Rhythm of my Heart (#ROMH)

(Bell rings) (Someone's POV) "Okay, class dismissed." Our teacher exits the classroom and I decided to pack my things. "Ko Junyoung! Where are you heading this time?" Huijoon called me, and added. "Wanna bet again? a lot of girls are waiting." I chuckled, "Sorry, can't visit the court. I've got things to catch up." I smirked and left. Huijoon and I are friends, but not really. He likes to compete with me and show off his skills on basketball. But all he did is cheat and win, I play too, but this is not my game. "One! Two! One! Two! One—" (Phone rings) I glance at my phone. "Eomma?" "Junyoung-ah, it's already late. Where are you?" I sigh. "Eomma, I'm with my friends. Don't worry." "Is that so?You should be. Have fun and go home safely." she hungs up. I just let out a big sigh, "She would never understand." I picked up my phone and start dancing again. "One! Two! One! Two!" Yes, this is my game. Dancing, it is. (Someone's POV? I am lying on my bed wearing my headphone. In my pitch dark room, all I see is the stars shining; and a wild music playing on my ear. (Door knocks) "Aera-ya?" Door opens. I plug out my headphone and knock on the wood table. I could hear my aunt's giggle from here. She then turn the lights on. "Dinner is ready, come and join us." I just look at her saying nothing. "Oh, come on, you don't have to eat all by yourself all the time." I respond to her with a bow. She smiled and sigh. "It's been 2 years but she's still on to it." "Yeobo, it's her mother, of course you can't move on to it easily. Just let her be." "I'm just worried about my niece. She's been rejecting tutors and spend the whole day by herself." "Shhhh, she will learn to accept it. Everything will be okay." From the kitchen, I could clearly hear their conversation. My aunt and uncle. They would never understand. I raise my chest and let out a big sigh. Staring at the night sky. How long will I be like this? Will I ever have a chance to see the light? (Junyoung's POV) -School- As soon as I open my locker to get my things, I notice something that stock inside it. "겁쟁이" "Coward?" I furrowed my eyebrows, "Who would dare to do such thing?" "Ko Junyoung." A familiar voice I heard. I close my eyes and sigh. "Yang Huijoon." He chuckles, "When will you stop running away from me?" "You're talking nonsense." "You heard me, Ko Junyoung!" He raised his voice. "Why would I run away from you? I couldn't find any reason to do that." I raised my eyebrows and smirk. He scoffs. "Still attending dance competitions, huh?" I froze a little. "What if your Mother finds out? or worst, your Father?" he laugh hysterically and hit my shoulder passing by. "That punk." I slam my locker's door and grunt. (panting) I head home after school. "Ah..." I stretch my arms up and lie down. "Oh? Junyoung-ah, you're here." My Mom greeted me, "Come here and eat." I went to the kitchen and saw my brother joining the table with our parents. Yes, my older brother. I bowed and sit down. "Your hyung is here, what a perfect timing." Mother said. This seems so awkward so I just keep quiet and eat. "Taeyoung-ah, you must've miss your little brother." Hyung laughs little and said, "How's school? you better be a good boy." I scoff. "Junyoung-ah, why don't you greet your brother? Don't be so disrespectful." Father said. I sigh. "I'm fine." He chuckles, "That's a relief." Mother giggles. "It's a miracle he came home so early. He must have finish his studies so quickly." "Is that so?" He looks at me undoubtedly. I dropped my spoons and sighs, "I lost my appetite." I go to my room to freshen up my mind. Why is he back? He's living a life in abroad. What else does he want? Hyung and I are really close. We're probably partners in almost everything. What he likes is what I like. He promised we'll never be apart, not until this happens. He and I have so much in common, but there's something he have that I don't. (Flashback) "Hyung, there's a Dance club here nearby. They're just opening it next week, why don't we audition there?" He sigh. "Junyoung-ah, I'm sorry." "Why? let's just give it a try." "I can't! I just can't!" He suddenly raised his voice. "Hyung..." "I'm not gonna dance, Junyoung-ah. Not anymore." "But—" he left. (The next 3 days) I just woke up from loud noises in the living room. Yawning while rubbing my eyes and saw a bunch of bags and packed things. "Eomma... what's all these?" I asked my Mom who's busy packing. "We're leaving to abroad, your brother and I." "But, Eomma. What about me?" I held her wrist. "Your father will stay awhile for you. Now, now we're late." She pushed my hands away and left. My eyes starts to getting teary. I ran outside and I witnessed my brother inside the car with a smile on his face. That's the last time I saw him. It's been a week since my Mother and Taeyoung left. My father is here but he's always busy with business trip. ---- "Appeoji, will hyung and eomma com back sooner?" It took 5 seconds for him to answer. "They will." I suddenly felt relief and happy. But then... "Ko Junyoung, you must be like your brother. He could manage the company on his own when he finish studies. I wouldn't have anything to worry, but you, you just do things that are nonsense. You always give trouble—" "Appeoji..." "You must quit dancing. Quit taking dance classes." "Appeoji!'" "You know what's gonna happen to you if you would not do as I say, do you?" "Appeoji..." my voice cracked and I could hardly breathe. "Remember, you are the image of the company. Both of you! And what you're about to do is gonna be a big humiliation to the company." "Y-yes, father." And that's when I started to quit dancing. I turned away to the thing that makes me being me. I started studying well. But Mother and Father