When my mom was alive, I remember there was something she had told me that stuck with me throughout my life, "A-Yeong my daughter, let them judge you. Let them misunderstand you. Let them gossip about you.Their oppinions aren't your problem. You stay humble, and commited to your words, and free in your authenticity. No matter what they say or do. Dont you ever doubt yourself or the beauty in your truth. You are beauty you are grace, and they will try to bring you down because they are a disgrase."

'BRRRRRR'
'BRRRRRRR'
I heard my alarm go off as I got up. "Ugh, I need to change that ring tone." I thought outloud.
I got up groggily and grabbed my phone. "W-what.Is.This?" I questioned as my eyes widened im shock.
The first thing I like to do in the morning is read the morning article, but I remember that day I wish I would have skiped that part of my routine. The articke on my phone read-,
'𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐊-𝐏𝐨𝐩 𝐈𝐝𝐨𝐥 𝐒𝐮𝐧𝐠-𝐇𝐨 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐒𝐮𝐡𝐨 𝐀-𝐘𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐠, 𝐝𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 '𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞

"Welp can't say I didn't see it coming." I said in slight shock while trying to calm myself down.
Just as I was going to get up, I got a call from Sung-Ho.
"𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡?"I said while still half asleep "𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑑𝑜 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑛 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡! 𝑇𝐻𝐸 𝑅𝑈𝑀𝑀𝑂R𝑆 𝑇𝐻𝐴𝑇𝑆 𝑊𝐻𝐴𝑇! ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑠𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑚!?"Said Sung-Ho while shouting. "𝑃𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒 𝑑𝑜𝑛'𝑡 𝑠𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑚 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑟𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑚𝑦 𝑒𝑎𝑟. 𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝑦𝑒𝑠.

