Chagyeom furrowed his eyebrows. There was reluctance in his eyes at Sugyeom’s proposal. Though Sugyeom beforehand hated their coupling, it could not have been nice for Chagyeom both.

Nevertheless, it could not be helped. The year-end Gayo Daejeon had a a lot increased viewership than different applications, so that they could not simply simply blow it off.

In different phrases, in the event that they wished to catch essentially the most consideration, they needed to begin from Cheonggyecheon.

“Let’s do it, okay? The choreography does not change anyway, solely our actions go somewhat deeper.”

“…Okay.”

Chagyeom replied hesitantly. Though he did not appear receptive to the concept, Sugyeom was relieved when he heard his reply.

“Then let’s observe! Come on.”

“Hyung, are you positive you are okay? I feel you fell down fairly laborious. Even now, do not you assume it’s best to go to the hospital?”

“Sure, I am actually positive. Thanks on your concern.”

At Hansol’s comment displaying concern, Sugyeom smiled at him.

What he stated wasn’t a lie. Everybody had stated that he fell, however he felt so positive that he doubted if it had actually occurred.

He recalled falling down the steps, however it appeared to don’t have anything to do together with his present life, so he thought he might ignore it.

His situation really felt pretty much as good as new. Not solely was his physique positive, however it was vigorous as if he had gained a brand new physique.

Nicely, extra particularly, he turned 5 years youthful instantly, so it wasn’t fully improper.

“Come on, everybody prepare!”

Sugyeom shouted energetically as he performed the tune that was deliberate for the Gayo Daejeon on a pocket book.

Though the opposite members nonetheless confirmed frightened faces, when the tune got here on, they naturally began the pre-arranged choreography.

He additionally shortly discovered his rank among the many members after turning on the music.

Fortuitously, maybe as a result of his physique remembers the choreography, however there was no awkwardness in his actions despite the fact that it had been 5 years.

Whiii–

Together with a harsh sound, a chilly breeze blew in the direction of a ready space. In consequence, U-PITE’s workers that had been on standby inside shrieked.

Sugyeom, whose complete physique was wrapped in a pink blanket, was additionally shivering helplessly within the freezing chilly.

“Taewon-hyung, please test if my nostril is gone.”

Sugyeom stated playfully to Taewon subsequent to him.

Since his days as a trainee, the 2 had at all times been shut. Playful banter with Taewon who had taken care of him like his personal brother was his solely pleasure when he was nonetheless a trainee.

“Huh, your nostril was blown over there.”

“Ah, you are proper!”

Sugyeom burst into laughter and tapped Taewon on the shoulder in response. He was the one who began it, however he had discovered it humorous to obtain it so naturally.

Nevertheless, he could not proceed laughing due to the really fierce wind that appeared to have blown his nostril away as Taewon had stated.

He touched his nostril together with his hand whereas holding a warmth pack. The feeling on the tip of his nostril was lengthy gone within the biting chilly.

It was bearable throughout rehearsals as a result of the solar was nonetheless out, however the Gayo Daejeon began at night time when the solar had set. In consequence, his physique felt colder now than in the course of the day.

There have been naturally tents and huge heaters positioned on web site, however the climate was so chilly that there was a restrict to its effectiveness.

Up to now, he would have cursed broadcasters who would push forward with an outside stage in such climate. Nevertheless, now it meant nothing to him who was going to take the stage once more after 5 years.

“Wow, it is very nice.”

“How will you say it is good despite the fact that it is this chilly?”

Taewon responded as if he was dumbstruck.

In any case, Sugyeom was initially very delicate to the chilly. He was so weak to the purpose he would utterly wrap himself on days that weren’t chilly. As such, it was shocking he would say it was good at present the place it was no completely different from being in a freezer.

Nevertheless, he was really pleased.

He had thought taking the stage once more was only a distant reminiscence for somebody like him. However now he was given one other likelihood. With Taewon who he was near no much less.

His coronary heart throbbed once more. He did not know the way such a miracle might occur. To him who had thought all the pieces was over, it nonetheless felt like a dream that such an undeserved alternative had come.

“It is good. To have the ability to carry out on stage on the finish of the yr. I had actually, actually, wished to carry out on stage with hyung.”

“Hey, why are you giving me goosebumps? Do not idiot round. I have already got goosebumps from the chilly.”

Taewon exaggeratedly slapped Sugyeom’s arm.

