"Manager, this place looks amazing. It's my first time here, have you been here before? Do you think there's enough time for us to check out the area?" Namjoon said in rapid succession while looking out the window of the car. We've been on the road since 6 in the morning, only stopping for gas and food.
"It's my first time here too. We have today, tomorrow and the evenings, although Pdogg told me that we'll also be checking out the underground clubs tonight. If you want, we can check wherever you want to go tomorrow."
"Ah. Right. He scares me."
"Who? Pdogg? Yeah, he used to scare me too, because he's strict when it comes to what I'm doing. But then I realize it's because he wants me to learn, to develop more and to succeed." I look at Namjoon and saw that he was staring out the window, deep in thought. "What's the matter?"
"I was just thinking, what if I don't live up to the expectations? What if I fail? What if I don't get along with the rest of the members? What if they don't like me?" He said in a sigh, I look at him and when he met my eyes, he smiled awkwardly. "I'm sorry Manager, it's such a beautiful day and I'm ruining it with these negative thoughts."
Looking at the road again, I smiled, "Nope, they are normal thoughts. I've often wondered almost the same thoughts too. What if I don't do a good job? What if I make a mistake? What if they think I'm not good enough? There's so many what ifs that we can think of, but what good will it do? Nothing. It'll just keep piling up when we continue to stress about it." I said to him, I maneuver the car into the parking lot and faced him. "There was someone that once said 'Don't let your mind wander into an abyss where it's dark and ominous, instead go forward to where your heart would seem content and that's where you'll be happy."
"I think I understand what you're trying to say Manager, that I shouldn't dwell on negativity, think of the positive side of things and life would be much simpler and healthier and happier." I nod encouragingly on him making him smile a whole lot brighter. "But, who said that?"
"Bang-Bang. This was during a time when I felt like I was alone in this world and my parents just died from the accident." I said to him.
"Oh, wow. He must have been a good support for you then huh?"
"He saved me." I said, "Now, enough serious talk, let's go and meet up with the rest of the crew, check the schedule and then see what's in store for us here in Daegu!"
We checked in with the rest of the staff, stored our luggage in our rooms, freshened up for a bit and went back down to meet up. We used one of the board rooms to have our briefing, everyone was gathered around listening to George. We were given today and tomorrow free time to explore, except for those who would be involved in the production side of the auditions. Pdogg confirmed that we would be checking out the clubs together with some of the staff and giving out guidelines on what we would be looking for. We finished up and was heading to the buffet when Charlie caught up with Namjoon and I. "Hey A! We're planning on going to the local theater to check what's showing, do you guys want to join?" She asked.
"I'm actually going to rest for a bit after eating since I drove going here and for me to have enough energy to go to the club later tonight." I replied.
"How about you Namjoon, do you want to come with?"
"Would it be okay if I take a pass today? I want to explore the area by myself first and then perhaps continue on tomorrow with the group?" He said, looking like he was asking his parents' permission to go out of the house.
"You can go and do what you want Joonie, on one condition. Please text me every now and then as to where you are. And if in any case that you get into something, you call me right away. Do you have Pdogg's number? So that you can also message him in case."
