"No!" Eun-sun declared authoritatively. Hearing that she had subconsciously agreed to Ji-Sang's invite was surprising. She remembered she had received a call from him earlier, but she couldn't remember what they had talked about. Her brain had been so preoccupied with a lot of thoughts – make that alot of the thoughts of her boss – that she couldn't even pay attention to what he had said to her.

Hei-Ran wasn't do surprised when Eun-sun had said, no. As a matter of fact, she wasn't surprised at all. She'd probably would have been surprised had she agreed to it.

"Come-on, don't be that way. it's just a party, and this could be our very last time of seeing him. Don't forget he's our friend. Will you really feel comfortable if he leaves and you don't get a chance to say goodbye?" She asked, her eyes focused on Eun-sun, silently daring her to say yes.

Eun-sun gazed at her, but she couldn't bring herself to say anything. Would she really feel comfortable if Ji-Sang leaves without her saying goodbye? They have been friends for two decades, and even though Ji-Sang had jinxed things up between them by confessing his feelings to her on several occasions, she still regarded him like a friend, and that hasn't changed.

When Eun-sun couldn't say anything, Hei-Ran saw it as a window to press further.

"Eun-sun, I'm sure you know Ji-Sang's deserves better than being ignored by the only he has known all his life. It's just a party, and nothing can go wrong there." 'As far as trouble doesn't come lurking' she said to herself.

Eun-sun signed after hearing Hei-Ran preach. She had to admit that Hei-Ran was right. This was annoying. She really wanted to rest most especially after having a long and hard day with that monsterous man taking the whole of her time.

"So where is this party?" Eun-sun finally asked, as she compromised. For true and real friends we can always go the extra mile, and leave our comfort zone for them just to please them.

"Erm, it's a surprise" Hei-Ran nervously declared when she noticed Eun-sun was finally showing interest. Eun-sun cocked a brow at her.

"A surprise?" She asked, while Hei-Ran who was already excited started pulling towards the bedroom.

"Yes it's a surprise. You can get to see it when we get there, but for now let's get you dressed up and ready to attend it" Hei-Ran as she successfully pulled her into the bedroom. She didn't dare tell Eun-sun that's Ji-Sang's send-off party was actually been held in a club. She was certain this stubborn girl would definitely change her mind.

"You know I don't like surprises, why don't you just tell me" Eun-sun insisted, but Hei-Ran shook her head.

"No i can't"

"I have a feeling I won't like where we're going to, but I can assure if I don't, I won't stay more than an hour. I need to rest properly before morning" She told her.

"One hour is enough. Now go take a quick bath, so I can do your make" Hei-Ran informed her, as she nudged her towards the direction of the bathroom.

"Makeup?" Eun-sun paused on her track and turned to Hei-Ran with questioning eyes.

"Yes makeup. Don't worry it's going to moderate. You can't go to a party without one, even if it's just a send-off party. So hurry up" She said, pushing the stubborn lady into the bathroom and shutting the door after her. She heaved a sigh of relief the moment she closed the door.

She couldn't believe that worked. She had almost doubted herself if she'd be able to convince Eun-sun into going with her. The girl was not an easy girl to convince into doing anything. But luckily for her she was able to.

Pheww!

She moved towards the dressing table to finish getting herself ready so she could help Eun-sun. If she left her to attend to herself they might never leave there, and Eun-sun might just end up dabbing some powder on her face and probably pack her hair in a ponytail, stuff herself in a baggy Jean and big polo, and end it with a sneaker. She had to do better than that. They might just use this party as an escape for fun, and she might just use the opportunity to find herself a guy....a good guy.

Soon Eun-sun stepped out of the bathroom, she was surprised to see Hei-Ran really dressed up.

"I thought it was just Ji-Sang's send-off party, so why are you dressed like that?" Eun-sun pointed her chin to the dress she was wearing.

The dress was a lovely but daunting. It was a form fitting, blue off shoulder number. It showed off her elegant shoulders and neck and the flat plane of her figure. Her brown hair was brushed into a loose top-knot, letting a few tendrils frame her face. Her make was ethereal, suiting her round face just perfectly.

"Too much?" Hei-Ran cocked a brow at her, as she slowly twirled around.

Eun-sun narrowed her eyes at her. 'Too much?' Eun-sun scoffed in her mind.

"What do you think?" She asked, her hands folded across her chest.

Hei-Ran gave a casual shrug, "I don't know that's why I asked you"

"Firstly it's only a party for Ji-Sang which we won't be spending than an hour. We have to come back on time, because I still have to go to work tomorrow. Well you don't have to go, because thankfully your boss gave you a few days off so you can stay at home, but not me"

"Exactly" Hei-Ran chipped as she hopped closer to her. "That is the main reason why I have to look good and have fun. You know this is the first time I'm having some time to myself since I started working with that man. So I was thinking why not use this opportunity to look for a good guy. You know how my mother is always hounding me for a man right? Maybe I can use this opportunity and see someone good, what do you think?" Hei-Ran asked. Her eyes were lit up as she waited for Eun-sun's answer. Intially, she wasn't really looking forward to this party because it was impromptu, but now she now has a new vibe for it.

Eun-sun kept looking at her without saying anything. "Well it that's what you want" She replied. She didn't have any thought about it. Finding a guy didn't fit into any of her plans for the now, but she understood the case of Hei-Ran. If she had a mother like Mrs Su, she wouldn't know what to do either.

She was about walking to grab the dryer to dry her hair when she remembered something. "So what about your adopted boyfriend?" She asked, while Hei-Ran frowned, not because of the fact that she reminded her of the ordeal of having her boss pose as her boyfriend, but because she could see the teasing smile in Eun-sun's eyes.

"Say it one more time, and I'll murder you right now!" Hei-Ran snapped, making Eun-sun laugh. Hei-Ran rubbed on her arm when the memory of that day brought goosebumps to her arms.

'I really need to find a man, ASAP' she said in her mind.

With that in mind, Hei-Ran hurried over to Eun-sun and planted her on the seat in front of the dinning table. Looking at her through the mirror Eun-sun said, "I'm not an invalid, I can manage myself" She tried reaching for the dryer, but Hei-Ran moved her hand away.

"I don't trust you to make yourself look pretty enough. I'll do it. Even though you're not interested in finding a man, you still have to keep me company till I see one, and as such you must look good too" Hei-Ran preached, making Eun-sun sign in resignation. When it comes to stuffs like this, she knew it was better not to banter with the girl, because it would be a fruitless engagement. She let her do whatever she wanted but not without consistent warning to not over do it.

After a half an hour of doing her make-up, combing her hair and going through Eun-sun's wardrobe, Hei-Ran finally found the perfect piece for the night.

The moment Eun-sun saw the dress in her hand she said, "No" prompting Hei-Ran to frown.

"Do you have a knack for always saying no?" She asked sternly.

"All I know is, I'm not wearing that" She declared.

"This is what you have to wear" Hei-Ran refuted.

"I'm not going to a club, so why would I wear that? I'll settle for a jean and a top, that's what I'm wearing"

"Well you don't know where the party is. And aren't you tired of all the jeans and tops you've been wearing. It's getting redundant" She snapped.

"But I have not been wearing them for a while now" Eun-sun said.

"Because you now have a proper job. But tonight you're wearing this, and that's final" She declared.
