♡Chapter 4: Evaulation And Icecream!♡

Eunjin woke up to her alarm.
She sat up in bed and jumped.
Just to be met with dizziness augh..
She sat back down on the edge of the bed until she felt better then rushed to the shower.

She washed her hair as she felt the cool water trickle down her face. She felt extremely excited. Chan had mentioned they had about 2 months before they had to present themselves before the Boss so he could choose which group would debute. So she would have to practice vigorously.

She didn't mind though. By now she felt close to the boys as she never was to anyone before. They were so kind to her.

She arrived and they all greeted her.
She bowed and hugged each of them,
She no longer felt shy and small.

       ———————————

Whenever I was with the boys I felt warm and happy. Today especially.
They all helped me and with there help I quickly learned the song we were going to perform.

After practice Felix came up to me with a shy expression on his face.

"Hey Yongbok!" I teased punching his arm slightly. He smiled and greeted me sheepishly. By his expressions I noticed something was bothering him but I couldn't tell what.

"You good?" I asked in English.

"Well yeah but um.. Well can I ask you something? As like um a f-favor?" He answered looking down.

"Of course."

"Could you help me with my accent?"

"Um Felix I don't think theres anything wrong with your English accent. A lot of people like Aussie accents." I  answered raising an eyebrow.

"N-no no not my English accent, My Korean accent." He said looking down.

"Oh oh! Im sorry I misunderstood. And sure bud anything you need" I smiled at him.

His face immediately changed and he seemed so happy his whole appearance changed, in fact the whole room changed. It was like he was lighting the room, Like sunshine.

We immediately started talking and practicing his Korean. I learned a lot about him. He told me of his life in Australia and I told him about my past.

"So you don't know anything about your real parents?" He asked munching on an apple.

"No, I don't even know what there names were or how they looked. Worse I don't know if my Mother loved me, or cared for me." I said sadly.

At this he didn't reply but simply patted my back gently.

We continued talking sometimes in Korean and sometimes English But after correcting his Korean we somehow got to talking about my dreams.

"Singing is a big part of me, its like my heart. I can't live without it."

"I understand. So what is one of your greatest goals in life?"

"I want to one day compose a song then sing it at the Lollapalooza in Chicago."

"Wow thats a big dream. But I know you could do it, I believe in you Eunjin."

"Thanks Felix. It was nice talking to you. Your a great listener."

"And your a great talker" He teased.

We both laughed. Chan then came and said. "C'mon mates time to practice again" we both groaned. Our bodies already ached. But nevertheless we followed Chan to the practice room and once again practiced till every muscle hurt. It went like that for two months until finally, the day for the Evaluation and decision came.

All of the members (including me), were nervous. But we decided to do our best and if we weren't chosen, we promised we wouldn't give up.

We performed our best. And I felt proud to be a part of them. 3Racha had me wiping fake tears when they came back from performing.
I patted there shoulders and said to Chan.

"Im proud of you son, Im proud of you" [A/N: wink wink ;)] I said wiping a fake tear. Once we again we all laughed and embraced.
We suddenly heard the announcement.

"All trainees please head to the main stage in calm and orderly fashion.Thank you"

J.y.p. watched both groups perfom, they did very well. But one person from the boy group stood out. A girl? What was a girl doing in the group? He asked the man beside him. "Whos the girl?"
"Her name is Eunjin. She joined then a few months ago."

Jy.p. nodded and then asked about the others that stood out. He answered accordingly and he decided they were ready.

Everyone at the stage waited breathlessly as Jyp made his decision.
He finally looked up from his notes and with his twinkle annouced the winners.

"The boy group!"

         —————————————

My jaw dropped as I looked around to see the other members in shock. We won!  I could barely contain my Joy. The rest of the night went by in a blurr. I was interviewed and asked so many questions. But I was barely there. I just talked but my mind wasn't on the questions.

I raced home and told my parents. We decided to celebrate and go out; and what better way then to get late night icecream! I sat down across from them eating my favorite Icecream Sunday with a Root beer float. Icecream was my weakness.

"Soooo tell me Eunjin, what is going to happen now?" My Mum asked for like the Trillionth time.

"Well, in a few days im going to be moving into the dorms and-"
I was cut of by my Dad interupting me.

"Dorms? As in you'll share rooms?"

I looked down as I answered. " Um yeaaah...?" Both my parents were shocked and it took a whole 2 hours to get them to understand that The boys were to be trusted and not at all like Yeumin.

"I dunno Sweetheart i just don't wanna see you hurt again." My Dad said putting his hand on mine.

"I know. And I promise the minute I feel unsafe, Ill leave."

"Good you know we both love you and only want the best for you right?"

"I do Omma thanks. I love you guys too"

"You better." My Mom joked.

I sighed. I loved my Parents. Before The boys, I only had them. They were the best. As I kept think I realized we didn't have a group name yet. I heard that there was a chance for 'Stray Kids' but I wasn't sure. I decided to talk to Chan about it.

"Penny for your thoughts?" Said my Dad speaking English.

"Ohhh nothing. I was just wondering how I hit the Jackpot on the parents card." We all laughed.

Im gonna miss them.
