In Search Of The Mystery Man
She Followed Me HomeMinHo was so caught up in his conversation with Suzy he barely noticed the door bell ringing. He stood up from his couch and
opened the door. The person ringing the doorbell had been ChaeWon "Noona MinHo paused for a sec surprised to see
ChaeWon. "What are you doing here." MinHo questioned. "I came to see you ChaeWon smiled and walked into the house and
headed towards the kitchen. Un gluing his eyes from ChaeWon's face for the first time. MinHo noticed that she was caring a
plastic bag, "What's that for?" MinHo questioned still trying to figure out what ChaeWon was doing here. "Well you have been
acting weird lately so I figured you weren't feeling very well, and brought you some food." She put the bag on the counter and
started taking various items out. "Why would you think I'm sick." questioned MinHo becoming more confused about the
situation. ChaeWon picked her head up out of the bag, and turned to MinHo. "Since last night." ChaeWon answered "First you
showed up late, then you left early without saying bye, and I haven't seen or heard from you today. If you aren't sick then what's
going on." "Oh you noticed that." MinHo asked. "Yeh I noticed why wouldn't." ChaeWon noticed that MinHo was beginning to act
weird again. "Well last night it seemed like you were to preoccupied to notice . " said MinHo. "What do you mean preoccupied?"
asked ChaeWon trying to figure out what exactly was bugging MinHo. "When I showed up late that night it seemed as if you
didn't even care. You were smiling and laughing with JaeJoong hyung. Unlike the night when hyung didn't show up, after 30
min. I could tell you were upset and mad. All you did was drink constantly bring up hyung. That night I even made a promise to
you which I broke last night. Did you notice that!" MinHo finally let out what was sitting on his heart so heavily. MinHo knew he
had come across as a little angry,the evidence clearly showed. He was no longer against the wall of the kitchen's entrance. Now
he was slowly pacing in and out of the kitchen he was now slightly breathing heavy. Calming himself down MinHo began
leaning on the wall again looking into ChaeWon's face. Her expression that lingered between a smile and confusion was now
replaced by a different one. MinHo couldn't tell what she was thinking, suddenly the brief second between MinHo letting
everything of his chest and ChaeWon not yet replying to him. "Is that what it was, the reason you were quite and why you left
early."ChaeWon asked, her voice was now sympathetic and understanding. "Did I let too much out?" MinHo thought to himself
hoping he didn't inadvertently let ChaeWon see his true feelings. "It just feels like you would rather hang out with JaeJoong
hyung instead of me." MinHo quickly said trying to obscure ChaeWon's thoughts on what he said. "Mianhae. I didn't know you felt
that way. I didn't truly expect you to keep that promise. I only forced you to make Because I was drunk and angry. ChaeWon
moved towards MinHo and hugged him. MinHo clenched his jaws, his heart began beating just as fast as it did that night
ChaeWon was on his back. "We have been close friends since we were little. So the night you didn't show up I didn't get upset
because I new you would be there eventually." "Aish" MinHo quickly broke free from ChaeWon's grasp "It wasn't serious enough
for you to hug me." MinHo pretended to be irritated with ChaeWon's hug, trying to further hide his feelings. ChaeWon laughed
and went back to preparing the food. "Seeing how you still act like a jealous child, I thought I'd have to treat you like one again."
ChaeWon chuckled. " What, jealous ch-." "Noona, I changed my mind go and hang out with JaeJoong hyung all you want. I don't
care anymore, go ahead go have fun." MinHo sneered becoming annoyed with ChaeWon's teasing. "Don't worry I was only
stopping by to prepare the food I have somewhere to be later." Laughed ChaeWon seeing how MinHo seemed to be in a better
mood. "So where do you have to be?" Asked MinHo seeing potential to tease ChaeWon back. " "I'm going out with a friend, and
no I'm not telling you who it is." MinHo turned to walk to the living room, avoiding a conversation about ChaeWon's personal life.
"It's probably just one of her cast mates." MinHo thought to himself sitting down at looking at the TV. Coincidentally a preview of
the next episode on ChaeWon's show was on. It was a scene with the male lead of the show in it. Which also renewed
Minho's interest in who ChaeWon was seeing tonight. Mainly because the male lead is Choi SiWon. Seeing him and having
thoughts of him being ChaeWon's "DATE" made him feel like his chance with her was getting smaller. "Noona, who did you say
you were going to meet again?" Questioned MinHo with renewed interest. "I didn't say!" huffed ChaeWon taking the chance to
tease MinHo again. "So are you going to tell me." MinHo was fully intent on finding out who ChaeWon was meeting "Why, you're
going to start acting like a jealous child again? "Jealous ch-. Forget it, I just wanted to know who to feel bad for. I'd feel bad for
anyone having to be with you for the night." Snapped MinHo. ChaeWon laughed "Oh Jinjjah, thats funny because I was lying
about the outing. It's tomorrow, tonight you're the one stuck with me. "AISH" MinHo turned and rushed back to his seat.
