The Lost Treasure - Ateez

They Both Not Want To Leave

Yeosang held the violin in his hand, that would have almost broken if it hadn't been for Hongjoong stopping the clash between him and Yunho and he began to play according to the book of notes that was resting in front of him. 

He closed his eyes and let the music soak some calm in him although the main thing that made him calm down was not playing. Yeosang loved to dance to the tune rather than play the music itself, he did not aspire to be a musician. It was more of his father's dream than of Yeosang himself. What he did have was a strange hobby in addition to the fact that he loved to dance in his free time, he liked to disassemble and reassemble electrical things. 

He recalled that Hongjoong had seen what he had done one of the days he was in the warehouse, and Yeosang blushed with shame. He removed those disassembled parts that belonged to an old PlayStation remote that he found by chance in the area and he slit his throat towards Hongjoong. He was sure that his friend would see it as something strange, but the first thing Hongjoong asked him was if he could put the remote back on. When Yeosang showed him how he was able to put the remote control back together, Hongjoong was impressed.

"Wow! You have talent!" he said enthusiastically and Yeosang grinned from embarrassment.

"Yeosang" the voice of the teacher, Yeon Ran, took him out of the memory he had. He stopped playing and looked at the students who stared at him. He swallowed his saliva and blinked several times at the teacher. He noticed that the other students were looking at him as well.

"Wow" he heard Sanha's friends behind him and raised one eyebrow.

"Dismissed. Accept from you, Yeosang. I would like to talk with you privately" the teacher said calmly. Yeosang tightened his lips while putting the violin into his bag and tried to think why the teacher wanted to talk with him. What has he already done? He was in the class symphony, wasn't he? Or not because he let his thoughts make him lose concentration, so it turned out that some of the notes he played were not correct? Yeosang approached Yeon Ran, who arranged her brown hair. She smiled a gentle smile at him as she leaned against her desk.

"You are very talented, Yeosang" she began to say after the two of them remained in the class. Yeosang bowed and looked at her.

"I know I'm not supposed to say that but you're a few levels above the students here" she continued to say as Yeosang blushed slightly.

"Th..thanks" he said weakly and a little smirk came out of her mouth.

"Today you also proved it. The fact that you played a melody by yourself surprised us all!" she said in astonishment. Yeosang looked at her with a question.

"What?" he asked in a small voice.

"When you were in your own world, you started playing something completely different from a melody that we hadn't heard yet. There was something sad but happy about her at the same time. It was beautiful!" she said proudly. Yeosang didn't know what she was talking about, he was sure he was playing what they practiced for a few weeks in class. He didn't know he was playing something completely different! Was he so much in a world of his own in class? Yeon Ran went over to the pile of papers resting on her desk and brought him a thick envelope.

"Huh?" Yeosang opened his mouth, still not believing the words of his teacher.

"It's a scholarship form for an advanced music school," she began to say. Yeosang gaped his mouth straight and shook his head negatively.

"No I don't think I'm ready-" he began to say, but the teacher interrupted him.

"I've already spoken to your parents before and they think differently. I'm sure that with talent like yours you can be a high-level musician" she smiled happily and Yeosang's mouth became dry. He bowed to the teacher again and just stared long at the envelope she had given him.
