“Bora, give some more light on this area,” Howon requested and Bora immediately responded with a nod.

“Tilt your head more to the side. That’s it. Good,” Key cued as he directed the photo shoot.

“He looks like an experienced model to me,” Jia whispered making Key nod.

Both of them turned to Suzy who was standing between them, eyes fixed on the monitor as it flashed pictures of Sehun. She was biting her nails as she refused to admit that the guy is good. Key and Jia looked at each other knowingly as they were able to read Suzy’s reactions. Jia then walked away to fix Sehun’s look while Key spoke,

“Is he that handsome to make you speechless?”

Suzy rolled her eyes and sighed before saying, “You know how much I don’t like arrogant people.”

“He’s not arrogant!” Key defended.

“He’s just… boosting with confidence,” Jia added as she returned back.

“And confidence is a trait models should have,” Key argued but Suzy said nothing as her gaze travelled to Sehun.

He was carrying the clothes well and he was able to elicit the right emotions for the shoot. He needed to change into the several clothes that Bora gave him and Jia also had to change his make-up every time to compliment the apparel. Time flew by without anyone of them realizing until Suzy called,

“All right everyone! That’s it!”

As usual, they cheered and clapped as they finished another set of work. Howon scratched the back of his neck before walking towards Suzy and saying,

“I’ll post process the pictures and send it to you tonight.”

“It’s okay,” Suzy smiled. “I can do it by myself.”

“Sure?”

“Hmmm,” Suzy nodded and both of them turned to the three who were happily cheering for Sehun. Howon smiled before he approached them and shook Sehun’s hand.

“Sorry I was not able to introduce first before working,” he apologized. “I’m Lee Howon.”

“Nice to meet you,” Sehun bowed making Key whisper to Suzy,

“I told you. He’s nice.”

“I don’t get why you need to sell him to me,” Suzy whispered back.

“Because he’s going to be a part of this group.”

“And since when did you become a fortune teller?”

“Just now,” Key shrugged before smiling at Sehun and saying, “He’s Howon, the photographer in the morning and Hoya, the dancing machine at night.”

“Mwoya?” Howon chuckled. “You make me look like a bipolar person.”

“Because I am consistent unlike you,” Key boasted.

“Yoon Bora here,” Bora tapped Sehun’s shoulder in a friendly manner. She then smiled as she pointed at Key and said, “Key’s telling the truth. He has been a Diva since forever.”

“His real name is Kim Kibum but he’s hiding it under the screen name Key,” Howon added making Key complain. Key also gave Bora a sharp look and the latter just gave him a threatening nod in reply. Jia chuckled and took her turn and said,

“I’m Meng Jia. I’m Chinese so please use simple words with me from now on-“

“Now on?” Sehun cut her off. “You mean, I can work here again?”

“Hmmm,” Jia happily nodded making Sehun’s eyes twinkle in anticipation until Suzy broke the light atmosphere.

“That’s not sure yet,” Suzy said flatly. “We’ll just give you a call if we’re going to need you again.”

“She’s Bae Suzy by the way,” Jia said.

“Forgive her. I think she left her manners at home,” Key added.

Suzy rolled her eyes and waved her hand in dismissal as she said, “Whatever. I’m going back to the office.”

Others just fell silent as they watched Suzy leave the studio. They looked at each other before breaking into laughter until they heard Suzy shout,

“I can hear you!”

They then choked out their laughter and calmed down after a few seconds and Sehun asked,

“Is she always like that?”

“She’s not that sociable but Suzy’s really kind,” Bora answered.

“You two just started on the wrong foot,” Jia explained. “That’s why she’s cold.”

“Do you think I can change her impression of me?” Sehun asked again.

“If you’ll work hard for it,” Howon smiled. “She’ll open up.”

“Ohhhh,” Sehun nodded but scratched his head with a sheepish smile as he added, “But I’m not even sure if I’ll be given the chance.”

“You did well,” Key assured him with a smile. “Let’s just hope for the best.”

 

 

“Su,” a voice called her name. She fluttered her eyes open as she felt another shook.

“Oh, oppa,” she whispered.

“Would you please at least pretend that you’re not disappointed because it’s me who woke you up?” Howon chuckled.

Suzy yawned and stretched her arms before saying, “I fell asleep while waiting for their response from the pictures. Why are you so early?”

“Your boyfriend woke me up with a call and told me that he spotted you alone in the office,” Howon said as he went to his own desk and dropped his things. “He kept pestering me to accompany you.”

“Sorry,” she mumbled before giggling because of Myungsoo’s thoughtfulness. Then, she suddenly gasped and asked, “Wait. What? He spotted me?”

“Hmmm,” Howon nodded as he spun in hi

Chapter 35: Jaka nim, thank you so much for this story. I loved it so much and I have never felt such emotions for a long time...U made me realise how important it is to love yet that love must be pure and certain. Seeking for certainty is such a powerful love story and I learned that life will always throw u back and forth, you just need to be certain of who u meet and who to trust. But first of all, you gotta trust yourself and believe in ur innate strength that no matter what, u can stand up on ur own. Thank you once again. ?❣️??

Chapter 35: Okay first I'm not really into angst and I loved the fact that you aren't ending this in the most tragic way.
Confession, I am more rooting for Sehun and Suzy than Myungsoo and Suzy. Okay, I probably the minority here but I have my own reason for rooting on Hunzy.
Yes, sehun and suzy started the wrong way. Sehun started it wrong. He court her not because he loved her, it's started with a kind of dumb revenge which shouldn't be existed. So why do I still am rooting for them even between all of the lies? Because Sehun is courageous enough to choose Suzy over anyone else. Call it selfish, but I think it was form of courage. The only coward thing he did after fully realising his feeling towards her was that he didn't let Suzy know the true story before Soojung did. If only he is brave enough to spill the bean, perhaps Suzy will be a bit less hurted. After all, knowing the truth from the one you love will be a lot better than to have another tell you how you actually had been toyed all this while added with nothing but confirmation from those who held your heart that what other told you was somehow true.
Then why am I not rooting for Myungsoo? Simple because he wasted his chance. He could've runaway from his family even before the engagement yet he don't. He could've reject the option to marry Soojung (even runaway from the wedding is always an option) yet he didn't. He always had the chance to choose Suzy over everything else yet he hadn't. Even if he had been written as someone who loves her unconditionally; someone who is willing to sacrifice himself for her, it still didn't hide the fact that he is not courageous enough to pursue their forever.
If they said that Soojung and Sehun's love were selfish, then what were theirs? Myungsoo and Suzy also practiced that selfish love; a kind of selfish love which actually way worst than the one Soojung and Sehun had.
However, this is good for my not so "angsty lover" taste. I am thankful that you write this. Sorry for the long comments!