ChaeWon laughed at the sight of MinHo's frustration. "MinHo ah, MinHo ah" ChaeWon called over the counter with an open view
to the living room. MinHo was set on not answering so ChaeWon walked over and sat next to him. "ooh Our MinHo always gets
mad when he's teased but loves to tease other." Said ChaeWon as she raised her hand and started playing with MinHo hair.
"Noona, shouldn't you be making sure you don't burn the house down." "Yah I just walked in here it's not like the food is going to
suddenly burst into flames." replied ChaeWon as she got up to return to cooking. After the food was done the two ate and
laughed over the TV. At the end of the night MinHo walked ChaeWon to the door. They said their goodbyes and MinHo closed the
door. "I wonder who she is going to see tomorrow." MinHo thought to himself. He tried to come up with a possible candidate for
ChaeWon's date but he couldn't think of anyone. "I don't even know this jerk and he's pissing me off. Wait I know how to figure
out who he is. The only way to deal with someone annoying, is to find one that's more annoying, and there is no one more
annoying than that person MinHo said as he looked at his phone still sitting on the couch. The next day Suzy was standing and
chatting with her friends after class. JiYoung and NaEun were the ones doing most of the talking since Suzy became distracted.
"Suzy ah are you listening?" asked NaEun noticing Suzy not paying attention. "Ne Neh, I just thought I heard something."
Responded Suzy looking at the brick wall entrance onto the school grounds. On the other side of the wall was MinHo, he was
drawing allot of attention with his seemingly peculiar behavior. Especially since he was dressed in a giant hoodie with
sunglasses and hanging around a high school. After picking up some small nuts that had fallen of a tree MinHo peeked around
the wall. Having tried to get Suzy's attention by calling her name didn't work and she wasn't answering her phone. MinHo
decided he would throw the nuts in her direction. After pocketing all the nuts accept for one MinHo threw the nut towards Suzy.
But this proved harder than he thought it would be, more than a few times instead of getting them close to MinHo hit some the
the students passing by. After gaining allot of attention from the other student Suzy and her friends finally noticed MinHo though
they didn't know exactly who he was. Seeing that she finally noticed him MinHo started to motion for Suzy to come to him. "Yah
you're not going over are you, that guy seems to be a ." Quickly getting irritated by all the attention and Suzy's hesitation
MinHo began yelling. "YAH I SAID COME HERE" He step from behind the wall and took off his hood. Finally recognizing him
Suzy smiled and began walking towards him. " Suzy ah what are you doing. Asked JiYoung as she grabbed Suzy hand. "It's okay
it's MinHo oppa." Suzy quickly replied while breaking free of JiYoung grasp. "Oppa?" JiYoung and NaEun looked at each other
with a puzzled look. The only MinHo they knew of was the guy Suzy referred to as Ahjussi just a day ago. "Yah I need your help."
MinHo told Suzy as she approached him. Before Suzy could answer she and MinHo's conversation was interrupted by the
schools coach. "Excuse me Ahjussi what are you doing here with that student." "Oppa I think we hurry and leave." Said Suzy
grabbing MinHo's hand and leading him off campus. "Aish thats why I barely wanted to come here." said MinHo as he turned to
take off with Suzy. "Why are you dressed like that anyway?" questioned Suzy as they stopped now a safe distance away from the
school. It's the same reason I came here to get you." Earlier MinHo hatched a seemingly perfect plan to get Suzy and find out
who's ChaeWon's date, so far it wasn't going as planned. "Oppa, you don't have to be ashamed to spend the day with me."
Smiled Suzy as she went to give MinHo a hug. But before she could get her arms around him,m MinHo put his finger on her
forehead and stopped her in her tracks. "Yah I don't know what's going on in the little trouble making head of your but I only came
to get you because I need your help. It's bad enough you got me chased off school grounds, now you're making stuff up.
Geuman Hae" "How is that my fault, Oppa's the one who came to a school dressed as a predator." "Forget it, we're wasting
time." said MinHo ending the short lived conversation. "I came to get you because I need your help figuring out who a person is."
"Wae, you can't just ask them." asked Suzy not seeing her part on all this. "Ani, she won't tell me." responded MinHo. "She, it's a
girl!Oppa you want me to help you find a girl. I don't won't to." Said Suzy folding her arms and turning her head. "It's not a girl. I'm
looking for a guy, probably someone tall, and handsome." Suzy turned back to MinHo with a disappointed look on her face.
