I headed towards the door and opened it. I was surprised to see who was standing outside my house. It was San and Seonghwa, my best friends.
"I missed you guys a lot." I said and hugged them tight.
"So did we." San said.
"Come in." They seated themselves and I handed them some soda.
"How did your tour go?" Hana asked.
"It went well. Our ATINY's cheered for us continuously. Even though we were tired, their cheers made us do more." San replied.
"You don't look surprised at all Hana." Seonghwa asked.
"I got used to you guys coming here. And I don't want to be fangirling over you guys now." She said and we all were giggling at her answer.
"You guys free this weekend?" I asked.
"I guess. We just finished our tour, so yeah."
"Then bring the guys over to the cruise. We could spend some time there."
"That's a great idea. I'll let the others know about this." Seonghwa said.
"Looks like someone is excited to meet our guys, especially Hongjoong." San said.
"Shut up." I said and threw a pillow on him.
"I am excited to meet the others too. But more excited to meet him."
"Why is it so?" Hana asked.
"I have a special respect for him." I said and looked at them. They were staring at me weirdly.
"Well, you guys can take rest in my room or the guest room. You know where everything is. Feel free to ask or take anything." I said and they went to refresh themselves.
They came down and Seonghwa headed to the kitchen as usual. Whenever he came to my house, he made sure to cook a good meal for me.
While, San was watching TV holding Shiber, dog plushie. He carries it everywhere he goes.
You can say, he's more attached to it. He also collects a tons of plushies. He likes them a lot.
I met them both during my high school. They are the sweetest of all. The friendship between us didn't end, even if they are part of an idol group named... um... I don't remember quite well. They spend their free time with me and Hana. I also got close with their members. They're all sweet.
Especially Hongjoong. He's the cutest I've ever seen. All of them are cute, but he's a bit more, in my eyes. He also was the one who saved my life from an accident.
I was about to get dashed by a car, passing by at a high speed. Luckily Hongjoong pulled me, before I could get dashed. Neither the guys nor Hana know about this.
I joined Seonghwa at the kitchen.
"You really don't need to cook for us, whenever you come here." I said and helped him out.
"It's a way to show my gratitude to you, for everything."
"I did nothing."
"Y/n, we know what you did." San joined him.
"What do you know?" I asked, confused.
"What we know is that, you recommended us to the company. You know it was our dream to become an idol. Because of you, here we are. We always wanted to tell you this..." He paused and looked at San.
"Thanks a lot for fulfilling our dream. We love you so much." They said and bowed down. I stopped them mid-way.
"You don't need to bow to me." I said and hugged them both.
We stood in a row, hugging each other, from side.
"But that doesn't mean that we'll leave you and go." San said.
"Yes. We will always support you and your dream." Seonghwa added.
"Good to see you guys like this." Hana said and was clicking pictures of us.
"We're not complete without you." I said and she came running and we group hugged.
We all sat down and had the food Seonghwa made. It was delicious as always.
He still remembers my favourites.
Japchae and Bulgogi.
It's my all time favourite. And I love meat.
It was a great meal. We all sat on the couch and watched some TV. We really don't watch dramas or movies, when we are together.
To be honest we watch.... um... it's kind of kid-dish.
Yeah, we watch cartoon, especially 'We Bare Bears'. It's fun and enjoying. Showing your inner child is ok. We watched it the entire day.
----after dinner----
"Let's call it a night. I'm really tired." Hana said.
"Yeah. Got a lot of work to do tomorrow." I said and got up.
They nodded and we headed to our rooms. Hana and Seonghwa left to their room. I pulled San and pushed him to my room.
Whenever he comes over to stay at our house, he and I would share my room. I would share it with Seonghwa too, but San would be the one who spent most of the time there. We both lay down and looked at the blank wall, which looked dark, with the lights off.
"Y/n, you could start a You tube channel with the talent you have." San said.
"I could, but you know what people will tell if I did. I've heard a lot of it from many. And I don't have that much braveness to stand all of them attack me, at once."
"Y/n, you are brave than anyone I've known. You are stronger than I am."
"You think I can. But I don't think I can. No one really appreciates the talent I have. Everyone say that I should better listen to my dad and be happy living there. They all freaking think that man is doing great things. But that's all just for public. They don't know how he is inside the house."
"Things don't go our way. We should make them. At least, out of those 10 people, 1 person supports your decision. It's a long road. Put in a lot more effort and soon there'll be more people, supporting you. That's what even I thought at the starting of our debut, but later, step by step we've got a tons of our fans supporting and encouraging us, time to time."
"This is why I need someone called friends, to take me in the right path." I said.
"But you'll have one person in your life, to support your passion. He'll guide you throughout your life."
