Dream (Taehyung FF) - ON HOLD

Chapter 10

My eyes are half open. Shit, when will the practise be over? I'm so damn sleepy.

"Y/n??"

I jump out when I feel a weight on my shoulder.

It is Jihyo, and she looks startled by my reaction.

"Wh-what's wrong?" asks Jihyo.

"Oh, sorry. "I'm just... I'm just... sorry," I say, and I scratch my neck as I feel so embarrassed.

"No, don't. You look so unwell, y/n. What happens?" asks Jihyo.

"Unwell?"

"Yeah, what happens?"

I press my lips together. I'm not sure what she's saying.

"Are you sick?" Jihyo inquires.

I shake my head. "No. I probably just need to freshen up," I say as I rush out of the practise room to the restroom.

I wash my face and gently slap my face a few times.

It helps a little bit, but still, I'm so sleepy.

I close the tap and stare at the sink for a while.

I couldn't sleep last night because I had been thinking about Sunhee and Eunah. They know my secret. I have a gut feeling that one day I will not be able to fulfil what they want, and they will expose my secret.

That surely will happen, but I won't care if it is exposed after my debut. I only need to get through this until my debut.

I pinch my eyes close. God, please grant me strength. I want to make my debut so much. I don't want to fail in front of my family. That shit will be so damn embarrassing. and I can't even imagine that.

I take a deep breath and let it all out at once.

I want to try to act like usual. I shouldn't let those heavy thoughts bother me.I should not be distracted.

I feel better, so I go back to the practise room.

When I see Sunhee and Eunah, my energy instantly vanishes.

I really hate them so much. and only God knows how much I hate them.

When their eyes meet mine, I quickly avert my gaze.

I can't stand seeing them, so I go get my water bottle to get it refilled outside.

"Y/n," Sunhee calls me.

I stop and turn toward her.

"Where are you going?" she asks.

"Uh, to refill the water. Why?"

"Well, can you please refill mine too?" she asks.

"Mine too, y/n!" Eunah says.

My eyes flicker. They still don't stop.

They notice the sadness on my face.

"Oh, what's wrong, y/n? You don't want to do it?" asks Sunhee.

"Why don't you just go do it by yourself? It's literally just in front of our practise room," I say.

"Why don't you just help us since you already want to go?" asks Sunhee.

I let out a heavy breath, then I throw my head down. I'm so done with her.

"What?" Sunhee is so uneasy with me.

I lift my head and look straight into her eyes. "Let's talk outside," I say.

Sunhee is confused, then she looks at Eunah.

I shift my gaze to Eunah, my gaze meeting hers squarely."You too," I say, and then I walk out of the practise room.
