Chapter 719 We're All Going To Die (1)
Mei quickly wiped the tears from her eyes, feeling like she had encountered the strangest moment in her life.
Why did the mere sight of June in his new haircut bring her to tears?
Was it because June looked utterly handsome?
Indeed, he looked very handsome, but Mei wasn't that shallow to cry over a man's beauty!
"Hey, are you alright?" Ara asked in concern, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder.
Mei nodded, fanning her eyes to stop the tears from flowing.
"I'm fine. Something just went inside my eye," she said as an excuse, even rubbing them to make a point.
"Alright," Ara sighed, stopping Mei from rubbing her eyes. "We'll be performing soon. We don't want you to ruin your makeup."
"Right," Mei muttered, looking down at her hands.
Ara didn't look convinced that Mei was doing okay, but she let it go since Mei appeared like she didn't want to talk about it.
Mei definitely didn't want to talk about it.
She, herself, didn't know the reason behind her tears.
All she knew was that she felt a sense of familiarity after seeing June in his new hairstyle.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
An older man.
However, what was strange was that the familiar man was still unfamiliar to her.
Ironic, right?
"First team, please go up the stage," one of the staff members said, causing Mei to snap back to reality.
She glanced at her teammates and nodded.
They were the first team to perform. It was her first time opening the show since she had always been grouped with the likes of Jeemin and Mina. Therefore, she was extra nervous.
Nonetheless, she knew that she did her best in their practices and rehearsals, so she didn't want to waste her team's hardwork.
With that, she took her spot on the stage, the audience exclaiming as the first set of idols stood in the dark.
"Who is it?"
"Who's going to perform first?"
"I'm so excited! The song choices were already revealed, and I'm looking forward to the unique songs—especially 'We're All Going To Die.' That song is superior."
When she opened them again, she felt like she was ready.
"We're all going to die.
But who decided that?
Why make us live?
When you'll take it away in the end."
The first few words left her lips softly, tentatively.
Her voice wavered but held steady, guided by the breathing techniques June had drilled into her during their practice sessions.
"We're all going to die.
When did that happen?
What was the use of the laughter and the cries?
Did I just imagine?"
The notes were in tune, and with each passing sound, her confidence grew.
June watched from his seat, a proud smile forming on his face. He had seen Mei struggle and had witnessed her fight to overcome her insecurities.
Now, seeing her on the stage with her voice sounding more robust than before, he felt a surge of pride in his heart.
She was doing it.
She was really doing it.
For long, he thought that becoming an idol wouldn't be suited for Mei.
June wanted to protect her.
However, how could he protect her from the thing she loved?
It was obvious in her gaze that she wanted to become an idol, and June regretted even thinking of taking it away from her.
So, with a small smile, he finally nodded.
And along with that nod was a sigh of defeat.
"That's my sister," he whispered.
"She's grown up so well...even without me."
