"So we're done for today, get some rest everyone." Our manager said as we bid goodbye and exited the building. I saw Y/N waiting outside and he looks tired, for sure. "Hey, what did you do a while ago? You look tired." I asked. "I just ran some errands at school. So anyway, how's practice?" He asked. "Just the same like every day," I sighed. "Let's get some food, I'm hungry," I said and he agreed.

We arrived at a restaurant that we always went to every time we meet. "So when are you going to debut? It's been a while now." Y/N asks. It really triggered me when he asked me that since it's been years of hardships. "Just don't talk about it for a while, I know I'll get there." I tried to cheer myself up. "Of course you will, you're my brother anyway," He cheerfully added.

As our orders got served, it was just in time since I was starving to death after practicing for hours. Just smelling the food made my body feel active again. I was so focused eating, my phone rang and I jumped a bit. I was surprised that it was a message from my manager.

It said:

Meet up at the practice room tomorrow, an hour earlier than the usual time. -manager

I wonder what's going to happen tomorrow. I should eat fast so we could go early and I could rest more. "Hey, let's eat fast. I have to rest since my manager said I have to practice an hour earlier tomorrow." I said. "Oh, sure." We ate quickly and we got home.

I woke up when my alarm played. I quickly got up and I saw Y/N already downstairs. "Y/N, it's too early. You should sleep, I can do this by myself." I said while rubbing my eyes. "I'm coming with you. I'm just not in the mood to go to school on time." He said. He's just practically scared going by himself. "Fine,"

We left the house and got to the bus. It was just the two of us there since it was pretty early that time. As we got there, I waved my hand and he left too. I got in the practice room and saw everyone in a line in front of my manager. I greeted them and stood beside everyone.

"Everyone is probably wondering why we are all gathered here first thing in the morning." "And it's because" He stopped at his words for a while. "You are now debuting so you'll start practicing today." Our manager said. Hearing those made everyone, including me, excited and restless as we heard the words all of us wanted to hear.

The first thing I thought was to tell my parents that I was going to debut. I also messaged Y/N about it. They all replied with joyful words and appreciation. I finally got my happiness back and I got my old self back.

The whole week, everyone worked hard and prepared ourselves. I felt like I was living a dream and since being an idol is new to me, I feel excited and worried at the same time. But I'm still thankful.

I was waiting outside the practice room, feeling proud for Hanse. I know he was waiting for this moment his whole life. I saw the other members leave until I saw him come out. "Congratulations!" I patted his back and I can't stop smiling. I knew he would make it.

"'I really thought I can't debut at first, but now I realized my hard work paid off." He said.

I went rushing back at home since the music show started by the time I get home. As I got home, I saw my parents waiting for the show to start. I sat down with them as we waited for his group to come next.

It took a while but it was worth waiting for. We finally saw him and the rest of the members. We clapped and cheered for him. I felt delighted seeing him living his dream just right in front of me.
