please don't poke, if my mood dies it dies.

the min family has always been known for being the artistic family; not only they own the biggest art galleries in korea while being actively engaged in the grandest art events, they are also shareholders and investors for many art institutions which puts them on a relatively high spot amongst the big names. the press has portrayed the family as 'elegant, courteous and talented', for her father is a famous pianist while her mother is one of the million-dollar artists in korea. the artistic vibes from her parents seem to influence songyi as well, when she would have the chance to tag along to major art events and get free tickets to classical concerts just for being a min. but that was the only glamour that people see on the outside.

starting from whenever she could remember, songyi was arranged multiple talent lessons that range from ballet to singing, art to violin, even golf and swimming. what came along with that would be the reporters, with unknown sources who seem to know about all these, and there would be articles that extravagantly title her as the next prodigy of some sort. this created a pressure for her and her parents when they would supervise her and watch her progress closely, and punishments would be given when she made a mistake or show no improvement. days built up into weeks and months, eventually into years where she grew tired of this mode of living, but there was no exit from her parents who seemed to gain extensive control over her. the nightmare only elevated from there ever since she went to ChungA high.

she was constantly reminded that her last three years in the prestigious high school would be the most critical years as it holds a decisive key to her future. despite her wanting to quit all this that her parents had put her into by the age of 16, she still went to ChungA like a good puppet girl as she knew the only way to get rid of their control would be her growing up to be able to ecape from this cage. so she put up a front of a talented and smart girl despite her background, craving for attention as that validates her existence more than what she could get from her parents. although on nights she found herself unable to fully contain what she had pretended herself to be and broke down several times, every morning it would still be the same old thing - putting on her school uniform and go to school, be a good hardworking girl to maintain that image in front of the public. 

of course, her days were bound to not be easy at this point.

ChungA high is the most prestigious high school in the city. it is said that only the wealthiest and most powerful families could send their children to ChungA, and their future will be guaranteed as students graduating from ChungA never have to let university choose them; they can easily get in the top three SKY universities and along with that is their guaranteed career and path. that was what songyi's parents thought of when they managed to enrol her into the private school, but whatever happened from there is really out of their control and knowledge.

like a perfect replicant of the same mold of their parents, every kid has their own personality that would remind songyi of their parents, especially when your background is totally known by the whole school - there is no privacy for one. she put up a bright front despite her usual depressing true self, covering up herself for she wants no one to know the scars mapping her skin, or the bruises that would occasionally mark a spot. she managed to hide them in concealer, pretending to be the talented and smart girl setting she put upon herself, but nothing goes along the way she wants. her inferior complexity, jealousy and competitveness gained her a few rivals on class, and one of the biggest of them all - nari, even made her the public enemy in merely one night. all of a sudden, her popularity, friends in class all turned their backs against her and she became an outcast, until their graduation.

luckily, that incident did not affect her reputation outside of the class. while she was studying a double major of arts and business in Korea University, a few juniors managed to get her contacts and asked for her tutor. the deal started off as a quick casual one to earn some quick cash, but her reputation eventually spread until the penthouse owner's child came to her as well. when she was tutoring jihyun, thoughts would crumble her mind when she looked around at the grand penthouse, imagining herself being in this place instead of her shabby unit with her parents. they lived in the same building, but the difference of 30 floors almost felt like a weight on her shoulders, which pushed her to the edge when she eventually reached out to the dark, starting a second life - as a sugar baby for go minhyuk. she dreamt of the day when she became the owner of this place, but those days was not destined to last long when jihyun found out about the secret, meaning the surface of her seemingly flawless and wonderful life would all go in vain.

no, she cannot let her do that.
