The Untold Story: BEYOND [BTS]

The Untold Story: BEYOND [BTS]
4


A busy day begins. For a few days Mary chose to sleep in the office with some


staff. He sometimes sleeps in the dance room, vocal, even studio. Agust, Jhony and Hope are members who sometimes choose to spend the night in The Hit.


Mary felt fresher after taking some vitamins given Agust. He walked to the meeting room to meet Justin. He opened the door, Justin seemed busy flipping back his textbook.


“You will be on school leave for two weeks,” said Mary while putting some papers from earlier


he took it to the table. Mary's words made Justin's round eyes towards her. Mary looked at Justin's cheek, the bruise was gone, making Justin's handsome face look again.


“Why so long?!” Exclaims. Justin had never been on leave before. But the school which is an art school and also has some students who work as idols and artists are used to the long leave proposed by their agency.


“Of course. This is all so that you are more fully trained. I've sent a letter to school, calm down


just.” Mary reread the file on that desk. “Ah Yes.” Mary looked at Justin. “Later when you get in, just borrow your friend's notebook. You can copy it and study in an apartment, or here.”


Justin thought. He thinks between not bothering to copy the lesson by not wanting to borrow his friend's notebook because of course they will not lend. Justin has no close friends.


“That's a lot, your friend who's on the internet. Just borrow him.” Said Mary as if she used to read Justin.“he's one school with you, right?”


Mary makes Justin think of Jane, Jane is her regular cafe keeper and also a friend


justin's school is next to his. The long-haired girl always sleeps in the library during breaks and eats lunch during class hours. That's what Justin knows about him. The only friend he was close to. Justin also made her remember what Jane said a few days ago.


At that time Justin chose to play at the cafe again. He did not attend the final lesson. It's been shit for. It


also saw Jane who was already in the cafe. The girl was truant too. Jane looked at him in wonder, “Justin? You truant again?” Ask. Justin did not answer and just passed it. Justin is heading for his favorite seat. He sat there every time he went to the cafe. But the day is shit. There was a middle-aged man with a creepy look sitting there.


“You can sit there.” Point Jane at one of the empty benches. Justin obeyed. He sat down immediately


on the bench without a sound. Jane who knew Justin was in a bad mood even approached him. Jane


sit next to him and play the same game.


“You've been fighting with, Leo, yes?” Jane opened a conversation that Justin certainly did not want to hear.


Justin was silent. The fingers move quickly over the keyboard. His eyes also focused towards the screen.


“Just understand him. He just envies you.” Jane's hand movements are also no less fast, her eyes are also like


stuck on his computer screen. “Leo is no longer a trainee. He did not qualify for the agency's monthly selection. So he envies you who already want to debut, while he does not debut soon.” Jane told me a long story.


“Maclumi only him.” Jane repeated her words.


Justin closed his eyes and rounded his fist. Jane broke her concentration. He turned his chair to face Jane. His gaze made Jane a little frightened.


“Do not interfere with our affairs,” he said slowly and sharply. “why are you defending him?!” it


raise voice. “And too! Why should I curse him?! He's been talking to me! Is it wrong if I debut first from him?! Failing the selection is not because of me! I also don't know what will happen after I debut!” He ended his words. Making a whole cafe


be silent. Their eyes all look awkward.


Justin could no longer concentrate on the game. He paid and rushed out of place


that's. Jane chased after him and managed to grab his arm.


“You're angry? Maafk..”


Justin flicked his hand before Jane finished her sentence.


“Ok! Sorry!” Jane raised her voice as Justin walked away. “Congratulations for your debut! Don't hurt your legs again!” Jane yells. His last words stopped Justin. It reverses the body. Jane walked closer. “You know? We've met before.”


Justin looked at Jane confused. From where he knew his leg was hurt. When did they ever meet?


“Ah I thought you forgot. We met twice. Two of them I started first!” Jane


slightly raised her little lips. “About one year ago. At the hospital, remember?”


- FLASHBACKS



Justin saw the nurse change her bandages. Justin is a new trainee at The Hit. He tried hard to follow the ability of other trainees. Justin studied choreography almost every day. His training was too hard that makes him now two days have to stay in the hospital to treat his sprained ankle and muscle swelling. Justin can't walk around and needs the help of crutches or a wheelchair for that. The members took turns to look after Justin, but Justin insisted he did not want to be taken care of. It can be alone.


“Oh, the girl again..” Jay sees the same girl almost every day passing in Justin's room and glances at the


indoor. The girl carried an infusion pole that stuck to the back of her hand.


Justin raised his head trying to see who was outside the door, but it seemed to be a girl


it's gone.


It doesn't feel like it's almost noon, Jay has to get back to training. Justin insisted he wanted to take Jay in his wheelchair, but Jay limited him to the lobby.


“Bye, later tonight me and Hope will come.” Jay pinched Justin's cheek. The thing he hated.


Justin looked at Jay's back. It's getting away. Justin took control of the wheelchair and made it


turn around to go to his room. He met a girl. Justin passed by, but the girl kept her eyes on Justin.


“Hey, wait,” The girl said slowly. Make Justin look back and turn his wheelchair. “you


from room 221, right?” Ask. Justin looked at her and assumed that she was the girl Jay had seen earlier. “aku from 218. I'm Jane.” He held out his hand sign to shake hands. Justin grabbed his hand and shook it.


“Justin.” Said slowly.


-END OF FLASHBACK


Justin remembers it now. Jane is the girl from the next room who got food poisoning. He should


it was copied for a few days. Jane used to take Justin around the hospital. Jane said she was lonely there. His friends are only elderly or small children who will certainly play with relatives or parents who always visit him.


Jane takes Justin to the back garden of the hospital to see the beautiful woman singing


with his guitar instead of taking a prayer class with seniors. Jane shares a crayon and colored pencil with Justin and draws together in Justin's room. Jane is also the one who invites Justin around the hospital at night for just ‘jurit malam’-style horror film that then fails because the nurses always catch their wet and tell them to go back to their roomsrespectively.


It was a short week. Justin also remembered that the day he was allowed to go home, he had not had time to say goodbye to Jane. He just left and forgot about Jane.

Hope ran towards the room where Mary was. Hope opened the room and found Mary


alone and looking at his laptop.


“What's up?” Ask Mary.


“I was a few days ago drunk, huh?” ask Hope. Makes Mary remember the incident. The day


he had to drag Hope and take her up the stairs of his apartment on the third floor.


“Ah. yes!” Mary closed her laptop a little. “Kan told you not to drink!”


“Sorry yes..” Hope sits in front of Mary.


“Continue? Said Sejin I fell asleep in your apartment?” Hope was curious about what happened. Agust and Jimmy arrive and blend in. Agust sat down next to Mary, and Jimmy sat down next to Hope.


“Iya. Sejin. That's why I have to drive you early in the morning. You're still sleeping inside


taxi,” clear Mary. Hope rounded her mouth while nodding slowly. Suddenly Agust leaned his head to Mary's laptop screen.


“What are you working on?” tanyakanya.


“This, I helped the advertising team for promotion.” Mary shifts her laptop so that Agust can see


evidently. Hope and Jimmy just keep waiting for Mary to turn over her laptop. “How else ya how to promote you guys?” Mary stroked her chin, thinking.


“Ey.. Sejin would say you don't have to do this.” Hope flipped her laptop back to Mary. It


just saw Mary design a website that she would make fansite.


“Iya. Not that you're our manager and personal manager Justin, huh?” Jimmy scrunched his forehead.


Mary realized someone next to her was looking at her. Mary turned her head, “What?”


“You...” Agust who looked at him opened his voice. “who are you really?”