"Oppa how could you be...." Suzy stopped herself mid sentence and lowered her head. Vaguely knowing what she was thinking
MinHo again put his finger on her forehead, and brought her face back into his view. "Yah don't give that look. Didn't tell you
earlier not make up stuff. My friend is meeting some guy for dinner tonight and she won't tell me who it is, when or where they
are meeting. So I'm gonna find out myself. "haha Oppa you sound like a jealous child." laughed Suzy after hearing MinHo's
jealous tirade. "Jealo-... Aish YAH shut it" said MinHo he hates when people challenge his maturity, which at times can be very
little. "So what do you need me to do?" questioned Suzy finally over her laughter. "First we have to get on set."started MinHo .
"Wait on set what do you mean on set." "My friend is an actress she is on the show Mr.Famous."MinHo said, but unknown to
him was the fact that Suzy's father owned the production company that was shooting the show and also was the director. Which
prompted Suzy to come up with a plan of her own. "I need you to steal her phone and go through her messages to see anything
mentioning a going to dinner tonight, don't I will keep her distracted." continued MinHo. "Okay, don't worry Oppa I'll help you."
Suzy smiled a bright smile that captured MinHo for a second. He didn't know if he was happy because she would help or happy
because he could find out who the mystery man was. Upon making it to gates of the BS production company. The two to put their
plans into action, MinHo enacting his plan to find ChaeWon's date, and Suzy's plan too figure out a way to get on the shooting
location without her father seeing her, and keeping MinHo from finding out her father was Bae Sook. As the first step of her plan
Suzy convinced MinHo it would be best to jump a fence where their were no guards or cameras. Which confused MinHo since
they could just pay for the tour and thus sneak away. "Yah how do you even know about this place ?" MinHo questioned after the
two reached the spot Suzy Spoke off and climbing the fence. "I just figured it had to be a blind spot around here somewhere,
places like this always has one." Suzy lied and she was climbing down. "huh hoodlum." MinHo muttered while helping Suzy
down. "Suzy ah..." MinHo couldn't finish his sentence before Suzy launched her arms around wrapped her arms around him.
"Oppa!" "AISH YAH, get off me." yelled MinHo trying to break her grasp around him. "Mian Hae Oppa," Suzy smiled as she
released MinHo. "It's just that was the first time you called my name instead of saying "Yah" "Aish can't even say her name
without her becoming a nuisance." MinHo thought to him self having changed his clothes as Suzy wanted she now had them
bunched by her surprise hug. "Yah while we are here don't call me Oppa, I don't want anyone getting the wrong idea. For a
second Suzy was a little upset with the comment from MinHo. But figured it would be best while they are there. Incase
somewhere sees her and overhears. After 30 minutes of aimlessly walking around, MinHo was beginning to regret listening to
Suzy about skipping the tour. Suzy on the other hand knew exactly where the trailers where she just wanted to seem like she
didn't know where anything was. After figuring they wasted enough time Suzy finally led them to the trailers. Lucky for them they
where just in time to see ChaeWon emerging from hers."There she is." MinHo said as a huge smile began to spread across
his face. Suzy looked up at her and couldn't help but think of how pretty she was. Suzy's usual confidence and overload of energy
felt as if it was being drained from her body. Shaking off the feeling she looked at MinHo who seemed to have completely
forgotten she was there. "So what do we do now, she asked breaking MinHo's gaze. You sneak in the trailer and she if you can
find her phone. I really need to find out who this guy is as soon as possible. I'm going to distract Noona." They words seemed to
effortlessly flow from MinHo. Since ChaeWon emerged from her trailer and began talking to some guy with a clipboard. MinHo
hadn't looked in Suzy's direction once. "Noona, MinHo yelled grabbing ChaeWon's attention." "Uh MinHo ah, What are you doing
here?" ChaeWon smiled surprised to see her friend here. "I was thinking about how last night you just barged into my house
and decided to annoy me for the night. So chose to come here and annoy you while you work. "She knows where he lives and
even shows up uninvited at night, they must be really close." Suzy thought to herself beginning to feel down seeing the interaction
between the two of them. "ahhh MinHo yah, what kind of lie is that just admit you came here to asked me about my date tonight."
ChaeWon responded to MinHo's weird choice of small talk "Noona it's not like that, I'm not the jealous child I am." MinHo
smirked "Huh yeah right.' Suzy thought, and ChaeWon said at the same time. "Jinjjah. MinHo quickly responded in a tone that
showed ChaeWon he was getting annoyed again. "Araseo" ChaeWon responded as the two began walking into the small
hangar the next scene the show was being shot in. Suzy stood up, and walked from around the corner she was hiding. She
quickly dashed off into ChaeWon's trailer. Upon entering the trailer she showed a different kind off enthusiasm. She began
mimicking the conversation between MinHo and ChaeWon, making ChaeWon voice showed as horrible as she could manage.
"I shouldn't even look for her phone, and just tell that jealous child I could find it." while scanning the room Suzy noticed a picture
on ChaeWon's mirror. It was a picture of her, MinHo and Jaejoong when they where in high school. Suzy noticed they where
in front of the building where the Drama club met. Looking at the picture she couldn't help but smile at MinHo bright expression.
