Chapter 2

Baby steps

An young eighteen years old girl with long, straight, red hair sat in front of the drum set. Her hands holding the drum sticks as she played the drums. She started to sing.

 

 

"Who You Are" by Jessie J

I stare at my reflection in the mirror:
"Why am I doing this to myself?"
Losing my mind on a tiny error,
I nearly left the real me on the shelf.
No, no, no, no, no...

Don't lose who you are in the blur of the stars!
Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing,
It's okay not to be okay.
Sometimes it's hard to follow your heart.
Tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising,
Just be true to who you are!
(who you are [11x])

Brushing my hair—do I look perfect?
I forgot what to do to fit the mould, yeah!
The more I try the less it's working, yeah
'Cause everything inside me screams
No, no, no, no, no...

Don't lose who you are in the blur of the stars!
Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing,
It's okay not to be okay.
Sometimes it's hard to follow your heart.
But tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising,
There's nothing wrong with who you are!

Yes, no, egos, fake shows, like whoa!
Just go and leave me alone!
Real talk, real life, good love, goodnight,
With a smile that's my home!
That's my home, no...

No, no, no, no, no...

Don't lose who you are in the blur of the stars!
Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing,
It's okay not to be okay...
Sometimes it's hard to follow your heart.
Tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising,
Just be true to who you are!
Yeah yeah yeah

 

 

 

 

 

 

She finished her song when she heard clapping sounds.

 

"T..Taeyeon..? What are you doing here?" Tiffany asked.

 

"I just came to by to check up on you, best friend. Anyways, I never knew you were a fan of Jessie J." said Taeyeon.

 

Tiffany smiles, "I love this song." she says.

 

"I can tell. Anyways, Mr. Ok wants me to tell you that he wants you to practice on your dancing and acting skills." 

 

"Oh.. Okay."

 

"I have to go now."

 

"Where?"

 

"Mr. Ok wants to talk to me so I'll meet you back at home." said Taeyeon before she left the piano room.

 

Tiffany sighs and she lost her interest in practicing.

 

'Taeyeon-ah, when are you going to tell me?'

 

Tiffany clenched her fist.

 

Tiffany had always disliked the fact that her best friend was keeping secrets from her and what made it worst was that she had to discover the truth in the wrong way.

 

The day Tiffany discovered the truth, she was running late to practice so she decided to take a short cut through the staff's room which trainees were not allowed to enter. She ran down the hall and made a right turn but stopped when she heard a moan.

 

Out of curiosity, she took a peek through the slightly opened door and saw Taeyeon beneath their boss, Mr. Ok Taecyeon who was also .

 

They were too busy having s*x to notice her.

 

Tiffany was shocked and disgusted.

 

And now, whenever she sees Mr. Ok Taecyeon, she feels disgusted and pitied his wife even though she doesn't know who his wife was.

 

Tiffany got up and puts the drum stricks into her backpack before she swung her backpack around her shoulders before making her way out of the room.

 

Suddenly she gets a text from her father.

 

To: Stephanie

From: Daddy

Stephanie, when are you going to quit that stupid dream of yours? You would have such a better opportunity if you decide to work for me. The Hwang Enterprise needs its heir. I need you, Steph.. 

 

Tiffany sighs as she read the text and decided to text back.

 

To: Daddy

From: Stephanie

No daddy. I already told you that I wasn't interested. I wish you understood how important music is to me..

 

Since Tiffany was to busy typing away her message, she accidentally walked into someone.

 

"S..Sorry.. Are you alright?" Tiffany asked as she checked to latter for injuries.

 

The latter nods while staring blankly at her.

 

"Are you a trainee here?" the woman asked in a soft voice.

 

"Yes I am. How did you know?" asked Tiffany.

 

"Because you look pretty young." The woman says.

 

"You look quite young yourself. Are you a new trainee? I never saw you before." said Tiffany.

 

"No, I'm not. I'm Jessica Jung by the way." said Jessica.

 

"I..I'm Tiffany Hwang." said Tiffany, stuttering.

 

Jessica smiled at how cute Tiffany was. 

 

"You can call me unnie since I'm older than you." she says.

 

"O..Okay.." Tiffany says shyly. "Uh.. Um.. I have to go now. Bye bye unnie." Then she ran off in the speed of light.

 

Jessica shook her head at how the younger girl acted then she smiled.

 

"Such an energetic person." she said to herself before she walked straight down the hallway and to her husband's office.

Tiffany ran back to the dorm and met some of her fellow roommates.

 

The other girls saw her and waved their hands.

 

"Hey Fany-ah, where's Taeyeon?" they asked.

 

"She's busy with something." said Tiffany.

 

"Oh, that's too bad. We were going to show her something funny." said a girl with blond hair.

 

"What is it?" asked Tiffany, curious to know.

 

"No no. You can't see this, Fany. Young innocent kids like you shouldn't see this." siad the blond girl.

