Meeting you was fate...

Becoming your friend was a choice...

But falling in love with you was beyond my control.

Bae Joohyun had ended a four year relationship with her boyfriend. It was a hard decision, but she wanted to have a peaceful life again, free from stress and free from hurting. Maybe four years of being foolishly in love was enough, she needed some rest...her heart does.

And at some point of her life, when she finally had moved on, fate couldn't just let her be. She thought she had escaped the chaotic world of romance and conflicts until...her ex-boyfriend suddenly popped out of nowhere and had to disturb her life again. Her mind was blank for a while and with panic arising deep within her, she did something stupid.

Something unexpected.

But right at this moment, it was the only way she could think of to escape her situation with her ex.

"What are you doing here?" Joohyun froze as her nightmare appeared before her. Her eyes were trembling with disgust and fury.

"Joohyun~ah, please give me one more chance. I want to make things right." The tall man tried to reach her but she flinched instantly.

"No. Don't you dare touch me. It's been a year, I'm doing fine now. I...I won't let you destroy it again." She shook her head as she walked backwards but he just inched forward.

"Please, baby. Come back to me. It's just~" before he could continue, he was cut off immediately, she was looking at another direction. Then he followed her gaze.

"Oh! There you are." She looked enthusiastic as ever. Her acting skills grew better day by day, she could even audition to another yet movie if she only had the guts to do so. Joohyun sauntered towards a woman, clad in a casual hooded sweater and a black skinny jeans, paired with her brown Suede desert boots. Her simple get up caught a lot of attention from the males around the area, even girls looked her way.

Joohyun inhaled a mouthful of air. She hesitated.

But it was all or nothing.

The female threw away her little pride in her, tipped her toes, and planted her lips on the confused woman's lips. She was unaware of the stares they stole from the crowd until she felt a pair of lips returned her kisses.

Her eyes widened in shock as she pulled out of the kiss. She could feel the stranger's hands were resting on her waist, supporting her shaking body. The female with monolid eyes that stared at her soul, her lips quirked up as she looked at the other guy who was actually gaping at them.

Yeah, two women kissing in public.

It wasn't so hard for her to understand what was happening.

She decided to ride along.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry..." The shorter girl whispered, her eyes closed briefly.

"Hey babe. I've been looking everywhere for you since we got separated earlier...where have you been?" She trailed as her eyes landed to the man before them. And that male was shooting daggers at him, she didn't care.

Joohyun blinked, totally clueless on what the female beside her was doing,  was she helping me?

"Come, let's go." She gaped at her, nonetheless, she let her pulled her along with her.

For a moment, she was thankful. Thankful that her ex didn't follow them. Yet on the second thought, she was regretting that she dragged an innocent woman in her damn situation. The thrilling part where she was clueless who the girl was. Just a random person she pulled in for a kiss because she was stupid. She needed an escape and she saw her.

"Hey there my instant girlfriend." The taller female called. She sighed, she somehow has to fix this." 

Did she just lined me with some nissin' cup noodles? The hell!

"Look, I'm so sorry for the kiss. It meant nothing. I was just~"

"Couldn't think of any solution to get rid of your ex?"

"H-how di~"

She smirked.

"That wasn't so hard to interpret at all." She shrugged and slid her hands inside her jeans' pockets. "Well, see you around. You'll never know, it might mean nothing to you now but next time we kiss it'll be because you're already in love with me." She winked playfully. She smiled, it was genuine but calculated.

Before she left, she waved and walked backwards while looking at her, who's blatantly gawking at her.

"I'm Seulgi by the way. Kang Seulgi." She grinned. "I hope you'll remember it babe." Seulgi saluted before her figure disappeared along the busy street.

It dawned to her what had happened. Did she just throw herself in her new labyrinth?

Just as she got back on her right track, she once again had her unexpected reset.

What made her think that we'll kiss again? Wow. The confidence.
