SPECIAL ONE SHOT STORIES

They Don't Know

JK POV.

I was fourteen when I became a trainee. I am an introverted kid but competitive in everything. Yes, I admit that I am selfish. What is mine is mine and what is yours is mine. I grow up that Everything I want I can have it. And at the young age, far from my parents and family is really hard. I grow up with 6 different people with 6 different personality and characteristic.

It's hard, really hard to be with someone you don't know. You need to adjust. As the youngest in the group, all I can say is, I'm lucky to have them. We are normal people who always argue and fight.

I have an attitude that I don't listen to anyone, but it all change when I realize that I'm not at home. And I change when Voo came. He always makes sure that I won't be shy. I'm always at his back. He became my safe zone and comfort zone.

They don't know that because I keep it. Voo was the most handsome man I ever known since we meet. His beauty is so ethereal. I can't take my eyes over him. I lost every time he talks. Every time he smiles.

At the young age I got confused with my personality. I ignored it because I was still young and there was much more to come in the future. Maybe I can say that your personality will really change if you meet the person who will change you.

When I was called The Golden Maknae, I felt the weight of my responsibility in the group. I can't be wrong. I have to be good at everything. I always have to perform well.

Members sometimes tell me not to pour everything into one thing, I need to live for myself.

Sometimes I secretly cry about my responsibility as a Golden Maknae. They get mad with me when I give my all to my performance. But they don't know the pressure on me. They don't know that I also struggle to maintain the title of being a Golden Maknae.

I know they are worried about me too. But I don't want to make a mistake. I don't want to be laughed at by other people just because I can't stand being a Golden Maknae.

I'm still thankful because the seven members try to understand me especially Voo. He is the only person who accept what I am truly are. They didn't know that before Voo confess to me. He always told me that "If you want to be successful in this industry, you need to get out of your shell. You need to face all the trials and hardship for you to reach your goal."

I didn't forget that because that word from Voo motivates me to do better.

And here I am now. Still holding the title as a Golden Maknae. And the only person who believe in me is the person who stay with me until now. They don't know how lucky I am to have Voo in my life. He always prioritizes what I want before him.

I am not in my foot right now if it wasn't for Voo who help me get out of my shell. He has a big part for my success now. He pushes me to do better. He supports me at all cost. The world didn't know everything how much I suffered.
