As Hyung watched me getting up, he sat down for a bit and was resting, while watching me stretch.
My heart was beating really fast, I've never danced in front of everyone else, other that Eimi I mean. It was quite embarrassing for me, I got to admit.
As I kept stretching, Hyung asked me.
— Any song in mind?
My eyes were shining at this moment, a lot of songs went through my mind, but I really couldn't decide for a specific one to dance right now.
Then, that song came to my mind, yeah, that was a song I wanted to dance to right now.
I told Hyung and prepared for it. Then, the lyrics started.
🎶Starlight twinkling up in the sky🎶
🎶Smiling at the streetlight🎶
🎶What am I thinking? Daydreaming🎶
🎶Without any words, walking by myself🎶
🎶Lonely night, without any sound🎶
🎶Where is it, do you want to go?🎶
🎶Flowing around like a cloud🎶
🎶She will know my heart is empty🎶
🎶Her whisper is ringing in my ear🎶
🎶Why is my heart drenched?🎶
🎶Can you feel this nervous heart?🎶
The song started quite slow, but I could sense how the momentum was slowly building up, at this moment already, I was really deep into the beat, and the emotions that the song evoked were slowly taking control of my body.
I slowly submerged in the song's rythm. And then, I arrived at the highlight of the song, my body involuntarily started to dance to the so famous "L dance" that the original song was so famous for.
🎶Why am I drawing you?🎶
🎶Why can't I see myself?🎶
🎶Do you understand what is in my heart?🎶
🎶It is because we love each other🎶
The song was already finishing, and I was slowly starting to recover my senses after being inmersed.
There's sometimes I simply turn off my mind while dancing. And the thing is, it only occurs while dancing.
But, the moment it occurs, it's too refreshing, and exhilarating, no other experience comes near that satisfaction for me.
The song already ended, and I was once again relatively calm, but I could still hear my heart beating strongly.
Then, I remembered there's someone else with me at the room. I turned to look at Hyung and noticed his reaction.
His slit like eyes were completely opened now, and his sharp jawline was really low, right now, product of his wide opened mouth right now. Then he said.
— Wow! You're really good... I didn't expect that at all. Park Nam Jung would be really proud if he saw you. — Some pride faintly appeared in my face, but instantly disappeared, then I shook my head and replied.
— Not at all, I have a lot of things to improve, I can't compare at all... right now.— That last part even surprised myself, it kind of escaped my lips before noticing.
— Really arrogant aren't you? — Hyung inmediately said with a teasing smile in his face.
I got really embarrassed after he said that, what was I thinking?
I don't know when Hyung stood up and approached me, but he patted my shoulders and confidently said.
— After my debut, I want YOU to dance with me. Not at a dance studio, but for thousands of people. Your dancing is quite exciting, it's like you're permanently inviting me to dance along. I'm not anyone important at all, but I really think you're really good.
Once again, after those recomforting words, a confident but faint smile appeared on my face.
At that moment, I promised myself to not disappoint Hyung. We are indeed going to share the stage at one moment in the future, don't know how, but I'll make it happen.
— Anyway, Chris-ah, Want to keep practicing with me? — Hyung interrupted my thoughts.
I said yes, and both of us kept dancing until the two of us were completely spent, and hardly gasping for air while flatly resting up.
We danced to all kind of songs, no matter the genre, gender of the original singers, we danced to everything.
A tiny spark of rivalry between us appeared, and later evolved into a giant flame the more we danced, making us being so tired.
— Ok, we kind of exaggerated, didn't we? — I asked Hyung while heavily breathing.,
— It was your fault though. — Hyung replied — I initially intended to just mildly practice.
I rolled my eyes and said.
— You were the one that kept increasing the tempo of the songs — it was actually true, I don't even know how was he putting the music right now.
A sudden silence appeared In the room for a couple of seconds before both of us bursted in laughter. I guess both of us were the same, no one ever pressures us to that stage of competition.
And because of our stamina, no one kept with our rythm, not that there were a lot of people In my life to compare to.
I managed to sit down after crawling to the nearest wall and leaning myself on it. Noticing my action, Hyung incredulous, said.
— You're a real monster. Hyung always praised me, but you're on a whole new level. — He honestly said, but then, a teasing smile appeared on his face once again and continued — ... but, you're lacking practice still, if you want to beat me I mean.
I clicked my tongue and ignored him. But it was true, he was that good. While I tried to keep his rythm, he was significantly better than me at dancing, every move of his was just too smooth to be true, and always were almost flawlessly connected between them, while always corresponding to the song's beat, it was almost magical from my point of view.
Still, I wasn't disappointed at all, he's been training for some time now. While I've never received any kind of formal training, at all.
Everything I did, was completely self taught, I still had a lot of room for improvement.
*Pang*
While we were both beaten, the door of the studio was heavily slammed. A short man, wearing a black hat, as well as a a black tight shirt, and black pants with white stripes on it furiously entered the door and screamed.
— YOU DO REALLY HAVE GUTS! — he was directly screaming at Hyung while hastily approaching him.
— Wait Hyung, I can explain, you see... — Hyung was nervously trying to say something, but the man didn't give him a chance.
— Spare me your poor excuses, you think you can miss the trainees reunion whenever you want. Thought I wouldn't notice?. — At this moment, he was almost dragging Hyung while pulling his ear.
—NO HYUNG WAIT, WAIT... — Hyung was trying to explain himself but it was futile.
After a couple of seconds of useless resistance from Hyung, my loneliness once again came. I don't know how much time I spent with Hyung, but it was some really exciting time, I hope we can repeat it.
I was still really tired, so I approached a sofa there was at one side of the studio, and slowly crawled to it, before slowly going to the realm of dreams... I had some nice sleep time of a couple of hours, Or maybe more?.
I had weird dreams though. It was about me, Eimi, Sang Min Hyung and even Father moving to a big house and living together.
It didn't even make any sense for me at all...
Not that I would recall the dream after waking up....
....
After some time, I could sense how someone was shaking me, and a delicious smell assaulted my nose.
I slowly opened my eyes and noticed that Hyung was back once again. I stood up while feeling completely renewed. Then, Hyung said.
— I'm sure you still haven't eaten right? I brought some Ramyeon, take it as bribing for not talking about what happened before... — Hyung sullenly said that last part. But I could see there was something else, so I asked.
— Who was that? — I honestly asked.
— Oh, he's a trainer here, but, let's just say he's important to me — That's when it came to me, I could see myself reflected on Hyung's face. He had the same expression I had when talking about Sang Min Hyung and father.
I guess he was his benefactor.
I didn't want to press the issue so I didn't ask anymore questions. I'd let him tell me when he wanted me to know about his situation. But for now, it was a really happy experience for me to have launch with him today.
After all, I expected a really dull day today....
