Double Knot

Chapter 7:

Lee Eunbi's POV:

While I was talking with Hyunjin, my dad called saying that my driver is in front of the school. I ran to the car with stress.

"Oh, Hyunjin-ssi, thank you for making my first day of school exciting!"

"Why did I say that??" I screamed as soon as I arrived at the car. The driver looked at me with doubts. I lightly bowed my head with embarrassment as proof that I'm still Eunbi.

We went to the entertainment. During this time of the year, reporters and journalists would camp near the building, and there's no way I can avoid it this time.

All of them were waiting in front of the door like cats waiting for their food.

They must be dying to know who the debuting trainees are.

The driver parked further from the building to avoid trouble.

I removed my fake bangs, my pigtails and put it in a high ponytail, took my mask and a cap and covered myself. I walked down the dark alley to go in front of the building.

Hyunjin's POV:

After Eunbi ran away, she left her things at the library.

I took her things with me and I am on my way to training. She is really one of a kind, a crazy one of a kind.

I took a cab to the entertainment. I never liked riding the bus. I put my mask and my cap on to avoid rumors.

When I arrived, there were reporters camping around the building. How am I supposed to get in?

I saw this girl in front of the building. Maybe she's a trainee, she seems to want to go inside.

I walked up to her. She was also wearing a mask and a cap.

"There's no way we can go inside with the reporters camping all over." I spoke up.

"Ah kkamjagiya!"She was startled.

"You're a trainee?" I asked, maybe she knows me already, I assume, everyone knows me here.

"Uhhh, yes?" She said backing off. "Are you one of the reporters?"

"What? No I'm not, you don't know who I am?" I was surprised. I was sure everyone knows me here.

"No." She left me surprised.

"There's no way we can get inside." She looked at her phone. But she hid it from me.

"Hey! There are trainees in the front!" One of the reporters started shouting and all of them started coming to us.

"Hey, let's go!" She grabbed my arm and we ran towards the dark alleys of Gangnam.

I was completely shocked by her action. For her short height, she's a fast runner.

"We lost them!" She looked straight into my eyes which flattered me so I looked away fastly.

"Do you wanna grab a snack? I haven't eaten dinner yet, my treat." She said, panting. That was fast.

"Uh, I have no where to go now, so I guess?" I felt her smile. Her face is completely covered with a mask and a cap.

"I know a place here." She walked slowly this time.

Lee Eunbi's POV:

Me and this tall guy went to my favorite café, I'm really craving for macaroons.

You may ask, how did I have the guts to ask that guy out to dinner? Well, dad said to come back after 20 minutes.

"We're here!" I pushed the door opened although that guy's hand was already on the door.

"What do you want? My treat." We chose a place to sat down.

"Macaroons and just water." He left me surprised.

"You like macaroons too? And plus, water? You sure that's all." If he said he wanted the most expensive drink, I would have gladly given it to him, but he chose WATER.

"I love water." He looked at me.

"Okay then," I walked out.

I ordered the food and I checked my phone.

"Your a trainee at that entertainment?" He asked as I sat down.

"Yeah." I avoided eye contact. He kept looking at me, feeling doubt.

"You sure?" He asked.

"Yeah!" I shouted. Making everyone's eyes turn on me. Wow, I'm good at catching everyone's attention.

"So, I heard there's a new boy group debuting at that company." I changed the topic.

"Yeah, that's why I'm getting anxious. Everyone has high expectations of me." I realized that I can't eat because of the mask.

"Hey, this may sound a bit dramatic, but, you don't have to live just for the people who expects you to do your best. You have to live your life man!"

I stared at the macaroons. "These looks so heavenly good."

I realized that he can't remove his mask. Trainees are exposed to the public.

We walked to the company, and to HIS surprise, everyone is gone.

We rode the elevator, trainees are supposed to get off at 4th floor, but I have to go to the 16th floor.

"Goodbye! Thanks for tonight!" I said while holding on the elevator door.

"Thank you too!" He waved with confusion.

I went up to my dad's office. My mom was there reading paperworks and doing all those kind of stuff.

"How was your day?"

"Who did you meet?"

"What did you do?"

The both of them started asking a lot of questions.

"Chill, It was a bit unexpected, I was with Mitzy all day and as I said, there were a lot of projects.
