"I have to stop being a streamer," Hobin said as a helmet blasted into his face.
"That's bullshit," Taehoon said. "Are you going to flee after reeling me in?" He said. Rumi was standing next to him smiling.
"What if we could turn the table on them?" Both of them stated
"Would you then be able to stand up and fight as you always have?" Rumi asked.
"We can turn the tables on them?!"
"How are we gonna do that?"
"You can take her in now, [ ]" Rumi rang, [ ] entered the room, followed by Minjeong.
"That's" Gaeul exclaimed "Oh my word!"
"Someone I have never seen before!"
--------------------------
"I need everyone's attention" Snapper placed several files on the table.
"Oh wow, what's all that?" Hobin asked
"It's all info on the rough and ready channel" Snapper answered
"You found all of that?" [ ] inquired, opening one of the files and beginning to scan through it. "Good god, you're good at this Snapper" She cooed
"Thanks" Snapper scratched his nose cockily.
"They're brothers?" [ ] exclaimed catching their attention
"They are?!" Gaeul looked over at the file.
"We can't call them out" Snapper spoke
"What?"
"I will fill you in. The older one is Jisu Ju and he's nineteen"
"The younger brother is Hyeoksu Ju, he is eighteen" Snapper explained "They used to be losers, and were bullied starting from middle school to high school"
"There was no reason why they were bullied but if I had to come up with a reason...I'd say it was because of Jisu's personality"
"And that's how he started learning Jiu-Jitsu"
"You're saying that he became this skilled when that's the reason he started?!" Gaeul exclaimed in disbelief
"He had talent, he became a purple belt in just two years" Snapper said
"He's a prodigy!" Gaeul spoke
"It takes at least three to four years to get the purple belt" [ ] added while looking through the files. "But it's not completely impossible" She said
"Anyway, he's a prodigy who became a purple belt in two years. So of course he got his revenge" Snapper continued "That's how he became the hero of his school"
"He went viral as soon as he became a youtuber and that was the begining of Rough and Ready channel"
"There's nothing we can call them out for, he doesn't seem awful" [ ] said, Hobin sighed disappointingly
"I think I might know why!" Rumi exclaimed "Seongjun undoubtedly knows something about Jisu and is taking advantage of it, just like he did with Yeonwoo!"
"So that's why we can't call him out! Because he's a good person!" Gaeul added on.
"That's not it" Snapper shook his head "The real reason we can't call them out, is because they've been called out before"
"They have?" [ ] lift up her head
"The two of them already got called out once before and apologized for it" Snapper crossed his arms
"What did they get called out for?" She inquired, and what followed surprised her
"Jisu raped a girl from his Jiu Jitsu dojo and blamed the girl for making him do it"
[ ]'s pupils dilated as she clenched her hand around one of the files she was holding. Murderously narrowed her eyes. The other could sense her rage increasing gradually..
"The thing that's even more surprising is despite the fact that his crime was well documented online." Snapper continued "He's still a popular streamer"
"How can those scumbags continue making videos after what he did?" Mangi shouted angrily.
"Something happened. That one incident made everyone change their minds about them" Snapper went through the pile of papers then pulled out a document,
"You've probably heard it before" Snapper handed [ ] a piece of paper, she took it and began to read
"The Dave murder case?" She muttered, narrowing her eyebrows.
"Dave murdered a girl he was tutoring in a really gruesome way which shock the media" Snapper explained "It was the day Dave was being led to the scene of the crime so the police could continue their investigation"
"The area was crowded with people, loads of youtubers were getting worked up over it. But the viewers weren't happy because their anger was fake"
"It was at that moment, Jisu appeared at the scene and took down Dave in front of many people. Jisu put Dave into serious pain, pleasing the public" Snapper told
"After that loads of people admired him"
"Seriously?" [ ] frowned
"So...What happened to Jisu's victim?" She asked, soften her eyes
"She's still battling the aftermath of that alone. She hasn't been able to do Jiu Jitsu because of how traumatic it was" Snapper frowned
"I want to handle this" [ ] suddenly said, making the room stunned
"A-Are you sure, [ ]?" Hobin asked.
