The Concert

Unexpected

The wind was too strong when she walked out the door with the other passengers. She pull her coat around her thin body, trying to make herself warm before take out her phone when she heard it ringing. Pulling down her black mask after saw the caller. "just arrived, i'll go there as soon as i found soojung, mm.. okay,". she put her phone back into her coat and look around. The airport doesn't look that full when she passed the exit gate. Trying to look around once again to find the girl that supposed to pick her up now. She was about to take out her phone to call that girl before she found a girl taller than her and covered up in a brown coat running towards her. 

"aww come on, i'm not that late eonnie,", she clings to her right when she stand beside her, make her frown slowly turned into a smile as she look up at the girl. "i miss you soojungie.. ", her smile grow wide as she hugs the tall girl. "aah who told you to be soooooooo busy in korea." soojung leans back and pinches her cheeks as she saw her frown. "ssshhh i come here to meet you now so it should make up my absence right?", she pull up her mask again. "tch, liar, you come to see SHINee, not me." 
she laugh as she drag her to the taxi before reply "you know we both came to see them anyway,".

Smiling to herself, she take out her phone again and try to find some news of the idols, listening to her friend babbling about how she wake up early to lining up to get the merch for her. "you should buy me food after this eonnie, ah hold on, are you going back tonight or tomorrow morning?". she turn to look at her before  look inside her bag to see the ticket. 


"i'll go back with the last flight today, let's eat after this with the other girls.". soojung snatch her ticket and saw the time before put it back to her friend's bag as she nag her again that she should've stay and going back to korea the next morning. She has work the next day so she need to go home as soon as possible.

"we still got 30 minutes right? i'm so hungry i haven't eat anything since i wake up." she rub her tummy after put her phone back into her bag. "it's an hour actually, we can eat some food near the venue now." soojung told the driver to drop us at the fast food area near the venue of the concert before pay him. she get out of the car before walk to the taller girl as she looks around. "the others are in?" she open the door allowing herself and the taller girl beside her to get inside. 


"yeah, i think they're already on their seat. most of them thinking you won't come though, it's the last day." she smile as she leans to the counter and looking at the menu. "well, surprise, it's their first dome who am i to missed their concert soojung-ah. i need this too." soojung choose the menu for me before grin as she wait for me to pay for the food. "yeah yeah, i'm surprised your manager doesn't even know about this eonnie, how you hide this all from him though?" she just offer her a big smile to answer the question, waiting for the staff to prepare the food for them.

"Junhee-ah!!" she turn around when she heard someone called her name. Smiling to the girl that walk toward her and sit beside her, squished her thin figure in her arms immediately. "oh my god you're so thin, what is this!! i didn't left you in korea to become like this you know!!". Junhee just smile and continue eating before shakes my head. 
"eonnie.. i'm here too.." the girl look at soojung before pinch her chin, "we lined up for the merch together this morning baby, and you're this tall, i know you're right here in front of me." soojung showing her cute eyesmile as she heard her friend. 
"So, tell me what is the excuse this time?", Junhee stuffed with fries again before grab her cola. Looking at her friend, "it's my day off, nobody knows i'm here except my parents. Well, i told the member that i'm going home today.", her smile grow wide making her friends shakes their head. Soojung began to take out her stuff and place it on the table in front of her. Junhee's eyes move to the merch immediately, make her pushed away the tray to her friend. Soojung closed her eyes preparing for the scream. 


"Aaaackkk... this is sooo cute!! omg soojung baby you're the best!!!" she takes the strap with the mini tag of her idols making her friends smiles with her. "i know right!!! i got taemin's strap too eonnie!" Soojung nodded proudly before takes out her taemin's strap and hold it up beside her cheeks, rubbing  the hair of the mini doll.

They spend a few more minutes to spazz over the merch that soojung bought for her.  Junhee look out the window, her eyes Glued to the venue. It's SHINee's first solo dome concert. She has been waiting for this moment to come since they announced this concert at their recent arena tour. She can't believe herself when the three girls walk to the entrance, doesn't missed the chance to snapped several pictures of her and her friends in front of the big Tokyo Dome sign. It's finally happening. They finally having their solo concert at Tokyo Dome. 

Junhee became a fan since their second album. Even though she doesn't follow them since their very first stage, she always try to come to their concert at least once in every season. Despite her busy schedule as a girlgroup member, she always try to find time to go and see her idols, covered up, of course. there are only a few shawol that know that she's one of them too. Most of them are japanese since she can't really come to their korean schedule sometimes. Thankfully her japanese friends agreed to keep her appearance as a secret at most of shinee's concert in japan, and most of them doesn't know that she's one of the rising girl group in korea anyway. 

