Reality
You are mineJiyong's POV
I opened my eyes slightly and was hit by the sunlight. Great. I forgot to close the curtains. I touched the sheets beside me and glanced to check if Rose was here. But it was a dream. Just a dream. I couldn't keep being away from her. I needed to confess to her today. Man up, Jiyong! You can do it. I encouraged myself and woke up with full of energy. I wanted this day to go faster so I could meet Rose as fast as I can.
Your POV
I woke up because of my phone's ringtone that was super annoying.
- Halo?
- Hello! This is from Tree J Entertainment. Is it Rose Choi's number? - a woman asked. I sat up swiftly and felt my head spinning.
- Yes! Yes! It's Rose Choi, - I tried to sound like I was awake already.
- You are accepted as trainee in Tree J! Please come here at 12pm to discuss the contract and sign.
Oh. My. God. How can I express this feeling? Excited? Amazed? Maybe losing my mind?
- Thank you! - I stuttered a bit. - I will be there at 12pm.
After hanging up I felt like opening the window and screaming out loud that I got accepted as a trainee of Tree J! Jang Keun Suk sunbae's company! I can learn so much from him and maybe become a great actress!
I shared the happy news with my aunt, my friend Go Eun and I thought about texting Jiyong oppa but since we could meet up today I wanted to tell him face to face.
At Tree J
I was sitting in a very large room waiting for the person who will explain everything about the contract. After reflecting a bit I decided to be delicate and read everything written on it. Since I heard that some people get scammed or some other bad things happen when you are not careful with those kind of stuff.
- Hi Rose! - I heard Keun Suk come in the room with a smirk on his face. - How you've been? - he asked, sitting in front of me and looking right into my eyes.
- Hello, sunbae! - I felt myself a bit uncomfortable with him gazing at me like that. But I had to admit, his eyes seemed so deep that I felt like being lost there.
- So congratulations! You got accepted! - he grinned with a cute expression on his face.
- Thank you! And a separate thanks to you, sunbae! - Keun Suk glanced at me with a questioning look. - You helped me out a lot acting as my boyfriend! - I explained and grinned back.
- Well if you need someone to act as your boyfriend later then call me anytime, - Keun Suk made a calling gesture and chuckled.
- Okay. I'll remember that, - I replied and laughed back. I didn't know why but I felt my heart skip a bit seeing him smile like that. I felt like watching TV.
- But wait, if you are thankful then you should pay me back, right? - Keun Suk seemed excited about something. I slightly nodded. - Buy me dinner today. With soju! - he raised an eyebrow smiling and waiting for my response.
- Hmm, it depends on how good is the contract. Since you are the founder you took part in making it, right? - Keun Suk's smile faded a bit. - If the contract is okay, I'll buy you dinner with soju, - I stated.
- No way! You are going to be so rude with your sunbae? - he pouted acting as if he was incredibly offended.
- Sunbae, let's just focus on the contract, shall we? - with that said I opened the first page of the contract and started to read it.
After reading the contract thoroughly and asking about all the things that I was curious about I told him:
- Keun Suk sunbae, I will sign it now. Thank you for explaining everything to me!
- Don't worry, Rose! I promise that everything will be okay. Tree J is different. You will have freedom here, - he reassuringly nodded his head. I felt somehow confident hearing his words and felt encouraged. That's when I heard my phone's screen light up with a new notification.
*new message from Jiyong oppa*
Rose~ When will we meet up? I called you a few times but you didn't pick up.
I excused myself to Keun Suk and was about to leave when Keun Suk exclaimed:
- Don't forget about buying me dinner today, Rose! - I stopped.
- Today? Can't we meet other day? I just had someone else to meet today... - I felt sorry to Jiyong and kept fidgeting thinking about him. Keun Suk seemed like thinking for bit when Jiyong called.
- Hey! - I got out of the room.
- Rose, hi! - he tried to speak louder because of people around him.
- Are you at work? - I asked.
- Yeah, I mean I didn't have anything in my schedule but something came up, - he tried to explain. - But I well get off work in about 2-3 hours so I wanted to ask if you can meet me?
- Hmm, yeah I guess I can, - I replied.
- Then see you in a few hours! - Jiyong said, his voice so good to hear. As always.
I went back in the room and saw Keun Suk waiting for me.
- So do you have time today? - Keun Suk looked at me with hope in his eyes.
- Well I have 2-3 hours from now so let's go somewhere close, - I told him finally giving in.
- It's enough! We can have dinner, drink soju and you can go wherever you need to go! I won't even force you to drink! - Keun Suk got up and walked towards me faster than his normal pace.
- Then I'd be thankful! - I smiled and we got out of the room.
Keun Suk and I decided to go in the grilled meat restaurant nearby. After an hour of talking, discussing the future plans and joking a bit I felt that I got so used to being with him that it felt like we knew each other for a long time. I drank only a can of beer and Keun Suk drank two bottles of soju all by himself!
- Sunbae, you really are good at drinking, aren't you? - I looked at him amused.
- Well, I tried to be modest, but yeah, I'm good at it, - he smirked, bragging.
- Wanna try drinking soju? I bet it's your first time drinking it here! - he said and tried to pour it for me.
- Thank you,sunbae! - I held the glass with two hands showing my respect to him and just when I brought it close to my lips someone passing by hit my elbow making soju spill on my neck and my chest.
- Oh God... - I felt my cleavage getting wet. Keun Suk got up swiftly and tried to help me wiping the soju on my neck with a napkin.
- Rose?! - In the midst of noisy restaurant I saw someone approaching me calling my name. Me and Keun Suk stopped and glanced at him. Jiyong. It was Jiyong.
