Someone Like Me

Chapter 17

Jimin's POV

I sighed after seeing that she just left me again on seen. I've been sending messages to her everyday, simply asking how did her day went, is she having enough sleep, does she eat on time, but I never received any reply.

"I miss you, noona." I sighed as I lay down on my bed.

I know I told her that I'm going to let her go but it's really hard to keep my words.

As I was thinking how to have Seulgi noona back, a flustered face of Dahyun crossed my mind. She always look shocked or surprised every time we meet. I don't really know, there's a sense of familiarity each time I'll see her face.

I told myself not to have any business with her but since she is my partner for the performance, I want the both of us to be comfortable with each other. That's why I tried being extra friendly to her since she looks really uneasy around me.

Well, there is still this strange twitch inside my chest every time I look into her eyes. I wonder how that cheerful and loud girl have those melancholic orbs.

She does smile a lot but it seems that there's always a glint of sadness in her eyes. I don't know if I'm just imagining things so I chose to just shrug it off including the stinging sensation in my chest.

And because I am Park Jimin who likes every performance to be perfect, I'll exert more effort to be friends with Dahyun. I want our performance to go smoothly.

Thinking about all these things drains my energy, so I decided to just go early for our practice since I find it more relaxing to dance and sing than to slump on my bed and engulf myself with all these thoughts.

I grab my cap and mask and made my way to our entertainment since we'll be having our practice there today.

I entered the building and greet the staffs I meet on my way.

"Wow, you guys are so early. Fighting with the performance!" A staff told me.

I just nod and eyesmiled at her. As I was walking towards the practice room. I cock my brow as what the staff told me fully registered in my head.

Someone's here already?

My thought was confirmed after hearing the music playing as I get nearer to the practice room.

I peeked inside to see who's this early bird.

I expected someone from my group but it turned out wrong. I saw a girl wearing all black clothes with dark brown locks.

She didn't notice that I sneak in as she didn't stop from dancing. I squinted my eyes to examine the girls face since only few lights were open and some strands of her flowing hair cover her face.

"Dahyun?"

She halted from dancing right away and scan the room through the mirror and I don't know if her eyes can get any bigger right now.

After seeing her terrified expression, I immediately removed my cap and mask to let her recognize me.

"Ohh!" She said as she quickly tuck her hair behind her ears and turned the music off.

She faced me and bowed.

"Good morning, Jimin oppa. You're really early." She said panting.

She called me oppa. I hope she's more comfortable with me now.

"You're the one who's really early, Dahyun." I chuckled as I put my bag down the floor.

"Ah yes. Well, I was planning to have my practice in our entertainment but decided to just go straight here." She said, rubbing her nape.
