Chapter 19
This Thing called 'LOVE'As Aeri walked thorough the hallway towards the elevator, a familiar figure appeared.
Jiyong was a few meters away from her walking towards the recording room with a trainee.
Aeri didn't know how she was supposed to react, was she supposed to smile or maybe just ignore him but that would seem rude after much conflict she decided to just wave her hand at him with a weak smile, after all they were friends for so long.
"Hey" - she mumbled looking at Jiyong who just walked past her without even glancing back. He felt like a completely different person, he felt like a stranger. The traniee was also stunned to witness G DRAGON's cold side. A side you never want to be a part of.
Aeri froze on her spot trying to process what just happened but little did she know that even G dragon had stopped in his tracks.
The sound of his phone buzzing could be heard prominently. With a sly smile on his face, Jiyong turned back to face Aeri who had her back towards him.
"Hey KIKO" - Jiyong smirked.
Aeri could clearly hear the bubbly voice through the phone.
"Give me an hour dear, I'll be right there. Don't miss me too much." - Jiyong hanged up and walked into the recording the room.
Aeri's blood was boiling, she couldn't believe that piece of who troubled her in her own company was so close to Jiyong. Her fist clenched on their own, making her palm turn white.
She let out a huge breath and entered the elevator, several thoughts running in her mind.
What relationship did Kiko and Jiyong have? How close were they? How long did they know each other?
There was only one person who would tell her the whole story.
She quickly dialed the number.
"Hello, Seungri oppa? Where are you right now?"
One hour later Aeri reached a private club. Seungri apparently was DJing there.
As soon as the doors opened, Aeri went deaf for a second. There was loud music and it wasn't any pleasant sound, the beats were all over the place just like Seungri. Aeri could feel her heart vibrate with the beats.
"Remind me to were ear plugs and come next time!" - Aeri shouted when Seungri waved at her.
"Why? It's EDM style, it's supposed to liked this!" - Seungri defended, playing some more different beats for her.
"Are you sure?" - Aeri teased the maknae.
Seungri just looked at her with a blank expression making Aeri burst out laughing.
After handing over the DJing stance to someone else, Seungri made his way back down to Aeri who was sitting by the bar having a drink.
"So why did you call me?" - Seungri questioned taking a seat beside her.
"Ahhhh that.... Ummmm" - Aeri was thinking about ways to ask Seungri about Jiyong and Kiko without been suspicious.
Seungri on the other hand couldn't stop smiling at her.
"Why are you smiling?" - Aeri questioned, already feeling like there was something going on.
"Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking about something." - Seungri replied - "anyway what was it that you wanted to ask me ? You can't come all the way here for nothing, right?"
"Yeah. Ummm few weeks back when I was working at the company I met this model --"
"Kiko!?" - Seungri called out, standing up from his place and waving his hand frantically cutting off Aeri.
Aeri couldn't believe her eyes. Kiko was standing right before her, flaunting her skinny legs in those extra mini leather skirt.
"It's been a long time! How are you?" - Seungri asked, hugging her.
"Oh yes Oppa, it been all most 2 months." - Kiko replied.
Aeri couldn't help but let out a chuckle gaining both of their attention.
"Did I say something funny?" - Kiko questioned Aeri.
"No no, two months is a very long~ time." - Aeri said sarcastically with a smirk which was followed with an awkward silence
"Hahahahah" - Seungri faked a laugh to loosen up the tense atmosphere.
But the girls ignored him, there were busy having an intense eye contact with each other.
"Wait aren't you Seri?... wait what was your name again.... Meri....?" - Kiko commented, trying her best to remember Aeri's name.
"Aeri. It's Park Aeri." - Aeri gave a stern reply.
"Ahhh yeah Aeri. You were lucky last time that your designs worked out well. In my opinion there was a lot of room to imporve." - Kiko stated, crossing her arms, trying to show a sense of superiority.
"Well I think it was hard work of my team rather than luck. I knew the design were going to be a huge hit, after all I designed them." - Aeri replied, her hazel eyes fixed at Kiko.
"You guys know each other?" - Seungri interrupted again trying to cool down the tense atmosphere.
"Yes" - Kiko replied.
"No" - Aeri replied at the same time as Kiko.
Kiko let out a small laugh of disbelief and was about to comment something when Aeri cut her off.
"Now excuse me I need to use the restroom" - Aeri excused herself and walked past the model.
Seungri couldn't hide the smile on his face. He was absolutely loving the clash between the two. This was becoming a great evening for him.
Pushing the door to the washroom, Aeri couldn't help but curse under her breath.
"Seri? Meri? Who the does she think she is? I'm sure she knew my name!" - Aer
