It was a Friday night. I was performing on stage with my band.

"Come on Sujin! We can't keep waiting,"

"I'm coming," I said to my bandmate as I followed her.

I got my equipment set up and got out the drum set.

"Ok, guys we are on in three," our manager said.

"Oh ok," I said.

Soon the curtains opened and the music played.

I took a deep breath and started to play the drums.

My name is Park Sujin.

I am the average young adult you see every so often.

I am one of the five members of a band. It is just really a side gig.

I work at Sephora as well. Well, that doesn't matter anyway.

My life is Boeing, nothing special about it.

It wasn't always like this...

As we stole the show, I saw a familiar figure walk through the doors.

Yang Jeongin?

I lost focus and messed up the beat. Shit. I can't mess up today, I've already been cut half on my pay.

I noticed that he was walking in with a girl. Who was she?

He and the girl waved at me and he kissed her cheek.

I gave a forced smile. Inside, I was jealous. I had so many questions.

Focus, you're on stage.

In frustration, I started to hit the drums harder and let it all out through the music.

My bandmates looked at me in confusion but I don't stop.

After the performance, I walked up to Jeongin and the girl.

"Hello," I said slightly bowing.

"Hey Sujin, long time no see," Jeongin said.

For a little bit of context, Jeongin is my childhood best friend.

Well, I don't know about that anymore. He moved away with his family to another city years ago and we never kept in touch.

"Yea," I said.

"Oh this is my girlfriend Rei," Jeonign said as he introduced her.

"Nice to meet you!" I said reaching my hand out.

I guess not then.

By her appearance, she looks full of herself.

"So-"

"Baby! I'm tired can we go now?" Rei asked.

Jeongin sighed and said, "Sorry Sujin I'll text you later. Come on Rei,"

"Oh ok bye," I said waving.

Well, that was quick.

Jeongins parents always would nag him asking him when is he going to find a girlfriend.

I could tell that this was a forced relationship. But I won't jinx it.

But why did he come back anyway?

Hope y'all like this so far 🫶🫶😭😫😌😃
