Chapter 9

The Choice

After this soft but deep kiss both became awkward. No one dare to look at each other. 

"So... hmmm.." Myungsoo said.

"Huh...? Yeah.." Jiyeon didn't know what to say either

"So talk me about your life.. how have you been since these two years.. etc.." Myungsoo finally have broke the silence

"Well you know, when you are a rookie idol it's tough.. I mean I know how you curently feel, like you have been trained for months/years to debut but can't get public interest and so the work in the industry become even more tough..   But with boop beep boop beep everything changed after. So don't give up it will come one day!" Jiyeon replied with a cute smile on her face 

"Well I'm sure you are right.. I want to know it too, public love and support.." Myungsoo shyly replied 

"Beside this, i'm pretty surprised you have became an idol.. throw back to those old days you were a smart student with a brilliant career.. why have you chosen this  path?" Jiyeon asked

"Hmm... well.. it's too long and not interesting .. a boring story let's just say I've got the chance to cross by a representative of my curent company and etc" Myungsoo replied while looking embarrassed of something so Jiyeon looked at him confusingly

"Hmm.. ok.. if you say so.. I thought it would be because of me but well..!" Jiyeon said while smirking 

"Tsh! Who are you taking me for!" Myungsoo tried to look convincing but he knew inside that Jiyeon was a part of his idol path reason

"Tsh! Who kissed me earlier telling me I was his youth love?! ert !" Jiyeon sarcastically replied 

"What??!! Yah!! When did I ever done that!?" Myungsoo got embarrassed and stood up from the chair that he was sitting and walked toward the exit door following immediately by Jiyeon who enjoyed to . 

"Yah ! Kim Myungsoo!" Jiyeon pulled his hand to stop him

"Jiyeonie wants ice cream" she did an ayego to which Myungsoo couldn't help but to smile wildly

"You haven't change Park Jiyeon hahaha" he added

Both ended their night meeting at an ice cream shop near the school with disguise on to not get recognized by people. 

"I've seen you've got some numbers today at the event" Jiyeon started while taking a bite of her ice cream.

"Well.. They are kind and nice but you know.. I'm not allowed to date" Myungsoo replied

"Tsh it's always like this but you will see, you will end up by forgetting that rule! Beside, no one follow that rule nowadays. So give a try. I know they are beautiful" Jiyeon said. Myungsoo was upset as Jiyeon was acting as they didn't kissed earlier. 

"Maybe." He simply replied

"Dating can also give you some benefits you know.. mostly when you are a rookie" she continued which stopped Myungsoo to continue to eat. He suddenly thought back at what the Rainbow's girl told him about Jiyeon.

"Like what benefits ?" He asked coldly. Jiyeon suddenly felt like she should not have said that .

"Well if you date a senior group member they can somehow help you.." She then wanted to shut but it was too late anyway.

"So, are you dating someone?" Myungsoo finally asked but Jiyeon didn't respond she got frozen and just looked at him

"Who is he?" He added. 

"Seungho oppa" she bitted her lips. Myungsoo didn't said anything and smiled bitterly.

"Congrats. Hope you guys are happy. I'm sorry for earlier I should not have kissed you." He said. He then stood up even though he didn't finished his ice cream.

"I have to go.. my manager will get angry at me else.. it was good to meet you like before. Hope to see you soon!" He said while smiling. 

"Huh??... already?.. ok.. bye" she replied but he was already walking out. 

 

Months have passed. Both didn't contacted each other since that night. Jiyeon knew Myungsoo was disappointed at the new Jiyeon idol side which she couldn't help but to get sad. Myungsoo did not wanted to hear anything about Jiyeon because after that night, stories about her hanging easily with senior group member started to rose up, as more as Infinite group was getting more popular around public and entertainment industry.

Jiyeon broke up with Seungho some days after the end of their drama. She told him that she could not feel real love feelings and that they should remain friends at which he accepted. But thanks to him she got the opportunity to meet some popular director but also important people in the industry.

It's true that Jiyeon uses men to get some new contact and get new opportunity. In this jungle if you don't take care of you career you will flop. She wanted to make it honestly at first when she first debuted but when she faced the crual reality of the kpop world she decided to attack. She knew that what she was doing is not good and she was ashamed. But she have done too much to become an idol that she can't lose it all. Her parents have sacrificed so much and she have been through so many hard times that surviving in this jungle was her first goal. And so everything started from that. 

Jiyeon couldn't stop but to check about Infinite and Myungsoo activities. But Myungsoo was forgetting Jiyeon slowly with his new idol friends and flirts. He would sneak out of his dorm and go partying with some of s and idol friends. He would get all the girls he wanted making s so envious. At every party he and s were playing at the target game, which consisted of giving Myungsoo a target and he would have to end with her before the end of the party else he lost and had to pay them food. Myungsoo didn't mind, he actually liked this game, what man would not like to have girls for their own pleasure. You know it right? Men needs. 

