The birthday party was held at one of the kim group's hotels, turning into a grand affair. I couldn't shake off the feeling of disdain as I found myself reluctantly attending this ostentatious event.
Why was there so much fuss over a mere birthday party for some heiress anyway? I would have much rather spent my time watching a new anime or going on a long drive. Why did it have to revolve around the spoiled daughter's celebration? This thoughts swirled in my mind until I witnessed something that flipped my mood entirely.
It had to be a lie, right?
There was no way she was marrying kim. I couldn't let this happen. I had been having my eyes on her for a month now, unsure if my feelings for jiaa were genuine. But this event stirred up frustration and maybe even hurt within me. I couldn't bear to witness it any longer. Jiaa stood before me. Taehyung slipping a ring onto her finger, and the applause of the crowd echoed around us. Thank goodness for the themed masks at the party ; they shielded my expression from view.
Beside me stood jimin, and on my left, ji yeon, jiaa's so-called best friend. We had been classmates for years, but I knew ji yeon was nothing but trouble. It was time for jiaa to realize that she shouldn't trust this girl. However, in my current state, I had no right to interfere in anyone's affairs.
I glanced at ji yeon's masked figure, her grip tight on her wine glass. Something felt off about her, and my suspension were confirmed when she suddenly smashed the glass. A few heads turned in her direction as she hastily excused herself to the restroom.
I couldn't focus on anyone else's emotions or actions ; my own frustration was overwhelming. How could he always end up taking everything I liked? Every fuckin single time. I couldn't understand why this was hitting me so hard. It's not like I had any claim over her. I had no rights over anyone, so why did it hurt so much?
She wasn't even extraordinary - just an average girl with a tall figure and long hairs that stirred unwelcome thoughts of holding her close and making her look into my eyes. It was more than just physical attraction, though ; something deeper was stirring within me, a feeling I couldn't quite put into words. Maybe I needed to stop Binge-watching that "lucifer" series. I had almost convinced myself I could moved on, that she was just average, but this engagement had scrambled my thoughts in ways I couldn't untangle.
The ring ceremony concluded, and they were officially engaged, for now. I half-joked to myself about ruinning the engagement one way or another, but I knew deep down it was just the frustration talking. Ring ceremonies, weddings - it all seemed as trivial as fuck. As long as I set my eyes on her.
Nothing would stand in my way, not as long as I wanted her. Her father had invited all of our classmates to the party, making me just another attendee, but I was here in a more significant capacity, as the heir to a prominent shitty business group. I had to maintain decorum and present a gift to the "princess" a task made somewhat easier by Choi, who had handed me the present when I opted to ride my bike to the event instead of driving with everyone else.
