The street of downtown Seoul was packed. I was stuck in traffic and five minutes late for my diner with my best friend Oh Hayoung. To relax a bit I turn to radio on.

"...Of course he is, but let's talk about today trending topic" said one announcer.

"We are talking about candidate Park Chanyeol who made his very first public speech today looking stunning accompanied by his fiancé Park Lizzy who also made a big Bang on the red carpet this morning" Added a women announcer.

Hearing positive comments on Oppa was music to my ears. He was indeed well dressed for his speech his wife was more of an accessories then anything. Judging from the way I'm describing you can already guess that I'm not a huge fan of my sister in law, but that's for another time right now the road are clear and I can finally drive worry free.

I entered the restaurant and got assisted to my table where Hayoung was sitting sipping on a cup of tea.

"You're late" she said not bothering looking at me.

"I'm sorry on my way over here I ran into traffic and couldn't do anything about it to make up for you I'll take care of your share."

"Forget it with the salary you're making you can't even afford your own car." She says.

Her remark wasn't wrong, Chanyeol isn't rich to pay everybody since I'm his little sister he takes care of my spending and makes sure that I have everything taking care. How does he get all his money to pay the rest of the team? Park Lizzy-sshi, she's the youngest daughter of a very powerful man who owns South Korea's largest vehicle design company. So pretty much oppa and needed money got an arranged marriage with Lizzy unnie and gets sponsors by his soon to be father. Yeah!

"Wow" said Hayoung.

"What's wrong?" I asked

"It's been three minute since you came and you haven't blurred something about Chanyeol-oppa" said while checking her watch. "Wasn't it today that he gave his first public speech? And you are not going to praise him?"

"Not today" I simply replied as I took a menu. I could feel Hayoung analysing me.

"Who are you and what have you done to my best friend?" she asked suspicious.

"Ha ha very funny enough people are praising him for me I can at least have a moment for myself not everything is about Chanyeol-oppa" I said.

"Saddle sweetheart everything you do you do it for your big bro, I don't remember you ever done something for yourself that's why I always ..."

My cell phone rang it was my older bro he must be calling from his diner with our family in law. I looked up at Hayoung who tried really hard to keep a calm expression on her face.

"It'll only take a minute I swear" I stood up and walked towards the bathroom. Once away from the crowed I answered my phone.

"Hello" I said.

"Yah....Park Soo...young where are you?" I could barely hear Oppa voice from all the background noise. Our father in law must've thrown a reception to celebrate the big event that occurred this morning.

"Oppa I can't hear you"

"Alright I entered a room, I couldn't even hear myself talking" he said. "So what did you think?"

"What are you talking about?" I acted to make him react.

"Yah! You want to die? How can you not know what I'm talking about where were you this morning?" he fell right in my trap.

"I was on top of my bed, under my bed sheet made myself a healthy breakfast ..."

"Forget it, forget it" he sounded so disappointed

I giggle before going back to the conversation. "After your now trending speech I turned to radio and they said some positive reviews on you"

"Did they now that's great it's a good thing right?"

Chanyeol-oppa is running against three more well known candidates while he is considered just another pretty face with a rich wife. So every times he hears that a radio station, a newspaper or a TV station said something good about him he gets all excited like child in a candy shop.

"Were getting there it wasn't a popular station, but there is no reason for you to give up there is still a long way for you to go. Running for president isn't an easy road." I tried my best to sound positive oppa isn't a child he knew.

"Yeah well that's why you're here to make me the best"

His remarked made me smiled. I looked up and saw Hayoung showing me her watch.

"Yeah there's no need to worry about that. Listen I have to go I'm actually having dinner with..."

"Sooyoung-ah I have to go father in law is going to give a toast in my honor talk you to you later ok"

Before I could reply he had already hung up. I went up to take my seat. Hayoung was staring at me with a judging attitude. I tried hard not make any eyes contact with her my eyes were wondering at the menu.

"So how's Chanyeol oppa" she asked.

"I know you don't want to hear about it"

"Of course I do have you checked your phone? He is trending like crazy my best friend older brother is trending someone that I have grown up. Of course I want to know how is"

I peaked at Hayoung usually she hates it when I talk about Chanyeol oppa she says that I'm obsess when it comes to him that I can nonstop without a break. She over exaggerates things she always does.

"Are you sure want to know how Chanyeol oppa is?" I had to ask just to make sure she was ok.

"I'm all ears" she simply answered while taking a sip of her tea.

"Well, if you insist.." I started explaining to her everything from how nervous he was for his speech to where he is right now. Hayoung was just listening even when our food came she was still paying attention to what I was saying.

"... Of course he didn't want to wear the red tie so I had to force him..."

"Enough!" she finally snapped. "You've got problem girl"

"What are you talking about? You ask.."

"I asked how was he not a documentary of his day. Sooyoung I know you love and support you brother, but this is getting out of hand"

"I don't know..."

"When you were on the phone earlier it felt like you were speaking with your boyfriend."

"Why do you always have to exaggerate things?'

"I'm not exaggerating anything living proof you've latterly spent an hours talking about like your some crazy fan."

We sat there staring at each other without a word. Hayoung took a deep breath before speaking again.

"Sooyoung I love you and I only want what's best for you, but sweetheart you need to lay off you older brother he is latterly the reason for everything you do. You only live once Sooyoung live it to the fullest not over your brother success."

The waiter came to our table to give us the check. I took my wallet, paid my share and stormed out the restaurant leaving Hayoung behind.
