Sung-Ho:)
Seriously, it was too formidable to select something for a girl, because I never appreciated girlish stuff so now strutting at the gift mart, looking kinda laughingstock watching other people, picking up things for themselves so effortlessly, but the same work came across like a passing any problematic test for me.
Accepting the defeat, I phoned Justin to encourage me a little, and here I go.
"Hello?" I let out in an annoying rhythm, might be he would understand but he didn't.
"Wait wait, what's with that accent of you?" I remembered he would recognize my tone, regardless of all that carried weight to me was bartering gifts for his girlfriend.
"First of all, tell me what your girlfriend would like to receive as a gift?" I went straight to the point, seemed to ignore his question.
However, my forbearance dawdle for his feedback for some moments, and then he accomplished with such an unacceptable answer to my question.
"what if you had to buy something for Jin-Ae on her birthday..." he paused, after making me stuck with the thoughts of her, yeah her favourite things? This suspicion made me realise that I only inferred a little about her, and this made me giggle at myself.
"What?"
"....just think that you are buying gifts for her. That's all, alright I guess I have solved your problem, bye," yeah he unravelled, in addition, made things manageable for me with the name of her, my love.
Walking towards the end of the store at the books section, because being a writer she would love to read books and today she would receive my favourite book of ever.
After realising that, my face lights up with a cheering smile on my lips.
And then I flee the mart with a book enclosed as a gift.

Justin:)
Yes, today was my girlfriend's birthday so I had to have something different from those ordinary people. But stuck with the complication of what to purchase.
And I panned out getting fallen with impressions over gifts.
However before I could come up with any ideas for today's night, her call interrupted my peace. My whole mood cheered up with the sight of her name popping up on the screen and without further delay, I accepted the call.
"Hey, how are you?" I pleaded beautifully, to make her feel important on her momentous day.
"Listen to me..." she paused and that accent of her stunned for a moment, just let her finish I stayed silent, signalling her to continue.
"Jin-Ae is now with me, like in the US. I didn't know about this but she surprised me, I feel so happy, and she would have dinner with us, I can't believe she came here on my birthday," her mood sounded great as her tone described to me how happy she was. Yeah! that was great that her friend attended her on her birthday with a surprising presence.
"That's good! You should enjoy the night," I said, trying to add a bit of happiness.
"No,"
"What do you mean by no?" I questioned.
"I also invited Sung-Ho with you, and if these two love birds encounter each other then what?" I must agree with her statement because neither of us was aware of their reactions, which means how they would acknowledge if confronted, and again I got stuck with something to come up with, like how to make it pleasant for both of them, they two would be meeting up after a year, I know how he would react but the issue that was disturbing my peace was about her reaction, she didn't know that he would come up as a surprise for her.
I sighed
"You enjoy with her, let me talk to him," I said
"Alright, bye," she added
And now I had to converse about this with him, but I preferred to keep her presence as a surprise.
"Think Justin, Think?" I affirmed continuously to get an indication and that's when I came across it.
"Yes!"
As I was nearly to address him with the call, my phone rang and a screen appeared to get brighten with his name, and my lips twitched upwards.
"You gonna live long, man!" I announced before accepting his call.
"Hello?" his tone amazed me because he never addressed me with that accent. I couldn't handle that tone of him, so I questioned.
"Wait wait, what with that accent of you?" I said, pausing for a moment to let him explain the reason, but now he didn't as he came up with the reason that let him get exasperate.
"First of all, tell me what your girlfriend would like to receive as a gift?" he asked, and a fact hit hard that he wasn't merciful with girlish stuff, so I came to understand his issue.
what if you had to buy something for Jin-Ae on her birthday..." I thought twice when realised that what I said, my tongue slipped but yeah it made me happy that it would be effortless to welcome her after a long period. In addition, I facepalmed myself with what was to come next.
"What?" he asked as if he didn't understand my hint.
".....just think that you are buying gifts for her. That's all, alright I guess I have deciphered your problem, bye," now I knew he would add up my answer and buy something of her choice so I hang up the call.
"Yeah, that's it," I said and got busy with my stuff.

Min:)
She was doing my make-up for tonight celebration, as I wore one piece of white colour with off shoulders and that went to mid-thigh, and what added a star to my beauty was her make up the sense that matched with tonight's outfit.
"I'm looking so beautiful, all thanks to my beautiful friend," I said when mirrored myself whole. Seriously even I couldn't take my eyes off from myself. Such an angel. But now it was my turn to turn my angel into a beautiful princess for her prince.
"Come!" I said, and turned towards the closet to pick a dress for her, after all, she should look more beautiful than me I guess.
"Wait for a little and change into this outfit," I said to her and handed her a black dress with a high cut on the thigh and glittering fabric that would make her twinkle in the nighttime of the moon.
Thereupon, a few minutes ratified lingering for her fo show up, and then there comes my Princess. I promised myself that I would make this night memorable for them, I was all after their reunion, forgetting about my birthday, because she mattered more to me than my birthday.
