Book 2: Guardian - Choi San

Part 1

San was backstage, the sound staff checking his mic for the last time before he took to the stage.

When he stepped on stage and the crowd went wild, he greeted everyone and then proceeded to perform his first song.

From time to time he would stop dancing and just walk around on stage and sing so he could interact with his fans more.

As the concert went on he performed every song with all he had, and when he sang the one ballad that he had on the tracklist he walked off stage and walked along the barricade, he took selfies with fan's phones or sang into their cameras.

As he walked he saw a little boy holding onto a slightly older boy next to him.

The older boy looked surprised and starstruck, something about the boy caught San's attention and he wasn't sure what it was exactly.

He stood there for a few seconds just looking at the boy before he moved on and went back to the stage.

He finished off the song and went backstage to get ready for the next stage.

But even when getting dressed he was still in a daze, the boy's eyes played over and over in his mind, something about his eyes, they looked sparkly but somewhat empty at the same time, it confused San a lot but also made him worry a little.

The last few stages while he performed he couldn't help but look at the two boys every now and then, he almost laughed a few times by the older boys expression, San couldn't help but smile when he saw him, the utter amazement on his face was really something.

When the show came to an end San thanked everyone who came out for the concert and thanked everyone for supporting him telling them he wouldn't be there if it wasn't for them.

Once he got off the stage he headed to his dressing room and got changed out of his concert clothes.

Tonight was his last show and they would be heading back to Seoul the next day so he had some free time to explore the city while he still could.

He went to a nearby cafe and got a drink before proceeding to walk around and take everything in, he somehow ended up on a beach and he just sat there watching the stars.

All the stress he had from Preparing the perfect performances quickly washed away. San loved watching the stars, it helped him relax, and sometimes he would confine himself in the stars when he was worried that he couldn't talk to his friends about since they all had jobs that required a lot from them he didn't really want to be a burden to them.

He eventually returned to the hotel they were staying at and washed up before ordering dinner from room service.

He ate and then laid on his bed, he played on his phone for a bit and responded to some texts he got from his friends before he turned in for the night.

On the other hand, in the same city, a young boy laid in his bed images from the concert replaying in his head.

He didn't even know who the singer was, all he knew was his little brother loved him a lot and he was happy he decided to accompany his brother to the concert.

He never had any interest in music or well any interests in anything at all but somehow every time he closed his eyes he would wonder what it would be like to stand on stage.

He wondered what it would be like if he could perform with the singer he saw tonight.

He slapped himself lightly trying to snap himself out of his delusional state.

He knew it wouldn't happen, he had no skills anyway so he had no hope of ever stepping on stage.

He couldn't sleep that night, no matter how much he tried the concert kept replaying and he felt like he was going crazy.

"Jun pull yourself together man" He whispered to himself so he wouldn't wake his brother who was in the bunk below him.

He let out a sigh and got out of bed and sat down at his desk, he looked over to his brother's desk and saw a magazine with the singer from the concert on it.

"A small peek won't hurt" He mumbled and pulled it closer.

He started reading it, the magazine had multiple idols in it, some just fashion photoshoot others were interviews and then he got to the middle spread and he let out a small wow

"Huh, so your name is Choi San? Hmm interesting" He mumbled and continued to read the rest of the spread.

The further he got into the magazine the more his eyes kept closing until he eventually fell asleep.
