Rating: hahha this one is safe PG13 -Pg18 max I guess if I do get there hahahahah.
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.
Minzy just finished her school and on her way to attend her training in YG Ent. She glanced at her watch she was 45 minutes early for her vocal lesson. She quickly decided to drop by her father’s office first.
Minzy carefully peeked into the President’s office. When she saw her father not really busy and not talking to some business partners or company artists, she happily skipped in the room. She may be the daughter of the CEO but that doesn’t give the right to just barge in or even skip practice. She had to work as hard as every trainee in the company.
“dad!” She called out. Jumping on her father to hug him.
The older man hugged her back just as tight. “Hi! There! Aren’t you a little early for your training? He asked.
“Yup I am, that’s why I’m here!” Minzy happily said.
Yang Suk smiled at how adorable his daughter was at times.
“I saw your test results they were very good! Your trainers said you’ve been doing well too” Yang Suk praised his daughter and patted her at the back.
“Of course! I’m the best!” Minzy cheerfully said and made a cute victory pose
Yang Suk laughed at the antics of his daughter she definitely mastered her cute aeygo already.
“I think you need a reward, don’t you think so?” Yang Suk said.
Minzy’s eyes widened.
“really dad?!!” minzy asked in disbelief.
“hhahahahaha yes I am serious now what do you want?” Yang Suk asked,
Minzy didn’t even spend a minute to think. She already knew what she wanted.
“I want the limited edition Dr. Dre headphones!” Minzy exclaimed.
“HeadPhones? You already have a gazillion headphone” Yang Suk asked.
“This isn’t just any one of those special head phones. This only has 50 headphones out there and only 12 have Dr. Dre’s signature. And ofcourse I want the one with the signature “Minzy added (this is so totally made up hahahaha )
Yang Suk sighed maybe he should have just picked the gift himself. “okay okay I will try to look for it.” He finally conceded.
“Thanks dad!I love you so much ! and yeah don’t bother searching online it’s all sold out !” Minzy said hugging Yang Suk.
“You asked for a head set as a gift?” Someone commented from their back.
Minzy and Yang Suk back to see Young Bae sitting on the couch watching them.
“Oppa!!! How long have you been there?” Minzy asked happily Young Bae was her favourite hyung or Sunbae in the company, in the world even.
“Around a few minutes after you came in” Young Bae answered uninterested.
Minzy immediately sensed that he wasn’t in a good mood.
“Don’t you have a performance today Young Bae?” Yang Suk asked remembering Young Bae had a jam packed schedule today.
“Yeah, I have, I’m just waiting for the crew to finish up.” Young Bae said without interest.
Yang Suk sighed, Young Bae had been getting colder and colder and even unresponsive to others at times,
“Why are you so down? Did you and your girlfriend have a fight?” Minzy asked trying to lighten up the mood.
Young Bae shrugged. “I don’t have a girlfriend. “ He said standing up and straightening his hair.
“What about the gorgeous girl you were with last week?” Minzy asked she couldn’t understand him
sometimes.
Young Bae looked up and tried to think
“Gorgeous girl? Last week?” he asked out loud while thinking. Minzy and Yang Suk just looked at him and waited for his answer with their eyebrows raised.
“Ah her, I’m done with her” Young Bae answer checking his hair one last time.
Minzy was just about to burst out when Young Bae’s assistant Seungri came in.
“Young Bae, we are ready to go now” He said then faced the President bowing.
Yang Suk bowed back.
“ Go Young Bae, we will follow in a few minutes. Have fun and good luck” Yang Suk said and patted Young Bae back.
Young Bae smiled at the older man.
“I will thank you!” Young Bae said as he bowed down and waved bye to Minzy.
...
Young Bae went on stage and performed like there was no tomorrow. Like in every other performance he did he always gave his hundred percent this show was 19 + show anyway so he didn’t have anything to worry about he went all out and gave the fans almost everything that they wanted. He could hear their chants and screams and it was just one of the few things that urged him to continue with his career. He was his happiest when he was performing. Right now this was the only thing that gave him happiness now.
Yang Suk and Minzy watched from the side lines. Yang Suk was happy because Young Bae still had the same passion in performing on stage. He was giving out a genuine smile and his happiness can be felt throughout the stage.
The girls started screaming louder when Young Bae stripped his shirt off. And Yang Suk just smirked.
“The girls are throwing themselves at him” Minzy commented.
