Chereads / TAMING THE BEAUTY / Chapter 2 - Beginning

Chapter 2 - Beginning

"Miro, the gig is about to start." his manager peeks on him from the door of the room he was occupying. Informing him about the gig about to start. He just nod lazily and stood up from resting in the chair to check his appearance through the reflection of the mirror.

"Geez, why am I so handsome?" asking himself while watching his stance. Well, that's the most basic question that gifted people like him asked towards their own. For years he's working himself as a superstar and an actor, he never gets involved in a relationship even if sometimes, the media flashed a false report about him being in a relationship with his colleagues. It was kind of a pain to him.

He's wearing fitted ripped jeans with some chain designs from the side of his pockets. Paired with a black designer shirt. A black shoes and his hair in a top knot motion, looking like a rock star. But then his make-up artist and hairstylist went into the room. Disturbing him from having quality time with himself.

"Excuse me, Miro. We'll be readying you up" and because Miro is kind and was not like the other celebrity who are arrogant with his staff... He let them do their jobs on him easily. Tidying his hair and putting it in a proper motion. Glowing his appearance more attractive with makeup.

"You look tired today, Miro. You haven't gotten enough sleep?" his makeup artist asked.

"Kinda, I was having fun playing games last night that made me forget to sleep," he said as it was the truth. He was playing games all night and lose the appetite to rest.

"You shouldn't forget that. You are a celebrity and you must gain enough rest" well, Anna has a point. It's just that... he forgot it because of too much fun.

"Yeah, I will. Thanks, Anna" he said being grateful to his staff for worrying him.

Anna chuckled, "Why don't you hire a personal assistant so you won't be alone and there's someone who could take care of you." she suggested. It made Miro think, but he doesn't feel like hiring one. He did not want anyone to approach him and enter his private life. He prefers to go home to his house unhindered and fussing about his work. He wanted to be able to rest peacefully even if only for a few hours at night. He is okay with her life alone. It's okay for Miro to be alone because he's used to it. It had been a long time since his mother passed away and his father had married someone else after his mother passed away. Ever since then, he has been walking alone with the time that time has brought him. In every battle, the world brings for him.

He used to be angry with his father for what he had done to his mother. His father cheated on his mother and that caused depression in his mother. The reason why she ended herself up taking suicide. So, even though her father used to support him, he still couldn't forgive him. What his dad did to his life was unforgivable.

To him, his father was a long-term freed criminal. He despised it and he regretted becoming his son and for receiving its blood. When he graduated from college with a business ad course he no longer accepted anything from his father and freed himself from longing for his mother. In his father's house, there was not a day that he did not miss his mother. His mother symbolizes his life but she suddenly left, a reason for his happy life to become sad. While in college he did not return home. He only goes home whenever he needs to take something home or his father calls him for some important matters. His anger widened even more because of this new family he sees every time he comes home. Even though they treated him well, he still couldn't like them.

His father is rich and has lots of assets, he couldn't help but think of the other way around.

How did he become a celebrity? When he was still in school, he loved music, acting, and other things related to the arts. And for extra income he did live streaming through social media and because of that, someone noticed him and was working under a newly built entertainment and looked for a rookie like him, he did not hesitate to audition. So yeah, he was accepted and while he is spending in the industry his popularity grew even more and he eventually became a fully-fledged actor!

His life wasn't perfect and wonderful but he managed to raise himself from that dark part of his life. Up until now, he was exploring more about life. Especially that thing they called love. He wants to feel that, experience it, and become crazy towards someone he loved.

"I don't think having one is good" he answered Anna and Anna just shakes her head at him.

"It's good for you, Miro. You're alone after all" he chooses not to answer Anna and just think about it. But, he just couldn't find a reason to hire one.

The gig has started, in an open space stadium, his summer concert was a blast. Many fans came to support him. It's always the usual thing, doing concerts and fans will support him along the way. Besides, he won't be able to reach his level now without the people's support.

"You're my darling, I only love you"

"I will only be fateful and loving to you"

"You are my sunshine, to my darkness."

