About A Girl [IV]
May 31, 2007

(Real Time: Manhattan, New York)

Although there was never a day when JiHoon wished he could have done things differently when they were in Macau, but he knew he had hurt Eun Hye so much with what he did.

Every time he remembers how Eun Hye cried sadly when he left her at the airport, he thought his heart would explode…

She never tried to communicate with JiHoon after that, when JiHoon left for England he changed practically everything he was accustomed to when he was in Seoul…

He focused more with school, learning the English language to perfection… and sometimes, when he sees other female Korean students in London, he would smile to himself and remembers Eun Hye.

After a year, while busy preparing for his school thesis, his manager Won Jong Kim called him and told him that he will be attending the MBS Awards Night with Eun Hye for both of them are nominated for an award…

He remembered vividly when he saw Eun Hye again, the atmosphere was so awkward… she had grown more beautiful, her smell had change too… from the Gucci cologne he had grown to love to a refreshingly new scent that surely exudes her new found beauty.

For the first few minutes, both of them were speechless… when they accepted the award for best new artist, both of them didn’t forget to mention each other’s names, and during the after party photo op, they were both in their best smiles.

Although they barely spoke that night, it was so clear to him how much he had missed Eun Hye, their everyday chat on the phone just talking anything under the sun…and how he would steal any chance to take a photo of her sleeping.

The only word they ever said to each other without the scrutinizing eyes of the media was "It’s great to see you" and sounded like half-meant…

JiHoon went back to London the next day, he didn’t try to contact Eun Hye again, he’s afraid that this time if he’ll ask her…she would really reject him and mean it.

His thoughts were distracted when he heard his mobile phone ringing… and he saw it was Rain calling him…

"Hello"

"Hey… I’m going back now to Korea. Do you want me to pass along a message to someone?" asked Rain

"What? Shut up Rain" sounded pissed

"Alright man, I’m just telling you…"

"Whatever man, have a safe flight…give my regards to Hye Kyo"

"You too JiHoon… if you get to see her, give my regards too" sounded so childish…

"Yah! What are you talking about…shut up man, I’m hanging up now!"

"Arasso JiHoon… Bye…. see you when I see you."

Moments later… his mobile kept ringing again.

"What the f**k Rain, I told you I’m hanging up…" JiHoon said and sounded really pissed…

"Who? This is me, Charlotte…why are you so angry early in the morning…" she asked rather curiously…

"Charlotte Fraser? I’m sorry, Rain was bugging me" he told her immediately…

"Yeah the same… Oh it’s alright…"

"How did you get my number?" JiHoon finally asked

"Honey, I can get anyone’s number. I’m friends with the US President." she said on a matter of fact tone…

(Laughing) "Oh, that’s good to know…"

"Anyway, the reason why I called… is because I wanted to ask if you already decided about my offer as a future LK Ambassador?"

JiHoon replied instantly… "Of course"

"Well then, I want you to fly to Paris today, I will send my driver to pick you up in an hour, will take you JFK, then you will be flying via the LK plane and I’ll meet you at the Ritz Hotel for the contract signing." she told JiHoon

"What? Oh okay. Where are you calling from?"

"I’m calling from Berlin… okay, I need to go now… see you there… bye"

She hangs up…

JiHoon went straight to his room to pack light… whatever he forgets to bring, he can sure buy it from Paris. An hour later, the LK Centre chauffeur came and assisted him with his bag. And they were off to JFK Airport.

The trip to Paris was a breeze, it wasn’t his first time to fly on a private plane, and he wondered around the small plane thinking about what Eun Hye would say about it…

Darn!!! He said to himself! I should learn to stop thinking about her.

A few hours later, they landed at the Charles de Guile International Airport in Paris; he was greeted by an American driver whom was wearing a posh black suit with a banner that is written in simple Korean language… “TO THE NEWEST LK STORE AMBASSADOR, PRINCE SHIN GOON!”… upon seeing this, JiHoon laughed, he was thinking that Charlotte has a good sense of humor.

They drove through the busy streets of Paris, and they were able to pass by the LK Centre Paris store… the driver pointed it out to him…

"Sir, look on to your right… that’s the first LK store in the world…"

JiHoon looked over the window and saw a baroque inspired building where photos of the Casiraghi siblings (the French LK Ambassadors) adorned every window of the store.

"Have you met any of the other LK models?" JiHoon asked the chauffeur

"Oh yes sir, I’m the only one whose allowed to pick those celebrities at the airport…I’ve been working for the Frasers since Charlotte and her sister were still in high school" he boasted at JiHoon

"Wow…cool" he smiled at him and continued to listen on his iPod…

Minutes later, they stopped in front of the glitzy Hotel Ritz de Paris; the hotel has been long favored by the Fraser sisters. When JiHoon stepped out, the Hotel Manager welcomed him immediately…

"Mr. Joo Ji Hoon, good afternoon sir and welcome to Hotel Ritz de Paris, I’m Martin de Borno, Hotel Manager, I would be personally attending to your needs as instructed by Lady Charlotte and her sister Lady Katherine." he extended a hand to JiHoon while handing him his business card too

"Oh thank you, by the way sir, is Charlotte here already?"

Mr. de Borno immediately looked at JiHoon as to how casually he addressed Lady Charlotte… "Oh no sir, not yet. But she has given me instructions to take you to your room and that once you are settled, we would direct you to where the meeting will take place"

"Oh okay, thank you"

JiHoon went straight to his room, and upon seeing it…his jaw dropped… it has the perfect view of the Eiffel tower and the entire city. So this is how the rich lives, he thought to himself. After 30 minutes, he set on his way to meet people from the LK Centre.

When he entered the room, there’s 5 people; Charlotte was sitting in a sofa together with a man whom she introduced as the GM for LK Centre Paris… Mr. Peter Mansart, his manager Jong, Mr. Timothy Fitzgerald, LK Centre Head Legal Counsel and a Korean translator.

"JiHoon, no jet lag I hope?" Charlotte asked

"No, I’m sorry I was late, I fell asleep" he looked around and saw Jong rubbing his forehead with what he just said…

Charlotte smiled at JiHoon and patted him on the shoulder, assuring him… "No biggies, I just got here myself. By the way, I forgot to mention to you that… "

(Before she could tell JiHoon everything, the door opened and Eun Hye entered with her manager)

JiHoon looked at Eun Hye intently, as if he was dreaming again… they looked at each other for a few seconds when…

(Charlotte made a sound as if she was clearing her throat…) "Ahem… as I was saying, I forgot to tell you, Eun Hye will be in the meeting too."

(Lady Charlotte welcomed Eun Hye, and introduced her to everyone. At this time, Lady Charlotte noticed that JiHoon was still looking at Eun Hye.)

to be continued….
