Inside the office of the President of Star King Entertainment all the seven members of SEVEN X were called for a meeting about their upcoming show in Los Angeles, California.
"You are overweight" President Ji Min seok told Taemin with a disgusted look.
"How many times I instructed you not to eat recklessly but you never obey the agency. why must you the leader be a rebel like this?"
Taemin patiently replied " President my fans love me as I am. looks are just materialistic things. It will change sooner or later we must focus on the performance. anyways my look is not much different then before so I will work hard on my performance and the choreography instead"
"DON'T YOU DARE TEST MY PATIENCE PARK TAEMIN!! Are you forgetting the fact that I made you who you are today. I can throw you out any second !"
Scared of the situation KB stepped forward and tried to calm down the situation. "President don't be so angry. Taemin will surely work it out."
Baek se-hun was the maknae* of the Band so the President always favours him this time he spoke out of concern to save his leader
"President Hyung* is already working hard. Believe me he will work this out you don't have to worry at all"
all the other members spoke in agreement. They knew Taemin was having a hard time.
"I don't care !! Don't eat any meals for these 5 days or do whatever you want but I want a thinner look on the stage anyhow."
The president adjusted his position and spoke again " you all know very well how many K pop bands wants to be where you all are today. they are ready to pay any price. you are lucky that I choose you all and made you who you are today. You have to look perfect and give your all No matter what"
Ji Min seok was a cunning Man. He can do anything, cross any limit for the sake of his Entertainment company.
He was once a commoner who rose from dirt, his position and wealth was everything to him.
"President please , I am suffering already. consider me this time" it was one of those rare moments where Taemin was pleading someone for his own need.
"why did you became an Idol then? if you can't even maintain your body? just because you became an international star you think you can enjoy life? don't act so comfortable. I gave you this identity and if you act arrogant I can take it away at once. Now you all go and practice"
Taemin tightened his fist in anger and stormed out of the office driving straight to their Dorm. The members knew about his temper, they knew how much he was struggling with his life for all these years. since their debut Taemin has worked the hardest from being a responsible leader to composing lyrics of songs he has given the band his all. But the members were helpless cause they too were sailing on the same boat. They can't do anything. offcourse stardom wasn't as good as it looked like. Taemin had locked himself out in his room. Lee sungwoo and Baek se-hun banged his door "Brother please talk to us"
Taemin was smashing things on the floor to vent out his anger. soon the members were concerned and started calling him out loudly
"Taemin don't be a child. come talk to us"
"open the door Taemin ! come out you brat!! be a man" but Taemin never responded.
"Don't trouble him. let him be for some time" KB took away the others.
***************
Kim Yerin took each step with great care, not making any sound which may announce her arrival in the house. She really wanted to avoid her mother's nagging. Silently locking the door of her room she finally relaxed.
Her phone rang. She checked the number and picked in a cold voice which she normally uses with the outsiders.
"speak"
"young Miss I booked a front row VIP ticket successfully as you wished"
"Good"
"would you stay in our hotel or would you take the farmhouse?"
"The farmhouse would do"
"well young Miss I got the news from the manager of our hotel that SEVEN X has made a reservation for 2 days and also signed a membership contract with our hotel"
Her eyes started shining with happiness and shock.
" really? How come? they always prefers the CENTRAL PALACE or the CELEBRITY HUB "
"They said they wanted a homely vibe and their membership with both the hotels have ended so this time they signed with us this time"
"I will live in the Hotel then. Tell them to prepare my suite"
"Okay young Miss I understand. I will make arrangements"
YES....YES...YES...she Jumped in excitement. luck was in her favour this time.
'I will be much closer to my sehun oppa this time"
suddenly she remembered her online friend BUNNY the Park Taemin Fanpage and decided to text him.
"Heyoo Bunny🐰"
*****************
Taemin was lying on his bed like a lifeless creature. Its a hard life he thought. He had his family, the band, millions of fans and admirers right by his side still he felt empty inside like there is a part of him still missing somewhere and he is out there trying to find it.
cling ! cling!
a message dropped.
"Heyoo Bunny🐰"
He smiled. Recently he had become accustomed to those random texts on his phone. This girl....he had grown very fond of her and the bonding between them. whenever he was going through a hard time miraculously her message would drop at exactly the same time. she gave a very warm and positive vibe . He use to smile and laugh very often now while reading her texts.
But then again he turns vulnerable thinking about the fact that if he had been a normal guy he would have got the chance to meet her. 2 times she asked him to meet her in person but he would somehow turn her down with those vile excuses. He was scared of his identity. she would never treat him like a normal guy once he reveals his identity.
once he reveals his identity everything between them will change forever. The reality in their relationship will diminish and he was afraid of that. offcourse he wanted to know what kind of a girl she was in person.
ughh! How he wished to see her.
quickly he replied
BUNNY : Heyoo sunny- sunny🌞
SUNNY: Are you coming to watch SEVEN X's show in LA?
Temin laughed. he wanted to type so badly 'I will be the one performing there'
BUNNY : No I have a paper due on that day so I will be attending my classes.
SUNNY : How boring you are....Well I am going !! and I have got the front row tickets.
BUNNY : congratulations! you can send me some exclusive pictures then.
SUNNY: okay but you have to compensate me
BUNNY : how?
SUNNY: Buy me chocolates when we meet:-)
BUNNY : so simple? why not!!
SUNNY: wait the real good news is yet to come . Promise me you won't tell it to anyone.
BUNNY: okay okay silly girl I promise
SUNNY: SEVEN X is staying at the ELITE INN hotel this time. I am going to sneak in and take some pictures of my sehun
Taemin frowned. how did she knew such a private piece of information. the hotel had signed a confidentiality agreement they can't leak it. how did she came to know then??
BUNNY: How did you know ? have you told this to anyone else?
SUNNY: I have my ways and offcourse I haven't told anyone. this is only for me.
BUNNY: But intruding someone's privacy like that is unacceptable. you should do it like that. what if you get caught?
SUNNY: calm down boy. I am not intending to harm anyone. I will just take a few decent pictures besides No one can catch me don't worry. who knows I may bump into my sehun
suddenly Taemin's eyes lit up. Maybe if he keeps a keen eye inside the Hotel he may have a chance of encountering her. Afterall she would follow around sehun. After giving a brief thought he replied
BUNNY: okay. Be safe
SUNNY: sure. I hope SEVEN X gives another great performance as always
BUNNY: Don't worry we will give our best
huh...Taemin bit his tongue. hell! what did I wrote!
SUNNY: why do you often act like you are a member if the band ?
BUNNY: you see its my fantasy. sorry don't mind:-)
SUNNY : NEVERMIND🍁
The stylist knocked on her door. "Young Miss please come to the closet. Its time"
Kim Yerin cried in frustration 'I don't wanna go' she wanted to chat more.
SUNNY : I have a boring party to attend. Bye
BUNNY: easiest way to avoid a party just fake an illness
SUNNY : as if I can ! my parents will probably drag my dead body there
BUNNY: haha 😂 then go and enjoy stop being a crybaby. see you soon bye
See you soon??? but when? Kim yerin wondered. we never planned to meet. what a weirdo!!
"KIM YERINNN come to the closet this instant"
this time her mother's voice shook her room. she ran to the closet as soon as her legs went. otherwise her mother might just break her room.
