CELEBRITY, EVEN MINOR, was the bane of Moonsik’s existence. If he wanted to hear pompous shitheads ramble on about how perfect he was, he’d simply spend his night kissing a mirror. Yet, as a newfound best-selling author (the words still evoked chills across his forearms), he was required to show face at certain gatherings. As much as he enjoyed being fawned over, the idea of staying home and drinking himself into a stupor sounded much more appealing.
Not to mention his nagging publicist’s words ringing at the back of his mind, ‘bring a date. Make them think you’re somewhat sociable and not a living rock.’ Too bad the idea made him want to retch. But for once, complaining seemed to work in his favor. Alice, as she was known (better known as an annoyance to himself), forever eager to dig her nose in others’ business, was determined to be at the exact same dinner party.
“Yeah. Come with me. You get what you want and I get my publicist off my back.” To add in a dash of his infamous sociopath charm, he offered the tiniest of grins. The woman would be so lucky as to arrive on his arm. “We can buy you a dress, or something, because I have a feeling nothing you own would be suitable.” Tactless was known by another name and it was Moonsik.
In response to her question, he stared at her, a childish duh practically echoing through the motion. That was his eternal state after all. “I don’t know. Get me drunk and we’ll see what happens.” Typically, this was his response to everything. Being intoxicated at the event he was supposed to be preening at surely wouldn’t end well, but he had never be one to listen. And not even the beginnings of fame would change that.
