No One POV.

 

“Hyomi ahh! B2ST just won last night” Hannah squealed.

Hyomi put a poker face on her face like she’s not interested. Hannah nudged her arm.

“yah! Why are u not responding ?  I know u are fangirling inside right ?” hannah keep on nudging her arm.

“stop it hannah,” hyomi muttered. “why ?” hannah tilt her head. Hyomi turn to face hannah.

“it’s because they’ll only care and thankful to their korean b2uty” hyomi said still with a poker face on her face.

“...what ? But u are korean b2uty” hannah still can’t get hyomi’s point.

“yeah. I am. But before this, i’m just an international b2uty who never got their attention.” she said. Hanna end up laughing.

“ oh gosh. Hyomi... U are so cute. U are acting like they are your boyfriends. Chill out girl. They’re just idol.” hannah pat hyomi’s shoulder.

“ you said that just because you never experienced being an international b2uty.” hyomi said calmly before she left hannah alone in the class.

 

Hyomi’s POV

 

I ran to the rooftop. I know i’m stupid. Being jealous with no reason over an idol, like they’re my boyfriends.

But-- i can’t help it. I am korean. But i used to live in Singapore since i’m 2 years old.

And now, i’m already 21 years old in korean age, i further my studies here.. In my hometown.

Being an international fans is so hard. U can’t communicate well with them. Its so hurtful like being in a long distance relationship.

I chuckled. “Silly me. Why do i feel jealous ? It’ not like they’re my boyfriends. Maybe i should apologize to hannah” i thought a i ran down to the class. But hannah is not there. So, i just send her a text.

 

To ; Bestie Hannah

“sorry bout just now, i’m being too emotional. Maybe bcuz i’m in my period. Haha. Again, sorry :( i mean it.”

 

I send to her. Maybe i shouldn’t think a lot bout this and just focus to my studies.

I walked to a convenience store just to buy some drinks as i don’t know why i felt sooo thirsty.

I was looking at the fridge trying to find my favourite strawberry drink until i bumped into something-- or specifically someone.

I bowed a little as i apologize although its not my mistake. But he just walked away like that. No apologize.

I cursed him a little silently in my mind. I grab my drink and walk to the cashier to pay for it.

But then i saw that same guy still wondering around in the store like he’s lost. Being so curious, so i walked to him.

 

“excuse me ? “ i try to get his attention. He turn to face me. “are u lost or something ?” i asked.

He just shook his head and turn back facing me. “o...kay” i said blankly as i turn to walk away.

“oh.. Maybe...” i heard his voice so i turn to him. He was looking at me but his face is covered with face mask and

his hoodies is covering almost his entire face. “Maybe.. ?” i asked curiously. “maybe.. Can i borrow your money ? I lost my wallet”

he asked. I looked at him. Well, maybe he’s not a bad guy. So, hesitantly, i pull out my wallet and hand him some notes.

He took it and walk to the cashier to pay his things. I was about to curse him again as he didn’t even bother to thank me when

he thanked me and promise to pay me back later. “pay me back ? How ?” i asked. “maybe u can give me your number” he asked.

I was stunned by his words. “i don’ give my number easily to stranger” i said. There was a moment of silence.

“u don’t have to pay me” i said as i broke the silence. He look at me. Well. I don’t know if he’s looking at me

cuz i can’t see his eyes. “just thought it as a good deed.”i chuckled lightly. “really ? Is it okay with u ?” he asked.

I nodded. “...thank you then. Maybe i’ll repay u if i ever met u again” he said. “okay, i got to go. It’s getting late.

Mom gonna babble me the whole night later” i said as i bowed to him again before i walk away.

 

 

/the next day/

 

I walked into the lecture hall as i noticed hannah. I walked to her and backhug her.

I noticed she flinch because of the sudden skinship. “i’m sorry” i said as i lean my head on her shoulder.

“you should” she replied as she ignore me. “hannaaaaah” i poked her waist until she burst into laugh.

“oky.. Okay. Fine, i forgive u. But only this time” she pouted. “i promise” i said as i poke her cheeks and walk to my seat.

I gave all my attention to the lecturer in front until i felt a vibration from my phone. I peeked.