"This is going somewhere." I said and we laughed.
"Good night." We both wished each other and slept.
*next day*
I woke up by a loud noise outside. I felt irritated to hear someone shouting early in the morning.
I walked out, pissed off and stood by the railings.
"Yah, what the heck are you shouting for, early in the morning?" I asked and walked down.
Hana and Seonghwa were still shouting over each other. Hana was holding something in her hand. I snatched it from her.
"You both are fighting over a magazine?" I said and looked at it.
I rubbed my eyes and looked at it clearly.
"What the fuck?!" I shouted, not able to digest the news that was written in it.
"What happened?" They all asked, worried.
I ran to my room and refreshed myself and took my car keys and headed down.
"Y/n, where are you going?" Seonghwa asked.
"To meet him." I said and headed out and into the car.
---half an hour later---
I reached my house, where I stayed before and barged in.
My parents were having dinner with some random family I don't know about.
I walked over to my father.
"With who's permission do you think you are getting me married to some random guy?" I shouted.
"*clears throat* Mind yourself." He said.
"No, I can't. And I won't." He shook his head. I know what he means by that.
"Well Y/n, this is Kang Dae, Mr Kang's son and the owner of KD Company. The one who you are gonna marry." My father said.
"Nice to meet you Y/n." He said.
"I am not happy to see you. Listen, I am not interested in this marriage. I freaking don't live by your rules now." I said.
"Until and unless you are committed to someone, you can say no to this. But you are not." Kang Dae said.
"Did I ever tell you that I was single?"
"Then who is the one you like?" He asked.
"It's none of your business to know."
"It shows you are lying." My father said.
"I am not. All you want to know is who he is, right?" I paused.
"It's Taehyung. That's all. If you want more info on it, find it yourself. And this ends here." I walked out of that house and got into the car.
On my way home, I was confused why I said that name at the first place. It just came out of my mouth.
I reached home and saw them three standing still.
"You guys didn't leave yet?" I asked San and Seonghwa.
"We were about to leave now. Why did you run out hurriedly?" Seonghwa asked.
"My father was about to get me married with some other business man's son. By the way, I want to know something." I said, looking at Hana.
"What is it?"
"Who is Taehyung?" I asked.
"You don't remember Taehyung? You just met him at the fan sign." She said.
"The one with the box smile, form the group BTS." San said.
"The one who sat last at the fan sign and the one who I dashed into?" I asked. They all nodded.
I used his name. My image is already broken in front of their fans but now, I am gonna die, if they get to know.
"Why? What happened?" They all asked.
"Well.... I-I headed home and..." I said them the entire story.
They were all in shock.
"I don't know why I said that name. It just popped in my mind, out of nowhere."
"I...It's all over social media and news." Seonghwa said as he looked in his phone. I took his phone and looked at it.
'Y/n Choi, daughter of Choi's Company, says she and Taehyung, from the K-pop boy group BTS, are dating each other. Armies are going wild over this news.'
"I'll be fine. I'll be fine." I said to myself.
"You guys head to the dorm." I said and opened the door and walked out.
As I did, there were cameras flashing and people standing in front of the house.
'I've gotta face this now.'
"Miss Y/n, is it true that you are dating Taehyung, from BTS?" A guy asked.
"Miss Y/n, did you go to the fan sign to see Taehyung?" A woman asked.
"Miss Y/n, if you are dating Taehyung, why did you say that you didn't know the K-pop group?" Another guy asked.
"Miss Y/n, why did you run out of your house and staying here? Is there any specific reason?"
"Miss Y/n, how long have you and Taehyung been dating?"
"JUST STOP!!" I shouted.
"I am NOT dating anyone! I am not!" I screamed.
"You b*tch!" A girl said and started throwing tomatoes.
I covered myself. San pulled me in and closed the door.
I ran to my room and closed the door. Tears started flowing. I hugged my knees and cried more.
"Y/n." I heard Seonghwa and he kneeled down next to me.
"Y/n, it's ok." He said. I hugged him.
"I just want to be a normal, happy person. Why can't I be one?" I cried. The others joined too.
"Y/n, everything will be alright." Hana said.
San got me a glass of water and I drank it.
I got up and looked through the window. I noticed a familiar face, leaning on a black car.
"Kang Dae." I wiped my tears and looked at him. He was already looking at me.
So, all this was his plan. He told it to the media, he made them come here.
"Fuck you." I mouthed to him. He smiled and left.
I sat on the bed.
"It is all planned."
"What do you mean?" Seonghwa asked.
"The guy, who my father wanted me to get married, planned on getting the media here and told them that I was dating Taehyung."
I thought what to do now.
"Anything we can do now?" Hana asked.
"All I need to do is... meet Taehyung." I said and sighed.
