Nandini




I stared at the mirror incredulously.

Who is this am I seeing?

They made me wear a deep burgundy mini dress, hugging the curves of my body that I usually keep hidden.

It had a mixture of bold confidence and seductive charm, effortlessly balancing edgy with elegance.

I wore a black leather jacket on top, slightly oversized, making me look effortlessly cool, as if I just stepped out of a late-night city adventure.

The patterned fishnet stockings added rebellious edge while drawing attention to the legs I never show.

Moreover, the black chunky boots grounded the look with attitude-powerful, unbothered, and ready to own any room.

The delicate silver pendant necklace hung on my neckline. A subtle, romantic contrast to the boldness, hinting at a softness beneath the tough exterior.

I didn't take Jimin's pendant off.

I didn't want to.

They kept the makeup light. Highlighting my jawline, collarbone and my doe eyes...

Oh and the eyeshade...

It made my sparkling doe eyes shine with dominance.

I looked at the makeup artist and smiled, feeling nervous.

-"It's okay, don't be nervous. You'll nail it. Fighting!"

She encouraged me, chuckling softly at my nervous expressions.

My heart was pounding.

Photoshoot with.....Park Jimin....

I looked behind when I heard the soft click of the door.

-"I'm do--"

A moment of silence for both of our souls.

His outfit matched with mine.

He wore a black leather jacket, and a black sweatshirt underneath.

Even our eyeshades. The smokey eye look matched perfectly. He had wore rings on his fingers as usual.

And for a moment, my heart dropped to my stomach.

Our eyes locked through the mirror.

I clearly noticed it as he swallowed. His adam's apple bobbed, making me gulp as well.

What the fuck is he thinking!?

I bit my lower lip as I looked away.

-"Uhm...everyone's waiting...outside..."

He spoke in a lower tone, his voice sounded almost......hoarse.

I unconsciously licked my lips and nodded, fixing my dress a little before standing up.

He cleared his throat softly, flashing a small smile.

It's forced.

-"You look....good..."

I had to smile too.

-"You look good too..."

And we both know what our 'good's actually meant.

Going out of the makeup room, I met the cameramen and other staffs.

They smiled widely, approving my outlook.

More like, our outlook.

-"Okay. Guys, let's not delay further and finish our shoots."

The cameramen clapped his hands, gathering everyone's attention.

I and Jimin stood close to each other.

And for a moment, it felt as if we both were deliberately ignoring the other person's presence.

All the while, I kept fixing my dress unconsciously. Sometimes tugging at the silk fabric, or sometimes clutching the jacket tighter.

-"Are you uncomfortable in this outfit? I can tell them to change it if you want..."

I looked at Jimin when he spoke.

Thinking for a moment, I asked instead...

-"Are you sure about this?"

He stared at me for a brief moment before breaking into a soft chuckle.

-"Yup. Pretty much."

-"But I'm not a professional...what if I ruin it?"

-"Then we try again."

He smiled softly at me, my nerves easing at a reflex.

I smiled back at him, trying to keep calm despite my racing heart.

-"The theme is about romance."

My head snapped to the cameraman at his words.

Theme is what!?




Romance!?




I blinked, then looked at Jimin, finding him smiling sheepishly.

-"Actually...my album is about love...you know..."

I nodded, smiling through pain.
