"Why do I have to go!? I was supposed to go out with my friends!" I was complaining to my parents because I was supposed to go to an theatre performance with my dad and his business partner.
"Seongwoo, I don't have time for this. Mr. Lee's daughter will be there and I want you to make a good impression. I left a suit in your closet upstairs, so get ready. We'll be leaving in half and hour." I turned to my mom for help but she just shrugged her shoulders.
"I'm sorry Seongwoo, but your fathers right. Besides, this will be an opportunity to meet new people". My mom smiled as she rubbed my back, dragging me up to my room. I sighed as I dragged myself up the stairs.
I entered my room and saw the suit my dad mentioned in my closet. I took my phone out and checked the time. 7:45 pm. I heard my dad calling me to hurry up. I groaned and put on the suit with my quick styled hair.

My father and I made it to the theatre and found my father's friend. While they were talking, I looked around for the supposed 'daughter' of my father's partner. Mr. Lee noticed and smiled. "Don't worry Seongwoo, you'll see my daughter soon. She's preparing a surprise for the both of you."
I looked at Mr. Lee with confusion written all over my face. Before I could ask any more questions, people ushered us to our seats, as the show was about to start.
[Your POV]
I took a deep breath in as I looked in my mirror. I was in the dressing room with the other actors and actresses, getting ready for our performances. The director started calling us to our positions and I nodded. As I was getting up, I saw a text from my father.
<<Break a leg sweetheart. I'll be watching from the audience>>
I smiled at the text and looked at the mirror one last time. I have myself a 'Hwaiting ' sign before going on stage. Before I could take a step on stage, I was stopped by a PA. "You forgot your mask. Thank goodness I caught up to you."
I glanced at his hands and saw my mask and smiled. "Thank you. I would've totally forgotten about it." I put my mask on and stepped on stage with a big smile.

[Seongwoo's POV] I saw the lights dimmed and rolled my eyes. I saw a young lady, with a dark mask, step on stage but just started playing with my watch. It wasn't until I heard her sing, that my full attention turned to her.
The lights on stage turned on, allowing me to see her features more clearly. She had amazing (Y/H/C) hair and sparkling (Y/E/C) eyes. Her black dress fitted her figure perfectly. I couldn't help but smile like an idiot. My father and Mr. Lee noticed and just smiled at each other.
I just stared at her for the entirety of the performance. She seemed to notice because when her solo came, I felt she was only looking at me. I felt my throat become dry and my hands become sweaty. I didn't know what to do.
After a while, the show ended and everyone stood up in applause. I kept on smiling but I felt my heart skip an beat everyone I glanced at the mystery girl. I turned to my dad. "I need to make a call". He just nodded but looked at his wristwatch. "Hurry up, you still have to meet Mr. Lee's daughter."
I ran out of the theatre and made my way to the bathroom. I called Daniel while I loosed my tie. "Pick up..pick up..pick up...". Just as I was about it end the call, I herd a voice. "Hello?"
I sighed in relief and answered. "Hello, Daniel. It's Seongwoo. I need your help. I don't know why but when I saw this girl, I just started feeling things that I've never felt. My hands were sweaty and my throat was dry and my heart was beating really fast. Am I sick or something?"
I just heard laughter at the other end of the line. "Hyung..you're in love! Who's the girl? When can we meet her?" My eyes widened at what Daniel said and before I could answer, I saw another call from my dad.
I sighed and went back to the call. "Listen Daniel, I gotta go. My dad needs me." I ended the call and headed to where my dad and his partner were. As I came closer, I saw the figure of a girl. The closer I came, I noticed it was the girl I saw on stage.
[Your POV]
I stood by my father and his friend after taking picture with some fans. "(Y/N), you were amazing. You never told my how talented she was Mr. Lee!" My father smiled and I bowed at the comment his partner said.
I noticed a figure come closer to us and realized it was the boy who was staring at me during the performance. At first, it thought he was creepy, but now that I saw him in better light, he looked handsome. I smiled at him as his father introduced him.
"(Y/N), this is my son, Ong Seongwoo. Seongwoo, this is Lee (Y/N), Mr. Lee's daughter. We'll leave you two to talk as your father and I to talk about some issues." I saw the two men leave as they left me alone with Seongwoo.
I turned my attention back to him and nervously smiled. "So...did you like the performance? I worked hard to do my best." Seongwoo nodded and smiled brightly. "To be honest, I didn't even want to come. But after seeing and you perform, I think I'll come back again for sure."
I blushed a bit and nodded. "Thank you. That's actually the sweetest thing I've heard my entire career of doing this. Mostly things about my looks and my status. It's gets annoying sometimes."
Seongwoo laughed a bit and pointed at me. "I know exactly how you feel!? The amount of fundraiser dinners I've been to are in the hundreds." I giggled and nodded. "And don't forget about the country club charity competitions. We can never miss those. Wait.. did you family also do.."
"The New Years Eve Gala!?" We both said at the same time. We laughed it off as Seongwoo continued. "How can we not! It's more important to us than Christmas! Christmas!"
I smiled brightly at Seungwoo. "I've never related to someone as easily as o did with you. This was fun."
Seongwoo smiled back and looked down at his shoes. "This doesn't have to end so soon though..." I looked at him with confusion as he continued. "Say, (Y/N), I don't know what you're into or if you had as much fun as I did right now, but I'd like to get to know you better. Would you like to go out on a date with me?"
I smiled as my cheeks were as red as my lipstick. I nodded "Of course. But I have a question. What will we talk about?" He stepped closer and looked down at me. He smiled and leaned near my ears and whispered. "Anything and everything you want..."
