Hands shook

Champagne popping, glasses clinking..

The most awaited contract finally finalised and signed. 

A soft  melodious piano piece played in the Hotel party hall,

A few business associates and board members only were invited, It was nothing as grand or spectacular as how their events usually are like, but a bigger celebration needlessly discussed or promised once their product hits the market and makes a huge success.

  Sighing for the nth time , Seohyun could almost swear she'd see the hideous green monster If she looked in a mirror right that moment.   Jealousy was eating her up, and there was no denial done or intended.   Watching Yonghwa stroll around the ballroom entertaining guests, with her adorning his sleeve like a champion's league mostly anticipated trophy, The very same clingy brunette she saw him with at their company.    He looks much better tho, his designer tuxedo that makes her wonder if it was the designer , the Material or the god like muscle mass underneath the fabric that makes her unable to look away. She can't even decide...   Does that make it something official? Bringing that woman as a partner for the night.   He could've asked her, but heck he even forgot their promised private dinner.   She had enough on her plate already, getting caught in a scandal with her childhood friend, when their small reunion turned into a confession and a proposal that was obviously shot by paparazzi and that she obviously had no idea it was going to happen Kyuhyun was a mere friend, She had never seen a wedding proposal coming. And hell everything escalated crazily fast that she barely opened to voice an opinion.   Sometimes, she forgets that she's followed almost everyday.   She was too tired to make a an interview or even an official Sentence to shut down the the press uproar so she just asked her lawyers to make sure those sites took down the articles. And true, It died down as quickly as it went viral.   As much as she disliked the sight of her friend, but she wished he was there as well.   Would that push any buttons on Yonghwa?  She'll never know, he might as well never react.   She drowned the wine glass in one go, Snatching another from the waiter who passed by her   Growing tired, The huge hall was even making her claustrophobic   She sauntered to a balcony for a brief breather   Leaning on the marble railing, It felt like as everything was going smooth for her father's  business,  her personal life was going downhill and far too complicated. Another sigh left her lips, coming a little louder than she intended   "Ow, that one could've blown me across the globe" A voice from behind her spoke   He came..   Looking at him with her glazed eyes and flushed cheeks, both from the wine and the cold wind biting at her skin, contrasting the fire going ablaze in her chest.   She looked over his shoulder praying that his is not following, and she wasn't anywhere in sight.   "Yonghwa-ssi" Her call came out expessionlessly.   "Seohyun-ssi" He nodded briefly , gulping the remaining of his glass before setting it on top of the railing   "I see you're alone tonight" He started, coming few steps closer to her.   "Well, I got unlucky, I was unable to find a good like you did" She flashed a tightlipped smile, turning to face the huge garden below their standing point.   "Oh But my company as far as I could observe is not as serious as a fiancé isn't it? Maybe I'm the unlucky one"  Bitterness clouded his tone, letting the smirk swipe over his face again.   "At least, she's available, a little too available for a working woman" She shrugged subtly referring to her sticking to him like a second skin all the time "Busy fiancés aren't the best of their kind are they?"   Catching herself playing along his game, did she just confirm his assumptions about kyuhyun?   Oh wait ! Did he even make an assumption?   "You're right" He mockingly agreed, snatching her glass from her a bit harshly and gulping it down before setting it  lined up with his own empty one.   "Have a good night, Seohyun-ssi" He his heels and went back inside the ballroom, unable to listen to her anymore, while she expressed her frustrations not being with her so called Fiancé.   Oh he hates the man.   He hated seeing her shivering and not daring giving her his jacket.   And how he wished he could envelop her tiny frame in his embrace, steal few kisses from her. They would end up tangled in bed sheets in his bedroom as he could never imagine a  better ending of the night.   But...   There is a another man on the line, and he couldn't do anything about it if she seemed to like her fiancé.   A fiancé that came so suddenly, out of nowhere   When Seohyun went back inside, the lone tear she was trying to keep inside all night fell down burning her cheek as she watched how Yonghwa bade farewell to his father and their guests Before taking the Woman's hand and leading her outside.   'He's spending the night with her, is he?' She said nodding her head vigorously practically to no one    Consumed by her anger she just walked outside and rode her car,   She left without any note.   Crying herself to sleep, that night,   And she knew   No she was damn sure,   Those feelings weren't a mere crush.   She was enamored.. ........   "What are you doing?" Seohyun eyed Rosé in confusion as the latter kept hitting keys furiously in her phone    "Summoning the girls and their most satanic ideas here, we have a girl to kill" Rosé flipped her hair as if she came up with a dead serious solution to the problem   "God Sé-yah! I'm being serious here"   "It's not serious enough? Should we bury her alive then?"   "No we're not killing anybody, I'm here just to talk it out or I'll burst and shed away"   "You ain't bursting just yet Seo-nah deh? We're definitely sorting that out, not just ranting about it, besides I'd just changed the couch covers, it'd be handful to take your million pieces out" She said patting the newly coated leather seats   "You're impossible, I'm going to the restroom" Seohyun got up not believing how sassy her bestie was    "Oh I'm ordering pizza" The blonde replied.   {previous night}   As soon as She had her lips attached on his neck he moved away, but she wasn't giving up just yet as she aimed for his lips this time   "STOP IT , So Hee, I'm not in the mood" He raised his voice making her recoil in her seat and pout   "You're never In the mood these days" She sulked.   "Tired, I'm taking you home" He said coldly as his car engine revved up   "What? You're not even taking me to your place? You're something " She scoffed   "What would I have you do in my place? I told u I'm not interested"   "Well I can do whatever you want" She gained back her seductive tone as her hand crawled on his thigh.   But he felt nothing.   Why is it so complicated to like somebody, why would all kind of factors have to stand in the way every time?   Placing his hand over hers, her eyes sparkled thinking he finally bit on the bait firmly, before he moved her hand away a little harsher than gentle.   "I'm taking you home, end of discussion" His lips set into a firm line as he was already Making a U-turn heading right to her place   "Not only the discussion but the end of us too" The last thing she said up until her flat came into view    He didn't even keep track of the moment she started believing that, but there was no so called 'us' to begin with.   She was just a worker at their corp, She was assigned to help him get a little on track since she was a long term employee.   She was the one making advances and trying to cross the colleagues line, and Yonghwa would be lying if he said that he didn't use her, he wanted to know if what he was experiencing with Seohyun, would be the same with any other.   But he felt nothing, if anything he realised that his situation with Seohyun was far more dangerous than he assumed,   The attraction kept on growing wether she was with him or not, Having her on his mind was doing the job.   The job of sinking him lower..   His eyes were fixed on the road but his mind kept replaying the article content, after he dropped off So Hee   She's getting married, yet she led your delusional a*s on!!   She had no shame, responding positively to my advances whenever I flirt, And the next thing she's getting proposed to..   She could be even planning her marriage by now for all he knew.  

