Hyejin comforted her for a few minutes, her other members was about to rush in but Yeji stopped them saying it was better if we don't crowd her just yet and leave some space for her

As her crying was a bit better she handed her a handkerchief y/n gave her when they were little "Thanks" she managed to get out "I don't wanna push you, you can say no, but what happened in the past" Hyejin asked "Yeah i feel comfortable saying this to you" Ryujin took a deep breath "It all happened when we debuted and we were done shooting for mnet at that time" Ryujin began taking in a deep breath "We were sent back to tour Changing room, i was falling behind a bit cause i wanna take my boots off, it's giving me blisters after the performance" Ryujin then started to talk her heart out with Hyejin

[Flashback]

"Aishhh..." Ryujin groaned, taking off her boots and setting them aside, she looked around and saw that her members were already way up in front "Ahhh wait.." She tried to stand up but her blisters were killing her "Need any help" A voice asked behind her seeing her struggle

She looked behind and saw presumably one of the staff there "Ahh.." She was hesitant at first but seeing that her members and managers were already far gone and probably couldn't hear her she had no choice "Yes, i need to get to my group mates" Ryujin finally said to the staff member and they gladly accepted, The staff grabbed her boot while ryujin slinged one of her arms around the staff shoulders and they carefully walked, when they arrived the staff explained the situation to Ryujin's manager while Ryujin was getting treated

After that encounter they slowly grow close to each other meeting and laughing freely with each other, to Ryujin it felt refreshing for her to meet new friends, Her trainee days she would always focus on improving while the exception of her survival show where she has to interact with the other members

but outside of work never, Ryujin felt herself grew comfortable to the staff, "Jihoon" that was the staff name Ryujin called them Hoon, ther friendship grew normal like every best friend at school would do, but later things got weird, really weird

as time fly by Jihoon started to ask for things, but at the time she didn't really mind it, she thought that she just wanted to return the favour to them, but as ITZY's and Ryujin's popularity grew the more expensive the things get, from a sign album that they could sell for a large amount of money, to electronics, fashion, and luxury jewel's

She didn't tell her members because they didn't want them to worry about her and she just confront jihoon about it later, but that 'later' never came

Day after day passed by of Ryujin spending her money on jihoon, but she couldn't say no to them, she's too attached to them. Later after a photoshoot Yeji noticed that Ryujin has been down lately and not her usual self around them, when asked she just say that she's fine and changed the subject, One time when Ryujin went out on her off days, Yeji who felt suspicious of Ryujin asked her manager if she could follow where Ryujin is going

Her manager and Yeji followed Ryujin until the vehicle Ryujin used stopped at a nearby mall, no matter how good Ryujin is at keeping her identity a secret Yeji still noticed her, years of being Roomates helped with that

She went inside the mall while Yeji asked her manager to stay if they needed to get away quick, Yeji followed her inside the mall and it seems like Ryujin was meeting a person
