song jiyeon almost wanted the ground to swallow her as her brother dropped fifteen letters in her desk— her earlier works now forgotten with how much yelling the usually serene house of the song's.

❝song jiyeon, what is the meaning of this?❞

❝idol agencies!❞

the oldest song child buried her face to her palms as her younger siblings started to read the letters that was for her to read, out loud. jiyeon cursed her younger sister, hyemin in her mind when she suddenly squealed— causing more ruckus and more song family members to come in her grand–looking room.

❝whoa, yeon! you should definitely accept these offers! especially jyp's!❞

❝please get out of my room.❞

the song calmly collected the letters and ushered her siblings out of the room, sighing when all of the ruckus were gone. she leaned against the door, staring up towards her ceiling in consideration. unknowingly, her gaze went towards the papers scattered around her once neat desk.

it wasn't like she wasn't grateful to have such big companies personally sending offers to her, but it was just she hated being a musician— being an idol would be the same. her mindset was already settled to that after finding out just how good she was at music.

but wouldn't it be new to her? sure, musical and being a kpop idol is probably the same but wouldn't she be able to get rid of her hatred towards the talent she didn't wanted and learn to love it like what everyone wanted her to do? jiyeon heaved a deep breath and picked the letters that fell to the ground.

in the middle of tidying the mess her family made, she was suddenly called downstairs. ❝jiyeon! your friends are here to visit you!❞ the song blinked and placed the now organized letters beside her laptop, approaching the door after she made herself look presentable.

❝who is it?❞ the eldest song child questioned softly, descending the stairs. the music prodigy paused at her tracks when she saw familiar figures. ❝ah, lily and haewon. it's nice to see you again, what brings you here?❞ said duo looked at the figure of their friend and jumped up from their seats to race over the still calm and collected song.

❝yoojin sent us a few messages about the offers you got! we're in a break so we went here!❞ lily excitedly stated whilst haewon nodded, smiling at her same age friend. jiyeon chuckled and gestured for the two to take a sit. ❝oh well, i had a feeling you would drop by any moment.❞

haewon dropped herself on the soft and comfortable couch of the song's, sighing in satisfaction at the feeling. ❝anyway, will you accept any invitation at all? i know just how much you hate being a musician.❞ the two year trainee stared intently at the musician who shrugged her shoulders dismissively. ❝i'm taking it into a consideration.❞

the oldest one out of the trio smiled widely. ❝if you accept jyp's offer, we'll be in touch more often!❞ humming, the song stood up to grab some beverages and treats for her guests. ❝it's not like i don't want to, but the fact that the both of you are having a hard time yet somehow strive through the harsh training is something that i don't think i can do.❞

oh haewon playfully rolled her eyes at how the eldest of the song siblings is overlooking things. ❝you have us, song idiot. we can help you through the whole process and until we debut together.❞ jiyeon's slender hands that was reaching for beverages stopped and she turned to look at the duo.

❝that sounds tempting, i'll think about it.❞ lily chuckled and placed pats on the oh's shoulders when it lowered in defeat. ❝you're so stubborn, jjyeon.❞ haewon huffed, earning a small chortle from the said girl. ❝i know, won. anyways, have some of these. mother taught me a new recipe today and we haven't tasted it yet.❞

the song approached them once again and placed two slices of cakes in front of the trainee duo, their usual selected beverages accompanying the treat. ❝tell me how it tastes.❞ she gingerly added, intertwining her fingers and crossed her legs— awaiting for their critics.

her fellow australian grabbed the fork with the same excited manner and immediately tasted the desert. ❝it's good, as always!❞ the pure korean nodded her head in complete agreement, glad that she was able to eat something sweet rather than the diet foods they forced themselves to eat.

❝that's a relief..❞ the youngest out of the three gave a smile and leaned her back against the soft cushion of their couch. ❝well then, did you really come here because of just about the offers?❞ lily dropped her fork down gently.

❝there's no use to hide something to you, huh?❞ oh haewon watched with interest as the two converse in their native languages with a fork shoved in her mouth. ❝of course, there's no use of hiding something from me.❞ jiyeon countered, smiling calmly.

❝people from the company have been forcing us to try and get you to join the company ever since your last visit. apparently, a lot of them has watched your plays and wants to witness it live.❞ the song felt herself wince at the thought of the days where she was still into musicals. painful memories, indeed.

❝ah, so i was right.❞ she muttered and turned to the duo, mainly lily because haewon was still busy with her treat. ❝that's out of your control, isn't it? i'll consider it.❞

the song's gaze went outside the window, now noticing just how dark it was. ❝it's the evening already? are you guys staying here? if you are staying, i'll get someone to tidy the guest rooms?❞ the two jyp trainees followed her gaze and promptly shook their head. jiyeon frowned at the thought of the two girls going out and the danger they might be in.

❝but it's dangerous outside, especially at night.❞ haewon let out a small laugh at how worried the younger sounded. ❝stop laughing at me, won. just stay here for the night or i'll just personally see you guys off.❞ lily waved her hand dismissively.

❝that would endanger the three of us, then.❞

❝i'll drive.❞

playfully rolling their eyes at the caring yet insistent behaviour of their friend, the two girls were left no choice but to agree with the song's offer.
