Gladly
Idol: Miyawaki Sakura (Izone)
Request: No
Every parent would be glad to know that their child is dating a pretty and nice person. It just so happens that yours doesn’t like the idea
Tumblr media
“Hello?”
You wiped your eyes and sniffed, searching your pocket for the ringing before smiling when you heard her voice, clearing your throat before responding, “Hey,”
“Oh, it worked! Hey! Hi!”
“What’s got you all giggly” you asked your energetic girlfriend as she giggled through the call, happily saying hi to you in the ways she knew how to.
“I finally got to talk to my girlfriend, isn’t that reason enough?”
You hummed and smiled, biting your lip to prevent any hint to what you were feeling, “H-how’s work?” You cursed yourself for stuttering but thankfully Sakura was too happy to notice.
As she talked about her work you were left wandering the streets as you tried to get as far away from your house as possible, replying short responses to your girlfriend while you half listened and tried your best to hide the sniffling and whimpers coming from you.
But halfway through, Sakura noticed how your responses grew quieter, noticing how you kept clearing your throat and the wind blowing against the mic.
“Hey, you alright, are you out right now? I can hear the wind blowing,”
You winced a little at her words and tried to force a clear answer, “I’m f-fine”
“You know better that I would actually believe you right now, I could hear you sniffling, and your voice cracked” She pointed out and you cursed internally, in the years where Sakura was still in Japan, she knew your behavior. Throughout each date and night she spent with you, she learned how to read you like a book.
She knew how you behaved and how you acted when you were closing yourself off, she was observant, even if she was thousands of miles across the sea she could still read you through your voice.
“What’s wrong?”
She asked again and this time you audibly sniffed and wiped your tears from your face. “I-it’s—nevermind, I have to go,”
You didn’t know what came over you. Sakura was the only person you could talk to, your other friends were with you because you had the money, your parents are the worst people in the world, and your relatives are just like your parents.
You only had Sakura to go to whenever you were struggling but now that she is in Korea it became harder for you. The first year it was easy since you had all the time in the world for you two to video chat while she trained, but now that they’re getting popular, time has been a little restricted.
Of course you supported her all the way, but your life was getting harder and you couldn’t help but think that she was starting to drift away.
“No, no, no, you know you can ta—“
“Bye.”
You hung up effectively cutting her off before your knees buckled and you dropped on the sidewalk, a sob escaping your lips.
Meanwhile at the dorm Sakura looked at her phone and tried to call you back, but you didn’t answer. She couldn’t believe what was happening, it was the first time she pushed you out.
Because she thought she already broke that layer of yours, that you could tell her anything. But your phone becoming unavailable made her worries worse.
The whole night she was calling you, leaving texts and waiting for you to respond. She asked both Nako and Hitomi to text and call hoping you would answer but your phone was still turned off.
She even went far as to message her parents to ask if you had dropped by but they apologized and said that they would call if you ever stopped by.
You were pacing around the living room all night, if it wasn’t for Chaeyeon then she would have done it until you called, she didn’t care if you didn’t apologize or that you were mad at her. All she wanted to know was why you were crying.
It took a week.
A week with Sakura worrying while glaring holes in her phone to wait for you to call, she has been worrying so hard that the members and fans often noticed how much she has been sad lately. The girls did everything to make her mood brighten but they all knew that you were the only one to do that.
Then while they were at the dorm resting, the girls had a sleepover, she and Yena were playing when suddenly her special ringtone rang. She all but threw the controller to Yena and scrambled to answer her phone.
When she picked up the line was silent, except for the sounds of both your breathing.
“Hey,”
Sakura closed her eyes and released a sigh, it was relaxing to hear your voice again.
“H-hi,” she said back after a while opening her eyes and pulling her phone closer, as if it would bring you next to her right now. “Y/n—“
“Can you meet me at the park?”
You cut her off and Sakura flinched at your bluntness, “What do you mean? What park? Y/n where are you I’ve been c—“
“The park you’ve been telling me about, the one you and the girls spend a lot of time in,”
She furrowed her eyebrows thinking that you wouldn’t actually fly to Korea just to talk to her in person when you could call her or video chat. That’s when the thousands of scenarios came in her head on why you would call and ask her to meet in person.
Would you finally break up with her? Did you get tired of the long distance relationship? Didn’t she call you enough? What if she wasn’t—
“Hey, I’m fine, just please meet me here as soon as you can,”
Your voice softened as you tried to relax her knowing that she would be overthinking, “Alright, I’ll be there in 10” she said and you hummed in reply before hanging up.
