Trainees | Yang Jeongin ✔

4| Forget

Today was the showcase. Every trainee was busy with their make up. Jeongin was nervous singing his lines.

"You'll do fine. Just try your best." Chan confronted him.

"But your going to hold the responsibility." Jeongin thought.

Jeongin faked a smile and freshened up. Woojin was helping Seungmin with his vocal.

The girl teams turn was up. JYP-nim was just up there. It made Jeongin tremble.

Nervous as hell.

He just prayed, that his team would do fine.

"I don't look for trouble but trouble looks for me!" the girls sang. Gosh, the trainees were amazed.

"We can do better." Hyunjin stuttered. Hyunjin wasn't confident when he said that.

It was their turn.

"Lets do our cheer." Chan chanted. Chan created a cheer for their team.

"Stray Kids,"

"Hwaiting!"

They raised their hands to the air. After that they got into their formation, and with that the music played.

-

"Good job, guys. Just rest for now." Chan wiped his sweat with a piece of cloth. Jeongin just nodded, he was panting and sweating.

"Good job, maknae!" Seungmin back-hugged Jeongin tightly. Jeongin wanted him to stop, but Seungmin didn't let go.

Out of nowhere, Seungmin's eyes became teary.

Seungmin ran away. Jeongin just chased after him.

-

"Seungmin, open up!" Jeongin knocked the door. Seungmin locked it.

"We've been looking for you guys, where is Seungmin?"

Jeongin pointed his finger towards the door.

The trainees continued banging the door.

"Seungmin, let's talk your problems out!" Minho shouted.

"Who is he close to? Ah, maknae!" Chan had an idea.

"We are leaving you, come quickly. We are going on the stage in 30 minutes." Chan gave a signal towards Jeongin.

Jeongin understood. Jeongin knocked the door slowly.

"Seungmin, talk to me. The trainees don't like seeing you like this."

"I'll count to three-" the door immediately opened to see a pair of red puffy eyes.

Jeongin entered the room. Seungmin leaned against the wall. "Maribwayo (tell me)." Jeongin sat down beside him.

The room was dusty with old stuff. It looked like the storage room. Jeongin was worried with his hyung.

"I am just happy."

There was silence.

"To perform in front of people."

"I am just happy."

"To be given the chance."

"To perform for once in a lifetime."

"I don't care if I get eliminated."

"Because it is a chance of a lifetime."

"My dream."

"To perform in front of JYP-NIM."

"No one can the chance easily."

"I am happy that my family watches me. I know that they are proud of me."

"Where are they?"

"Home. Where they belong."

Seungmin smiled. He wiped his tears.

"I am glad that I talked it out with someone."

Jeongin offered a hand helping Seungmin stand up.

Jeongin understood his feelings. No one can get the chance easily.

Jeongin knew he was lucky to become a trainee.

He was lucky to pass the audition.

He was lucky to see TWICE , GOT7. Unlike other international fans.

After that, they went back to the stage.

-

"The one who did the best."

"I am sorry but the boys team, WON!"

All the boys jumped out of happiness hugging each member.

"WE DID IT, GOOD JOB GUYS!"

Jeongin just smiled widely.

He couldn't stop smiling.

He was on the verge of crying.

Happy.

Proud.

But, it wasn't the end yet.

If he practices carelessly for the new mission.

He would be eliminated.

Sent home.

He realized, happiness only lasts for awhile when you achieve it.

He has to practice to stay on the line.

"I now know on how to achieve my dream."