His response was comprehensible. Sugyeom’s persona was initially an individual who could not say something that was embarrassing. Even saying thanks, I am sorry, or I like you. It was all just too troublesome for him.

Nevertheless, Sugyeom’s coronary heart had modified after his rebirth. With a brand new lease on life, he did not need to disguise his overflowing feelings. He had already realized the bitter remorse of what he could not say.

He smiled at Taewon.

“I am not playing around. Why would I joke about this? It is too good to be true. I can not consider I am with hyung like this. It appears like a dream to have the ability to carry out on stage with my favourite hyung.”

“…What, actually.”

Taewon seemed away, embarrassed by Sugyeom’s sudden phrases.

Sugyeom quietly smiled at his response whereas pondering why he can be embarrassed over nothing.

In consequence, there was an uncommon silence between the 2.

He had no alternative however to endure the awkwardness in agony, questioning why Taewon was so embarrassed.

“Hey, Chagyeom! Chagyeom!”

Sugyeom fortunately referred to as out to Chagyeom when he noticed him coming into the ready space. He was a very good prey for him to flee the present awkward silence with Taewon.

Since he was sporting an extended padded jacket that reached his ankles and was wrapped in a number of layers of blankets, he waddled in the direction of Chagyeom like a penguin.

And due to the pink blankets that matched his pink hair, it appeared as if an enormous pink doll was transferring.

“Why did you name me?”

Chagyeom’s tone contrasted Sugyeom’s pleased greeting. Up to now, Sugyeom would not have taken the initiative to talk to him as a result of he disliked Chagyeom’s method of talking, however it was completely different now.

In any case, there was nothing to be bothered by in a state of affairs the place they’d determined to draw consideration on stage with a bang. And since he had determined to simply accept his position as a ‘backside,’ it was higher to proceed to have a very good relationship with Chagyeom any longer.

Chagyeom’s method of talking turned much less of a priority from the second he had determined to turn out to be a pair.

“I referred to as you to say let’s do nicely.”

“What?”

Sugyeom tilted his head when Chagyeom raised his voice as if he was stunned.

Was it bizarre to say they need to do nicely on stage later?

“Why are you so stunned?”

“…”

Though Sugyeom had requested together with his eyes large open, Chagyeom did not reply.

Chagyeom who had turn out to be tight-lipped as he narrowed his brow, Sugyeom clicked his tongue inwardly. At any fee, he knew it might be troublesome to regulate to Chagyeom’s tempo.

Chagyeom’s shell was considerably laborious to crack, however looking back, he was a moderately type and respectable man. Realizing that reality, Sugyeom smiled brightly at him.

“I imply, please care for me. We are the Gyeom-Gyeom couple!”

“…”

Sugyeom had even talked about the official ‘Gyeom-Gyeom’ coupling and stated to care for him, however Chagyeom did not say something this time both.

Feeling awkward by Chagyeom’s response, he tried to scratch his well-set hair, however shortly lowered his hand when he sensed the eyes of the hair stylist’s noona staring fiercely at him.

“U-PITE, prepare.”

A stage workers of the Gayo Daejeon entered U-PITE’s tent and stated.

“Sure!”

Sugyeom replied with pleasure to flee the awkward state of affairs.

Taking off the mink blankets and the lengthy padded jacket, he left the ready space with fast steps.

On stage, a ballad duet grew louder because it headed in the direction of the climax of their tune.

Following after was a collaborative efficiency by members of various woman teams on the primary stage. The efficiency from the primary stage was to be broadcast dwell on display screen.

And eventually it might be U-PITE’s flip.

Whereas ready for his or her flip, Sugyeom repeatedly hopped in place to beat the chilly.

His stage costume was a deep-cut white silk shirt and a pink tartan sample swimsuit on high.

“Hey, Tune Sugyeom. Keep subsequent to me.”

Chagyeom grabbed Sugyeom’s arm and pulled him nearer when he noticed Sugyeom shivering like a pet within the rain. Sugyeom widened his eyes on the sudden motion, however quickly smiled wryly when he thought that what he had stated earlier had labored.

“Thanks.”

Sugyeom stood near him. Heat rose little by little across the space the place they touched. By the point the heat progressively unfold,

“U-PITE, go up!”

The cue signal from a workers of Gayo Daejeon fell.

Sugyeom put a dangling earpiece from his neck round his ear.

It was time to start once more the stage he had desperately wished for.
