Main Vocal's Obsession

Part III

GRACIELLE ANNALIESE JUAREZ HENDERSON

I’m finally here at SM Town after so many instructions Themary taught to me a never ending instructions which she stated and I went stunned to speak on how even a young girl knows all of this instead of me. I’ve met several personnel too who got me papers or passes before I get to arrive here.

I walked to the revolving door of this building and patiently wait in the line of employees I guess. I was holding an ID that serves as my entrance ticket that I got from one of the people I met. I was getting nervous since my turn is about to come, what if the ID is fake and they’ll drag me right away thinking I’m an obsessed fan to any artists here trying to break in. I was so preoccupied that I almost didn’t see that it was already my turn. The only answer to this agony is to do it fearlessly now, and so I finally put out my held ID and nervously punched it to the detector something and I almost lost my breath but went back to life when the machine finally beeped once signaling that I did it, that my ID is accepted and so I did not waste any time and proceeded to where I should go.

I let out the map I got from someone I met earlier which I used to locate the store they have here. I finally know where I should go and so I started walking and suddenly walked past a big LED where a song is being played and a bunch of good-looking man are the ones singing it, they are maybe one of the artist being managed by this place. I forwarded to the store I was looking for. Just I was about to enter the store and while holding the handle of the glass door I felt a stare, an examining eye from my rear view which sent chills to my system. Scared as I was, I hurriedly went in ignoring it since I’m in public, I wouldn’t be in danger right?

I found the album Themary has been asking for and so I walked to the counter to pay for it when the cover picture caught my attention. These are the boys who were in the LED ad., so that was their song. Before I finally went out of the store I suddenly froze thinking maybe the disturbing eyes are still there. I summoned all my courage to held out the door then finally step outside, I roam my eyes around just to check but to my luck there's none to suspect so I walk peacefully through the exit.

Its Monday and I’m almost ready to go and head out to work when Themary’s call registered my phone, I was excited to accept it but it turns out to be a bad news for me as for now.

“unnie, good morning, I’m sorry I hope you had a great morning, can I uhh.. can I ruin it just a bit? hehe”oh no I have a bad feeling about this tone of her talking, and I was right, after she continued “unnie I’m sorry but the event got rescheduled to earlier date and its today, but don’t worry unnie I searched for it its seriously in your neighbourhood so its not gonna be a hassle to drive your way there, unnie pleeeeeeese!” that’s it I’m doomed. I could imagine myself going there right now when all I thought was I'd be busy with my work today.

“But Themary its Monday, I have work, I’m sure there's still another event same as that, I can go to the next one instead” I told her soflt but I only heard sigh from the other line and I felt guilt hearing that.

“umm.. actually yes there still same event like that unnie.. but that would be the next album release which is I don’t know when, as to what year, month, because these love of mine are a little ghosters, and they took too long to comeback” I feel the sadness in her words and guilt struck me.

Nervous as I was, I still went to the event. I couldn’t let my girl down, I could just call my workmate later that I couldn’t come to work today.

I stepped out and went to my car after bidding my goodbye to my parents, I did not have time to change and this casual dress I use to wear at work is what I’m wearing to that event. I’m not the fan here so I think I do not need to doll up myself that much, I have my cap in my car, maybe I could wear it later when I step out.

After reaching the event place I step out of the car with the album in my left hand and phone at my right hand. I gradually call my sister to distract my nervousness which I don’t know why I was feeling that. I found a space to stand but to my surprise they are all standing and lining up signaling that the signing is about to start. I went to the last girl standing in line and decided to be the last person, it felt embarassing to attend since I’m in my work attire.

After n years it was nearly my turn now, and suddenly I felt that weird feeling of somebody's stare again, I hurriedly ended up the call with Themary after letting her know that its nearly my turn now and to try to calm my self when that feeling of somebody’s stare hit me again. I got more nervous knowing that my decision to be the last fan was very wrong because I’d be left there upstage and the whole crowd would see me from their seats. One last girl was in front of me and I was there torn between running away or just let this be done now or never, but the damn stare from someone is keeping me nervous.

After I went up from the stage a staff guided me me to head to the first member who’ll sign in the album, I nodded and looked up to the member on the very left he was talking about and sw that he was still talking to a fan. The fan in front of him move to the next member and that’s when I got to see the face of the first member to sign, and suddenly I lost my breath, eyes wide open and lips are bit open when I recognized the man I was looking right now.

A tap from my back brought me back to life and gestured to have my walk towards the man whose intently staring at me also. I had no choice but to go up and walk towards him or I’d cause a commotion and headline saying a fan just run away after an EXO member’s stare scares her to death. Gosh, Themary, just what the hell you made me do!
