Its easy to ignore the world. It always has been.
You werenβt a stranger to pretending that peopleβs comments didnβt affect you as much as they did. Masking your feelings was something you were good at. While that was a skill, it also proved to be a factor leading to your downfall.Β
You, Y/N L/N, were the star player of Hybe Academyβs womenβs basketball team.Β
Your parents first realised that you had a special talent for basketball when you were just 4 years old.Β
It wasnβt very often you saw a 4-year-old score a clean goal, the swish of the net echoing through the silence in the room as your parents stood there stunned. While most parents wouldβve cheered, caught the moment on camera and laughed it off as luck, yours took it as a message from the universe to sign you up for basketball lessons.
You loved the adrenaline. You loved being a part of a team.Β
