Whenever Somi feels like the world is being cruel to her, she tells herself one thing.

"Every fairy tale begins in pain, before they have their happy ending."

And if anybody is meant to be in a fairy tale, it should be her. She, Jeon Somi,was the ideal star for a Disney Princess movie. Last time that Somi checked in the mirror, she swore to God (blasphemy aside) that she has the making of a Disney Princess. She has her lethal eye smile and milky white skin, and a fiery soul that could move people to tears.

Screw Mulan! So what if she pretended to be some dude? fell in love with some general? then she saved an entire country? That's like a freaking plot to a k-drama! The Jeon Somi story has more fairy tale princesses involved.

Speaking of Mulan... As she was surrounded by lush greenery and brilliant blue sky, Somi felt like it was the perfect time to shoot her OST MV inside her head.

"Look at me, you might think you see who I really am... But you'll never know me."

But right before she could belt it out, someone decided to cockblock her fantasy.

"Oh I do know you, Somi !"

"Oh hello sir..." Somi giggles embarrassingly, hoping she could melt the heart of her community service leader with her eye smile.

From the stern look from his narrowed eyes, it was obvious that he was a heartless mutant who doesn't appreciate the beauty of God's creation right in front of him.

"What are you doing just standing there?" He strides closer, trying to intimidate the girl to work. "You're supposed to be here for your community service."

"But Sir... I'm Somi ... My enigmatic presence is my service to the community."

The instructor was ready to fire back, but decided not to mess with Jeon anymore if he wants to live in this world stress free.

"Sir! Sir!" She calls out as her instructor shoved a rake in her hand. "SIRRRRR!!!! What am I going to do with this thingy?! SIRRRRR!!!!!"

But whatever, her instructor's rudeness is not going to ruin her from her epic music video. So, with her rake as a makeshift microphone and the park as her setting, she's ready to rule the Disney Soundtrack Chart.

"Who is that girl that I see?"

"Unnie it 's me!"

"Unnie?!" Somi wonders who could be calling her unnie.

"UNNIIIIIEEEE?!"

"Who on Earth- is- Oh..." The girl finally realized who was calling her. Shuhua awkwardly perched on top of the jungle gym.

Shuhua used her cupped hands as her imaginary megaphone as she yelled at Somi down below.

"What are you doing here, unnie? I don't see you as an outdoorsy type."

"Me either." Somi agrees. "That's why I feel so weird being surrounded with so much ummm... green, tall things."

Shuhua's doe eyes flutter in confusion. "You mean trees?"

"Yes those... and these green itchy things on the ground."

"The grass?"

"Oh yes, those things. So, how about you? What are you doing here? Or on top of this giant thingy to be more specific?"

Somi instantly realized that she hit on a sensitive topic, when the usual bright puppy eyes of Shuhua were now suddenly hazed with sadness. Somehow that didn't bode well with Somi. Shuhua was much closer to her other "friends" Moonbyul and Soyeon, but she had always liked the girl especially for Soojin. Yes, Shuhua might be a little too hyperactive for her taste, but her perky innocence always has an effect even to the Scrooges and Grinches of the world.

"Hold on."

Shuhua gasped inwardly as she saw the usual classy and composed Somi starting to climb up the monkey bars.

"Wow... that was a workout." Somi catches her breath after finally getting on top. "Oh wow..."

The older girl exclaimed as she figured out the reason for Shuhua's place. "Got a great view from here, huh?"

The taller girl could only heave a deep sigh, from where she was standing, she could see Soojin over a few feet from her, busy supervising the construction of the booths.

"I wonder if she thinks of me." The younger girl thinks aloud. "Like when she's busy, do I cross her mind?"

"Is this about Soojin?"

Shuhua answers Somi with a feeble nod, before covering her face.

"I... I... I think I messed up."

"That's the difference between you and me. It's that I'm perfect and well... you're almost there. So, take it from someone like me, Shuhua. It's nothing to worry about."

"But I hurt Soojin badly! So bad! I don't think she will ever forgive me."

"Ahhh... Seo Soojin might look and act like such a biyatch."

Shuhua's face quickly scrunches in irritation.

"YAH!" Shuhua pulls her fist out. "Don't talk about my girl like that!"

"Oh lighten up you little girl. I know you sometimes feel that way too."

The puppy eyed girl blinks thoughtfully before finally agreeing.

