《The Journey Towards Stardom》Chapter 2 - Who, Mi-joo?
Advertisement
Faer was trying to get down from the bed, even though he wasn't hurt too bad, his body still protested. At that moment the door to his room opened and a young female nurse wearing a mask came in.
"Oh, you're awake? How are you feeling?"She asked as she removed her mask. Faer forgot to breathe for a second.
The young nurse who seemed to be Asian was wearing white scrubs but even that could not hide the perfectly curved body. Her hair looked silky smooth, tumbling down to her back. A pair of warm dark eyes fell upon him and her smile showed her pure white teeth. Her lips were the perfect shape and color, both small and red. If she was this beautiful natural then he wondered what she would look like in makeup. Her beauty wasn't the only noteworthy thing about her though; it was her aura that gave off the feeling of purity. Honestly, she was absolutely flawless.
"Like I was caught up in an explosion." Faer tried not to let his emotions seep through his voice. He failed. Miserably.
The nurse looked at him while checking his vitals or so Faer thought. He wasn't sure what she was doing but after she was finished she told him that he had a concussion and that he was very lucky to survive such a thing. Knowing that she was right, he didn't retort but a frown still made it's way to his face as he tried to control himself.
Luckily a minute or so later a middle-aged female doctor came in.
“The situation now is that you’re not in any danger, however, we'd like to keep you a while longer for observation.” The middle-aged doctor began to speak after she had finished inspecting Faer's papers.
“That's fine, I'd also like to be certain everything's OK before leaving. Thank you for taking care of me.”Faer, who was in a good mood now smiled as he replied back.

The Doctor, Leah Stewart, according to her nametag, smiled back at him since Faer was so polite. “If there are any problems in regards to your body, just tell Nurse Jo Mi-joo about it and myself or another Doctor will be immediately informed.”
Faer nodded, and Dr. Stewart then left the room. Only the beautiful nurse Jo Mi-joo remained.
Closing his eyes, he took a well-deserved nap.
After several hours, he awoke to the same white ceiling but this time he could hear the voices of people in his room. Turning his head towards the commotion, he found his sister and Jo Mi-joo huddled together whispering something. The nurse's face was beet red and Fleur wore a scheming smile. What was this girl doing now?
"Ahem." Faer cleared his throat to get the attention of the two ladies.
"FAER!" Fleur shouted while she ran towards him with tears and snot dripping down her face.
Seeing his sister crying made Faer feel awful, he hated making her cry.
"Look, I'm fine, aren't I? Why are you crying? You’ll ruin your make up."
Fleur sniffed while nodding her head. Normally she was only this obedient to her brothers, everyone else was another story, and she didn't even listen to their parents. Really, this girl was a cause for worry.
"Are you OK now? When can you leave? Let me take you home OK? Mom, dad, and Gento should be leaving the Bahamas soon."
"Why? Tell them I'm fine and to continue with their vacation. I'll be discharged really soon anyways. They'd just be wasting their time."Faer waved his hands vigorously to reject that plan. No way would he let those Son-cons come here.
All this time the nurse Mi-joo was standing there looking at the sibling's interactions. She thought for sure the Faer that everyone said was mysterious would be attractive just as the rest of his family. Whether he was attractive or didn't have anything to do with her anyway, she was just glad that at least one person survived that catastrophe and seeing the love between the brother and sister made her smile unconsciously. Suddenly hearing a sharp intake of breath, Mi-joo turned to where the sound came from and saw Faer with his eyes wide open and his body shivering. Not understanding his reaction, she tilted her head to the side in confusion. That only seemed to have made it worst for Faer.

"Don't worry he's fine." The sister replied to Mi-joo's unasked question.
She wanted to laugh, what an unusual guy.
Faer who was dumbstruck by that undeniably beautiful smile tried to gather his scattered wits and respond to whatever Fleur was saying.
"Um yeah."
Fleur seeing how her brother was acting, hid a smile behind her hand and told him she'd deal with his discharge and that she'd be back soon. Before stepping out, she gave him a wink.
Sometime later after Nurse Mi-joo left, Faer breathed a sigh of relief. That was truly too dangerous, it seemed counterproductive to have her work as a nurse since she could make peoples heart stop with her beauty. Shaking away those strange thoughts from his head, for he knew he didn't have the slightest chance with someone like her, he started to get himself dressed in preparation to leave the hospital.
Though he had yet to realize it, the air around Faer was different from before. It was somehow sharper, and it made people feel a little pressure. His posture was different as well, normally he'd be slouching a little but his back was ramrod straight at this moment. All these nuances went unnoticed by Faer but his sister who was one of the closest people to him could tell that he was a little different. However she never paid much mind to it, being his twin, Fleur knew that her brother wasn't an ordinary man. Her brother Faer was the coolest!
Faer's whole body shivered as he got an unpleasant feeling for a second. Right then, his cell phone started ringing.
"Princess, Princess, Magical Princess ..." his ringtone resounded throughout the ward. With tears streaming down his face at the embarrassment and all the people staring at him, he answered the phone.
"H-hello?" Ahhh so awkward.
"We're good to go, I'm getting the car, so meet me out the entrance." Fleur said before hanging up the phone.
When he was outside the hospital, he saw a commotion. Walking closer to see what was happening, he saw that his sister was surrounded by a bunch of two-bit thugs.
Is this the legendary cliché: Delinquents trying to force a girl to go out with them? No, no, no, shaking his head to get rid of that thought, he approached the car and stood in front of his sister. Fleur was wearing a disguise but her attractiveness could not be hidden. If these poor guys knew who she was, they wouldn't be within 50 feet of her vicinity, No, even 50 feet was too little.
"Get in the car sis." Anyone could see Faer was shaking a little but he gritted his teeth and stared down at the thugs. His height was to his advantage this time as he was literally looking down on them. Faer wasn't quite sure if that was the reason they took a step back. He was glad for that though, it meant he could take this moment to run into the car and have his sister hightail it out of there.
Chance!
Taking advantage of their confusion, he rushed into the car and as soon as the door was closed, the siblings took off like a bat out of hell.
S-scary! Thugs are the real thing. Sweat dripped down Faer's face now that he could finally breathe easy. Let's not go through that again.
Seriously, being beautiful was a calamity, Faer thought as he glanced at his sister.

Lost souls, will be rewritten soon. (Old version)
In a world where mages stand above the peasants, the nobles, and the law, it is not surprising that everyone wants to learn magic. Five siblings from a village in the middle of nowhere felt the same. Unfortunately, a dragon brought ruin to their home, eventually cornering the five blood brothers. Luz, the eldest brother, ignored the warnings of his ancestors for the sake of their survival. Using an ancient teleportation spell, he and his siblings were sucked into a portal leading to God-knows-where. In a foreign place far from home, Luz carries the burden of disobeying his ancestors and losing his younger brothers. He sets off to reunite his siblings and slay the dragon that destroyed their village while only being equipped with one useless space spell that drains all his mana after one usage. Author's note: English isn't my first language and this is the first novel I tried writing, which is why some of the earlier chapters aren't that good, even though I grew better over time. I'm still in the phase of editing a lot of my earlier chapters. But unfortunately, I haven't yet found any time for it. Daily updates are to be expected till we reach chapter 100. If your comment motivates me, I might upload up to five chapters.^^
