AFTER BREAKING UP WITH RONA, JOO SEOKHOON MAKES SURE TO LOOK AFTER HER EVEN JUST FROM AFAR.

-------------------------------------------------

'Rona yah... Did you try this yet?
I got this with the money I saved and it's very effective.

Look, with one swatch my skin looks flawless.'

Jenny smiles as she flaunts the newly released foundation that was all the hype currently in the world of Korean beauty trends.

Rona chuckles and smiles at her best friend as she sips on her juice.

' It's very pretty but you shouldn't spend your money too much Jenny yah. Didn't you just buy the newly released foundation by MAC last week?

Are you even using it?'

Jenny chuckles as she rolls her eyes teasingly and hands Rona the new foundation that she held on her hands.

' Aigoo!!! Stop nagging me and just take this. I bought this for you since I thought it matched your skintone.

Our Rona.... Should look beautiful and go on blind dates soon.

Who knows you might meet the right man for you right?'

Before Rona could even reject Jenny's idea. A familiar voice interjects in the conversation and swiftly sits across the 2 females.

' Why does Rona need to find another man?

What's more important right now is that she continues her fight with Ha Eunbyeol and regain her real status as the best future representative primadonna of South Korea.... Maybe even the whole of Asia. '

Jenny scoffs and scowls at the new comer with obvious annoyance plastered on her face.

' Ha!!! Are you my stalker or something? How do you even know where we're always at?

I might have to consider filing for a restraining order against you soon.... Lee Minhyuk!!!'

Chuckling and smirking at the sassy remark. Minhyuk replies with a sarcastic come back.

' Who told you I'm following you?

It's just pure coincidence but if I were to even stalk you.

Dream on!!! Who knows I might be following Rona instead. '

Rona's eyes literally widens as she looks up at the male. Pointing at herself, she tilts her head and asks in her hushed voice.

' Me...? '

With that, Lee Minhyuk laughs and shakes his head. Implying that it was simply a joke for Jenny to shut up and not misunderstand him.

Suddenly remembering something, Minhyuk silently rummages his backpack and takes out a little red silk pouch.

Unraveling the knot, he takes out what looks to be a bunch of expensive herbal pills.

'Oh yeah!!! I got this from my grandmother. They are precious and expensive herbal vitamins.

I thought I should give some to you girls especially Rona.'

Forcing Rona to accept the pills. Minhyuk smiles as he explains.

'You've been extremely stressed have you? These are the perfect stuff for you.

Come....here's some water. Drink it up now.'

Jenny could literally sense something weird as she and Rona exchange confused glances and turn their heads to the almost eager and desperate male.

Crossing her arms in front of her chest, Jenny smirks as she starts her interrogation.

' What's up with you really?

Don't you dare lie to me and Rona. You've been so giddy lately and you keep appearing like some sort of guardian angel to Rona.

Is it just me or something's off? '

Minhyuk literally had to gulp down the bubbling nervousness as he collected himself internally and explained while trying to not be too obvious.

' Eiiii.... What are you talking about again!!??

Jenny yah, don't you remember? I also treat you well these days don't I? I gave you the luxury bag then the dress... Oh and even the shoe---.'

Minhyuk wasn't yet again given the chance to finish his statement as Yoo Jenny waves her hand in front of the male and scolds him to stop nagging.

' Oh!!! Fine... I get it, I get it

Now shut up and let me concentrate on this. Better yet... Make yourself useful and go to the counter go fetch mine and Rona's coffee orders.'

Huffing a exhausted sigh, Minhyuk plasters on a bright smile and replies as he stands from his chair.

' Okay!!! But let me go to the comfort room first.

Oh and.... '

Shifting his gaze to Rona, Minhyuk points to the pills on the table and reminds her probably for the 6th time since he handed it to her.

'Better drink that up now Rona yah!!!... Wouldn't want you to forget about it.'

And off goes Lee Minhyuk towards the male's bathroom. Rona could only shake her head at the male's odd actions. As they had slowly become friends, Rona had found a almost a goofy and clumsy charm on Minhyuk.

He was more of a submissive type in the friend's circle but was pretty caring and approachable.

Smiling, Rona picks up the herbal pills and swallows them down with the cup of lukewarm water.

What she doesn't notice though is that from across the study café.

Lee Minhyuk stood behind a pillar and hid from the 2 females while holding up his phone and turns out he was actually recording everything that unfolded.....particularly Rona.

Satisfied at the result. Lee Minhyuk stops the recording and instead angled his phone to snap perfect candid shots of the female and with that, the male leans on the pillar and opens up his chat app.

TO: JOO SEOKHOON

'I finished the task you gave me. I also attached a video clip of Rona drinking the pills you gave me as proof.

Rona went to practice today, I blocked out Ha Eunbyeol and Ahn Eunwoo' s attempt to disrupt her.

She smiled 5 times since coming to the study café with Jenny. Oh!!! And she also chose a Java Chip Frappe for her drinks today.

And on the vitamins you gave me last week. I managed to hand it to her and just like what you said.... I made up an excuse that my mom had bought too much.'

P.S- Here are some of the candid pictures I secretly took of her. Don't ask me anymore since it's obvious in the pictures that she's happy and smiling.