One night s get him a new target Myungsoo didn't mind and went after her.

"Hey my name is Kim Myungsoo, can I get yours ? " He smiled with this grin of him that made every girls fall for him.

"Wouah Myungsoo it's been a long time how are you???" The girl replied really happy to see him

"Huh???" He was surprised and took a time to think about who it was 

"It's me Jina! We were both classmate!" She pounted sadly

"Oh right!!! Wouah it's been so long! So you finally debuted as I can meet you here at Siwon hyung place" Myungsoo was taken back. But s behind Jina were mocking him because he was taking more time than usual which kinda hurt his man pride.

"You've got prettier that is why" He added to follow his original plan 

"Thanks you you too oppa!" She smiled

"Do you want to drink something? We can go somewhere more calm to talk privatly if you want" Myungsoo started

"Thanks you but i'm not staying long here, I have schedule tomorrow." she said

"Hey come on it's been so long we can have some fun !" He began to be insistent to which she got annoyed

" Oppa, I can't reconized the Myungsoo i used to know and love. I was really in fond of you but you rejected me for Jiyeonie. Now that she rejected you, you are playing around. I didn't know you would fall so down. I didn't know you would gave up just like this after even becoming an idol for her. It's a shame. Get yourself back oppa... it's not great to meet you like this..." Jina said with a sincere look, Myungsoo got flustrated. Hearing about Jiyeon suddenly made him feeling uneasy.        

"I hope we will meet again and that you will have changed. Get yourself back oppa. Bye" She said and left. s behind were all laughing at him in sign of their victory.

"Wouahh prince Myungsoo got rejected!!!!" They were shouting. Irritated, Myungsoo left to the balcony to have some fresh air but Jiyeon went back to his mind again.

 

 

It was finally the end of year concerts, both T-ara and Infinite were invited to perform along with many more groups. Jiyeon was nervous but also excited by the thought of meeting him after so long.T-ara were performing "I go crazy because of you" and a special stage with Beast on "Beautiful". Every groups have to go through reharsal before the real show and so Myungsoo and Jiyeon were fated to meet again. 

"Yah long time no see!" Junhyung came and went high fiving the six T-ara members as Eunjung were busy with her drama.

"What a shock omg!" Soyeon said while holding her chest 

"Yahh paboo what are you doing !" Doonjoon then faked to pick a fight with Junhyung 

"Sorry sorry sorry !!" Said Junhyung and everyone started to laugh 

"Let's pair up! I'm chosing Jiyeonie!" Junhyung said 

"ASSAA!!!" Jiyeon clapped and smiled wildly. 

The two group went reharsing but the group before them was Infinite. So Jiyeon and Myungsoo crossed by. Their eyes met each other, Jiyeon smiled at him but at her surprised Myungsoo looked away and continued his walk with him member. 

"What's wrong with him?" She mumbled

"Huh??" Hyomin asked

"Hmm? Nothing." She replied. And they went to perform their reharsing. While their performance Myungsoo was watching and did not miss to notice Junhyung and Jiyeon closeness as both were smiling and laughing while dancing together. He could not help but to feel jealous. 

Myungsoo and Jiyeon bumped on each other again on their way to go to the restroom. But Myungsoo did as he haven't noticed her.

"Yah Kim Myungsoo !" She yelled. But he continued his way so she pulled his hand to stop him. He rolled his eyes and looked at her.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you acting like you are mad at me ?" She asked.

"Don't touch me you are so disgusting !" He pulled out his hand from her. Jiyeon eyes started to get red. Myungsoo suddenly felt sorry and upset of himself.

"Ah so you heard it all." She smirked while looking away

"Who hadn't?" He added. She became silent.

"This time its Junhyung-shi? Which benefit will you gain this time??" He asked. She then glared at him and laughed sarcastically.

"So you really love me all this time." She said. Myungsoo became speechless

"What the hell are you talking about ?!" He was surprised 

"Do you think I was dumb all this time ? Do you think I haven't seen you at the stadium that day when you wanted to see me for my contests win? Do you think I didn't know why you became an idol? Why you kissed me the last time ?!" She replied harshly with tears forming in her eyes. He was dumbfounded  

"Anyway you don't even worth my tears." She quickly wiped her tears and started to walk away.

"And so what if I loved you? Everything I did or I do is not enough for you. Even now. You prefer to sell your body instead of loving a men like me who gave up everything just because of his delusional first love ! How dumb i was !" He said,Jiyeon turned around and tears were back again 

"What did you just said? Huh?" She bitterly said while glaring coldly at him.

Chapter 20: Chapter 20: thanks authornim . But It's true that jiyeon once suffered from stress or depression. I teared up when I saw her interview on mnet special. :'( she said like she lost her personality or herself .She think that she is Jiyeon of T ara, so she need to act that kind of jiyeon :-(. So if anyone felt like that you have to seek for help. it's not because you talk to psychiatrist you are crazy, it's wrong. because we also need a healthy mind to survive.
