Before you start reading, I just wanted to give a quick…”warning”. There is a very brief mention of Jonghyun at the end. As we are all still coping, I thought it wouldn't be right to to have it sprung on you.

 

Please enjoy and forgive me for any mistakes I didn't catch.





 

"1.2.3. tap. 1.2. tap. Tap."




 

The young girl looked at herself in the mirror, anxiety clear on her face. Her pearl white princess dress stopped just below her knees, which were covered in matching stockings. Her hands played with the hem of her dress as her pearl aqua tap shoes echoed through the hall.

 

"You can do it." She told herself. She was only five years old and she was about to perform in front of 65,000 people. Not only that, she was in a foreign country. The pressure was on.

 

“Are you ready?” The young girl jumped, panic on her face. Your heart dropped at the sight. Your little girl was about to have a mental breakdown.
