Mirror..Mirror..

Two Stars

Girl POV:

I keep looking at my face in the mirror, then smiling. I realized that my face really like a new face when I’m smiling. I’ll have cold aura around me if I’m not smiling but it will change when I’m smiling.

“Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the prettiest girl in this world?,” I asked then grinning,

“Are you crazy?,”someone asked me, she is my manager, “you said you hate facing a mirror but you are doing what you hate now,” she said. I ever told her that I don’t really like mirror, just because if I’m looking at my own face, I’ll suddenly remember someone, someone who look like me,

“I just want to try it,” I said then left the room, that mirror is the only mirror in my house, there is no other than that.

I’m an actress, ah..a singer-actress, Bae Joohyun. But since this year I’m not that active as a singer because I keep get drama project. There is a reason why I choosed to be a singer-actress. I just want someone find me, someone who leave me 10 years ago, I want her to  comeback to me. If I often come out on TV, she’ll know that I’m still alive, that..her mirror still the same. It’s already my fourth year as singer-actress, but there is no response from her, sometime I have thought that maybe just maybe, she isn’t in Korea right now..or the worst possibility she is dead now, but I want to get rid that kind of thought, I believe she is somewhere, here in Korea, but she still hate me and don’t want to meet me.

Because there is no schedule for today,  the CEO of my agency want to meet me, he said that there is something he want to discuss,

“I’ll get a bodyguard for you,” he said when I’m ready to hear what he want to discuss with me.

“It’s not like a discussion, you just decided it yourself.”  Lately there is strange person who keep following me, I don’t know who is she/he. The agency staff have speculation that he/she is my stalker, but I’m not that famous, why stalker so sudden.

“I just want you to keep safe, you are a rising star now,” CEO said. Saying something like that, making me feel embarrassed, what kind of rising star?.

“I’m fine, just tell manager unnie to live with me, it’ll be fine,” I want to assure the CEO,

“But you still need one, someone who know how to fight, you don’t know how to fight, right?,” he asked, I’m nodding.

“Then..let me know him first, I’m just afraid someone new will come to my house and staying close to me,” I  said.

While in shooting field, someone keep practicing, there is a girl there with him. When he get nice score, the girl will applaud him,

“Good job,” she said.

“I must do a good job, my job need this talent,” he said, he is working as a bodyguard, he ever become bodyguard of important people in this country.

“But, I’m better than you,” she said, she is a trainer here, and his girlfriend, “let’s have lunch, near here there is a naengmyun restaurant, the best one. I’ll treat you because today you did a good job,” she said then smiling to him, he is smile back to her.

While eating their lunch, the boyfriend looking at the TV, there is an entertainment news that reported about a rising star, Bae Joohyun who will star in her new drama next month. Then he is looking at his girlfriend and looking back at the TV, then he ask her,

“Your face really resemble her,” he said, “it’s like both of you are twin,” then she is looking at him, it’s like she is mad, “am I wrong for saying that?, then sorry,” he said then continue eating.

“I never had twins, so stop saying that,” she said, then drink her water.

“Okay, sorry,” he said then smiling, begging her to smile back.

On their way back, there is phone call from his company,

“Yes, sunbae,” he said after picking up the call.

“For tomorrow schedule, Min will be the one who come, you have another schedule,” he said.

“Another one?, what is that?,” he asked.

“Meeting the star,” his sunbae said then end the call. He is looking at his girlfriend who keep starring at a poster where that actress who he said resemble her just now, “are you realizing it now that she resemble you?,” he asked while walking closer to her, then she is looking at him,

“Then why are you starring at her poster like that, Siyeon-ssi?,” he asked.

“Just..she is pretty,” she said then grinning, “what was the call?.”

“Sunbae changing my schedule for tomorrow for another schedule,” he said then grabbing her hand.

“What kind of schedule?,” while looking at him.

“He said I’ll meet a star, maybe he’ll drive me to the sky to meet the star,” he is joking, his girlfriend look speechless by his joke, “the other one that get canceled is as a third generation chaebol bodyguard. He’ll having his 25th birthday tomorrow,” he explained it to her.

“Meeting star is better then, you can flirting with a pretty girl,” she said.

“Who said that I’ll meet a pretty girl?, it can be a handsome boy too, right?,” he is teasing his easly jealous girlfriend, “why am I flirting with another girl when I’m having one here,” he said then hug her.

“It’s public place Kim Taehyung-ssi,” then pushing his body. “That’s great then,” she said while walking away from him.

“Come there with this, an hour before the target come,” he said, “if you succesed the mission, I’ll transfer it to you right away,” he said then leave her like that.  

“It has been long time,” she said then drink her coffee.

After meeting that certain someone, Siyeon keep practicing, she is shooting the target, mostly she get nice shoot,

“I know that you are looking for me, but if you know what I have been doing you’ll be surprised, ” she said after drink then continue practicing.
