52 Drained

"Hyung how do you do it."

It was already late at night that the group had finished their first day of shooting, they were all dead tired as it was their first time.

"I just act like I'm posing in front of the fans when I do my shoots."

"Yeah, but seriously how did you even manage your first shoot when you debuted solo?"

"Hmm"

Junho remembered the various things he had to do when he debuted as 'Ruler' he also did some promotions such as photo shoots at first he wasn't comfortable and didn't know what to do.

"Come on Hyung look at us."

Sungjae said as he pointed at Daniel and Mingyu's stressed out faces, the three were generally lively but now they were all silent.

"I don't know how to put this but I just got used to it."

'I can't tell you to get a system though since I have it so naturally I won't get tired physically but mentally I still do.'

Junho said and thought to himself as he looked at the system shop in front of him, he didn't say anything else as he went to the kitchen.

He bought the system's water bottles that could regenerate stamina, he then went out and threw them one each.

"Catch"

"Wha-!"

Sungjae got hit in the head, Daniel just let it hit his body, and Mingyu caught it.

"You should work on your hand-eye coordination more."

"That really hurt but thanks, where did you get this Hyung? It looks different."

Sungjae said as he opened the water bottle and drank it, the rest followed as they were thirsty and tired.

"I asked Woo-Jin Hyung to buy it for me from the market, I had a feeling you guys were dead tired, I drank this everyti-"

"Woah! That feels great, Why do I feel lighter and somehow."

"It's the secret stuff."

Junho chuckled as he saw the three of them finish the bottle, they then looked at him with pleading eyes as if asking for more.

"Get some rest we still have shoots for tomorrow, even Jinyoung is already fast asleep"

"We got it Hyung, actually."

"What?"

"You never told us the story on your first debut, like 'Really Really' and how it felt to win."

Junho looked at them once again, he nodded and sat.

"Well it was like this when I started, like what's happening right now was the same with me."

"Everyday I would come back home just to sleep then wake up again to do things all over again, it's a never ending cycle."

"I can't begin to explain how many times I had to shoot for the music video, how many times I had to practice alone, and how many takes there are."

"I'm not scaring you guys that's just how it is, this is much better than going solo since we all have each other's backs."

"Well if you put it like that Hyung."

"There's no really other way, I can't sugar coat how stressful it's gonna be after, going to different placed and taking different shots."

"But the feeling of winning something is great, I still remember my first win on Inkigayo I even asked JYP if I could the trophies which he accepted."

"All three of those are on my room back at home, well considering the amount of stress I was put through it was a nice reward if you ask me."

"Well Physically you can get just rest your body but Mentally its different."

"Why?"

"You won't feel it now since you're still new, just remember to always take a break if you're not feeling mentally well you guys can talk to me."

"Mental stress is different, you won't know when it'll hit you, you won't know what to do, you may not meet it now but just know I'll always be here."

Junho told them, the three of them nodded as they looked like they were contemplating on things.

"Well it's getting late, we still have tons of shoots tomorrow, and then there's the music video, and then there's the music shows and then there's the variety shows and finally there's the concert."

"Well goodnight I'm off to sleep you guys should to, don't wanna looked stressed for tomorrow."

"Junho."

"What is it."

"Do you think we're going to make a music video?"

"Well it depends on how well it is received but I doubt."

Suzi and Junho were conversing as they sat together, since they were both leaders they really didn't mind.

"How's Galaxy?"

"I'm the only one from Pegasus so they're walking on eggshells when they see me."

"What about the others?"

"Well Choi Yuna doesn't have an agency yet so she's treated differently as well as Chung-ha."

"This is new."

"You never bothered to ask."

"Alright, treated differently how?"

"Well when it comes to practice they're more prone to being pointed out and lashed on by the instructors."

"Can't say if that's new or not but I guess"

"Guess what? It's normal? No, I mean I make a few mistakes more than them but they're very patient with me."

"I guess there is preferential treatment."

"There is."

"It'll change once you guys debut though I can assure you that."

"I hope so."

"You're the leader, the leader is the connection between the management and the group why not tell JYP or Hyun-suk."

"But we're under NNET this time, I may sound selfish but I don't want to be blacklisted by NNET."

"Have you talked to them?"

"Yeah, they also don't want to be blacklisted and instead they're chalking it up to experience."

"I see"

"Will it change?"

"Probably, it depends on how well your group performs I believe you guys can do it."

The two continued conversing until Seungmin called them.

"The two of you come with me."

They just nodded, Suzi's Manager or rather their group's who was Lee Woo-Ra wasn't around this time as she was busy.

"What did we do this time?"

"Beats me, lets just follow him.
