Go StrongIndependentWoman Hayi is what she likes to call herself. From thesis to commission works, she's got it under control. But, there's one thing she can't control-Song Yuvin. How can someone so annoying exist in this world?
(For better reading...
"They say when you meet the love of your life, time stops, and that's true." That one line has been replaying in Hayi's mind even long after the class is done, and to her annoyance, Yuvin's face as she saw from up close yesterday at the convenience store is the only thing she can see right now. "No no no no." She aggressively shakes her head to remove those thoughts from her mind. She halts her walk and tries to compose herself. "Hayi, you have a thesis and a commission work to focus on. Stop thinking about other things." She breathes in and out before proceeding to the arts room.
Hayi opens the door to the arts room and finds no one inside which makes her really happy. The faint sunlight coming through the windows covered by long white blinds and the comfortable coldness of the room always makes her feel at peace, and she doesn't want to share it with anyone especially right now.
She sits at a table by the corner and takes out the envelope full of Dongwook's references to review them. "Surrealism is basically a combination of realism and imagination, so the painting is basically a surrealist painting." She says to herself before pulling out her notebook to review her notes. "Growing old with her. Overcoming all challenges together. Love amidst all the chaos.... Love amidst all the chaos..." Hayi repeats the last phrase remembering what Dongwook told her when she asked, "If it's okay with you, may I ask what kind of challenges you may be facing as a couple?" He smiles before answering, "Although we're both in the arts, we have very different lives. Our personalities are totally opposites too. While I like calm settings, she was energetic and fun loving. So, we usually have different opinions on things. Not to mention, she's much younger than me. But we try to make it work. We make it work." Hayi can only sigh at that testament of love. Stories like this always melts her heart.
She turns the page of her notebook and reads her notes which says, "Two people standing, like a wedding portrait. Facing each other, holding each other's hands..." She pauses. There it is again. The long lashes, twinkling eyes, and that soft smile... Hayi gives up. "I should be thinking about Sir Dongwook and Ms. Hana, but why do I see his face?!" Hayi pulls her hair and kicks her feet in the air but then she suddenly remembers she doesn't even know what Hana looks like yet.
She opens her phone and goes to Instagram to check Hana's profile. Like how she reacted upon seeing Dongwook's face in person, she gasps at Hana's beauty. She scrolls through her profile and sees her paintings as well. "She's pretty and talented. They really match each other." Hayi can only admire Hana. "She's totally the kind of person I want to be." She tells herself before jolting. "Okay! Let's draw." She says after getting a rush of inspiration from seeing Hana's works.
