“Goodluck on your performance today, Kanemoto! Don't think of anything else for the meantime” Hyunsuk cheered him up from his dressing room.

“Thank you, Choi. You too” he said with a smile.

“Hyunsuk, you will be performing next, we need you on the backstage already” Ryujin called Hyunsuk.

“Yosh, we'll call you when you are next, please standby” Ryujin instructed. Yoshi smiled, getting everything what she said.

The japanese was wearing a simple oversized jeans with squared buckle belt. To pair the jeans, he was wearing a sky blue stripped long sleeved polo shirt topped with a gray cropped top sweater. (you can look at the reference photo above ^^ just imagine it with the black thick framed specs)

He was sitting in front of a big mirror with light bulbs around it, looking at his reflection on the mirror, having a lot of thoughts inside his head.

“Just enjoy the performance, Yosh. It will be alright, everything will be fine” He had been pursuasing himself that he can really do it.

Although he knows that he can, there was still worries inside him.

Yoshi was too drawn on his thoughts that he didn't noticed when the door on his dressing room opened, revealing a CEO on his suit as he knocked on the door.

“Mr. Watanabe, what bring you here?” He immediately stood up and bowed as soon as he found the CEO on his door.

“Hey, there's no need to be formal around. I'm just a bit younger than you, consider me as your friend already” the CEO insisted.

“Okay then, Haruto” the other japanese joked which made the both of them chuckled.

“Well, that's better than my surname”

“Uhm, what brings you here? Is there any problem?” he worriedly asked.

“There none but I just want to thank you for agreeing with my request. I know it's hard for you and it's a bit pressuring to perform after you know, before”

“No worries. Besides, this is also a goof opportunity to clear my name. I have been so drawn to that disaster on the past that I let so many opportunities passed me. Come to think of it, it was such a waste”

“You're doing great, hyung”

As he heard that remark, he couldn't help  but to remember how it was the same words Junghwan would use to lift up his mood.

Now that he thought of it, he suddenly felt like missing him. It's been almost a week.

“I also heard about what happened on the rehearsal, did my staff pushed you so much?” the japanese CEO worriedly asked him.

“N-no.. i-it's my own emotions that came out that day. It's no one's fault”

“Sorry hyung, I have been hospitalize that day. I should've visited you that day” Haruto said with disappointment in his voice.

Yoshi couldn't help but to tap his shoulders because it was really not his fault.

“Wait, you we're hospitalized? Why?”

“My fiancé said it was because I was overfatigued and well, I was diagnosed with gastric ulcer”

“Poor guy”

“It's okay though. My fiancé had been taking care of me. I am good as new now”

Yoshi smiled hearing about his fiancé. He could see how he truly loves him because of how genuine his smile is.

“It must've been so good to have someone you love with you” Yoshi suddenly said that made the japanese CEO laugh.

“You'll have one soon, hyung. Trust me”

As the two were talking, a certain tanned male immediately entered the room, fuming in anger when he saw his soon to be husband on the room.

“Watanabe! I have been looking for you anywhere. It's time to eat your dinner, are you escaping from me again?!”

The two both looked at the same time to see who was the owner of the voice.

“Well, speaking of..” The CEO mumbled under his breath.

Yoshi's eyes widened when he saw Jeongwoo entered the room. And was walking towards the CEO.

“Baby, calm down. I am not escaping. I just want to check up on Yoshi hyung”

Jeongwoo's creased forehead turned into a happy face when he saw the producer looking all shocked and worried at the same time.

“B-baby? A—are you two..”

Yoshi's sentence didn't even finished when the CEO immediately po pulled the tanned male closer to him.

“He's my fiancé, Park Jeongwoo”

Yoshi couldn't even speak, wondering if the cafe owner had already knew about this.

“Yoshi, you are performing already” Ryujin yelled from the outside of the dressing room.

When her eyes landed on the two, Ryujin immediately greeted them. After the short meeting, she led the way to backstage.

“Goodluck Yosh, you can do it!” Ryujin cheered him up.

Yoshi just smiled as he took the microphone from Ryujin's hand.

“Thank you so much for your spectacular performance, Dave! And now, for our next performer. We are so lucky that he gave us the opportunity to hear his angelic voice after a few years” the host said.

The japanese couldn't help but to smile as he heard the host.

“So I am not letting you all wait. Please welcome on stage, Mr. Kanemoto Yoshi, seranading us with his lovely voice!”

He started walking outside the backstage. He could hear loud cheers and screams from the audiences that somehow warms his heart.

He was glad that he was having a great feedbacks from people.

Yoshi turned to look at the band who smiled at him. A few seconds after, he heard the intro of the song was already playing.

He was preparing his emotions and heart, no matter what he see or hear tonight, he should keep his emotions at state.

That's all that matters tonight.
