"YOON MINJI GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!" A voice screamed out in the open hall of an apartment house.
"COMING ARI !" a response was heard along with some shuffling and footsteps coming down the stairs.
She was wearing a body tight, black, thin strap crop top with a neon green half shrug over her shoulders ( like the one that Rosé was wearing in the HYLT dance practice video, but both sides are tight fitting long sleeves.) and black cargo pants. Her hair was styled up in a high ponytail with her short curtain bangs framing her face. She finished off her looked with silver rings, two necklaces, and her black ankle boots.
"Okay, I'm ready let's go." The girl spoke and finished off with a sigh as her friend shook her head at her antics.
Both left the house and after locking it went towards the car park. The girls wore smiles on their faces as they entered Aradhya's car to get to their designated venue.
Reaching two hours earlier than the starting time, they got out of the car and looked around. Neither were surprised at the amount of people there, knowing how it gets before a concert and silently thinking about what a good idea it had been to come a bit early.
'The Dream Show 2 : In Your Dream' would be Minji's 7th NCT concert as a whole and she was excited to add this set of memories to her list.
It was Aradhya's first ever concert and Minji was glad that she was there with her cousin for her first experience.
"I can't wait! I can't wait!" Adhya squealed in excitement, jumping up and down with a happy smile on her face as Minji laughed at her sister.
"Let's go get you the light stick" Minji said to the Indian girl, "I'll pay don't worry."
"You're the best Mi" Aradhya clapped her hands together and followed her taller friend towards the line for merch stalls.
The two hours passed by fast as the girls stood in line for merch, trading photo cards with other fans, and took pictures of each other with their light sticks and banners.
Finally it was time to go inside the stadium and nctzens began to push each other around to reach their places faster. Minji and Aradhya managed to get in quicker due to their VVIP passes and they managed to be standing right in the front row of the barricade.
Money hadn't been a problem for Minji ever since her mom died. It turned out that her mother was an only child from a very high class family who shifted away after her parents passed. And Minji being the only remaining descendant of that family line, was the sole inheritor of all the money and her great-grandparent's company.
Being rich had its own pros and cons. Pros - she doesn't have to worry much about her spendings as her bank account has more than enough to sustain her life and her future grandchildren's if she had any. Cons - finding friends who didn't want you because of your money and status was difficult.
But Minji had Aradhya. She's had Adhya since she was 15, all before her inheritance finally came and Minji couldn't be more thankful to have such a supportive sister.
Tuning back into reality and out of her thoughts when her said friend shook her shoulders, Minji's heart started to beat faster.
The lights dimmed and a voice was heard, welcoming the NCT members to the stage. It was time.
And the concert began.
✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧
Two and a half hours later, Minji was tired, sweaty, and pretty sure she had lost her voice from all the screaming along with the lyrics.
The ending of the concert was near and all the Dreamies were lining up together to make their last speeches and to interact with their fans. They went in age order, the others still waving and silently mouthing answers to nctzens while that member was speaking.
Jisung tried to pay attention, he really did. But there was something in him that kept taking his gaze towards a particular section in the crowd. Doing another once-over of the people in front of him, his eyes finally stopped on a girl.
She looked about the same age as him and was strangely familiar. She looked taller than the average height of 5'5 and held herself up so confidently, even in a group of more than thousands of unknown people.
He was drawn to her presence for some reason and continued to look at her until it was his turn to speak and even after that, when they spent the next 15-20 minutes just walking around the stage and interacting with the fans he couldn't help but look in her direction.
NCT DREAM were wrapping up in their last 5-7 minutes when he walked over to her section and waved at the fans there.
Their eyes met, and it was at that moment, Jisung realised who it was. The same hazel eyes he looked into more than 10 years ago and gave a tearful goodbye to.
There was a smile on Minji's face as she held up her poster-banner with the words, 'PARK JISUNG'S NO.1 FAN'. And he reciprocated the action by sending finger hearts her way - the fact she and the other fans didn't know it was for her specifically was left untouched.
But it seemed that luck wasn't on his side that day, as at that exact moment, Chenle came up and told him they had to take their final bows.
Taking another desperate glance in her direction, he nodded and followed, looking happy on the outside but stuck in an inner conflict with his mind.
He was leaving her.
Again.
"And now I know, now I know
It's time to go, it's time to go"

Sya Notes !
Jisung recognises Minji but she doesn't know and he had to leave her again. Ugh why! (I do know why because i right the chapters 😭)
But the next update will be better (hopefully). I can't promise it since i don't know what goes on in my own head half the time but i'll do my best!
Enjoy reading!
