Before The Dawn

Twenty Five - The Audition (Part 2)

Hyena's POV

I stood outside the Audition Room in Woollim Entertainment. I noticed that there were a lot of people who came for the audition. Some were even rehearsing in the hallway, and I must admit some were really good. Seeing them working rigorously is making me super nervous.

I don't have anyone with me right now because as you all know that no one should know that I am related to Uncle Jungyeop. I don't want to practice anymore because I know my routine so well because it was me and Myungsoo who were the ones who choreographed it. So that left me an option to just sit in a corner by myself.

I couldn't help but feel bad about what I am seeing around me. Most of the people who came for the audition are accompanied by their friends or their parents. While me, I am just here all alone. I understand that INFINITE couldn't accompany me here, but I couldn't help but feel really sad right now. I am starting to doubt myself, and I don't know if I should continue this or not.

I need to breathe.

I checked my watch, and I noticed that it was just 12:05 PM. I still have an hour or so to go before the audition starts. I really feel bad right now, and I could feel that any minute now, tears will fall from my eyes. I don't want other people to see it, so I decided to go to the rooftop.

I tried to run as fast as I could. I think I even bumped into someone, but I didn't bother to look up. I didn't mind the people around me. When I finally reached the rooftop, I was relieved because no one was there. I walked my way to the railings and stared at the sky.

"Omma. Appa. I finally found Uncle Jungyeop." I said. "I am right now here in Woollim Entertainment. Did you know that he is the CEO of this company?"

Tears started to form in my eyes. I feel really sad right now, and what's worst is that no one was here to comfort me. I took out my phone because I really wanted to call Woohyun Oppa now, but I don't want to bother him. I know that he is quite busy right now. "Appa, I don't know if I should feel happy that I found him. Well to be honest, part of me is happy because I have someone who I can call a family, but part of me is still sad because you guys are not here with me. I am really sorry if I feel this way. I know you don't want to see me sad, but I can't help it."

"Mom. Dad. I really miss you. Jeongmal bogoshipoyo. I don't know what will do without you both in my life. Two weeks ago, I tried committing suicide. I am sorry if I did that. I didn't know what came to my mind, but I really wanted to be with you. I wanted to see you." I said as tears fall from my eyes.

I don't know what got into me, but sadness filled my soul, and it suddenly consumed me. It seems like I was in a trance. I decided to get up the railings and walked to the edge of the platform. Again, crazy things formed inside my mind again. It seems like someone was telling me to end my suffering, so I decided to jump. I was about to jump when I heard someone shout behind me.

Everything happened so fast. The next thing I knew is that I was already on the ground and that certain someone was holding me close. I tried to get up to see who was it, but darkness enveloped me.

Woohyun's POV

Sungkyu Hyung and I arrived at Woollim at around 11:00 in the morning. We had a lot of things to do before the audition. We need to look at everyone's profile and judge all of them accordingly. Actually, I am very happy today because I was really looking forward to seeing Hyena's performance. It took us an hour to finish the briefing with Jungyeop Hyung. I looked at my watch, and I noticed that it was just 12:00 NN. I still have an hour to spare before everything starts, so I decided to take a break.
