Chapter 48

Please Keep My Secret

 

7:30 pm at Maid Latte..

“Merry Christmas, Masters and Miladies!!” Seohyun greeted some customers.

Holiday greetings were everywhere in Maid Latte. It seemed like it was just yesterday when the new year came and now it is Christmas time.

“Manager, Christmas is actually 2 days from now right?” Yoona asked

“Yes, actually I want everybody to rest during the Christmas season too even if it’s just for two days.” Taeyeon answered

“Does it mean we don’t have work for the next two days?” Hyoyeon asked

“Yeah” Taeyeon replied. “I always see everyone work diligently so now I want you to enjoy the Holidays. I thought you should spend some time for yourselves and your families. That’s why I decided to celebrate Christmas earlier here at Maid Latte.”

“It’s such a waste that we can’t celebrate this on that day itself.” Tiffany said. “But I guess Manager is right that we should at least celebrate Christmas with our families.”

Meanwhile, in the staff room..

“Like I said, WHY ON EARTH ARE YOU HERE?!” Hara asked

“I told you manager invited me here” Kyuhyun answered calmly

“Then it must be for the part-time job right?” Hara probed. “Then why are you still sitting around, go and work already”

“But she told me I’m not here for work” Kyuhyun replied

“Oh, both of you are here already!!” Taeyeon interrupted their conversation as she entered the staff room with Tiffany, Hyoyeon and Yoona

“Hey, Taeyeon unnie!!” Hara called. “Why is Kyuhyun-ssi here when he is not wor—”

“Alright! Let’s hurry up and put everything back to order” Taeyeon ignored what Hara was saying

“Ye!!” the other girls said

“A-Aren’t we closing the shop a bit earlier than usual today? It feels a bit rushed too..” Seohyun said as she joined the conversation. Ehh? Why is Kyuhyun here?

“Hey Seo! You don’t have any plans for tonight do you?” Taeyeon asked

“Yes, I actually thought that today’s work will drag until late at night” Seohyun answered

“Alright!” Taeyeon beamed. “Well then, let’s go!!”

“Eh?! Where to?!”

 

Somewhere the business district of Seoul..

“It’s this room over here. Quick, quick” Tiffany waved at the others

 “KA-KARAOKE?! Why?” Seohyun asked

“Although sometimes everyone would like to hang-out together after work, no matter how we invite you, you would definitely go back home immediately” Yoona answered

“Furthermore, after looking at you being so busy and trying your best to save up money, it was impossible for us to ask and drag you along with us” Hyoyeon added

“Th-That…I’m sorry” Seohyun apologized

“Ah, that’s not it, we are not blaming you..” Tiffany said. “That’s why we’ve taken this chance to invite you..”

“You must at least have fun with everyone in times like this.” Taeyeon said. “And since it is Maid Latte’s staff Christmas Party, it will be on me”

“Kamsahamnida” Seohyun said with a smile

When they were all seated inside, Tiffany put on a song. When the music started..

 “Ah, it’s Shinee” Taeyeon said

“Oh, you know them too, manager?” Tiffany asked

“Yes”

“They can be seen everywhere these days” Hyoyeon said

“So those guys are really this amazing?!” Seohyun whispered

“The so-called craze is really hard to comprehend, huh?” Kyuhyun added

“To those who don’t know them yet, you will know once you listen to their songs. This song is actually very popular in the radio” Tiffany said

“You know how to sing it already?” Yoona asked

“Just you watch..” Tiffany answered and she started to sing

*Juliette*

The volume is surprisingly loud. Seohyun thought

As I thought I should’ve not come.

“Where is Hara-ssi?” Yoona asked

“Now that you mentioned it, she was still here a while ago” Taeyeon replied

“Everyone, sorry for the wait. The next performance tonight will be a limited edition and highly valuable performance by the very famous internet idol” Hara introduced herself and grabbed the microphone from Tiffany.

“Wait a minute, don’t snatch away my music!” Tiffany scolded

“Yah!! Hara-ssi, you already know that usually I would sing that song in the beginning!” Tiffany said but Hara just ignored her

“Wait cut it out both of you!” Taeyeon said. “It’s fine if you can just sing it together!”

Meanwhile, out from another corner, were two people who had been quiet the whole time..

Seohyun, felt someone was looking at her so she looked around and found Kyuhyun doing it so.

