Chapter 31 - One day in Seoul

(A big crowd of people in one huge set of buildings. Etsuko wore an expresso brown dress over an off-white button-up. She had white sneakers along with a small brown satchel purse to match. Ezekiel wore a sky blue turtle neck that he had tucked into khaki-colored pants. Like Etsuko, he also wore white sneakers. He had a necklace or two in there for some extra decor. The two of them had walked out, into the open airport. Etsuko looking cute and bubbly, and Ezekiel on his phone, looking like a bad boy in a way. Some looked in their direction, thinking they were a couple or saying that either of them was good looking individually)

Ezekiel-" Where are we meant to be going again?"

Etsuko-" The Four Seasons Hotel. It's 5 star and popular with tourists"

Ezekiel-" Mn"

Etsuko-" We'll get an uber there"

Ezekiel-" Ok"

(The two of them reach outside and the uber was already waiting for them there. The driver puts their luggage into the trunk and he begins to drive off. Etsuko looks over at Ezekiel who was still on his phone. Suddenly, his phone turns off. Etsuko had pressed the off button on the side. Ezekiel looks over at her)

Etsuko-" Get off your phone. We should be gawking at how pretty this place is, not scrolling through GramInsta"

(Ezekiel turns his phone back on)

Ezekiel-" There's nothing to gawk at. We aren't here to sightsee. We're here to overlook a concert then we go home"

(Etsuko sighs)

Etsuko-" That doesn't mean you should be staring at your phone the whole time"

(Suddenly the two of them hear the driver speak up)

Driver-" Trouble in paradise?'

(Etsuko slightly blushes, making it much more of a deal on the outside)

Etsuko-" Tha-"

Ezekiel-" We're not dating"

(Ezekiel says before Etsuko could say a single thing. He knew anything she would say after that probably wouldn't be valid. The two of them reach the hotel and they both get out. Ezekiel grabs his suitcase and begins to walk off. Etsuko rolls her eyes and grabs hers afterward. She begins to follow Ezekiel)

Etsuko-" Hey wait up!"

(Late at night, Ezekiel lays in his bed, again, on his phone. He comes across a few pictures that he and Lynnon had taken together. He continues to swipe through them and a picture comes up of Lynnon with ice cream, after, a blurry picture, then another, then another, then lastly, one with the two of them. Their faces were covered in strawberry ice cream. Ezekiel smiles softly at the picture. Lynnon was laughing so hard at the two of them. Some ice cream had even gotten into his hair and she was laughing at the pink tips that had come from it. Ezekiel closes his eyes and holds the phone close to his chest. He smiles at the thought of Lynnons smile. Just then, it became easier to fall asleep. Ezekiel falls asleep and gets up late. He eats lunch with Etsuko at a small restaurant before the concert. It was loud and majorly crowded at the location of the performance. They head to their VIP seats and sit down)

Etsuko-" Are you excited?"

Ezekiel-" I guess? I mean we did work on this group"

Etsuko-" That's the spirit!"

(Etsuko ruffles his hair which surprises him. He looks over at her. They make eye contact and she quickly pulls her hand away, blushing. She covers her mouth with her wrist)

Etsuko-" I-I'm sorry. Did I go to far?"

(Etsuko said with acting in her voice. She was obviously pretending to innocent and cute. Lights start to shine on the stage which indicated the concert was about to start. Ezekiel looks back forward and doesn't say a word to Etsuko. They watch the show and it turned out great! As they leave, Ezekiel gets a phone-call. He gets his phone, hoping it was you know who)

[クリエイティブディレクター or Creative director pops up]

(Thoush he was a bit disappointed, he still picks up like it was a normal call. Etsuko watches as he does)

CD-" I just watched show on live television. It was great! How was it from your side?"

Ezekiel-" Good. It seemed sold out. There were a lot of people"

CD-" Great, I think we'll be expecting good sales and fans along the way for DNE. You're flight was a little delayed so you two stay for tomorrow and leave late at night. Is that ok"

(Ezekiel secretly sighs to himself and pinches the skin in between his eyebrows)

Ezekiel-" Yup that's fine"

CD-" Great. When you get home, you guys get plenty of sleep, k"

Ezekiel-" Mhm"

(The CD hangs up and Ezekiel puts his phone back in his pocket)

Etsuko-" Who was that?"

Ezekiel-" Boss. She says we'll be leaving tomorrow rather than today"

(Ezekiel mumbles to himself after)

Ezekiel-" Just great"

Etsuko-" That means we can sight see tomorrow!"

Ezekiel-" You can but I think I'll pass"

Etsuko-" Ugh, why~ You're being such a party pooper"

(Ezekiel ignores her small insult and the two of them head back to the hotel. Ezekiel takes a shower and comes out with a towel wrapped around his waist. He moves his hair out of his face and looks down at his phone)

Ezekiel-" 10. It's pretty late"

(He looks up and out the window in his room. He had a beautiful view of of the city)

Ezekiel-" She would like the view"
