-Sky Lein's POV-
Finally! My dream to work abroad came true! I'm soooo excited!
*Flashback*
All applicants are gathered at the hall. The Agency Manager is speaking in front of us.
"After the careful review and deliberation of the works of the candidates who applied for the Makeup Artist, we already select someone to be deployed to our international client"
I hope that I'm the lucky one! But if it's not for me, then it's okay.
"Sky, the company selected you to be deployed as the Makeup Artist of the XXX Group, one of the biggest companies in the entertainment industry. Congratulations!"
"OMG! Thank you so much!" I just blurted out. Everyone congratulates me. :)
"Wait for our call and we will settle all your papers. Well deserved!'
*End of Flashback*
Now, I'm here! The city is really beautiful :) It's like a dream :)
I am now walking :) My luggage is quite heavy, but it's okay :) I want to walk my way to my apartment.
I'm in the middle of appreciating everything when someone bumped into me, "Oh my-" I wasn't able to finish my words because the man who bumped me covered my mouth.
"Help me! Please!" I looked at him and he seems to be in trouble. He then realized that he covers my mouth forcefully.
"Oh! I'm really sorry! It wasn't my intention to hurt you. But please help me!" He looks so worried on his surroundings. Is he a thief? Why is that he seems like he's afraid to be caught?
"I know what you're thinking! I'm not a thief! Please help me hide from the bunch of girls following me!" Bunch of girls? Alright, maybe I should help him. I know it's weird to help a total stranger, but I sensed that he really needs help.
"Okay, then wear my cap. Let's exchange our scarf and remove your eyeglasses." I was about to remove his eyeglasses but he stopped me.

"W-wait! Not the eyeglasses! I-I.. Uh, I have an eye infection! Yes! I have that! So please not the eyeglasses!"
I sighed, infection huh? Fine, I'll play along with it. "Oh, okay. Then, let's walk now." I grabbed his arm, his muscular arm. I just noticed that he got a great figure. He's also tall and his complexion is really fair!
"Why are you grabbing me for a walk??! I told you to help me hide! Is this considered hiding?" I just looked through his eyes covered with eyeglasses.
"You know, the best way to escape is to pretend that you're not running away. Since we already exchanged some of our things, probably, those who run after you will never recognize you. Got it?" He suddenly realized it too.
"Oh, I got it. Thanks for your help!"
We're now continued walking. He calms down a little now. But I kept noticing that people always look at us. I just don't know why.
"Is your arm alright? If you want, I'll help you carry your luggage." He suddenly whispered. Then my vigilant self immediately answered him back,
"No! You think your scheme will work on me? If I'll let you handle my luggage, I'm pretty sure you will just run away with my things! So it's a BIG NO!" He just stared at me with a surprised look, then burst out into laughter.
"Hahahahahaha! Y-you really think I'm a thief huh? Why would I have an interest in a lady's luggage? You're so funny!" I walked fast away from him. Leaving him beyond.
"Just so you know, I helped you run away from the so called 'bunch of girls' and being vigilant is not a laughing thing! In our country, it isn't easy to trust someone who you just met on the street looking so suspicious!" He then walked towards me.
"Hahahaha! Don't be mad. I'm sorry. I really appreciate your help. It's just that I feel that you're tired now carrying your luggage from the time we walked." He was about to tapped my shoulder when a bunch of running girls bumped into him.
His eye glasses worn out, I got a glimpse of his face but he's too quick to put back the glasses. But I noticed that some of the girls who stared at him were whispering. Then they started to be hyped!
He suddenly grabbed my arm and my luggage, then whispered into my ear,
"Run as fast as you can!" I'm still lost with my thoughts, but he already grabbed me and we started running.
He's really fast, I can't catch up I forgot to tell him that I can't run like this. It's bad for my health.
"W-wait! Mister! W-wait..." I'm starting to feel bad now. I'm losing my breath. My heart beats so fast! When we reached the corner and seemed like no one was following us anymore, he left out a big sigh.
"Ahhhhhhh! Finally! We finally lost them!" I want to respond to him but I'm really not feeling well now. This is bad. I'm having shortness of breath now and it makes it difficult to speak, which he noticed.
"H-hey! What's wrong?" I still can't respond. He started to look worried.
"Oh my.. Are you sick? I'm really sorry. Do you have some medicine with you?" I can't focus now. I'm feeling dizzy. He said medicine, right?
"B-bag." The only word I said. He immediately opened my bag and looked for my medicine. He finally got it and made me drink it.
"There, there. Relax please. If you feel better, please tell me okay?" he said to me full of worries.
I was about to respond but my vision got more blurry and..
"M-miss!"
