summary: Hangeng recalls why he was in a foreign land doing hardwork.
Hangeng’s Point of View
When I first came to this foreign land, I wasn’t sure of what I was expecting to see; all I know is that it was the road that will lead me to my dreams and ambitions. I knew nothing about the language, knew nothing about the culture… knew nothing at all. I brought with me no family nor friends to keep company, just my pure will and determination as well as all the values that my parents and homeland had taught me.
They said I have talents and bested out a lot of competitors, I broke a lot of grounds and traditions, it was hard, challenging and tormenting.. but I managed to cope with them..
The first time I set my eyes on you, I was star-strucked, my jaws dropped in awe. I never knew a goddess could exist, yet I was wrong, you stood before me. I heard a couple of guys that you are the famous Heechul, princess of this agency. Moreover, you were the sweetheart of the CEO’s son, Siwon.
I knew then and there that I could only stare at and admire you from afar, besides, you belong in a debuted group, I was a mere trainee. But there were times I had chances of watching you practice your dance routines, there I realized why they call you Princess, the way you sing and dance make any guy fall for you… I sure did.
I remember our first conversation, I was one of the lucky guys to back dance for your concert. You said “hi”, I replied with my crappy Hangul.. I just learned to speak! But you giggled so seductively, my jaws drop. You said I was cute.. yeah I remember that.. “having a Chinese guy is not so bad.. work with your Hangul, ok?” that was our first conversation, I thought it was the last!
The concert lasted for three months from preparation to actual tour, each day I saw you practice, perform, rehearse, cry.. I admired every aspects and views.. I knew I fell hard, when I began to feel awkward.. nervous.. and act silly.. stutter with my own words.. and everything else I couldn’t explain. Is it love? Perhaps.
I shy away for I am humiliating myself in front of you; I have my pride too. And so I built a wall around me, my safe fortress that no one can break or shatter; I thought I was safe and unrecognizable but I was wrong.
Each day, you would always greet me with your smile and your casual hello’s and how are you’s. Every day, you made sure I wasn’t too stressed or that I am not overworking myself. And you would always do that until my debut. Since I performed overseas more often, I never get to see you that often, I heard you broke up with your sweetheart. I wanted to cheer you up during those days… but I was so far, and all I can do was pray.
When I came back to have some rest from all the schedules, I was greeted with a happy smile. You were smiling and you hugged me tight, I hugged back. I never understood why you wanted to talk to me that day, maybe you were depressed with the break up, until you I felt those awaited lips of yours on mine, and next thing I knew, there were couples’ rings and paparazzi.
Is this real? Am I dreaming?
And so looking back, I now know why I am still here in a foreign land, working hard at everything. Because every time I see you smile, I knew that those are only for me, for I am your prince, and you are mine to keep forever..
A/N: I hope this is ok.. I’m sorry.. I’m back to being an angsty writer [Geng’s situation’s got me to it]..
and if you want I can make a Heechul POV.. ^_^
