Just A Number

I was more annoyed than I should be leaving the restaurant. Jungkook and that…that girl were giving each other looks every time she passed by our table!! “Yuna are you alright?” “Yes!” I answered a bit too loud and frustrated, I slid into the passenger seat and slammed the door with my arms folded looking out the window,



“Yunaaa noonnnaaa,” Jungkook whines making a funny face, something he always did to make me feel better, I really don't want to be in a mood, “don’t call me that,” I tried to keep myself from smiling...but failed as I turned my head looking at him, he laughs at me and then his eyes started to focus outside of the window, I turned my head back to see what he was looking at and saw her…Hayoon.

It looks like she ran out of the restaurant looking for Jungkook, he quickly got out of the car and walks towards her. What the fuckkkk?? I’m…fuming right now. They were talking for about a good 10-minutes laughing and smiling until she waved at him going back into the restaurant, I’m so irritated! He gets back into the car and just stares at the wheel lost in thought, “well??” my voice slightly raised again, he jumps as if he forgot I was in the car with him, “S-sorry Yuna.” What the hell is wrong with him?!



We arrived back to Jungkook’s father house, Mr. Jeon was sitting at the table with tea ready, “Welcome back,” “Good evening Mr. Jeon, I’m not feeling well right now so I’m just going to go to bed, I said striding across the living room, I feel a bit rude but right now I don’t care I’m beyond pissed. Jungkook follows behind me, “Yuna, Yuna!” I kept walking until I was in his room, “I just…don’t want to be around you tonight, okay?” I closed the door in his face and felt tears falling from my eyes. It was the first time that I was questioning my relationship…I…really don’t know him. I don’t really know anything about Jungkook.

Hayoon and I have been dating for 4 months and it feels…amazing. This is what it’s like to have a girlfriend huh? We’ve been hanging out almost every day, I don’t think I could ever get tired of her, we have so much in common. We were on a date at an amusement park that she’s never been to here, so far we’ve been enjoying ourselves.

“Jeongguk-ahhhh, I want to ride that rollercoaster!” She jumps up and down like a little kid, “Oh? You aren’t afraid?” I laughed, she turns to look at me pouting, “Why? Because I’m so short??” “Yes,” I laughed again, “You’re short but really cute, like a puppy,” I winked, “Gee, thanks,” She rolls her eyes, “Well c’monnnnn I don’t want to wait in line forever so let’s goooo,” She pulls my arm leading me to the rollercoaster line.



We finished riding the roller coaster and it made me feel a bit dizzy, “WOOHOO! That was so much fun!!! We need to go on it again!” Hayoon was bouncing around me like a hyper dog, “Uh, let’s just sit for a bit Hayoon,” “Oh yeah, okay, are you alright Jeongguk?” “Yeah just a little lightheaded, I’ll be fine once I sit,” I smiled. We sat on a bench under a tree, Hayoon held my hand, “I’m going to get us some drinks, are you okay with that?”

“U-uh, yeah, or, no I-I’ll go,” every time she touches me I just lose my train of thought or lose my breath. “No no no, you stay here mister, I’ll go get us drinks, it’s fine.” She gave me an angelic smile before heading towards a concession stand, I felt myself blush, she’s honestly the cutest, I wonder if this is what love feels like?

“Hello, can I have a moment of your time?” a woman with heavy makeup came up to me with a clipboard, “I work for NOVA agency and we’re holding open auditions for people who want to sing, dance, act, model or whatever and you look like great person who can model for us,” “Oh, u-um, no, that’s o-okay,” I stuttered my words, “What’s going on?” Hayoon came over with some lemonade, “Hi is this your boyfriend here?” the woman asked Hayoon, “Yes he is, can we help you?”

“Yes, I was just telling him that he should come and audition for us, we’re NOVA agency and we see he got the good looks to maybe model, or if he has any special talents. We’re holding open auditions here right on the stage next to the merry-go-round if you’re interested in coming.” “Um, no, that’s okay,” “Jeongguk didn’t you say you enjoy singing??” Hayoon eyes me,

“Y-yea, but I just do it for fun, not like a hobby or anything,” “It’s okay just come and do whatever,” the lady butts in, “Yeah Jeongguk, what do you have to lose, doesn’t hurt to try,” she chuckles, “I-I don’t know,” “Pleaseee, I also want to hear you sing,” why does this have to happen?? “Pleaseee for me?” I rolled my eyes and sigh in defeat, “I…guess,” “Yay!” she clapped her hands, “Awesome, come follow me I’ll have you audition first.” What did I get myself into??

They gave me a number to put on my shirt, this feels stupid, I really don’t want to be here and especially to sing in front of people. “Why am I doing this again?” I glance over at Hayoon, “Because it’ll be fun, like, what if you make the audition, you’ll become a star,” she smirks, “B-but, I don’t want to,” “Oh Jeongguk, don’t you want to leave this town?” “I don’t know..” I look down at the floor, as much as I hate this town we’re in, I think I’ll miss it if I ever move…that and my dad.



“B-06? You’re up!” Hayoon gasped, “That’s you! Go go!” She pushes me towards the stage, this is crazy! I walked up and saw a lot of people were looking at me, I can feel my knees slightly tremble. “Hello, what is your name?” a guy with sunglasses and long hair asked, “U-um, it’s, it’s Jeon…Jeongguk.” “And…how old are you?” “15..” “Nice, you’re pretty young, andddd…what will yo be doing for us?”

“U-um…singing sir,” “Ah, singing, okay, what song?” crap, what do I sing? Maybe a song that I enjoy?? Well, that makes sense, “Um, ‘Nothing like us’ by Justin Bieber..” “Ooo, nice, well, we’re ready when you are,” This is my first time singing in front of people besides my dad, I honestly feel like puking…and crying. Why am I doing this? I glanced over at Hayoon who just gave me a thumbs up with her beautiful smile, that smile…just gave me confidence, I sigh, here I go…

I was in the moment and when I finished I saw everyone gawking at me, some mouths were agape. Did I sound that bad? Hayoon was staring back at me in awe, and then everyone in the audience stood up and clapped, even some of the judges. “Wow…Mr. Jeongguk…may I have a word with you son?” The guy with the sunglasses gave me a big grin, I have a feeling…I impressed him.