“Drinks?” Kyuhyun asked. “You would prefer some juice instead soda right?”

Seohyun nodded.

“Here you go” Kyuhyun gave her a glass of pineapple juice

“Thanks” Seohyun said and took a sip of her juice. “This kind of noisy environment is already common, isn’t it?”

“Maybe, I really don’t know too.” Kyuhyun said. “But since it seems like everyone is having fun today, there’s no need for you to handle everything. Isn’t it fine like this?”

Why is this person suddenly talking about strange things? Seohyun thought

“What?” Kyuhyun asked when he did not hear her answer

“No, somehow you don’t seem to fit in this kind of place or should I say…” Seohyun trailed. “you’re strangely feeling out of place.”

“Hmmm, then what kind of place do I fit in?” Kyuhyun asked

“Uhmm..since you asked,..in..in some sort of flower bed..?” Seohyun said innocently

Kyuhyun nearly choked of what she said. Cough. Cough.

“Why?” Seohyun asked innocently. “Once in a while I will have an imagination of flowers surrounding you. Wait are you okay? Why are you coughing all of a sudden?”

Kyuhyun chuckled. “Do I really give out a fairytale image?” Kyuhyun asked

“Not, not so..it’s not completely like that..” Seohyun said

“Yah!!” they suddenly heard Hara shout. “You dare to have guts to be absent-minded when I am singing!!!”

“Hey, Hara-ssi!!!” Taeyeon reprimanded

“I’m sorry” Seohyun said

“Since you’re not listening, hurry up and enter a song and sing!” Hara commanded

“I-I think I’ll pass, as this is my first time in karaoke…I’ll just listen to everyone sing” Seohyun declined

“YOUR FIRST KARAOKE???” Everyone asked in unison

“Right now, there is still such a high school girl?” Tiffany asked

“Then just sing any song!” Hyoyeon said

“We actually get to witness your karaoke debut performance at this kind of place!” Yoona said

Seohyun was shocked that she suddenly became the center of attention. “I don’t really know many songs” she said. “But alright, I’ll try”

After singing, the other girls were amazed because they did not know that Seohyun could sing really well.

“I-I’ve embarrassed myself..” Seohyun said

“It was very good, Seohyun-ah” Taeyeon complimented

When she was about to take a seat, Kyuhyun was staring at her.

“W-What are you looking at? You, you should sing something too!!” Seohyun said

“Ehh, this is my first time in karaoke as well” Kyuhyun answered

“What??” the others asked. “There’s actually two ‘protected species’?”

“It was also my first time but I sang anyway” Seohyun said

“But about the songs that I know how to sing—”

“Then..” Seohyun interrupted and put a song on the machine. “This! You shouldn’t have any problem singing this right?”

The music started to play.

“Eh…? I can sing this but…”

*Puff the Magic Dragon*

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, 
Little Jackie paper loved that rascal puff, 
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. oh 

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, 
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee. 

 

“Unexpectedly it’s a nursery rhyme” Hyoyeon said

“But even so, why is he emitting a glamorous atmosphere?” Taeyeon asked

Upon hearing Kyuhyun sing, Seohyun suddenly had goosebumps, felt her cheeks burn and her heart beat fast. Why do I feel like this? He is just singing a nursery rhyme. She covered her ears in attempt to calm herself. “Waaaa, stop it! Somehow it feels excessively embarrassing!!”

“But you were the one who entered this song for me..” Kyuhyun said and continued to sing

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail 
Jackie kept a lookout perched on puffs gigantic tail, 
Noble kings and princes would bow whenever they came, 
Pirate ships would lower their flag when puff roared out his name. oh! 

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, 
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee. 
 

“S-Stop it Kyuhyun-ssi. I think Seohyun really can’t take it” Tiffany said

“Honestly, what kind of person is Kyuhyun-ssi?” Taeyeon asked. “Even if this is the first time, he sounds like a professional”

“It’s Kyuhyun-ssi after all” Hyoyeon said

 

Meanwhile..

The Pabo Trio were running fast towards Maid Latte..

“Hey, KangIn, hurry up” Eunhyuk said while running.

“Geez, it’s all because of Yesung! Only managing to finish it at the last minute and still fussing over those tiny details” KangIn said

“Because I just can’t leave it like that!” Yesung said.

