Two Years Later
Letting out a sigh, I take a seat in front of my vanity and stare at my reflection. My hair is wrapped up in a towel, waiting for me to blow-dry it. My face is clean of any make-up and I'm about to start my skin-care routine before I put any other product on my face.
My dress is waiting for me on a hanger, my mask sitting on my vanity in front of me.
I've accomplished a lot in the past two years. I've gotten to know my employees, I've had the chance to learn all about everything that goes on within the company, I've had the chance to work with all of our artists, I've become a leader to Hope Entertainment rather than the boss of the company. My employees like me, respect me and know me for who I really am and what I aspire to become while taking them and the company with me.
I was supposed to take on the position of CEO when I turned 23, but my father and I discussed my progress and decided that it would be better if we postponed it until I felt I was ready. Now barely a month away from my 24th birthday, I'm about to be promoted. We also discussed it was better not to promote me on my birthday and keep the two days separate from one another.
I'm just hours away from my promotion to CEO and to say that I'm nervous.. well, that would be an understatement. I'm scared as hell. I'm scared to mess up and I'm scared to ruin everything my father has built over the past 19 years.
And even though I've accomplished so much during these past two years, I've also felt empty. There's always something missing and I haven't been able to figure out what it was and still have no idea what I'm missing.
Hoseok seemed to think that what I was missing was love. Someone to share every experience with, someone to share every detail with. Someone I could come home to and snuggle up with on the couch while we talked about our days and laughed at dumb jokes. Someone who could put a smile on my face no matter what was going on in my life.
But it wasn't what I was missing, at least I still don't think that's what it is.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have felt that empty when I was dating Yoongi.
About six months after I returned to Seoul and after many meetings with the company Yoongi works for, I finally accepted his offer to go on a date with him. He took me to the most darling little restaurant and entertained me the entire time. He knew exactly what he was doing during the date. He made me laugh, we got to know each other and there seemed to be something between us. After a couple of more dates we became exclusive when he asked me to be his girlfriend, I accepted but under the single condition that we kept it a secret to the public.
Being the daughter of the CEO of the biggest entertainment company in the entirety of South Korea made it hard for me to be open and honest about a couple of things concerning my personal life, which is why I preferred to keep my relationship status private. For all they knew, I was single. Not a single person outside my personal circle knew about anything that I wanted to keep private.
