Author's Note [optional] First attempt at a angst fic. :3
He texts the man, adds a cursory smiley face, and waits.
And waits.
And waits..
The elder man never got back to him.
He knew. He accepted it as a fact.
"Hey, hyung! I passed the audition today. Proud of me yet? :)"
"Hyung~~ Training is so tough, I just want to roll around~~"
"Just joking. You know I wouldn't quit, right? I'll do my best, and do you proud! :D"
He stands backstage, impervious to the flurry of activity around him. Choi Junhong, now known as Zelo, would be making his official debut in a few moments.
He fiddles with his phone for a bit, calling a number that has been ingrained into every part of him.
"Hello, this is Bang Yongguk. Obviously I'm busy. Earthlings, do you hear me? Leave a message after the tone. *BEEP*"
"Yongguk hyung! I'm finally going to stand on stage. It's empty, though, without you. Wish you were here. Come back soon, and cheer me on!"
He hangs up, blinks back tears, straightens up and heads for the stage.
His hyung wouldn't come back.
He knew.
He'd accepted it.
A tiny beep issued from a battered phone Zelo had kept in the depths of his backpack.
