A future to remember

Chapter 2

Stephanie

Beijing

The next day, We woke up early than usual. We had to check out our apparels that just arrived last week. I had to check for the stage set up and everything for the mini runway for Vintage Galaxy by Stephanie Kim which is me.

We going to have a mini runway introducing our new clothes for the Spring/Summer collection. We invited some famous designers, reports and celebrities. Sarah which is my P.A took care of the invitations two months ago.

We arrived at the outlet where the mini runway will took place. The floor was polished, the runway stage was set up. All that left was to make the finishing the deco and place to hangs the clothes.

After done sorting all the apparels and everything, I decided to let my staff and myself to have lunch. They wanted to eat local food so I parted ways with them as I wanted to eat more western cuisine. And I wanted to drink coffee, because I've been craving for it since morning. I didn't had one for breakfast because we kind of skipped breakfast and just ate a few sandwiches.

As I walk along the street of Beijing, an American style cafe caught my eyes. I entered the cafe and to my surprise, the deco inside it was filled with a combination of American Coffee Shop and Oriental Culture. The cafe really looked like an antic Chinese Coffeeshop and when you go inside it, you would feel like it was already night time because of the cozy and dim light.

I was assist to a table and ordered a cup of Hot Mocha, a plate of Carbonara Fettuccine and a light Vanilla Ice cream for dessert.

As i was waiting for my order, a tall guy wearing shades and mask walks in the cafe and sat opposite to my table. He was in a rush as if someone was chasing him. He opens his shades and facemask, and revealed his sweaty yet handsome face. Then I realised why does his face looks familiar, his face looks like Kris Wu but maybe just a-look-a-like. Why would Kris Wu came here alone without any bodyguards or even Manager. And Kris Wu should be in Shanghai if I'm not mistaken. Then suddenly my phone rings. I pick up and answer. It was my P.A, she told me about our segment have been published. Tomorrow the magazine will be shown to public. I looked back at Kris but he was already gone. I didn't got the chance to ask for an autograph or even say 'hi'. Aiishh Stephanie stop that! My fangirling mode. Okay I admit, I have a crush on Kris Wu. Since his Exo days till now.
So I headed back to my outlet.

Erica

Seoul

Later tonight, I got an invitation to HBA 's new arrivals fashion show. Because I had nothing to do during the day, I went strolling in the mall. I had to check out the new s/s collections. I entered that shop and a lot of them caught my attention. I bought a few dresses and jackets so I could wear them tonight.

Later that night came, I had myself prepared and sent by my driver to the venue. What surprise me was, the mini red carpet. I was been informed about a red carpet before. I just posed and flash a smile to hid my nervousness. Yes I was nervous, I didn't really like the public's attention. Because of my background, I have to go to big event like this. But I have to face it because I'm the youngest daughter of one of the biggest company in Korea. Of course one of the heir of the company.

After done photoshoot at the red carpet, I entered the hall. O was greeted by a grand party. Launch party. The collections were placed in every corner. HBA have been sponsoring me for 3 years now. I was once taken as their model for last year s/s collections. They wanted me to be their permanent model. But I turn down the offer because I don't want my face to be everywhere. I had enough already on tabloids and news website.
I was seated in the front row with A-list celebrities. Suddenly someone sat next to me. I looked at that person. I froze. It was my old schoolmate and ex-crush, Jeon Jungkook. Well I used to go gaga over him during the school days but then he moved away so i stopped hoping that i will meet him again and let my feelings go away. It's just a slight crush.

"Erica? You're Erica Park right? It's me Jungkook "he said with his killing smile.

"Eh.. yeah i am. Hey Jungkook. Good to see you again. "

"Can we go and have coffee after this? "he asked.

"uhmm well. Yeah okay"

After the fashion show ended, me and Jungkook went to the nearest coffee shop. We talked about a Lot of stuff. Jungkook now a solo artist of Sky Entertainment. It's where I belong too. I'm Sky models new intern. I just sign up with them last week and going to work on a project in two weeks. We exchanged numbers and parted our way back.

Fifi

Tokyo

"Can i take your order? "the tall worker said to me.
I looked at the menu an ordered their signature dish.
"Okay miss. Please wait for your order. It will be done in a short time. "he said.

After 10 minutes, that waiter came back with my order. He put down all the dish i ordered. I look at him, mesmerizing his face because he looks familiar like i knew him before. But when?

I asked him to join me so i can get to know about him better. His name is Izzy Kamiya, an art school graduated, now working at the cafe to earn money for his project.

Our conversation had been cut short by his employer, he had to continue his work.

I was still wondering, who was this guy. He looks familiar but never mind I'll will come here to this cafe again and investigate.

I continued eating and left after paying the bills. I went to the art shop to buys some art's tools for my mini project. I'm trying to do some design and new invention, maybe it can help me for my next interviews.

Life is hard.

Victoria

I quickly tidy up my desk and took a few glanced at the mirror, fix up my hair and make up then took all my stuff downstairs.

I got in my car and drove it to the restaurant where my so called "blind date " going to be.

I arrived at the Majestic Palace, the place where mom likes to go when she's having meet up with her clients. I went inside and said my name at the reception then i was lead to my table. My blind date was already there.

"Hi, are you Brian Rampsen the one that my mom, Mrs. Yoon asked to have a lunch date with me? "i said.

he stood up and said "ouh yes that's me and you must be Mrs. Yoon's daughter, Victoria Yoon. Nice to meet you. Call me Brian. "and shook hands with me.

"Nice to meet you too. Call me Victoria. "and both of us sit down and ordered meal.

While waiting for the meal, we talked about our interest, jobs, current issues. He's not bad. He's way smarter and classy that all the guys i met. I should test him with the 3 dates rule.

On the 3rd date, I will decide whether he's the one or we should just remain friends maybe.

He looks handsome with his blue eyes, and blonde hair. He has a firm figure from the way he sits, maybe he likes to play sports.

"Brian, do you like to play sports? "

"I love sports. I play tennis every weekends and basketball every Friday night. I adore swimming to when i have free times. But i'm a little busy these days so i haven't got the time to swim. Do you like sports Victoria? "he asked while staring at me with his lovely blue eyes.

"I adore sports too. I usually went to play tennis during weekends. But i have been busy these days too so i only got the time to hit the gyms twice a week. "

"wow you love tennis to huh? let's play together when you are free. "he said.

"I would love to. I will notice you when. "

We talked all the way till it was 3 in the evening.

"hey look at the time. it's already past lunch time. "he said

"oh my, haha we were to engross talking about sports until we forgot about our work. I'm sorry i took your time. "

"it' okay. it's not your fault. We should held back to our office then. "he said after he paid the bills.

Before we separated our ways, we exchange business card. And said our goodbyes.

I held back to my office to check out the upcoming issue and then settled my stuff and went home.
