My breath was caught in mid air as I saw that ethereal vision walks in from the entrance of Down & Dirty. The club that is owned by a friend of mine located under the basement of a hotel here in Gangnam.
The girl is very pretty---beautiful even and hot. Her long straight jet black hair is tied up in high ponytail, wearing a white crop top which appeared like a corset, black skinny jeans which hung low on her hip and high heeled sandals, with the wild lights dancing on her fairly white skin there is no doubt that she was mouthwateringly sexy. I shifted on my seat when I felt my body reacting.
"Here's your drink, bro." Seungyoon, my friend, handed me a bottle of beer.
"Thanks, dude." I gulped from the bottle.
"So, how long are you gonna stay here in Korea?" he asks while serving drinks to the other customers.
"A month or two maybe."
"A what? Yah! You've been working non-stop for the past 8 years in Thailand and you filed for a month vacation only?"
"You know what happen back then, I needed some place that she and I haven't been to so I can move on. Besides I'm handling most of our businesses there so I'm really busy."
Kang Seungyoon looked at me with a serious look in his face. "And have you... moved on?"
I only smile as an answer then shrugged my shoulders before drinking the beer and looked around the bar, my eyes landed on the same woman that I was staring at awhile ago. I felt my body stiffen when I saw a guy wrapped his arm around the woman's petite waist and guided her to the dance floor. I just found myself gripping the beer bottle tightly and grinding my teeth while watching them dance. I don't why but I suddenly had an urge to beat the shit out of that bastard she's with.
I swallowed hard as I watched the woman dancing in the middle of the dance floor. She was a sight to behold. I don't know how long I've been staring at her when suddenly Seungyoon spoke startling me a little.
"She's beautiful, isn't she?"
"Yes." I answered truthfully then faced him while playing the beer bottle in my hand. "Does she come here often?" I ask out in curiosity. He nodded. "Do you know her?"
"Don't you recognize her?" He answered me with another question.
With furrowed eyebrows, I turn to looked back at the girl who is now walking back to her table still with the same guy whom she danced with, a group of guys and girls sat with them and she was happily chatting with them. I frown when I notice that her face looks kinda familiar but I just can't remember where I saw her and when.
"Should I know her?"
"She's Jennie Kim."
I gave Seungyoon an I-don't-believe-you look before turning back again to look at the girl, looking for some similarities to confirm what he just said. There is no way that this woman and Jennie are the same. They are very different.
Jennie was the simple, silent-type and plain looking girl I met in senior high.
Jennie was the girl you messed up with in high school, my mind reminded me.
The girl suddenly looked at my direction and we had an eye contact, those feline eyes...she was indeed Jennie.

JENNIE'S POV

I felt someone is watching my every move the moment I entered Down & Dirty but I ignored it as I was already used to being stared at by men. It had been like that for many years. Honestly speaking, I was used to be ignored back in my senior high school days since I was a school nerd back then but after meeting this 'certain' person who I loved with all that I have broke my heart, I changed, I had a make over and reinvented myself.
Ever since then guys and girls have been around me. Yes, I dated most of them but I never gave my heart to anyone again. I had learned my lessons--the hard way. I fell inlove once, deep and gave my everything to that person but I got played in return. After that, I went somewhere far, far away from here, to mend my broken heart. I cried and cried for days until I felt numb and there's no more tears left that would flow out from my eyes.
One day, when I woke up, I made a promise to myself that no one will hurt me ever again and that's when I decided to change and learned how to walk and dressed up like a sophisticated lady I am now...and also I learned how to play their games.
I'm not the plain-looking and stupid Jennie that everybody knew. That person who broke my heart brought the best and worst out of me. Sweet talks, pick up lines, etc. doesn't work with me anymore. The words faithfulness, commitment, loyalty and trust, I'm not into those too either.
Most girls may glare and raise an eyebrow at me all they want but I don't care, this is my life and I'll do whatever I wants to do with it.
My thoughts got cut off by my friend Song Kang when he stops dancing and whispered to my ear.
"Let's go back to our table." he says.
"Okay." I agreed and let him guide me back to our table.
Not long after we had sat down Song Kang oppa's friends join in our table. We had been chatting and laughing for awhile now until the topic started to bore me, they're just competing with each other to get my attention while Song Kang oppa is already making out with a girl beside me. I looked around and my eyes landed on the corner of the club, there is this one woman sitting alone while drinking beer infront of the bar counter staring right at me. She looks hot and somewhat.... familiar? I stared at her more trying to figure out where I had seen her then I recognizes her. So she's back. Lalisa Manoban, the devil who broke my heart.
