It was Elaine’s first day in her class. Talking about first it was her formal first day since the day before was just an orientation day. Since her aim was to be a criminal detective and investigator, she had chosen the subjects that would help her with it. Sitting on the middle row of the classroom, Elaine waited patiently for the professor to come while the other students had already formed their own group and were gossiping, laughing once in a while. Elaine’s gaze darted over at a group of students who were talking and chatting by making a circle and felt left out. But it was fine. She was not here to make friends and have fun. She had a dream and that dream did not need any friends for completion. And she was not alone. She had found her senior brother Drake from her village, Yuri; a senior who loved and cared her like his own sister and a very attractive but annoying face appeared in her mind. ‘Shoo..shoo..not you.’ Elaine

Seeing the girl standing like a drowned puppy without moving an inch Michael  felt a little bad for her and softened down a little bit. “Get in. We need to talk.” He spoke gently so as not to scare her like he did before. Elaine was still a little hesitant to accept his request or order whatever. “Are you getting in or should I carry you in myself?” He looked angrily at Elaine who immediately opened the door of the car and entered inside in one swoop. “I am coming in myself..” She gave a wary smile to Michael all the while she maintained distance from the devil who seemed to be in a bad mood. After the situation calmed down a little bit, he ordered Kim to start driving once again to the same shopping mall. “Kim, drive to the shopping mall.” Leaning back on his seat he closed his eyes. “Yes Boss.” Kim too was silent and only responded when he was asked to. His face which looked angelic normally had lines of worries

The sound of a heel clicking on the marble floor echoed form the doorway. Even by the sound of steps the man who had been impatiently waiting for the girl to get dressed and come back to him already knew who it belonged to.For the first time he did not feel the sound of the heel clicking to be irritating. Rather he felt it sounded classy and elegant.The door to the room opened and in walked a girl in a pure blue dress, slowly lifting the corners of her dress so as not to trip on them.Finally the wait was over. A smile left his mouth but he quickly his it behind his apathetic face mask. Michael sat on the couch his eyes eying every movement of the girl the moment she entered the room.“So you  are here finally.” Michael threw aside the magazine he was reading, all of his attention focused on the person before him.“Yes, I guess I made you wait long right?” Elaine fiddled with her fingers looking at Michael, her entire

“Who is that woman?” The reporter from a famous board casting company squinted his eyes at the couple who were walking towards the entrance, hand in hand.“Is she a new actress?? A rookie perhaps?” They made their own theories as they tried finding the identity of Elaine.Young artists used any method such as climbing up to the bed of sleazy old man get resources and roles in dramas.Since Elaine was an attractive young lady, it was only natural for them to have doubts.“Is she daughter of some wealthy business man or a business tycoon?” Someone else suggested and within a short time everyone was searching for her identity but in vain.People were negative minded after all. They tried finding faults with Elaine before they even knew her whole story. By stepping on someone else and by making them low they tried o uplift their status.“She must be a gold digger..Look at her dress..” A woman spoke

“Don’t be afraid..I will be here.” Michael tightened his hold on Elaine as they approached the crowded place with many eyes pasted on them. In their eyes were surprise, shock, jealousy and envy mixed. “I am not afraid stupid…” Elaine let out a merry laughter looking at Michael who seem to be panicking more than her. Was he worried about her? But she quickly waved off the thought. ‘Nah, that won’t be possible…don’t delude yourself Elaine.’ She scolded herself as she knew this day and his gentleness was just a mere transaction between both of them. ** While the young women were secretly cursing Elaine for being together with Michael even though she was a nobody figure in the party, the rich and young master of the rich families had their eyes measuring Elaine with their lustful eyes. Aurora was a beauty but the new girl before them was even a greater beauty. They could feel that she was still a young girl and from the fresh look on her t
