Where are You?

Miss X

Although he still couldn’t finish the song, tonight he goes to the subway. Now he has 2 reason to go to the subway station, the other reason is her. Strangely after couldn’t meet her for over 2 weeks, he miss her. Now, he sit on the same bench and waiting for her,
“Usually she’ll come at this time,” he said while looking at his watch, “why she still doesn’t come,” he said, he’s still waiting for her until the last train come. He stand from his seat and leave the station with a bitter face, “ah..where is she?, is she mad at me because I didn’t show up for this past week?,” he the take his phone, “ah..why I didn’t ask her number, now I can’t contact her,” he said then put it back in his pocket.
When he arrived at his house, someone is there in kitchen cooking something,
“What are you doing there?,” he asked to his cousin who busy making something,
“You don’t have anything in your refrigerator, only this kimchi and eggs. Are you sure you are a rich song writer?,” he’s saying while pointing at kimchi box and egg ,
“Then I do have something in my refrigerator, kimchi and eggs. And, you..live in this house for years, as you know this house not that cheap, boy. So, shut up and eat your ramyon,” he look angry at his joke, it’s not exactly because of what he said, Sungjae getting angry about something else,
“Hey, what’s wrong with you hyung?,” he asked, but then he close his room door, “ah..I want to ask him something though,” he said.
On the middle of the night, Eunwoo still in the living room, watching something, Sungjae come out from his room to make coffee, but then he get surprised by his own cousin,
“Hey, what are you doing in the middle of the night?, sleep..,” he said then straight to kitchen, Eunwoo following him, “go to your room and sleep,”he said once again.
“Hyung, can I ask for your help?,” he is pledding, “I need your help,” he said.
“I’m busy right now,” he said,
“It’s not something you must do now, you can do it tomorrow,” he said, then Sungjae turn his face to him, “next week is her birthday, I want to give her something she likes,” he said.
“Ah..that girl, Sooyoung?. Then, why you need my help?, ahh..you need my money?,” he asked, 
“You still remember her name?. Ah, it’s not your money, but your friend, melody band,” he said, Sungjae look confused, “she said, she really like melody band, I want to give her their sign CD, and to get that I need your help,” he explained to him, he just nodding,
“Ah, sign CD?, then just come to their fan sign tomorrow,” he said calmly,
“Ah hyung…,” he is whining, “she really want to have it, so I want to give it to her on her birthday.”
“Then show her that you are trying hard to get her favourite band’s sign CD by coming to their fan sign, don’t take an easy path like this,” he said then bring his cup, “this hyung is really busy, so do the melody band members. I don’t know if I can meet them at agency tomorrow,” he said then leave him,
“It’s just an easy favor, why you won’t do it?,” he asked.
“Then, do it by yourself if it’s an easy favor,” he said then close the door. 
“Ah..this hyung really,” he look mad.

He come to the agency, when he unpacking his things from the bag, he take out a CD, melody band new album CD,
“Ah, Cha Eunwoo,” he said then put it on the table, then he heard someone opening the recording room door, “good morning,” he said knowing who is coming, “we’ll start recording in 15 minutes, get ready,” he said, Hyomin just smiling and starting warming up while Sungjae preparing for the recording,
“I hope we’ll finish faster than yesterday,” she said before start recording,
“Then, do the best,” Sungjae said.
“After this, let’s have lunch,” she said.
“Why you always ask me to have lunch or dinner with you?,” he asked.
“Then, should I ask something else to you?, like let’s go to the club or let’s go…,” but he stop her,
“Let’s start now,” he said, they start recording the song, part 2. 
The recording finish in 4 hour, at that time, someone come in to the recording room, someone from melody band. When he see Hyomin there, he look little bit surprised,
“Why you look surprised, I told you that I’m recording her new song,” he said, Minhyuk who come there to give Sungjae something, “what is that?,” he asked when he saw paper bag that Minhyuk bring,
“Ah, mom just sent us delicious kimchi that you really like, she want me to give to you too,” he said then place it on the table, then he saw the CD, “you collected our album CD?,” he asked.
“Ah, my cousin want you guys to sign it,” he said then give the CD to Minhyuk, “tell everyone to sign it,” he said.
“He is our fan?, Eunwoo?,” he asked, he look disbelief,
“Not him, but his crush, he want to give that to his crush,” he said, Minhyuk smiling and take the CD,
“Then tell him to come to our fan meeting tonight,” he give him advice,
“I told him that, but he want to take an easy path. Just sign it, special treatment for your song writer’s cousin,” he said, Minhyuk just nodding and leave them,
“Thank you for today, and sorry I can’t join your lunch, so, have a good lunch,” he said to Hyomin then back to his work,
“Why you always rejected me?,” she asked, Sungjae laugh at that,
“Rejected you?, I I just avoiding to have a long talk with Mr. CEO. I’ll join if the other staff who participated in your song are going too, if it’s just you, your manager, and me, I won’t go,” he is trying to explain to her, then she leave him, looking upset.
He leave the agency when dinner time, he meet melody band members in agency lobby, they just come from fan meeting,
“Hey, our signed CD,” Minhyuk said then give the signed CD to him.
“Thank you, I’ll buy you something,” he said then put it in the bag.
“Just let him to meet us, your cousin, ” Ilhoon said,
“He isn’t your fan, his crush is the one,” Sungjae said, “then, I’ll go home first,” he said.
“It’s still 7 Pm though, let’s have dinner, treat us,” Penniel said.
“I’ll treat you, but not today. Today, I want to meet someone, if I come earlier than before, maybe I can meet her, then, bye,” he said then waving his hand to his friends.
“Ah..he want to meet that girl, the station girl,” Hyunsik remember Sungjae’s story about a girl who he meet at station.
“That high school student?, does he fall for her?,” Peniel asked but there is no one who answer that.
Sungjae already there, waiting for someone. He keep looking around, but she still doesn’t come,
“Are you busy nowdays?, I want you to see this though,” he said while looking at music book that he brought, then he open that book, “why she didn’t write her name on this precious book?, if someone stole it from her, she couldn’t claim that it’s her,” there, in the book, there are 3 songs that she wrote and the fourth song is the song that Sungjae gonna complete, he start working on it, but he keep hesitating to write another line, “just come tonight, I think I’ll get more inspiration if you come, ” he said, then suddenly his stomach growling, “aish, I’m hungry,” he is looking around and buy some sandwich, while he is eating his food, he keep looking at the place where he always meet Miss X, “at least let me know your number so I can call you when I complete this,” he said, but then, “ah, I’m the one who said to you that I only interested in your voice, I shouldn’t have say that,” he said, then looking at his watch, “let’s go home now, Sungjae-yah,” he said to himself then leaving the station with the next train.
When he arrived at his house, there is no one there, he place the signed CD on Eunwoo’s table. Then writing a note for him, 
Treat me..and don’t ask me to do anything again..
He is working hard on Hyomin’s song. He finished everything in one day and give the file to the staff,
“Ah, Hyomin-ie said that you must come to the staff dinner, she’ll contact you where and when,” one of the staff said, “hey, I think she is trying to get closer to you,” she is whispering to him. She is older than Sungjae, they know each other since he come to this agency, “do you have girlfriend?, I’m sure that she really like you.”
“I want to have one, but I couldn’t,” he said jokingly, “but, she isn’t my type. If something happen between us, I’ll be dead on that CEO’s hands,” both of them laughing together.  He got messege from Eunwoo,
Hyung, thank you…I love you.
Ah, mom will come this weekend, and..
She’ll bring a nice food for us, considere that as my treat…

