After drinking my feelings away with Yoosung, I had a major hangover in the morning. Puking into my toilet like a just saw a pile of organs. I leaned back against the wall, wiping my mouth off.

"Disgusting," I said, laughing dryly before flushing the toilet. "It looked sorta like Maddona...."

I sighed and got up, having a hand over my stomach as it ached. I weirdly felt free and great, but also felt like shit all at once. It was kind of appealing. I grinned somewhat and walked over to the couch, sitting down. I completely forgot what was even bugging me in the first place.

My phone buzzed repeatedly, but my lazy, hungover self refused to rise and grab it. If it was so important they'd know to leave a voicemail. I leaned forward, a firm grip on my stomach, to grab the remote. The Tv turned on with the press of the bright red button, I surf through the channels not sure what to watch exactly.

I pause as an interview with Echo Girl pops on. She was always a pretty girl but seemed a bit too...Happy for me to ever watch. She was pretty popular in dramas, and I'd love to act with her one day. But, I'd take any role at this point.

Right as I was about to start listening, a faint knock could be heard from my door. I stood up and sighed, swiping my phone as I went to the door. I opened it expecting to see a package or maybe someone from RFA. No, instead was the star Echo Girl. Talk about foreshadowing.

"Hey, Zen~!" She smiled brightly, showing off her pearly white teeth. "I just wanted to know if you got the call from your director about the drama we were gonna shoot together...I was so excited."

I looked up thoughtfully, not recalling that. "Oh, that must've been what the phone call was about. I'm sorry I wasn't aware E-"

"Call me, Choi Kyungju," She insisted, continuing her bright smile. "I can't believe you didn't know! I'm such a big fam too and I was excited."

"Y-you're a fan?" I said, stuttering in shock.

Choi grabbed my hand, "Of course Zen, I love you after all~!" I snatched my hand back, caught of guard. She was persistent and grabbed my hand again. "I was thinking, since we're love interests in the drama we should go on a date to practice. I was also so worried while you were in that slump, I wanted to come check on you but I was busy around that time."

I looked at her slightly taken aback by all of this. I shake my head. "I'm sorry, I'm not sure if I'm exactly interested in the role at this moment. A lot is going on and...Well, I'm really sorry Choi."

Choi stepped back, before yanking my arm down to hug it. "Can't you at least consider it?" Her bright wide eyes turned into puppy dog eyes that seemed almost irresistible.

I probably would've said yes, upon looking back at this. I clearly wasn't having it this week. "Choi, I said no. As much as it make you upset, I won't you take the role. Give it to someone better, I'm sorry."

Choi's face fell. She let go of my arm and looked at me, stiffening her face and body. "Do you know how long it took me to work this out? I begged and begged. Then you went in a slump so I couldn't ask then. I ask now, and you still say "No"!?" She began to yell at me. She shoved me inside my house and stepped in slamming the door.

"Hey, this counts as a bre-"

"Shut it!" She screeches, my eyes widening, slightly scared of her. "You want to play like that, I can destroy you, Zen. Now take back what you said. Say yes to the role and go out with me."

"Why would I-"

"Because, if you don't~" Choi goes into her purse and pulls out a few printed picture. I furrow my eyebrows slightly pissed from her cutting me off. "I'll release this to the public."

She tossed them at me, I quickly attempted to catch them all. I gasped loudly, seeing the pictures of Jumin and Me, One in the elevator incident, Me yelling at him from the window, and lastly. When Jumin kissed me, from my front gate, door slightly opened. She got them. All of them somehow.

"How the hell did you get these?" I asked, my mouth being open from surprise.

"If the media got a hold of these, quite a scandal. This would destroy Jumin, then afterwards hearing about the victim sexually harassed the famous Echo Girl!?" She faked a gasp, covering her mouth.

"What do you mean...? You have no proof." I said, raising an eyebrow. She smirked and stepped closer, a small glare hidden in her eyes.

"No, but I have tons of people willing to be my alibi, who will they believe? Zen or Echo Girl?" She cackled. "Now what do you say?"

I looked down and dropped the pictures, I got down on one knee and said quietly. "Choi Kyungju, would you do me the honor of going on a date?"

"I'll have to think about it."

I darted my head up at her, with an alert look.
She waved and walked out.
