Seokjin (narrating): Since we are not popular so far we all tried to live by also working part-time to not skip any rehearsals. Namjoon was always late though. I think he cared about us being broke the most. Sometimes it even looks as if he's working more than just one part-time job. Me and Namjoon were working at a gas station, Yoongi was working at a delivery, Hoseok and Jimin were working at a restaurant, Hoseok was serving food while Jimin was a dishwasher. Taehyung was a cashier at a grocery store near the studio, and Jungkook was still too young to get any job.
The rehearsal started but Namjoon was late. When he rushed in, he was panting.
Jimin: Hyung! You came!
Namjoon: I'm sorry, I-- *huff huff*
Seokjin: You okay, Namjoon?
Namjoon: Yeah, yeah, let's get to practice.
Seokjin (narrating): We practiced for about two and a half hours and Namjoon looked extremely tired. I'm getting worried...
Soon, during the practice, happened what Seokjin was aware of. Namjoon collapsed.
All: !!!! NAMJOON!
Namjoon: *sits up* I'm fine--
Seokjin: No you're not! I've been watching you during the practice! You looked too exhausted!
Taehyung: Right! I saw it too!
Namjoon: Guys, I'm fine, really!
Seokjin: Namjoon, what's going on? You are always too tired. Do you even eat? Sleep? You almost always skip meals with us because you've got somewhere else to go. What's going on?
Namjoon: I said I'm fine! Let's just get back to practice!
Seokjin (narrating): It was pointless to argue with Namjoon since he won't tell us, so we just got back to practice. I was watching him just in case.
*after the practice*
*Namjoon and Yoongi were sharing a dorm*
Namjoon: *talking on the phone* I know mom, I'm trying!! Mom-- Mom! Ugh..!
Yoongi heard Namjoon talking on the phone. He usually didn't care about his calls, but this time, he felt like listening. And so he stood by the door.
Namjoon: I am working as much as I can! Mom, I'm in the group, it should also help-! I know we're not popular yet, but we're all trying!! I'm- LET ME SAY!!! I AM WORKING AT 5 DIFFERENT JOBS INCLUDING THE GROUP!! AND ALL THAT TO HELP GET MONEY FOR FATHER! WHY CAN'T YOU AT LEAST APPRECIATE ME DOING IT FOR THE SAKE OF OUR FAMILY??? IT'S NOT MY FAULT WE'RE BROKE! But at least I'm trying to help instead of just yelling that I'm disappointed like someone!!
With that, Namjoon ended the call. He sighed, letting out a shaky breath since his eyed were filled with tears after he snapped. He sat on his bed and wiped the newly formed tears away.
Yoongi: So that's why you were so exhausted, huh?
Namjoon: !!! Yoongi-hyung?! How much of a conversation have you heard?
Yoongi: You're working at four jobs and the group??
Namjoon: You heard that...
