THE BET || {ENHYPEN FF}

~11~

Sunghoon's p.o.v. :-

It was the day of my performance. This performance was THE figure skating performance held between 10 schools this year. For the last 23 years, every year 1 representative from each school was selected to represent their schools in figure skating. I've only won the gold medal once, which was 3 years ago....I need to win this year.

I was lost in my thoughts and that's when I heard a notification from my phone. It was Mirae.

Hearing that, I took off my skates and rushed out of the rink with my bag. 

She was standing there wearing a blue knee-length dress with her hair down which made her look like the most beautiful girl.

A smile crept on my face when her gaze met mine.

"You need energy before a big performance, let's go!" She said with a warm smile on her face.

"Alright, where do you wanna go?" I asked and looked here and there thinking.

"Hmm...there's a nice noodles store around the corner. Should we go there?" She asked after a while of thinking and I agreed.

"Woah! This looks good!" I said looking at the bowl noodles on the table.

"I know~ This tastes even better." She said picking up her chopsticks. And it did taste amazing.

"By the way, how do you know about this place? Your house isn't near the area either." I asked as we were eating.

"Me, my dad and Heeseung used to come here every week after school." 

"You don't come here now?" I asked with curiosity.

"No, after my dad passed away, I haven't come here in a while." I felt very guilty after asking that because I wanted this moment to be a happy one for her.

"I'm sorry."

"It's not a big deal, really."

"How long has it been?"

"It's been 2 years, and I'm in the process of healing, trust me it's alot better....Let's not talk about all the gloomy stuff." She said. I knew she needed someone to hear her out and comfort her but I could also see she didn't want any of it now.

"Okay, what do you wanna talk about?"

"You. It's a very special day." My heart skipped a beat.

"What about me?"

"You have your competition at 7:15 pm...what are your plans after winning? Any party or something?" She said with a giggle. Honestly, I didn't think I would win until now. She believed in me and that was my goal now. To make her, my parents, my friends, my school, and myself the proudest.