always gives my older brother a special treatment. No matter how much gap we have in many ways, he always get their love. (End of Flashback) I'm tired of living full of dramas. But still... I still learn to improve my dancing. Even though I did quit once, everytime I feel down, I just keep on getting back what I used to do. Dancing secretly is what I only did. I'm starting to get better. But once they would know about this... I might have to really stop and quit dancing. (Morning) After getting cleaned, I get my stuff and head to the kitchen. "You still into that bread?" Taeyoung said from behind. I just took the bread and was about to leave. "it's been awhile since the last time I ate that. I was at abroad but didn't even had the chance to get some." He said it with a little laugh. I try to ignore him but instead I turn around and bow. "I'm going now." "Wait—" I stopped on my tracks. "So you did quit dancing." he chuckles, "Too bad." I try to hold my anger and leave. (Aera's POV) It's Friday and everyone here are busier than ever. Surely at this time around, there's no one going out to see the park. Or at least at the playground. After thinking about it, I decided to leave a note alto my aunt and uncle. They're always gone for work. “Aunt and Uncle, I'll just go out at the park for awhile. I'll be back before lunch. Have a nice Friday.” (Junyoung's POV) I took a walk for school not noticing I've turned the wrong way. Thanks to my good bro, I ended up here at a park. Ugh, life. "Huh?" I noticed that only a few people are here today. "Oh, right. Today's Friday." I took a deep breath and realize how nice the weather is today. "Ah, good day to skip classes." I get my phone and sit on the bench. Scrolling through my news feed. Puffs, "What's new?" I lift my head up and notice the pleasing beauty of the flowers in front of me. And there's a bird that lands on it. "Hmmm... I could take a picture of this." As I try to find the right angle, someone suddenly shows up to the camera screen. A girl... Without me knowing that I myself have captured multiple shots... she comes really closer to the garden. I try to call onto her, the bird might fly away. "You there!" she didn't even move a bit. Grunts. "Ya!!!" I raise my hands and wave, "Oy!" Still no response. Of course, she's on a hoodie how can she see me. i***t. I try to whistle many times and she slides her hoodie and plug her earpods off. Ah, that's why... She turns to my side and her eyes widen and— (Flaps) The bird flew away. I haven't got to capture it nicely so it leaves me worried. But this girl, her eyes are still glued to mine. Why does she looks like she just lost a candy. I wave my hand and she shook her head. I come near her and said, "Ehy!" she just keeps on walking away. "Why do you have to do that?" she stops. I stopped too and pants. Both hand on my hips. She didn't even bother to look at me. The girl continues to walk without saying a word. Scoffs, "Did she just ignore me?" (Aera's POV) Did I just bumped into a p*****t? "What's wrong, Aera-ya?" my aunt just heard stomping my feet loudly. She went near to me with a worry face. I shook my head and bow. "I see, you left a note. Did you have a good time?" I sigh and nod twice. She smiles, "That's nice, come on, your food is already on your table. You should eat now." I bowed and get inside. In my mind, If only that guy didn't show up, I should've had a good time. I breathe deeply and decided to fill something for my tummy. (Junyoung's POV) "Ko Junyoung..." As I heard that irritating voice, I turn around and sigh."Get lost." He chuckles, "Yaaaaa, you really like'em fiery." He pushed my shoulder. "Skipping classes to bugger up and dance, huh?" I roll my eyes, "Shut up." "Oh, you're scared? Mommy might find out about this?" Huijoon smirked like he won a lottery. "Yang Huijoon!!!" He laughs as he heard me yelled at him. "Alright... how about a deal." "When you agree to play against me this coming tournament, and if you win, I'll leave your sh*t alone." "And if I don't?" I asked. He chuckles, "Then mommy's gonna have to hear a thing from me." He patted my shoulder and left. "Jerk, he must be out of his mind." I fix my uniform and go to class. (Phone vibrates) I received a message from a friend. “Ya! Where you at?" I laugh a little when I read it. "I skipped class earlier." Without a single beat, he replied back. "Send proof." I scroll through my camera roll and I saw nothing but a picture of the garden at the park with the girl on a hoodie. "Aigoo, is that why she looked at me like that?Did she think I was intending to take her a photo?" I sigh and shook my head. "You sent a photo" "You always send me HD-like photos but this. Were you nervous?ㅋㅋㅋ" This guy really. "The only thing I'm nervous at is that Bang Yedam is finally using his phone." "Pabo. Gotta go now, quit skipping classes, ima." "Yes, sir." (Yedams's POV) "This kid didn't changed at all." "Wait..." I scroll down to see the old message and view the photo he sent me, "This person near the garden looks familiar to me. Is that a guy?" I just furrow my eyebrows out of confusion. "Yedam-ah, it's time!" The staff called out to me. Sighs, "Well... rehearsal time." (Aera's POV) -10pm- (Clashing bottles) "You... you ruined my life!" he kept throwing empty bottles and stuff, "You killed your mother!!!" I'm tired of staying here with him being drunk all day. Hearing those words all over and over again, so I decided to leave and go somewhere away from here. I pack my things but he sees me. "Where do you think you're going?" he came near to me. He pointed me with his bottle. "I'm leaving..." I plainly said that. "Leaving!!?? what, are you gonna still sing even after you took your own mother's life?" (Done Chapter 1)
