How's life with EXO?

Part 43: Black

3rd Person

Gloomy, Young is. She was in the middle of the hallway, as if she's a zombie hunting for brains. She takes a look from the back and slaps her forehead then. She makes it unbearable for Jungkook to watch, but she ain't going anywhere but straight to her classroom.

The second day of announcements? That's what Young's befuddling about. She makes everything clear by a thousand prayers, in the dorm, the bathroom, the school and now on her seat. How religious is she?

The drama club president comes in, Young's heart is thumping. Her heart racing as if it's going to explode any minute, she looks in front, then she'll massage his temple for some funny relaxation term.

By the front view, Young looks so stressed about the happening. She's expecting too much, that rejection could kill her if ever.

"We already have the leading man, but sadly it isn't from you guys. The leading lady? We're still in search. Sorry." He then leaves without another word.

Young on the other hand was placing his head back and fort against her table. Her classmates facing her, 'Is she crazy?'

Later that night. The numb Young came again, she was planned to be scared by Jungkook, but she wasn't in the mood.

"How great?" Jungkook blurts.

"What's great? Being rejected by some drama club after you've exerted such effort, but you still ended up failing. Is that great?" Young cried.

"Noona, that's not what I mea--"

Young ran out of the school, straight to where Red is. She entered the car, sniffing and tolerating the threatening tears.

_______

She went home, sobbing her way in. The boys were laughing with the twins the first step she got in, but they were in total aghast, as Young walks like a ghost passing by them.

"Young, you okay?" Tao asked.

Young shows a thumbs up, but her face isn't coordinating with it. After showing a thumbs up, she burried her face into her hands and cried more. She went straight to her room.

Suho signalled everybody, he snapped his fingers. "Better take care of our queen." He mumbles.

________

Young inside the room, with her face burried on the pillow. Wearing a black jumper that lies just to big for her, black shorts and black knee socks. Everything is black.

Someone knocks by her door, she opened it fast and sobs again. "Young what's the problem?" Chen asks with his arms wide open for a hug, while the others are just watching.

Young hugs Chen. Luhan and Xiumin who was carrying the twins were a bit worried to let the twins see their mom crying, Kris was just standing there. Kai was on the door frame, leaning closely to Young and Chen.

"All black? Did someone died?" Sehun the palyful one, jested but it sounds so real.

Young parted away from Chen. "Black? It's my broken hearted dress. Fits me well, right?" With a single brow pointing up and his total puffy eyes protruted ito the boys' sight.

________

Xiumin and Luhan decided to play with the twins in the baby room for awhile. Along with Chanyeol, Lay, Dyo, Chen and Sehun. While Baekhyun, Tao, Kai, Suho and Kris were with Young, comprehending the things she needs to do and the things she needs to stay away from.

"Do you think Young will be alright?" Chanyeol asks Chen and Dyo, but the two just shrugged it off and didn't mind to answer either 'yes' or 'no.'
