Chapter Text
“How the fuck did you get up there?” Keeho asked.
You laughed as you looked over the edge of the platform you were standing on. “I have no idea.”
“How do you have no idea?” He asked skeptically.
“Jumping.”
He sighed loudly and you laughed.
The notification for a donation rang in your headset. You turned to your second monitor to read the name.
“Thank you…”
Your eyes widened, stunned by the number that you were looking at.
“Cat?”
“Oh my god.”
“What?”
“They sent me thirteen million won.”
Keeho choked on his drink. “Ack-- what the fuck?”
“Um… hold on.”
You messaged your mod.
y/n: Quack
QuackIsWhack: I see it
QuackIsWhack: What do you want me to do?
y/n: I don’t feel okay keeping that
QuackIsWhack: Yeah, that was kind of weird
QuackIsWhack: I didn’t even have a limit SET for donations, that’s how out of pocket that was
y/n: I want to refund it
QuackIsWhack: I’ll do it right now
y/n: Is it weird if I ask you to do a background search on the user who sent it?
QuackIsWhack: Sure I can, but why?
“Um… so thank you for the kind gesture, the person who sent me that money. I don’t want you to think that I’m ungrateful, but I’m not really comfortable with taking so much. I’m going to refund it.”
Keeho: You’re not keeping it??
Keeho: That’s like, SO MUCH rent
y/n: I know, but it's just like…
y/n: Idk, it feels weird
y/n: Like, why would you give someone *that* much money?
y/n: Someone you don’t even know
y/n: It was a username I’ve never seen before, too
y/n: I feel like they want something? I don’t know
Keeho: Are you sure?
y/n: Well, the comment they left with it was weird…
Keeho: What was it?
y/n: “Meet you at the café ;)”
Keeho: …What?
Keeho: Like……..
Keeho: The one you used to work at?
y/n: I DON’T KNOW
y/n: BUT I’M CREEPED OUT
Keeho: No, that’s totally understandable
Keeho: You should give it back
y/n: I am
y/n: And I asked my mod to look into them
Keeho: That’s good
Keeho: Let me know what they find?
y/n: Yeah, I will
You and Keeho went back to your game. An hour or so later you both ended your streams and your phone lit up with another message from Quack.
QuackIsWhack: So uh
QuackIsWhack: It was a guy that sent it to you
QuackIsWhack: And he had a picture of a café storefront on his social media
y/n: Oh god
QuackIsWhack: ??
y/n: Please send it
y/n: I need to see
QuackIsWhack: [sends pic]
y/n: OH GOD
y/n: OHFUCKNONONO
y/n: THAT’S THE ONE I USED TO WORK AT
QuackIsWhack: HOLY SHIT
QuackIsWhack: I’ll see what I can do about getting him banned
y/n: Thank you
y/n: I’m shaking
y/n: Like my hands are fuckign shaking
QuackIsWhack: Did you talk to Keeho about it at all?
y/n: Keeho
y/n: It was my café
Keeho: What?
y/n: The donator
y/n: He had a picture of the café I used to work at
y/n: Like the storefront
Keeho: Holy shit
y/n: I want to move
y/n: I’ve been wanting to move
y/n: I think I should move
y/n: I should just move
Keeho: Move to Seoul
Keeho: You can be here with me
y/n: Keeho, you’re a fucking idol
y/n: We wouldn’t even be able to see each other without you getting into a dating scandal
y/n: And I’m a faceless streamer, people can’t find out what I look like
Keeho: Okay, yeah
Keeho: But you’re like my little sister
Keeho: I’d feel safer if you were closer
y/n: Ugh…
y/n: I have been thinking about Seoul…
Keeho: I can at least find you a place with a doorman, so you can have a little bit of security
y/n: Yeah… that’d be nice
Keeho: And my group has some clout, I’d be able to sic the cops on whoever bothers you
Keeho: If we stream together AND are in the same city
y/n: *SIGH*
y/n: You know that “pbbfbfbfbff!” noise that horses make?
y/n: That’s how I feel right now.
Keeho: Ha
Keeho: Should I look for a place for you?
y/n: Yeah
y/n: I’ll like
y/n: Look into getting a moving van
y/n: UGH now I have to pack everything
y/n: I have so much stuff
Keeho: Well that sounds like a you problem
y/n: UGH
Keeho: I have a few free days coming up soon
Keeho: I can come back home and help you pack then
y/n: This is all going to be so *expensive*
y/n: And thank you :/
Keeho: What’s the “:/” for?
y/n: It’s just that
y/n: I just want to play games
y/n: I don’t want to have people finding out where I live and giving me a ton of money and letting me know they know my personal life
y/n: Like people have asked why I don’t do a face reveal and like… if people are like this when they DON’T know what I look like…..
y/n: ???
y/n: You know?
Keeho: I know
Keeho: I’ve been an idol for four years and we’ve already had like
Keeho: Two instances where people tried to sneak hidden cameras into our dorm in plushies in the first year alone
Keeho: We can’t accept gifts anymore because of it
Keeho: Saesangs just hang out outside our dorm all the time so we have to sneak around
Keeho: One of them tried to get a job at the company, but they keep an eye on social media so they had already been blacklisted
Keeho: Still threw a fit at the receptionist though
y/n: Jesus christ, poor Mina
Keeho: Mhm
y/n: One, why don’t the fucking cops do anything, they are LITERALLY outside your dorm, harassing you
y/n: Two, regardless, people need to stop
y/n: Like
y/n: Take that energy
y/n: Clean up a beach
y/n: Volunteer at an animal shelter
y/n: Volunteer at a homeless shelter
y/n: Tutor some kids
y/n: Paint a picture
Keeho: Lol
y/n: Make the world better, is what I’m saying
Keeho: I get you
Keeho: That’s what I think every time I get a saesang call
y/n: UGH
Keeho: Just go do something else
Keeho: None of us even like you, so this shit is pointless
y/n: For real
y/n: Okay, I have to go start organizing shit. I’ll call you when I’m ready to pack
Keeho: Call me if you need any other help, okay?
y/n: Yeah, I will
