Chapter 21: No Turning Back Now
*the radio show that taemin was guesting in was almost over ... but still, yung do and the DJ were persistent on making taemin reveal who his girlfriend is ...
yung do: come on, taemin! ... at least give us more hints! ... since you've just confessed about having a girlfriend, the same questions will be thrown at you again and again ... dont you think it's best to just get it over with here and now?
taemin: o-oh ... s-sunbae ... im really sorry ... but i cant ... i was ordered not to ... s-so ... (uneasy)
DJ: ordered by who? ... your manager (looks toward SHINee's manager who was talking with someone on the phone) ... (whispers) well he's not listening right now ... (giggles)
taemin: (fake laugh) ... ah ... i-i really cant ... im sorry ...
*then some fans outside the recording area started saying "who is she?" repeatedly ...
taemin: (starts getting nervous) ... u-uh ... (holds his index finger up to his lips)
yung do: see? ... the fans are getting restless ... just tell us, taemin (whining)
*in JoaHam ... sherina was already being worked on by the lady employees for hair and make-up ... of course, that was because of no other than key ... so while jonghyun, onew and minho continued to discuss among themselves about taemin's outburst, key thought it was the chance to have a conversation with sherina ...
key: (hands folded - leaning on the wall) so .... sherina ... can i ask what you see in taemin?
sherina: (surprised at the sudden question)!! ... e-eh?
key: (giggles) sorry if that was sudden ... i DID tell our maknae that we would be the ones to "approve" of his girlfriend ... so ...
sherina: o-oh ... uhm ... o-ok, oppa ...
SHERINA'S INNER MONOLOGUE
sherina: would this be alright? ... i hope i dont say something careless ... or else im DEAD for sure! (bites her lower lip) ...taemin said to just stick to the story ... STICK TO THE STORY!! ... stay focused sherina ... FOCUSED!!!
END OF MONOLOGUE
key: (shifts his weight to his other leg) ... so? ... what do you see in him then? ... taemin's not really the person who makes good first impressions (laughs) ...
sherina: uh ... u-uhm ... well ... our first meeting wasn't exactly what you would call romantic ... plus! im a fan, so first impressions dont really count anymore ...
key: (nodding while staring at her)
KEY'S INNER MONOLOGUE
key: ohhhh ... so she's still going ahead with their fake love story ... did taemin tell her to do that before they left? ... he actually thought about that?! ... uwaaaaaa ... unbelievable ... well done for him, i guess ...
END OF MONOLOGUE
key: (clears throat) s-so how DID you start liking him then?
sherina: well ... (looks up - thinks) ... if you say "liking" ... i've liked him ever since i found SHINee ... (smiles to herself) ... to be honest, oppa ... YOU were the very first one that caught my eye ...
key: really?! (face lights up)
sherina: (nods) mmhmm! ... that was because you were really handsome ... (giggles) ...
key: oh, stop!(whips his hand toward her - laughs)
sherina: (laughs along) anyway, i like EVERYONE in SHINee ...
key: ooooo! ... so you're saying you LIKE us ALL?! ... im not sure where you're going with this(confused) ... you sound like a player ...
sherina: (laughs at his silliness) n-no, oppa ... i dont mean it like that!! ...
key: (laughs) i was just kidding ... just kidding! ... so, then ... why taemin? ... how did you know that you loved taemin?
sherina: uh ... i'm not really sure myself ... b-but as i continued watching you from afar, my eyes just always get diverted to him ... i always HAD to see where he is in the performance, or wait for him to come up on stage before screaming my heart out ... i-it's just so weird ...
key: (smiles gently) that's very nice ... but now ... do you think you still love him as a fan?
sherina: my love for him as a fan will never fade, oppa ... my love for ALL of you as a fan never will ...
key: well, since you're his girlfriend now, you must take good care of our maknae, ok? ... so no more of that "fan love" when you're around him ... what he needs is true love ... its what you both need if you're to go on with this thing that you have ...
sherina: o-oh (guilty) ... i-i know ... i know that ... and i do! ... i do love taemin ... i always will ... i believe in that ... (smiles a bit to herself) ... that's why i dont want him getting in trouble because of me ... s-so it's fine if he doesn't look at me ... as long as i get to look at him as much as i want ...
