Chapter Three.
Jin's POV
It has been 3 weeks. 21 Days of practice, and our FINAL day of practice. I have gotten used to all of the positions, and have even made an individual dance for myself - our plan is to do a group dance as well as a solo dance. I have been staying at Won's house the whole time, too. The dance battle is in 24 hours. I hope we make it in time.
"Okay! Everyone bring in!" Hyo called out and we all gathered around, putting our hands in a circle, mine squeezing Won's. We lift our hands up on three and cheer, wishing for a safe and fun challenge tomorrow night.
I heard Seventeen will bring their manager, too, in case they find a hidden talent within one of us. I doubt it would be me, though. I am no one special. I'm not personally beautiful, I have low self esteem, and get nervous easily.
I decide that I will go back to my house and get my stuff before I move into Won's house. I know, this is a HUGE step, but it's worth it.
I open up the house with my spare key and find my mother on the floor, with blood oozing out of her mouth. She looks up to me, barely conscious, and blinks. "It's...him" she whispers, and I scream, immediately calling the ambulance, which arrive 2 minutes later. They ask for my information and I quiver. "My name is Seukyeo Jin, I am the daughter of this woman, Seukyeo Haekyeolin. I just returned from dance practice to find my mother in this condition." I say, panting and Wheezing, tears rolling endlessly down my pale cheek. I give a paramedic my phone number, and sprint away, to a the place I enjoy most, to the person I love most. To Won's house.
I knock on the door, and Won opens it, seeing my red eyes and pulling me into a hug. I cry into his chest, and he kisses my head. I hug him tighter, and then let go to tell him the story. We sit on his bed together, and he strokes my hair. He has done this a few times in my life, and that's why I stay with him. I get up, and bow, before exiting through the front door. I walk back to my house, and grab my suitcase, filling it with my clothes, and grabbing a photo - one of my brother. He was in a soldier in the army, and was killed in action. I miss him. I feel like my family is falling apart. I feel like I am falling apart. I put my headphones on and play some of my favourite songs. I get up, and walk into my brothers old room, which is now an empty dance room. I tap my feet on the floor, as Adore U played. I wait for my part to come up, and I start singing with my moves.
"Neoreul Noraehae U-Hoo, Neoreul Noraehae U-Hoo" I wave my arms and smile while someone walks in. I take off my headphones to see Hyo standing there, a tear in her eye, while she clapped. She walks up to me and engulfs me in a hug.
"I heard the news." She whispers, and I gulp. I pause my music and walk with her to Won's house again, instead with my suitcase and Hyo wearing my backpack full of photos.
Won's POV
I hear another knock on my door and open it to find Jin and Hyo. My face turns bright red, after remembering what just happened. Hyo comes up to me, and whispers in my ear.
"Take care of her. Please".
I nod and welcome them in. I show Jin her new room and I give her a gift. She opens it and finds a necklace. Friends forever.
She opens the locket and finds a picture of me and her hugging. She thanks me with a kiss on the cheek and I turn away, with my face redder than a tomato. Hyo smiles and the speaks up.
"I better get going. Make sure to get some rest and don't be late for the dance!" She calls while walking out the door. I wave at her and then turn back to Jin, to find her amazed at her room. I have already decorated it with posters of her favourite Kpop groups, including our competition. I made her bed and helped packed her stuff. She thanks me, and we decide to go out for lunch together. I am going to love her staying with me.
