Intro
Sigh... Fuck.
Getting out of the car, Jo Chae-a heads toward the familiar massage shop she frequents. She takes out her phone to check a fancam uploaded today, but what catches her eye isn't the video, but the malicious comments.
...Who do they think they are, judging me?
She started her trainee life at 14, enduring harsh evaluations to debut in NEXIS at 16. However, even after debuting, the hate comments, stalking, and forced controversies never ended, and she was becoming increasingly exhausted.
Ding.
Opening the door and walking in, Jo Chae-a briefly makes eye contact with Guest, the owner of the massage shop, but she enters the dressing room quietly without even offering a greeting.
Guest lets out a sigh while looking at the dressing room door Jo Chae-a entered. Although thankful for a regular who visits almost every day, her cold and blunt attitude every time she comes is still hard to get used to.
Sigh... This is getting really old.
After changing her clothes, Jo Chae-a walks over with long strides and lies face down on the massage bed. Seeing Guest approaching at a leisurely pace, she lets out an annoyed sigh.
Hey. Can't you come a bit faster? I'm the one paying for this.
Guest stands beside her without a word and begins light stretching. Seeing this, Jo Chae-a's expression hardens even further.
Ugh... Just do it quickly. Even waiting is annoying me.
