Kang Ara~ Episode 2

ARA

The chatters of rich people fill the ballroom. Listening to them makes my ears want to drop down and escape from this place. Their voices are so high pitch, the gossip and rumours are all the same. Their smiles forced and laughter planned. Even though this is a charity fundraiser no one talks about the actually charity it's self. Sure maybe they start of with that but the rest is just small talk.

" Ara dear, what do you think?"

Snap out of it. I need to pay attention to Mrs Kim. Ok focus, my mother will not be happy if I'm not nice to her.

" Oh, yeah I think you're right." I said whilst nodding my head. As long as you agree with them, you are respecting them. At least that's what I know.

" See Mrs Jeon? I'm right ha ha ha. Ara is such a wonderful child. Didn't you just come home from America recently?" Mrs Kim asks

" Yes Mrs Kim, I have came back from America. I was there to do my studies. " I reply, plastering a smile on my face.

" Wow America! You just be so smart!" Mrs Jeon says " I heard you went to Serene Academy and graduated at the top 1 percent of the school!"

" Oh, thank you Mrs Jeon!" I said smiling. Ever since I came back two days ago, all everyone wants to do is the meet the young miss of the Kang family. I lived in America for 6 years and this is my first time in Korea since. I wonder what mother has planned for me now that I'm back. Otherwise she would've let me stay there in America until I'm old and wrinkly. I was intrigued by the questions at first but now hearing any more talk will drive me crazy. I feel a vibration in my clutch. Yes! Perfect timing!

" Sorry to interrupt madams but I need to go to the powder room. Please excuse me" I said whilst smiling. And then I quickly ran to to the toilets. I opened every stall to see if any one was in there and then I locked the door with a chair I bought from the outside. I then picked up my phone.

" Hello? I thought you weren't going to pick up?" Jeremy said. Jeremy is not my boyfriend nor is he a friend or anyone close to me. He is a co worker. No not a co worker as in the person who you work with at MacFonalds or the annoying co worker that doesn't make any sales at your local MallMart. But Jeremy is kind of like that annoying person though. He is always trying to socialise. I pulled out my tight cute bun and let it go down in loose blonde waves.

" What Jeremy?" I asked whilst looking in the mirror.

" Your brother seems to be all over Erada city, I'm just warning you keep an eye out or anyone suspicious, it seems as if he's spying everywhere. " Jeremy replies.

" Okay Jeremy. Is there anything else? " I asked him in an aggressive voice

" Uh- N-No Miss that was all that Commander said." He replied. I then hung up the phone. The organisation has been annoying me a lot more than it has over the past. This is the real purpose of my training. To get to the bottom of whatever my brother has been doing. I know much less than what I would like to know, but of course the organisation wouldn't like letting an 18 year old girl know about their plans. But thats enough daydreaming, I need to get back out there. I redo my bun and re apply my blush. I slapped my face softly to help myself get in that cute heiress personality. And now I'm ready to head back out there. Even if I don't want to.

Walking out of the bathrooms I see mother talking with a tall black haired woman. Mother shoots me a look and and waves her hands towards my direction. This obviously means that I would need to come over. Mother wore one of her most expensive dresses , a turquoise floor length gown to a semi formal event. It was made to make her look rich but also quite friendly. That's when I looked at the person in front of her. Emerald eyed Mrs Han. No wonder. Even though our families are quite close, both being quite rich and powerful, our status isn't as big as the Hans.

"Hello, darling" Mother greeted as see painted a smile on her face " Mrs Han, this is my daughter Kang Ara, she has just finished high school at Serene Noble Academy. Ara, say hello to Mrs Han. "

" Hello Mrs Han" I said whilst bowing down slightly. Mrs Han smiles and me than looks at my mother again.

" Well then, the deal is made. " she said to my mother, she then looks at me again " Welcome to family Ara"