"Yes, I'm sure."
---------------------------
"Are you Eun-Ji? The victim of sexual assault?" [ ] asked the girl in front of her.
"Yep, that's me" Eun-Ji smiled "You're Wang Li [ ]?"
"You know me?"
"Yes, I'm your fan. I watched every of your matches, you're my inspiration actually" She smile, grabbing both of [ ]'s hands
"I can't believe you're here, in front of me" Water began to collect at the bottom lid of her eyes, Eun-Ji's lips trembled slightly.
Eun-Ji stepped forwards and embraced her, [ ] returned the hug and patted the sobbing girl gently.
"I'm glad that you accepted my offer and trust me to share your story" [ ] smiled while sitting next to Eun-Ji.
The brunette gave her a small smile. "Thanks for helping me out, [ ]"
"Eun-Ji, always remember. It wasn't your fault, okay?" [ ] said, looking into the girl's eyes. "You're very brave"
"What do you need the most right now? How can I help?" She asked the brunette. Eun-Ji inhaled deeply before answering
"I want to do Jiu Jitsu again." She said "Can you help me?"
"Of course"
The two girls stood in the middle of the dojo.
Suddenly, Eun-Ji felt like she was having a heart attack. Her breathing was labored and her palms felt sweating.
She felt it would burst her heart. She couldn't think anything, only that her chest might get crushed any minute and her heart might burst open.
"Eun-Ji!" [ ] went beside the girl, letting Eun-Ji gripped on her shirt. "We can do this another time if you want." [ ] said softly "Do you need anything?"
"N-No, just give me a minute" Eun-Ji trembled
[ ] sat beside the girl patiently.
"Eun-Ji, make a fist", she told the girl.
She saw her do as told, though shakily. Good, the girl was listening at least.
"Now breathe in", she performed an inward motion with her hands. "And out," she breathed out with Eun-Ji.
Eventually, Eun-Ji was able to calm down. The two sat quietly next to each other before, Eun-Ji began to break the silent
"Um...Do you mind if I ask a few questions?" She asked
"Of course"
"Have you ever taken any anti-depression pills?" Eun-Ji asked
"I have, not only that I also have to taken a lot of medical pills as well"
"May I ask why?"
"I went through a hard time, watching my family member die in front of me, bullies. Also...sexual assault" She said "And I got Amnesia"
"That's horrible, I'm sorry- I didn't know"
"It's alright, we both have experience horrible events in our life" She smiled, ressuring the girl
"But, we will be fine. I'm sure" [ ] added
"How did you go through all of that?"
"Oh, I have my family and friends, loved ones that always care for me and have my back. Especially him." She told me, "He has always been there for me."
"Is it Taehoon Seong? The ex-Taekwondo athlete. It's all over the social media" Eun-Ji smirked, nudging [ ]'s arm playfully
"You might have guess it" [ ] chuckled
"Wow, that is so sweet"
"I think i'm ready now." Eun-Ji said determently, standing up with [ ]. "Will you be my opponent?"
"Sure" [ ] smiled, getting into position "I have never fought against a Jiu Jitsu fighter before"
"I'm honored to be your first one!" Eun-Ji smiled

"Dad?" Taehoon spoke up as he was having dinner with his father.
"Yes? What's wrong?"
"You know how to speak Chinese, right?" He asked, the man nodded
"Yes, why?"
"[ ] said something to me the other day but she won't tell me what it means" Taehoon explain, Mr Hansoo listened carefully with curiosity
"I think it was " Taehoon then tried his best to pronounce the words"
"You mean. 我爱你?"
"Yeah, that. What does that mean?"
Mr Hansoo suddenly burst out laughing at his son, causing the male to look at his father dumbfounded
"Dad, what is it?!"
"Oh Taehoon, I can't believe you're so innocent and clueless" The man wiped away his tears before leaving the dining room leaving Taehoon sitting there, confused.
"God damn it! Just tell me what it means!"
