《Seoul Sisters In Atlantic City》Chapter 2: Can't Hold Us
Advertisement
A man wants to play the hard to get, two can play that game. In reality, although playing hard to get is just a game, sometimes it is actually when a girl grabs a man's attention, just like me. When Nam Lộc returned to the stage and introduced the second singer to perform, I told Ji-eun that the second singer was a male singer. And it was none other than Triệu Khắc Vinh, not that kind of man who has the same name from Cocktail for Love. Oh my gosh! I remembered him as a "playboy" in his music video, and in real life I was just his biggest fan, while he was the one who stalked me. Anyways, I was still into him because of his singing voice that reminded me of Seojun when he sang the first song, a very romantic love song.
Ta quen nhau đã bao lâu rồi, hỡi đêm đêm có hay
Mà giọt buồn hoài vương trên môi mặn đắng
Those were his first lyrics when he sang. He made me feel like he comforted me, "Hey, baby, never fear. I'm right here and I'm not leaving you. No matter where you go, that is where I will be following you." I couldn't believe how he could meet another girl behind my back and love two people in his heart. But right now, I realized he just played his role in his music video that I watched, and he made me feel better when he finished his first song with his last song lyrics.
Này thời gian ơi xin hãy ngừng chốn đây
Để những dấu yêu đong đầy
Một vòng tay anh khao khát một giấc mơ
Anh đã yêu em người ơi...
After that, he began to sing the second song that sounded happier than the previous one. Joh-ahae yeo, Triệu Khắc Vinh, that is what I thought after he finished his performance. "Ji-eun, what do you think about my playboy's performance?" I asked Ji-eun after his performance. She answered as she smiled, "I totally love it, In-na ah. I mean, I can't believe how he looked different when he sang his first song like that. I thought that ever since when I watched his video or movie, I was kind of heartbroken. But right now, when he went onstage and sang his first song, I felt heartwarming just like you. Do you know why? It's because he changed his personality and I understand that no matter where you go, that is where he will follow you." I understood what she said and gave her a bright smile and a big warm hug.

Imagine being given a second chance at life. Not only that but with a life you chose (sort of). This is exactly the situation that our character is in. He was once a Biology Graduate Student involved in a special program in Alaska studying Polar Bears. In an ironic twist of fate his life is ended by exactly that which he was trying to study. Now, in a new world, he refuses to be anything but the top of the food chain. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a story I began writing a year and a half ago and decided to shelf, I'm coming back to it now because I miss writing; however, I have not carved out any time specifically for this and, as of now, it will be something I do on the side for fun. Currently I have 9 chapters plus a prologue written; I'm going to be going through and editting it to be in a present tense (from past), as well as changing some of the story and grammar. Let me know what you think, and thanks for reading.

Against an opponent like that, the only options are to give up or to try again. --- This story is a participant of the WriTEr's pledge.
