Tae’s pov
I ran after Ara, she was running fast. “Ara please stop and hear me out “I shouted, then she turned and faced me.
“How dare you! You never told me you slept with Young hee before! You never told me you guys had an affair “She broke into tears.
“Ara, it a set up. I never did that. I swear with my life. I never. Have hated Young hee with p@ssion so you can’t expect me to sleep with her. Am innocent Ara ” I tried to defend myself.
“I don’t believe you! Just leave me alone “She said and walked away.
It like my life has ended here. That btch! Tears too was strolling down from my eyes. Have never had s*x before.
I had really wish for Ara to be my first. Young hee is really desperate. She’s gonna pay for this.
I know she’s not happy about I and Ara’s relationship. I looked at Ara, she had stop and turned to me.
“Has she forgiven me? “I said to my self as she walk towards me.
She stood in front of me and raised my shirt up at the back, then roll up the left sleeve and smiled.
Why is she laughing and checking my body? She grabbed my arm and dragged me to the cafeteria.
The whole cafeteria is upside down surrounding Young hee who was showing them the pictures .
She saw Ara dragging me and her eyes were widened but tried to compose herself.
“So? Are you guys fighting? I bet you are “She chuckled lightly.
“You think you can separate us with this silly picture of yours. You think you won right? Well you failed “She grabbed the phone from her.
“Tae here isn’t the one in here, this is an edited picture. The person here is having a tattoo at the arm and also at his back while Tae don’t.” She spoke and showed the picture to me and others.
My head snapped, like I was happy Ara knew I can never do this. She believed in me. Young hee was speechless, just blinking her lashes.
“You should be the shameful fool here. Sleeping with men around. You’re really a desperate fool. Have never seen a woman forcing herself on a human.
And there’s someone who loves you and keep coming to you but you keep pushing him away. You’re the most stupidest person on earth “Ara said and kssed me on my l!ps.
“I love you so much Tae, and no one will separate us. Not even the desperate dev!l here. I trust you with my whole heart. ” I looked at Ara, couldn’t talk.
I just smiled and kissed her back affectionately. “Thanks for trusting me Ara “I said lovely.
“You welcome sweetheart ” She took my hand and we walked out of the cafeteria.
Ara’s pov
I knew it was a lie, everything was edited. I got to know that the man in there has a tattoo while Tae doesn’t.
Young hee, she will never give up.
Her plans are gonna fail one after the other. Lee loves her but she kept pushing him away.
I knew that cause Lee had told me one day, yes we are friends but not that close. He told me about loving young hee for a long time.
But she’s pushing him away. Someone loves her but she is here, chasing a man who has a girl friend and doesn’t love her.
Soo Bin’s pov
I rushed to the cafeteria to see what was happening, but Ara wasn’t there again neither Tae too.
Won’t Young hee stop this awful things hers? She was still standing, the students were murmuring, pointing and eyeing her.
She saw me but I hissed and went back to class. Have never seen a girl with bad attitudes like her.
“Did you see them “Seo asked
“No, I think they left before I got there “I replied.
A teacher came in, it time for another paper. I left Seo not without giving him a kiss.
I got to class and met the teacher supervising us, few seconds Ara came in and sat beside me.
“Where did you go? I came to the cafeteria after I heard what happened “I asked.
“You won’t believe Young hee tried to blackmail Tae. She edited a picture of Tae and her sleep together ” Ara replied.
“What?! That fool! How did you know it wasn’t Tae? “I asked curiously.
“The man has a tattoo on the arm and at his back but Tae didn’t ”
“Wow! You have an eagle eye. It a good thing you trust Tae “I said and immediately the teacher asked us to keep quiet and began distributing the exam papers.
The questions were simple, so it made me finish on time.
Young hee’s pov
I walked into the class angrily, like seriously angry, embarrassed and disappointed.
Ara! Ara! Ara! Was ringing in my head. She spoiled the plan again. How the heck didn’t I know about this? The tattoo.
Fuck! This is a big disgrace. I won’t stop. Fine I didn’t want Tae again but Ara now. I will deal with her for taking what was supposed to be mine.
“Miss, you are just coming to class? Now go take a sit and start your exam “T teacher shouted but I hissed.
I glanced at Ara but she wasn’t looking up, only Soo bin. Her case is different.
