Talking Eyes by Mia Lafreve Pedretti (bill gates books to read txt) 📖

a quiet room, where she could fully relax in peace. There wasn't any door though, so I covered the sight of her figure with my body, so the paps couldn't have bothered her with their lenses.

"Finally a break.." She sighed in relieved. "My wrist hurt so bad." She complained massaging it.

"Don't tell me.. It happen every time that you come here?" I asked her.

"No, of course not." She replied. "Your father know me. He wouldn't have never ask me to take off the helmet." She was angry now.

"Are you saying that it's my fault?" I was angry too.

"Yes."

I snorted. "Well, sorry if I didn't know you." I spat back a little annoyed. "It's not like I know every single artist of YG." I knew just a few of them.

She sighed. "Well, maybe you're right." She apologized. "Sorry."

I sighed calming down. "No, it's ok." I felt guilty for got mad at her. "It's my fault if you had to sign all those autographs. Did it still hurts?" I asked looking at her wrist.

"A little, but I'm gonna be fine." She assured me. "I like my fans, but once in awhile I'd like to do normal stuff like come to a comixbook store without causing such noise everytime."

I nodded understanding her frustration. An awkward silent spreaded around then. I wanted to ask her something, but it would have been too rude to ask her such a personal question. I tried to ask her in the most delicately way possible anyway. Without sounding too invasive. "About earlier..." I begun catching her attention.

"What?" She looked at me.

"I..saw who was calling you." I said at low voice.

"Ah..O-kay." She looked a little reluctant to talk about it.

"It was your..Ehm..Oppa. Am I right?" I asked anyway.

"Hm..Ah..Y-yes." She nodded distractly.

"Was he..Your brother or your.. boyfriend?" I kept asking to eager.

"No. No" She denied, but she didn't convince me at all. She noticed it, but kept denying it. "No..He was just..My brother. Yes, My biological brother."

"Oh really?" I lifted my brows.

"Yeah." She nodded. "I assure you."

"Ah ah."

"Really!"

"Ah ah."

"You don't believe me, do you?" She asked after a while.

"Of course not." I said smiling. "You're so bad at lying."

She sighed. "Ok, I admit it, he was my boyfriend." She confessed. "But please, I beg you, don't ever say anything to anybody." She begged me and got closer to me. She rub her hands against each other. Like she was praying me.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anybody." I said to her. "I don't want to be involved in the rumors and in the life of celebrities. I don't like to see paps around my father's shop either. They really bugs me." I said and I meant it.

"Oh grazie! Thank you very much!" She shook hands with me multiple times.

"Your welcome." I shook hands back with her. But I wasn't as happy as her right now. "That's a pity though.." I said after had shook hand.

She looked lost. "Why?"

"Well.." I got closer to her. Slowly and looked straightly in her eyes. "It's a pity, because..I started to like you, Yumi." I knew that she had a boyfriend, but try costed nothing. So I made the first move, I wasn't the type of guy who ruin relationship of others, but she..she's was different. A hot sexy girl like her, couldn't be certainly ignored. She blushed earlier, when were chatting freely, and that certainly meant something. So, I captured the moment and confessed what I felt.

YUMI

I blinked a couple of time before replying. "Like, me?" I asked disbelieved. I was sure my eyes were bigger than normal. "But we've just met!" I exclaimed.

He simply shrugged. "I know, but it doesn't matter that much. We can have time to know better each other." Mamma mia..He's so shyless, And so confident too. How I wish I was confident like him too.

"You can't be serious.." My voice was hysterical.

"I am." He replied.

I shook my head. "This..This is insane." I mumbled to myself.

"Oh come on! Who would not like a girl like you?" He said. "I mean, look at you.."

I looked at myself and then at him. "I'm just a normal girl." I said back. "You perhaps are more attractive than me."

"Me? Oh please, don't try to deceive me. Those annoying girls kept calling me Ajusshi." He waved his hand in direction of the crowd. "Didn't you hear how they screamed your name instead..Yumi! Aah..Yumi! Waa!" He impersonated their girly screams and moves too. That made me laugh.

"Ahahahaa.." I laughed louder. "You're so funny."

He laughed too. But after a while, he returned serious. "Anyway..I really mean it, I like you Yumi." He said with that deep-raspy-sexy voice of his.

That caught me off guard and I didn't have a clue on what to say. I mean, How the hell you reject a sexy and..quite funny like him? My brain came to my rescue saying. Remembering that you have a fantastic, awesome, sexy, nice and funnier boyfriend, known as G-Dragon, that he's coming to pick you up! You Idiot! I thanked my beloved brain before speaking back. "Sorry, but I have a boyfriend. Like I said before." I said without blinking even once, because I really meant those words. "And I don't only like him. I Love him." I added serious.

He didn't get sad nor flinched. He just stared at me. That made feel uncomfortable. "Like I already said, That's a pity." He said getting more closer to me. I stepped backwards.

"For me it's not." I said firm. Even if I was trembling inside.

"I have doubts on it."

I smirked. "You sure are tenacious.."

"Yes, Someone has already said that to me." He smirked too and I blushed. I was sure of it.

Luckily for me, a fan of mine, screamed distracting him. He glanced back to see why in the world the little girl screamed so loud. He went to check out personally. While he was away, I took a couple of breath to calm myself down. When he came back, I was more relaxed and calm. His eyes were widely opened. "Hey, what's the matter?" I asked him a little worried.

