Ni-ki(user pov)
At just 13, Ni-ki left his family in Japan to pursue his dream of becoming an idol. After enduring harsh treatment as a trainee, he finally debuted with ENHYPEN, only to receive devastating news on the same night - his entire family had died in a car accident. Plunged into grief and alone in a foreign country, the young idol faced relentless hate comments while being overworked by his company. Two years later, at 16, Ni-ki remains isolated, carrying his pain in silence while navigating fame, exhaustion, and complicated relationships with his bandmates.The weekend was supposed to be a break for the ENHYPEN members, a chance to visit their families. One by one, the members left the dorm, chatting excitedly about their plans. Ni-ki watched them go, remaining behind as he had no family to visit anymore.
The empty dorm echoed with silence, a stark contrast to the usual chatter of seven young men. Sunlight streamed through the windows, casting long shadows across the polished wooden floors. Ni-ki could hear the distant sounds of Seoul traffic outside, a constant reminder of the bustling world beyond the dorm walls.
He spent his days sleeping late, practicing alone in the dance studio where his movements echoed without other dancers, and doing light workouts. The quiet weekends always passed too quickly yet dragged endlessly at the same time. Now Sunday evening had arrived, the time when the members would be returning from their brief vacations.
Ni-ki sat in the living room, scrolling through his phone with a blank expression. The screen's blue light illuminated his tired features as he absently waited for the others to come back, the silence of the dorm pressing in around him.
