Give Me A Smile
Totally Not Invisible
Jung Daehyun
After the landlady left, I go up to Kang Taeyang and notice that she's wearing sunglasses in the middle of the night. I ask her why and she quickly says "I have a hangover, light hurts." And shies away. Okay, something is definitely up, so I grab them and she closes her eyes tight and curls up into a ball on the floor. The boys come over, wondering why she did that and I lift her chin up to look at us. "Open your eyes," I bark and they snap open. We all leap back, scared of the eyes that stared back at us. She snatches her sunglasses back, putting them on, grabbing her suitcase and going to her room. "Wow," Zelo breathes. "Those eyes are captivating." Me and Jongguk snicker and Youngjae says "Let's go see what she's doing." and we retreat to his room. He opens his laptop, pulling up the live surveillance and we see her go into the room, closing and locking the door. She leans on it, sliding off her shades, she sighs. She finishes cleaning in half an hour, but we were too busy making fun of the different faces that she was making. She goes and open the window, the breeze making her hair flutter behind her. I hear someone sigh, and I look to find Zelo staring at her with dreamy eyes. "Ya!" I say, shoving him over. She goes out onto the fire escape, but comes back in, closing the window, locking it, grabbing her wallet and leaving the room. Youngjae closes the laptop and we open his door a little to see her walk out of the apartment. "Follow her?" Jongup asks and we all nod. Grabbing our disguises, we follow her to reach a nightclub with karaoke. Looking at each other, we go in and get a karaoke room that has a window looking out on the dancing and stage. A waiter opens the door and asks if we want to order anything, we shake our heads and he nods. "There will be some good entertainment tonight, it will show on stage in a few minutes," We nod, thanking him and he leaves. "I wonder where she went." Himchan says and we agree, but suddenly we hear cheering from the club and we look down. Some person was standing on stage and the familiar beginning riff of 1004 blasts. "Ha, some wannabe is singing our song," Yongguk smirks and we continue to watch. The first line surprises us, the singer was a girl. "I need you," She sings and suddenly the lights flash and she's dancing the choreography from the MV. "Wa~" Jongup says, amazed. We watch the crowd scream and lurch forward, trying to reach her. Yongguk calls the waiter back and asks for mics that will project along with her. He shakes his head, he can't do it, they're paying her to perform. We shrug, but keep watching her. At the end of her time, we go back to the apartment and gather in the living room. "So, we never found Taeyang, but we found someone with an amazing voice that is performing in those shit holes to make a living." I say and the boys nod. The door opens and Taeyang walks in, sweating, but something glowed about her. She walks past us and the smell of cigarette smoke, alcohol and people wafts over to us. It smelled exactly like the club. I suddenly notice something, "Hey guys, what shoes was that girl wearing when she danced?" I ask and Zelo replies "She was wearing these awesome red Adidas. I remember cause I wanted them." We laugh at him and I get up, going to the pile of shoes that we'd all discarded after coming in. I pick up the pair that Taeyang had just kicked off and hold them up. "Wait what." Himchan says, blinking as we all stare at the bright red Adidas in my hands. "No way~" Zelo says and is totally blown away. I check the bottoms of the shoes and find that they were smooth, the bottoms were so worn that the tread was gone. "Let's talk to her tomorrow." Yongguk says and we all agree, going to our rooms and sleeping.
The next morning, we all make sure to wear clothes when we go out to the living room and find Taeyang already leaving the kitchen and slipping her feet into her Adidas. "Don't you have school?" She asks and leaves. Glancing at the calender, Youngjae shouts "Today's the first day!" And we all scramble around.
