Chapter 4
Love, Lust, Lies : A diary of a broken wifeAfter our camping trip CL and I needed to go to Singapore for a month for photoshoots and fashion shows. We were so busy that I can't even remember what day it was already, photoshoots in the morning fashion shows in the afternoon, dinner with fashion designers, after parties until dawn. The only free time we got was when we were in the car going to wherever our next destination was, or when we are about to sleep. I was happy though, all my goals are pushing through. It has always been my dream to be a fashion magazine editor, to own a publishing house, I want to be like Anna Wintour of Vogue. Being a model has opened doors for me, leading me to the right track where I want to be, I'm young and I'm earning money plus I get to have clothes for free!
My friends often tease me that the only thing lacking in my life is a boyfriend. I just laugh at their comments, like I really need one to complete myself. Yeah, sometimes I think about what it's like to have one. Yes, I have lots of guy friends but I haven't had a boyfriend yet. My sister, Bom, told me once that guys feel intimidated with me since I'm beautiful and I'm intelligent at the same time, well it's their lost not mine. Speaking of friends, I started to become close with Daesung and Yongbae after our camping trip. We exchanged numbers and we've been texting almost everyday talking about nonsense and random stuff. Felt disappointed that Jiyong didn't ask for my number though, well he was busy that night. Aishh... I still can't let go of that thought.
*BEEP* Text Message
Unknown Number: Hope you had your dinner already.
Me: Yongbae? Is this a new number?
Unknown Number: Hmmm... All you think about is Yongbae?
Me: Huh? Seungri-ah is this you? CL is just on the next bed I can ask if this is you!
Unknown Number: I'm hurt.
Me: Huh? Who is this? Yongbae-ah! If this is you playing a trick on me I'll kick your when I get back!!!
*ring ring*
"Yoboseo?" I answered my mobile phone. I don't know why but I was so nervous when I did and my heart was beating so fast.
"So, all you think about is Yongbae huh?" a familiar voice said on the other line.
My heart skipped a beat. This can't be true... I must be dreaming...
"Jiyong?" I answered surprised.
"Hey baby girl" he said making my heart melt. What? What am I talking about I just met this guy for a few times and yet my heart is acting all crazy and just by hearing his voice.
"Hmm... I'm in Singapore you know you'll get international charges." I said sounding worried. Well I am.
"It's ok, I just wanted to hear your voice." he said. "I have thought about your gift for me and I know what I want already."
He hasn't given up on my birthday present, he kept bugging me about it the last time that I told him to think about what he really really wanted and then I'll get it for him.
"Really? What?" I giggled at the thought of him acting like a child again.
"You'll see. Sweet dreams baby girl." he said hanging up.
I stared at my phone for a long time smiling as if he would be able to see me do it.
Indeed I had sweet dreams that night. After that call I can't stop thinking about him again, making me all confused on why I'm feeling this way. He continued to text me on the next days making me more confused if he was just being friendly or there's something there like how I'm feeling. All the thinking was about to make me go crazy that I decided to confide on Byul Unnie.
*ring ring*
"Yoboseo? Dara?" Byul Unnie answered.
"Neh. Unnie where are you? Are you busy?" I asked.
"You called because of Jiyong huh?" she said saving me from beating around the bush.
"How'd you know?" I asked wondering how on earth she knows what I was going to talk about.
"Well that kid has been bugging Teddy Oppa and Dong-Wook about you ever since our camping trip. You know he asks even Yongbae and Daesung about you." Byul Unnie explained.
"Sincha?" I asked not believing what I just heard.
"Yup. Hey, I know you're not used to this since you haven't had a boyfriend yet. But Jiyong's a good boy, just go with the flow first. Don't fall too hard
