"Kim Jung Hoo is your boyfriend?" Hannah asked, shocked. Why now of all time, now she was in love with someone, her sister is talking about being his girlfriend.
"Yeah, he is my boyfriend. Is it wrong to date him?" Celine was surprised by her sister's question.
Kim Jung Hoo and Celine have been dating for the past three years but they kept it secret from their parents and also because of their jobs they don't have much time for themselves. Even though it is a long-distance relationship they still kept in touch with one another.
Any time Celine's schedule is free she goes to meet him in the states but keeps it a secret from her fans. Only her manager knows about it.
"How the hell did that happen? You couldn't even tell your sister you have a boyfriend?" Hannah seethed, not happy with the news she just heard.
"Why should I tell you every single detail going on in my life?" Celine asked irritated with the way her sister was trying to know things going on in her life.
"Why the f**k does my life has to revolve around you!" Hannah yelled out. She dashes outside her sister's room slamming the door hard, leaving Celine shocked by her outburst.
Celine wanted to go after her little sister but decided to allow her to calm down a bit before talking to her. She wasn't that strong to walk to her room.
( FEW HOURS AGO)
Celine was on her bed having a nice dream when her phone rang, she ignored it at first thinking it was her manager. But it rings repeatedly making her curse out intending to abuse and let out her anger on the person who stopped her from enjoying her beauty sleep.
"Celine on the line and who the f**k is this?" She spoke into the phone without checking the name.
"Never knew you deleted my contact." The husky familiar voice replied irritated making her snap out of her sleepy self.
"Oh my goodness JO, I am sorry for not calling to tell you I won't be going to the party anymore." Hannah pleaded with her boyfriend.
She was the one who convinced him to attend the party and that she would be there to accompany him and also introduce him to her family. Damn the ruining of her dress and also the little fever had made her forget about it completely.
"Thank goodness you could recall you convincing a human to go to a party he doesn't want to go to," he muttered, still annoyed at her.
"I am so sorry JO," she whispered this time.
"Your voice doesn't sound okay, you good?" He asked noticing how her always cheerful voice was down.
"I am.…" "cut the crap Lina, and tell me why the fuck you sound that way?" He fumed.
"I just have a little fever." She admitted knowing he won't give up easily.
"The f**k end you are just gelling me now? Send me your parent's address." He snarled
All I need is just a nice long sleep and I would be fine." She whispered into the phone but that wasn't his mind anytime from now.
"Your parent's address now!" He growled and hang up.
Celine knows he won't give up so she sends her parent's address to him. Her phone buzz again showed she received a message she opened and checked it was from him.
"I will be there shortly," it read.
She sighed and lay back on her queen size beautiful bed till her boyfriend came.
Her room was decorated like that of a princess, The wall was painted in blue and green color. Beautiful art was drawn on the wall, there is also a drawing of her on the wall. There are only three pictures placed on the wall and they are all drawings of nature.
There is a full-length mirror and also a dressing mirror where all her make-up kits are kept. By the side of the dressing mirror, you can see her closet.
Now going to her bed a chiffon canopy overlays this French-headboard bed, while a strip of frog green stripes over the top. There were simple white tables by the corner and a lightly-embroidered bedspread. A tropical pillow on the bed brings it all together. Even though she doesn't spend much time at home, a lot is spent changing the clothes in her closet and make-up kit.
----PRESENT----
She was still confused about her sister when someone knocked on the door.
"Come in, it isn't locked." She said tiredly. She opened her eyes looking at her two lovely parents staring at her with a confused and at the same time happy expression.
"Mum, dad welcome back, I thought you are going to let me have a nice rest tonight but no you didn't. It's 3 am and I haven't had the opportunity to have a nice sleep." Celine murmured, making her parents guilty for disturbing her.
"We are sorry for waking you up darling, we just want to check if you are getting better now," Suzanne said, not allowing her husband says what he intended to say.
"I am fine mum, so please can you allow me to have a nice sleep now?" Celine asked, almost crying. The parent wished their daughter good night and quickly left the room without another word.
____________
The next day Celine woke up better, she checked the time and saw it was noon already. She lazily got up to leave for the bathroom, when she noticed a piece of paper fell from her bed. She picks it up and reads it.
"Sis, I am sorry for my tantrums yesterday I was just mad you didn't tell me about your boyfriend even when I am your favorite sister duh, even though I am your only sister. Anyways I have a commercial this morning so I left early.
From your favorite darling sis
Love you." Celine smiled reading this she knows when she is calm a bit she is going to come around.
Not long after her phone rang with the name of her manager displayed on the screen, she knew he wouldn't accept any excuse from her since he allowed her to rest for a whole day and night. She picked up and used her weak voice to greet her.
"Cut the crap Celine, you applied for the queen of K-pop competition?" Her manager yells at her, making her distance her phone from her ear so he doesn't burst her drum.
"Yeah I did, you know how much I am in love with the Korean world," Celine said dreamily.
"You can't win the f**king competition, you are a Filipina for goodness sake!" The manager yells again, he doesn't understand what the hell goes on in her mind.
"It's fine Clara, just let me participate in it. I promise you won't regret it." She tried to convince her manager.
Knowing that when Celine set her mind to do something nothing is stopping her from doing so, she hopes she doesn't regret it as she has said.
Celine quickly have her bath and dressed up, she wore denim fitted black jeans along with an orange cinched waist top. She allows her hair to fall gracefully down to her waist. She did a little touch of make-up and used lip gloss, picked up a black purse, and also put on orange ankle booties. Satisfied with her outfit she finally left the room.
When she got downstairs, she was surprised to meet her parents in the living room watching the tv. It was a comedy show.
"Mum, dad good morning." She greeted the couples who were so engrossed with the show they were watching, hearing their daughter's voice they quickly diverted their attention to their daughter.
"Won't! Thought it past twelve already," Suzanne said sarcastically. Celine knows her mum will never let her go for waking up late.
"You are one of the reasons I woke up late, mum," she said, now going close to them, kissing both of their cheeks.
"Fine, I am letting this go since you think you are going to attack me with this." Her mum said again with an eye roll.
"I will be leaving now, I need to complete some important things." She said again, but the couples have other plans for their daughter. They have been curious since the previous day, that they couldn't leave for their job.
"It's better you let that wait for now Celine, we have a log of questions for you." The father said now.
"Dad,"
"Don't dad me, since when have you guys been seeking each other?" The father asked to cut his daughters from saying anything, even if he is happy about how things turn out to be, he still needs to know how far they have gone and if they are compatible with one another.
"It's been three years now," Celine replied, not able to look up at her dad. Her parents were stunned by the information their daughter just told them.
"The hell you guys have been seeing each other for three years and I know nothing about it, we need to arrange your wedding." The father yelled, making Celine the one to stare at her parent's shock.
"What dad? We have our set of best schedules, we can't get married now." She cried out, but her dad wasn't going to listen to her and she knew that it was final and there was no amount of words that could change his mind.
If only she had known what awaited her, if only her father was able to get a glimpse of the future if only her mum had stopped her dad from making that decision.