"Well, she's not really doing that because she's mean. She does that because she's scared of getting hurt."

It broke Shuhua's heart at that idea.

"I didn't mean to hurt her... How can I be so stupid?"

"Why? What did you do?"

"Well, Soyeon and Moonbyul unnie-"

Somi doesn't have to listen to everything to figure out what's wrong.

"Yup. You're right, you are quite stupid. Why did you listen to two people who only get poke in facebook? You should listen to me who has experience in both love and heartbreak."

"Then, what can I do unnie?"

"Eh?"

In all honesty, Shuhua's question caught Somi off guard. No matter how many times she claims to be a master of love, no one really takes her advice, until now.

"Well ummm... actually... Just be yourself."

"What?"

Oh crap. Now that Somi thinks about it, being yourself is like the worst advice to give to a girl with such sorrow.

But she can't back away from her advice now. If she backs out, she will lose credit. All she could do is stick with it and hope it works.

"You have to be yourself because that's who Seo Soojin fell in love with. Be the cute, bubbly Shushu that does this silly love sick stuff."

Oh em gee... Somi credits herself, she just blew herself away with her advice, she might even take it.

And it seems Somi isn't the only one who thinks the advice was effective, as Shuhua smiles wistfully.

"I know Soojin is not really the most expressive" Somi continues "But it doesn't mean she doesn't love you. In fact, you make her happier than anyone else in this world."

Shuhua looks at the older girl with a more positive glint. Somi smiles back, giving the younger girl a soft squeeze in her shoulder.

"Being in a fight is nothing to be scared about. Fighting makes relationships stronger and maybe even sweeter. What girls love is knowing that their special somebody is willing to do anything just to win them back. And as far as I know... You're quite a smooth operator Yeh Shuhua."

"Me?"

"Yup... You must be pretty special if you get Seo Soojin to fall for you."

Shuhua's lips curve into a sweet grin after hearing that. Soojin was special, but her... she never really considered herself as one. If she could describe herself, she was more persistent.

It stung her a bit at first, how the only person she wants to be with sees her as this annoying kid. But she always thought that if you really like someone, you do what you can to win their heart. Being special has nothing to do with it, it was all persistence.

And if she was able to make Soojin slowly fall for her then, then she was sure she could make Soojin forgive her right now.

"Yes. I can do it. Thank you unnie!"

"Su- Yah!" Somi yells out as she sees Shuhua jumping down all the way to the ground. "Well... What do you know, Somi just saved the day."

***

If there is one thing that people don't know about Seo Soojin, it's that she's an expert on showing emotions opposite of what she's feeling. Like right now, she might look like she's all about business as she walks around the booth areas, but truth was, her mind is completely somewhere else.

The only thing that jolted her back was when she saw Soyeon, Byul, Minnie, Sorn and a sleepy looking Miyeon working on their booth.

The president starts to pedal back knowing that she's not ready to face any scrutiny from her friends.

"SEO SOOOOJIIIIIIN"

Too late...

As she walks back to her friends, she wonders if she has a built in radar that her friends can just ping her from a distance.

"Come here and hang out with your unimportant friends, you... you... you..." Moonbyul scratches her head trying to find a good name for Soojin... until ding...

"You are a very important person!"

"Oh ummm..." Soojin took a deep breath, looking away to avoid Minnie's scalding stare. "I would want to Byul, but ummm I got stuff to do. So, maybe later..."

"SUNBAE!" One of Soojin's minions chirps in "Go have fun, we will take care of everything!"

Oh crap...

"No... no... no it's okay. I don't want to burden you guys."

"Pfft!" Soyeon snorted. "You're the president, you're supposed to burden your people!"

"Yes sunbae!" Soojin minion number two agrees and starts nodding incessantly. "Please burden us!"

Soojin can't believe she got hanged by her very own people.

"See? Come hang out with us!"

Soojin could try objecting, but it was useless as her friends already dragged her back inside the booth.

"What do you think?" Moonbyul sighs proudly as they show Soojin their little chapel.

Soojin was actually surprised at how well the whole chapel setting turned out. The place was a subtle shade of pink which Somi is probably to blame, but it has an air of romance to it. She wouldn't mind actually having a fake marriage here. Wait... Did she say she wanted to get a fake wedding?