“well, he is Dong Young Bae after all” Yang Suk commented.
“I know but he changed, I wish he was this happy in real life too” Minzy sadly commented.
Yang Suk understood what Minzy meant. He too wished that Young Bae this happy too in and out off stage too like he was before. With His eyes showing happiness and the timid smile that melts everyone’s hearts.
“He should have a companion I think, it must be very lonely being up there all alone” Minzy said and Yang Suk couldn’t agree more.
.....
“Good morning Sir! “ Jiyong greeted the customer as he entered the shop.
“Good morning” the older man greeted back.
“How may I help you sir?” Jiyong asked politely but at the same time sizing up the older man in front of him. He looked really familiar; he was handsome and definitely looked rich.
“I’ve been looking for this headphone all over town and I still haven’t found it. Do you have one? My daughter one as a gift for doing exceptionally well on her tests”, He answered but his eyes wandering around.
Jiyong thought for a second. After that he led the older man to the part of the shop that showcased the headphones.
“Are you looking for anything in particular sir?” Jiyong asked as the man. He observed that the older clearly knew what he was looking for and looked very familiar with the brands out there.
“You have a great set of headphones here but sadly what I’m looking for isn’t here” the older man answered in a bit of disappointed tone.
Jiyong scratched his head.
“What headphones are you looking for sir?” Jiyong asked out of curiosity. Their shop almost had all the newly released headphones.
“I’m looking for the limited edition Dr. Dre head phones the one with his signature if that’s even possible to find” The older man said still browsing through the display.
Jiyong’s heart stopped he had that headphone it was one of the few collectables he had that he didn’t want to sell.
“uhmm I will look at our storage if we have” Jiyong said as he started walking away from the older man in deep thought.
“My daughter really wants to have it” The older man said again.
Jiyong gripped the box of Headphones in his bag. He was deliberating on whether to sell it or not. But the selling price alone of the headphone could extend their business for a week or so depending on other sales.
A few more minutes he approached the older man.
The older man’s eyes widened as he saw the collectors’ limited edition of the head phones and it had the signature too.
“This is the only one I have; it’s been taken out of the box around 2 times and only used once. If you still want it” Jiyong explained hiding the sadness he was feeling.
“You own this?” the man asked sensing the attachment Jiyong had with the item.
“Yes, but I also need the money too, for greater things.” Jiyong explained shortly he wasn’t the type to open up easily.
“that’s not a problem, I will pay even higher.” The man said observing Jiyong.
Jiyong bowed and walked away to pack the item. A few seconds later then man already paid him in check and Jiyong gave the package securely and neatly packed.
“Oh, thank you really thank you very much, Mr....?” the other man said with sincerity.
“Kwon Jiyong. But can call me GD for short sir.” Jiyong said and smiled at the older man. He didn’t know why but he felt really comfortable with him.
“Thank you really your shop is so helpful” He said once again then left the shop happily.
Jiyong released a sigh, as he looked at the check. He decided it was okay to close the shop early and settle some payments.
.....
Jiyong was once again dead tired from walking around town. Although the money the man paid him for the headphones really helped him settle some bills. They still had a lot of problems.
He decided to visit TOP, his boyfriend. He was hoping that TOP had a few ideas on how to save his business. He also missed TOP. It’s been 3 weeks since they last saw each other. He had been busy and TOP was busy with his back and forth company trips around the country too.
He knew he had a lot to make for so he decided to surprise TOP by not telling him that he was coming over. He bought a box of TOP’s favourite chocolates and cigar along and if TOP wasn’t home when he got there Jiyong thought he would just cook a meal for them then. He had his own key to the condominium anyway.
He quietly opened the front door and tiptoed in the condominium. He looked around and started to walk straight to the bedroom since it was slightly open.
He peeked in the room and was taken aback by what he saw. His whole body was frozen on the spot he couldn’t move. TOP was having sex with another guy. They were so occupied with their lewd act that they didn’t even notice him.
He finally was able to move when he felt his cheeks getting wet. He felt like the air out of him was being sucked out. His chest was getting tighter and tighter.
He quickly walks out of the condominium wiping the tears in his eyes. He tried to forget the scene he just saw but it was useless. He felt so bad and angry. They never did together because he wasn’t ready yet. He hoped TOP would be able to help him or at least make him feel a little better, but no TOP made all his problems 100 times worst.
