Chapter 14 - Chapter 13

Zohara woke up around 6AM, she took a bath and they went to the set.

While the camera and some props were being prepared. Zohara went to a make-up room and did her make-up. 

The make up artist didn't change her face that much, just make her eyebrow softer and her face paler. Her hair was just freely flowing, while she changed her clothes to a yellow gingham piece with a soft, vintage charm. 

Calix always wore colorful dresses in contrast to her pale skin because she felt guilty reminding her grandparents that she was sick. 

After preparing everything, Zohara was instructed and guided by Director Lux. He explained certain rules making the staff think the sun rises to the west. 

He is being too kind! 

The first shot was when she was playing Moonlight Sonata. It's the first time Eliàn met Calix. All Calix scenes were in Eliàn point of view until the end, they never show Calix inner monologue, that's why high caliber acting is necessary to deliver what Calix wanted to say to the 3rd POV, because Eliàn is an unreliable narrator.

 

"Good luck" Ceon said, he's wearing a simple white shirt and jersey blue shorts. 

The first take would be the Eliàn scene who accidentally kicked his soccer ball to the neighborhood backyard. Then when Eliàn heard about someone playing piano and him watching her. 

Eliàn who accidentally kicked his ball grimaced seeing it roll to the neighborhood. He sneakily entered the backyard and was about to leave while carrying his ball when he heard something. 

As if a deer caught in a headlight, he follows the sound then there she is. A pale thin girl as if blown by the wind playing a beautiful melody. Eliàn felt his heart constrict to pieces, what's the tone of giving up? of unspoken sorrow? of the finality of everything? Eliàn doesn't know but it'll be the sound, it'll sound like this. 

"CUT" 

"Just one take" 

"I actually felt goosebumps, Zohara really played well." 

"We'll also take just the piano scene!" Director Lux shouted 

Ceon left his station and went outside the scene. He watched Zohara play again as he touched his heart. 

Still hurts

The next scene was Calix teaching Eliàn how to play piano. Just a simple twinkle star. 

They also took some easy shots when the sun was about to set. It was a solo scene of Zohara playing First Breeze, Ceon was asked to leave. 

"Just watch it on the last day, for the shoot." Director Lux told Ceon, he didn't have a choice but to leave. 

Calix was wearing a white dress. Her frame looks so small and fragile. She has a tired smile and lonely eyes. She began setting a camera in front of the piano. 

"Hmmmm, how are you?" she asked with a hint of shyness "I felt great these days. Grandma also taught me how to bake cake so I can bake a cake for you next summer. I…I'm really happy you know? Ah… happy birthday, this is my gift for you." 

She said quite awkwardly in front of the camera while looking sideways. 

Calix walked towards the piano and sat. Calix closes her eyes, inhales, then the first note. 

It was a desperate call, a desperate hope, a confession that would never be answered. 

Calix clenches her trembling fingers after playing and looks at the camera with a soft smile. 

"CUT" 

The set was filled with silence, they were too immersed that they felt suffocated and hurt. They couldn't help but to cry. 

Ceon, look at the staff who came back, they all have reddened eyes and dejected expressions. 

Hah? 

The following days, they shoot different scenes. Mostly, Calix and Eliàn opened up, playing, biking while Calix was sitting behind, and exploring the neighborhood. 

Because of the seldom mistake, they were able to shoot the last scene for the Eliàn and Calix scene by Friday the next week since they started. 

Zohara was watching Ceon's scene. It was a week after Eliàn learned about Calix's death. It was a day after Eliàn's birthday, just 3 days before his summer break. 

He's been isolating himself then Calix grandparent gave him a camera with a video in it. 

Eliàn hesitantly opened it. His eyes redden seeing his face in the photos. Then the flowers, scenerary, his back, his laughter.

Then he saw her, wearing a white dress. His hands immediately trembled, he wanted to close it, he didn't know if he could watch it and stay sane. 

"Hmmmm, how are you?" Calix in the video asked with a hint of shyness "I felt great these days. Grandma also taught me how to bake cake so I can bake a cake for you next summer. I…I'm really happy you know? Ah… happy birthday, this is my gift for you." 

