ATEEZ 9th member

Dance Practice Part 2

After practice, Sunny and the boys headed back to the dorm to eat a late dinner and then sleep for an early schedule in the morning. Even though Sunny had heard what Seonghwa, said she couldn't help but still think that she needed to be perfect. So instead of going to sleep, she snuck out of the dorm and to the practice room at the agency.
———————
It was around 1am when Wooyoung had heard a noise coming from downstairs. He got up quietly but in the process woke up Yeosang.

Yeosang: Wooyoung-ah what are you doing?
Wooyoung: I heard a noise coming from downstairs. Come with me. I don't want to go alone.

Yeosang did it even argue and just went along with Wooyoung to see what was downstairs. When they came down, they saw a small figure leave the dorm.

Wooyoung: who do you think it is?
Yeosang:
Hongjoong hyung? Or Sunny?
Wooyoung: I'll go check the rooms
———
Wooyoung: it's Sunny. Where is she going out this late.
Yeosang: let's find out

They left the dorm and followed Sunny, and to their surprise it was the agency's practice room. They watched as she entered the room and practiced alone. They looked at each other knowing that she was doing what they did before they debuted.

Wooyoung: it must be hard for her
Yeosang: she is only 16. At least we debuted at 19 or 20 but she is still a teen.

After a little while, they finally decided to enter the practice room and talk to Sunny

Yeosang: Sunny-ah

She looked to the direction where her name was called to see her two members looking at her. She slowly brought her head down, embarrassed by her actions

Wooyoung: it's okay. You don't have to be embarrassed. We did the same thing before he debuted but we realized it must be a lot harder for you to debut at a younger age than we did

Sunny: I'm not embarrassed, I just feel a little bit ashamed. I know I shouldn't sneak out but I couldn't help it. I want to be perfect for ATINY especially since it's my debut. And I just don't want to let them down

Yeosang: Sunny-ah, trust us. You are learning so much faster than we did and you are an amazing dance and singer and performer. The last thing you could do is let ATINY down. And if you want to have extra practice, just say so. We would be willing to come with you but you also need sleep and rest. You are only 16 and you are still growing.

Wooyoung: So please if you have any worries just come talk to us okay?

Sunny: Okay Oppa. Thank you

Yeosang: lets go back to the dorm now. Hongjoong hyung may or may not be awake and mad

Sunny, Wooyoung, and Yeosang all looked each other with concern and rushed out of the agency and to the dorm as fast as they could.
Once they arrived, they came in as quiet as they could but there were two figures waiting in the living room that they neglected to see.

Hongjoong: Stop. Back it up and park it here.

And so they backup up and stood in front of the two eldest members with their heads down hoping to not get a scolding.

Seonghwa: Please do explain what in the name you guys were doing out this late.

Sunny: About that Oppa. So you see...

Wooyoung: Me and Yeosang snuck out and Sunny cam after us.

Sunny: it's ok oppa you don't have to cover for me.

Seonghwa: I see... Wooyoung- ah, Yeosang-ah go up stairs to bed. You too, Hongjoong-ah

Seonghwa: Again? After we had that talk in the practice room?
Sunny: I couldn't help it, Oppa.
Seonghwa: But I told you that your heath is the most important thing. You stay out late to practice, you don't eat much, and you are losing too much weight. Sunny-ah, there is difference between practicing till you can't get it wrong, and obsession over being perfect. I understand that you don't want to let ATINY down but don't you think risking your heath is even worse? ATINY wants you to be healthy and happy, but are you healthy? Are you happy?

Sunny had no words. Her head was looking to the ground with tears streaming down her face because she knew everything he said was right.

Sunny: now I feel like I've let you down...

Seonghwa makes expression changed. He grabbed her and embraced her telling her both words of encouragement and words of love

Seonghwa: Sunny-ah. You could never let me down. You could never let any of us down. You are amazing at what you do. You are an amazing girl who puts up with 8 boys in their early 20's who are less mature than you are. Okay? Do not ever think you could let us down. We only want the best for you. Okay?

Sunny nodded her head, and smiled wrapping her arms around Seonghwa's waist to hug him tightly as a "thank you" for what he had told hers
