“Ga Eul-ah! So, to whom did you give your chocolates?” Jan Di peeved as she and Ga Eul sat by a table inside the porridge shop. There were currently no customers and everything was in place so they had nothing to do.
Jan Di’s question caught her off guard but she wasn’t eager to tell her friend the truth. She only smiled sadly. “Well… I gave it to…” She was hesitating whether to tell Jan Di the truth or not. Jan Di would surely think that she was in love with one of the two most prominent playboys of F4 if she told the truth. It would definitely make Jan Di panic beyond reason. “I gave it to a little boy!” Ga Eul lied.
“Ga Eul-ah! You could have given it to me instead!” The owner of the porridge house complained but Jan Di and Ga Eul completely ignored him.
“Huh?” Jan Di looked at her questioningly. “A little boy?”
Ga Eul nodded. “Well, I didn’t have a Valentine since Sun-pyo broke up with me so I gave the chocolates to a little boy instead…” Ga Eul explained, still with a sad expression on her face. “He was a troublesome little boy though…” She added.
“Troublesome? More troublesome than Goo Jun-Pyo?” Jan Di asked.
“Aniyo…” Ga Eul smiled and hit Jan Di playfully. “A different kind of troublesome… Hmm… He’s a troublesome little boy because I don’t know what his problem is… I don’t know why he’s living the way he does… Maybe he didn’t receive so much love from when he was really young… I don’t know but I really want to know why. I want to understand him… But unfortunately he refuses to give me a chance… He turned me down, so I gave him chocolates instead.” Ga Eul further explained.
Jan Di had a bummed out look on her face after Ga Eul explained. “A little boy turned you down???”
Ga Eul simply smiled at her friend’s remark. “Yah! Geum Jan Di! I didn’t know Jun-Pyo’s stupidity was infectious! You shouldn’t hang out with him too much.” Ga Eul playfully said and laughed at her friend. Despite the hurt she received from Yi Jung, she was still smiling. There was a glint of sadness in her eyes but still… on her lips was a radiant smile.
Unbeknownst to them, someone was listening to their conversation all along. ‘A little boy eh?’ He thought. He finally decided to show himself and make an entry inside the porridge shop. He slowly entered and shop and smiled radiantly at the two ladies.
“Yi Jung-sunbae!” Jan Di called out in surprise while the owner of the porridge shop simply stared at Yi Jung dumbfounded. He was thinking something about ‘a prince from Andromeda’.
“Annyong hasaeyo…” He greeted with a charming smile. He especially walked towards Ga Eul and smiled at her. “Hello, Ga Eul.” He greeted then turned to Jan Di and greeted her as well.
Upon seeing young master Yi Jung, Ga Eul’s smiling expression turned into a hateful scowl. “What are you doing here?” She asked in an obviously annoyed tone. She turned her back from Yi Jung and went to the counter instead. She preferred busying herself re-arranging the porridge bowls than facing Yi Jung. She thought that it was a more productive chore.
With Ga Eul walking away, Yi Jung faced Jan Di instead. “Actually, I’m here to invite you two to watch my exhibit.” Yi Jung explained and handed Jan Di two invitations to his pot exhibit. “I expect you two to show up so please don’t disappoint me, okay?” He said. He took one last lingering glance at Ga Eul. She didn’t even look back at him. “Ga Eul-ah… You’ll come, right?” He wanted to make sure but it was as if Ga Eul didn’t hear anything. Yi Jung had no choice but to leave the invitations to Jan Di instead before he took his leave.
Jan Di stood holding the invitations with a baffled expression on his face. ‘Yi Jung-sunbae sure is acting weird…’ She thought. She would not have been so surprised if Ji Hoon-sunbae or maybe Goo Jun-pyo suddenly showed up at the porridge shop. But Yi Jung was someone who had no enough reason to come. Furthermore, he could have just given the invitations to her at school.
When Yi Jung was out of the porridge shop, the owner was finally able to recover from being star struck and immediately stared at the invitations on Jan Di’s hands. He stared at them as if they were such precious treasures. “Did he leave an invitation for me too?” He asked excitedly.
“Aniyo… He only gave me two… One for Ga Eul, I guess…” Jan Di replied which made the owner’s shoulder hang low in defeat.
“Boss, don’t worry, you can have my invitation…” Ga Eul smiled as she spoke. Her statement suddenly made the owner lit up with a smile.
“Really?! For real?!” He asked to which Ga Eul nodded.
“I’m sure Goo Jun-Pyo would be there so Jan Di should definitely come.” Ga Eul said.
Jan Di went towards her friend with a worried expression on her face. “Ga Eul-ah… Are you okay? Why won’t you come?” She asked with a pout. She wanted Ga Eul to accompany her so as not to spend so much time with Goo Jun-Pyo who annoyed the hell out of her.
“I’m okay, Jan Di… I just don’t want to come, that’s all. Besides, I don’t have a dress to wear and I still have to look for another part time job…” It was true that she didn’t want to come and that she needed to find another part time job. However, on not having a dress… The image of the dress which Yi Jung bought for her instantly flashed inside her mind. She sighed and smiled sadly.
It was a one- time deal, a one-time play-pretend where she and Yi Jung acted as lovers in revenge to the guy who broke her heart. She didn’t expect that such a one-time deal would forever leave a mark inside her heart. She still remembered how Yi Jung looked so dashingly handsome and cool that night. But as they say, even fairytales end. Hers wasn’t even a fairytale and it definitely didn’t have a fairytale ending.
To Be Continued…

Unable to tolerate Yi Jung’s presence anymore, Ga Eul abruptly stopped walking and breathed out a deep sigh. Then, she stared intently at Yi Jung who stared back at her questioningly. “Young Master Yi Jung, will you please stop this nonsense. You don’t have any obligation to help me find a part time job. I know that I am already indebted to you for helping me take revenge against Sun-Pyo but I hope you just leave me alone.” She said.
Yi jung was dumbfounded. She was right. Why was he doing this in the first place? She was just one ordinary commoner who worked her ass off to earn money. Why was he even bothering to convince the hard-headed girl to come his exhibit when she didn’t want to come? The answers never came to him though. He just felt a gut-feel telling him that Ga Eul must be at his exhibit.
