19 Chapter 18: Mr. Jung

Star gazes to the window of their car. Her eyes are settled in the window's direction. She remains silent as she continues to look at the view outside the window of their car. Aluna and the others are staring at her lifeless eyes as she sighed for the 3rd time.

"What's wrong with you?" Lily asks.

"Nothing's wrong with me"

"I know what's wrong with her. You miss Axel don't you?" Lala teases.

"Oh my, it hasn't even been a day yet," Aluna says.

Star ignored them and sighed again. She can't stop thinking about what she'll answer to him. She's never been in a relationship before and she doesn't know what it means to be in love with someone. She's scared about going into a relationship. And she doesn't know if she loves Axel. What does it mean to be in love? How would someone know if he/she is in love with someone? Star wants to know the answer to those questions. She remembers how Axel asked her. His eyes were full of sincerity.

They arrived at the studio where they will film the music video for their next comeback. As the other members get off the car, Star remained seated, her gaze still remains at the window. Etilia then loses her patience.

"Hey! Ms. Leader!"

Star turned her head quickly to Etilia's direction. "W-what?"

"We're here at our destination if you haven't noticed," Etilia said sarcastically.

Star mouthed the letter O and got out of the car. "Honestly, what's happening to you?" Lily says and Star didn't answer.

As they enter the studio, they were greeted by the serious face of the director, Mr. Jung, a Korean director who is well-known in the entertainment industry for his foul mouth.

"You're all one minute late"

The girls looked down nervously but Star's mind was too occupied to hear what he said. Mr. Jung noticed how Star's was looking into space. Mr. Jung stood up and slowly walked towards her but Star didn't notice him.

"Ms. Star, may I ask what is on your mind?" he asked with a very scary tone in his voice. His aura was dark and it was as if you could see thunder roaring from his back.

Star, once again, failed to notice him which made his blood boil even more. The other girls decided to step in to save her.

"S-she's just tired, we're very sorry to be late Mr. Jung" Aluna said nervously while trying to save Star from Mr. Jung's wrath.

Mr. Jung did not say anything and instead, he turned his head to her, showing his angry expression. Aluna almost gasped seeing his angry expression. He looked like he was about to explode from anger. Aluna, who was scared of him, retreated from battle like a tiny kitten trying to fight a big dog. 'You're 100 years too early to be fighting with me, young lady' Mr. Jung said in his head.

"Alright, we've wasted enough time already. Get ready for the filming. I need you to be ready in 30 minutes. I don't wanna waste time anymore" Mr. Jung said firmly.
