Today was the big day. Your very first day at Bighit. You were so excited you even barely slept! Taking a sip of your bitter Starbucks dark roast, you looked up at the large glass building. Cmon y/n. You can do this. Fighting! You took a deep breath and walked through the double doors. 

You were greeted by  a grand lobby. Everything from the modern chandeliers, indoor fountain, couches, and posters on the walls looked expensive. Of course this was to be expected of the biggest Korean agency of 2025. You looked around at other staff walking by, most dressed in suits while trainees looked like supermodels in just sweatpants. You looked down at your plain white t-shirt and beige dress pants, now feeling self-conscious. Should you have put on heavy makeup today?

But before you could dwell on it much more a women at the front desk spoke, "Excuse me, may I help you?"  She had chin length light-brown hair and unrealistically green eyes. How does their front desk lady even look like a model?! 

"Ah yes" you responded "manager....Kang?"

"Oh, you must be the new photographer. Manager Kang should be here anytime no-"

"Ms.y/n?" You turned to see a relatively decent looking man. Probably in his mid-thirties,  dressed in a t-shirt and blazer.

"Y-yes?" You responded shyly.

A bit too enthusiastically, he ran up to you shaking your hand, "It's so very nice to meet you! I'm manager Kang!"

"Nice t-to meet you t-too" You responded meekly. Truthfully you were a bit intimidated and nervous. After all, this was the first time you'd worked in such a professional setting abroad. You were way more used to things like this back in your home country. Even so, deals you got with companies weren't nearly as big as the one you're about to do.

"Come follow me. Our artist is still changing but we can start heading to the meeting room now."

After about 30 minutes of him talking way too much while y'all walked at a ridiculously slow pace through the building, you finally arrived at the meeting room. Hmph, quite a sneaky way to hide that your artist is late. But whatever, it's Bighit you reminded yourself, THE Bighit Ent. As you sat down in the plastic chair, your heart began to quicken. Ahhh, which group will you meet? Which Bighit label? Which star chose you? 

Suddenly you heard voices and footsteps  down the from the hallway. Straightening your shirt you stood up, ready to greet them. Ready for your life to change. But little did you know quite how much it would change. For when the door cracked open, you saw it. You saw that same face, those same eyes, and that same expression you used to find so lovely.

"I promise, no matter what, I'll love and cherish you y/n" 

"Even after I-land? Even if you debut?" You had asked him, teary eyed.

" Of course" he pulled you into a hug "I said no matter what."

You smiled to yourself, the memory of the last time you'd seen Heeseung in person etched in your heart. Wow, to think you had gone nearly 4 months without him, only seeing his cute face on tv screens. You were so excited to finally see it in person and be in that warm embrace once again.  So much so that you couldn't wait, you had to surprise him. Walking out of the airport terminal, you took out your phone, feeling fuzzy inside when you saw his notification.