"So, Soyeon is going to be like a priest/ pastor or whatever. I'm like the coordinator and stuff, Sorn and Miyeon are like the bounty hunters."

"Bounty hunters?"

"You know... they will try to catch the couples."

"Minnie and Somi will switch around with the wedding songs."

"So, why don't Sorn and Somi do the bounty hunting?"

"Well, Somi is not really the chasing kind. Sorn and her bouncy self will catch them and Miyeon will torture... I mean... plead them to come."

"Sounds effective."

"Isn't this like the perfect place to marry Shuhua?"

Jeon Soyeon, champion of saying the most awkward things in the most awkward times.

"My sister will marry you in a garbage dump if you let her." Minnie mutters loud enough for everyone, especially Soojin to hear.

"Ummm... why don't we go grab some drinks?" Moonbyul motions the other girls. "Soojin, Minnie... why don't you two stand guard and protect this booth, while we go get drinks?"

"Well... ummm..."

Soojin didn't get a chance to object as the rest of the girls flowed out of the booth (Except for Miyeon who remained glued on her spot.)

"It's okay..."

"Okay." Miyeon bowed down, but not before shooting Soojin a death glare. "Call me when she bothers you."

It was more like a warning for Soojin, than a suggestion to Minnie. Even if the two in laws were stuck together, they ended up being caught up in awful silence.

"You're a great person, Soojin." It was Minnie who broke into the silence. "You have all these people admire you and worship the ground you work on."

"I just do what I have to do."

"Shuhua is one of those people. But in a way, she's different. I wish I could describe it. But well... Shuhua is... well... Shuhua... That's the description itself."

"She is... isn't she?" Soojin agreed, smiling at the thought.

"A kid who's just doing what her heart desires. You are obviously a much better person, but Shuhua is obviously the more in love one."

Minnie's last words start to ring inside Soojin's head.

"More in love?"

"Yes. In a relationship there is always someone who loves more. We're both in a relationship and we have to admit that in a relationship, we both like the feeling of being spoiled. But you know what's amazing about my kid sister? She doesn't care about getting spoiled, all she loves to do is spoiling you. She loves seeing your reaction from one of her stupid, crazy acts of love."

"I care about your sister too." Soojin reasoned out, refusing to be backed down to a corner. "I...I... really..."

"You really what?" Minnie pried more.

The blush on Soojin's face deepens even more. "You know what I mean."

"Look, I don't know what you and my sister are fighting about."

Soojin turns cautiously away from Minnie, hoping to mask her embarrassment.

"No... I'm lying." Minnie waves her off "I do."

"WHAT?!" Soojin screeches in embarrassment, her cheeks quickly flushed red. "Did Shu-"

"No... she didn't. I just sorta figured it out. Don't worry my sister might be a hopeless idiot, but she doesn't kiss and tell."

"I ummm... It's my fault" Soojin admits. "I forced Shuhua into a corner, and when she started to fight back. I walk away. I should have... We should have talked about it."

Soojin was expecting the worst from Minnie. Could she blame her? If someone hurt Yuqi the way she hurt Shuhua, she would be pissed too. But Minnie was more compassionate, offering a sincere smile.

"Hey. It's not me who you should try to explain it to."

"I don't know what to tell Shuhua."

"It'll come out when you see her. You're not going to be graded or judged for those things. If you stumble, if you say something wrong, it's okay. Shuhua won't probably listen to any word you say, all she cares about is that you're there."

"Is this over?"

Both girls turned around and saw Minnie's fuming girlfriend by the door.

"I don't like seeing this Soomin pairing right here."

"There is no Soomin pairing, babo."

"Oh yeah? Then good because if there is. I'm not gonna like it."

"That's enough talk. Minnie can say all the advice she can give, but it's up to you to act on it."

"I will... I will... Thanks Minnie."

"Oh what a small world, there she is..."

Everyone turned to the window and saw the girl armed with a pensive look on her cute face and a bouquet of handpicked (or stolen from the park) flowers.

"Awwww... so cheesy." Moonbyul elbowed Soojin.

Shuhua's whole vision were locked up in the beautiful girl waiting for her, that she didn't notice the-

"!!!"

***

"Oh my God!!!"

Everyone gasps as they see the boxes collapse on Shuhua. But like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Shuhua managed to crawl her way out of the rubble.

"I'm okay... I'm okay..." Shuhua reassured the worried people, waving them off.