“But what’s the point of all this if we miss giving our Christmas present to Seohyun-ssi!” KangIn replied

“Like I said, this is not the time to be quarrelling!! Get going already” Eunhyuk scolded

Arriving in front of Maid Latte, the words ‘Sorry, we’re closed’ greeted them.

“It’s just 8:55 pm. There is still five minutes before Maid Latte’s closing time but why is it close already?” Yesung wondered

“The café closed earlier” a random passerby told the Pabo trio. “I heard they went to celebrate the Staff Christmas Party”

“What??” the Pabo trio chorused

 

When the Christmas Party ended..

“Woaah, that was really fun!” Tiffany said

“Yeah, let’s do it again next time” Hyoyeon added

“Okay! Time for presents!” Taeyeon said

Suddenly, all the girls gave Seohyun their gifts that she could hardly carry them all on her hands.

“Eh? Is this all mine?” Seohyun asked. “I’ve never received so many gifts like this.”

“Yes, it’s all yours Seohyun-ah” Yoona said

“But..I haven’t prepared any gift for you unnies because you decided this so suddenly.” Seohyun said apologetically

“Don’t worry about it Seohyun-ah” Taeyeon said

“But this is too much for me. There is so many of them” Seohyun said. “It kind of feel like it’s my birthday”

“Don’t tell us things like you won’t accept them” Hyoyeon said

“I told you, it will be troublesome for her if the present is too big!” Taeyeon told Hyoyeon

“Because, I think that is the best choice for her to be happy!!” Hyoyeon answered

“I’m sorry, Seohyun-ah. Although it’s a one sided feeling, can’t you just accept all of these?” Tiffany said

“But unnie, I can’t give you anythi—” Seohyun said

“Seohyun-ah, we don’t expect anything in return” Taeyeon said. “After all, it’s better to give than to receive”

“But why are you giving me too much?” Seohyun asked

“Because we love our Seobaby so much that’s why!” Taeyeon answered and everybody smiled at her

Seohyun tightened her grip on the gifts. “Thank you..very much..” she finally spoke

When everybody went home..

“Sorry…for the wait” Seohyun said

“It’s okay, Let’s go” Kyuhyun said and helped her carry the gifts.

“It’s alright, you know..” Seohyun said

“About what?”

“That..even if manager said so…it’s alright for me to go back alone. I’m capable of carrying those things on my own too..”

“Even without her mentioning, I’ve already intended to send you home in the first place” Kyuhyun answered

 “Don’t you realize that it’s already 11:30 pm?” Seohyun said. “You sure have lots of spare time don’t you?”

“And you sure like to worry about oth—”

“Tha-Thank you..” Seohyun interrupted

Kyuhyun looked at her then smirked. “I wonder how many times you have already said ‘thank you’ today”

“IS THAT WRONG??!! Then what else do you want me to say. Since this is the first time for me to receive so much.. I can’t help it you know..”

When they were already infront of Seohyun’s house...

“The truth is…” Kyuhyun suddenly became serious. “..I feel a little troubled”

“Hm??”

“Your present, I don’t know what I should give you”

“It’s fine!!” Seohyun looked away

“But I think my present will be unnecessary since you’ve received this much presents already..”

“Like I said it’s fine!...” Seohyun insisted. “…since I didn’t give you any present too”

“I see” Kyuhyun said. “Well then, why don’t I have Seohyun for one day tomorrow as your Christmas present for me this year, is that alright?”

“?!?”

“As a reward I’ll also..”

“Wait..” Seohyun said

“..prepare a present for you.” Kyuhyun said. “Tomorrow for one day”

“Wh-What’s with tha—”

“Seo!!!..” Kyuhyun grabbed her hand and looked at her gently. “Please..”

Seohyun was speechless.

“Well then, see you tomorrow” Kyuhyun said. “I’ll give you a call to inform you about the time and place.” then he walked until he vanished in the dark.

“Don’t simply decide things on your own Kyu, you Pabo” Seohyun whispered as she ruffled her hair

 

The next morning..

Seohyun made a fuss as she hurriedly ran down the stairs.

“Waa! As I thought it’s this late already!” she said to herself as she passed by their living room to look at their wall clock.  “Aish, I haven’t eaten my breakfast too” she said as she approached the door

“Unnie!” she suddenly heard her sister call her. “What’s with that appearance?”

