#123 "Who is Joshua Hong?" (part 3)
A famous singer, Joshua Hong, is looking at the blank space inside his entertainment's dance practice room.
"Joshua hyung is staring at the blank space like an idiot again," Dokyeom, a member of his Kpop group, commented.
"The word idiot coming from you huh," Seungkwan laughed. "It sounds funny."
"Skip that part. Not funny. Ha ha ha," Dokyeom sulked.
The other member of vocal team, Woozi and Jeonghan turned to him. This time, Joshua is sighing.
"Is he thinking about that girl we've met a year ago?" Woozi commented.
"Probably," Jeonghan agreed while nodding.
It's been a year since Joshua got lost in the middle of the mountain and met a province girl who doesn't know him. It was a short but memorable encounter that their final goodbye is still vivid on his head.
"Thank you so much for helping me and my friends," Joshua said to her.
The tanned girl, who dressed far from those pretty city girls he met, nodded at him. "It's not free anyway. You paid me a lot. Bye."
That's all? Joshua thought that this separation isn't what he expected. Does it need to end with a simple goodbye?
"Ugly. Are you sure that there is no bear on the way down?" Seungkwan asked to make sure they'll be safe.
"There's none. Mick- I mean, the bear is hiding inside his cave when morning has broken. Do you want me to accompany you? Then give me forty five dolla-"
"NO NEED. YOU GOLD DIGGER," Seungkwan glared at her.
Joshua just laughed in silent. He is the only one who knows that the bear is owned by that girl.
"Thank you for lending us a room to stay," Jeonghan said while smiling.
"It's not lending, it's renting," Woozi murmured.
The girl looked at Woozi. "So glad that the kid slept well. Do you have enough energy to climbed down? I have cow's milk here."
"You-" Woozi was about to strike her but thank goodness, Jeonghan was there to hold him. "Be thankful you're a girl." He pointed her, face was red.
"Hey hey! Let's take a picture together!" Dokyeom announced as he took a selfie shot together with the girl who was frowning at the back.
"Hahaha! She is really ugly," Seungkwan laughed, looking at the shot while walking away with Dokyeom and their driver.
Jeonghan bowed at the girl as he pulled Woozi along with him.
"Why are you still standing here? Go," the girl said to Joshua who was standing in front of her, not budging.
"Ahhhh well," he scratched his nape.
"Are you worried about me knowing that you guys are celebrities? Then don't. I really don't care who you are."
"N-Not that. Ahmmm," he bit his lower lip. "I don't remember you introducing your name. Before I go, can I know it? Your name?"
When was the last time someone asked her for her name? This will be another first after years.
"(Y/n)," the girl answered.
Joshua nodded, "ahhhh (y/n)."
"Joshua hyung! Why are you still there! Come on!" Seungkwan called from afar.
"COMING!" He answered. Joshua made a step away but stopped to look back. "Can I come back here?"
"Huh? For what?" (Y/n) got confused.
"I wanna v-visit M-Mickey. Your bear. H-He is..." he stared at her eyes. "Cute."
Hearing that made her blushed. And she hates it. This feeling that made her excited to wait. She doesn't like getting attach to someone who will leave.
And so she replied, "Don't ever come back." And turned around. But Joshua pulled her wrist and while the other members weren't looking, he pecked on her forehead.
"You are not the only stubborn one here," Joshua smiled. Then he ran away to follow his co-members.
That's how his first love started.
A year passed by. But Joshua didn't come back. Reality hits him. He is a celebrity, a busy person in fact. They promoted their albums non-stop. They also made an over-seas concert tour around the world. Joshua was busy making his fans, carats, happy. No matter how he really wanted to go back to see her, determination is not enough.
A celebrity being in love is really hard.
"If he is sulking like that over that girl, then he should visit her," Seungkwan commented to Jeonghan, Woozi and Dokyeom. They keep on staring at the lonely boy from distance.
"Joshua doesn't know the way," Jeonghan replied.
"L.A boy," Woozi nodded.
"Why can't he ask us to take him there?" Dokyeom asked.
"Do you think he has the courage to ask us? He keeps on denying that he isn't thinking of her like how we've said. Huh, his pride is really.." Seungkwan shook his head.
"Besides we were too busy. He doesn't want us to think that he is selfish. Hoshi made a hard choreography this time. If he skip a practice, it'll be a problem. We all know that Joshua is a kind of person who doesn't want to be a burden," Jeonghan stated.
"So in the end, this is all because of him being an idol. KDRAMA is real," Dokyeom pouted.
While they are talking and Joshua is sulking, someone came inside the practice room.
Jeonghan, Woozi, Dokyeom and Seungkwan looked at that person. Their eyes widened as they slowly recognized the girl who came in.
"Oh? You look familiar, " the girl pointed the four guys who are gawking at her.
When Joshua heard that voice, he looked back. Like the four guys, his eyes widened in surprised. He stood up in awe. The moment she saw Joshua, she remembered when did she see them. Right. She finds it hard to memorize every people's face because she wasn't interested. But for someone like Joshua, she won't ever forget him.
"You..." Joshua murmured while walking closer.
The four are still too shock that they became just random audience of the two.
"Is that... really... you?" Joshua asked, now standing in front of her.
Her lips pursed. She couldn't say a thing.
"Why? How did you..." Joshua keeps on blabbering.
She turned around and about to walk out but the CEO of Pledis went it. "(Y/n) you're here already," CEO greeted. He pushed her inside, holding her shoulder in front of the boys.
What is this?!
The girl they met in the mountain is here at their practice room?!
How could this happen?!
Everyone was dumbfounded, especially Joshua.
"(Y/n) these guys are your senior. They are really famous and talented. You'll learn a lot from them," CEO introduced.
"Ahhhh," she muttered. "So they are singers from this agency." Then she bowed at them, though it is really awkward. "Hello. My name is (y/n)."
"She is a new trainee. (Y/n) sings really great so I think vocal team can help her improve. Right Woozi?" CEO look at the one of the most genius composer.
Woozi smirked while looking at (y/n). "Yeah. She'll receive a good lesson from a kid."
"Daebak,"(wow) Dokyeom gasped.
"I almost didn't recognize her because she is wearing a proper clothes," Seungkwan commented while looking at her from head to toe.
"Huh? You guys know her?" CEO looked at her. "You know them?"
But, "No. It is my first time seeing them," she lied.
"Things are really amazing, right?" Jeonghan whispered to his friend before he tapped Joshua's shoulder.
"Y-Yeah," Joshua answered as his eyes shine towards her.
She won his heart by not knowing who Joshua Hong is. But this time... he wants her to make a step forward. To welcome her in his life.
