Little Rebel Girl

In every good girl there is a little rebel soul hiding behind. But unlike any other good girl, Park Kyoni, twenty years old, is a little rebel girl whose side hustle is taking photos of celebrities and uploading it on her dump social media account. With thousand of followers, she started gaining a small fandom who requests and give her tips on where who is who. Indeed, a little rebel girl for someone her age and a good opportunity to spend her summer after her last class meeting.

A notification sound from Kyoni's laptop was the cue for her to stop reviewing her notes for tomorrow's law class recitations. Swiftly, she pressed alt+tab and checks her account. A private message from a fan account messaged her a place where Lee Do Hyun, a dashing star is checked in.

"Sunny Side Hills?!" She exclaimed in disbelief. "I cannot go there!" Kyoni uttered after realizing that the hotel where her ultimate celebrity crush is currently taking a sleep is a member's only hotel.

Kyoni took a deep breath of disappointment and checked her savings account. Even if she combines her work's salary worth for a year, there is absolutely no way she can afford the membership, she thought.

"I cannot risk such amount for this." She said, realizing how practicality and reality should not be escaped even when faced in a once in a lifetime opportunity of seeing, or maybe having a selfie or a hug with Do Hyun. "That will be insanity and the end of my life." She added in disappointment.

She composed her thoughts and began typing in the words of turning down the tip sender.

"As much as I want to, I cannot afford to sneak my way inside–" Kyoni murmurs but paused when she suddenly realizes a resourceful plan she can probably do. She swiftly deletes the incomplete sentence and retyped another response. "I cannot promise but I will do my best to take a nice shot." She instantly hit sent and smiled giddily with the plan she has in her mind.

Kyoni giggled at her thoughts. "The hotel is a member's only but I can still get inside if I act as if I am interested to apply for membership." She said to herself and exciting browsed thru Do Hyun's social media account and check for updates on his whereabouts.

Right after she took her last class for this summer, Kyoni immediately checks her phone for another tip. Do Hyun will be staying at the hotel for two days just as what she expected.

"You're not gonna join us for drinks?" Alice asks her as Kyoni packs her things.

Kyoni shakes her head, "I'll be busy for the day."

Alice gives her a suspicious look. "Let me guess, going undercover? Again?" Alice walks towards her, pulled a chair, and sat on it. "Aren't you afraid of being sued?"

Keoni rolls her eyes, "first, I'm not violating any laws. Second, you can consider this as a job plus, I get paid for some pics. And third, its fun."

Alice sighed in disbelief. "You have a very weird fetish for things."

Kyoni took a cab all the way to the hotel. She changed her clothes at home to something more appealing, as if she's going on a date- which she has no experience of. Smiling like a fool at Do Hyun's photo, Kyoni arrives at the place.

Like any other hotels, she was able to enter the lobby area. True to its advertisements, the hotels speaks for its own glamour. Kyoni passes by this place a hundred times in her life whenever her family goes to church in the city and never would she imagine having to step this place since it is a well-known hotel for the riches.

"Good day ma'am, welcome to Sunny Side Hills, what can I do for you?" The hotel receptionists greeted. Kyoni pulled her composure. She must hide her ignorance of the place and act as if she is one of those people who would pay for a hundred thousand peso membership.