When Eliàn heard the first note, a sobbed escape. His finger bled while clenching his fist. When he saw Calix's last smile, Eliàn looked at the ceiling, his hand holding the camera while the other was bleeding. He didn't say anything but his broken eyes tell's everything. He clenches his heart and keeps pounding it until a loud agony filled shout escapes from his mouth. That's the man who lost everything. 

"CUT!" 

"SCRIPTWRITER!" 

Director Lux shouted, everyone knew they needed to change some things. In the original ending, Eliàn learned to love Kaia and open his heart but Eliàn wouldn't. Ceon also knows this, if he was Eliàn he would try to end his life even after meeting Kaia. In truth, after meeting Kaia, Eliàn further realized how he couldn't live without Calix.

They really didn't need to reshoot anything but they needed to delete some scenes and add another scene for Eliàn and Calix. 

Calix needed another scene where she was writing a letter and another shot for Eliàn who revisited the places they went and found the letter when he was about to kill himself. 

That Friday night, the team pulled a whole nighter to finalize everything. Zohara also needed to stay until Saturday. 

"You did great." Zohara said, they are on a balcony. Ceon, beside him, needed to drink.

 

"That was the first time I acted that well. I was overwhelmed by the emotion." Ceon still felt suffocated by the last scene. 

"Me too, when I shot the scene, it was just full of desperation and sorrow. It was a confession but also a plea." Zohara shared

"When do you think they'll release this?" 

"Post-production for melodrama movies takes at least 3 months. It's already September, do you think they'll release something like this in December?" Ceon asked with a hint of laughter "It's also hard to secure a cinema slot when December comes, it's a fight for Christmas movie production." 

"Probably around February, the month of love." Zohara said while chuckling. 

"We'll be bashed" 

"Get use to it" 

They laugh, if they really play it in February. It will really cause chaos.

After shooting her last scene in the morning, Zohara bid her goodbye to the staff and everyone. She also exchanged numbers with Ceon. 

It was around 2PM when she arrived at her home. She's tired as hell, she couldn't help but to sleep after taking a bath not remembering she didn't announce a notice.

Legendary Nicht: SHE ONLY HAVE 4 CONTACTS! OF COURSE, I'M ONE OF IT!

:lol

Legendary Nicht: Privacy but it just worked

:So basically you're the only outsider? 

Legendary Nicht: zzzzz

: BE FUCKING SCARED!

Ohara: It's now 6. 

:FUCK, SHE'S ALIVE 

:HOWS THE ASCENSION?!

:SHE'S LIVESTREAMING

Zohara woke up because of a non-stop call from Nicht. She read the trending topic, which is about her. She replies to Nicht lunacy as she yawns and opens a livestream. 

She's currently in her bed, wearing a satin pink night wear. Messy hair, she's lying sideways covered by a blanket and a dimmed light of the lamp helped the viewers see her features. 

: So this is how it feels to lie beside Zohara? 

:She looks so gorgeous, is this even the face of someone who just woke up? 

: Skin care routine! 

"Hey guys" She mumble softly 

: BEDROOM VOICE

: ZOHARA STOP, THE HARA'S ARE TOO WEAK FOR THIS

: IF WE'LL BE GREETED BY THIS EVERY A WEEK OFF, I'LL GLADLY ACCEPT IT

:What were you busy with?

"Secret" Zohara answer and giggle 

:AM I HALLUCINATING?!

:DID THE ALMIGHTY ZOHARA JUST GIGGLE?!

:AHHHHHHH

:WHAT A FEAST

:IS THIS SLEEPY ZOHARA

 

:WE UNLOCK ANOTHER CHARACTER 

:FEISTY, PROUD, DISGUSTED, HAPPY, FOCUS, SLEEPY… AN EXPRESSION PACKS LOL

"bye-bye" 

Zohara uttered and ended the live, she then slept again. 

Zohara woke up at 10AM on Sunday Morning. Then she took a bath and ate a bread toast breakfast. 

She only has 2 weeks before the start of the new semester. 

