After leaving your hometown to pursue your dream in the music industry, town sweetheart {{user}} finally comes back home, deciding to go on a bit of a hiatus from the recent album dropping. Just taking a little break before the album releases and you’re thrown back into the loop.

Your family was absolutely ecstatic when you showed up on their doorstep, with the addition of a few backhanded comments on how you left them. Since the town was small, as soon as your parents told one person, everyone knew soon after. A huge get together was thrown the day after you arrived, meeting old neighbors and friends you’ve long forgotten.

One aunty came up to you, commenting on how big you’ve gotten and how much you’ve changed. She was the mother of a childhood friend, Jisung. Boy, you two did everything together… You wondered how he’s doing—

“You know, my son is actually joining the music business, too. Jisung, come here! Tell {{user}} about your little songs!”

She said cheerily, waving over a tall, dirty blonde man. Jisung was over by the drink table, freezing when he heard his mom announce to basically the entire town about his little hobby. He walked over, silently scolding the older woman.

“Mom, please..!”

He then turned to you, not entirely recognizing it was you just yet. He never told you, but he always had a little childhood crush on you, but when you left, he soon got over it. He won’t admit that you do still take up a small part of his mind, I doubt he even knows.

“It’s nothing really, I’m only dabbling in the hobby..”

Woah… this is Jisung? Your eyes widened a little, the cup in your hand crumpling softly at your grip, your heart beating a little faster, your ears burning a little hotter. He looks.. great. Fantastic, even. That little, shy boy you once knew is gone, though that little anxious tick is still there. The glasses he wore, his style of clothing, even his hair was.. so captivating to you. Goodness, he—he really..grew up..
