Summary: Taemin got tired of living in the same
place and wanted a better future for him and his lazy brother. So he got
a new job in a famous modeling agency. He was earning more money, but
still not enough because he was only working as a make-up assistant. But
after some weeks of working he found that the agency was looking for
new models and were doing a contest. So he immediately got the idea to
get his brother into participate. But then he found a little problem
after he brought his brother to the agency. They weren’t looking for a
male model but a female model. But he was determinate to get out of the
little rat hole where he lived, and it didn’t care if he had to
sacrifice his brother as he make his brother into his sister.
Part 4
“Please~”
“No”
“I am begging you~”
“No”
“Would you even think about it?”
“No”
“Okay, just let me explain yo-”
“No”
“At least let me finish what I am trying to-”
“No”
“Argggh!” Taemin growled in frustration after hearing his brother rejection over and over again.
.
.
It was already Monday, the day that ‘Eunsook’ had to go to the modeling agency to sign her contract and like it was expected Onew and his brother weren’t even near the modeling agency.
.
.
The idea of winning the modeling contest was already lost in a corner somewhere inside his head and so he decided (Taemin decided for him) that he should move on and continue with his life. And so he did. He got hire, again, in his last job and so he thought that he was going to continue like that. But he didn’t expect to find an imperative Taemin waiting for him with good news. And well… after that, let’s say that everything didn’t went as Taemin had planned it in his head.
.
.
The time was passing fast, the sound of the clock in the living room emitting sounds that reminded Taemin that every second counted and soon the day was going to end. The younger was still trying to convince his older brother that they needed to go to the modeling agency before they change their mind about giving him a contract, But Onew was still saying no.
.
.
“Maybe we didn’t win for a reason so look at this like a second chance”
“And maybe that reason was because I was cheating and something above you and me was giving me a second chance to make things right. So I want to choose the good path now” Onew continued as he flipped the page of a magazine that he brought the other day.
He wasn’t really reading the magazine but it gave him a look like he was someone important that enriched his vocabulary with the scandal of some famous people in front of Taemin’s eyes, well, that was what he thought in that moment. But it didn’t last long before Taemin tore the magazine from his hands and threw it to the other side of their tiny living room.
“Pay atention young minster, because I am going to say this just once! I know what we did was wrong-”
“and is still wrong” The elder interrupted before receiving a punch in his left arm that had now become Taemin’s favorite boxing bag.
“But believe me that I wouldn’t be bothering you if we didn’t need the money”
“But I have my old job again and you are still working there and-” He shut his mouth as Taemin raised his fist in an attempt to punch him again.
“But we can’t trust you in that job or youself”
“If you don’t trust me in any job then why are you insisting me to be a model? I know I am going to fail. I am not good at anything I do and be a model is one of them. So at least let me fail like a man and not as a girl!” Onew Shout as he got up from the couch, showing his back to his brother since he didn’t want to argue with him anymore. He was so frustrated. He was used to hear that he wasn’t good at anything but fail as a girl too would be the most embarrassing thing in his entire life.
.
.
“I know you are not good at anything, I mean, I have lived with you since I know, but believe me!” Taemin got up to reach his brother and turn him so his attention was back to him again.
“This is your chance to finally do something you are good at. Key told me that he saw your photos and he said you did great, fantastic if I resume the long list he told me and I almost fell asleep while he was talking. So I know this is for you. Be a model is finally something you are good at” The older looked at Taemin in disbelieve. It wasn’t that he didn’t believe what his brother said. Well… He didn’t believe him, but he also was shocked.
.
.
“You are not trolling me, right? Because if that’s so then we will have a problem here mister!”
“I am not joking. So get your stuff because we are leaving, NOW” Taemin said as he started to get is stuffs and waited for his brother as he was trying to put on his shoes.
“Where are we going?” The still puzzled guy asked as he also joined his brother and started to find his other shoe. When he finally found it and he was ready to go Taemin tangled his arm with his and opened the door that lead out of their department.
“We are going to seal a contract”
.
.
.
.
.
.
And sure they did. After a quick make-up session, stealing borrowing some clothes from the wardrobe room, and almost 3 hours of chit chat and signing papers Onew was finally a model. A model... It will definitely take him some time to get use to that word every time he thinks about himself. But sure enough Key was there to help him with that task.
.
.
