end.

Dahyun stared at her reflection on the mirror. She made sure that her appearance was perfect. Not a single wrinkle could be found on her attire, light makeup covering her face and her deep blue hair falls perfectly pass her shoulder.

She took one last glance at the mirror before she slinged her bag on her shoulder, and then she headed out, hailing a cab to the tv broadcasting session.

The girl arrived 15 minutes early, and she used it all up to practice her lines. It's her first day as a weathercaster, so she really wanted it to be as perfect as possible. And there she was, mumbling the lines until the clock strikes eight, meaning the korean news were about to broadcast and that she had 10 minutes left before the weather forecast.

She took nervous steps inside the set and stood beside the screen. She did some breathing exercise to keep herself composed. And as the director cued, Dahyun said her lines that she practiced while her hands were busy pointing at the parts on the screen. It all went well.

Nayeon was running late to her office, and she did not bother to care about it. Why would she? Her father is the president of JTBC broadcasting company hence explains how nonchalant the young woman is.

She entered the building with a cup of coffee in her hand, walking as if the way to her office was covered by a red carpet (it always is for Im Nayeon.)

And she abruptly stopped, capturing the attention of people in the lobby, wondering why Nayeon would stop in the middle of the way.

Nayeon laid her eyes on a certain pale girl who was walking out of the building. She never met her before. She's hundred percent sure. She's beautiful. Nayeon thought. (Nayeon never call any other girl beautiful)

"Uhm, Miss?" the said girl waved her hands before Nayeon's eyes, trying to gain her attention.

Nayeon snapped out of her thought, she could feel heat running up her cheeks as she blurted a quick 'sorry' before take quick footsteps, leaving the girl confused.

Dahyun just shrugged it off.

Nayeon doesn't feel like focusing on her work today. Her mind kept on wandering to the girl she met hours prior. She mentally scolded herself for not asking her name. It's funny how a stranger could make the Im Nayeon lose her confidence.

"Nayeon, you okay?" her secretary, Jihyo asked.

"Yeah." Nayeon laid her head on the office desk.

"It doesn't look like it." Jihyo argued.

Nayeon didn't give her secretary any answer so Jihyo added:

"Is it about the girl at the lobby?"

At that, Nayeon quickly lifted her head up, her eyes literally gleaming of fire.

"How did you know? Oh, screw that! Do you know her? Do you have her number? What's her name? What does she work as?" Nayeon bombarded the younger with questions.

"Easy, girl. One by one. Which one do you want to know the most?"

"Her name!"

"Okay, her name is Kim Dahyun." Jihyo answered.

"What does she work as?"

"Why do you have so much interest in this pale girl?" Jihyo was surprised. Nayeon was never interested in anyone who works under the same roof and suddenly she's asking about a stranger.

"Just answer me." Nayeon rolled her eyes, annoyed.

"Fine. Today's her first day as a weathercaster."
