"Mikaela!" I shout out of joy. I come to hug her
"Goodness! Julia! You look so thin!" She replied touching my skinny body. She is very radiating with her immense model body. She is so tall and I feel so tiny next to her. She is gorgeous.
We take a seat on the sofa and she looks giantly on it especially in this small pg. I am feeling a little bit embarrassed but I know she won't mind. She is living in a happy house with her fiancé who was her photographer. How I wish I will find same person with same interests as me. Every person in the same generation of mine is already taken, get married and even get children. I may be the only one without soulmate. But when I get to know about the BTS, being alone and single was not matters since I have their music and kindness through their videos. I love them as if they are all my boyfriend. Lol.

"So you're still loving these guys" She confirms. I'm even fantasized over them if you could read in my mind I'm murmuring.
" Yeah of course" I reply giving her a glass of soda.
"No thank you. I'm on diet." She's on diet? But she looks already amazing though. I give her chips.
"How's everything here?" She asked.
"Well." I say smiling at her sarcastically.
"Really? Nothing special to tell?"
" Such as?" I laugh.
" Boyfriend. Fiancé. No no. Not fiancé, looking at your house" She teases me. I reply I have no boyfriend nor fiancé but I say her I hope to have one someday. We were talking too much that we didn't see the clock is already 9pm. I ask if she should leave due to her work and home duty but she has already asked her future husband if she can make a sleepover with me tonight without so longtime no see. I really appreciate what she did. And thankful for her fiancé.
"And your work?" I ask.
"Don't worry, I already alarmed them that I'm in a visit of a friend here in London. They accept. They are good persons. I love working with them." Happy to hear that. Mikaela is living in Liverpool. She came here by airplane. It's easy for her because she is now becoming a wealthy woman. I am so grateful that she did that just to meet me.
"Apart from that, I have seen a promoting advertisement about fashion week this coming Sunday that's why I came here too and I'd like to invite you." Oh my God why inviting me, an ugly skinny redhead girl.
"Why? I thought you were here not for work."
"It's not about work. I just want to watch the fashion parade. No need invitation because everyone there knows me!" Wow what a confident person!
A little bit of silence in the room. Everyone looks at her phone. She is texting. I'm checking updates.
BTS songs chant lowly. Mikaela doesn't matter. She knows some lyrics. She even sings. During our conversation, she asked me why I love these guys and why now that I'm an almost adult fangirling to them? I told her that it was hard for me when I was a teenager with no family no person to take my custody. I have to do everything on my own such as paying basic things such as foods and school materials. Only important cost needs like fees are of the government where I was orphaned. Therefore, during high school time and college, I have no much times for that before, I was looking for small jobs like volunteering, servant to help me supply some books and necessary tools for my studies. I was a hard-working kind of person. Mikaela cut me when I said: "Even now you are!" We were laughing so hard. I told her that I'm doing this like a repeating session of my childhood and youth. To recover them up. It's like a discovery for me before my thirties. I met something new from usual. The fact that they are Korean was like something impossible for me at first, but I get to know them and it was very special. She was amazed by it. I told her she doesn't have to because she is now more successful. Her life is enviable. She is well-known model and got handsome caring man and next to it a rich close to be millionaire lifestyle. She just pushed a little laugh hearing me saying that. I don't know why. I asked her about her ongoing life but she just said it's pretty cool. And it's much more than cool because on her social media, she has visited many places and countries for her work. She has already went to Paris, Lisbone, and Italy in which she showed out her splendid body for bikinis promotion. Everyone around me is awesome she said. I'm so happy for her. Our talk lasts too many hours. I didn't expect her to sleep here so I haven't prepare anything, there are nothing good to serve her. So I just ordered pizzas. We are eating it when I realize that I should share her my feeling when I got selected for the BTS show here. But I hesitate because I always talked about myself before, I asked her to tell her story but she didn't develop. What should I do? I laughed in my mind because I'm so excited to tell it to her.
"You have something to want to tell me?"
Ok if she insists. Lol.
" Well I had been chosen for a BTS concert with fans. " She is eager to know more. And let me to pursue my talk.
"I have played without thinking that luck would please me that much. I followed every steps of the game and just let it like that without much interests. There are thousands and thousands of candidates and I was lucky to be part of this! " I don't know why but Mikaela is really focused on my story that I feel so much love comes from her.
"You know what girl? You're such a lucky girl! I'm so glad to hear that."

~BTS-Jimin& V / Friend~

Both of us have never meet to each other since graduation two years ago. But we managed to talk a little bit on internet even it wasn't like everyday. We talked once in a month. Sharing news and intimacies. She was once venting about her fiancé that she suspected him from cheating but she never confirmed about that until now. I talked about a guy that I met here during my training too. But we both never dated. Perhaps I'm not good at love. We video called sometimes when one wants some advice. Maybe it's because we are growing and money becomes our priorities? I don't know. We have never talked like best friends used to do. Like every seconds or minutes. I don't know why but this relationship has never been broken and always worked even with only few words. One can feel what the other feel without reciting any words. I know she needs me and she knows I need her more. Even we have chosen different paths, we are still together in our hearts. I know too that she has found many people around her new world but she never forgets about me and that's the most important thing that I will always cherish. This reminds me a little of the Bangtanies history and point of view. They've been together for almost years and years and always found ways to stick the bond.

"I'm sorry but I can't accept your proposition this Sunday." I say almost like struggling to sort out these words because I know she only wants what is good for me.
" Why?" She asks. Throwing her back and facing me. We are sleeping on the same bed because I have no more room and another bed. We are like coming back at young age when doing sleepover.
"I-I-I-I" "I'm afraid I won't be welcomed there" She cuts me. Maybe she knows what I mean.
"But why you say that? In your coming show then you are welcomed?" She talks about the BTS Concert in which I gained a free ticket.
" I don't know. Maybe." I say tilting my eyes.
"Ok. It's ok. When you're finally already to face public like mine warn me. I know the place where I will bring you this time." She's laughing then yawning. We become more sleepy due to the conversation.
We are laughing. The BTS lightstick enlightens the bedroom. I was falling asleep first, then she joined me.