“Eh?!?” Seohyun turned to Suzy. “Is..is it weird somehow?”

Suzy looked at her from head to foot. “It’s not that it’s weird..”

“Should..should I change into another outfit?” Seohyun asked coyly. “To my usual clothing perhaps?”

“Unnie come to the bathroom for a while” Suzy dragged Seohyun

“Eh? Wha-What is it?!”

“Ah, do you have any necklace?”

“Eh? Yes, I have one” Seohyun answered. The necklace I got in Chungwoon High.

“I can only lend you some hairpins..” Suzy started doing Seohyun’s hair

“Wait Suzy, there’s no more time already.”

“Don’t worry, we’ll make it”

 

In the park near the Seo’s residence..

Kyuhyun can be seen standing near a food stall. He released a yawn then looked at his wristwatch. “Sorry! You must have waited long” he heard a voice from behind him.

“Seems like even the Prez gets late—” he could not continue what he was saying when he saw Seohyun’s appearance. He smiled then said, “How surprising..”

“Tha-That is because..” she said still panting from running too fast. “..I was held back by Suzy”

Pant. Pant.

“Are you alright?” Kyuhyun asked as he offered her a bottle of water.

“So-Sorry..” Seohyun grabbed the bottle and drank from it.

“By the way, what is with that appearance?” Kyuhyun asked

Why is everyone asking about my appearance? Seohyun thought. “It..It’s my present!! Everyone from the shop gave this to me yesterday. I just thought of wearing it since everyone put a lot of effort in this for me..”

“These clothes?”

“The clothes, the shoes, the bag, all of it..most likely everyone gathered enough money together to buy all of them..” Seohyun said. “Does..does it look weird?”

“No way, please go easy on me” Kyuhyun said

“YAH!!! WHERE IS IT WEIRD?!” Seohyun asked “I EVEN PERSONALLY THINK THAT EVERYTHING IS…is cute too.”

“..so you do actually understand a little!?” Kyuhyun said as he touched Seohyun’s necklace.

 

Some private office in America..

“We already found him Mr. Shin” a guy reported.

“Who among them?” Mr. Shin asked

The other guy showed a picture. “It’s this guy” he said. “Cho Kyuhyun. The name is different but he is most likely the person we were looking for. I had him background checked and it seems like he lives alone.”

“Are there any people we could use to verify information?”

“I’m afraid it would be difficult because the guy minimized his associations with other people and it seems like his guardian is not around as well.” The guy said. “But recently he had some sort of close relationship with someone.”

“Who?”

The guy showed another picture. “Seo Joo Hyun!”

 

Back in the park..

“Here..” Kyuhyun gave Seohyun a sandwich. “I have not taken my breakfast yet, how about you?”

“If you don’t want it, I’ll eat it” Seohyun answered.

“Go ahead!” he said. “Let’s sit down at the bench over there.”

“Mmm”Seohyun nodded

“Say, as I thought you still can’t think of any?” Kyuhyun asked. “About where you want to go?”

“Well..that’s because you just suddenly decided this yesterday.” Seohyun answered. “I’ve never hang out and play outside like this during the holidays before”

“And you call yourself a high school girl?” Kyuhyun teased

“SHUT UP! That’s because I’m busy with my studies and part-time job.” Seohyun said. “Now that I mention it, how do you spend your holidays usually?”

“Isn’t it doing nothing at all?”

“Eeeiii what was that?!”

“It’s your own matter isn’t it?” Kyuhyun said. “Great, I’ve decided! Let’s go shopping”

“Ah, that’s right”

“What?”

“Thanks for the food.”

“Pfft no problem..”

At the shopping district..

“Hey Kyuhyun, what’s the point of making vegetables into stuffed toys?” Seohyun asked as she showed a radish stuffed toy.

“It’s cute though” Kyuhyun said

Suddenly, Kyuhyun brought out a digital camera and Click.

“Yah!!Why all of a sudden!!”

“Why? I’m just taking a photograph” Kyuhyun said. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click.

“That’s why I’m asking you. Aren’t you taking a little too much?” Seohyun tried to shove it away but Kyuhyun just kept on taking more photos.

“It’s my present” Kyuhyun said

“Eh??”

