Somin, Mia and Teho
So far the week was promising. Somin felt a resurgence of energy after so long feeling exhausted. She even went to the nearest bookstore to treat herself to a new romance novel.
I deserve it. Somin's inner iron fist loosened a bit of its painful grasp on her mind.
The lonely girl smiled, finally finishing her previous book after chatting with Teho. She was mad he borrowed the book without her knowing, but she was mostly jealous he finished it first and the fact that he read it at all astounded her.
Is he more than a pretty face and obnoxious jokes?
She smiled to herself and bought three more books.
"Astounding Lover"
Cheesy, but why not.
Let's give it a try. Maybe the male lead will be more sympathetic than Jeff.
"Best of Me"
Quite quirky. Hopefully, a fluffy romance.
Finally, she picked up the new bestseller.
"Blue Side"
It sounded more serious.
If anybody dies in it I'm throwing it out. I'm not ready for a second heartbreak.
The walk back home was almost dream-like. The clouds got a kitsch pinkish orange glow and if you had dared to draw it, you'd be damned by your art teacher for lack of taste.
Somin stopped at a newly discovered coffee shop on her route home and decided to enjoy a strong flat white in its garden, basking in the faint sunlight and starting to read. She envied the heroine right away.
How come she's so accomplished and there's me who literally doesn't know what to do with my life? Why do these women always live in New York and after graduation get the job of their dreams immediately? How do they do it?
She sipped her coffee, wondering who the love interest would be this time.
Some brooding, extremely hot, incredibly young CEO? A coworker who's an artist in his private time? Long lost friend? A well-known celebrity with a secret kink?