He hit the steering wheel hard, just as he was about to take a turn, but as his hands left the steering wheel, the car swerved violently towards the lane, He applied extra effort to gain back control over his car that his wrist was twisted hard, it was fortunate that there were no other cars or pedestrians

He cursed loudly holding his injured wrist.

{Present- Rosé's Flat}

"The Bast*rd! How dare he flaunt his B*tch in front of you after flirting with you" Lisa was fuming

"I can't believe I trusted him after being nice to us that night, he looked every bit taken by you" Jennie pulled Seohyun into her embrace "Mianhe hyunnie"

"Aniyo Jen, You were as fooled as I was, it's no one's fault" Seohyun wanted to act like she was okay, but the girls knew her so well so it was of no use

"Are we seriously not doing anything about it?" Jisoo wondered

"I told her we could kill the girl and she could have her man back" Rosé picked up a pizza slice and all eyes flew to her.

"She had the same reaction as you. What? you have no better ideas" She took a bite

"The killing thingy? let's leave it as a last option" Jennie started with a chuckle "For now, let's try making him taste his own medicine" She grinned

"Oh, we're so making him jealous in return"

"Gosh Jen, we're not in high school anymore, and we're not sure if he likes me" Seohyun threw her hands in the air

"Duh, He does!" Jisoo pointed

"If he does, he'd still be attempting to approach me, not having a girl joined to him by the hip" Seohyun sighed

"It doesn't hurt to try, what if it works?"

"Alright, what should I do" Seohyun looked at each of them in turn

"For that task, we need