Rhee’s pov
I finished my papers and stood up, summit the paper to the teacher and walk out.
I got Ha rin’s class, and waited for her to come out. She did and was surprised to see me.
We couldn’t make it on our first date cause something happened. I watch her come out of the class.
“Ha rin, can I see you? ” I asked, as she clutch her books tight to her chest.
“Yes”
“Okay, am sorry I cut the date off the other day “I apologized.
“It nothing, it in the past now ” she said smiling.
“Okay, I want us to set another date “I blurted.
“Huh, another date? Like are you kidding me?” she asked batting her lashes.
“Yes, just to make it up to you ”
“Hmm… Okay, so when and what time? ”
” This saturday by 3 pm ” I replied.
“Okay ”
Seo’s pov
“Like seriously? That girl got to be kidding me!” I said when Tae explained everything to me.
“That bitch is really cr@zy I must say Seo ”
“Why don’t you get her expel? ” I suggested
“Expel? No, not yet.. There’s something I need about that girl. She’s evil “Tae growled.
“It okay, just forget about everything that happened today ”
Ara’s pov
I walk with Soo bin going to the park, “You will be checking the mall today Ara? “Soo bin asked and I nodded.
“Yeah, I need to check if the workers are doing well and if they need anything ” I replied.
“Okay, let’s get going ” we got to the park and saw Young hee about to enter her car.
I hissed and looked away “That fool is really bent in dealing with you Ara “Soo whispered.
“She won’t succeed ” I replied back.
“Look she’s coming here again, what’s she gonna do again ”
I turned and saw her coming, she got to us and faced me specially.
“Don’t think you are winning Ara, let me you this. I won’t stop until I see you out of Tae’s life ” She said.
I scoffed. “Seriously? You’re really acting dev!lish all because of Tae “I said.
Young hee’s pov
“I don’t fcking care! ” I screamed.
“You know what? ” She replied.
“What? ”
“Don’t try anything worst, don’t try separating I and Tae cause what God has joined together…”
“Let no man put asunder “Soo bin completed the words.
“So don’t try any fcking thing ” She whispered and stepped back.
Huh?
She got to into my car with Soo bin and drove out of thung hee’s pov
“So don’t try any fucking thing ” She whispered and stepped back.
Huh?
She got to into my car with Soo bin and drove out of the school.
I stood there saying nothing, I got into my car too and drove home. I pray I don’t meet Lee.
Soo Bin’s pov
I waved Ara bye and entered my dad’s house, we had packed in with him weeks back.
“Soo bin ! ” Dad said and hugged me.
“Dad, where’s mom? ” I asked
“She went went out to buy some things “Dad replied.
“Okay, I need to change my uniform ”
I walk to my room and changed into a black top and purple skirt.
Ara’s pov
My phone rang and I took it, “Hello baby” I giggled.
Young hee can never ever separate us. Not even the devil itself.
“Babe! Can we go out tonight? ” He asked.
“Hmm…. Yes” I answered.
“Okay, I will pick you by 4 pm “He said and hung up.
I sighed and continued with my lunch, the ear problem woman hasn’t been here for weeks now.
I wonder how she’s doing now in the hospital. Am the only one at home. I guess I have to go to the mall to kill this boredom here.
……………….
I got dressed and wore my brown sandal, took my car key and drove out of the house. I texted mom telling her that am on way to the mall.
Reaching the mall, some of the workers came out and collected my bag. I got to the office and rest back first.
The receptionist came with a woman, she looks familiar, wow! Model Ha eun! In my mall?
“Good afternoon ma’am “I greeted with a pleasant smile.
“Good afternoon too, how are you? “She asked.
“Am fine, I never expect you in my mall ”
“Oh yes! I came here to order for some clothes, when I heard your mall is rye best place to go ”
“Yes, so can I take you to where you can select the clothes? ” I asked, politely.
“Yeah, your staffs should have taken me there but I want you “She said, smiling.
I smiled back and we both stood up. We got to the women section. I showed her where the gowns are, the tops, the skirt and the shoes.
She selected some and paid the money, we waved ourselves bye.
……………..
4pm…..
I got out of the office without my car, I had told Tae to come pick me up at the mall. One of the staffs had took my car home.
“You look beautiful today” Tae said giving me a kss.
