"The world is changed because you are made of ivory and gold. The curves of your lips rewrite history."

Fell down a rabbit hole and somehow got to reading Oscar Wilde's letters to his lover, John Gary and this quote is from one of those letters and I can't help but think about the whole Alexander Hamilton correspondence between Alex and Henry in RWRB and now I am re-reading it, again :)

Now that I am done with NotMe the series, patiently waiting for a long lost twin to spark my sisterly tingle buds to join the revolution against ideological corruption in the academia in disguise while irrevocably falling in love with her artist frenemy.

Yes my love for 2 specific gang members may be eclipsing here

StarLight - Prologue (on Wattpad) 

Two girls. Two tickets. And an unexpected encounter which left a worldwide celebrity star-struck and one random tourist to Korea with a phone call that changed her life. Sometimes it becomes hard to believe things simply because they are too good to true. And sometimes that in itself is enough to stop these things from happening. The heart often leads people to places the mind deems impossible and that is where it begins for these two. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How much does this lady speak?

This was my first thought when I started hearing her babbling non-stop in English and this is still the thought running through my head as I watched her to see how she’s gonna get out of this little pickle with that tongue of hers. 

I mean does she really think everyone who stands on a ledge is about to kill themselves? Even if I could converse excellently in English I wouldn’t have been able to get a word in edgewise. Even Namjoon hyung would have run for his life.

She is turning back now and looking at me with an expression that can only be described as one that is…absolutely terrified. 

Well, she did get herself stuck in a hole in the ground with a strange man. It would probably be a dream come true if I decide to reverse the situation with a small reveal. But I decided against it. Who knew if she was even sane, what with all that jumping she does into ridiculous conclusions. Does she think everybody who stands on a ledge are going to the kill themselves?!

“Ch-cham-chamshimanyo…can you turn around for a bit? I need to climb up but I really can’t do it without hiking my dress up a bit…so if you would please…”

Should I say it? No…i wanna see where this goes…

 I do turn around.

And walk around the rock we are standing on, onto the mud steps I climbed down to get here in the first place, walk over the ledge of the rock on top and look down. 

She did manage to climb halfway up. 

Impressive, with that attire too…and boots on top of it!

She still hasn’t seen me. I clear my throat from above and she looks up only to let out a yelp and loose her balance. I immediately extend my hand towards her and she attempts to grasp on to me, but ends up scratching me in the process of reaching out to a root sticking out.

“How the hell did you reach up!”

I straightened up and turned my head in the direction of the steps.

She let out a huff and climbed down to walk up the steps, now stomping in my direction. 

“So you just let me do all that acrobatics when you knew there was another way out? Im sure my desperation wasn’t lost within the language barrier. I mean the message would have been clear when I started hitching my skirt up at least!” 

“I am sorry” I say with both my palms raised up in surrender, lest she jumps on me or something. She looked really mad. 

“So much for trying to save your ass!” She scoffs. And with it she kind of shifts her weight to one leg as she crossed her arms. The only problem was she was right at the ledge and her boot slipped. 

I jumped forward and caught her before she fell, my hands securing her firmly by the waist. 

At that moment the stadium floodlights flashed for the test run. The blinding light hit her eyes and for a moment her face was in the spot light revealing dark brown eyes framed by the longest lashes I had ever seen. She soon began blinking and twitching in my arms. I released her. But only after whispering, “So much for you trying to save my ass.”
