Jamais Vu

Chapter 39

2 days later.

"Everyone, at the living room now," called Namjoon as they reached their dorm from the dance studio.

Their concert was just around the corner and they practised hard, making sure there was no room for mistakes. Their fans would be travelling from around the world to see them perform and they deserve the best. They went through it countless times and some of them nearly threw up after their vigorous routine.

"What is it about, Namjoon-ah?" asked Jin, taking a seat next to him.

"Can't it wait til tomorrow?" yawned Yoongi. "This is the only day we get off work early."

"No, it can't," said Namjoon firmly.

"Anyone wants a beer?" shouted Jimin from the kitchen.

"I want one, Jimin," said Jin. "Do you want any, Yoongi?"

"No. I just want this to end quickly," said Yoongi. "Jungkook-ah, what are you doing there? Hurry up, sit here."

"I'm hungry. I'm making cup ramyeon," said Jungkook.

"Make it quick, Namjoon. We're all tired," said Hoseok pinching the bridge of his nose.

"Everyone's here," said Taehyung as Jungkook finally joined in with his food. "What's it about, hyung?"

"Everyone has been stressed out lately and we nearly had a big fight at the dance studio today. Some of you were unhappy with what happened and I don't want that to fester. If there's anything that you're angry about or not satisfied with anyone here, spill now."

"Or forever hold your peace," added Jin.

"I'm serious, Jin hyung," said Namjoon.

"I'm serious too. So let me be the first one to go," Jin sat straight. "I know I'm not the quickest to catch up when there's any change in choreography but can you please at least give me some room to get it right?" he directed that to Hoseok.

"I saw that you were playing around with the moves. I snapped," admitted Hoseok.

"Jin hyung wasn't playing around. I was nearby when you shouted at him. He was really learning the steps," defended Jimin.

"What do you think, Jimin?" asked Namjoon.

"I was just a bystander. I get it that you want everything to be perfect, but being too strict all the time will not help anything," Jimin directed to Hoseok.

"I second that," Yoongi agreed.

"I'm sorry, Jin hyung," apologised Hoseok. "I thought you were goofing around."

"I wasn't," said Jin.

"We have been working together for so long to know that something else was eating you up, Hope-ah. It's affecting your work and you're taking it out on every one of us," said Namjoon.

"I'm sorry to say this, hyung, but you are being overly critical of minor mistakes. The mistakes I made weren't intentional," said Taehyung to Hoseok. "We are doing our best and it gets frustrating."

"Is everyone singling out on me right now?" Hoseok was getting irritated as he eyed at all the faces in the room.

"What's bothering you?" asked Namjoon.

"I'm just doing my job, and that's what everyone should do too," said Hoseok.

"Ya! Are you telling us that we're not doing ours?" Jin's voice went up.

"Stop it Jin-hyung, Hoseok. This was what happened just now, both of you nearly got into a fight," said Namjoon. "We're all professionals when it comes to our job and that remark is uncalled for, Hoseok."