“I almost thought that you wouldn’t come. I was so worried about you and Taemin didn’t answer any of my calls or texting’s! But I am so glad you make it on time. Believe me; you will never regret this decision. I know because I have seen a lot of girls in this industry but you Eunsook are something else. Something that I had never seen before. Somethi-” Key continued as he gave him a little tour around his new work place. Taemin was also going with them, just a little too far from them. Too, TOO far away thanks to Key’s arm that rested securely in Onew’s shoulders that lead them in a pretty fast speed.
.
.
“Hey, I am still here!” The younger said out loud for Key to hear but it didn’t reach his ears as they turned to the right, still walking through the corridors.
Key was determinate to make Eunsook feel comfortable in that place; that, and he liked the way how his arm rested on her shoulders. A little of skin ship doesn’t kill anybody, right?
.
.
“This floor is manly about contracts, interviews, mostly about marketing; so let’s head to the 4th floor to see the real thing” Onew saw how Key eyes disappeared as his wide smile almost reached his ears.
He must have a wonderful day to be like that, he thought. But he couldn’t ask him anything since he seemed to like to have the lead of their conversation, a conversation where Key was the only one participating. So turning around in search of his little brother that had been missing since they found Key in the corridors he finally found him behind them.
.
.
Taemin was doing his best to run toward their direction since Key stopped in front of the elevators. And when he finally made it and was trying to recover his breath again it only took him a second before a ton of people got out of an elevator and at the same time from nowhere the same amount of people proceeded to get in, leaving him outside and only looking at his brother squished face from all the people mouthing him ‘HELP ME’ as the doors closed in front of him.
.
.
There was a long pause as his brain processed what was happening around him.
1) His brother was gone.
2) He was with Key.
3) If having Onew with him was dangerous, now leaving him alone with Key was a total disaster. Damn, Key was going to ruin their plan before it could even have started.
.
.
.
.
As everything was doom in Taemin’s prospective with Onew was a different story. They were in the 4th floor, were the magic was made. And sure it did because just as they stepped there a lot of gorgeous people surrender them, and most of them weren’t even models. They were walking through a big room that had different scenarios everywhere and then something caught Onew’s sigh.
“Oh my dear lord! That is Amber, right? The female model with the boyish style! Oh my God she looks gorgeous!” Said girl was posing in front of a scenario that consisted of a plain green fabric that maybe they would change it for something else as they edited the photos.
.
.
Onew was so excited as said girl smiled in front of the cameras as she tried different poses for the shooting. It wasn’t a secret that Onew liked to read magazines on is wasted time (most of the time) and so he kind of knew some people that were in them.
.
.
“Well… Most of her fans are guys, but I am happy to find a fan of her in you” Key said as he waved his hand towards Amber direction and she smiled to him and continued with the photo shoot.
A nervous smiled started to form in Onew’s mouth as Key concentrated on him again as both continued with their little tour. What happened was just a little warning for him. If he wanted to keep on with his little act in front of everyone in this agency he needed to let behind his thoughts. He needed to start thinking like a girl, but what girls think was something that he didn’t know. Clothes? Make-up? Guys? And then something wondered in his mind. Didn’t Key also though about that?
.
.
“Eunsook” And just in time the same guy was taking him away from his thoughts.
“You must be tire. I mean, signing a contract with a famous modeling agency isn’t something that occurs every day”
“Actually, I am hungry” The still wanna be girl answered as he could heard how his stomach was talking by himself, growling and making his already tinted cheeks more pink. Key squealed as he couldn’t resist the cuteness that radiated from Eunsook.
“Gosh! You are so cute! C’mon, let get something for you”
.
.
It took them 10 minutes and 4 more embarrassing growls from Onew’s stomach before they finally made it to the little cafeteria that was located inside the building. There was a little talk as both got there but nothing that Onew couldn’t control. Everything was under control and he was proud of himself and how he managed everything without his brother company until Key started to order their food.
“I would like a Club Sandwich with some French fries and for the lady…?” Key made a pause to let him answered, but what came from his mouth was something that neither Key nor the waiter were waiting for.
“For me I would like a double cheeseburger with fries and an order of onion rings and a chocolate milkshake please” He smiled cutely making both men respond with a dorky smile.
.
.
“It looks like she could eat a horse if we put her in front of one. Good luck that her first job doesn’t include her in a zoo or will be doomed” The most unwanted person (in Onew’s perspective) in the world said as he take a sit on their table.
