To say she's nervous is an understatement.

  Jang Risa is terrified.   She is standing at the back, near the door, while her favorite idol group, Infinite, was being interviewed by the press. On her hand is a small black paper bag she had prepared for Kim Sunggyu. She had been pondering on what to give him. To buy expensive clothes, gadgets or accessories was never an option and she wasn't artistic enough to draw something for him so being the music geek that she is, she decided to give him an iPod. A limited edition fiery red Nano.   Over the past few days, amidst her busy work schedule, she had carefully selected songs she want Sunggyu to listen to when he's bored, when he's in between flights or in long car rides. She ended up naming the iPod "Benny", after his character in the musical he is currently acting in and she had the words "Be happy." engraved at the back it. She finished synching music to the iPod a couple of days ago and she is very happy with the list she made. From Arctic Monkey's Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High to Switchfoot's You to The Beatle's Something. The range of music in this little thing is massive and she hopes that he'll like it.   Shouts of "Kamsahamnida!" cut off her thoughts and she noticed that the boys have stood up from their seats and bowed to the press. Things happened so fast and the staff were in a hurry, instructing the boys to quickly move to the next room to change outfits. After the bows and quick goodbyes, Infinite were heading towards her, towards the door where she is standing quietly. Sungyeol was the first one to pass her, followed by Dongwoo and Hoya. And after almost everyone had gone out the door, her eyes were searching for that small-eyed leader and when he found him, she almost lost her confidence. She waited for this moment but she were having second thoughts in giving him this gift.   "Will he listen to it?" "Will he even open this paper bag?" What the heck, I might not get this chance ever.   Just as he was about to exit the door, Risa blocked his way, in which Sunngyu yelped "Oh!", clearly shocked by her appearance in front of him. Seconds passed and she stood there, frozen, in front of him, all thoughts gone when she saw his flawless face. His small smile brought her back to her senses and she quickly shoved the paper bag in his hands. She turned away from him and walked towards the concert venue. Her hands still cold from her short encounter with him.    "Risa!" She turned her head towards her right when someone shouted her name. Standing by the entrance of the venue, was her close friend, Jina. "I saw what you did out there!" "I can't believe I embarrassed myself like that!" Risa can't help but cover her face with her hands. "But it was cute, you hipster!" "Shut up. My hands are still shaking. Did I... Did I really give him an iPod?" "Yeah, yeah you did." "Ohmygosh, How am I going to watch this concert?" "With your eyes, of course!" "Stop being a smartass!"  "C'mon now, let's just enjoy this concert. They're about to start." Jina grinned, took the older girl's arm and led her to their seats.   All throughout the concert, her eyes never left Sunggyu and when he spotted her once, while singing 마주보며 서 있어, he gave her the same gentle smile he had given when she was standing in front of him.   Upon seeing that smile, she realized how worthy Sunggyu is. All the effort, the songs and just the experience was so worth Sunggyu's gentle smile.    Her heart is hoping, praying, wishing that even just once, he will listen to the songs on that fiery red Nano.   ~~~~♥ ♥ ♥ ~~~~   To say he is tired was a big joke.   Kim Sunggyu is exhausted.   Aside from the tour and the musical, he also has filming to do. It was never easy but he's really happy doing what he loves to do. But when he entered his room and s
