Mini Concert

Hye-jin's POV:
It's the day of Seol-jin's mini concert! I've been staying with Uncle Jaehyung and them for a week or so. Seol-jin said that I could come to the mansion for visits, that she got permission from Band PD Nim for me to come over. She also told them that her family is coming to the concert and to make sure that we would get a discount for tickets and front row seats. Uncle Jaehyung is gonna drive me over to the mansion.

I text Seol-jin that I'm on my way over.  She leaves me on read.  Weird!  Maybe she just woke up.  She doesn't usually leave me on read.

At last, I arrive at the mansion.  I knock on the door, hoping that someone will open the door.  I'm trying to wait patiently for someone to get the door.  So far no one has gotten it yet.  I knock on the door again.  This time I hear someone open the door from the inside.

The door is open.  I'm greeted by Eun-Kyung, who is wearing pink pajamas and ducky slippers.  "Annyeonghaseo," I say, bowing.  "Seol-jin, I thought you were inside sleeping!" she complains.  "And why are you so weird?  You're acting like we don't know each other."  I'm confused.  I'm not Seol-jin.  Why do you think I'm Seol-jin?  Oh, right, because we're twins!

"I'm not Seol-jin," I say politely.  "Ah, mianhae!" she exclaims.  "You must be Hye-jin!  It's a pleasure to meet you.  I'm Eun-Kyung."  "I'm pleased to meet you, Eun-Kyung," I say. 

Jinhee and Malee are downstairs.  "Good morning Eun-Kyung, Seol-jin," Jinhee says.  "Actually—" Eun starts to say, but I stop her.  "Shhhhh!" I whisper.  "Let them figure it out."

Chiaki comes downstairs later, followed by Nari and Mi Sun.  "I thought Seol-jin was in our room sleeping," Nari says.  "It must have been Mi Sun that I saw sleeping in there.  Oh well."  They have no idea that I'm Hye-jin! 

"Seol-jin, are you ready for the mini concert?"  Malee asks.  "You must be," Chiaki says.  "You've been practicing a lot!"  "It's like every time I've seen you in the past two weeks you've been practicing," Mi Sun says.  I have no idea what to say.  I can't just say nothing, because that's not what Seol-jin would do.

"Ne," I reply.  "I've never been more ready!"  Sooner or later I notice that Seol-jin comes downstairs.  "Hey, guys," she says.  Everyone stops.  Everyone stares.  They must be very confused.

"Seol-jin, if you were in your room sleeping the whole time, than who's this?" Malee asks.  Malee gasps.  "An imposter!"  "Guys, guys, she's not an imposter," Seol-jin says.  "This is Hye-jin, my twin sister.  I told you guys about her."  "Ohhhh!" they say.  "Annyeonghaseo, Hye-jin."  "Annyeonghaseo," I reply.

"So Hye-jin, are you coming to the concert?" Chiaki asks.  "Of course, why else would I be here?" I reply.  "Come here, Strawberry Shortcake!" Seol-jin says, leaning in for a hug. "I've missed you, Hot Shot!" Is exclaim, hugging her back.

Seol-jin's POV:
I've really missed Hye-jin. I really hope the girls like her.  Why wouldn't they?  Hye-jin is nice, smart and funny.  I'm just waiting for Cheol-min to meet her and think that she's me.  I wonder what he would do!

"I heard that you've been practicing a lot, Seol-jin," Hye-jin says.  "I have," I reply. "I don't want to mess up." "You haven't been over practicing, have you?" "I...uh...don't think I have," I respond. "All she's been doing is practicing," Jinhee says. "She won't eat or sleep until she gets it right." "Snitch," I say.

"Yep," Mi Sun says. "I've been watching her practice and she does for 8 hours at a time." "Seol-jin!!!" Hye-jin exclaims. "I want to be perfect for the fans," I say. "Stop practicing so much!" Hye-jin exclaims. "You could pass out on stage due to your exhaustion!" "Well, I'm not the only one that's over practicing," I shoot back. "Much of us have been over practicing! Jinhee, Eun, Nari, Mi Sun..."