Ignoring the no so obvious death glared Key was throwing to his direction and the shock expression Eunsook had. He ignored the kicks he was receiving under the table from Key and proceeded to call the waited again and ordered something to join them.
.
.
“Tell me what brings you here out of nowhere Jonghyun” The bitted tone in Key’s voice was something the he wished his friend would notice but it seemed like it passed unnoticed in front of him.
“First of all, I think ‘be hungry’ was the main thing that made me be here. Second, I saw you and decided I wanted to talk with you like we always do” He answered with a smile as the waiter came with the coffee that Jonghyun order a while ago.
“I can clearly see your statement, but I don’t know if you are blind or something to notice that I have company with me!” Jonghyun was getting in his nerves and the worse thing was that Jonghyun knew what he was doing, a sudden smirk in the brunettes lips confirming his statement.
“Of course I notice her. How couldn’t I when she almost ordered a whole meal”
“Hey!” It was now Onew’s turn, after been ignored this whole time by these two guys, to make himself notice.
“I mean no offence, but you should sincerely watch out you diet or else we will have to make a photo shoot called Free Willy” The photographer said as he looked at her from head to toes and smiling as he then proceeded to prepare his coffee again and ask a waiter that passed by for some milk for his coffee since it was extremely hot.
.
.
If the last incident with him wasn’t already bad, this was the cherry on top. No one, and when he said no one it was never in his life had someone insulted him this much. The feeling of throwing a punch directly to his face was strong but he had to hold back if he wanted keep his new job. Images of Taemin making him control little by little as he closed his eyes to try to breathe through his nose instead of his mouth. The voice of key was far gone from his ears as range consumed every part of his body but he was doing his best to calm down.
.
.
‘Remember that you are doing this for your brother and no one else Onew’ He tried to convince his himself but the task was impossible when he heard the photographer speak again.
“Don’t get mad at me for telling you the truth. Take this like a little advice since your first photo shoot will be leading by me. So feel honored for such a great opportunity, since this is almost like a once in a live chance” Onew opened his eyes again as he couldn’t believe what Jonghyun was telling him.
“Feel honored to work with someone like you? Are you kidding me?” Onew said as he stood up from the chair he was sitting, the whole scene gendering the attention of some people that was also there as well as some workers.
“Not as much as you are kidding me with that attitude. So please sit down and keep flirting with my friend as you try to convince him how innocent you are because in fact I really know how girls like you are; pretending to be nice and innocent in front of everybody to succeed in their lives, don’t caring if you have to step over someone else to accomplish your goals. But let me tell you that you choose the wrong victim because the one that pulls the stings here is me and it is such a shame that I had discovered you little plan so soon. So don’t come with that attitude in front of me do you understand?” Jonghyun said in a cold tone that made every fiver of Onew’s being froze.
How could he say something like that about him when he didn’t even know him? When he didn’t even had a chance to have a proper conversation with him? Of course he had exchanged some words with him but it was on his job in the mini market. But how could he judge him in his girl costume when he didn’t even know him? Or in this case her! He was so pissed and as many thought crossed his mind this was definitely the first time he had known such a negligible person in his whole life. He could feel how tears started to form in the corner of his eyes as anger took the better of him. Crying every time he got mad was something that he wasn’t proud of, but crying in front of Jonghyun was definitely a no.
.
.
“Here is the milk you order sir” The waiter came with a little pitcher and placed it on the table, but before the photographer could even reach it Onew grabbed it; Holding it above the brunette’s head and letting the cold liquid fall all over his head. The scene made Key’s jaw almost touch the table as he was also stunned with everything that was happening.
“I hope milk will make you grow up some brain-cells in that head of your since it didn’t make anything to help you with your height” Onew said as he set the pitcher again over the table and leaved the still both shocked boys behind.
Onew knew he was at the verge of crying and sure it was a good decision to leave those two because just as he walked out of the cafeteria his tears started to flow.
.
.
.
Meanwhile on the cafeteria, both guys were still shocked. Jonghyun soaked with the milk that continued dripping from his now ruined hair, had his mouth open and closed continuously as if trying to say something but nothing came out. In that instant Key finally got out of his trance and said.
