Continuation...

Taeyang is stunned as to how beautiful Jessica is even in a simple casual wear - shiny blonde hair down, less make up, floral top blouse and pair of jeans. He’s sent back to reality when Jessica calls his name

Jessica:           Mr. Taeyang, I believe we have to go.

Taeyang:         Oh sorry, yes Madam…

At the center of the staircase; Taeyang leaves Jessica – in her surprise – remains standing and hears Heechul speaks…

Heechul:          (in complete admiration of how Jessica looks even in a simpler get up – stutters) uhhmm…
                         L.L..Ladies and Gentlemen, let me welcome you Ms. Jessica Pierre, the lady responsible
                         to conclude the business venture successfully.

All visitors’ eyes direct to Jessica's attention and daze at how beautiful she is. For some of them; they already know who Jessica is due to the fact that aside from being famous as a celebrity, she’s also respected in the business community worldwide. Heechul signals Jessica to come to the podium stand and deliver some speech.

Taeyang guides Jessica to the podium and stands alongside Heechul and Jessica. While Jessica speaks; Heechul can not stop staring at how beautiful she is, inadvertently puts his hands on Jessica’s waist – much to her surprise – searches Heechul’s hand and pinches it. Taeyang witnessing what is going on could not stop himself from chuckling and be amused. After Jessica speaks, she says

Jessica:           Prince Heechul; next time, watch your hand where it is going.

And Heechul as always is left speechless…watching Jessica sits at a table nearby. He is also surprised by his actions but smiles.

As to Jessica – she is also wondering what just happened and sent back from a ponder trance when she is grouped by socialite ladies saying

Girl #1:            Are you trying to seduce Heechul?

Girl #2:            He is not in your level, stay away from him!

Girl #3:            Do you think he likes you? Look at you!

Jessica:           (in full shock, thinks “whoa, he has followings amidst his skunk behavior?) Do you all like
                        Heechul?

All Girls:           (says in chorus beaming with such lovely mood expressions) Yes, He is so perfect! It is
                        every woman’s ultimate dream.

Girl #4:            And you, Ms. Jessica, are so beneath Heechul.

Heechul:          Is that so?

All the ladies are shocked upon hearing Heechul’s voice and immediately turn love struck, go to Heechul providing all the best service every one of them can offer – leaving Jessica dumbfounded. Each girl puts their best foot forward in pleasing Heechul and after all of them look sharply at Jessica to emphasize their actions as “STAY AWAY”. Jessica stares at Heechul and can not fathom the annoyance of how Heechul beams at her widely saying

Heechul:          (To annoy Jessica) I think you are so hated by now. It is pretty obvious it is not my fault
                        that I look so this exceptionally stunning.

Jessica:           (Thinks; “what the heck is this” but decides to maintain her cool; yawns and turns backward
                        from Heechul saying) Ho-hum, yeah…whatever not interested and am so out here by
                        tomorrow…

 Heechul irritated by Jessica’s response; gets up and grabs her shoulders saying

                      Heechul:         Stay still when am talking to you!

Jessica in full scale irritation strongly releases Heechul’s hold on her shoulder saying

Jessica:           HEY YOU CONCEITED HEECHUL! DON’T COUNT ME IN AS SOMEONE WHO WILL
                        ALSO BLINDLY ADORE YOU. LIKE HELL I CARE WHO YOU ARE! AM DONE WITH MY
                        BUSINESS HERE SO STAY AWAY FROM ME!!

Heechul:          How dare you talk to me like that! (Gets her purse and throws it)

Some visitors are shocked but others take delight at the scene unfolding them. Most of the visitors know Heechul and Jessica’s behavior primarily everyone knows about Jessica’s feisty character when challenged

Visitor #1:     "Oh my god, look at the behavior of that woman – she is so beautiful but her character is so 
                      wild"

Visitor #2:     "We are kind of used to her – you should have seen her shoving someone’s face on the
                      floor"

Visitor #3:     "Oh, really?"

Visitor #4:     "Want a shoe for a gift? It will land on your face as you wanted – when pissed."

Visitor #5:     "Poor Heechul, he doesn’t know where he is getting himself into"

Visitor #6:      "Don’t try to interfere – just watch. It will just end accordingly."

Continuing with the scenario, visitors are just left to watch the whole scene pass by to end…

Jessica:           ###?@ YOU!! Dared ttoo thhhrrooww mmyyy ddadd’s ggiift …

Heechul:          heheheh I guess you are checkmate..

Visitor #5:        Watch This!! Oh, Heechul – there she goes…

Jessica:           comes near to Heechul - fixes his hair-straightens his tie then suddenly punches his
                        stomach, kicks his shin and pushes him to the floor.

Visitor #6:        That is what we are talking about (High fives to Visitor #5). I really admire this woman’s
                        feistiness – I find it so endearing and admiring. You seldom see a woman like that. How I 
                        wish am on Heechul’s shoes right now but not acting like Heechul.

Jessica:           (When she sees the ladies wanting to attack her. With Jessica’s ice stare) don’t you dare
                        touch me coz if you do. You will suffer the wrath I have been holding on for quite some
                        time now. Just to let you know – am just in my 40% degree scale annoyance. If you wish to
                        switch me to full maximum irritation level – I will gladly give you ladies. Want to try?

 All the ladies put into a halt condition and gasped… Upon finishing her statement, she leaves the party saying

Jessica:           Everyone, I apologize for the disturbance but I need to go and take a nap. Enjoy!! (winks
                        and leaves)

Taeyang seeing Heechul in a dreadful situation, hurries up to straighten Heechul but could not hide her amazement towards Jessica as someone who matches Heechul’s superiorly proud character.

Taeyang:         Sir Heechul, are you alright?

Heechul:          Is she always like that?

Taeyang:         I wish I know sir but you can ask your visitors. Most of them know who Ms. Jessica is…

Heechul:          No wonder nobody acted so surprised by the whole scenario.

As Heechul excuses himself temporarily at the party to change his outfit, he could not contain himself from wondering – what the heck just happened. Meanwhile Taeyang calls someone…then after closes and smiles…

Taeyang:         So, the saga continues…
