Because of that I've been dragged into this.

Earlier when we met, I really want to hug and kiss her but I can't since Goeun is staring at me with her death glare.

"It's for Jihyo.." Gary said.

My friends are all here. Except Dongwook and Eunhye.
They're probably with the audience.

"Tsk. You better do good later or else." I threatened them.

"Yah! Why are you showing your scary face!" Jaesuk whined.

I just ignored it and just lie down in a sofa here in my room.

Jihyo-a.. please don't be mad at me.

Song Jihyo's POV:

I am now wearing the dress and currently waiting for the cue.

Since we were the last couple, I chose to stay in my dressing room until we are called.

What should I do?? I'm nervous. 
I don't know how I should face him.
Should I talk to him?
Tell him that I'm his girlfriend? 
Aish.. I need time to think..

But the event doesn't want me to as I am called to prepare at the backstage.

So there I was.. walking with heavy footsteps. I have Goeun beside me but still my heart doesn't let me figure out if this is excitement or I'm just nervous.

After a few walks, I can see his back.
I know it's him. 
From the chestnut brown hair, the way he stands and that broad back that I love to hug.



I saw him turn to us slowly.. just like the first time. 
Then he smiled.. 
That smile.. Oh how I miss it.
I wish he's smiling for me..

I got to admit.. he really looks so handsome.
All he just did is raise his hairbangs..
Wow. I can't believe someone can actually look good if you raise his bangs..

When we are near them..

"Okay, Jihyo-a.. since he DOESN'T know where he'll walk and stuff, you have to teach him everything you have practiced." Goeun said and left.

"But.." i kinda' hesitated.

Please don't leave us here..

"Ehem.." I looked at him..

"Song Jihyo right?" He continued.

"Ne.." I answered right away. Maybe because I'm so nervous.

"Let me ask you, why did you join this contest?"

"Ah it's because of yo-- , ah it's because of my boyfriend.." phew.

"Ah I see.. you must really love him then for you to join at such contest as this."

"Ne.. i love him so much.." I looked at him, in his eyes.. I don't know where I found the courage but I just did.
I guess I just really love this man in front of me.

"Ehem.. ah.. so, what should I do?" 
He said awkwardly. 
Aish. Jihyo-a pabo! He must have been uncomfortable!

So I explained to him what we practiced.

Before our section is called, be leaned in and whispered..

"You are very beautiful.." he looks at me and then wink.

He grabbed my hand and put it in his arms. As he guide me in walking the stage.. 
I'm really blank right now. What just happened??

"Smile Jihyo-ssi.." then he smiled at me..

That's when I realized that I'm already on stage.. so I smiled following his advice.

But when we are walking the audience just stayed silent..

Some are asking, 
'I thought they broke up?'
'Didn't she hurt him??'
'Why is she still with him??'
'That !'
'Get out of the stage !'

I stopped. I don't know what to do anymore. 
I know. I shouldn't be here.
I shouldn't be with him and hurt him more.
I knew it..

But then I felt something on my cheeks.
I just looked at him, shocked.
He just smiled and reassured me that it's gonna be fine and he's here with me.
Wait.. he just kissed me.
What in the world is going on?
People start cheering when we start walking..

After the walk..
I think we did a pretty good job since many are cheering for us or just for him.

Even though I just taught it to him earlier, he does everything like what he has done in our practice.

After that we are back again in the backstage.

"You really look great out there.." He praised.
And I just looked at him, still didn't know what to say when he kissed my cheeks earlier.

"See you later again.." he smiled and left.

I was dragged in my dressing room after.

"What just happened Goeun-a?"

She didn't answer me.

"All I know is in the talent portion, you're gonna perform with him."