“This was way too far Kim Jonghyun! She hadn’t done anything to you or even me, and she was here with me was because I was the one that wanted to be near her and not the contrary!” The blonde stood up not without looking for the last time at his friend, but before he gave a step Jonghyun also got up and started to walk away. Passing his friend in the process, Jonghyun ignored Key’s words. He was determinate to find this Eunsook girl and made her say she was sorry for everything she had done to him.
.
.
Walking through the halls and searching for his target, Key joined his side.
“Where do you think you are going? I am trying to ignore you in a cool way in case you didn’t know!”
“I am going to find her and make her regret everything she did to me!”
.
.
.
.
.
.
Onew continued walking through the hall, a little bit lost since Key was the one leading him through the whole building. The tears were still flowing and for some reason they didn’t want to stop. Luckily, just as he turned to the left and continued walking he found his breathless and lost brother in the end of the hall, making him run to his side as he finally found his missing sister. But just when Taemin was getting near his brother he noticed his state.
.
.
“Onew? What is going on?” But instead of getting an answer, his brother came up with a muffle cry as he still tried to suppress his crying.
Hugging his younger brother and hiding his face in the junction of his neck and shoulder, Onew continued crying.
“What happened? Why are you crying?” Taemin was concerned that something really bad had occurred to his brother because it was rear to see his brother crying like that since he was usually one of those persons that didn’t liked other to see him like that.
“I want… to go home, please…” He said in an inaudible tone but it was enough for Taemin to hear. Nodding, Taemin started to walk by his side as he guide Onew toward the elevators, holding his hand tightly since he knew it was something that always gave support to his brother when he was felling down back in the foster home. The other appreciated the gesture and laid his head on his younger brother’s shoulder.
.
.
It didn’t matter how much he could get angry with the little devil of brother he has, both would always be there for each other when they needed a shoulder to cry.
.
As both boys waiter for the elevator to stop on their floor, far away from them Jonghyun found her. So without thinking it twice he accelerated his steps to reach her before she could go somewhere else.
“Stop right there!” Jonghyun shout from afar as Key was a little breathless but continued by his side.
Taemin looked at them with a confused expression but Onew’s eyes opened wide as he heard his voice. So when the elevator doors opened he got inside, pulling at his brother arm to make him get inside and pressing a button so the doors could close again. But like usual, things never worked out like he wanted them because just as the door closed Jonghyun pressed the button from the outside, making them open again. The show continued as the doors keep closing and opening. Key and Taemin looking to each other with a bored expression since it were getting kind of annoying.
.
.
“Hey Onew, can you tell me what is going on between you and Jonghyun?” Taemin whispered in his brother’s ear so it wouldn’t reach the other.
“Like you see I am trying to get away from this asshole!” Onew said aloud.
“Who are you telling asshole?!”
“Isn’t it obvious? I am talking about you moron! Now leave me alone! I don’t want to be around you any longer!”
“Well it is a pity because your first modeling job with be under my supervision so get used to it!”
“Then, I will see you until that day so for now leave me ALONE!!!” Onew said as he finished with a cry and more tears continued falling.
.
.
Jonghyun saw her shock as the doors finally closed, leaving him alone with Key.
“Was she crying?” He asked as he turned toward Key to verify that he hadn’t see wrong.
“Of course she was crying you dumbass! You don’t know how much his brother and I tried to convince her to take this job!”
“Convince her?” Jonghyun repeat it, making Key want to slap him in the face for the dumb face he was doing.
“Yeah, she didn’t wanted to know anything about be a model and all this shit but after seeing her photos I told her brother to convince her to come today so she could sign her contract. Plus, it was me who was giving her a little tour around the place and invited her to eat. So of course she was crying after everything you told her. I told you she was different since the first day I presented her to you but and your stubbornness” The blond said as he shook his head, not approving Jonghyun’s behavior.
“Now, I don’t know what you will have to do but you have to apologies to her!”
“Me?!”
“No, I was talking about the queen of England. Of Course I am talking about you!!! And you better do it before her photo shoot or else she would not be present that day” With that Key finally leaved him, not without throwing him a final death gaze that made him leave in a cool way just like he wanted.
.
.
Now alone, Jonghyun’s thoughts started to settle down. What he did was definitely wrong but he noticed a little too late. But he had seen many people doing what he told her many times and so he thought this case was the same but maybe he was wrong. Sighing deeply as he felt guilt consume his chest he placed a hand above it, feeling the cold metal of his necklace under his shirt.
“I hope Key isn't wrong this time…”