She doesn't see this side of him much. After staring at the photo for a while Suzy goes back to looking for ChaeWon's phone.
She spots it in the seat that the seat of the chair that sat in front of the mirror. She pick up the phone and begins going thought it.
Meanwhile in the hangar ChaeWon brought MinHo to he was standing off to the side watching the scene being prepared. "We
are a person short." said one of the workers to someone sitting in a chair. From the megaphone sitting on the floor MinHo
figured it was the director. " Just grab someone, there's literally hundreds of people walking around here." Shrugged the
Director. "All they will be doing is sitting down." The assistant then turned around to look for someone to fill in as an extra.
Though MinHo was going to school to be an actor he wasn't sure he was ready for any scenes just yet no matter what it was. He
trued to turn and avoid the girls gaze but was to late. She instantly ran over to him and asked him to fill in. MinHo tried to make
excuses but the assistant wasn't listening. "All you have to do is sit in the chair." "Other than asking for coffee in the beginning of
the scene. you wont have any lines, and you won't have to much screen time." MinHo looked at ChaeWon as he was dragged to
his seat. "ChaeWon couldn't help but laugh at MinHo's silently cry for help. The director was motioning for everyone to hurry up.
MinHo sat in his seat which was close to a window he looked around and saw that ChaeWon, was standing next to her
Characters best friend who was played by Jeon HyeBin. She was the one who was to ask him about his order. He was
becoming nervous, he decided to act as naturally as he can. He hates when he sees and extra in a scene trying to hard. MinHo
crossed his legs and began looking out the window occupying his mind with thoughts of finding his Noona's mystery date. Back
in ChaeWon's trailer Suzy is still going through ChaeWon's phone when she spots the messages. They were to meet around
9pm tonight at a restaurant. That was close to her School Suzy knew exactly where the place. Having found the messages Suzy
couldn't contain here curiosity and began looking through her pics when she found a pic that really caught here eye. ChaeWon
was kissing a guy on the cheek, a guy Suzy suspected MinHo knew very well. She was going to send the picture to her phone to
show MinHo but she heard the door of the trailer opening. So she put the phone back and quickly hid in the closet. MinHo was
still in the midst of beginning the scene. Everyone found their places and was waiting for the Director's cue. He motioned for the
scene to be ready and the still picture came to life. The camera's pan from outside on a rainy day and came through the window.
MinHo's face was unexpectedly caught in the shot. But the director seemed to smile, he liked MinHo's distracted look it showed
he had something else going on. The director motioned for the Key grip focus on MinHo's side profile. They then continued to
cut to a different camera that was following HyeBin's character as she approached MinHo's table. HyeBin tapped MinHo on the
shoulder as he turned, she gave him a smile and asked was he ready to order. He gave a half laugh and shook off his thoughts
of ChaeWon and Replied yes just a Coffee please. With that MinHo's part was over and he just patiently waited until the scene
was over. The person who entered ChaeWon's trailer was had just closed the door and left. Suzy emerged from her hiding spot
and looked out the window to make sure she was in the clear she then hurriedly left towards the hangar where MinHo was. After
that the scene was over MinHo wanted to leave the hangar soon as possible. He needed to get rid off the butterflies still reeking
havoc on his stomach. While walked he was suddenly stopped by a person grabbing his shoulder. He turned to see who it was,
it was the director. "Excuse me may I ask your name." the director questioned MinHo with a lively smile the seemed very familiar
to him. " Yeh, It's Lee MinHo." MinHo nervously replied he was wondering how bad he did that the director had to come scold
him for it. "I really enjoyed your what you did today, It really caught my eye. Unlike most extra's you brought your character to life.
You weren't just some guy sitting at a table. You seemed to be a main character in a drama with something heavy on his mind.
That was really impressive." MinHo was truly surprised by all the praise he was receiving from the director. "After this show is
wrapped up I would like you to be in my next one. I think you would be perfect as the main character. Of course you would have to
audition first, but I'm sure you would get the role." The director continued. "That sound great but I don't have much experience,
today was my first time ever. I'm actually still going to school for acting classes." replied MinHo "Thats fine the won't be starting
until a couple of months during then you can work with our on set acting coaches. What do think? Before MinHo could answer
he spotted Suzy out the corner of walking towards him. "Oh no this isn't good." he thought she has a knack for messing things
up. Suzy was steady walking in MinHo's direction. Barely noticing the guy he was talking to. As she got closer she remembered
MinHo told her not to call him Oppa so she addressed him with something she thought was a little more appropriate. "Hey
Jealous Child she blurted out grabbing MinHo's attention and the guy speaking to him who slowly turned to look at her and
revealed himself to be her father.