"Alright, come here now I would make you so beautiful that no other girl would affect his feeling for you," I said without any realisation that I mentioned her love.
"Who?" she asked.
I hit my head when came to sense mentioned Sung-Ho, "I mean whoever had his eyes on you would forget about their girlfriends," I pretended some laugh to divert her from much thinking.
"Shut up!" she said while hitting my arm playfully.
I blew a kiss in her direction and asked her to close her eyes, as I would be going to make her even more beautiful than she was already.
She nodded.
*babe, make him look like a gentleman tonight.* Meanwhile I dropped a text to Justin, hinting at him a little and I was pretty sure he would understand what I was hinting.
After thirty minutes, I was done with her makeup and gave her a look with smoky eyes, the addition of red lipstick and a messy bun.
"Here you go!" I said, instructed her to open her eyes, to catch the sight of a princess in sight.
The moment she opened her eyes, those same eyes, smoky ones went wide. Those lips parted ways to characteristic a shocking feel.
"Is this me?" she questioned.
I nodded while smiling widely at her through the mirror and pecked her forehead so hard, that left the mark of my lipstick on her look.
She returned the smile with the same expression as I passed before when she did my make-up.
"But bae, tonight you are supposed to look more beautiful, I guess I have to change this dress," her words disappointed me, and instantly my expression of happiness took hold of sadness.
"Didn't you like my make-up?" I said, forming a pouty face.
"Hey, nooo," she put more emphasis on the last vowel, trying to comfort me.
"Then why you are talking like that?"
"I just- okay leave it, I won't change. Is that okay now?" she asked and cupped my face.
I nodded like a baby, which forged a smile on her face.
"Let's go!" I said and sauntered past the make-up room hands in hands.
She nodded and there I found my only one standing with the support of his car, with goggles on, arms crossed over his chest, Justin.
"Hey, baby!" I asserted and galloped into his arms, that's when I felt his lips connected with my right cheek.
"You are looking beautiful," he complimented me which unintentionally got me a shade of red on my cheeks.
"Thanks," whispered and turned around to greet Jin-Ae to him.
"Wait!" I asked forgiveness myself and gripped her arms to both of them, even though he knew her but she wasn't cognizant of my boyfriend.
"Jin-Ae, this is Justin, my boyfriend and Justin, this is Jin-Ae, my childhood friend," I said while they both did a handshake.
"Nice meeting you," he said with a smile.
"Same here," she strengthened while retreating the smile in his direction.
"Let's go!" he said, and just like a gentleman, he unlocked the door for both of them, which rendered me honour him even more.
"Thank you," I and Jin-Ae said in union while I passed a kiss to him.
Our time was spent while mumbling about any random topic, and neither of us realised that how promptly we touched our destination.
"Here we go!" he said and all three of us clambered off the car when some glimmers made me close my eyes out of immediate sparkling.
"Surprise babe, and happiest birthday to you!" he asserted and at the same moment I realised that it was some other place illuminated with lamps and blossoms, kinda appeared like a beach.
My mouth went wide open, eyes filled with water out of happiness, I reckoned that we would spend the night in some club as I planned but no this viewpoint totally assumed me by wonder.
"Justin, didn't we plan for the club?" I raised a question
"Yes we did, but suddenly something came up, as you told me that Jin-Ae came so I thought of planning something private for both of them, and then after setting them, we will spend some time privately," he was correct, I also chose them to spend time peacefully and devour all night together.
"That's great, I'm so delighted that they would have some time together after so long," I confided and peeked at Jin-Ae, who got immersed on a call with somebody.
"But where is he?" I cross-examined
"Maybe he will be here any minute," he said.
"Oh, so what should we do?"
"We have to excuse ourselves with an excuse and then they both would have some alone time," he was honest.
"How?"
"Ask her to wait and then pull any excuse," I understood him and paused a little to direct Jin-Ae towards the table.
"Jin-Ae, come here," I said
"What?"
"Can you wait here a little? Actually, we have to make it to somewhere right at the moment, We will be here in some time," I prevaricate for her good.
"Oh!"
"Yeah! I'm sorry. Can you please?"
"Yeah, no issue. Attend your work, I'll be fine here, don't be sorry," she said.
*Min, let's go he is here.* I got a notification from Justin, saying that Sung-Ho was here so I hurried and bid bye to Jin-Ae.
"Bye!" she added.
**
"Is he here?" I asked after reaching near to him, while he was busy, texting someone on phone.
"Yeah!" he said,
"Did you ask her to wait?" he added.
I nodded.
"Great, I have adjusted a camera near to table just to check out them."
"But why?"
"Because up to where I know she would be angry with him, leaving her without any notice so tonight they won't have a good time, might be," he worked out right.
We climbed inside the car and went away from there, that's when I realised the passing car him from the entrance.
"Arrived!"
