I smile at my counselor and even though I had to swallow down all the tears and cries I had built up for talking to my father figure, I made a choice. I ruined myself and can't go back to how it should've been. I should've stayed in school and actually tried to make it better but I ran. I ran from everything because of that church but I shouldn't make excuses. I'll get my high set and dream for a prosperous future that will be ten times harder to achieve now. I'm officially a drop out, going to get a high set.
My mother, my counselor and myself walk outside as my mom had started to joke with my counselor for my reckless driving on my way here. "She almost got hit from behind and I was so afraid that she'd get hit! She could be so reckless when she drives on the road!" She exclaimed to my counselor and we all laughed while I made a demonstration on how she held onto the door and arm rest for stability. "She was like this when that happened and oh man she always does it when I'm driving." I laugh as me and my mom prepare to leave.
My counselor laughs with a bright smile and the atmosphere felt so comforting yet, I knew we all had a different path for myself planned out that makes the atmosphere just a little gloomy. "Alright, I know this isn't the most favorable path for you, (Y/N) but it's something you've chosen and I'll support you no matter what. So don't think that this will be the last time we interact okay? Keep me posted on how you're doing and please, if you ever need anything just ask me." He tells me sincerely as he opens his arms to me and I almost choked on a sob that so badly wanted to come out. I wanted to cry so bad but a choice was made. I hug my counselor and tell him my farewell for I don't know how long it will be for me to see him again.
Time has passed, it was difficult to the point that I almost gave up on just trying to live and prosper for myself and my single mother who's sick with diabetes. Ridiculed and judged for my mistakes as the shadow of my past haunts me for the rest of my life. Job rejection after job rejection and yet I'm still barely surviving. I got my high set and spoke with my counselor about it while sending pictures. I went to college for cosmetology and got the highest degree in a short amount of time. After so many rejections and depriving myself of any fun activities, even from getting in a relationship, I finally got a job. I became a makeup artist after I had done some freelancing work off makeup and the lady who I had interacted with, was actually a makeup artist who worked for the one company I never would have expected her to work for. Big Hit Entertainment.
The company where my seven most loved idols worked and I was actually given the opportunity to work with them. "I can tell when someone works hard to try and make a living, you know? I see it all on your shoulders and face. The work you put in just so you could prosper and I'd like to know more about you while working with you in the same field. Contact me and I'll have you placed in a spot at my job." She smiled at me with her pretty upside down crescents and shining smile that I felt like my (e/c) eyes would be blinded any second.
I teared up and hugged the lady tightly, even if she was only 2 years older than me and I'm only 20. The raven haired woman was shocked but smiled lightly and hugged me back. "Thank you so much! How could I ever repay you! This job is so high ranked and oh my gosh, just-just! Thank you so so so damn much!" I cried to her as the lady patiently rubbed my back to comfort me. "It's okay! Just no more tears okay? Why don't we go shopping? I need to buy clothes either way for a company party." She smiles at me and I nod with a sniff as I clear my face of the tears I've shed.
"Yes, please! I'm (F/N) (L/N) by the way and how about you?" I ask as she looks at me with her brown eyes before entering the living room of my apartment. "My name is Yeon-Hee Tan but just call me Yeon-Hee." She smiles at me brightly before my mom comes into view. "Oh, another costumer?" My mom asks as her tired eyes look over us and I smile lightly as my (h/c) hair bounces with my nodding. "Yup. But she's offering me a job!" I say happily and my mom smiles lightly but I knew she really was happy for me. "That's great! Don't work too hard and remember to take care of yourself. Now go ahead and hang out so I could sleep in peace." She says in a teasing manner and Yeon-Hee and I laugh with her. "Okay I won't be long. Love you!" I say before we head out and take Yeon-Hee's car.
Once we arrived, Yeon-Hee's eyes got so shiny and she looked at me with sparkling eyes. "I'm going to spoil you so good you'd get sick of me." She says and I laugh as I shake my head at her. "Go ahead and do me a whole body make over!" I say as she squeals and drags me to designer clothing stores. We walk to the dresses and she picks out a dress with a heart top and an open rose tailed skirt with black, purple, and gold coloring. The whole dress was black with the bottom half of the skirt covered in purple flowers as a black see through material drapes over it with gold linings.
"This will definitely look good on you! Omg I already see it on you perfectly!" She squeals and practically shoves the dress into the carry bag excitedly and I laugh while scratching my (s/c) cheeks. "Isn't it a bit too expensive?" I ask and she makes a zipping motion on her painted red lips. "Zip it and let me spoil you." She grumbles at me and I do exactly that. I think I have to throw out all the old hand me downs after Yeon-hee's done with me.
We tried out so many clothes and she got so many that I wonder if her bank account is pretty much infinitely supplied with money or something? I smile at her until I get a text message from my bestfriend, Chrystal. I unlock my phone as we continue to walk around the mall. 'Hey girl! Wanna hang out right now?? My mom isnt home so we could go out anywhere since my brother's don't mind me hanging out with you :)' I read the message and smile lightly. Wondering what that means? Well, her mom and I got on the wrong foot and since I have a curvy hourglass body shape, she thinks I sleep with many men. Funny thing is that I haven't slept with anyone at all. I didn't even date.
"Who's that?" Yeon-hee asks as she peaks over my shoulder to the picture of Chrystal(girl above). "Oh this is my long time best friend, Chrystal. She wants to hang out." I say as I start to reply back. 'Sorry, can't right now since I'm hanging out with a new friend of mine that's going to help me get a job as a makeup artist.' I type back before closing my phone and putting the lilac colored Galaxy 9 in my back pocket. Yeon-hee smiles and grabs my hand to rush towards the shoe store. "Let's pick some cute heels for you and go to the spa afterwards okay? Remember, my treat!" She brightly smiles at me and honestly I think I almost fell for her. I laugh to myself and nod to Yeon-hee, who eagerly drags me to the shoe store.
Shoes done with and now we're getting a massage by handsome men. 'This is pure heaven oh my goodness this feels amazing.' I sigh in content as I try my best not to moan on how amazing the massaging feels. "(Y/n)?" Yeon-hee asks out of no where in particular and I hum for her to continue. "You like BTS right?" She asks and I realized that we haven't even mentioned them once. "Oh yeah I adore them! They're my idols!" I say happily just thinking of the boys and she chuckles. "Well that's good, now I know you'll definitely love your job because I texted Hitman Bang and hes really happy to have another makeup artist. He wants to meet you at the party and talk to you before introducing BTS to you." She says and I could hear the smile on her pretty peach face. "Oh my gosh, Yeon-hee seriously thank you so much! This is honestly one of the best things to happen to me." I tear up and sniff so I won't shed anymore happy tears.
Yeon-hee laughs and motions to the man that she's going to lay on her back. "Why are you crying now? Don't worry your pretty little head and let things good happen to you because I can tell you deserve it." She speaks sweetly to me and I flip over as tears shed onto the towel I start to hold to my face. "Does this mean I'll have to wear the fancy outfit I got today?" I sniff and turn to look at Yeon-hee who's smiling back at me with sparkles in her dark brown eyes. "Of course! You'll be the prettiest girl there!" She says happily with her black hair everywhere and I laugh at her enthusiasm. "Well? What are we gonna do next??" I ask her and she gives me a big smirk. "I'm gonna make you so sexy, that I'll have to question my sexuality for a lifetime." She says before taking us out of the spa and to her car.
