Way Back Home (GOT7 Fanfic)

Chapter 3: Evaluation #1

“1234 and 1234. 1234 and 1234.” our dance instructor says as we continue to have our warm ups.

“Okay stop. Attendance.” she then announced our names and we said present.

We were about to continue our training when JYP entered the dance hall.

“Oh, Annyeong haseyo.” our instructor said. We also followed her and greeted JYP.

“Is everybody enjoying?” he asked and we all nodded. “I just dropped by to say some few announcements. All of you know that monthly there will be an evaluation whether you have improved or not. There will be one evaluation every end of the month. Every 1st week of the month, we’re going to announce the concept of the monthly evaluation. And this month’s concept will be the easiest concept of all, LOVE. In order to know your strengths, this evaluation will be individual.”

When JYP said that it will be individual, everyone was shocked.

“Oh? Shocked? You shouldn’t be. You performed solo during your auditions. And as I continue, I’ll give you a hint about the evaluation.”

He then puts his two fingers on the corner of her lips and spread it making his lips smile. Then he bowed down and left.

So that was it? It’s the hint? A smile? How in the world will I be able to show love while smiling? I never experienced a happy love story. My love story is always one-sided. I’m the only one who love. -_- Aish.

“Interesting evaluation concept. You have 4 weeks to prepare for that evaluation. But now, let’s continue with our training.”

We started dancing again. After that, we attended our Korean class (it is only for foreigners like me who don’t know or is not fluent enough to speak Korean language.)

It’s already evening and our training is over. I’ve decided to go to the Dunkin Donut store nearby because I’m craving for it. I was walking alone and I entered the store. When I bought there, I went out and I was able to see the stars.

“Stars, they’ll always be the reason why I’m dreaming.” I said.
“Really?”

I looked at my left side and saw a man wearing shades, fully covered. For real, where’s the sun man? Wearing shades during nighttime is really funny.

“Ahm, do I know you?” I asked.

“So you don’t recognize me?” he said.

“How will I be able to recognize you if your face is covered?” I said sarcastically.

“Good. No one will be able to recognize me.”

“Excuse me?” I said.

“Yaah, I’m GOT7’s Jackson.”

Did he just say he’s Jackson? O.o

“Jackson? What are you doing here?”

“I’m just waiting for Mark and Yerin to come back.”

Wait, did I just hear Mark and Yerin? Ouch. </3

“Mark and Yerin? Are they dating?”

“Pssh. Quiet. I don’t know but I think Yerin likes Mark that’s why he always asks Mark to go out with her.” Jackson said.

“You don’t have any practice now?” I asked.

“Actually, it’s our rest day today. No schedules.” he said.

“Does Mark know that Yerin likes him?” I am very curious. Promise.

“I don’t think so. Mark treats Yerin as his little sister. I don’t know what will be Mark’s reaction if Yerin admits. Ya, why are you curious? You like Mark?”

“Because I’m a fan.” I said.

“Yaah, don’t tell anyone about that. Please. Or else, I’ll get killed.” Jackson said.

“No problem. Oh.”

An idea entered in my mind. What will someone feel if someone confessed their feelings?

“Oh, I’ll be going. Thank you for the idea!” I said to Jackson while I was running to go back to the building.

You’ll be able to smile if someone you liked confessed to you and we can consider it as a part of love. But what should I do? Of course, I’ll sing with my guitar. But isn’t it just too plain? Aish. Think Rhianne, think.

But I don’t know the feeling when someone admits his or her feeling to you. Ay.

“Yaa.” I fell down because I wasn’t looking on where I was walking.

“Ya, are you alright?” I looked at the person who said that.

“JB?” I immediately stood up. “I’m fine. Thank you.”

“Stop imagining things if you’re walking. You’ll be in the hospital.”

“Aww. Haha. Yes. Thank you. Uhm, wait, what did you say?” Yah Rhianne! Put your mind together.

“Haha. You’re weird and I like it. I’ll be going.” JB said then he tapped my head.

Did he just say that I’m weird and he liked it? -_-


“Rhianne!”

Ow it’s Jisoo.

“Have you eaten? Let’s eat.”

She then pulled me and I saw C together with Minyoung. We’re going to eat together.

We were talking about the upcoming evaluation.
“Rhianne, what’s the concept of your evaluation?” C asked.

“Aren’t we all the same?” I asked. Okay maybe I’m not really listening.

“We’re not the same. We’re on a different level. Since you just started recently, you’re on a lower level. But you should perform well on the evaluation because in every evaluation you will be able rank up. And who knows, maybe in just a few months you’ll be with us.” Minyoung said.

“Okay. Now I finally understand.” I said.

“We’re on the last stage, if we improve, we’ll be able to debut. If we stay the same, we’ll just stay on our level. But if we fail to improve or maintain our abilities, we will be transferred on a lower level.” Jisoo said.

“So that’s how things work here. Ahm, our concept is about Love. And JYP gave us a clue, a smile.” I told them.

“Oh, so maybe he is referring to a happy love.” C said.

“That’s what I’m also thinking. But I haven’t experienced any happy love life so I don’t know how it feels.” I said.

“Ahm, are you a fan of GOT7?” Minyoung asked. I nodded. “Who’s your favorite member?” she continued.

“Ahm, I think, Mark? No, it’s Jr. No it’s JB. Ah okay, I’ll choose Mark.” I said.

My bias list is broken.

“Just imagine this, you like Mark and then Mark confessed his feeling to you, how are you gonna feel?” Minyoung said.

How am I gonna feel? Yaaah. I don’t feel anything. -_-

“I don’t feel anything.” I said.

Then they started slapping my shoulder.

“Yaah, you should feel at least something.” C said.

I continue imaging it. But still no feels enter me.

“I’m sorry but I should experience it first. I don’t know the feeling promise.” I said.

“Then let’s tell Mark that Rhianne likes him.” C said.

“Yaa yay a ya.. No! Don’t!” I said.

“Who likes Mark?”

When I look at the back it was Jr of GOT7.

“Ow, Jinyoung.” C said.

“You like Mark?” he said while looking at me. Then he laughed. He then hold my face and looked.

“Ya, why?” I said.

“Uhm, You just need to fix yourself and I think Mark will like you.” he said.

“Ya, it’s not GOT7 Mark. We’re talking about my classmate who used to have the same name as Mark.” I said.

He smiled and said, “Okay.”

*phone rings*

“Yeobeoseyo? Ow. Yes Jackson. Okay I’m going there.” Jr said. “I’ll be going. Jackson is already looking for me. Rhianne.” then he raised his eyebrow as if like he’s up to something.

“Yaah” I said.

“Oops. Haha. But don’t worry. Jinyoung is not the type of person who gives meaning to that.” C said.

After eating, we went to our dormitories. I held my guitar.

Yaah. Why am I like this? Why is Jr entering my mind? Please stop. :3

Focus on the evaluation, about love. What is the thing about love that makes a person smile?

The thing about love is I never saw it coming

“AAAHHHH!!!!” I shouted.

“yaaa. Why? What happened?” they all asked.

I just smiled at them.
