Chapter 6 - Chapter 5: Start Of Something New

We arrived in the studio and looked for Da Ge... we saw him in the audio room so we went inside

CHUL: Da Ge!

XIU: oh Chul! (Looks at me) ahh Su Ho, where have you been? I was looking for you.

SU HO: really Da Ge? Why?

XIU: Well, we have to finish this song, I have to borrow your lyrics first so I can have a reference for the rap part.

SU HO: ahh sure Da Ge it's in this USB... (I gave it to him)

XIU: so, how are you holding up?

CHUL: Da Ge! Ahjussi (looks at me) here wanted to talk to you about hmmm... Rest?

SU HO: (I raised my brows at Sungjae) Ajhussi?? Oho... Our little Jeoha here is now imposing orders... What should I call you now? Jeonha? (That word mean Majesty)

I raised my hands and knelt together with my head on the floor to tease Chul

CHUL: ahhhhhh hyung! Stop it! Ok ok, hyung hmpf

XIU: haha cut it out, guys. Well, I never doubted your intelligence Su Ho, but reading my mind? That's a whole new level!

SU HO: oh? What do you mean Da Ge?

XIU: I was thinking the same thing you know. Everybody needs a time out. So, why not talk about it right? Its already 0945pm Let's meet at the house after 20 minutes ok? Taejin messaged me and said he will be cooking dinner instead since Jimin Hyung hasn't come home yet.

SU HO: yes Da Ge, we'll be going now. ohh and don't forget my USB! Come dongsaeng let's go home!

CHUL: yey! Bye hyung!

The three of us are in-charge of the songs produced in our album. It is one of the conditions we mentioned in our contract with North Bards Entertainment, our agency... We create the lyrics, produce the music and we also choreograph our dance. It was Taejin and Jimin hyung's job for the dance routines. But we chip in ideas as well and they too when they find a lyric suitable to our album.

With this, it made our group formidable. We make our stuff. So it is virtually impossible to have similar tracks nor music with other groups having the same date comebacks as we have. We surprise our fans with our antics!

It's already 15 minutes past 10 pm when Jimin Hyung arrived

JIMIN: oh my god. I'm super drained right now! Chul, would you be a dear and bring me a glass of water?

CHUL: get it yo...

I cut him off, motioned him to get the water. Sheesh sometimes, Chul's childish behavior is a handful. But Chul listens to me coz I was the one who helped him with his studies and troubles in school and work.

CHUL: (pouts at me) yes hyung, coming.

JIMIN: thanks dongsaeng. Ahhhh... It feels so much better to sit. I was standing the whole interview! For 2 hours! Argh!!! why can't they give it a rest?!

SU HO: that's what paparazzis do hyung, they won't rest unless they get a juicy scoop!

I was a testament to that when I was called dumb and egotistic... everyone has their eyes on me to make mistakes... Hah, proved them wrong! Well except for the egotistic one... I believe I am. And I have all the right to brag!

JIMIN: can't believe you went through all of this Su Ho... Now I feel as twice as bad as I felt before. I'm sorry for not doing my best to defend you.

He puts his arms around my shoulder and rests his head on it.

SU HO: everyone helped me hyung, and I thank everybody for that. None of you rested before until I was clear of those rumors.

JIMIN: tsk... Being a celebrity sucks...

We all laughed. It's always nice to have Jimin hyung around. He always lights up the gloomy atmosphere in our house every time we arrived home due to exhaustion.

Just then Chul spills a little bit of water on hyung's head

CHUL: oops sorry hyung...dongsaeng is clumsy!

And he ran away fast and Jimin hyung runs towards him. It's as if nothing happened. Haha

TAEJIN: guys! Come over! Foods ready! Da Ge already placed the plates on the table.

JIMIN: ahhh my favorite dongsaeng! It seems I am ready to retire as the chef of this hopeless group!

TAEJIN: hyung, this is just a one-time thing. You'll still be our favorite chef. Haha

We all ate merrily and then after that, we proceeded to the living room to discuss our agenda while our maknae washes the dishes... He will agree to anything I decide anyway. haha, Da Ge presided the meeting.

XIU: ok guys. First of all, let us congrats ourselves on a job well done. We've been through thick and thin and we always succeeded despite the downs we experienced. I know every one of us feels obliged to cater the needs of our fans... But to do that, we must first realize and assess ourselves if we are all feeling alright. Are we exhausted? Yes, we are stressed out. To the point, we aren't productive anymore. I felt empty... I can't produce songs fast like I used to... We need a break from all of this. What do you say?

TAEJIN: break? What do you mean hyung?

We can see that Daniel was worried. He was thinking Da Ge might suggest we all disband...

XIU: Daniel, it's not what you think. What I meant was, we need a break for some time. Have a vacation... We all need a rest, a good amount of rest. Don't you think so?

TAEJIN: Oh, I thought! hehe. Yes, I'm beat, we need to relax

SU HO: yeah, and I know how Jimin hyung is caught up with this issue. He needs to be with his family and stop worrying about us. (I smiled at hyung and he smiled back at me mouthing the words 'thank you')

XIU: right... So, if everyone agrees then raise your hands!

Fuck yeah everyone raised their hands! Even Chul cheered while washing the dishes!

XIU: So it's settled then...

JIMIN: so when are we going to tell NBE?

TAEJIN: I hope they agree with hyung...

We all see Da Ge smirked

XIU: Well, good news... I already talked to our manager and as well as our President... I initially asked for a month of rest but he told me 1 month isn't enough... So, he gave us 3 months of rest and canceled all our schedules at the beginning of next month!

Everyone gasped at the news! It was good news indeed!

The day after, we all continue to do our routines... Finished our schedules until it's the end of the month...

Chul will go on a vacation in Thailand together with his family.

Jimin hyung will li-low with the issue and will go to Bali for his vacation with his family.

Taejin will be back in his hometown and help his parents in their business.

Da Ge said, he'll be in Hongkong to visit his parents...

And as for me, I "randomly" chose a place to stay for 3 months. I don't have a family to return to anyway. And I don't want to leave the country. So, I'll indulge myself in being alone and relax.

The only thing our agency told us was to stay sharp as always. Look out for reporters, and if they hear even a slight rumor about us circulating the web, they'll pull us out instantly.

I guess I'm a rebel after all... It's not even a week and I'm about to create the juiciest story a reporter of gossips could ever ask.

I mean, I'm not gay... But this guy is fuckin gorgeous! And my back freakin' hurts!