 

From; Bestie Hannah

Let’s go to inkigayo tonight ? I really wanna watch beast live so badly T^T

 

I smiled.

 

To : Bestie Hannah

Sorry, i have planned with my mom.

 

From; Bestie Hannah

Awww :( it’s okay. Maybe i’ll just go alone. But if u change your mind, text me ;)

 

To ; Bestie Hannah

Sure. Have fun ^^

 

I shift my attention back to the class.

 

The class end, and i packed my things. “hyomi, don’t forget” hannah remind me.

“okay. I get it. I will text u if i change my mind” i said as i smiled to her and walk away.

I walked pass the convenience store as i remember that guy from last night. “is he here ?” i thought.

I walk into the store and took a look around. “nah, he’s not here”i whispered. I took my fav strawberry drink and

pay it as i walk to the seat in the store. I drank as i thought bout him. “oh wait-- did i just thought out him.

Am i missing him ? I just met him last night. Why should i miss him ? Hyomi, u are mentally sicked.” i shrugged the thought away. 

I walked to my home. “ mom, ur princess is back” i said as i giggled.

“aw, hyomi, bout our plan to bake cakes, i think we need to cancel it. My boss just called me for an urgent meeting” she said

as she looked very sorry. “nah, it’s fine. I’ll just bake it alone.” i said as i put a smile on my face.

“And i may be away for 2 days. Idk. I’ll text u if it is confirm already” mom said.

Again, i put on a smile and said its okay. As soon i said it, she hugged me and rush out.

“i guess, it’s very important” i whispered. I shrugged as i walk to my room and changed to casual clothes.

I sighed as i felt lonely but i quickly pushed that feelings away and start to bake the cake.

After almost an hour, i finish my cake. I put it on the dining table as i stare at the cake blankly.

“what should i do with this ?” i whispered silently. I looked at the clock. It’s almost 6.30pm.

Should I accompany hannah to inkigayo ? I sighed as i packed the cake in a box. I went to change and i put on a dress.

 

To : Hannah

Plan changed. I’m going. I’ll wait for u at the entrance.

 

So, i took the cake and went out. “i just wish i can have a normal family.

A mom who’s care for me. A dad..... Yeah i want a dad. I want a complete family.” i whispered as i walk.

Yeah.. I lost my dad since i’m a kid. I sighed heavily as i lost in my thought. “what’s with the sigh, pretty girl ?” i looked up

as i saw a bunch of retarded (well, bad guy xD) in front of me. I tried to ignore them and walk pass them

but they blocked my way. “ what do u want ?” i said coldly. “i love it when u play hard to catch” one of them said

as he trail my hair. I flinched. “do u need oppa’s company ?” he said as he smirked at me. “no. Go away.” i said

as i pushed him away. “ohhhh. U wanna play hard ?” another one said as he pulled me my hand, made me fall.

I looked at the box i’ve been holding on. It have become dented. I glared at them. “ohh. U’re mad ?” they mocked me.

I closed my eyes as they approach me but then i heard they’re groaning in pain. I’m so afraid that i don’t dare to open my eyes until....

 

 

 

 

 

 

“u are safe now”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That voice.

 

 

 

 

 

It’s him. So i open my eyes. It is him. With the same hoodie and face mask.

 

I looked at him blankly as he kneel in front of me. “are you okay ?” he asked.

I didn’t answer his question as i burst into tears. Idk why am i crying in front of that guy whom i just met once.

I’m not someone who’s cry easily. I saw him, hesitate to hug me. So, i just wept my tears and smile at him.

“i’m okay” i said as i sniffed. “then why did u cry ?” he asked innocently. I can see his innocence in his eyes.

“it’s just.... My cake... I thought i wanna give it to my friend so she can taste my cake. It’s my first time baking” i lied.

No. I’m not crying for that cake. Ofc no. I’m crying because i’m scared. But i can’t admit im scared right ?

What if he’s trying to take advantages to the weak me. He looked at the dented box and pull it to him.

He open it and yeah my rainbow cake is ruined almost 50%. “it still can be eaten” he said as he eyed the cake.

