Chapter 7

Our Not-so-happy Life

The lights were peeping through the silk curtains and the sleeping Yoona woke up from her beauty sleep. The sunlight felt warm to her and she stood up and washed herself.

After taking a bath, she wore a pair jogging pants and an old tee. She rushed to the kitchen to grab some cereals and placed herself on the couch, eating breakfast while watching TV.

That was her routine every time she receives a day-off. She was concentrating on her food when suddenly, the doorbell rang.

She opened the door and was surprised to see a man carrying an average-sized box.

“Package for Miss Im Yoona.” said the man.

‘A package for me?’ Yoona thought.

“I’m Im Yoona...” she said as the man gave the box to her.

Just when the man was leaving, Yoona spoke again. “Excuse me, but, do you know who this package is from?” asked Yoona.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t tell you. He said to keep it as a secret.” The man bowed and left Yoona’s apartment floor.

She closed the door. “Hmm, what could this be?”

She sat on the carpet in her living room, looking at the box suspiciously. The box was rectangle in size and it had a ribbon on it.

“Should I open it?” she asked herself.

Her hands landed on the ribbon and little did she knew that she was untying the gold ribbon. She opened the box slowly.

She gasped. “OMO! It’s the dress!” she said as she clasped her hands together.

It revealed a red strapless evening gown with sparkling beads attached on it. It was the same evening gown that she wanted to buy yesterday, during her shopping session with Key. On the top of the box, there was a card attached to it.

To: Yoona

I want you to wear this dress to the ball later at 7PM. Since I don’t have a partner yet, I want you to be my date. Please don’t fail me. I’ll pick you up at 6PM. Have fun with the dress!

Yoona read the note but it didn’t say anything about who it was from. She was still confused but she decided to call on Sooyoung, Yuri, and Seohyun to help her with her hair and make-up. Before they arrived, Yoona fixed her room and washed the dishes. The trio arrived at 3PM sharp and instead of ringing the door bell; they banged the door with their hands and screamed.

“YOOOOOOOOONA! OPEN THE DOOR!!!!”

Yoona was startled by the noise and ran to the door immediately. She opened it and found the 3 whistling and waving without a noise.

“You three are so innocent, aren’t ya?” said Yoona in a sarcastic way as she chuckled.

She let the three inside and let them sit on the couch.

“Want some food or drinks or something?” suggested Yoona.

The three were silent. Sooyoung was busy watching TV while the other two were texting their boyfriends.

Yoona raised an eyebrow to Sooyoung. “Yah ShikShin! Don’t you want some food?” asked Yoona in a joking kind of matter.

Sooyoung nodded her head in disapproval.

This caused Yoona to look at the other two. “Okay now, stop the jokes…Why did Sooyoung say no to my offer?"

“Don’t know…” the two chorused.

“Seriously Yoon, I don’t feel like eating…Kyu oppa has been teaching me good manners…” said Sooyoung proudly.

Yoona and SeoYul were now confused. “Good Manners?!” asked Seohyun.

Yuri scoffed. “Yeah, as if! Are ya sure this Shikshin has got to go?” asked Yuri, still confused.

Sooyoung nodded until something has caught her eye. “Ooh! What’s that?” she asked and pointed to the box.

“Ooh…That’s just a—“

“OMONA!”

“It’s…”

“So…”

“Gorgeous…”

The three were now out of breath. Truly, that gown was so breath-taking.

Seohyun pulled the gown out of the box and her eyes grew bigger and bigger.

“Wow…”

“I know right, wow…” said Yoona.

“W-who gave t-this to you, unnie?” stuttered the maknae, still dazed at the gown.

“Actually, it was delivered as a package for me. It says there that the person it was from was invited to the party and he needed a date to be with him.” explained Yoona.

“Aww~! Yoona’s going on a date!” squealed Sooyoung as she jumped up and down.

Yoona blushed in embarrassment and Yuri hit her lightly.

“Yah Choi Sooyoung! Don’t embarrass Yoonie!” complained Yuri.

“Unnie, we have to do your hair, and your make-up, and—“

“That’s why I called you three!”

After awhile, the three started working on Yoona’s hair. An hour passed and she was finally done with her hair.

“Unnie! You look so pretty!” complimented Seohyun.

“You haven’t seen anything yet, Seo...” said Yuri as she made Yoona face the mirror.

“Tada!” the three squealed.

Yoona’s hair was tied up in a bun with falling strands of hair on the side and some bangs in the front.

“I-I...” Yoona was speechless.

“Honey, please, that’s justthe beginning.” said Yuri as she started with her make-up.

Another hour passed and she was already dolled-up.

She was wearing a hot pink eye-shadow with an equal application of eyeliner and her plump lips were colored in a pinkish lipstick.

“Now, for the final event...” said Sooyoung as she pointed at Seohyun who was holding her dress.

Yoona in some air and finally went into her room’s dressing room. The three helped her wear the dress so as not to destroy her hairdo and makeup.

A couple of minutes passed, the casual Yoona turned into a gorgeous princess. She looked hot in her hot red evening gown. She eyed herself in the mirror and smiled sheepishly.

It was now 6PM and she was now about to go to the meeting place. The three bid goodbye to her and she thanked them for helping her with everything. When she opened the door, the cool breeze seeped into her room. She suddenly felt cold and decided to bring a coat.

“Hmm...How about this one?” she mumbled to herself as she examined the coat.

It was a gold trench-coat. The perfect thing to snuggle in the cold winter. She wore the coat and she left home. She was now waiting in the park; elbows plopped on her knees, hands supporting her head.

“Aish...That guy told me to wait and he’s not yet—“

Yoona spotted a figure exactly in front of her. It was a man’s figure. He was wearing a pair of black trousers and a neat tux with a rose on his left chest. When her eyes met his, she knew, this night will be loads of fun.

@tracieywk: I know right *sighs*. When I was going to post the stories (I make them on MS word then I post them here) I was wondering why I couldn't see the start of each lines! In my opinion, AFF should really do something about this. It kinda disturbs the readers too. :)<br />
