PRESENT

Whoever said life is a rollercoaster, just enjoy the ride is so full of themselves. That was what Suzy thought. 

Everything was a blur, really. It was an impromptu thing to buy a ticket to Paris.
 

Despite Chaeyoung mentioning the night before that she didn't have enough time in the City because of her schedule, the actress wanted to surprise her girlfriend. She couldn't miss being with the singer in the country where they met and fell in love. 
 

Suzy had it all planned out. Once she arrives in Paris, she'd settle into a hotel--- the same one Chaeyoung was staying in.

"I'll be heading to my room. Enjoy, okay? You deserve this." Her manager said with a smile. Now Suzy is left on her own with her thoughts. It's all going to be alright, she's gonna love it, right?

Tears.

Suzy had been an actress for years. She's been used to it. The crying. It was hard at first, to bring out such strong emotions from literally nothing. Acting was hard but it made her feel like she's flying --- that she was able to give life to a character written by someone and exists only in their imagination.

The actress loved to read when she was little. Suzy even befriended the librarian in her previous school. A woman in her late 50s who'd suggest her books. The woman would always give her books for children. She e
