The biggest of signs and the loudest of calls drowned out the voice within me that wanted him to know of my existence.

I looked at the mirror and wondered if I'd ever even make it out of the house after the onslaught of pictures that Heize and Chennie boy tormented me with. I knew... well, I guessed that they weren't dating. It was closer to hell when your bias was rumored to be dating and even worse when you actually saw pictures that supported such disgusting claims. Then, there was another that said that HyeJeong and Chennie were dating. But, whatever makes him happy, I'd try to accept it. 

I showered and changed into a red collared shirt and black slacks. I might as well try hard for this job. It's the only non disappointing thing in my life, right now. I groaned and I slipped my shoes on and then bent down to tie the laces. I was glad that flats were trendy now because my height had forced me to wear heels at every turn of life. 

"Are you ready, Ari?" My little sister squealed from the doorway. She reminded me, most of the time, of Boo from Monster Inc. I didn't know if I liked that or hated it but she was adorable as hell and so, it was fine. 

"Ari is ready. Is Rae ready?" 

"Of course, I am... not," she said, and giggle-squealed her way out of my room. Sarcasm must probably run in our blood. 

My phone started to buzz and I pulled out to see yet another google update of Chen's new mv. I rolled my eyes at my phone and shoved it back into my pocket. I wasn't a sasaeng but... I loved my bias way too much and it was hard for me to be happy about him dating another person. Was I just pathetic for feeling this way? yes. But, I'd still try.

I glanced at the mirror one last time before huffing and leaving my room. "Ari, I swear if you don't come with me, I'll leave without you," my brother screamed. 

"Would you calm down?" I shouted back as I rushed to the door. 

"I wish eomma was at home to hear you language." 

"Shut up!" I muttered and opened the door. Iseul usually got on my last nerve and now I wanted to punch that fool straight in the face. I had no idea why I loved my brother because he honestly made me want to kill him whenever we were near each other. 

"I'm glad I'm leaving for military service soon. Turning twenty one is amazing," he said. " I don't ever have to drive you around again." 

"I'm glad you're leaving because then, I don't have to see your ugly face every morning." 

He just drove me to the building where I had my interview and then patted me for good luck. "Get this job so that you can feed me properly in the future." 

"I'll feed Rae first." 

"Of course," he said with a grin and I climbed out of the car. 

Okay, focus. You're a strong, almost independent, tiny, squeaky... I think I'm doing the pep talk wrong. Okay, let's start again. Even if you're disgusting, you can do this. 

I walked into the building with lesser courage than I had had this morning and walked over to the counter to ask where the interview was being held and made my way to the elevator. 

"To be honest, I don't know what I was expecting," I heard someone say and I turned to look at them. 

He wasn't all that tall and his build wasn't too broad but he looked like he could be good looking. I turned my eyes away when I heard the elevator ding and we got in, which was when I saw his face. Kim JunMyeon. 

"Yes, I know that," he murmured. 

I gawked at him from where I was standing and he continued to talk over the phone. "That's where I am... Yes, I know." 

I got off before he did and my heart continued to hammer. What the hell? Was I dreaming? This kind of stuff only happened in corny KDramas and fan fiction that I read online to make myself feel better. I rolled my eyes and started to walk towards the office. 

I knew that I must've been dreaming because
