Jennie didn't know why, but her wandering led her back to Imperial Star Mall. She ran a hand through her hair in frustration, deciding to walk out, but paused. She needed a gown for tomorrow. Reluctantly, she walked towards the elevator. When the store representatives came forward, bowing, she waved them off.
"I can handle it by myself today."
They bowed again and excused themselves. When the elevator door slid open, Jennie strolled inside and by reflex, pressed the highest floor of the mall.
Without much motivation or any stores in mind, Jennie walked wherever her feet took her. Not long after, she stopped right in front of SMF. She was surprised to find herself there, but she was even more surprised to see a familiar striking supermodel chatting with a store employee.
"Somi?" She called out, surprised to see her.
Somi paused and turned around, a cold expression on her face — the same one her brother always had. Who was stupid enough to call her loudly in public?!
Upon seeing who it was, a switch was flipped. "Jenjen!" Somi's attitude completely changed. Genuine happiness spread over her face as she practically ran to hug Jennie.
"What are you doing here?" Jennie laughed as Somi enveloped her into a crushing hug. After spending so much time overseas, Somi had picked up several customs of foreigners, which wasn't a surprise to Jennie.
"Wait, don't tell me, you're the designer behind SMF?" Jennie gasped, nearly smacking herself for not realizing this sooner.
"Yep, was it a big shock?" Somi bobbed her head, latching onto Jennie's arm and guiding her into the store. She instructed the female employee to lock the doors. With Jenjen here, the entire store was closed out so she could have all the time in the world to look around here undisturbed.
Somi wanted to rush to Jennie right away when she saw the scandal in the media, but she wasn't home and none of the employees back at the Kwon Mansion knew where she had gone.
"Well yeah. No one told me anything." Jennie snorted, sitting down on the plush couch as she took in Somi's appearance. She was dressed from head-to-toe in glamour, but unlike her usual casual attire, she was sporting very professional clothing.
"I wanted to keep it a secret from everyone." Somi had a fond expression on her face. "I didn't want to use my supermodel fame to gain exposure for the brand. It should succeed on its own."
Fashion designing had been a dream of hers ever since she was a child, but instead of being handed a brush and paper, she was handed a violin. And when the violin was abandoned, she was handed a modeling contract. With all of her hard-earned money from her career, she decided to finally turn her dreams into reality.
"Please don't tell Lisa oppa or my parents... They don't know about this yet." Somi added on, worried they might force her to give up her dream career. Her parents were always against the idea of her working, modeling was supposed to only be a hobby for her. If they discovered she wanted to be a lifelong designer and devote herself to the profession, there would be too much unnecessary conflicts.
Jennie bobbed her head. "Of course." She firmly said, her lips locked.
Somi blew out a sigh of relief. If it was anyone else that said it, she would not believe them. From being constantly tricked because of her naivety, Somi often had a problem trusting people. In this world, there was only a handful she dared to consult with and Jennie was the main person she trusted.
"By the way, Somi, you don't happen to have a spare dress on hand, right?" Jennie tried her best to keep her voice from sounding too hopeful for fear of burdening Somi.
