It's been almost a week since Euna last saw her boyfriend Red. He said he's been busy with his work lately. That was also the only reason he gave to her for his missing in action for so long.
For her it was no problem. Red updates her by text and call. It's just that more often than not she's already asleep when he texts and calls.
She still had no problem with that. She was just expanding her understanding to him. Besides, they were not children anymore.
She will repeat, what's important to hee is that he makes her feel good and doesn't forget his duties as her boyfriend. The important thing is that she knows what is happening here. Even if she can only talk to him once and it's only for a short time.
Okay, she will admit that she misses her boyfriend so she often sulks here and she almost doesn't reply to him anymore so he would have just opened the door of her house as he used to whenever she felt slightly angry with him. But it doesn't seem to have any effect on her boyfriend now. Maybe he's just too busy.
She doesn't want to think about her boyfriend's sudden busyness every hour and she also doesn't want to entertain the bad thoughts that come to her every time she thinks about it and at the same time she also entertains her bad feelings that there was no basis for her to feel—that she and Red seemed miles apart.
"Hey, this! it's right for Red!" Reyna said as her mind wandered. Her friend was holding a long sleeves polo when she looked at her. She must have just pulled it from what they went through.
She don't know, she didn't realize it.
"Besides Red might be handsome in these clothes by chance."
Euna answered her friend with a forced smile when the next thing she pulled from the clothes racks there was a necktie that matched the long sleeves polo she was holding.
She just shook her head. She took Reyna's hands and then returned the clothes to where she got them from.
Reyna is often really crazy. "You're really bad, Reyna, where will Red use those?"
As if the birthday boy was in the office for him to wear it like that.
Yes, Red's birthday is coming soon. That's why she and Reyna are here at the mall today to shop for gifts for her boyfriend.
She just wished that he would be less busy on his big day. It was still his first birthday that they had a relationship.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I just got really excited. But that really that suits Red, admit it," Reyna hissed at her own foolishness.
"Of course. That really suits Red. It's just that he can't use it. That's why I told you that maybe I'll just give him a helmet."
"It's boring! Your boyfriend's helmet is still new for you to give him a new one."
She just shrugged her shoulders in response to Reyna. Yes, she also noticed last time that Red's helmet was new.
To think that the price of that helmet is still playing at 6k to 7k. She didn't even ask about it and in life, especially if you work a lot, you deserve to buy yourself some pricey things that will make you happy.
"Sis, don't be sad about that. Red will come on his birthday or else, he will be afraid that you'll curse him," Reyna joked when her sudden silence was probably criticized.
"You know that's not what I'm sad for."
Reyna sighed. "Euna, do you know that when you're sad, I feel that too?"
Stunned, she faced her best friend. "I—I'm sorry, but I just can't stop thinking," she said sadly. She also smiled bitterly afterwards.
Even though she always told herself that she didn't want to think about anything, she still couldn't help it. Because they are talking about Red here and not just anyone.
No matter how hard she thought about Red, she couldn't bear to be separated from him.
"Hey, Euna Del Fierro, that's right! Let it go and when Red comes I'll try to tease you two all the way," Reyna joked to her. She just shook her head and smiled again at her best friend.
Reyna is like that, lightens everything that is heavy.
"You're really bad, Reyna, oh my. Oh, hey, let's get out of here. I've already thought of a gift to buy for Red and that store has its own store outside and it's not here," Reyna said as soon as she pulled her arm.
"Let's buy the two teenagers a treat. Hen's Donuts is said to be newly opened here, I heard a while ago that they have a grand opening. Of course, what else is the best treat for the kids? That's their favorite!"
THE branch of Hen's Boys Donuts just opened inside the biggest mall in the Metro.
Just far away, Euna and Reyna can see the group of people who are making a fuss to buy there, colorful balloons, loud music that suits the atmosphere that is happening now in the store. There are also people with cameras. It is also inviting to buy because of the big 'Opening Promo' banner posted in front of the store.
The beautiful and smiling model also has a standee...
Her eyebrows furrowed. If she wasn't mistaken she had seen in person the model on the standee in front of the store—this was the woman who had once been a customer of her and Joy!
"I've seen this lady," she said to Reyna when they got to the standee.
"Of course, Haya's famous. She's often in TV commercials. She's the one who always endorses fast food chains," her friend replied to her.
"I mean, I've seen her in person."
Reyna's eyes widened. It turns out that her attention is no longer on her. When she followed what she was looking at, she was also surprised by what she saw…
"Euna, come on, Haya is here! Let's take a picture, quick!"
She just realized that his friend dragged her into the donut shop. Quickly.
"THIS toast is for the comeback of the Hensons CCEO!"
"For the noisy return of the CCEO," said Red's crooked cousins. They held up the beer cans they were holding and chuckled to each other.
"Shut up. You guys are not supposed to call me like that because we are not in the office. I don't even know if I will be able to return to the office. But I guess, with this activity I will act," he honestly said to his cousins.
"There is no problem, as long as we can make it another huge success for the Hensons Boys!"
Red just smiled and shook his head at his cousin Grey. He also foolishly lifted the can of beer he was holding.
If anything, his job is really fun and fulfilling, especially if he comes home with this much success. He was happy that he had once again proven his ability to his grandfather in the short time he had given him.
Well, he won't be called 'Golden Head' for nothing. And he's so grateful to God for that again. His success today is different than his past successes but he admits that his current concerns still defeat him.
How not? A big problem awaits him that involves none other than his weakness... the woman he promised himself he would present at the shrine...
"Ew! Look at the mess you've done! You ugly bitch!" That shrill and artistic voice interrupted the laughter of their cousins.
They are familiar with who the owner of that voice is, they have irritation when they look at her and to her new show.
What's new? As they had expected, all the people there turned to the woman who screamed—Venus all was used to that attention seeker.
Yes, it's Venus again. She actually comes to the Hensons' events even though she's uninvited.
"What's wrong with her this time?" Grey whispered beside him.
Red shrugged his shoulders. He took a sip of his beer before turning his attention to Venus Valderama.
His eyes widened from the beer in the can he was drinking…
Because the only one next to Venus, the only one who taste the curse of the latter now is none other than... Euna!
"Euna...?"
"Euna? The girl you've been talking to—"
Euna is now running out of the store!
Yes, as soon as he saw her and their eyes met, she ran out!
"WHO'S that freaking b`itch? After filling me with a drink, she just ran out! I bet that froglet doesn't even know that her life is less than the price of my dress," Venus said, then she screamed—again.
"Venus, please, stop making a scene," said Haya to her.
Reyna snorted. She calmed herself as she looked at the girl Euna had bumped into earlier. Yes, the drink that her friend was drinking was spilled on this Venus, but that was because of the shock when they saw Red there.
"Miss, I heard that my friend apologized to you earlier," Reyna said to the woman, the model Haya, called Venus. The people there looked at her. "It's obvious that you have a lot of money. If you can't wear the clothes stained but can be washed, just buy a new one instead of being hysterical like you have nothing to buy a new one. Also, before you bet your LV bag, first make sure that you will win the battle with the one you chose to fight against and maybe you will end up crying in regret when someone else got the bag you will love," she said here, before she marched away from that place.