“Thank baby, you look sweet today too “I replied.
“Awwn… Thanks. Guess where we are going? ”
“I can’t guess, hmm… To the beach? ”
“Nope, we are going to AM industry. ”
“Huh? What are we gonna do there? “I arched my brow.
“At least to see how the industry is doing ” He shrugged.
“Doing? ” I scoffed. “You know you can be cunning sometimes ”
“Am serious, let’s just go. I know you haven’t been there for months cause as a trainee have never seen you there except a day but you didn’t take too much time before you left ”
“Really? G0sh! ”
“So no complaints please ”
“Fine ”
I got into his car and we drove to the industry, the wind blew my hair when I came out of the car.
The industry hasn’t change a bit, I entered.
The people there were bowing, I greeted them and we took the elevator to the fifth floor. Where the trainees are.
Opening the door, we saw about 10 young teens in the room, dancing. Some were far away singing with their headphones on.
They turned and stopped whatever they were doing and faced us.
“Good afternoon Kim Ara!” A pretty girl greeted and I returned the greet.
“I heard Ara is your girlfriend Tae” A boy asked.
“Yeah, she is. Ain’t I lucky? “He smiles and held my waist.
“What a perfect match! ”
“Where are Jae, Seo and Rhee or you guys came alone? ” Another boy asked.
“Yes, we came alone.” Tae answered.
“Ae cha, your left leg is okay now right? ” Tae asked and the girl nodded.
“Yes, I can dance again “She answered lifting the left leg up and placed it back on the ground.
What happened to her leg? Maybe she has an injury.
I suddenly wanted to ease my self, I took an excuse and walk out of the room. I bumped into someone and apologized.
“Keep the apology fool “The person said and I looked up to see Young hee’s mother I think.
She was glaring at me. “Mom.. I can’t… “Young hee showed up.
What are they doing here?
“Oh.. Lover girl is here. What are you doing here anyway? ” She asked and stared at her.
Doesn’t she knows that I owned this industry with my brother?
“Well, it my industry and I should be asking you what are you doing here “I asked, folding my hands.
She stared at me and I stared back. “Well I came to see my brother “She finally said.
“Your brother? ”
“Yes, he’s one of the trainees. So are you gonna send him away?” She said, sarcastically.
“Well I didn’t say that. I never knew you had a sibling. ” I was trying to be polite.
“The trainees are in the last room in the corridor there. You can go there and check if your brother is one of them “I directed and left before she say anything
I got to the restroom and eased my self.
Young hee’s pov
I got to the room, the first person I saw was Tae. He was laughing with the boys. I smiled and entered immediately after my mom.
My brother turned and saw me, he came giving mom a hug then I. I was still staring at Tae.
His face was red. He never expect me to show up in here. Well I didn’t come for him, I came for my brother.
“Sister, How are you doing today? ” My brother asked.
“Am good, as long as am here “I replied rubbing his hair.
“Mom, did you bring anything for me? ”
Yes dear, I bought rice cakes for you “Mom answered and drew the polythene up.
My brother grabbed it and grinned, he loves food so much.
Ara walked in, our eyes met and I rolled my eyes. “Sister, Ara is a nice girl. I like her ”
I scoffed, “Really? That’s nice. We will be going now. Just came to check on you ” I said and stood up.
Mom glanced at me, telling me to sit back but I declined and went outside. Staying with Ara is like something else to me.
Ara’s pov
We left the industry after seeing the managing director. He was doing well with his work.
………………
Fast forward. ?
Three weeks later………
The exams were over, no trouble from young hee. Everything went smoothly.
It like Yoo nah and Young hee had a fight cause they didn’t even talk to each other till we collected our results.
My results were excellent same as Soo bin, Seo and Tae too.
The graduation was fantastic. We sang and danced till we were tired.
I and Tae relationship had gone smoothly. By next month we will become a full trainee in WILL Music Entertainment and AM industry for six months.
We are going to London first for three months then come back to Korea.
………………………
I was packing my clothes into my bag, when my phone rang. It was Soo bin.
“Hey girlfriend ”
“Ara! You won’t believe this “She sounded like someone who is panicking.
“What? What’s wrong ”
“Young hee got into an accident! ”
“What?! ”
Young hee accident? How come?
