The Show Must Go On

"Stop singing! You're voice is so annoying!"

Moonbin just made a face and kept on singing. I glared at him while he's dancing like a monkey. We rented a videoke room for the two of us since the other 98 liners can't come even umji.

"come on, Eunbi! This was called a videoke to sing your heart out not just to sit there, like a grumpy grandma." he said while the mic was on his mouth.

I rolled my eyes at him and grab the other mic on the table. I pressed the numbers so I could sing my chosen song next.

"I have another one, before you you sing." he announced and pointed at the TV.

The Other Guy

"you know what? The plot twist of my life just happened." he said while holding the mic. His shoulders fell down and turned at me.

"I like someone but she's someone's someone. Get that?" he asked.

I rolled my eyes. "No, just sing." I pretended not to understand what he just said.

He responded a sad smile at me making me guilty. I'm so mean towards him.

The music started so he's back was now facing me.

She said, I never thought I'd see you here
Hanging on this side of town
What's it been, about a year
Yeah, boy, look at you now
I heard you got a new job
Things are takin' off
Just like I thought they would
I said it's all good

My fingers started tapping on my lap while staring at his back.

But you should see the other guy that's missing you
Late at night, he's wishin' you would come back home
Girl, he can't move on
And his heart still takes a beatin'
Just livin' with your leavin'
Yeah, it might look like I'm doin' alright
But you should see the other guy

I stopped tapping my fingers when the lyrics shrunk in my head. Is it true? That he like someone's someone? 

That sucks.

As far as anyone can see
Things are lookin' up these days
Only let 'em see this side of me
The one that's got it made
Doin' everything I know to do
To keep the truth
From runnin' through my mind
Yeah, I'm doin' fine

He looked down that made my forehead creased. He wiped something on his other cheek then looked up again.

Is he crying?

But you should see the other guy that's missing you
Late at night, he's wishin' you would come back home
Girl, he can't move on
And his heart still takes a beatin'
Just livin' with your leavin'
Yeah, it might look like I'm doin' alright
But you should see the other guy

Am I right? He's not looking at me, so I can't see. But he's voice was a bit shaky, still, he kept on singing.

But you should see the other guy that's missing you
Late at night, he's wishin' you would come back home
Girl, he can't move on
And his heart still takes a beatin'
Just livin' with your leavin'
Yeah, it might look like I'm doin' alright
Yeah, it might look like I'm doin' alright
But you should see the other guy

I never seen him this hurt. What's wrong with him? He never cried in front of me? That's how much he like that girl?

I looked up and the creased on my forehead faded when I saw him turned, looking at me. His eyes were a bit reddish, an evidence the he really cried.
