Right Direction
Taeyeon
The day ended with everything all a blur to me - except one fact. My five days remaining here in Seoul is going to be spent with Jessica Jung.
Jessica Jung the girl who broke my heart years ago, the person that my heart still longs for and the only one capable of shaking up my entire existence.
Right now, we are having dinner in the hotel's restaurant as it is part of my work to do an evaluation of the food and service and I can't help but notice and be bothered with the spark on Jessica's eyes I am trying to avoid or I might be blinded, her sweet, sweet smile that's creeping up to my heart and her melodious voice I think I'm hearing angels sing.

"Jessica, I hope you don't mind me dropping the formalities." I started which earned me a weary smile from the girl.
"Tae, were friends. You don't have to act and address me in a formal manner."
Oh, right. Friends. I thought.
"Well yeah, just making sure. In a way, you're still a step ahead of me on the organizational ladder." This earned me a frown from Jessica.
"Taeyeon, you can talk casually to me, okay? It doesn't matter what position I hold in the company. At times like this, just speak comfortably, please."
"Alright. So how are you, Jessica?" I decided to ask, I'm partially curious as to what she's been up too for the past years that I have been away.
