FAST FORWARD 3 YEARS

Producer
What the hell was this performance???

Producer
This isnt what ive been training you for!

Producer
Do you think this performance was good??

I shook my head, a tear trickles down my cheek

Producer
No, i didnt think so Y/N im so dissapointed in you!

Worker
Sir-

Producer
I brought you here because i thought you would work hard

Producer
I guess i was wrong

Producer
I’ll be assessing you next month as usual

Producer
You better show me a performance that was better than this one

I nodded

*door closes*

I fall to the ground

Y/N
I cant take this anymore

I’ve been stuggling trying to go to practice and doing school at the same time

And it brought on a ton of stress and anxiety

I consistanly kept thinking about debuting and what i would do if i wouldnt

And lost all my motivation

That consistant thrive to do well in school and try and debut was lost

I didnt know if debuting as a kpop idol was what i wanted anymore

And kept thinking if this was the right choice

I didnt know it was going to be this hard

I didnt know if the blood, sweat and tears i put in to make an effort would lead to something

Why did it suddenly become like this?

I curl up into a ball and begin to cry...

Y/N’s POV

*sniff* *sniff* i think its time to let go of my dreams

Being here was all i ever wanted

And it came true

I got to sing and dance and i met some amazing people here who had the same dream as me

We all went through some hard times but i got to share it with them

But being here has taking too much of my time and energy and isnt good for my mental health

I feel disapointed in myself

For not being able to push past the hard times

For giving up so easily

But i can accomplish so many more things

Debuting is just not one of them

I begin to cry again

Y/N
Im going to miss this place

Y/N
These 3 years have been a lot and im so glad i got to experiance them

Y/N
Although im giving up my dream these past few years have made me stronger and made me feel like anythings possible with hard work

Its getting late

I look around for the last time

Turn around and walk to the door

Look back at the studio one last time

And turn the lights off and close the door

I walked to the producers office and cant bring myself to knock on his door

Eventually i knock

*knock* ........ *knock*

Producer
Come in

Producer
Y/N? What brings you here?

Y/N
U-um i-i

Deep breathes Y/N

Producer
?

Y/N
I- dont think t-this is what i w-want to do anymore....

Producer
Y/N what are you talking about?

Y/N
I-i dont think i want to be a k-kpop idol a-anymore

Producer
What? Y/N you cant be serious

Producer
Is this because of the things i said earlier?

Producer
Y/N you need to go through these things in order to become what you want to be

Producer
No one said training to be an idol was going to be easy

Y/N
I-i know that i-i always knew that

Y/N
B-but all of this i-is too hard for me i-i just dont want t-to go through it a-anymore

Producer
Y/N please think this through are you sure this is what you want?

Y/N
Y-yes im 100% s-sure

Producer
*sigh* I had high hopes for you Y/N

Producer
Just know L.T Entertainment is always open for you

Producer
I hope whatever you accomplish in the future is something you truly love

Producer
Just know there will always be hard obstacles to pass

Producer
And sometimes those obstacles are something you cant pass by yourself

Producer
You may fall

Producer
But you will always get back up again

Y/N
T-thank you and t-thank you for e-everything youve d-done for me

Producer
Haha anytime goodbye Y/N i hope to see you soon

Y/N
G-goodbye

I leave his office

It takes me a good few steps for me to stop and begin crying

Those words are something i will never forget

I will forever be grateful for this place

I walk out of the L.T building and see Hyunjin and his friend


Seungmin
Heyyyy Hyunjin

He wraps his arm around Hyunjin


Seungmin
The other members are waiting for you lets go


Hyunjin
Oh yeah okay

I walk past them, they didnt notice me

I walk home dreading the news i have to tell my family

Wise words ;-;
