Chapter 1046: This Is It
"This is it," Akira dramatically said. "DAWN's final performance of the year. The group had done everything to keep the members together, and they have come so far."
"From surviving a show together and now putting on countless performances, DAWN are known as living legends! They have become the top grossing idols with only a little over a year into their career, and a lot of people are anticipating what the future will hold. Oh, what a journey it has been. Who knew it would come to this?" he even fake sobbed.
"The end is near now-"
"Ouch!"
His dramatic monologue was cut short when Jaeyong slapped the back of his head.
Jaeyong shook his head as he stood from the couch. "You're acting as if our career is coming to a close."
"It kind of is," Akira muttered. "It would be a while before we get to see our fans again."
"That's not true," Jisung said, shaking his head. "We'll always be engraved in their hearts! They're already used to us, and when they miss us, they can just look back on everything we've done. It's been written on paper. There's also plenty of videos online."
"I guess all things are temporary," Casper said before pursing his lips. "We can't keep doing this forever, you know?"
Ren sighed. "You're also acting as if this is a goodbye! It's really not. We're even going to resume our tour by next year."
June watched them with amusement. "Come on now," he said. "We're up next."
The boys snapped out of their sentimental facades and put on their game faces as they walked
to the stage-the place where they all belonged. They weren't the last performers of the night, especially since there were a lot of senior artists present for the night.
However, they might as well be.
The door creaked open, and a staff member poked their head inside. "It's time."
The room fell silent for a brief second before everyone straightened up. No words were exchanged as they moved together. As the door clicked shut behind them, they were greeted by the roar of the crowd beyond the stage.
"DAWN!"
"DAWN!"
The crowd stretched as far as the eye could see. June couldn't make out every individual, but he didn't need to. What he saw was enough-their joy and excitement.
It was surreal. The moment hit him all at once, leaving him breathless.
This wasn't just about their performance or their success. This was about every struggle they had endured, every challenge they had overcome, every bond they had forged. It was about the people who believed in them, who supported them even when the odds were against
them.
June's gaze swept across the stage, landing on his teammates. They stood there, shoulders squared and heads high.
The music started. June took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling in time with the rhythm. He stepped forward. The crowd's cheers rose and fell-a living, breathing entity that fed off their energy and gave it back thousandfold.
And yet, amidst the lights and the noise, a quiet thought settled in June's mind. It really did feel like the end, like the culmination of everything they had worked for. But as the final note rang out, as the lights dimmed and the cheers echoed into the night, June knew better.
This wasn't the end.
It was the beginning.
As they stood there, June turned to his teammates. Their faces were flushed with exertion, but the smiles never left their lips.
If you asked the world (or maybe even Fu), June had become the top idol-a title many dreamed of but few achieved.
But if you asked him, he had gained something far greater.
He had found his family, his purpose, his place in the world.
And he wouldn't have it any other way.
END.
