it's already night time and the concert will start anytime soon, i helped wenjun to give the tokens to the guests while still holding the bouquet

once done, i approached wenjun if he has some more requests, "do you still need anything ge?"

he shook his head, "go ask xinchun if he needs anything", miyoung approached us and waved her hand at me

i nodded and waved back as i quickly went near to xinchun, "do you need any help?"

he removed his ear piece, "WHAT?", he shouted, there are a lot of people back stage and it is impossible to hear one another

"DO YOU NEED ANY HELP?" i shouted back, he smiled and nodded

"TELL PRISTIN TO GET READY, THEY WILL BE THE FIRST ONE TO PERFORM!"

i nodded as i immediately went to their dressing room, i started to knock,

"come in", a soft and lovely voice from the room was heard

i rotated the door knob and slowly entered the room, i bowed before them and smiled, "good day! you will be the first one to perform. are you now ready?"

a tall girl nodded, "we'll get going now, thank you for reminding us!"

"no problem, it's my job!"

"but before we perform, can we take a picture with you?" a girl with a long, black, wavy hair went near me and pinched my cheeks, "you're so cuteeee!"

i awkwardly laughed, "thank you and yes, you could take pictures with me!"

all of them cheered as they give their phones to the managers, and they immediately took pictures

after a few shots, i bowed infront of them and went out of the room

"woah! that was only one group and it's already tiring" i mumbled to myself as i went back to xinchun

he looked up from the papers he's looking earlier and smiled, "YOU CAN GO NOW! I ALREADY ASKED JUSTIN AND CHENGCHENG FOR THE OTHER GROUPS"

zeren approached us and patted my shoulder, "you've done enough, kid. go and have fun!"

"thanks ge! i'll be back later with a good news!"

zeren laughed, "yeah, whatever. the one i bought, is that the right one?"

"oh this?" i showed him the bouquet, "it's pretty! thanks zeren!"

he ruffled my hair, "no problem, but please buy it by yourself next time"

i laughed, xinchun tapped zeren making the latter to say his goodbyes to me, "i should go back now or zhengting will kill us all"

i nodded as we both started to separate, i went outside where the most students are

a few minutes later, the performances started with Pristin as the first one to perform

with the ongoing performances, i tried to look for someone. this time i will be brave enough to tell her. it's better to give it to her now before the flowers go wither

i saw yankai around the place but he is too far for me to approach, zuo ye on the another hand has someone with him and i don't want to even disturb or interrupt them

"where are the others? they might know where meiqi is" i muttered under my breath as i try to find chunhua, ling chao, linong, maotong, zhenghao and chenle around

i scratched my nape as i wander my eyes around the place, "i never thought this school has these many students!"

Pristin, SING, and Chengxiao have already done performing but still i haven't seen some of my friends, especially Meiqi

looking through the familiar and unfamiliar faces, i finally saw her, Huang Meiqi

my face lit up as i ran upon going to her destination, my heart beats faster than usual and i pray that my coward heart will not show up later on

i suddenly stopped into a halt when i saw some senior with her, laughing together and had their hands intertwined

that senior is taller than me and quite handsome too, he's probably richer than me as well. that laugh and smile, i must be the one giving that to her.

it broke my heart, what do i even expect? i already know meiqi would be like this but why do i even strive harder just to get her?

"Sick of trying girl for you", Zhang Jie sang his new song, pretty white lies, which the lyrics might probably hit me big time

i quickly turned my back as the tears started to roll down my cheeks, i started to walk away and gave my flowers to a random person instead

the song continued with more relatable lyrics, "When you go out every night are you thinking of me. Just tell me now put me out of my misery"

"uhm thank you?" i heard her saying that but i didn't waste my time to look at her face

instead i started running going back stage to help the other student council members and try to make my self busy again

i think by this, it will help me ease the pain i am bearing
