BEYOND THE EYES

Chapter 1

‎10 years before....‎

‎-She is just wasting our time again. She will never be ready and we are going to miss the plane and our life ‎will be ruined. "If only she had understood the veracity of her words back then." ‎

‎-It"s not going to be the end of the world Cris, stop being so dramatic, we have been late before and ‎magically the earth is still revolving. ‎

‎-You won"t be saying that when we miss our plane, there is no way I"m flying last minutes or commercial. ‎

Julia finally understood that Cris biggest problem was not that they were going to be late, but the fact that ‎she may have to fly commercial if she missed this flight. And that in the world of Cristina Laurel Evans ‎was a fate worse than death, how could SHE of the higher order mingle with mere mortal? Julia laughed ‎at the train of thought that had just entered her mind. How could she of all people be judging Cris, the girl she ‎believes walked on water. ‎

‎-‎ Come out of it already, I"m sure you will still be ugly when you come out.‎ Cris yelled again. Finally tired of being yelled at Zara decided that she looked decent enough and that how she looked would have to be enough for her boyfriend.

- Ok I"m out, you won"t have to sit in commercial your majesty, let"s go. Said Zara with her eyes filled with restrained sarcasm.

Cris looked toward the door and at Zara she was wearing a simple ample white shirt with the words "Me First" in red, the shirt was half tuck in a washed-out boyfriend dark jeans, that did nothing to accentuate Zara long and s.e.xy legs. Cris heart contorted a little because she couldn"t help but compare herself with her friend. She had known Zara and Julia since childhood. The three girls had always been compared to one another as long as they could remember. Where Zara had always had G.o.d given proportions, she was slim but not skinny, and those legs of hers where s.e.xy that Cris felt jealous of her own 1m 65 cm.

Jul could tell that Cris thought were turning dark the moment that Zara had appeared, and quickly move forward to block the girl vision. She could never understand why Julia always insisted of comparing herself with Zara. Yes Zara and her twin brother had clearly inherited all of their parents good genes and looked like she belong on same runaway that her mother had conquered and her brother was trying hard to conquer. But Zara had also inherited her father stronger bookish nature and innate sense of business. So the girl that was making Cris blood boils at the moment was not even aware of her own beauty.

- So what are we still waiting for! Zara said snapping both Jul and Cris from their thoughts. The three girls turn around to brags their luggages and pa.s.sport when a loud "klonk" was heard from outside.

Present day.....

Bip..._ Mr Kang you have a letter, and Mrs. Kang also told me to remind you that you have a blind date tonight.


Sigh... Jae-Young closed is eyes and looked at slowly turned his office chair around decisively turning the his back to the door then stood up. His secretary entered the office and once again she was shocked at how perfect her boss looked from behind. And the brooding but charismatic that emanated from him was enough to make anyone silent. She snapped out of her reverie and place letter that had an urgent sealed on it on the desk then Said.

- Your letter sir. She waited for him to turn around or answer but nothing like that happened so she slowly back away and left. After hearing the door close Jae-Young turned around grabbed a letter opener, then with one swift move opened the letter. A single piece of paper was inside and on it was written two simple word in red "Me First". Jae-Young froze and his blood receded from his face, he shakely grabbed his phone and dialed a number.