“no.. It’s ruined. Don’t eat it. I’m gonna throw it anyway.” i said. I was about to pick the box when he snatch it and eat it.

I can’t see his entire face as it was covered with his hoodies.

 

I saw his lips. Chewing the cake.

 

 

 

 

 

His lips...

 

 

 

 

His lips.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

HIS LIPS!

 

 

 

 

I was too into his lips when i saw him covered his face with his face make. I was frustrated cuz i can’t see his face.

He looked back at me. “it’s delicious. U should bake more” he said as i can see his smile.

“why....why.. Did u eat it ?’ i asked as i stare at him. “it would be a waste: he said as he throw the box into the bin.

I just stare at him blankly, not knowing what to say. “so..... What are u doing here ?” i asked him. “i am just nearby when i saw u. Oh wait, u still remember me right ?” he asked. I nodded.

“yeah, the weird guy in the store whom have no money to pay for his coffee” i said as i chuckled.

He chuckled too at my words. “so what are u doing here ? U know it’s dangerous to walk by urself at this hour” he said concernly.

“ah i almost forget. I promised my friend to accompany her to watch inkigayo” i said as i look at my watch.

Almost 7pm. I quickly took out my phone and text hannah.

 

To : hannah

I’ll be there in a minute or more. Hahaha. Sorry. Something occurred.

 

after a while i received her reply.

 

From : hannah

Are u ok ? It’s okay. I haven’t left my home yet. Be safe :)

 

To : hannah

Yeah. Sure :) u too.

 

I looked up to find him beside me. I moved away a little bcuz we are too close.

“i gtg. My friend is on her way” i said as i about to leave.

“wait.. How bout i accompany u ? It’s dangerous for a girl to walk alone” he said while catching up with my speed.

I looked at him and just nod. So, we walk silently until he broke the silence.

“so.. Why do u wanna watch inkigayo live?” he asked. “ no particular reason.” i answered him nonchalantly.

He chuckled. “there must be a reason for u to go out at night just to watch it live.. U can watch it on tv” he said” my friends asked me to accompany her “ i said. “no bias group ?” he asked. “beast” i mumbled. “pardon ?” he looked at me.

“ no one. I’m not into kpop” i lied again. He just nod. We are at the entrance already.

“i’ll be at that cafe. I’m not into kpop too so i better wait there” he said as he point at the cafe nearby.

I just nod while wait for hannah. “Hyomi ahhhhh!” i heard her scream my name and turn to her way.

“glad that u are okay. I thought something bad happened” she said as she pulled me inside. Yeah. Nothing’s bad fortunately.

I smirked.

 

So, the inside is a chaos. People are chanting for their bias.

So i was there, putting on my poker face on like i dont give a when my innerside is fangirling for beast.

I keep on playing with my phone until i heard the mc announced the next performer is beast. I quickly glanced at the stage, still with the poker face.

 

Yoseob POV

 

“hyung! Where did u go ?” dongwoon asked me as i arrived.

“nowhere. Something happened so i need to rush there” i said. “everything’s okay now ?” doojoon asked me as a concern leader.

I nodded as i rush to do my make up and change my outfit. Suddenly, i felt my heart is beating so much as the time flies.

I keep on humming to our tittle song, good luck. “what’s wrong ?” junhyung asked. I just shook my head.

I wandered around the waiting room, “what’s wrong with him?” i heard gikwang asked. “stage fright ?” hyunseung asked.

“no way. he’s fine usually” doojoon said. “come out boys. It’s ur turn soon” manager jin taek called us.

Oh goshhhhh. I’m not ready yet! The others start to get ready. “ so soon? I’m not ready yet”i said.

“then, be ready” manager jin taek said as he eyed me. i know the other member are staring at me too.

“u’ll do great, yoseob” i whispered to myself as i walk out. We went up stage when the mc announced our name.

I greet all the fans who come to watch us. But, still.. I’m looking for her. I scanned the crowd. And there.. I saw her.

With an expressionless face. Do she hate us or what ? And then, our eye met.

 

Hyomi’s POV

 

He is looking at me.

 

Really ? I mentally slapped myself as i look away no, it must be a fanservice.

