"Wow... she's pretty."

"She's lucky to be born with such a face, so stunning."

"Look, she's pretty beautiful."

Pretty. Beautiful. Stunning.
Those are just some random words I hear mumbling about as I walk through my street... well, I have to get going to the train so I don't be late for work... If I do, the boss would just ramble and ramble on, but he might end up just brushing it off because I'm so 'beautiful'. Sometimes, I wish I really wasn't. Being the hot topic in conversations, or even being asked by pesky guys asking if I'm a celebrity. Then again, there are some random photographers asking if I'd want to do a photoshoot to spread the word about my looks. But, I, most of the time just lightly refuse, and walk away. And perhaps the worst of all, being constantly looked at by creepy old men.

Well, here I reached the train, and I'm off to my workplace. Maybe I should get a driver's license.

Oh, right, well... my name is Ji-Ah. I work at Accounting, and nothing much really. All my workmates tell me how I do my skincare routine, how I do my makeup... but let me tell you this. Just like every other normal person. That's all there really is to it. They also tell me if I have any crushes, but I'm not so sure if I'd be ready for a relationship. Sometimes, I just want to be normal. Just to fit in, really. I have received countless amounts of confessions, but I'd just turn them down sadly. Like I said, I don't think I'm really ready for being a girlfriend, then turning into a wife. And then possibly having children. Could I really tackle having children, and also still working?

My phone suddenly beeps up with notifications, and I begin to check them. Oh dear... really? It's from Ha-Rin.
Let me tell you this, she's absolutely annoying. I'm always bombarded with messages from her.

'Hi Ji-Ah! You have to tell me if you're going to get Soy Sauce Crab, and of course we'll be drinking soju! Plus, we are going to do it with all our other workmates. Sooo? Are you coming? It's on Saturday! I want a reply ASAP.'

Gee. How do I respond to this? Yes or no? Well, work is pretty exhausting sometimes, my arms could get a little break, and I feel like I need some soju in my body. I guess... I guess this is a chance to communicate with others... so... it's Thursday today, and it's in about 3 days. I could make a decision in that time. I'm usually never that talkative, maybe I could learn a thing or two about my workmates who I barely even speak a word to. Well, I'll think about it. But I won't guarantee that I will go. I place my phone back in my pocket, and watch the train go by...

Well, I reached my destination. I hop off the train, and take a deep breath. Okay Ji-Ah, another day at work. It shouldn't be too hectic.