"Oh God! Shu! You're bleeding!!!"

"R-really?" The delirious Shuhua exclaimed. "I didn't even notice it..."

She smiled, not noticing the blood dripping from her head.

"I'm okay really..."

The whole place gasps on cue, as Shuhua was about to pass out.

"C'mon! I'll take you to the clinic!"

***

Shuhua didn't even realize she passed out, until she woke up in the school clinic. She tried sitting up but fell back on the bed again.

"Don't get up yet..."

Wait... that husky voice...

She must have really hurt her head so badly that she imagined hearing Soojin's voice. Shuhua used to wiggle and waggle out, but these past few days were just too much for her to bear that she just lay there.

"Just rest for now Baobei."

Shuhua's puppy eyes flicker in surprise. It does sound like Soojin.

"S-Soojin?"

"Get some rest Shu."

It was really her... It was Soojin... Her Soojin is right there with her in that clinic.

"You're here." Shuhua took Soojin's hand, fearing that Soojin might go if she didn't hold on. "Wait... I got you some flowers, it's here."

Soojin chuckles softly, undeniably missing the younger girl's playful antics.

"I got it. They're beautiful. Thank you."

"You're welcome." The girl doesn't seem to mind about the four stitches, as her lips spread in a goofy grin.

"Ms. Seo..."

"Oh nurse Kim? Hello..." Soojin politely bows down to the nurse.

"Oh I'm not a nurse yet, Ms. Seo..." The student nurse chuckles in embarrassment, yet deep inside is loving the attention of the tanned beauty. "Just call me, Jiyeon."

"Just call me Soojin too. Ms. Seo is too serious."

"Your friend is going to be okay, you two should enjoy the festivities outside."

"No, we're okay. If it's okay with you, I would like for us to stay here for a while until I'm sure Shuhua is feeling better."

"No problem! Anything for you, Ms. Seo" The student nurse no doubt fell for the stoic president's charms. "Just promise to lock up, okay?"

"Oh yeah... Jiyeon... by the way."

"Yes?"

"She is not my friend." Soojin corrected her.

Shuhua's ego completely deflated after what Soojin had just uttered.

"She's my girlfriend."

The student nurse was left with a confused and disappointed look, and just barely nodded. After hearing the door shut behind them, finally cue Soojin to exhale.

"Jinjin?"

"Hmmm?"

"You don't have to stay here, I know you have to run things. I'll be okay."

"Shhhh... Don't worry about it." The older girl presses a kiss on Shuhua's temple. "I got my VP to take care of things for today."

"Wait?" The girl's doe eyes widened in surprise "You have a VP?"

"Yes... I do silly. Just go to sleep, my monkey. I won't go anywhere."

Shuhua opens her mouth ready to reassure Soojin that she doesn't need to sleep. But just when she thought it would roll off easily from her tongue, she realizes that lying is much harder than she thought.

"Shuhua?" Soojin shot upright, worried about the younger girl sobbing quietly. "What's wrong? Does something hurt?"

"I was so worried that we were finally over, that I blew it and you won't give me another chance. I... I try to do something but you don't seem to forgive me. I just don't know what to do."

Shhhhhh... Soojin could only hush the girl gently hoping to calm her down. "I'm sorry Shu."

Soojin's apology confused Shuhua.

"For what? You didn't do anything wrong."

"Yes I did, baby." Soojin says regretfully, pressing an apologetic kiss on Shuhua's forehead. "I try to force you to do something you didn't want to."

"No!" Shuhua quickly took Soojin's hands. "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I... I... I don't know what to do. Out of all the people in the world, you could choose... you picked me. I know that's a good thing, but it's quite scary for me."

"Can I?"

"Can you what?"

Soojin answers Shuhua by slowly crawling on the clinic's bed beside her. The university clinic is not really the most romantic place in this school, but it made Shuhua giggle foolishly.

"What's up with you?" Soojin asked the guffawing girl beside her.

"Remember our first valentine? In the hospital hallway?"

"Oh yes. I fainted, that was quite embarrassing."

"Nooo... don't be." Shuhua cooed at the blushing girl beside her, gently rocking Soojin in her embrace. "I guess I worry too much about you."

"Hmmm?" Soojin raises her head to see the expression on the younger girl's face. "Why?"

Shuhua shifted closer, closing in every inch of space between them.
