A Rose Between Thorns

Chapter 77: Stressed Out

It wasn't too far of a walk, but I came home to a very unhappy Jin. Apparently Hoseok had told him I walked home, so the eldest decided to scold me about how dangerous it was for me like that.

Well it's not like I have bright pink fucking hair, so I didn't stick out at all nor was I recognized on my way. I ended up pushing past the elder member, still overflowing with rage from earlier as I made my way to Jimin's room.

A nice long shower managed to calm me down a bit, but what Hobi suggested hurt me more than I thought. The accusation is based on the possibility of her ability evolving, that's not even solid proof to suspect my best friend. She would never do that kind of thing.

Since I got home earlier than I expected, I decided to sit in the living room and scroll through some of the comments of our recent appearances. I make myself comfortable on the couch, the rest of the boys either out with work or in their rooms doing whatever.

I search up our first performance in Africa, since I hadn't actually seen the video myself.

I could already see the weight I had gained while on stage. Not enough to be fat, but I did look a lot better than I used to. Most of it went to my thighs, though some of it went to my stomach as well. I did notice that I can hardly see my ribs anymore, before then they were more prevalent.

I'm not the only one who noticed either.

Anyone else see how much weight Jangmi gained?

She was so pretty before, she doesn't need that weight

She's so fat now, she really needs to go on a diet

-Didn't the boys say she's already on one?

--Clearly it isn't working, look at her legs

I let out a sigh as I continue to scroll, seeing many, MANY hate comments in the vast list of fans.

Jangmi looks like a stripper on those silks

She should cover her skin, she's showing too much

A leotard? Is she nuts?

White is SO not her color, I'll just skip the intro and go straight into the performances.

All you toxic fans need to stop, so what if she gains weight?

-If she's gaining weight and on a diet, then she must not be practicing dance at all

--Wow, really? That's so lazy of her

---What do you expect from an American?

You know, I got really excited to see the performance until I heard that Jangmi was doing the introduction.

-She should just stick to being a visual, her voice hurts my ears

--Agreed, she needs more vocal training

---No amount of vocal training could fix that garbage

I can feel my heart begin to sink as I continue down the rabbit hole that is the comment sections. I know I shouldn't be looking at them, but I want to know what the fans think of me. I allow my curiosity to get the better of me as I continue to look through the comments.

It's painfully obvious that she has no previous experience in dancing.

Why do they even call her rose, she looks more like a weed to me. There is no amount of plastic surgery that could fix that face.

She's just a wannabe idol, I don't get why she's such a big deal. Her voice sounds like a goat being fucked in the ass-

Jangmi only got in from being their soulmate, not from any actual talent.