After resting for a whole day yesterday, she felt energized and looked at the email sent by Manager Eli. She didn't see any offers that she liked.

She felt quite bored and ended up reading a fiction novel. When she was reading the scripts, she felt she was watching a movie, as if what she was reading was not a word but a world. A world created through magic.

In reality, even though Zohara likes to read, she doesn't read fiction. She mostly educational books for the subject course, math book, biology book and such. 

That's also maybe the reason why her expression in painting is quite average. Playing instruments like piano and violin is different to painting, there is already a score sheet in piano and violin. She just needed to extract what was the composer want to deliver and embodied it. That's also the same when she's doing a cover or when she's singing. In reality she doesn't really sing that much, just when she felt she had too much emotion.

She now realized why, she needed to embody emotion just to deliver something, be it violin, piano, singing and dancing. Usually, these things already have a template, except of course if she is a composer or a lyricist. 

That's what is hard for Zohara, to express, or create something out of nothing. Like the painting, she needed to create it not to copy it.Her imagination is quite limited and reading a script opens a new door to her.

Knowing, analyzing, understanding, embodying emotions from fictions can also be utilized. She can learn different situations, experiences and emotions through emotion, these things can fuel her imagination when trying to embody something or imagine something. This will help her in everything she does outside her academics. 

On the internet she looked for good recommendations and purchased its digital version. She first read a non fiction high rated autobiography, it's a diary of a man about death. Its title was "Elegy for a Living Man". 

Zohara consumed it like a hungry ghost. She read it, as if watching the author writing beside her. His emotions, his suffering, confusion, fear and yearning was written. 

For the following weeks, Zohara spent her time reading fiction digital books. In the end she were able to read 2 books, excluding the 2 book she dropped. Not all books have that substance, even when it was high rated the delivery is dry and she couldn't immersed herself in it. The book she finished is the 'Elegy for a Living Man', and the, 'The Silk Rebellion'. 

It has 3 volumes and Zohara read it for a week. She didn't even do a livestream when Saturday came. It was just too good, the intrigue, the emotional conflict, the plot and worldbuilding. 

The Silk Rebellion has multiple main characters but is highly focused on Lian Xue who entered the palace gate as a dancer. She was a commoner and she saw her family die because of abuse of power. She bowed to avenged her family and met her mentor Mei Lin, she was a courtesan and acted as spy for rebellion that was already simmering for quite a while. Mei Lin teaches Lian Xue the art of seduction and the things she needs to learn before entering the palace. The plan was to infiltrate the palace as a dancer and seduce the emperor. Lian Xue, who is beautiful and talented in dancing, became Emperor concubine. She dug through the Emperor's heart and learned to love him and hate him at the same time. She continues to exchange messages to the spy using silk bolts. There is a different silk pattern introduced that was used as a code. 

Lian Xue upon experiencing the Emperor's love, was moved, and she felt disgusted with herself. Even though Lian Xue felt something for the Emperor, showing her inner struggle, her wishes to avenge her family precedes all. In the end, the rebellion was successful and Emperor Xuanlie died in Lian Xue hand. 

It was written addictingly with a lot of twist in the middle. Zohara planned to buy a physical copy of it. It's now Saturday and just 2 days before they start the semester.

 

:FINALLY?! 

:YOU FINALLY REMEMBER US? 

:NO LIVESTREAM FOR 3 WEEKS STRAIGHT? EXCEPT FOR A MINUTES LIVESTREAM?

:FAIRY SISTER WHERE DID YOU ASCEND 

"Hello guys" Zohara said while laughing

:Okay, I forgive you

:...

:Forgiven 

:Apology accepted 

:Are you busy with the anniversary performance? 

"I forgot to tell you guys, I'll not be performing." She uttered

She was in her room, sitting in her bed. It's only 10AM, Zohara just had her breakfast and took a bath earlier. 

"Secret" She uttered to the inquiry

"I began reading fiction books"

:HUH?! You dont?!

:This is hella shocking Zohara, as a homebody I thought you always read novels and such…

"I read academic books." She retorted 

:...