 

"So, is it for byuns like all of you and Taeyeon-ah?" asked Tiffany, confused.

 

"You could say that." the blond smirked.

 

Tiffany felt chills all over her body.

 

She was surrounded by byuns and some of them had took pictures of her when she was changing before.

 

"Sunny! How could you say that? We're no erts! We just have wild imaginations!" said a taller girl.

 

Sunny laughs.

 

"Pulease~ You and Taeyeon are the biggest byun out of all of us, Yuri!" Sunny high fives with Yoona and Sooyoung.

 

"Whatever." Yuri mutters.

 

Tiffany clears .

 

"I'm going to bed. Later." she says and started to walk to her room when a hand stopped her.

 

"Fany, we're bestfriends, right?" asked Sunny.

 

Tiffany nods.

 

"Then you should know that you could trust me."

 

"I do, Soonkyu."

 

"Fany~"

 

"Alright, I'll stop calling you that, Sunny-bunny." 

 

Sunny smiled before she hugged Tiffany tightly.

 

Tiffany hugged back and closed her eyes.

 

"You won't hide anything from me, right?"

 

"I won't Sunny-bunny."

 

"You know I love Taeyeon-ah, right?" Sunny wispered, aware that the other girls were still around.

 

Tiffany nodded.

 

"Please don't lie to me.. I know that Taeyeon is seeing some guy already. You're right if you think that I'm hurting by that but it hurts more when my own best friend lies to me in order to protect me. Don't ever lie to me." Sunny begs.

 

"I'll try, Sunny-ah.." Tiffany mumbles.

 

"Thank you, Fany."

Taecyeon released himself into Taeyeon and quickly dressed her up then dressed himself afterwards.

 

"Mr. Ok.. I don't think this is right.." Taeyeon softly mumbled.

 

"Why not, Taeyeon? You love me, don't you?" he asked while carressing her arm.

 

"B..But you have a wife." she says.

 

"She doesn't know about us, Taeyeon."

 

"Mr. Ok.."

 

"Call me Taecyeon when we're alone." he demanded.

 

"T..Taecyeon.."

 

"Yes Taeyeon?"

 

"Do you love me?" she asked.

 

He smiled and pulled her closer.

 

"Of course I do." he says.

 

"Prove it. Kiss me."

 

"As you wish, my Taeyeon-ah." he says before capturing her lips.

Jessica was walking to her husband's office when she sees a young woman walk out of her husband's office happily.

 

Jessica raised a brow thinking that it was odd.

 

Then she walks into her husband's office and sees her husband sitting at his desk while looking at his phone.

 

Jessica cleared to get his attention and it worked as he looked up in surprise.

 

"Sica? What are you doing here?" he asked her.

 

Jessica fakes a smile.

 

"Can't I come to see my husband who I haven't seen in days?" she asked.

 

"Of course you can but it's best if you shouldn't. I'm a busy man, you know." he says before he walked over to her and embraced her.

 

Jessica could smell another woman's perfume on him and she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

 

This bastard was cheating on her!

 

"You don't seem busy though." she says.

 

"What are you doing here?" 

 

"I came to ask you to let me work." she says.

 

"No." 

 

"Why not?!" Jessica fumed.

 

"Because you're a married woman. You're my wife. No other men shall see you. You're mine to see alone and mine to have and hold." he said, possessively.

 

Jessica gritted her teeth. 

 

He made her sound like his puppet. A toy that he could play with and she hated it.

 

"You mad?" he smirked.

 

Jessica pushed him off and stormed out of his office.

 

Taecyeon chuckled to himself and ran his hand through his hair.

 

Taecyeon knew that Jessica can't do anything. She was tied to him and he won't let her go even if he doesn't love her anymore. She was hot and she was his. He doesn't intend to let her run off so other men could have her even if he was cheating on her with a younger woman who was equally as hot as she was. Taecyeon also knew that Jessica would never want to see her kids suffer without a father and she definitely wouldn not want to disappoint her parents so he knew that she'll stay even if she was angry at him. She will stay.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

**

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jessica got into her car and screamed.

 

Then she started sobbing.

 

"Mom... dad... help me.. please let me be free from him.." 

 

Even if she cried, she knew that nothing good would come from it. Her parents wouldn't save her. They loved the idea of her being married to a wealthy man especially since Jessica did not start off rich. Her family was actually poor and slightly below middle class. Her parents were really ill since they didn't have money to buy medicine or food. So when her parents heard that she was dating and getting married to a rich man, they were extremely proud of her. Jessica didn't have the courage to break her parents hearts. Her parents needed the money provided by Taecyeon. And that's the reason why Jessica can't leave Taecyeon. He was the key to saving her parent's lives because even though she used to be a model and a singer, she wasn't making as much money to even support herself due to all of the payments and the bills she was receiving.
