...Chapter 1: The Surprise on Your Birthday...

🎵Uh, you wanna feel the vibe 

That I’m feeling and loving it and imaging🎵

 A remake of Dreams Come True by Korean girl group Aespa filled a studio apartment. I who was awake from sleep rubbed my eyes and looked at the digital clock on the nightstand, at 05.00 KST. Shortly after, my phone went off, there was a small note on the calendar today. A very special day, my birthday. I was still lying on the bed looking at the incoming messages piled up on Line and Kakaotalk, I read the incoming messages and left my phone lying on the bed. The air today is cold, but now autumn and the room warmers are functioning well for some reason this cold air makes me reluctant to get out of my bed.

With a step I went to the bathroom, washed my face. While brushing my teeth, I saw the reflection of my face in the mirror. I can't deny my high nose bone and perfect eyeballs are the result of plastic surgery. Everything fits perfectly in my tyrannical face.

 My name is Bit Na, my name is Ok. Bit Na means the sun. Thirty-two years ago, I was born as the sun in the Ok family. I work as a marketing team manager at an advertising company, have an accountant's girlfriend and this studio apartment is mine, I bought it on a five-year salary installment. 

(Office)

“Bit Na yaa” a flattering voice shocked me as I stepped into my study.

“Saengil chukkae!” a voice called Jung Bo Ra. 

Jung Bo Ra, my high school friend. Her beautiful face is very step in Korea. I don't know where his ancestors came from, which he definitely didn't need to remodel his face like I did, just do a dental smoothing procedure. I joined the company two years early. Since we are the same age, Bo Ra doesn't need to speak formally to me. 

“Is there a meal and beer tonight?” min Seola asked, raising her eyebrows. Min Seola is very easy to spot because of its 179 cm height and striking purple hair. His face is more Japanese than Korean and rumors have circulated that he is of North Korean descent.

“Haiss” my lips saw the behavior of two of my best friends.

“Of course there is, the limit is until 20:00 KST because I have a dinner appointment with Choi Jae Yoon”.

“Wahh, will he propose to you?” ask Bo Ra

“That's why he didn't even send me congratulations” I said sadly.

“Hei, it can be guessed the meaning” said Seola.

I shrugged my shoulders at the uninitiated sign. 

Choi Jae Yoon the man I had been dating for four years, we met thanks to a blind date and it turned out to last that long. Jae Yoon according to many people his face is ordinary, his added value is his gentlemanly attitude. She was always there when I needed her, so warm, and sweet. We often exchange ideas, from Jae Yoon I learned a lot of things.

Huh! thinking about Jae Yoon gets me excited again.

“Fihgting” says Seola.

After work, I was with my two friends eating and drinking at our favorite meat restaurant since High School. We told her many things, especially the anxiety of couples at the age of 30, even we gossiped about the head of the marketing team Miss Shin who decided not to get married after often failing in romance.

Drtt,drtt shakes my phone interrupting our conversation. I saw Bo Ra and Seola nudging each other.

“Jae Yoon is already heading to our dinner spot. I'll be there soon” my farewell to both of them.

“Be careful, good luck!” bo Ra and Seola said in unison.