:well enough 

:hmmm

:we lost 

:so what are you reading? 

:THATS THE REASON YOU GHOST US FOR ANOTHER WEEK?! 

Zohara laugh 

"I accidentally start a good book, The Silk Rebellion" 

:WOAH

:MY EMPEROR XUANLIE 

:LIN XUE MOMMY 

:Way to start, its one of the most popular book for a while 

:Fair enough

"I couldn't stop myself from reading it." 

:Yes!

:Universal experience! 

:DO YOU KNOW THAT IT'LL BE ADAPTED TO A DRAMA SERIES? 

"Really?" Zohara asked with a hint of interest

:Yeah, Koi & Lanterns Films already bought the IP and would be co-produced by Velin Studios 

:The fans were happy because Velin Studios are well known for their quality costume drama. Misty Crown was produced by that studio… 

:It'll be a S tier drama! CANT WAIT TO SEE IT 

"Do they already have an artist?" Zohara asked 

:EH?! YOU'RE INTERESTED?!

:OMG?! AHHHH CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU ACT

:Can you even act? 

"I can try" Zohara answer with a hint of laughter 

:I heard Director Ayen Ruo already have the male lead

:YES! IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS RIUJIE! 

"The emperor?" 

:YES, that's why it's a S-tier drama, the production would be really high 

:It also includes Riujie, an A-lister! 

"Hmmm, I can see it."

:AETHER released a new album! React to the MV! 

:PRETTY PLEASE 

"Let me search for it." 

Its song name is 'Nocturne for Two' , a vampire theme. The vampire falls in love with a mortal saintess. It's a tragedy of immortality, in looking for his first love all the century believing that reincarnation would bring her back from her death. 

It's an ethereal pop ballad with cinematic strings and ambient synths. The melody starts fragile, almost hesitant, then blooms into a sweeping chorus that feels like flying through night skies. The bridge dips into minor keys, hinting at loss, before resolving in bittersweet harmony. 

The lyrics are also good and quite easy to follow. The MV is also a visual feast.

:Zohara is amazed! 

:Me too

:Who wouldn't? 

:I think we can convert her into A5! 

:A5 Ego boost, when the picky Zohara likes it! 

"It's good…more than good. And who is this?" 

Zohara said and paused the video to a man with a medium-length and layered mixture of black and pink hair, styled with volume and a tousled texture. He has obsidian doll eyes that look dreamy, small face, high nose, and bloody red lips. He looks feminine and a mixture of soft and dreamy looks. 

:AHHHHHHH ZOHARA IS DEFINITELY HOOK! 

:THAT'S FEN! 

:THE YOUNGEST MEMBER 

:OPPS ZOHARA CAN YOU FIGHT US?!

:Can Fen fight us all? 

:I didn't know who to be jealous of. 

:@Soren you okay dude? 

Soren: Zohara can appreciate beauty all she wants, I can even accept a polygamy as long as I'm the main husband…

:fuck

:...

:me too…

:Let me in! to the Zohara's Harem 

Ohara's Concubine: I'm here first. Learn to respect seniority. 

:fuck…

Ohara's 2nd Concubine:I'm late! 

Ohara's nth Concubine: Are we really going to count? 

Ohara's Concubine: I create a GC, only harem member are welcome (link)

"Guys…shut up. Especially you Soren." Zohara utters and rolls her eyes. 

"Fen looks good, but why is it Fen? Can he choose a good stage name?" 

:....

:ehem

Nef: ouch 

:this a topic in the fandom…

:right, all i can remember is ballpen when i heard fen 

:its from his name Lifen 

"Then he should go with Life" Zohara joked and laughed "I'll cook my lunch first, then I'll cover Nocturne for Two in piano and violin."

:YES

:WE WON 

:AHHHHHHH

:FINALLY, SHE WAS HOOK

"Why does he look so happy?" Orien asked Marek who was sitting in front of him, while Fen was sitting beside Marek.

They were in the van and about to shoot an interview for a magazine. 

"He's complimented by Zohara" Marek shared while rechecking his face in the MV.

