I know I have a lot of stories that are ongoing right now and I haven’t really been diligent in updating them. So sorry about that. I just really have a lot on hand now. And different ideas keep popping in and out of my head.
Jiyong was wandering all over the town. Doing research on the different boutiques he could pass by. But this wasn’t the main reason. He was out looking for any bank or lending company that would lend their business money. He has been doing this all week with every single free time he had. He was now starting to feel the toll it has taken on his body as he literally dragged his feet to the door of their apartment.
He shared his apartment his with his best friend Seungri and Seungri’s long time girlfriend CL. The three of them have friends his elementary years. They all started this fashion boutique that catered to different styles of fashion and even rare and collectible fashion items.
But lately the new trends in marketing and the emergence of new competitions near their shop along with the current economic conditions have it very hard for them to keep up with the market. They were feeling that the boutique was slowly going out of business. But the said boutique was very important to the three of them especially for Jiyong. He gave everything he had to put this business up. Not to mention that fashion was his love.
He had tried every possible way he could think off even up to selling some of his collector’s items shoes, accessories but they still were not enough. And up to now there no lending company or bank willing to lend them any money.
Jiyong plopped himself on the cushion closest to the door not even bothering to remove his shoes. And he even had OCD. He turned over ran his fingers over his messy hair and stared at the mosaic ceiling.
He sighed in defeat he could no longer think of any other way but to ask his father for help. Out of the three of them his family had the better standing financially speaking. But, he and his father were not in great terms ever since he chose to follow his love fashion rather than running their software business.
He had to swallow his pride and ask his father to loan him money which he will pay as soon as he can. He grabbed the phone and dialed his father’s number.
“yoboseyo?” a woman with a sweet voice from the other line said.
“ah yoboseyo, can I talk to Mr. Kwon please” Jiyong says politely.
“May I know who is on the other line please?” the woman asks again.
Jiyong sighs he knows this is protocol but he really doesn’t like introducing himself.
“can you tell him it’s Jiyong” Jiyong simply answers.
He could hear the woman from the other line release a suppressed gasp. He simply rolls his eyes and waits for his father to answer the phone.
“what is it? Do you want me to take you back now?” Came the cold response from the other line that made Jiyong shiver to the bones.
Jiyong might have swallowed his pride to call but he wasn’t a push over.
“No, I just have a business proposition” Jiyong answers back with an air of anonymity.
“go ahead I’m listening” His father answers back with an obvious lack of interest.
“well I want to seek your help in financing a fashion shop, I would pay you back soon enough” Jiyong shortly explains. He bites his lip0s in nervousness as he waits his father’s reply.
“No, it is a useless investment and I don’t want to waste any of my time on it. And neither should you Jiyong” His father replied his a business like tone that pushed Jiyong further,
Jiyong tightens his hold on the phone he wanted to give his dad a piece of his mind right then and there but he controlled himself.
“Thank you for your time” Jiyong swiftly replies. He hangs up even before his father could answer.
Jiyong throws his head back into the cushions. That was it. The only chance they had now was if either CL or Seungri had better luck that he had.
Soon enough Seungri arrive and plopped beside him. Like him he too looked dead tired and sad. He knew Seungri didn’t have any good news too.
“So how was it?” Jiyong managed to ask even though he knew it wasn’t anything good.
Seungri slumped deeper into the cushions.
“Nothing, my grandfather’s lawyer said they can move the maturity date on my trust fund. But they could release it 6 months before I turn 23. That’s like almost a year from now.” Seungri explained breathless.
Jiyong just took a deep breath. He didn’t even want to use the trust fund that was left to Seungri by his grandfather.
“a year is just too long Ri, we would have lost the shop by then” Jiyong says sitting up his face buried in his palms.
“why don’t we just sell the shop? Atleast we could still get some of the money we used to start it?” Seungri suggested.
“we talked about this Seungri. We are not going to sell the shop no matter what” Jiyong sternly answers not even bothering to look at seungri. He was already stressed out enough to deal with arguing with Seungri.
Seungri shrugged his shoulders.” It is an option you have to consider Jiyong. The chances of saving the business are kind of slim right now. You know I’m just saying” Seungri continued explaining most cautiously this time.
Jiyong silently and carefully thought about what his best friend said.
Just as if on cue CL entered the apartment. She slumped on the floor in between Jiyong and Seungri.
Jiyong looked her with a slight hope in his eyes, but CL’s eyes mirrored that of Seungri.
Jiyong took a long breath and stood up not even wanting to talk about it.
“I’m sorry Jiyong” CL calls out to comfort him.
“It’s okay, there’s always tomorrow, If we don’t find a within 2 months then when we’ll start talking about selling the shop” Jiyong said in a sad almost whisper voice.
Seungri pulled CL up to cuddle up next to him, hoping that tomorrow with bring better chances for them.
