The Wedding Planner

Chapter 5

In an instant, when my eyes fell on Jimin, I felt so nervous. Here goes my nervous breakdown.

Level 1 : Stuttering

"H-H-Hey G-Guys, W-what's up?" I nervously said, I wish Jimin wasn't right in front of me, beside Taehyung no less.

"Are your wounds alright? We just came to check on you" Taehyung asked but my eyes kept shifting towards Jimin. "Y-yeah, I'm- I'm- I'm good" I answered. Taehyung chuckled, I never acted like this in high school, unless I was right in front of Jimin.

Level 2 : Sweating

Sweat was trickling down my face then down to my neck. I wiped it with my hands and fanned myself with my hands.

"Why is it suddenly so hot?" I asked while wiping the sweat that never stopped trickling on my forehead.

"It's not that hot Cho, it's actually kinda cold" Taehyung said and my nervousness was getting worse. I just hope Sungjae will get here before level 5.

Level 3 : Odd Gestures

"Chorong, are you alright? You acting weird" Taehyung said while both of them looked at me weirdly.

I nodded vigorously, and kept turning around while waiting for my slow assistant. "Did you hit your head or anything?" Taehyung asked and I shrugged while putting my hands up.

"Do you have a fever or something? You're acting strange" then Taehyung put his left hand on my forehead then his right hand on his forehead to compare our temperatures.

Jimin smirked then took his hand off my forehead and said "she's having her nervous breakdown, we should leave".

Level 4 : Over-thinking

He remembers me? He knows about my nervous breakdown? Did he know since high school? What's going on? Why are boys so complicated? Does he know what happens on Level 5 of my nervous breakdown? Does he know about the 5 levels?

I spaced out, my mind was focused somewhere else then I realized the hand in front of my face trying to snap me out of my trance.

I snapped out of it then looked at who owned the hand. I gasped when it turned out to be Jimin. When our eyes met, he smirked and turned to Taehyung then said "let's go, before level 5 starts".

HE KNOWS?!

"What's level 5? What are you talking about dude?" Taehyung asked while they both walked away from me. I calmed down, my nervous breakdown stopped and I let out a deep sigh. This always happens, then I end up embarrassing myself.

I heard then heard a loud honk, it was the honk of my car. I turned around and found Sungjae arrive.

I sighed as he left the driver's seat then he handed me the car keys and sat in the passenger's seat. I got in the driver's seat and he said "so how was your day?". "Terrible, I'll tell you about it in the office" I said then started the car and drove off.

We got to the company then we both got out of the car and into the building. We passed by so many of my work mates. I think they think of me as that cold but successful type of person when I'm not, I just don't want to mingle with work mates and end up being feared by.

I got into my office and sat at my desk while Sungjae sat in front of my desk. "So, what terrible thing happened while planning the next wedding?" he asked with his arms crossed on his chest.

I dropped my head on my desk, creating a loud thud shocking Sungjae.

"Is it that bad?" he asked and I groaned in response. I looked up with a large pout and my eyes closed. "Can't someone else plan this wedding? Can't I exchange with someone?" I asked Sungjae. "Nope, that's prohibited apparently, so what happened?" he asked.

"My nervous breakdown happened, I'm so stupid!" I complained then dropped my head on my desk again making the loud thud.

"You mean the nervous breakdown with 5 levels? You never showed me the fifth one" He stated and crossed his arms again. "Because I can't really show nor tell you, you'll have to find out yourself" I said and took out the list again.

"By the way, I won't be here the whole day tomorrow, make sure if anyone comes, tell them that" I said. "Where are you going tomorrow?" he asked. "I have to check out the reception places tomorrow for the wedding with the parents of the bride and\or the bride and groom" I said with a deep sigh at the end of my sentence.

"I thought you said the groom was your crush in high school" Sungjae said with a pout. "He is, but somehow, during my nervous breakdown, he knew what would happen next so does he remember me? Did he know about my nervous breakdown before? I'm so dead" I said while pulling my hair in frustration.

"Maybe he finds it cute, I know I do" Sungjae said with a smirk and I said "You're still not going to get a date from me". Sungjae pouted "but I know you better than anyone else here". "That's why you seem more like a younger brother to me than someone I'd date" I stated.

"Alright, you won't be here the whole day tomorrow and oh right, why do you have three band aids on your face?" Sungjae asked "what happened?".

"I was attacked by the groom's ex girlfriend, she wore a lot of sharp rings" I said. "This is the difficult part of being pretty and a wedding planner" Sungjae said.

"What do you mean?" I asked. "With your looks and attitude, you could steal the groom away in one glance" Sungjae said while demonstrating quickly grabbing something to make his point. "Well, not this time, that would be impossible" I said with a deep sigh.

"Oh right, it's an arranged marriage, so whether they love each other or not, they're bound to get married" Sungjae said.

"Yeah, and the bride is a really nice person the last thing I need is to hurt someone who doesn't deserve it" I picked up a pen and played with it repeatedly. "She even made her ex-boyfriend become her man of honor, that must be so upsetting for the guy" I said.

"What do YOU mean?" Sungjae asked. "I mean, imagine this, you're my boyfriend and I'll tell you 'hey, I'm sorry, we should break up because I have to get married, you won't be the groom, but the man of honor' that's painful" I explained. "You have a point, just imagining I'm your boyfriend" Sungjae said and raised his eyebrows at me.

"Hey, we've only known each other for a year" I said and raised my eyebrows at him. "Still though" I sighed then took out my list. I have everything planned, I just need to make it happen "maybe watching him get married will help me get over him, matchmaker style".

"Chorong, that won't work, I have several friends who've tried that and they still aren't over who they like" Sungjae stated "look at me". "It's sad to look at you" I said and raised my eyebrows again. "Why don't you go for the groom's groomsmen?" he asked.

I shook my head vigorously "the groomsmen were all my friends in high school and they said if I'm not planning any wedding after this, then we'd hangout and I actually agreed to it". "Why did you agree to it?" "Because I'm stupid like that you'd understand if you were cornered by 6 men who gave you that 'let's date' gaze" I said feeling a bit annoyed.

"Did the girl who beat you up get arrested? If she did, I don't think it would be long because she could've been drunk and well, she'd be out quick" Sungjae said while playing with the pen on my desk.

"What do you mean, she'd be out quick?" I asked. "If she was drunk, the police would let her sleep in the prison cell and once she's alright and no longer drunk, she'll be out and about again" Sungjae said, "but you know I can always be your body guard instead of an assistant, right?".

"No, you're better as my assistant" .

Sungjae pouted like a child and all I did was giggle.

"Are you feeling alright?" Sungjae asked. "Of course, why wouldn't I be alright?" I asked. "This is the first time, ever since we started working together, that you're over reacting over a guy but then again, he's getting married" he stated.

"Honestly, I'm not really sure. Let's just leave the subject alone and continue on with our lives like it's not a big deal" I said trying to sit comfortably.

"I can do that, but the question is, can you?" Sungjae asked then left my desk and sat at his desk next to the office door.

He has a point, can I?