"Maybe Zohara's type is soft looking. Her friend Soren also looks like a puppy type." He uttered to Fen 

"Dont know" Fen answer while giggling

Of course he is happy! 

He's been following Zohara for months on the internet, he's a dedicated Hara! 

It began wanting to fight someone on the internet until he idolized Zohara's character then now…

He's a certified Hara, he even belongs to a numerous GC, follows fan accounts, and reads fan fiction of Zohara. 

Then SHE COMPLIMENTS HIM! HIS FACE! 

He couldn't help but to feel giddy! 

She also complimented their new song and covered it! 

"Fuck, fix your expression later Fen" Marek exclaimed 

"I know," Fen said happily while scrolling through the L-Line. 

Orien wants to face palm…

Their manager also wanted to cover his ears and to forget what he had heard.

Fuck, if scandal broke out, he'll probably be shoot by the company….

Zohara is now in her second sem as first year. She has 6 subjects, General Microbiology, Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy, Analytical Chemistry, Language, and Rhythmic Activities. 

She doesn't have any monday and tuesday schedule, while having a morning class on Wednesday to friday and an afternoon class on Saturday. 

She also finally used her new car that was given by Uncle Qin almost 4 months ago, the red SX-J8 series. It was delivered 4 months ago in the Hill Residence and she did not go back to her Residence. 

She also talks to Manager Eli about the Silk Rebellion drama adaptation and probably hears the information later today. 

Basically, it was only Zohara and her manager in a team. She did not belong to any Entertainment Company and is an independent artist. It means no agency was able to profit after her. Usually artists join agencies for connection, organization and resources but Zohara already has 17 million followers in her L-Line, and some resource is the one that is reaching after her. Manager Eli also has a lot of experience in being a manager and has adequate information to ask around. 

Zohara spends her Monday and Tuesday advance reading. Maple, Ada, Anastasia and her also talk about the new bath schedule and such. 

Wednesday Morning, Zohara went to the room for her first class, General Microbiology. 

"ZOHARA! I MISS YOU!" Soren exclaimed, his blonde hair already grew a little longer showing the black roots. It doesn't look ugly but became more of a style. Zohara tries to escape Soren's hug plan. 

"Good to see you again!" Mira exclaimed happily 

"I miss you Zohara! You also ghosted us for 3 weeks on livestream!" Coco exclaimed 

"That too! I was worried! and please let me into your contacts!" Soren 

"Give me your phone." Zohara said as she sat 

"Wha-?! WHAT?!" Soren was flabbergasted, he was only joking. He immediately gets his phone and gives it to Zohara. He felt amazing. 

"Me too!" Coco exclaimed followed by Mira, while offering their phone. She types her number and laughs a little. 

Soren immediately wanted to boast around. He borrowed Coco's phone and took a selfie showing Zohara's name as contact, without showing the number and posted it. 

@Soren 

Now, were 9 ~ 📱✨

:Fuck

:HOW ENVIABLE 

Sienna: Congrats! 

Soren: Thanks mom! 

:They are now legal…

Legendary Nicht : What is this? @Zohara? It only took him 5 months?! AHHHHHH YOU HAVE NOW YOUR FAVORITES! 

: lol 

:fuck… 

Soren giggled seeing the comments and congratulations. He also kept chatting with Nicht and joking with each other. 

Later that night, Zohara saw a message from Soren asking for forgiveness. 

Zohara: ? 

Soren: AHHHHHH (link) these people are really crazy, its now became trending

Soren: This is because of my post…

Zohara: I read it, just do and say what you want to say. Go with it… and I'll also post something. 

Zohara read the link, it's an article about her. 

IS ZOHARA REALLY WEALTHY? OR SELL HER BODY? 

Maybe, she doesn't need a sugar daddy because she milked the second generation? 

I've been seeing the conversation of @Legendary Nicht, @Soren and @Zohara in L-Line and L-Rest and I heard from Nicht friends that Nicht himself told them. 

"It took a year of following Zohara to befriend her" 

"It took 3 years to get her number" 

"I never saw her father, just the car." 

I wonder why? 

