Princess & The Thief
It was one fine afternoon at the Im Manor. Yoona was watching a drama on TV while Myungsoo kept an eye on her from a post near there.
Yoona's eyes were focused on the screen as the scene changes to when the female protagonist got slapped on the face by her mortal enemy. Unconsciously she let out a faint gasp. Oh wow this is getting interesting.
Gosh, what is so interesting about those cliche scenes anyway? Myungsoo put on his signature poker face from his stance. He has his arms folded and his back rested onto the white wall. He's keeping an eye on the princess since he's her bodyguard. And in the end, he has to watch this sappy, romance drama instead of a thrilling, action drama he likes. He's staring straight at the screen when the female and the male protagonist kissed after having a huge fight about something. Myungsoo cringed. "Oh God..." he muttered. Just kill me already! On the other hand, Yoona seems really happy about the scene as she kept muttering 'aww' and such.
From the distance, she could hear the doorbell faintly ringing, but she didn't pay any attention to it.
"Yoona!" someone squealed in a very –annoying– perky tone.
Yoona stiffened. That annoying voice... she slowly turn around and stading in front of her, stood a tall, young lady dressed in Chanel from head to toe.
"K-Krystal." Yoona said in a high tone that matched the girl in front of her.
Hm? Who's that girl? Myungsoo watched the two, still from his stance.
"It's been a while, isn't it?" Krystal squealed once more and gave Yoona a big hug.
"Yeah.. Umm.. What are you doing here?" Yoona tried not to sound rude.
Krystal loosen her hug and fixed her eyes toward her 'friend'. "Why? You don't like me here?" she pouted.
Yeah I don't like you here. Yoona restrained her eyes from rolling. "It's not like that. I'm just... surprised." she faintly smiled.
"Surprised? Don't tell me you forgot."
Yoona stare at her blankly. Forgot? About what?
Krystal took out something from her bag. "White Gloves? Ring a bell?" She wiggled a pair of lacey white gloves in front of Yoona.
The White Gloves Club is basically a club of rich girls –mostly the daughters of multi-millionares and sometimes royalties– they come together at one place to enjoy tea together –with their white gloves on, of course– and chat –gossip– about the latest social issue –or in this case, fashion and sometimes who's dating who. Or at least that's what they say in the manual book.
Oh right. That stupid tea and gossip thingy... Yoona sighed. "Yes. My bell just rung."
"Goodie! Because the others will be here any minute now." Krystal glanced at her Swarovski bejeweled watch.
"Okay. I'll go get my white gloves.." Yoona dragged her feet upstairs while Krystal busily ordering the maids and butlers to make tea and snacks for them as if she's the mistress of the house.
So the princess does have friends. I thought she only has that Minho guy. Oh and that Lulu person too. Myungsoo shrugged as he left his stance toward the security office to do his bodyguard stuff.
There was a loud murmur and chatter at the Im Manor's garden. Krystal and Yoona organized the small event and the other guests arrived right after.
"Ladies!" Krystal hit her glass with a silver spoon, making the ladies turn their heads to her.
"Thank you and welcome to The White Gloves tea party!" She clapped, followed by the others.
"And let us thank Im Yoona, for letting us do this event at her beautiful, gorgeous house."
Yoona instinctively stood up from her seat while everyone clapped for her.
"Well, without further ado, let the tea party begin!" Everyone cheered along with Krystal while Yoona just repetitively roll her eyes in her seat.
2 hours of torture.. You can do this, Yoona.
