Fated to be with you | Park Jay | Enhypen [𝙾𝙽𝙶𝙾𝙸𝙽𝙶]

Jay's POV :

Finally.
We all did our last step.

"You did a great job today, everyone ." Our dance mentor said.
We all had a round of applause in our dance practice room.

We're due to only 1 month for our recent comeback.

These days, life has just been going on and on.
The same routine, the same burden of the unfinished works, shoots - everyday.

Finally, We're done for today.

We've been practicing, preparing, practicing and practicing more since 6 am.

I glanced at the the watch on the wall. A sigh came out of me unannounced.
Literally 8 pm.

I'm so fucking exhausted.
I looked around. Like I expected, everyone looked like they'd rather eat rocks than spending another second here.

All of us grabbed our bags and headed to our dorm to fresh up.

I came out of the shower with my towel hanging on my shoulder.
No one has came yet.
Damn, I'm the first one to come out again?

I picked up my phone and sat on our bench.
I've been so busy these days that I couldn't even pick up my calls.

3 missed calls from James Park. I didn't wait as I dialed him.

"Hello, son !" My father's merry voice came loud and clear even though my phone is not on speaker.

"Hi, dad." I ruffled my wet hair with my hands, guilt pooling down my stomach.
"Sorry I couldn't pick up earlier. Today's practice has been really hetic."

"Oh no, that's okay." I can clearly see him making a face on the other side. "Practice makes a man perfect, doesn't it ? Just look at yourself as an example." His chuckle bursted through my phone.

I couldn't help but laugh along with him. His words have been always humorous yet supporting. He's the one who convinced me into this carrer after all.

"So, what's up ? Any news or something? " I asked.
He doesn't usually call on my workdays knowing that I'd be squished with my works.

"Yeah, nothing. Just..." He cleared his throat, sign of him getting serious.

I closed my eyes.
Please.

The last time he cleared his throats, I ended up in a serious conversation with my dear dad about the importance of marrige and carrying the Park family clan.
I'm burying myself in my works here and my parents are sulking about the lack of my romance life.

It's not like I'm against marrige.

But I just turned twenty six a couple of months ago for god's sake!

I have my career in front of me right now. Our contract is supposed to be terminated in three years.
So I'm not thinking about having a woman walk down the aisle for me right now.
Not yet.

I still have a long way to go in my life.

My career.
Finding someone who I'd like to actually spend the rest of my life with.
Finding someone who I'd be willing to risk my everything with.
I'm not ready.
