Taehyung's POV

I sighed as i gathered all my materials such as a notebook , my script , a portable charger and a pen, shoving into my gucci bag .

"Are you ready ?" Seokjin Hyung asked and i answered with a hum , taking my phone and putting it in the back pocket of my ripped jeans.

Both of us left the room and went to the carpark , ready to head towards the same theatre to practice with the other casts since everyone was in agreement about our director's granddaughter's party gig .

On the car , i flipped open the script and did some last minute reading , trying to memorise all the words which seemed almost impossible too due to the lengthy text .  I groaned , rubbing my temples whenever i made the same mistake along the same line when the prince was in the ballroom talking to cinderella .

"Is it really hard ?" Seokjin hyung asked as his eyes were still fixed on the road .

" if i can memorise all of this , pigs would be flying ." I rolled my eyes before repeating the same sentence again and again , hopefully able to not screw up later on and embarrass myself .

"Hyung , can—"  i was about to ask him for a favour , but i guess I shouldn't burden him when its my own responsibility .

"Nevermind." I sighed again .

——

"Nevermind."

Jungkook said as i walked into the room , he waved , telling me to come over to him . "He's here now , i dont have to call him anymore ." He continued his sentence as the other two girls just nodded silently , eyes still fixed on their respective scripts .

"Hyung , did you manage to remember everything yet?" The younger male asked and i shook my head before plopping down beside him .

"Should we have a run through today ? I mean — we have received this play and script for some time already , we need to see how slow or fast we are moving along ." Claire commented and everyone nodded , agreeing with her .

I pursed my lips before heading up to the stage and leaving my script on the floor while Jin sat somewhere near it . He took out his phone and had the camera pointed towards me.

We had a narrator hired as well and after he had said his piece , the first scene rolled in and i saw Mackenzie pretending to be dusting tables and doing house chores , being bossed around by her step mother and step sisters .

To be honest, she was really professional and good too . It was a good thing that she was no longer that clingy and crazy about me anymore .

"Mother , im going to the ball tonight too , right ? " she looked to her left and pretended to be facing the step mother , talking to herself in reality .

"You? You're staying at home to wash the dishes, scrub the floors and change the bed sheets for your stepsisters."  The narrator helped to chime in , reading the step mother's line .

"But ... every girl in this town is invited ! I can't miss this chance ! Please , mother ! " she pleaded with exaggeration .

" No ."

"Okay ! First scene is alright ." Claire shouted and gave a thumbs up to Mackenzie and both of them let out a smile , knowing that she didnt screw up anything and her emotions were there .

"Since only Taehyung and Mackenzie is here , should we just go through the scenes with the two of them and skip the others first ?" Jungkook suggested and i nodded , taking my place on the stage .

It was the scene at the ball and i was told to look surprised and shocked to have seen such a beauty in the ballroom .

" I have never seen you around here before , new arent you ?" I let out a small smile while holding onto Mackenzie 's hand which she gladly accepted .

"I dont usually come to events like this ." she chuckled and played with the hem of her non - existent ballgown .

"You look so stunning tonight . May i have a dance with you ?" I bowed and brought her to the center of the stage before halting .

"I still hadnt learn how to dance yet ." I coughed twice and all of them just looked at me disappointed . "Hyung , you need to be serious for this . We dont have much time to practice ." Jungkook looked slightly irritated as if the fact that i didnt know how to dance had irked him , implying that i had no professionalism at all .

"Well , im not a natural at dancing and it aint my fault alright ?!" I exclaimed before going down the stage , leaving to take a sip of water .

"I'll come back for the next scene instead. Five minute break for everyone ." I announced and made the call , taking a break from everything .
