Flashy suffocating dresses.
Huge monstrous crowds.
Mingling human beings.
Loud ass music.
Drunken perverts dancing.
This is how I view parties or clubs. I don't even know how I easily got dragged here by my best friend, which is also a rising actress, Lee Sohye.
Wearing a dress that showed more cleavage than I had ever worn, I swear that I will kill her sorry ass when we get home.
She forced me to wear that stupid electric blue strapless dress that showed way much of my skin and it accentuated my supposedly hidden curves.
She even described me as 'pretty, no, hella gorgeous!'.
Tch, her lies won't get me anywhere as I'm self aware that I'm a potato most of the time. That's why I don't even bother to look pretty if I go out. And that's why I don't do blind dates either. They'll be disappointed once they see me, I can assure you.
Anyway, enough of my me talk. I want to elaborate what has happened in the past hour.
ONE HOUR AGO...
"It's a club isn't it?" I asked my best friend, Sohye, who has been checking herself out in her phone's front camera, constantly asking me whether her makeup is too strong or not.
She ignored my question. Asking the chauffer whether we're there or not.
I rolled my eyes. Typical Lee Sohye. I swear I'll kill her later.
I really detest clubs and unwanted attention. It's tiring and also suffocating. I had a really bad memory on my last party, I lashed out at the host for sexually harassing me. Well, he was drunk, but that doesn't mean that he can touch a stranger, moreover a girl, on her private parts.
Like, he legit grabbed my boobs with both of his hands. And I kicked his body part where the sun doesn't shine. It shocked everyone in the party, and it made my anxiety resurface after a long hiatus.
My goosebumps were appearing, cold sweat trickled on my skin as my hands shakily removed his cupping hands on my breasts.
Disgusted and embarrassed, I left. I left Sohye there alone, she would've understood.
Now, knowing that I had bad experiences on parties, she wants to take me to a fucking club?! I don't know what's going on in her head right now, but I really want to know the reason why is she dragging me here when she has other actor friends who are used to such environments.
When I asked her earlier in our apartment, she answered me 'I have a good feeling about this' and other bullcrap that I'm not buying. There must be a specific reason that I mustn't know. But I'm tempted to find out.
"We're here ma'am" The chauffeur said and Sohye leaped with joy.
She pushed me to get out of the expensive car and she giddily squealed.
People like her would be excited, but people like me would be nervous.
As we moved nearer towards the building, I can see a long line of dressed up people waiting impatiently. I can die waiting in such a long line like that. But thank goodness Sohye is a VIP, she can just march right in. And I followed.
Outside, the loud blasting music was audible, I couldn't imagine how loud the music might be inside.
Adding to my long list of annoying things in life, is the eardrum breaking music. It's annoyingly loud, and irritating.
Knowing how I detest this as soon we stepped foot in the loudass building, Sohye grabbed my wrist and pulled me through the dancing crowd, to a quite empty corner. The bar.
"I know you don't like huge crowds, but I'm looking for a friend, so I'll leave you here for a while," Sohye paused, "Who knows, you might meet a hottie that's bangable, ya know" She winked and grinned cheekily.
"Gross!" I exclaimed while pushing her away.
"Aw come on! Live a little!"
"No thank you, now run along, look for your friend, I'm okay being here, alone," I said with a smile.
"You sure?" I nodded, assuring her that she has nothing to worry about, although I'm actually worried at myself, but I decided to just let her be.
And she disappeared to the crowd. Leaving me, alone.
"Yerin?"
PRESENT TIME
"Yerin?" I heard someone with a raspy, low voice calling out my name.
Well, Yerin is a quite common name in Korea. And since I have a small circle of friends, who are the same species as me, who doesn't go to parties, I highly doubt that the owner of the raspy, low voice knows me.
Maybe, he's calling out another Yerin who happens to be here too.
I ignored it. I took out my phone from my hand and it showed my Kim Taehyung lockscreen. I looked at the time and it's late at night. Usually, at this time of the day, I would probably watch dramas and never ending youtube. Now, I'm wasting my time here doing nothing, surrounded by weird strangers, well not technically since the bar is not as crowded as the dance floor, but you get the point.
I went straight to instagram and looking at the insta stories, Kim Taehyung's one is the most recent.
Allow me to introduce him; Kim Taehyung, or also known as Taehyung. He's a multitalented individual, a casanova, a man of my dreams. He's known for his inhuman good looks, his goofy behavior off-set, his kind heart and of course, his unending talents. He made his debut as an actor when he was in high school, and I've been a fan of him ever since. He's also a highly paid model who stars every CF existing. He also sings, he has two albums and three mini albums. He dances as well, but being the broke fangirl, I've never went to his showcases or concerts or even catch a glimpse of him since I'm always at home, watching videos related to him.
I viewed his story, and surprisingly, he snapped a bar, that looks just like the one I'm at. Being the talkative, thick skinned person online, I direct messaged him.
Annyeong Oppa!
sent 11:34 p.mI giggled and I realized that he never replied to me, so I just sighed and closed my phone.
"Chae Yerin?" The raspy voiced man said my name again.
I ignored him.
Then, I felt a sudden poke on my shoulder. Surprised, I flinched on my seat, before facing sideways to respond to the human being interacting with me.
"Yes?" I shyly said, before my eyes landed on his.
And I could not believe what I just saw.
I gasped.
Both of my hands covered my gaping mouth. I could feel my whole face heating as I saw the most handsome face I've ever seen in my lifetime.
There he was, sitting right beside me with one of his photoshoot's outfits and his beautiful facial features was a few inches from mine. Never have I imagined to meet him in such place. He was smiling, at me. I blinked a few times and pinched myself to confirm whether it's a dream or not.
It's not a dream.
The Kim Taehyung is right in front of me.
And I kind of want to pee.
