Just like any other night in Hongdae, she would bow ninety degrees and whisper an apology to the person standing in front of her while walking away from the dressing room. When closing the small door, she would roll her eyes and always chant in her head, 'When will they ever stop asking?'

- - -

"I don't understand why you won't even go on one date with any of them! You're twenty four years old and still single!"

She heaved a sigh and turned around. "Dongwoo, you know I don't like going out on dates with strangers. They're just a one night duet singing partner. So would you please stop getting the good looking, amateur singers and would you please get some actual talented singers?"

Her best friend looked down in defeat and she started to feel a little guilty that she yelled at him for something so small. She opened to apologize but Dongwoo was faster.

"So you admit that the guys I get for you are good looking?" he said with a tight smirk as she hit her forehead.

"Dongwoo, what are we doing here? I want to go have fun at a club in Hongdae, not some quiet, fancy looking bar where old people attend." 

Dongwoo glared at the male figure and the other five men who seemed to agree with him.

"Well then Woohyun, if you don't want to be here then go to the club across the street. Excuse me for trying to support my best friend who actually has talent than my six roommates who party all night and get drunk while ugly girls throughout the night."

She looked at the seven guys standing in front of her dressing room, like they were hesitant to knock or not. She spotted Dongwoo with them and she rolled her eyes for the billionth time.

"Yah, Jang Dongwoo. I told you I'm not interested in any more dates!" 

They all glanced at the shorter girl with long, wavy chestnut colored hair and one of them have the courage to introduce himself.

"Hi, I'm Lee Sungjong! You were so awesome in that duet! I wish I could sing like you, noona!" 

She didn't look fazed at all and she just stared at them will dull eyes for a few seconds before stepping into her dressing room while shutting the door behind her.

She finished the stage with another extravagant performance and the audience cheered for her with loud hoots. She smiled for a second before leaving the stage.

"What a night. So where's my money due for today?" 

Dongwoo rolled his eyes and asked her if money was the only thing she ever thought of while handing her a large amount of cash.

"Just money and singing." She didn't realize a certain figure was standing next to Dongwoo and when Dongwoo finally stepped aside to rush to the stage to introduce the next performer, a well built figure with small crescent eyes and baby cheeks stepped up in front of her.

"Hi,you might have seen me the night before with Dongwoo. I just saw your performance and you were great." 

She looked at him with curious eyes before nodding.

"U-uh well would you like to -"

"I don't go out on dates with strangers. So no thanks."

She was about to walk away to her dressing room when suddenly he grabbed her small wrist gently and whispered, "I'm Kim Sunggyu."