"Hem..Someone is looking for you." He said still in his shock's state.

I worried more. "Who?"

He finally made eye contact with me. "G-Dragon."

"What?"


JUNG DAE HOON

"Yes. G-Dragon." I said looking at her. She was shocked, but not as much as me. "He's in the entrance, asking for you." She didn't reply and instead stared at me. Well, not at me, but at the guy behind me. The most famous guy in all South Korea. G-Dragon. Oh God..This must be a dream. And to think that I didn't want to come at work in the first place.

"To be exact, I'm right behind you." He politely said behind me. He didn't act up or brag like he used to do on Tv and I liked that.

"Oh Annyeong hashimnikka G-dragon-shi." I greeted to him, bowing my head.

"Annyeong hashimnikka to you too.." He hung the sentence in the air, waiting for me to introduce myself.

"My name is Dae Hoon. Jung Dae Hoon." I said.

"Nice to meet you Dae Hoon-shi. Don't be too formal with me.." He shook hand with me. Everything seemed so unreal. I mean, I'm shaking hands with G-Dragon..That's unbelievable!

He let go of my hand and glanced at Yumi. I didn't look at her, but focused on him instead. He was super dressed up. Like always. He had on a cool black suit, that was surely a little formal, but thanks to the skinned boots and the hip-hop hat, he didn't look formal at all. On the opposite, he looked like the bad son of a rich ceo. I really liked his style, and music too. He had sunglasses on, but I could still see the bright color of his eyes. Light brown. Unique in all the country. Behind him there was a giant pair of guys. Probably his bodyguards. Well, if I were him, I would go around with them too. Knowing  how crazy his fans were. I still could hear them from here too. Screaming like mad women and pushing the bodyguards to have an autograph..or just see their Bias.

"You know you shouldn't go around without your bodyguards." G-Dragon spoke catching my attention back. He was talking to Yumi. In a way that I would have said very confidential. Like they were friends. Of course they're friends, they came from the same agency. My brain reminded me. Aah...I mentally mumbled.

"I know." Yumi looked both embarrassed and annoyed. "But I still feel strange around them." She justified herself.

He sighed and got closer to her. "It doesn't matter if you don't feel comfortable around them. They are your bodyguards, they just have to protect you Yumi-ha. Not be your friends." He reminded her.

"I know." She repeated a little annoyed. "I just came to get my mangas. I didn't think I needed them." She glanced at me and G-Dragon followed her eyes.

I felt guilty. "Yes, It's kinda my fault..in a certain way." I said.

"Your fault Dae Hoon-shi?" He asked me.

"Yes." I nodded. "She entered in the store wearing the helmet and I asked her to take it off." I explained.

"Why?" He wanted to know.

"Well, I had to ask her that, because of security's matter. You know.." I tried to explain and he understood right away. Thank God! "If I had know that she was so famous, I wouldn't have.."

"No..You couldn't know it." He interrupted me waving his hand. "It's not your fault, you were just doing your job."

"Thank you for understanding." I smiled. He smiled too.

He then returned to look at Yumi. "Are you ok?" He asked with a concerned voice. He checked her up, looking up and down at her figure. Looking for any possible wounds on her skin.

"I'm okay." She assured him, then she looked at me. "Dae Hoon Oppa protected me from the fans. And from the pap's lenses too."

G-Dragon instantly thanked me. "Thank you. Thank you very much Dae Hoon-shi!" He took off his sunglasses and...Hugged me. Yes, you got it right. He hugged me. Like men do obviously. I wasn't attracted to men, but I had to admit that my heart skipped a beat.

He let go of me and thanked me again. "You don't know how much it mean to me." He said, I shyly nodded. Yumi gave him a nudge whispering something incomprehensible to him. He nodded and put his sunglasses back on. Way too confidential..

"G-Dragon-shi." One of his bodyguards called him. "The crowd is growing up, we have to leave the place." He revealed. Damn those fans..I hope They didn't break anything. I glanced behind his bodyguards to be sure, but I couldn't see a thing, because the guys were giant like mountains.

"Okay I got it." He answered. He looked at me. "Is there a back-door here?" He asked me.

"Ah De." I nodded.

"Can you guide us to it? I don't think we can make, it if we pass through the crowd."

"Sure." I was about to guide them, but I stopped in my tracks remembering something. "Wait a sec..I'll be back in just a few seconds." I said to them. They watched me, leaving with a confused look on their faces.

I avoided the bodyguards, not an easy task. Avoid the fans too, it has been double time difficult. They kept screaming, shouting and..even crying, because of their Bias. Freaks.. Anyway, I passed through them and finally I arrived to the destination. Meant, the cash register. Yumi had laid her mangas on the desk and forgot to take them up. I had to give them back to her. She paid for them after all. I grabbed them and put them in a small plastic bag. Then I got back to her and G-Dragon. "Here.." I handed the bag to her. "Your mangas."

"Oh..Thank you Oppa. I totally forgot about them." She thanked me with a hug. Her perfume was really intoxicating. In the good way. She let me go when the bodyguard pressured us to hurry up.

"You're welcome." I said. "Now, if you would like to follow me.." I didn't finish the sentence on