“I have to preserve Seo Joo Hyun the whole day today properly.” Kyuhyun said. “This digital camera will be the present..that’s what I’m thinking… Therefore do cooperate nicely with me, my photographic subject. ”

Click. Click. Click. Click.

“Yah!! I SAID STOP IT! Don’t you think it’s weird?” Seohyun asked

“It’s not weird” Kyuhyun said innocently

“Somehow, you’re being strangely forceful today!!” Seohyun said. “F-Furthermore, the digital camera is such an expensive item..I-I can’t accept it.”

“Hmmm” Kyuhyun suddenly became serious. “That’s true, this must be pretty pricey for a high school kid, however, if I throw this straight away, even I, would feel bad too”

“WHY DO YOU HAVE TO THROW IT AWAY???” Seohyun said. “Can’t you just use it for yourself?”

“That’s because I bought this only for Seohyun.” Kyuhyun answered. “I won’t let any other people have it. Also…in front of me.. I wonder how many cute expressios can Prez display?”

“????”

“Letting you have a sense of self-consciousness is the purpose of this”

Click. Click.

“Besides that, I’m also wondering how interesting can your angry expression be!” Kyuhyun teased.

Click. Click.

“Stop taking anymore!!! You, Kyuhyun Pabo!!”

For the whole day, Kyuhyun kept on taking pictures..

 

Click.

 

“You said we were going to shop but in the end we ended up buying nothing” Seohyun said. “How fast..the sky is beginning to get dark already but..I’m feeling a little unsatisfied”

“Why’s that?”

“I’m the only one whose pictures are being taken, it feels irritating!”

“Can’t help it, it’s my present for you after all”

“What kind of doesn’t-make-any-sense theory of yours is that?” Seohyun asked in irritation. “It would be fine if I do like pictures being taken..”

“Why? You don’t like to?”

“If I like it, then I wouldn’t be saying stuffs like these, would I!?!” she said full of sarcasm. “Give it to me! I want to take pictures too!”

“NO WAY!!” Kyuhyun said stubbornly. “That’s because your hands are dirty!”

“THEN IT WILL BE FINE AS LONG AS I WASH MY HANDS!!”Seohyun said as she started to look for a source of water.

Kyuhyun chuckled. “It’s fine. I’ll teach you how to use it the easy way. Come here.” He said

Seohyun went closer to him. “This is the timer.” Kyuhyun said while pressing some buttons. “Right now it’s set to 10 seconds” Kyuhyun placed the camera somewhere. “And now press the shutter..count down to 10 seconds” he instructed as he stood beside Seohyun.

10..9..8..7..6..5..4..3..2..1.. Click.

 

 

At Kyuhyun’s apartment, after having dinner..

“Ha..I’m full!” Seohyun exclaimed as she pat her belly

“Although your stomach is filled, how about having a little bit of this as your final course” Kyuhyun said as he brought out a small cake. “Since we had so much food already, I specially made it smaller for you. Another gift.”

Kyuhyun placed the cake on the table. “Merry Christmas, Seohyun.”

“Another gift? I think this is not fair” Seohyun said. “You’ve already given me so much and yet I don’t have anything for you.”

“Oh?? Haven’t I already received a present from you?” Kyuhyun asked

“Only playing with me for a whole day as your present, don’t you feel like it’s lacking?” Seohyun asked. “Besides, I received a lot of things from you”

Kyuhyun smiled. “Since you say it that way, then, I shall have another present from you.” Kyuhyun said as he sat beside Seohyun.

He took out his handphone. “Smile!”

 

 

Later that night at the Seo’s residence..

Seohyun was looking at the pictures on the digital camera Kyuhyun gave.

“That guy really took a lot!?” Seohyun said annoyed.

Suddenly, her younger sister appeared in her bedroom door.

“Unnie, tell Kyuhyun-ssi to come tomorrow for Christmas” Suzy ordered

“Wae?”

“Because they are going to celebrate Christmas with us” Suzy answered

“They?”

Suzy nodded. “Jaejoong-oppa and Kyuhyun-ssi”

“Why are they suddenly invited?” Seohyun asked

“I told mom that they don’t have anyone to celebrate it with since they both live alone in Seoul.”

“Eh?”

“Actually, Jaejoong-oppa was the only one I wanted to invite but I thought you would like to see Kyuhyun-ssi as well” Suzy said

“O-Of course not!” Seohyun denied

“Eeiii!!” Suzy said. “If you don’t want to agree with that reason, just think of it as a way of saying thank you to him for helping us fix the floor last time.”