“That’s your mom’s treat, not your treat,” he said then put his phone back, “today, will you be there?,” he asked to himself, “if I say, I miss you, then will you come?,” on his way to station he keep blaberring like that.
While in a room of a hospital, Eunwoo reading something for someone, someone who is lying down there since months ago, after an accident, 
“Ah, I get you a signed CD, I’ll bring it tomorrow, ” he said, “I told you, right?. Our hyung is working there as a song writer, he get that for me. Later you must greet him,” he said, “I’ll go now, your mom come,” he said right after someone open the door, her mother come, “ahjumma, I’ll go home now, ” he said then bowing.
“Thank you for coming, get enough rest, you don’t need to come tomorrow,” she said, “bring this, I made this. Not that much, but it’s really delicious,” she give him a box with food inside it,
“I’ll come tomorrow, and thank you for the food,” he said then smiling. He always there since his crush have an accident a year ago, even though she couldn’t answer what he asked, but he always there.
Sungjae still at station, he keep looking at his watch,
“Where are you?,” he asked, then he saw her dad, he know that’s her dad, but he keep hesitating, “I don’t even know her name, how can I ask her dad about her?,” he said then decided to leave station when the next train come, he decided to get in.
He meet Eunwoo in front of his apartement, Eunwoo waving his hand to him, look happy,
“I’m very happy because of you,” he said, when he is about to hug Sungjae, he avoid him, “Hyung,” he said, but Sungjae doesn’t look at him, and entering his house password, “what’s wrong with you hyung?,” he asked, because Sungjae look in bad mood, “hyung,” he keep calling him, Sungjae turn his face,
“Don’t disturb me, I have done what you want, now I want to get enough sleep, so..don’t disturb me,” he said, opening the door,
“I have something to eat, Sooyoung’s mom made this, let’s eat together,” he said while showing what he brought, “before sleep, at least let’s eat,” he said then walking to the kitchen,
“What is that?,” Sungjae asked look interested in the food, “but..your friend, Sooyoung-ie, did you ever told me something about her  before?like her father or something like that,” he suddenly asking about Sooyong,
“About her? I did, yesterday, that she like melody band,” he said while plating the food,
“Not that one, ” Sungjae said, Eunwoo look confused,
“I never told you about her beside about her favourite band,” he said, “why are you asking about it?.”
“It’s just I feel that name really familiar, so I thought you ever told me everything about her,” he said.
“Maybe you know another Sooyoung, not my Sooyoung,” he said then give him a plate of spicy chicken that made by Sooyoung’s mother. Sungjae then bring the rice and kimchi,
“My Sooyoung?, you call her that?, why?,” he asked.
“Because she’s my Sooyoung,” he said then start eating, but then Sungjae hit his head, “ah, why??, it’s hurt,” he said then put down his copstick, looking mad.
“Stop it,” he said then start eating.