I secretly glanced at the stage and they’re positioning themselves. 

 

”why..why you leave me alone, baby..”

”i’m still, still loving you...”

 

“neon jigeum nareul dugo tteonagajiman”

 

“haengbokhagil baralkhae”

 

His voice echo around the hall. His voice was so- i can’t describe with word. But i really love his voice.

 

I closed my eyes as i heard them sing.

 

“good luck, baby good luck to you, keok haengbokhaeya hae”

 

“noman boneul nan no hanabakkae opnun nal dugo teonagatdamyon”

 

Suddenly the memories hit me.

 

 

HIM.

 

Me who only looks at u. You’re leaving me behind when i have only you.

 

I shed a tears.

 

I quickly wipe the tears before anyone notice it. So i open my eyes and was greeted with yoseob’s eyes. is he looking at me ?

Did he notice my tears.

 

“good luck baby good luck to you, nugurul mannado”

 

“nega naege namgin sangchomankum non do haengbokhaeya hae”

 

He was literally singing to me. Idk .i just felt like it relate to me.

 

I looked away. I just can’t look him in the eyes. I glanced at him and he’s not looking at me.

 

Silly me. “why would he look at u, he never know you hyomi.” i scold myself silently.

 

I lost in my thought until hannah poke me.

 

“yah. Are u day dreaming again” she chuckled as she asked. I smiled and shook my head.

 

“i’m going to washroom for a while” i said as i sneaked out from the crowd.

 

 

Yoseob’s POV

 

I start singing the first verse. i saw her closing her eyes. Is she enjoying or what ?... I keep on glancing at her as i dance.

But then, i saw her crying. What’s wrong ? She wipe her tears quickly. Maybe she doesn’t want anyone to notice her.

But i noticed it. Our eyes met again as she open her eyes. I sang my part as i looked into her eyes. It was sooo sorrowful.

But then she looked away. I quickly looked away too as i don’t want her to think i’m weird. I smiled at my thought.

Then i saw her walk out from the crowd.

 

It’s already the end of the song. We greet goodbye to the b2uty who came.

 

We walk to our waiting room; when i saw her roaming around the backstage.

 

I was about to greet her when dongwoon did it first,

 

“eyy, are u a new staff ?” he asked. I just cursed him silently as i gazed at her.

 

She looked at us one by one until her gaze stop at me. She quickly looked away. “no, i’m lost” she said innocently.

“how can u get here ? Isn’t there guards at the backstage entrance” junhyung asked. She tilt her head while thinking.

She’s so cute. I mentally slapped myself. “no. There’s no one there. i was looking for hall 3. But i am really bad in finding my way back” she said while scratching her nape. “oh. We just done performed at hall 3” gikwang said. She smiled. “yeah, i saw u” she said.

 

 

“how bout i show u the way ?” i offered.

 

 

 

 

Everyone are staring at me. “what ? I’m going to get some drinks at the machine too” i give an excuse.

“what happen to u hyung ? U are not being urself today” dongwoon asked. I just playfully knock her head.

“ so, let’s go ?” i asked her. She just nod as i led her way.

 

Hyomi’s POV

 

I walked behind him silently. My heart is beating so fast. Idk why. I hate this feelings. No. I tried to hate.

 

“ so, are u a b2uty ? He asked, breaking the silence. “no” i lied. “really ? Then what are u doing in hall 3?” he asked.

“does it matter ?” i asked him coldly. He stop and turn to me. “ yeah. Since u are not a fan of me. So its mean u didn’t like me” he said

as he look into my eyes. I looked away. “i never say i didn’t like you” i said. “so u like me ?” he asked.

“i- i... i have no feelings to u. N-no hate or like” i stuttered. He chuckled. “w-what?” i asked.

“you’re cute” he said as he walk. My heart is beating incredibly fast after hearing his compliment.

I shook my head trying to push away the feelings as i follow him. “we’re here. “ he said “umm.. Thanks” i said.

He just smiled and walked away. I took a deep breath and go inside. I looked for hannah. “where were u ?” she asked.

“ i got lost just now but i’m fine.” i explained. “gosh. U just freaked me out. Its almost end” she said as we both watch the artist performed.