She can't come to their Japan arena tour this year because of her comeback and she just finished up their last schedule for this comeback last night. So she booked a flight to japan right away. She asked Soojung to get the ticket for her as well. Even if she can't go in the end, at least she prepared the ticket first. Soojung fly to Japan two days ago, she attend the first day too.

She's so lucky that she has Soojung and Hana that always help her to get their tickets and merch since she can't come early, just like today. She arrived in japan just two hour before the concert start. She use Hana's address to everything related to the japanese fanclub. yeah she registered at their japanese official fanclub. It's her 3rd year to work in the same industry with her idols. but nobody knows about her secret desire for the famous group. She never mention anything about her being the fangirl that always come to their concert everytime she can. Even her members doesn't know about this. Well, they just know that she likes their songs and she only have shinee albums on her phone's playlist. But they never really talk about it on broadcast.

Her parents know about her love for SHINee and they doesn't really mind about it since her mom is also love the boys, not as much as her but love them enough to play their music at home while waiting her husband to come home. 

Junhee put her bags under her seat after take out her new lightsticks. She sat between her friends after greet a few friends near her. The concert finally start right after she turn off her phone. She scream loudly with the other fans when her idols finally come out with their first song. It's been a while since she come to SHINee's concert. She missed this. It's her healing to scream for her idols with people that love the same person with her. SHINee helped her to achieved her dream to be a girlgroup. They always there when everything got hard for her. Not physically but with their songs. She always listen to them all the time. It's always comfort her. 

It's her time for  releasing all the stress for the past few weeks around her comeback and for charging her love for the boys. It's gonna be a while again until they have another concert so she takes out all of her love for the boys, screaming loudly, cheering for them and singing along with the boys and the fans, even crying with them at the end of the concert.

"eonnie you haven't turn on your phone? your mom asked me when will you come home." Soojung show her the message from her mom. "ah, i forgot. i told mom i'll go straight home after the concert." she takes out her phone and send her the picture of them. The concert ended an hour agoand they're eating dinner near the airport right now. Talking about the concert again and spazzing about the members. Junhee laughs looking at her mother's message. "ahah mom told me to take her along next time.". her friends laughing along with her. 


"Yah!! what are you doing to your mom, she gonna be a real shawol soon." She finished her cola and put her phone on the table. "mom have been asking me to take her to shinee's concert these days,".
"ah i'm gonna sleep at the plane later, i'm so tired, my voice is gone now.". Junhee rubs before drink her friend's juice. 

"it's good that your comeback is done now. Your manager will scold you for sure.", Soojung leans her head on the table looking at the girls in front of her. "but i think my manager starting to get suspicious about me, now. He asked if i really going home today, last night." junhee plays with her new jonghyun strap from the concert.
"really? is it bad if he knows though?" Hana grab her cola before drink that.
"well.. it's not really bad though, he will just tease me a lot about that later if he find out." she laugh at herself. Her phone ringing again reminding her about the flight in a hour. She pouted knowing that she need to go back to her daily life without seeing the boys again. The thought soon disappeared from her mind when she remember that she has 2 more free days. Her eyes burying holes on her phone, annoyed at the fact that she will be separate again with her friends. 

"eonnie don't go.. just go home tomorrow, with me." Soojung pouted with her as she clings to her bag. "come to my place when you arrived tomorrow then." Junhee gather her things. "you guys won't invite me? tch.." Hana pouts along with the tall girl. Junhee put the bag back on the table before wraps her arms around her. When will you come to korea again?"


"mmmm if shinee comeback maybe," she smile before let her friend go. "come on, i bring my car today," Hana get up before the others before Soojung get up as well. "aaah i don't wanna go hooome... " Junhee get up and follow her friends behind them.

She love japan, sometimes she want to stay here with her friends because these days SHINee has a lot activities here. Yeah, most of her dreams is because of her idols. She met them few times at dream concert of music program when they comeback at the same time. Her group isn't that famous yet even if it's her 3rd year in the industry. Some people still not recognize her outside with her bare face.

Junhee get in the car and they playing shinee's songs along the way to the airport. She was going to drink but she remember that she'll be home in a few hours and it's not gonna be good if she come home drunk. Her friends drop her at the airport and tell her to come back soon to meet them. Hana is staying in japan since she's working here, and she's japanese anyway. Soojung is her shawol sister, she met her at shinee's first concert in japan long time ago. They have been friends since then. She's two years younger than her and working as a translator at a magazine company in korea. She will be back with the first flight tomorrow. 
"i'm gonna miss you hana.. come to see us soon okay," Hana rub her back when she hug her friends before walk inside.

"call when you arrive later okay." she turn around and nodded as she waves towards her friends.

And it's ended. her idol's concert just ended and she will be back to her life as a girl group member when she got back to korea.
