Rowan and I met Sumi's parents and brothers. Her father is efficient and so is her mother. I get it now why they wanted Sumi to be a doctor instead of joining the entertainment world. Since her father is a police chief, he has many enemies, and her mother is a hospital director. So if she were to become a doctor, they would have protect her from the outside world.
Her mother said she wanted to pass her legacy and teach her everything. Her parents were just concerned that the entertainment world is too much tainted for a girl like her. I totally agree with that.
They never wanted to kill her dreams, but protection comes first. When Sumi's brothers talk with them, they understand and support their daughter.
They also thanked Rowan and me for everything we did for their daughter. They told us that everyone tried to take advantage of her innocent self, but we two are her first actual friends.
Her parents might be very powerful people. They might be very busy with their occupation, but what impresses me is that no matter how much they had on their plate, they always made time for their family. They made sure their three children were having a proper childhood. No wonder Sumi is close to her brothers.
After meeting them the three of us were lost in our own little world. Next to our table, my sister, her fiancé, dad, mom and Taehyung's parents were. I'm happy, actually, with the little time with these two idiots. They managed to break my walls one by one. Am I angry about it? Nah. I'm genuinely happy. The frustration and anger from before were long forgotten.
One thing I learn from life is, 'life is a battlefield, but you need to find happiness in small things and be actually happy with that.'
When we were talking, Kim Taehyung's mom asked me to join them, but I politely refused, saying that these two poor kids would be lost without me around. Of course, my father and mother weren’t pleased with that and started to say how disrespectful I am and all, but somehow my sister dearest managed to calm them. But still, from time to time, I saw them stare at us.
Roseanne is probably thinking, " Why am I with her rival. My father constantly stares at Rowan and glares at me. I know he wants me to convince him but kudos to them if they think I'm a pushover like Rose.
The strangest thing was Kim Taehyung. I understand the others, but why does he keep looking? Still judging me for being friends with my sister's rival? Not play family with them? Or I didn’t talk to Rowan about Father? Whatever the reason was this man needs to stop whatever he plans to.
"Hey."
"Huh, Jeon?"
"Fancy seeing you here? When did you come?" the boy asked with a small but sweet smile on his lips.
Jungkook looked at the girl in front of him with a racing heart. When he greeted her from behind and when she got up from her seat to greet him back, he finally got her attention. He has never seen her like this, dressing up. She was indeed the most beautiful girl with her simple look. But y/n in this look is something Jungkook has never seen before. He still manages to talk normally even when his heart is not behaving weirdly.
"I came maybe fifteen or twenty minutes ago. You are late, Jeon boy," she said, the last part slowly teasingly, only for Jungkook to hear.
People around them start to whisper. The CEO of 'Noej', one of the biggest investor companies in Asia, has come to the CEO of the top Real estate company in South Korea ", Kang Corporation". Kang Corporation is not just the biggest company in South Korea, but also worldwide, it has gained a name as the top real estate company.
Of course It's a hot topic to discuss.
"I had an emergency to take care of. Umm, may I sit with you?" he asked, hoping not get rejected.
"Of course. Let me introduce you to my friends."
"This Tae Sumi, you probably know her face is everywhere, and this is Rowan Hayes, he is a lawyer. And guys, this is Jeon Jungkook. We are from the same high school and are now business partners." She introduced them to one another
They immediately greet each other. Rowan and Sumi shook hands with Jungkook.
"Please sit with us. By the way, did you come alone?" Sumi asked
"Well yah. Thank you," he said
Small talks were made by them. Surprisingly, for the friends she never introduced them to random people or was welcoming to anyone just like this. The most shocking thing was that she was comfortable around this male. Rowan knew how y/n and Jungkook met but Sumi didn’t. She just knew y/n and Jungkook knew from school.
Actually, Rowan and y/n are closer to each other. Sumi knew that. She used to feel jealous and bad. But she knew they were with each other when they were at their worst; they had to fight against the world, and at that time, they only had each other to rely on. So Sumi decided to stay by their side of her own will. She simply loves them and doesn't't want to be apart from them. As time passed, Sumi could feel them open up to her one by one. Now she also understands them by looking at their eyes.
Rowan, y/n, Sumi and Jungkook were talking and knowing each other. Mostly y/n's friend showers Jungkook with questions. Rowan looked like he was in court and investigating a most-wanted criminal, but definitely not in a negative way. He just wants to make sure Jungkook meant no harm to y/n. Y/n quietly listens to them and occasionally responds.
Unknown to them Kim Taehyung had his intense dark gaze on y/n and Jungkook.
"Hey look your sister is about to perform." Rowan said nudging me. Of course, my sister is the opening performer of the event, even though Tae Sumi is the group's brand face. They cannot let anyone else take the Kang's first daughter's' spotlight. Especially when my father and the chairman have a good relationship. But Sumi didn’t feel disappointed, she always says, " I believe in me, I believe in my talent. That girl is always so positive and cheerful.
"Your sister? " Jungkook whispers softly looking at y/n
"Yah, older sister," she confirmed, and he made an O face.
The lights went off, Rose went to the stage, and the lights were dim, illuminating her. Everyone cheered for her; she had all eyes on her. She took the violin in her hand and positioned it. She started to play, her beautiful black hair was floating softly due to the wind alongside her beautiful baby pink fairy-type dress. She literally looked like the fairy from a fairytale. Everything about her is like a fairytale.
People were lost in her beautiful smile that was placed on her lips.
When she was done, loud cheering roared through the hall. Kids, teens, men, and women start to shower compliments towards her. My parents had the brightest, proudest smiles on their faces. Our tables were next to each other.
We clap for her. Rose looked at me and gave me a sweet smile. I just stared blankly at her. Her eyes widen slightly seeing Jungkook beside me. She immediately covered her emotion with a smile.
Now it's Tae Sumi's turn. Rowan and I waited patiently for her. Jungkook also seems to be looking forward to it. I can see that Sumi's parents' eyes were gleaming. Sumi took her seat and started to play the piano with a smile on her face. I can feel my lips curve. It's my favourite song "Maze" by Sumi. She started to sing without caring about the world so beautifully. This version of the song was actually so soothing and motivating,
I love it so much.
