Do not touch (Minsung)

2

Jisung was now dressed fully in Hermes and getting the brief on the show. They had him do his best walk and he literally slayed way too hard. Jisung is nervous to say the least. He's fidgeting with the jewels in his outfit as he waited in line to walk. The first model had just gone and luckily Jisung was one of the last few. Though that means he needs to make an impression on the audience who are slowly starting bore. The theme was western country with fancy flare. Jisung had a cowboy hat on as well as bedazzled boots.

His turn was approaching making his nerves shoot up, in his head he kept encouraging himself. He could do this. Now. Facing backwards he moved on stage holding his hat before turning and beginning to walk with a fierce look. He made eye contact with a few people capturing them with his captivating visuals. The audience stared mouth ajar at this newbie that took over the run way. The outfit, the style, the model. It was too perfect. When at the end he posed lifting his hat up a bit to show his eye makeup before turning around looking over his shoulder and walking back down the runway.

At the end he turned once more winking at everyone and exiting. The manager stared at him in shock as well as other models. "That was your first time modeling?!" The manager yelled out shaking Jisung's shoulders. "Yeah." He shrugged trying to get the hands off of him. "You need to work for me please please." He begged and another man came up. "Wait this one isn't yours?" He spoke and the manager glared at him. Jisung said no. He's not the managers.

"Well you should work for me at Chanel." Another guy popped in. "No work for me at Prada." Another man popped in "Gucci work for Gucci." Jisung's breath stopped. Did this stunning man really just say that to him. "And you are?" He asked looking at the handsome man. "The names Lee Know." He spoke making eye contact with Jisung who stifled his gasp. The Lee Know? "Let's speak to my boss." He spoke grabbing Jisung's wrist tightly and dragging him to the manager's dressing room where he barged in on her. "Tyra this is the boy that just walked for Hermes and literally killed the audience. No he is not signed with Hermes." Lee Know spoke quickly but quite clearly in Korean. Tyra hummed and looked over at Jisung.

"Pull up a contract." She spoke and Lee Know jumped into action grabbing her phone and opening it. "Wait I really am not looking to model I wanna be a designer." He spoke looking down at the floor shuffling awkwardly. "BHA- YOU! A DESIGNER?!" Lee Know laughed loudly keeling over with how hard he was laughing. Jisung felt tears spring at his eyes watching the scene unfold. "Sorry honey but I have to agree with Lee Know I don't think you could ever be a good designer."

*CRACK*

Jisung could hear his own heart shatter to a thousand pieces. The tears punched at his eyeballs as he took the phone and reluctantly signed the contract not even reading it in full due to how upset he is. At least he gets to work with Gucci though. It's better than nothing right? Jisung exited the room and texted his boss telling him he was quitting. He blocked the number as he recently got paid so his current paycheck wasn't that large yet. Jisung decided to just head right back to his hotel where he barricaded himself in his room to cry for a bit.

His heart hurt with the sting of the words. He sobbed into the sheets replaying the words in his head. His breaths came out broken and his chest heaved. What snapped him out of his sadness was his phone ringing. Seungmin was calling. He sighed answering the phone.

"Hey Ji where are you?"

"I'm at my hotel."

"What I thought you were going to meet me backstage?"

"Yeah well plans change. I signed a contract with Gucci."

"Seriously! That's amazing I'm so happy for you!"

"As a model. Not a designer. A model."

Seungmin went quiet. "Why would you do that?"

"I guess I'm just hoping that maybe one day I'll be able to show my designing skills."

"Aish Jisung. Well I'll visit you later alright?"

"Yeah see ya."

"Bye Ji."

The call cut and Jisung dropped his phone on the bed. He laid back to stare at the ceiling. "What's wrong with you Jisung?" He asked himself before getting up to go take a shower. The shower helped clear his head and his sinuses. Truly though it was amazing that he had signed with Gucci so quickly. He was kind of proud of himself for signing at all. He could do this though right?

Maybe if he makes it as a model and pitches ideas to designer here and there he will be recognized for his designing talents. Yeah that sounds like a good plan. New opportunities are arriving at his doorstep and whoa was he to decline.