"You lit me up and made me feel inspired."

"You're my darling!"

After a series of songs, his performance has ended. His manager approached him, "You will have a fan meeting next month, Miro. Better get enough sleep and don't tire yourself." his manager reminds him of that. For he wasn't able to gain enough rest, recently. His eye bags are showing up, you can determine that he's restless. Beauty and appearance are important in showbiz, that's why he has to take care of his health as well as his face.

But, how will he be able to do that when he's not feeling sleepy at night? He gradually sleeps at late midnights.

"Yeah, yeah! Whatever you will say, Coleman" he answered to his manager who just 'tsk' at him. He just mimicked his friend. His manager is his friend. Coleman is a businessman, but he just made him his manager. In exchange for finding someone to take care of his health in two weeks. At that thought, his head will ache. How will he be able to find someone that he will like to hire and take care of him?

"Stop being stubborn, Miro. We're not teenagers anymore, my goodness we're nearly thirties!" Cole hissed as it was checking his schedules.

His lips twitched, "What's wrong with getting old? I'm still young both outside and inside!" his friend turned to him, annoyed. Its dark brows met each other.

"You're childish, fucker!" Cole cursed him, and he just laugh in reaction.

"Speaking of which, how's your sexual health? Are you still healthy?" well, knowing this friend of his was a kind of, women's favorite flavor. Coleman is the nation's boy over that bitches around the bush like to ride.

"I'm healthy! What do you think of me? Dumb? I used protection!" Miro burst out in laughter. This is what he likes with Cole, he's easy to tease.

"Take it easy, dude! I'm just kidding!" Cole turned his back to him and walk towards the door. But before his dear friend could walk out, it showed its middle finger to him. He just smirks and heaves a sigh. Damn, he's tired.

It's already six in the evening and his concert was ended by five-thirty. So, he's resting for thirty minutes already. His body felt so heavy, he wants to go home now and lye on the carpet. Yes, he preferred to sleep by the carpet, rather than by his huge and fluffy bed.

He brought himself up, to change and get ready to depart. He wants to rest. "Dude, drive me home" like a boss he demands a favor from his friend, slash employee. In short, employee-friend. Coleman did not answer and led the way to the parking lot instead. His friend was like a girl, it gets annoyed easily. Like it was having his monthly period.

"I'll be heading towards the bar, you wanna come with me?" Coleman asked as it was driving the car smoothly. He's sitting by the passengers' seat, overviewing the sceneries outside. The city is glistening with different lights, the tall buildings and infrastructures are attractive. As usual, the big city of Seoul Korea is alive at night.

"Nah, I'll be heading home," he said as he lean his head onto the headrest of the seat, tired.

"I'll just drop you by the place where I am heading to? I'm not planning of going home just yet." Coleman is into manipulations again. He knows how to manipulate him. Miro is kind of lazy, walking is beyond those limits. Public transportation might cause fan attacks. So, no.

"Fine, I'll go with you!" ended up agreeing with his friend's offer.

Moments later, they arrived at the bar, where they usually drink and have fun with. The bar is alive as well as the customers do. When the bouncers saw them coming, they automatically move and assisted them in going through inside without any hassle.

"Hey, lover boy! I came by your concert earlier" a lady in her black lacy dress, revealing its bareback, mountainous front, and soft long thin legs. Approaches him and became clingy and touchy with him.

"Hi, Kris! What's up?" Coleman greeted as the lady transferred herself to Cole.

"I'm good! But it'll be great if you'll entertain me tonight" its seductive voice doesn't escape from his ears. But he was more than willing with the woman he saw by the counter. It's wearing a red crop top shirt and simple rogue jeans, paired with white sneakers. He licked his lips as he walked towards the woman he found gorgeous. Even if its back was looking at him. He's confident that this woman possessed beauty. And he was right, right after he reached the counter, he did not hesitate to look at the woman's face.

This time, the desire that was in deep sleep for a long time awakens. He does not know why, especially since he's not the type of man who easily gets attracted to girls. Only this time...
