*Listen to Midnight by Alesso and Liam Payne while reading this chapter.*
I was one of the best kids parents could ever ask for yet that did not seem to make a difference. As I reached my teens years they decided to ship we off to South Korea for a foreign exchange program. They wanted to get rid of me and they wanted me as far away as they could. I remember being on the plane crying because I couldn't understand why they were doing this to me. I was always quiet and did as they told me, but they were sending me away anyway.
Nothing was ever good enough for my parents it seemed. I always did well in school and obeyed them like I should, but there was never a time where I wasn't getting yelled at for something. It never made sense to me and then they sent me away. That is when I realized that I would never be enough for them. They were done with me. Throwing away their trash never to be seen again.
On the plane to my new home in South Korea, I told myself that this is the best thing that could have happened to me. I was going to be starting a new life and I never had to go back if I didn't want to. After thinking about this I felt at peace at what was behind me. South Korea was my new start.
The fourteen hours to my new home felt like forever. I was getting impatient. I wanted to start my new life as soon as possible. When the plane landed I practically ran off of it going into the airport. My new family would be waiting for me inside and sure enough they were. They were holding a sign above their head that read,
"Welcome Home Tabby!!"
They all had grins on their faces and were waving their arms around. As soon as I saw them all I could feel was happiness. All my worries evaporated. This is the first time anyone has been so excited to see me.
I ran up to the family and the mother of the family hugged me tight in her arms. I instantly started crying into her warm chest. She started to rub my back as I cried. This will be the first time I have ever felt this affection from a mother. It was the nicest feeling.
"Welcome to the Min family, baby girl." She told me softly. I smiled through the tears. I really was home now. I finally parted from her and turned to the rest of the family. The father and their only daughter. They started to introduce themselves to me.
"I'm your father, Min Beomseok." He said and gave me a gentle smile.
"And I'm your mother, Min Youngsoon."
"And I'm your sister, Min Jisoo." Everyone was all smiles and so was I.
"It's so nice to finally meet you all. Thank you for taking me in." I told them.
"You needed a loving family." Beomseok said. Youngsoon took my hand and I went with my new family to my new home.
I started going to school along with Jisoo shortly after I got to Korea. I took Korean lessons along with the other classes I needed. I loved it here. It was exactly what I needed. Jisoo is also the one who showed me what Kpop was and I feel in love with Korea's music.
My life as the second Min daughter was everything to me. They treated me like I was their own and I treated them like they were mine. This truly was my family. Nobody could make my mind up about that.
Because I was a teen when I moved to South Korea I did need guardians. The Min's went and requested custody of me just a year after I started living with them. My parents back in the states just gave it to them without another word, so after that I really was a Min. Tabby Min from that day forward.
Jisoo and I graduated high school and went on to college together. We were roommates in our years of college. She got her art degree and I got my music manager degree. Yes a manger's degree. After discovering Kpop, I became lost in it and knew being a manger was what I wanted for myself. Our parents were happy for us.
I remained in Seoul with my parents, while Jisoo moved to a town over to pursue a career in art. We all see each other a lot.
Sometime after I graduated I went looking for an entertainment company that needed a manager. It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. I finally found one a couple months later called Starship Entertainment. I applied and got an interview shortly after.
My interview was with the CEO, Kim Sidae. I walked into his office that day not really knowing what to even expect. I was so nervous and scared, but I wanted this so bad that I put on a brave face.
"Please sit." Sidae gestured to the chair in front of his desk. I sat down in front of him.
"Thank you for seeing me." I said and he nodded. He looked up from my resume.
"I see you just graduated college. That makes you what age?" He asked.
"I'm 22, sir."
"You have no experience, but I think this would be a good opportunity for you." Sidae said this and I perked up.
"You do?"
"I do. Tabby, I have a new group that will debut soon and I think I want you to be their manager. It would be a new experience for all of you." He explained and I couldn't believe my ears.
"Really? I'm getting the job?"
"Yes. The boys you will be managing are your age, so that will be interesting." I almost laughed at this.
"My age? Who is this group?"
"Follow me." He said and got up from his desk. I followed him down the hall. He stopped in front of a door that said practice room and turned the handle.
The music coming out of the room wrapped around me as I walked into the room with Sidae. The music was suddenly turned off and I was now face to face with seven guys in a silent room. I skimmed over all of them and my eyes lingered on one of them in particular.
My heart started to feel funny in a way I had never felt before. I think this was my first sign of something more.
