We started calling the phone numbers on the list. First one on the list was a guy named Hwang Woneun. When we called his number, it was his secretary who answered and said that he was at a meeting and would be back in a few minutes. "What if the guy is a rich-ass businessman?" Alex asked as we made our way to their office in Incheon. I honestly didn't mind what job he had, as long as he was willing to raise this baby with me.

When we got there, it was a really tall building with sign that said Zeze Corporation on it. Everybody who passed us was wearing really clean-cut business attire. "I feel very under-dressed." I told Alex, who was also just wearing a pair of shorts, a t-shirt, and a pair of sneakers.

We made our way up to his office. No one was at the reception desk, so we just went straight in. We split up as we scanned the name plates on each door. "Liz, I found it." Alex whispered.

The name plate said, 'Hwang Woneun : CEO'. "Holy shite." I mouthed.

We gave a small knock and opened the door. We found the guy with his arms wrapped around a girl who we assumed was a co-worker. "Uhm.." Alex said.

As soon as they heard us, the girl pushed him away, straightened her blouse, and made her way towards the door. "Sorry." The girl told us. I recognized her voice as the secretary we spoke to earlier. "What can I help you with?"

"We're here to see Hwang Woneun." I told her.

"That would be me." The guy replied. "You may leave, Soorin. I can take it from here." He then turned to us. "Please have a seat."

"We would just like to ask you a couple of questions." Alex told him.

Woneun sat down at his desk and took a sip of coffee. "Sure, go ahead."

"You were invited to a party in Gangnam a few days ago, at D-Bridge, right?" Alex asked.

He thought for a bit before grabbing his phone. "Hello, Soorin? Do you remember if I was invited to a party in D-Bridge in Gangnam? ...Oh, that was the night when we-- ...Yes, I remember ...Okay, thank you." He dropped the call and turned to us. "Yes, I was invited to that party, but I couldn't attend because I was busy with... some work... here at the office."

The next guy we contacted was Kwon Woohyuk, who was a journalist for a news company. Their office was quite close, so we decided to go there straight away. When we arrived, the office was so busy that no one even noticed that we were there. We looked around for any cute guys. "Hello? Yes, this is him speaking." We heard a guy with a deep voice say. It was a really hot guy who kind of looked similar to Lee Soohyuk.

I approached a nerdy-looking guy who was sat at his desk. "Excuse me." I told him and pointed to the hot guy. "Would that guy happen to be Kwon Woohyuk?"

"No." He replied, pushing up his glasses. "That's our editor, Kang Soohyun."

"Oh, I see."

"I'm Kwon Woohyuk."

I heard Alex burst into laughter behind me. I turned to the nerdy guy. "Were you at a party at the D-Bridge in Gangnam recently?"

"Yes." He replied. "Why?"

"Well, I met a guy that night and I'm trying to figure out who he was." I explained. "It's kind of a reverse Cinderella thing now that I think about it."

He thought for a bit. "I don't think it was me, I went home with Hanhyo that night."

"Who's Hanhyo?" Alex asked. 

The girl at the desk opposite Woohyuk's got up and smiled, she was equally nerdy. "That would be me. Right, oppa?" She told Woohyuk in a failed cute way. "Oh, I see." I told him. "Thanks anyways."

"You two make a great couple." Alex added before we left.

We spent the entire day looking for the guy I met at that party. It was around 6pm and we were down to the last guy. "I really hope it's this one." I told Alex. "If not, then that means I slept with a guy who's a lot older than me." 

The last guy was Lee Chanji, who worked at a salon in Gangnam. We just the took the subway, so it didn't take long for us to get there. It was a salon called Juno Hair Salon. The lady at the reception desk said that he was styling someone, so she had us sit down to wait. "If it turns out to be this guy, do you think  he can get me a discount for this place?" Alex joked. "I think EXO goes to this salon."

From where we were sitting, we could see a man styling someone's hair. He was tall, well-dressed, and very good-looking. "I'm guessing that's Lee Chanji." I told Alex.

"Dang, he's hot." Alex replied.

Once he was done, he approached us. "Yes, my darlings?" He said in a feminine way. "How may I help you? You know I do men's hair."

My gay-dar was going off like crazy but we were both drunk that night so who knows. We proceeded to telling him the whole story, but then he said he was pretty sure he didn't go home with a woman that night.

After he left, Alex and I just sat there in silence. I buried my face in my hands.

"You okay?" Alex asked.

I sat up and nodded back. "I'm just gonna go out for some air."

I went out and stood at the steps. I heard the door open and assumed that it was Alex. "Let's go home." I told her.

"Uhm, excuse me?" I heard a guy's voice say. "You're the girl I met at D-Bridge, right?"