Maybe because Nicht is not wealthy enough to enter Zohara's rooster that easily. 

Remember Soren? 

I searched about him, his the youngest son of the Erlx Family. 

Who is Erlx? They owned University A, Hospital A and R&D Laboratories. 

They are Billionaires. 

And that Soren was following Zohara around. 

Zohara doesn't need a sugar daddy because Soren can provide her with everything. 

The question is, who is Zohara's cash cow before meeting Soren because she only met him in the opening ceremony (photo) that's the Chairman with Soren. 

Maybe, the guy in the car who Nicht saw was not Zohara's father, but her previous ATM which was thrown away when Soren came. 

I let you think about it, 

Now her next target is Fen and she doesn't even like Zero because he doesnt have that much money…

:the revelation! I already expected something like this! There was just something fake about her! 

:every word of hers is calculated! 

:FUCK YOU ZOHARA LEAVE MY FEN ALONE! 

:DONT POLLUTE MY FEN TO THIS 

:Wow, Zero is not wealthy? FUCK! 

:Do you really believe this article? 

:Explain to @Zohara, I also saw a new car (photo) this is the one you attend a car showcasing too. Someone also saw you with Soren inside that time (photo) 

:fuck, I heard it was auction and cost 20 million+

A lot of comments were attacking Zohara, all her previous haters and just random people also joined the hate train. Though Hara was continuously fighting, some shallow fans announced leaving Hara. 

The first person to speak up was not Zohara but Soren upon receiving the go sign. 

@Soren

The hell with this fuck up article, are you insane? This is full of fucking bullshit! 

First, ZOHARA DID NOT NEED TO SELL HER BODY IF SHE NEEDS SOMETHING FROM ME! 

SHE JUST NEEDS TO SMILE! 

TO ASK! 

BUT SHE NEVER DID! 

THIS MAKES ME UNHAPPY BECAUSE I COULDN'T BOAST MY FAMILY'S MONEY AROUND HER! 

DO YOU KNOW THE PAIN OF JUST HAVING MONEY AND NOT HAVING ANY QUALIFICATION OF PURSUING ZOHARA?! 

HAVE YOU SEEN ZOHARA'S CREDENTIALS? 

SHE FUCKING WON MANY GOLDS IN OLYMPIAD SINCE SHE IS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL (photos)

SHE ACE THE NATIONAL EXAMINATION (photo) 

SHE CAN PLAY PIANO AND VIOLIN

 

SHE CAN PAINT 

SHE'S KIND AND DONATE OVER 20 MILLION THRU HER LIVESTREAM 

AND YOU'RE DISRESPECTING HER LIKE THIS? 

THE AUDACITY OF THESE ASSHOLES

I learned about Zohara when I was in High school because of her NOTES! and from that NOTES! I passed the NATIONAL EXAMINATION! 

IM ETERNALLY GREATFUL TO HER AND AS YOU KNOW I FUCKING LOVE HER! 

BUT I KNOW IAM JUST AN ERLX 

THE YOUNGEST SON OF AN ERLX

And then? 

I'm just that. 

I don't have high grades or even a dream, I only passed the national examination because of Zohara. When I met Zohara, I began dreaming, of being something, of dedicating my time to actual causes. 

I STARTED THE HARA'S CLUB BECAUSE OF ZOHARA 

BUT I END UP LOVING THE CLUB ITSELF 

IN KNOWING IM DOING SOMETHING

OF KNOWING IM ACTUALLY SOMETHING

Zohara told me once that I'll someday find my path. That Zohara is the one YOURE FUCKING ATTACKING.

 

LIKE HOW DARE YOU?! 

DO YOU KNOW HOW INFERIOR I FELT IN FRONT OF ZOHARA? 

OF KNOWING I WAS NOT ENOUGH TO BE LOVE BY HER? 

AND I DIDN'T DESERVE HER?

AND YOU ASSUMED THAT YOU CAN BUY ZOHARA WITH JUST A MONEY!

MONEY! 

IF MONEY CAN BUY ZOHARA I'LL BE WILLING TO PAY ALL THE MONEY ON EARTH TO HER! 

