Mommy's Baby Boy | NCT's JungWoo x f(x)'s Amber

5. Alright

I stretch as I look around the room and see that the movie is over. I tilt my head up and see that Amber is asleep.

I move to get up and head to the bathroom, but her grip on me tightens. I look around and grab a pillow, slipping it between her hands and me, before slipping out of her grip. I slowly climb off the bed and stand up, slowly walking out. I run to the bathroom and close the door as softly as I can.

When I open the door, I walk down the stairs and look around. I walk down the hall off the side of the kitchen and walk into an open area that looks like a studio. I see a notebook open on the desk so I walk over. I pull the spiny chair out and sit in it. I pull my legs up to my chest and look at the page.

Come along inside
I can tell that you are tired of it all
You don't have to lie

You can get it off your mind
Get it off

I tilt my head as I look down at the page, confused.

"She is writing a song?" I wonder to myself.

I see a note at the top of the page that says something in a tiny hand writing.

"When I meet him, this song will be for him"

There is a date next to it.

4/9/2018

I flip the page and see another lyric

I know you feel like you're alone
With nowhere else to go
Let's just take it slow
I know you feel like you're alone
With nowhere else to go, oh

But it's gon' be alright
It'll be alright
It's gonna be alright, It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
I'm gon' make it right
(Don't you worry, don't you worry) It's gonna be alright

Gonna be alright

"When I finish this song, I want him to be happy"

I smile and look down at the date again

4/9/2019

I can feel the writing on the next page so I flip it.

I know that you're hurting, taking over you
Feel it in your body, everything you do
You don't have to worry, it's gon' be alright
It might take some time, won't change overnight
But it's gon' be alright
It'll be alright
It's gon' be alright
I'm gon' make it right

I know you're hurting from your thoughts
Too afraid you'll never be enough
That burden heavy, so heavy, yeah
But it's okay to take it off
Another day will try to come
I promise that you're stronger than you know

"I finally finished it. And he is here."

4/9/2020

 I smile at the page and set the book back down on the page it was on.

I go to stand when I see my name on a paper. I pick it up and read it.

The song for JungWoo did not turn out how I thought it would when I first started writing it. It is better now.
