#jji.thread

her eyes were closed a bit when she felt someone grab her hand and quickly passed her a towel. the first thing she did was wipe her face off so she could thank whoever it was. “you are a life-saver. i don’t know if you know that but you are, thank you!” god, her hair...this was going to be  long night. “i don’t think i’ll ever try a mud bath now.”

it’s how she found herself wondering over too jinseo. they were on dream team together but they hadn’t talked much about their promotions. (she was too busy being covered in mud.) so, it was a pleasant surprise finding him here as well. “hey, what’s up.” jihye gave him a grin, “i didn’t realize you be in here as well, i can admit i zero’d in on my character, are you excited?”’

there was the latte art and that was nice and cute. if not a little..awkward. still, she wasn't sure what to expect for her second one. and when she found it was indoor climbing, she found herself liking it. it felt like they really did think outside the box. it was something she never tried but that didn't mean she wasn't open to it. she arrived pretty early, wanting to scope it out before it was time to really record. she had brought her own climbing out after looking into it as well.

so when it came time to actually record ( once she changed and readied herself. ) jihye was ready. she spent some time speaking directly to the camera before they told her, her date was ready. ( aaron right? ) the place wasn't too busy, she saw a few other people but her focus was on the one that the camera was leading her too. when she finally made it to him, a friendly smile was on her face and when she spoke, it was as loud and noticeable as ever. "hello! i'm jihye." she bowed her head and then looked towards the climbing wall. "have you been indoor climbing before?"

there was about an hour. one hour that she had to herself. an hour before she put herself into ‘training mode’ and focused on legacy for the day. though, she was still dressed for training, there was was a camera in her hand and her the strap was around her neck. it also didn’t take long until she found one of her favorite subjects. minjun. in a few quick movements, she was by his side with her camera at the ready. 

“how’s my favorite model doing today?” minjun was still a little shy in front of her camera but he’d get used to it soon enough. it hadn’t been long since she sort of strong armed him into being her model. strong armed him gentle at least. “can i take a few shots today? i won’t take too much of your time.” 

but she needed to work on it, which was how she found herself in a room with jiae, working on their ( her. ) audition. “you’re going to audition for the drama right?” jiae wasn’t apart of her group yet but she knew the other girl wanted to act as well. “do you have any idea of what you’re going to do for the audition? tell me because i’m almost out of ideas.” she sighed, leaning back in her chair. “i’m already tired, this is what getting old feels like.” 

it was just a little that bothered her.

a small thing really. something she could ignore most of the time. most of the time. it had happened again sometime his morning, jihye had felt a pair of eyes on her. looked up and saw a trainee staring. hunji? it took some asking but she was fairly sure that was the name she came up with. and honestly, the looking wasn't the bad part about it.

no, it'd give her dirty looks.

then quickly look away and for thee most part, jihye managed to ignore it. she was an adult. an adult until it happened again today, earlier in the morning. her intention had been to do something then but one of her friends pulled her away and she forgot about it. until she saw him alone in one of the practice rooms. it was a good as time as any. jihye walked in, closing the door behind her to get his attention. and when she had, she crossed her arms.

"do you have a problem with me?" it came out harsher then she intended to sound. her satoori came out in full force and she had a habit of sounding a little rougher. "every-time i see you in the halls, you're always looking at me strange so what's the problem?

“i’ll pay but i’m lonely and well that’s pretty much it.” there was nothing more to explain. “i’ll be bored until i have a new job booked.” and when would that come? she wasn’t sure but she’d find out, soon enough. hopefully. “so what do you say?”
