Chapter 38

Don't get too comfortable yet. I've got one more thing up my sleeve🙃

Soorim POV

And so the awaited day had arrived.

After finishing up our Adelaide concerts, there was one more concert left. In our motherland herself, Seoul, South Korea. The place where this whole crazy journey began.

"Are you ready to end it?" I asked Taehyung.

"I thought I was, but now I'm kind of sad that it's over. I really loved meeting all my fans all over the world. Next time I want to lengthen it so I can meet more of them and explore other crazy places," he hummed wistfully.

"Well there will be plenty of time for that, but you deserve some much needed rest," I cooed.

We boarded the plane and took off. Flying back home. And once this was over, everything would move into place.

Time Skip

A fourteen-hour flight later, we arrived at Incheon Airport, bombarded with swarms of excited fans.

Because Sora and Taehyung hadn't broken up yet, they were still near each other. But there was a new friendship between them. She was no longer being obnoxious, though I could tell it took a lot of restraint for her not to do something for the fans.

"Soon Sora. We can get you the help you need soon," I murmured.

It was kind of hard to believe that a three months has past in the year. We were already in March but it felt like we were in January a few days ago.

I stopped by my house to greet my parents, catch up, and shower. But I had to do it quick because I had to go set up the venue one last time for the tour.

"Sweetie, before you leave, did things work out with you and that boy?" My mom asked.

I choked, "How did you know?"

"I'm glad I finally got to talk to Lena. She's a really sweet girl," my mom grinned.

I'm going to kill her.

"Well mom, things are great between the two of us. Really great," I couldn't help but boast.

My dad chuckled, "You show him the Kang power okay honey."

"Good lord dad. Alright I'm off. I've got a flight to LA after the concert tomorrow but I'll be back with my other stuff I promise," I said, heading out to go set up the venue.

It was a nice spring day in March and everything felt right.

I arrived at the venue, shocked to see that all the others were there too.

"Shouldn't you all be resting for tomorrow?" I questioned.

"You should too. But you're here. So are we. And we have something to give you," Jungkook argued.

I approached them warily.

In one of the manager's hands was a full looking envelope.

"Here is the much awaited paycheck, plus added bonus for the dancing, for the past eight months!" They exclaimed.

I looked at them in shock, "No way. This is way more than my rate."

"You went above and beyond so we figured we could too," one of them said.

I was going to cry, "Guys this is so sweet. It means a lot, especially since this is my last paycheck of my stage managing job."

Some of them looked at me confusedly but others caught on.
