"Hello Min Young's mom, I am Song Ji An." Ji An respectfully greeted Min Young's mother who still looked very confused.
"Is it true? My dear Min Young. Is it true?" She was asking for confirmation and Ji An knew it from her personal experience that no words would get through her right now. Ji An held her hands, without speaking a single word and brought her towards morgue. Inside a doctor and a nurse who had helped to wash Min Young's body has covered her body all over with white cloth.
Ji An, with Min Young's mother hand with her, walked slowly towards where Min Young was currently resting with both doctor and nurse on her side. Song Ho was also following both of them closely and although he was the first one who contacted her, it seemed she was not in the right state of mind to recognize him or even his voice. After all she was grieving for the loss of her beloved daughter.
Min Young's mother let go Ji An's hands and walked slowly step by step towards her supposedly daughter body. Her hands trembled so badly as if trying to buy more time to hold onto the images that her daughter was still alive. Somewhere in Korea or anywhere will do, as long as not the person in front of her. The doctor stepped and wanted to help to open the white cloth covering the body's face but Ji An stopped him with her eyes and shook her head slowly.
Understanding the whole situation, the doctor stepped back once again. Even though he was in medical industry for so long and had watched life and death everyday, a picture of grieving parents was something he would never be able to get used to. Her every step echoed to the close wall, and every eyes glued to her. Ready to embrace the worse thing that might happen.
With a trembling hand, she slowly uncovered the white cloth covering her daughter's face. Starting from her hair, eyebrows, closed eyes and when she uncovered everything, the realization hit her hard. The reality that she wished would never happen, had happened, right in front of her. She lost her only daughter, her only hope in this lonely world.
She cradled her head and kissed her forehead. She tidied all her hair and took out a hairpin to clip on her fringe. "This is from you. I carry it everywhere because you say I look pretty in this hairpin. And I think, you look prettier in this. I am sorry I am not able to be by your side. It must be lonely for you to be here alone. Mommy sorry, my daughter. I love you, my Min Young" She kept saying the words I love you a few times with tears on her pale cheeks before she finally said,"Let's go, Min Young-ah. Mom will bring you home." Then she looked towards the doctor and nurse to confirm that the body was indeed her daughter and signed the paperwork to bring her daughter home. Back to her rightful place, with her.
Dinner Party
It had been three days since their last encounter. Jun still had no news from Ji An, she did not even show up in his penthouse anymore. 'Did I too harsh to her?' Jun had felt bored his life was going back to normal, without Ji An. But, he could feel there was a gap, a big gaping hole inside his heart. The lonely life that he had before was not as attractive now.
Jun took a glass of champagne from the nearby waiter and took a sip. The dinner party was arranged inside one of the most expensive hotel in Seoul. He heard that the main sponsor was someone new to entertainment industry but he was very passionate about it. Producer Kim was busy entertaining the rest of the investors and the rest of the staff looked like they are enjoying their night. After all, the dinner would be a start of their harsh filming ahead, so they should enjoy it while they can.
Besides some investors, sponsors and staff, Jun also noticed a few supporting actor and actresses already arrived and were busy expanding their network. However, he still couldn't see the main female lead. Even Producer Kim didn't give him any heads-up. He said it would be a wonderful surprise and part of today's main event.
A few of entertainment reporters had come as well and only those reputable one as today event was a closed event. Only those with invitation would be able to attend. There was a space created for all the reporters, with a long table set up and power plug on the maroon carpet. The table had been set up as such with a name card for each of the invited company. Some of the photographers and videographers accompanied the reporters would walk around the ballroom and took a snapshot of pictures. The room was full of influential people, renowned producer as well as famous actor and actresses. The drama would aim for year-end best drama of the year with such amazing line-up.
The room light suddenly turned dim, giving sign to everyone that the dinner was going to start soon. Senior comedian, Yoo Jae Jin had appeared on stage to do ice-breaker and would be the MC of the night. After a few ice-breaking games, with the room full of laughter, finally was the main event. The MC would call the main investors and main female lead, both identity remain hidden from the public and it was highlight of today event.
Even Jun, who was not really paying attention to the event from the beginning, started to show his interest and paid close attention to the stage. The MC kept the tense atmosphere and purposely dragged the introduction of both main stars which causing the reporters to start complaining. Yoo Jae Jin just chuckled and brushed it off.
"And now, today's highlight and main event. I know all reporters have been cursing me behind my back, please do not shake your head, everyone. I remember every one of you. Yes, you reporter Kim sitting at the corner, and you also Reporter Park, please do not pretend to drink wine. Yes, water is good for your health. Much better than wine."
"Now, everyone, please welcome our President Song and the beautiful main female lead, Kim Anna!" Thunderous applause could be heard from around the room. Everyone was so excited with the pair-up. It would be drama from top stars, Lee Jun and Kim Anna. God and Goddess of entertainment industry. A few headlines immediately posted online with the article prepare before hand and the internet had gone crazy after the news announced. A lot of fans had their expectation high with the beautiful pairing for this drama.
Not only the female actress, the main investor also attracted a lot of attention. Young President Song, who had recently taken over the reign of Song Group from his father. By the age of 35, he was one of the youngest CEO who manage to increase company's investment portfolio by 150% within 2 years. All his risky investment turned fruitful and he was renowned as Song Gold Hand. Everything that he touched, literally became gold. Not only about his success and intelligence, he was also famous for being involved in a lot of charity and the most important, he was still single!
Jun's eyes glued on Anna. She was holding President Song's arms during entrance, wearing the limited edition of Christian Dior white silk dress, with a mix of pearls and diamond for her small belt, hugging her small waist nicely. Her long hair was curled tied up into a messy bun, made her look younger and radiant with her red lips inviting people to kiss her. It suited her image as goddess and queen of drama.
'Anna? It's her again. Why is it you? Why are you keep appearing in my life?' Jun was dumbfounded. If he knew the drama would involve Anna, he would reject it. His gaze turned colder when he met Anna's eyes from the stage. Anna was shocked looking at Jun's cold gaze but she was maintaining her regal attitude as she was currently on stage, with all cameras flashing towards her.
Yoo Jae Jin waited until the applause died down and went to invite the main male lead,"Since our goddess is already on stage, we should call our god to accompany our goddess. What do you think, everyone?"
The crowd was literally cheering and kept chanting Jun's name. "Lee Jun! Lee Jun!"
With a forced smile, Jun took the steps towards the stage, one by one, without averting his gaze from Anna.
