     The idol life was harder than she thought. Fan signs, practice, photo shoots, performances, the list of things she had to attend went on but regardless of her busy schedules Sophie didn’t regret her choice. The fact that she knew many of the idols from her old occupation helped a lot to make the social butterfly feel at ease backstage, joking along with her friends and smiling brightly the whole time. Nevertheless it caught the female off guard that Sehun wasn’t smiling back at her as she approached him, his next words making her expression drop and change into a confused one before a pout- something she was known for- followed. He was thinking that she had been flirting? “ What are you talking about?  I was being told a joke and we just exchanged some words afterwards, there was no flirting included. That’s literally all, don’t be like this Sehun. ”

   There was no doubt in his mind that Sophie could be friends with anybody. It wasn’t because he couldn’t, but the fact of the matter was, he simply didn’t want to. He enjoyed having a select few around him rather than a crowd, as he was always forced into a crowd since birth. There were no signs of eye contact between the two once they met, yet the sight wasn’t odd at all. His face was kept neutral as he stared at the group of idols she had just left. Many of them acknowledged him and bowed in his direction, only earning a firm nod from him. “I’m only kidding, can’t you tell?” he asked, a tiny bit of sarcasm in his voice as he very knew well that his face was rid of any emotion. Eventually he told himself to stop the jealousy and offered a quick smile. “Seriously, I’m not being like anything. You know I’m always playing around..How did you think you did on stage?” he asked, in attempt to change the subject.

She held her knees against her chest and her head was buried within them, trying to stop her tears from falling and trying - but ultimately failing at trying to remain cool and collected like how she usually is. Siyeon never really liked crying in publlic, but at this point - she couldn’t take it anymore. She was a sobbing mess on the floor backstage where she had been watching her company sunbae’s perform. “O-Oh” Siyeon tried to stop blubbering like an idiot to answer the male’s question, she wiped away her tears, crossing her legs and trying to compose herself. “I-I just, I’m just, wondering” she sniffed, wiping away the remaining tears. “W-Will I, ever be good enough to d-debut yet.”

Having a closer look at the woman, he realized how young she appeared and immediately felt guilt, as he had a soft spot for children and adolescents. "Oh..you haven’t debuted yet..” he repeated softly, looking around for any sign of tissues before quickly offering the hem of his black shirt. “Here, it’ll be bad if anyone else saw you like this, especially any of your higher ups.” Younger people were often more honest than adults, which was why it wasn’t a surprise when she told him the reason without any speculation of who he was. “Hey, why do you think you’re here in the first place? If you weren’t good enough, you wouldn’t be this close to your sunbaes. We were all in your position at one point, if you have confidence..” he paused, bending down to her level with a smile, “You’ll definitely get there. You’re still young right? It’s not impossible.”