Sakura stood up and went to her closet and grabbed her coat rushing out her room, past the girls where she rambled about where she was going and left in a heartbeat. She could finally see you after a week of not hearing nor seeing each other and she wouldn’t trade this opportunity for anything.
Running to the park she entered and stopped near the fountain, hands on her knees, catching her breath before she looked around. She pulled out her phone to call you but she heard an all too familiar voice beside her.
She snapped her head to her side and stared at your side profile looking unto the fountain. “Y/n, I—“
“I’m sorry,” you said first and looked down, glancing to the side and meeting eyes with your girlfriend through the reflection as you spoke. Holding her gaze softly before closing your eyes.
“I’m so sorry for acting the way I did, I’m sorry for ignoring you, and I’m sorry because I took it out on you,” you sighed again before glancing at her looking at her apologetically before you explained.
“My parents and I got into a fight, I know you know that they don’t really support us like yours does, they want me to focus on the business and date someone in that line of work but you know how stubborn I am.”
“I-ah, defended you and at some point I don’t know what happened but d-dad...he...slapped me” you muttered, clearing your throat and closed your eyes as you felt the teardrop on your cheeks.
“He yelled at me, called you names, and told me that I wouldn’t get far with you being by my side. I kept defending you until I had enough and ran away, I-I don’t know what came over me that day, I-I’m so sorry that I—“
“Shh, it’s alright, you don’t have to apologize” she pulled you into a hug and as soon as you felt her arms around you again, you melted.
It’s been so long since you felt her hold you that you let it out, burying your face in the crook of your neck as she held you and nuzzled your head, soothing your hair as she let you cry it out.
You wrapped your arms around her and pulled her closer, hugging her as tight as you can and she didn’t care if she was struggling to breathe, you needed her and that was all she wanted to do.
Once you’ve calmed you down, she pulled away and cupped your face wiping your tears with the pads of her thumbs while she gazed at you lovingly. Even when you cried you still looked amazing.
“I-I’m sorry,” you apologized and she shook her head before pulling you in, kissing you for the first time in what seemed like forever as your breath got sucked out and you melted more in her arms.
As much as you protected Sakura from your parents, she was also willing to protect you from them, and everything that hurt you.
What happened the past week was something she put behind her. All she cares about is you, you are the center of her world and she would rather lose everything in her life than lose you.
“I love you,”
“I love you too,”
She would protect you all her life and gladly you would too.

Top 20 Songs of 2020
Okay y’all, here’s my top kpop songs of 2020 list for this year (finally, good lord this year felt like an eternity). These are the 20 songs that I felt really made an impact on me this year and why 💕
Starting from last to first, here we go!
20. Dr. Bebe, Pentagon - this song deserved so much better tbh the music video was everything, their acting was excellent and the vocals were *chefs kiss* i also loved the dark, creepy vixx -reminiscent vibes
19. Back Door, Stray Kids - Ok like objectively i know that God’s Menu was like their piece de resistance this year, but Back Door was just so fun and had a great bass line and the choreo was SO good
18. Cry For Me, Twice - this literally JUST came out like two seconds ago but let me tell you cry for me has legit been stuck in my head from the SECOND i heard it just ask my sister she’s this close to killing me next time i sing the chorus
17. Red Sun, Dreamcatcher - Let’s be real, dreamcatcher’s entire studio album was perfect from start to finish, and red sun was a standout among that perfection for me like from the magical mystical instrumental to dami’s absolutely earth-shattering rap line, just absolute gold my dude
16. Kick It, NCT 127 - This was a very polarizing song for a lot of people i feel, but for me the concept was literally executed to perfection. It had so much potential to be cheesy and gimmicky, but it totally wasn’t and i think it’s because nct 127 committed SO wholeheartedly to the concept
15. So Bad, StayC - THIS song. I actually already had my list all written out when i discovered so bad by stayc and i literally had to reconsider my ENTIRE existence. They are so so good with such a talented production team backing them and they’ve literally just debuted.
