My Idol

The day:

"Jamjam!~" JM hugged his dog as it wagged its tail with excitement to see its owner.

"Thank you, Dad. Do you want to come in?" JM asked his father.

"No, it's okay. I know you're busy, and I have some business to attend to. Take care," his dad replied, giving him a hug.

"Okay, Dad. Take care," JM said as his father left.

"Jamjam, do you want to come with me?" JM asked his dog, which barked in agreement.

"Okay, but you need to behave, okay?" he continued, and his dog barked again. JM smiled. "Okay, let's just wait, Mr. Lee, my manager. Alright?"

He signaled to his dog to explore the room, and it happily complied. JM was overjoyed to see his dog.

Then, they went to JYP's studio. He was early, so he sat down in the waiting room with Mr. Lee.

"Wow, your dog is really cute. Can I call him Jamjam?" Mr. Lee asked while petting Jamjam.

"Of course, you can. But don't call him JJ. That means you're angry. I call him that only when I'm upset," JM explained.

"And what's his reaction if you call him that?" Mr. Lee inquired.

"Well, he obeys, and I know he understands I'm not angry anymore when I call him Jam," JM answered.

"Oh, so you trained this dog?" Mr. Lee asked.

"Yes, it was a gift from my parents when he was just a few months old. I was around 16 or 17, I guess," JM said.

Someone came in, and it was Sana.

"Oh, hello," Sana greeted, and they greeted back.

"I heard that you're here now. PDnim will be here in an hour because he's doing something. Maybe you guys want to eat first?" Sana suggested.

"Oh no, I already ate. But, Mr. Lee, you can eat. I'll be okay here," JM said.

"Okay then. This is JYP's building, so I know you'll be safe here. Just call me if something happens. I'm hungry anyway," Mr. Lee said, standing up. He handed Jamjam back to JM.

JM nodded, and his manager left, knowing where to find JYP's organic foods.

"Is that your dog?" Sana asked as she sat in front of JM. She looked at Jamjam first upon entering.

"Ah yes, he's my dog. His name is Jamjam," JM said.

"Cute~ Can I?" Sana asked to hold and touch Jamjam.

"Oh okay. Jamjam, don't be afraid of her, okay?" JM said to his dog, and it wagged its tail. He handed Jamjam to Sana, and it happily greeted her.

"I never knew you had a dog. Do Chinese people love dogs? Because Tzuyu loves dogs too," Sana said while admiring Jamjam's cuteness.

"Maybe," JM chuckled.

"Since PDnim will not be here yet, can I introduce you to my members?" Sana asked, and JM was already fanboying inside.

"You mean all of them?" JM nervously asked.

Sana nodded and giggled. "Why?" she asked.

"Oh, nothing. It's just that you're TWICE, and I'm a ONCE," he said, making Sana shocked, but she smiled.

"Oh, that's okay. My members want to know you, though. So shall we? They are in the practice room," Sana said, returning Jamjam to JM.

"Okay then," JM said, and Sana smiled. They both stood up and went to the practice room, greeting some staff and passing idols.