"𝐵𝑒𝑎𝑐𝑎𝑢𝑠𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑦 𝑓𝑎𝑛𝑠, 𝑃ℎ𝑜𝑛𝑖𝑥'𝑠. 𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑎𝑠𝑘 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡𝑠 𝑔𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑜𝑛. 𝐼 𝑎𝑙𝑠𝑜 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑎 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑏𝑎𝑐𝑘 𝑙𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑎𝑡 7:00." Said Sung-Ho sounding scared.
" 𝐶𝑎𝑙𝑚 𝑑𝑜𝑤𝑛 𝐼 𝑔𝑜𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠."I said to him.
"𝐴𝑟𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑙𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔?"Said Sung-Ho in a frustraited tone.
"𝐴𝑠 𝑐𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝑎𝑠 𝑑𝑎𝑦. 𝐵𝑦𝑒 𝑛𝑜𝑤."I said as I smirked proudly at my idea.
A few hours passed as I went to the place my interview was at.
"𝐽𝑖𝑛𝑛𝑦 𝐹𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑜𝑛𝑧 𝐸𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑦 , 𝐸𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑦 𝑆ℎ𝑜𝑤" Read a sign infron of the building as I walked in.
"Hello, are you Ms. A-Yeong?" Said a lady dressed in all black with an ear peace on her shoulders.
"In the flesh." I replied as I smiled.
"Great, follow me please." she said as she started to walk.
"My name is Wendy, Im the producer here." She said as we walked through a hallway filled with staff.
"Great!" I said trying to keep tbe conversation short.
As we walked on to a room with cameras a small wooden table and red velvet chairs Wendy had said "Ok take a seat in the chair to the right."
As I sat down I looked around with my eyes. I had overheard the other producers whispering "𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐉𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬!?"
"𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐢𝐭'𝐬 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰! 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞."
One of them looked up and shouted " Can anyone get Jinny on the phone, the interview is starting in two minites and he isn't ready yet!"
Then out of nowhere comes in Jinny completly calm, like as if he wasn't 30 minutes late.
"Ok, I'm here where is my mic?" He said with an arrogant smile. "Yes sir it's right here." Said Wendy.
'𝐻𝑎𝑣𝑒𝑛'𝑡 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑚𝑒𝑡 ℎ𝑖𝑚 𝑎𝑛𝑑 ℎ𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑎𝑙𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑦 𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑘𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑚𝑒 𝑜𝑓𝑓.' I thoght as he had walked to the chair that was infront if me.
"You are completly stunning Ms. A-Yeong." He said sitting down.
I smiled and then the director shouted, "GOING ON AIR....IN 3 ,2 ,1 !" And then a light to the right of me came on and as the camera zoomed in on Jinny's face he said, "Hello everyone.Welcome to the Early, Early show. I'm Jinny Fallonz, this beautiful young lady to my left here, is Suho A-Yeong, model and daughter of Suho Han, the owner of one of the most succesful clothing company's in Asia."
He turned to me and started asking questions. "So you haven't been to active on modeling lately, you'r fans miss you, is it because of the company your father owns. Haha." Jinny said while fake laughing.
"Actually since you asked I have been busy because of the company. We have something special coming up so please be exited for that. Also I will be back in modeling once we are done with that." I said as I smiled at Jinny.
" Well can you spoil some of that 'somethong special'?" Said Jinny while looking back and forth to the camera then me.
"Ummm, Well the it's a magazine we are releasing. It will show some of our newest peaces and a lot of famous people will be in it, So make sure to check it out when it comes!" I said with exitment.
We went back and forth with questions and answers, then the momment I had known was bound to happen, was there.
He wiped his smile and said, "Now the momment we are all waiting for. The peparatzi caught some pictures of, you and Sung-Ho together outside of one of the Hliton Hotels. So tell me are you too dating?", He said as the picture of Sung-Ho and me popped up in the screen.
"Well Jinny, if I was dating him believe me, no one woulsld know. Plus even if I wanted to say anything, If we were dating I couldn't say anything without the permission of his board, and him." I said as I smiled smugly.
"Well, I guess any girl would want to be with him with all his money and fame. What girl doesn't want to be treated like a princess?" He said while trying to make a joke. But failed. Badly.
I pursed my lips and crossed my legs, "Mr Jinny, unless you're ready to be my night in... not so shinny armour, do 𝗻𝗼𝘁 compare me to a meesley princess. I am my own queen."
He smiled nervously, as if not expecting my words, "Come on Little A-Yeong, be a good guest. Tell us all what we want to hear."He said with that same arrogant smile that he had came in with.
'𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑚𝑎𝑛 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑎 𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑡. 𝐼𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑛𝑜𝑦𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑝𝑒𝑜𝑝𝑙𝑒,' was the only thing going through my mind in that moment.
I twirled a strand of my hair, "Mr. Jinny, you truly have no room to speak about being a 'good guest' when the host couldn't even bother to be on time, to his own show at that."
Ther nervousness slipped from his face and anger took place, "A-Yeong! Be a lady! Didn't your father teach you how to be a lady."
I smiled innocently, "Daddy tried to teach me to be a lady, but Mama won. She tought me to be a lady who doesn't take crap from anyone. Now, if you'll excuse me, Mr. Jinny."
As I stood up my innocent smile slipped from my face, I leaned in to his ear and said, "Plus, you have such beautiful lips, you should introduce them to each other and keep them sealed."
Then I really did leave. I wanted to look back to see their astonished faces, but not once did I look back, because Mama taught me to be a lady who doesn't take crap from anyone.
As I left the building that day I remrmber thinking, '𝐼 𝑐𝑎𝑛 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑛𝑒𝑤𝑠 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑠 𝑎𝑙𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑦.'
as I smiled, because my plan had worked better than expected.
As I was getting in my car I got a call, "𝐻𝑒𝑙𝑙𝑜?" I said into my phone.
"𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑛𝑡 𝑖𝑡 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑠𝑎𝑖𝑑, ℎ𝑢ℎ 𝑦𝑜𝑢 '𝑡𝑜𝑜𝑘 𝑐𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑖𝑡' ℎ𝑎ℎ𝑎ℎ𝑎."Said Sung-Ho sounding proud.
"𝑇𝑜𝑙𝑑 𝑦𝑜𝑢, 𝑝𝑙𝑢𝑠 𝑖𝑡 𝑤𝑎𝑠 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑓𝑢𝑛 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑚𝑒." I replied while smiling "𝑊𝑒𝑙𝑝, 𝑏𝑦𝑒 𝐼 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑔𝑒𝑡 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑦 𝑓𝑜r 𝑚𝑦 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑏𝑎𝑐𝑘 𝑙𝑖𝑣𝑒." Said Sung-Ho as he hung up.
I went home after a while, and at around 6:30 I got a call from Sang-Hee later, telling me how she was proud and she expected that.
Around 10 minutes later I decided to take a walk aroung Starlux. While thinking '𝐼 𝑙𝑖𝑘𝑒 𝑟𝑢𝑚𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑠, 𝐼 𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑠𝑜 𝑚𝑢𝑐ℎ 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑚𝑦𝑠𝑒𝑙𝑓 𝐼 𝑑𝑖𝑑𝑛𝑡 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤' I looked down at the floor and laughed at myself.