14. Dun Dun, Everglow - A lot of people really hated this song, and don’t get me wrong i had my own issues with the line and screen time distribution for sure, but you can’t deny it’s a total banger
13. Nonstop, Oh My Girl - This is the kind of song that i never really expected to fall in love with. It’s bubbly and cute and quite like youthful, but oh my girl honestly pull that concept off so well and they had me immediately hypnotized
12. Be In Love, Itzy - 2020 was the year of bailey eating her own words aka the year of me falling in love with itzy. when itzy debuted i seriously thought if they stuck with their concept i probably wouldn’t ever be into their music but lmao. they showed me. anyway this b side is seriously underrated and it really shows the girls vocal talents off, especially lia and yuna
11. Love Killa, Monsta X - hyungwon. that’s it that’s the post . . . jk but for real, visuals popped off. love killa was exactly what i’ve been wanting from mx for the past year or so. they hit the nail right on the head with the this one.
10. Secret Story of the Swan, izone - my relationship with izone is basically like my relationship with itzy part 2. I always appreciated them for their talents and having a very recognizeable sound but i could never get into their music. then SSOTS happened, and to be honest it STILL gets stuck in my head at random times
9. Phobia, Stray Kids - i LOVE this b side. for a while i thought it might replace Voices as my favourite skz track, but it just didn’t have the longevity that voices does. that said, it’s still such a good song with an important message did i mention that i love stray kids
8. La Di Da, Everglow - i have said it before and i’ll say it again: no one is doing it like everglow. this song came so out of the blue and blindsided so many people with how unexpectedly different it was, all while being a certified banger. the line distribution is aMAZING, you get to hear each member’s unique flavor, the straight 80’s vibe is immaculate, the styling is God-tier, just . . . everything. i LOVE this comeback
7. Eternally, TXT - if you know me, you know i love a good beat switch-up (i mean, my ult group is stray kids for crying out loud) and ladies. this song is the switch up to end all switch ups. txt somehow managed to combine two completely different tracks, each of which would have been A+ songs all on their own, and somehow make something a million times better. listening to eternally is a whole experience in and of itself and i haven’t heard anything that could compare to it to this day
6. Girls, Nature - UGH. WHAT an underappreciated masterpiece. girls by nature does everything that other companies are so afraid to do with their girl groups: a strictly dark, horror concept, a haunting melodic line with no need for a rap breakdown because it stands on its own as is, a visual concept that does not sexualize the girls in any way but instead tells a story of a person at the mercy of the one they love. it’s e v e r y t h i n g. Not to mention the song has one of the best pre choruses i’ve EVER heard.
5. Wannabe, Itzy - Let’s be honest, you knew this was going to be here. Everyone and their grandma was learning ryujins shoulder move. this was literally the summer of itzy’s wannabe. This is actually the comeback that got me onboard the itzy train and now i’m barreling down the mountain going 200mph and can’t find the breaks
4. I Can’t Stop Me, Twice - I think onces really had no idea where this comeback was gonna go. after more and more got such mixed responses from fans, we all weren’t really sure what direction the company was going to take twice in next. personally, i’m SO happy they went for the retro synth 80’s vibe concept. it was current enough to fish in non fans and keep new onces engaged but they also added their own unique twice spice to it, and i’ve been playing it on repeat for weeks also stan risky risky wiggy wiggi
3. Oh My God, G Idle - Ahhhh, yes. another polarizing song from gidle. omg for me was exactly what i needed from gidle. They’d been playing around with the darker concepts but had never fully committed to the potential that i saw in their music, but with omg we finally got the see them go full out with it, and i don’t think ANYONE could have done it better. The drop while empty was somehow so satisfying, the visials in the mv were visceral and witchy and to think that soyeon wrote and produced such a masterpiece. all i can say is bravo
2. Daisy, Pentagon - if this song doesn’t hold a very special place in your universe heart then buddy i think it’s time to throw the whole heart away. daisy, on top of being the first song to earn pentagon a well deserved music show win, was so emotionally moving from the lyrics to the mv to the choreo. you don’t need to know korean to feel exactly what the writer is feeling when hui sings that chorus, and that my friend is true artistry.
1. Answer, Ateez - Bet you were expecting a stray kids song. answer though has had my whole entire heart body and soul from the second it came out all the way back in january. for it to last a whole year as my favourite song of 2020 really speaks volumes as to how incredibly talented ateez and their production team are. Over the course of this absolute shit year, this song really inspired me to push forward, to keep working toward my goals and to keep believing in myself, and i think that’s a pretty amazing feat for one single song.
Anyway y’all sorry for the unnecessarily long post. I’ve just been compiling this list for months and was really excited to share. If any of my followers or just anyone who reads through this wants to share their own list, id love to see what songs impacted you this year! Happy New Years’ yall!
