Chapter One
11 years later - 2012
"What is it at this time, Catrin?" Penelope sleepily answered her phone. "Didn't you know what time is it?"
"Of course I know! It's already 11am in the morning and you're still sleeping!" Catrin hissed over the phone as she was still in her bed.
"So then, what's the commotion for your 'can't' wait call?" Penelope asked as she get up from bed, hugging her pillow, yawning. Her bestfriend used to call her everyday and as usual, they only talked nonstop with what so ever things.
"Prettyhae, I had a strange dream!" Catrin said, using the nick she used to call her bestfriend. Hae came from the name of a popular K-pop idol and she just added the word 'pretty'. Then Penelope calls her prettywon and the same thing... the word 'won' came as well from a kpop idol. These kpop idols are their crushes.
"Dream? You just called me to talk about your strange dream?" Penelope complained, irritated.
"Penelope!"
"Okay, okay, go ahead...." Penelope sighed.
"I had dream of Lowell. And guess what?" Catrin started again.
"Just continue," Penelope told.
Catrin sighed. "In my dreams, we get married. But it was just a contract marriage." She continued.
"Contract marriage?" Penelope asked. "Korean drama?" she mocked.
"Sheeeet! I'm serious!" Catrin blurted out. "This is the second time that I dream of marriage with Lowell. The last one was 11years ago and it was an arranged marriage by our parents. But this time, it was a contract marriage that we both agreed."
Now, Penelope finally awakened her senses. "And you call it strange? Weird?" she asked.
"Isn't Pen?" Catrin pouted.
Penelope laughed. "I don't know what to say, really..." she uttered as she finally move out from her bed and yawned.
"You know me, Pen...I don't really believe that dream could really happen," Catrin mumbled in the other line. "But...it's weird that, when I woke up...it feels like I'm getting married in soonest time," she added.
Penelope burst out laughter after hearing her friend's last statement. "And whom you're going to marry with Ms.NBSB?" she teased.
"Don't laugh at me! Damn it!" Catrin snorted out. NBSB, NBSB! Why did she have to remind me that I am a certified NBSB or NO BOYFRIEND SINCE BIRTH?
"Why of all people, you dreamed of Lowell again? You don't even see him for almost 11years." Penelope uttered, cleared her throat.
"Exactly!" Catrin agreed. "...the last time I saw him was when we graduated highschool." She added the sighed.
"Anyway," Penelope spoke again. "Who knows, maybe one day you'll meet him again and with that meeting... everything will start to change."
"Change?" Catrin abruptly asked.
"We don't know what will gonna happen next, bestfriend..." Penelope said. "...what if he's the man you been waiting all along...the man you had once dream of..."
"Do you hear what you're saying? It's 'what if' meaning not sure..." Catrin sarcastically said and took a deep breath.
"Well, maybe, I will really believe in destiny and love, if I will witness the two of you ended together." Penelope said without realizing her words.
"What?!" Catrin hissed. "Are you serious? It's like you've given me a great challenge of my life!"
Penelope laughed.
"You're crazy!" Catrin told at the other line.
"Catrin, if that happens...you know...I'll be one of the happiest person. And if ever, your story will be like the Korean drama we used to watch! A love story that took 11 years in a run before you two ended together." Penelope stated as she now entered the bathroom and laughed.
Catrin sighed in disbelief to what her bestfriend saying.
