dickhead!" yena angrily spat. "and we came here to save her from her ugly ass step father!"

"AHN YUJIN, GO BACK TO YOUR ROOM THIS INSTANT OR I'LL—"

"beat her up like what you did to her a while ago!?"

wonyoung's jaw dropped as she got a clearer view of yujin's face. it was indeed full of bruise, and her left eye was barely open. she looked weak and tired. all in one fucking day.

"i will kill all of you!" the man shouts, ready to fight when chaeyeon kicked his stomach before he could get a hold of yujin.

"i will kill all of you" hyewon mocks. "you're lucky we're not gonna report you to the police, fucktard."

"let's go!" chaeyeon announced as they helped yujin in walking.

______________

"quick, open the door!" alarmed, the girls started rising from their seats as the nearest member in the door opened it, making wonyoung and chaewon enter as they helped yujin go up the van. "careful..."

"yujin!!" eunbi stood up, guiding a tired yujin to her seat before scanning her face. "shit, we need to go to the hospital!"

"n-no, dont..." yujin whispers, breathing heavily before closing her eyes. "i h-hate it there"

"ahn yujin, we are going to the fucking hospital." eunbi sternly decides. "can you tell me what happened?"

"i think we shouldnt force her, unnie." minju mumbled.

"minju's right, she might be traumatized on what happened to her." yuri addes.

eunbi nodded before holding yujin's hand tightly. "you're going to be okay, hmm? you're still pretty."

yujin was definitely not okay. besides her bruised face, the left side of her forehead was bleeding and wonyoung immediately gave her handkerchief for the blood to be wiped.

the members looked genuinely worried on their way to the hospital, while yena tole them about what happened and how they were able to get yujin by her plan on letting the man go outside for them to enter on his room and get yujin. also the way they roasted him and recorded every single word he said, the perverted words he used.

"that fucking hag, i'll make sure he'll pay for what he did to my child" eunbi hissed, before squinting.

"atleast yujin's okay now." sakura mumbled before pursing her lips.

indeed, with them being with yujin 24/7, they'll make sure yujin will be safe with them, and that they will protect each other at all costs.

____________

it was 4 am when yujin woke up from the mild operation, which was to stitch up her open wounds and clean her bruises. it still stings but nothing hurts more than the insults he had said to her.

a worthless talentless kid who lacked attention.

yujin wasnt the strongest woman in earth, she experienced diefferent level of insults, from her mother, relatives, and to her members.

it just stings as time went by.

"yujin, you're awake now..." yujin carefully moved her head to see wonyoung beside her.

what's surprising was that it wasnt only wonyoung, the members were sleeping on the couch, they didnt fit so the other members were on the floor, their heads resting on the table. they looked really tired, especially yena who was snoring.

"h-hey, wonnie..." yujin smiled. "thank you for s-saving me."

wonyoung held yujin's hand before sighing. "i am more than glad that you're okay now, yujinnie."

"and i am more than glad that you're the first one i saw when i woke up from a nightmare."

cheesy, as they say, but wonyoung couldnt help but chuckle upon yujin's fluttering lines. "the doctors said you need to rest for three weeks."

"three weeks?" yujin groaned. "but our performance is on the 24th, which is approximately 2 weeks away."

"that's what we were worrying about too," wonyoung replied, sighing. "and the fact that we are still unsure with some of our songs is a problem."

"i thought we're gonna perform la vie en rose and the song yuri composed?" yujin roll called. "and also the unit stage?"

"that's right. but eunbi unnie's planning to make an excuse letter for the twelve of us to be hands on for 2 weeks before the performance night." wonyoung stated. "and we are very worried about you, your left leg is mildly sprained but the doctors said it might get worse if you move too much."

yujin smiles. "you dont have to worry about me, i can still dance but i wont move around to much."

wonyoung nods. "and... about you and chaewon unnie—"

yujin sighed. she suddenly remembered every single word chaewon have said to her, it pained her a lot, a bit too much.

"i will distance myself." yujin spoke. "i hope you and the members understand."