THAT'S HOW VALUABLE SHE IS!

YES, I CAN PROVIDE HER WITH EVERYTHING BUT SHE DOESN'T WANT TO! (can you please persuade her so we can just get married or somethin')

AND I DIDNT BOUGHT THAT CAR, I OFFERED ONE BUT SHE DIDNT WANT TO! 

AND FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO SAID IM BEING MANIPULATED OR USED

@Legendary Nicht 

I now realized why Hara called me gullible. 

When someone asks me about Hara, I usually respond honestly, what's there to hide? I didn't know I would be used to something like this. 

I met Hara when I was 11 years old, it was the first time I saw someone that beautiful and lovely. She looks so close off, cold and broken. 

When I talked to Hara, she just looked at me and didn't say anything. Yes, it takes a year to be her friend. And so? she can do whatever she wants in her life, people should be questioning me more because I follow her around…

For the first 3 years of knowing her, she spent her time in academics. School, house, and practices. She never played nor watched any entertainment. 

When we became High School, she became more open to me but she still treats our classmates the same. We sometimes watched horror movies (I really hate it because I'm easily afraid) but that's the only way I can spend time with her and actually see her as a kid. 

Hara all her time was spent in academics, talents, and competition. The only time I saw her genuinely happy is when she's talking with her father on her phone or when they meet. I don't know Hara's family circumstances and I wouldn't ask. But associating her father with something else is beyond disgusting as a human being. I hope all of you burn to hell. 

Yes, I never saw her father and I said I saw the car with the SECRETARY. We even talk and I talk to her father through the phone. 

He thanked me for befriending Hara. 

I was Hara's first friend and I was glad when she became a college student. I'm not the only one who tried to approach her. I was really worried that she would isolate herself again. 

Have you seen Hara in person? She's hella intimidating, so I'm glad Soren and the others were able to open her heart. 

Changing the environment brought changes to Hara. When Soren and I are joking, we actually just find it funny. That's our way of boasting, unassociated people should not insert themselves in the middle. And it took 3 years to get her number but so what? and we actually don't use it because we are neighbors.

And for my "friends" who contribute to this, fuck you.

: I think Zohara was pressured to achieve more in a young age that's why she's so close off but when she became topnotcher, she loosened up.

:I saw Zohara once, 100% sure intimidating as hell

:I give a 10/10 for Nicht's courage to follow Zohara for a year 

:I'll probably cry 

:My knee tremble around her 

:I stutter when I first met her

@CcM

Hello everyone, I'm Coco, one of Zohara's friends if you know me.

I know some of you have already seen me and I want to ask…

Would you accuse me of selling myself to Soren?

Soren and I are friends, why didn't you accuse me? 

You wouldn't

But why did you accuse Zohara? 

Because she's beautiful?

Because she has luxury items?

Let's stop being this stupid. 

Can't people change? 

Can't a man and woman just be friends?

 

Or do people usually assume that wealthy beautiful women need to sell their body to achieve it?

@Ohara

Aren't you guys tired of associating my name in such things? 

Explain? 

You mean, you should think critically for once?

Selling my body for just money? 

Don't make me laugh. 

Stop deluding yourself, you can drag my name around without being unscathed.

 

Ah.

You thought the author of that article months ago didn't go behind bars? 

I usually just let some matters pass by, like idiotic comments and hate, as long as I don't know about it. 

That trashy article author would have more companions. 

Welcome to behind bars club, pea brains.

:Be scared bitches! 

:I thought it did not get processed because it was not announced… 

:why does she need to announce it? for another clout? she doesn't need it. 

:do you think deleting your comments and posts can make your disgusting words disappear? Hara's has a receipt. We'll send it to Zohara.

:I really hate the mentality of the people who always jump in the hate train without thinking about the consequences. Have you forgotten about the deaths of many celebrities because of fake news and continuous cyber bullying? Especially for the news writer and blog writer that don't confirm their facts before talking. 

:THE TITLE TOO?! AS IF THEY ARE SURE! 