“Ye..”

“Jinjja unnie, why don’t you just admit it?!” Suzy whispered.

“What?”

“Nothing.” Suzy said. “By the way I already told Jaejoong-oppa about it so you just need to tell Kyuhyun-ssi”

“Yah!! Seo Suzy!!”

“And unnie!! Mom is expecting him to come so be sure to convince him, arasso?” Suzy said. “Alright! Then I’ll go to bed” she said then exited from Seohyun’s room.

“This is absolutely crazy!” Seohyun said to herself. Nevertheless she sent Kyuhyun a text message: ‘Kyu, if you don’t have anything to do tomorrow, omma and Suzy wants you to come celebrate Christmas with us.’

While waiting for Kyuhyun’s reply, Seohyun’s phone rang. She immediately received the call when he saw Kyuhyun’s name.

“I will come!” she heard the joyful voice of Kyuhyun at the other line

“Eh?”

“I said I will come tomorrow!” Kyuhyun said

“You could’ve just texted back!” Seohyun answered. “Why are you still bothering to call?”

“I want to tell it with my own voice”

“You are so weird!!”

“Why? Should I come tell you personally?” Kyuhyun teased. “Just tell me and I’ll come right away”

“Yah, why would I want to see your alien-looking face again??” Seohyun hissed

“Who knows?” Kyuhyun said. “Maybe you miss me?”

“Why would I?!?” Seohyun answered. “Besides, I got tired looking at your face the whole day today”

“So, you were looking at me the whole time?” Kyuhyun teased

Seohyun blushed. “YAH!! STOP TALKING NONSENSE!!!”

Kyuhyun giggled. “Alright, I’ll see you tomorrow”

Seohyun nodded even though she knew the person on the other line can’t see her.

“Bye” Kyuhyun said and they both hang up.

 

Outside the building of Kyuhyun’s unit…

“Excuse me ahjumma, by chance, do you know this person?” a guy showed a picture to the older woman.

The woman looked carefully at the picture. “Ah, this is the high school kid that lives on unit 11 of this building.” she said

“Do you know his name ahjumma?” the guy asked

“I think it is Kyuhyun. Cho Kyuhyun.” the woman answered.

“Are you sure it’s Kyuhyun and not something else?”

“Yeah, it is what I know..but why are you asking?” the ahjumma asked

Chapter 56: Wow dieback! This story is really amazing. I have watched maid damage anime and have read the manga as well. At first I couldn't imagine seohyun in misaki' s character at all. But gradually I started to get into the feel of it. I am glad you made seohyun interested in piano in the story as well. Coz I can't imagine seohyun without piano. There's just one thing that I found slightly incompatible. I just can't imagine jaejoong playing hinata 's role. He looks like a bishounen too much of an "it boy". I were in your place I would have chosen jung yonghwa. He gives off the girl next door vibe...also there was another slight incompatibility with yuri playing sakura's character. Yuri is too much of a y tomboy to play a naive character like sakura. I think sunny would have fit this role. Anyways your story your choices. I am not complaining though coz it was too entertaining to read. I am only staring my thoughts on this. Take care. You are doing an amazing job. Keep writing.

Chapter 56: Sorry I made many grammatical mistakes in my comment. I forgot to mention if once. I wanted to write if I were in your place. Second I meant yonghwa gives off a boy next door vibe ni

Chapter 56: Wow dieback! This story is really amazing. I have watched maid damage anime and have read the manga as well. At first I couldn't imagine seohyun in misaki' s character at all. But gradually I started to get into the feel of it. I am glad you made seohyun interested in piano in the story as well. Coz I can't imagine seohyun without piano. There's just one thing that I found slightly incompatible. I just can't imagine jaejoong playing hinata 's role. He looks like a bishounen too much of an "it boy". I were in your place I would have chosen jung yonghwa. He gives off the girl next door vibe...also there was another slight incompatibility with yuri playing sakura's character. Yuri is too much of a y tomboy to play a naive character like sakura. I think sunny would have fit this role. Anyways your story your choices. I am not complaining though coz it was too entertaining to read. I am only staring my thoughts on this. Take care. You are doing an amazing job. Keep writing.
