"Is this even necessary?!"

I asked Joohyun-unnie as I look at myself in the mirror, wearing a face mask.

"Just trust me!"She said as she plopped down on my bed.

"I look so scary, I'm even scaring myself!"

"Have you ever even tried wearing a face mask before?"

I shook my head as I look behind my back where my bed is located.

"Have you told, Mr. Lee and Mrs. Shin yet?"She questioned me, I nodded and remembered their reactions when I first told them I have a date with a boy.

(Women in Korea don't change their surnames when they get married that's why I adressed Jiyoung's mother as Mrs. Shin :D )

"They were hysterical, I felt like I was being interviewed by policemen because they bombarded me with a bunch of questions."I chuckled to myself.

I look myself in the mirror and groaned.

"How long do I have to wear this?!"

"15-20 minutes, another complain from that mouth of yours and I'm not gonna help you with your makeup."Joohyun firmly commanded.

I just nodded with a pout on my face as I admired the stickers and photos I placed all over the corners of my mirror.










"Don't move!"

Joohyun-unnie angrily said as she struggled to do my maskara.

"It feels funny!"I talked back.

She clicked her tongue with a frown as she continued doing my maskara

As soon as she was done, she placed the maskara brush thingy down and reached for the lip stick.

"HEY!" I grabbed her wrist, stopping her from having her grip on the peice of cosmetic.

"What?"

"I—I want a lighter shade."

Joohyun sighed and grabbed the lipstick with lighter shade, She spreaded the lipstick all over my lips.

She placed the lid back then reached for the lip gloss.

"I honestly don't know the difference between lipstick, lip gloss, lip balm and lip tint."

Joohyun chuckled at my honest statement.

"You sound older than me."She muttered while placing lip gloss on my lips.

After that she put blush on my face one last time and finished my makeup.

"There you go... Now look at you."She turned my body towards the mirror as we both stood up.

I was amazed of how... Pretty I looked.

For the first time in years, I felt pretty.

"Wow..."I laughed and scanned myself on the mirror, up and down.

"You're 10 years younger than me yet you've beaten me in having a boyfriend first."Joohyun scoffed and placed her arm around me.

"Yeah, that's the question."

"What's the question?"She faced me.

"You're beautiful, intelligent, nice and friendly yet you still don't have a boyfriend and you're slowly turning into a hag."

"That's because I hate men and you know that."She laughed and I did the same.

Our laughs died off when we both stared at ourselves in the mirror.