:Also for the A5 who dragged Zohara's name around, be prepared. I'm beyond angry. Why the hell are you jumping like a clown without confirming anything. Have you watched the livestream? Zohara just compliments Fen and covers your damn idol's new song. Seducing? Targeting? As if Zohara's needs to. 

:They even keep saying Fen wouldn't accept Zohara even if she gave herself for free? The audacity of these A5. Have you seen Zohara?

Prettyu:Some also attack her that she's average? girl? ZOHARA IS AVERAGE? HAVE YOU LOOK AT THE MIRROR? IF ZOHARA IS AVERAGE THEN I'M A FEET! 

:girl, you also look like a goddess 

Prettyu: well, must I say, pretty girls like Zohara. Only jealousy would cause hate…

:A5 leave here

:Also Zero's fans, dont be sound so desperate. Even though you dragged Zohara, Zero still likes Zohara more than you….

"I'm alright father, I didn't read the comments." Zohara answer 

"Let's publicize those article authors when they get arrested." Her father said with an angry tone

"Yes, hmmmm, I'm sorry father…for always making you worry. I know it hurts you reading those things about me." Zohara said with a guilty tone

"Dont be, it's all those people fault. I'm just glad that you're enjoying what you're doing. As long as you're alright and happy." 

"Hmmm, if some people want to settle with money, let them and donate that money to a campaign." 

"I'll let Secretary Luke handle it. Also, I already called your dean about your week leave this November 10."

"Hmm! I'm excited!"

"rest early" 

Thursday Morning, people across the University want to ask Zohara out of concern but they still find her intimidating. 

After their morning class, Coco, Mira, Soren, Nicht and Zohara were eating in the cafeteria. 

The four kept ranting about the situation yesterday, they were really angry about the netizen. Thankfully, it already settled and shifted, while the articles were all deleted and the accounts of some people were banned. 

"I didn't know father would talk with you." Zohara said 

"I was told not to tell you" Nicht grimaced, feeling quite scared remembering Hara's father voice. It sounds so fucking cold, he thought he'll be kill in a second. 

Zohara laugh

"You probably look like you're crying…" 

"Don't even mention it, I'm scared to death." Nicht grimaced 

"Do you know who talks to the press about Zohara?" Soren asked Nicht

"Truthfully, I almost boast around about Zohara so I can't track at all" He laugh

"We'll know in time" Zohara answer 

"You really won't perform next week?" Coco asked Zohara 

"I wont" 

"WHAT?! I thought you were joking! I was really excited!" Soren is devastated 

"Dont dwell on it" 

"I really want to see your performance." 

"She probably rejects it, no one can get what is supposed to be for her." Nicht commented

"Would you really sue those people on the internet?" Mira asked still stuck in the issue

 

"She should! They deserved it!" Soren exclaimed and started to rant. 

"What happened to your block booth?" 

"We're going to have a meeting tomorrow" Coco answered, she felt quite drained thinking. She felt her stomach churning and wanted to vomit. 

"I want to check some things in the club, Mira please help." Coco said, Soren furrowed his eyebrow confused. 

"Something happened again?" Soren asked raising his eyebrow 

"Again?" Zohara asked 

"It happened last sem, some products kept getting damaged. You might not know but only the hallways have in the club circle." Soren answer 

"I thought every room had CCTV." Zohara raised her eyebrow 

"The lecture halls have it, and the club circle also has it before but seniors rally that they couldn't breathe and such." Nicht answer 

"We'll go first." Coco answered back 

"Alright, I'll follow next." Soren waves his hand, after a while the two disappear. 

Zohara raises her eyebrow, and fixes her hair in the side of her ear and looks at Soren. 

"Do you think I'm kind personally?" She asked 

"Hah?" he was flabbergasted "Of course! You tutor us, send us notes, you also sometimes treat us, give us a tickets, and give a thank you scarf in all members of the Club!" he list down

"What? She did that?" Nicht was more shocked,

"Hmmm, I didn't notice. I let my guard down. Let's go." Zohara said and stood up. She had a light smile but the two felt scared. 

"Where?" 

"Club"