He walked around town aimlessly. He finally decided to rest on the park bench. He couldn’t stop it anymore he let his tears freely fall. He had always been an emotional guy. He didn’t bother anymore id somebody saw him.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm down. Maybe it was because he didn’t have sex with TOP that’s why he found someone else to do it with.
“GD?” A voice said close to him.
Jiyong looked up to see who was talking. To his surprise it was the old man who bought his precious headphones.
“I didn’t expect to see you here” the older man said, as he sat down beside him.
But Jiyong just forced a smile.
“You’re crying..” The older man said
Jiyong looked down and clasped his hands together.. “I know It’s uncommon for guys to cry in public but things have been tough lately” Jiyong said his voice still shaking.
“I know Life is really hard, but you look like your been crying a lot these past days”The older man said staring at Jiyong.
Jiyong’s tears started flowing again. He didn’t know why he was so comfortable with the older man but he felt like it was so easy to trust him.
“Now tell me how can I help this time?”The older man offered
Jiyong took deep breath and when he was finally calm he told the older every single problem he had about his family, the business and then his girlfriend. And after ranting and blurting everything out Jiyong felt a little embarrassed.
“WAH!!! This is so embarrassing! I disclosed everything about me to a stranger. I’m sorry I don’t usually do this, but you seemed to be a person that I could trust” Jiyong said.
The older man smiled. He felt for Jiyong he was happy at how honest the younger man was. He could see special things in him even the first time he was him in the shop.
“It’s okay, I am not a judgemental person” The older man said smiling.
“Thank you” Jiyong said. Feeling a little relief after sharing his problems.
For a few more minutes they were silent. After a few seconds the other man took out a business card from his wallet and handed it to Jiyong.
“Your shop doesn’t deserve to close.” The older man quietly said.
Jiyong’s eyes widened as he read the name that was on the calling card that was handed to him. He looked at the man he was talking to. He couldn’t believe that the man in front of him was none other than the Millionaire Businessman Yang Suk, A man with many businesses but particularly famous for being the CEO of one of the biggest Music companies in Korea.
Jiyong shakes his head side ways in disbelief while almost close to smiling . “I… I really can’t believe that I’m talking to you,” Jiyong shyly says.
Yang Suk laughed. “ You make me feel like I’m a celebrity or something.” He commented.
“But you are famous!” Jiyong exclaimed.
“I don’t want to think that I am famous. I think of myself as some one normal just trying to make it through the end of the day”. Yang Suk’s face suddenly became serious.
“Jiyong, let me help you” Yang Suk offered in a serious tone.
Jiyong didn’t know how to reply. He didn’t like all the negative and weird thoughts entering his mind right now. In this time, especially with the stature of the man he was talking to, is there someone that would voluntarily help without expecting a great exchange for it?
“I wont lie to you and tell you I don’t need your help. But if it has something to do with money, I don’t think I can pay you back quickly.” Jiyong declared.
The older man shook his head in disapproval.
“Jiyong, This is not about lending you money, but it’s a job from which you earn the money.” Yang Suk explained.
Jiyong furrowed his brows. “I don’t understand” Jiyong mussed.
The older man straightened his back from sitting before continuing, “ I would like to lease your services as a friend to give my precious artist a worthy companion and also to keep him happy” Yang Suk started explaining.
“what!!!” Jiyong blurted out in surprise .
“I will pay you 5 million won a month, Jiyong” the older man added. “enough to save your business” Yang Suk finished.
“But..” Jiyong was still shaking his head in disbelief. “ That is freaking ridiculous and not to mention super weird.”
“I know. But I am dead serious about it. You don’t have to do anything, Jiyong just try” Yang Suk calmy replied.
Jiyong stared blankly at the older man still thinking. He couldn’t believe the man was serious with what he was saying. That was just an uncommon and weird job but on the other hand, this could be the solution to their problem.
“what about your artist’s other friends or girlfriend?” Jiyong managed to ask after a few minutes of silence.
Yang Suk shrugged. “He only has a few friends, he has no girlfriend in particular but has lots of girls in his life” he answered.
“I think I have to go” Jiyong quickly said the other man’s answer made him feel uncomfortable.
“Maybe I need to talk things over with my friends first” Jiyong said and quickly stood up and turned his back on the other man.
“Call me once you’ve decided. I wont be looking for anyone else, Jiyong. Ang I really want to help you” Yang Suk added loud enough for Jiyong to hear.
