Ten
What is Happiness?Sandy was in a daze when Minzy showed her around the mansion. She saw the game room, the meeting room, ballroom, dining area, etc. They didn't even finish because she felt overwhelmed, she told Minzy to continue the tour some other time.
She's now back in her room. Everything here seemed fancier than everything she ever owned in her entire life. Even this room is bigger than her family's dining-kitchen area(in their apartment, the kitchen and dining room are combined).
"I wish my family's here with me. Durami would be so ecstatic, Sanghyun would be amazed beyond his mind and mom would be, well she'd be able to rest better."
Someone knocked on her door and said, "It is I, Mr. Young. May I come in?"
"Yes you may." She said after unlocking the door.
"Hello, Ms. Park. Welcome to The Choi Mansion. I would like to personally welcome you here. I'm sorry I wasn't present earlier, I was sent to do an errand equally as important." The man said.
"He must be the butler Mingkki was talking about." He is old, somewhere around late 50s to early 60s. Like everything and everyone here in the mansion, he has an aura of class and elegance in him. He was also carrying a big box.
"Where may I lay this down?" He asked.
"You can put it here." She pointed to her bed.
"This is for you. It's a welcoming gift. Please wear it to dinner tonight. Ms. Choi specifically chose the color and design."
Sandy was in awe for the nth time. She opened the box and saw the prettiest dress she's ever seen. She can't believe it's hers.
"Please tell Tiffany if there's a problem with the size so that we can have it fixed right away. That is all I have for now. Once again, welcome, Ms. Park." Mr. Young bowed, left and he closed the door just as he was leaving.
She didn't even say goodbye nor thank you, she just bowed back. She was still in awe. She has never heard of anyone getting a dress as a welcoming gift. "Can someone pinch me? If this is a dream, I don't ever want to wake up."
She pinched herself just to be sure and it hurt like hell. "I'm awake alright."
She took the dress out of the box and stood in front the tall mirror at the side of her room. It's really pretty and looks and smells expensive too. "Can I really wear this? Is this really going to be mine??"
She wore the dress to see if it fits and right it did, just like it was made just for her.
"No wonder they asked for my size. This feels so good on the skin! I was right, expensive clothes don't itch! I'm going to tell Durami when I call her later!"
**Kim's residence**
Jaejoong was getting ready for the dinner with the Chois. He was looking at his wardrobe. For the first time in his 34 years, he has trouble picking what to wear.
"Is this what women go through everytime they go out? Dang, I'm doomed." After 30 minutes of rummaging, he finally decided on just the basics.
His phone rang while getting ready.
"Jae, where are you?? Marco's back and he's having a party at Speak Low tonight. You have to be there, man!"
It's his friend, Eric. "I know but I have an appointment. Have fun without me."
"What? This is so not you, man. 5 months ago, you would've rescheduled anything just for Marco's party." It's true. Their friend throws the best party for bachelors. Perfect booze + perfect place + perfect women. He was a regular at his parties until he grew tired of it.
"Can't do it this time, man. It's a dinner with a future business partner."
"Is that a woman? It is, isn't it? You wouldn't be missing a good party over some 'business partner'." His friend insisted.
"No, it's Choi Seunghyun."
"Whoa, the Korean invader?! You finally decided to join forces with him, huh? Anyway, that deal better make you millions or else it's just a waste."
Seunghyun is known as The Korean Invader in the business world because of how he "invaded" the Chinese business industry.
"It will. You know I don't mess with less, man. Anyway, send my regards to
