My Annoying Superstar's
Christian Reveals the Answer
July looked at the camera.
“Good, keep”, shouted the photographer. “ Okay we finished”, he said again after how many shots.
July let out a tired sigh and stood aided by her assistant and manager. After changing clothes, July walked out of the photo shoot while sipping her cold coffee.
“ Next time you have a July ad shoot. You have time will be noon only 15 minutes, so we eat in the car course”, explained alpha manager July.
“ I want French fries”, said July.
“ We have bought. Come fast”, Alfa said in July.
July was walking fast but suddenly stopped when he saw Cruz at the end of the hallway with his manager. They were talking in front of the training room opposite the shooting room.
It felt like July wanted to go say hello to Cruz, but she paused her intentions. He recalled Jay saying that Cruz no longer loved him, it felt like there was a gaping wound in his heart.
Jay's words were like a slap to him. Awakening him about the situation now with Cruz. No matter how loud he screams, Cruz won't hear it. As hard as July tried, Cruz would never look at her again.
“ Come July. We have no time”, Alfa said as she pushed July slowly into the elevator.
July stood in the elevator while sipping her cold coffee. Thinking of the stupid matchmaking he was about to face. Think of how to separate Cruz and Noa. What he should do.
“ Brother Alfa, where is my phone”, July asked for his phone.
Alfa hands over July's phone and they rush to leave CAIN Entertainment's parking lot.
Incoming message reads on July's phone.
Jay: How? have you thought about my offer to go abroad?
July: I'm thinking about it. I haven't been able to decide anything.
Jay: I hope you decide the best.
July stared at Jay's message and let out a frustrated sigh. If July is really going to be betrothed, then the only way is for her to run abroad. But his desire to get back with Cruz still fills him. July was still thinking of a possible hope.

Tian parked his car in front of Noa's house, how long after Noa got out of the house. She looked beautiful and smiled cheerfully towards Tian.
“ Hi, long wait ya?”, asked Noa.
“ No. I'm not tired of waiting for you” Tian said with a different intent.
Noa smiled unconsciously at the meaning of the words from Tian.
“ Let's go”, Noa said as she got into the car and sat down next to Tian.
They then drove towards the edge of town. Along the way Tian and Noa continued to chat. Talk about things that make them sometimes laugh together.
After a long journey, they finally arrived at the beach. Noa came down and greeted the fragrance of sea water cheerfully. For a long time he had not set foot on the white sand.
Noa took off her shoes and walked closer to the sea water, leaving a smiling Tian looking at her from behind.
The beach is not too crowded, some small children are playing with their parents. Make a sand castle and run around. Noa looked at them and smiled.
“ Do you often go to the beach?”, Noa asked Tian who was standing next to her.
“ Yes, first. I used to go to the beach with my mom. But after my mother died, I have never been here until today”, Tian said with a smile on his face.
Noa's words stunned Tian. True what Noa said, all the memories with his mother are the happiest things in his life. Why did he refuse to go to this beach? not because these memories were painful but because of his heart's fear of the deep sadness of reminiscing about his mother.
Taking Noa with him to this beach was the right decision. He would not be afraid to feel lonely and sad.
“ There is one good seafood store here. You want to try?”, asked Tian.
“ I want. Which side?”, asked Noa.
“ There. It was my favorite place and my mother used to be, hopefully still open”, Tian pointed towards the other side of the road.
“ Let's go”, take Noa.
“ Noa, but do you have any seafood allergies?”, asked Tian.
“ No. I'm only allergic if I don't have money”, Noa said with a full smile.
Tian laughed at Noa's reply. “ Alright Miss realistic, let's eat “, take Tian to Noa.
They walked down the beach to the tavern Tian was referring to. The shop was not as big as the others, the owner was a middle-aged woman with a teenage boy.
The wall that was getting worn out seemed new to be repainted a few days ago because the smell of paint was still slightly felt in Noa's nose. The woman welcomed Tian and Noa, this tavern quite had a lot of customers.
Noa and Tian sat by the window. The waiter came to give me a menu book. Tian orders grilled fish with while Noa orders prawns.
" I'm sure you'll love the food here" Tian said with great confidence.
" I'm curious. Is the food here as good as that?" Noa said. "How did you find this store?", asked Noa.
" I was with my mom who found this store. According to my mother, usually the place to eat the most people come to is not necessarily delicious. So we tried to eat in this tavern and it turned out to be really good" Tian said. "But that was then, hopefully it's still that good" Tian laughed.
Noa laughed at Tian's words.
When the order came, they ate and chatted casually. There was no heavy talk that made Noa feel burdened until the moment they were going home.
They stood once again on the same beach. Tian looked at Noa's back with anxious expectation. Tian walked up to Noa and stood beside the girl.
" Noa", call Tian while turning his position towards Noa.
" Yes?", Noa answered.
" I want to charge your answer regarding my feelings" Tian said.
Noa fell silent, she did not expect Tian to actually charge an answer about her feelings towards Noa. Tian looked at Noa expectantly.
" I really like you. I think of you every day", Tian clasped Noa's hand. " Be my girlfriend, I'll make you happy" Tian said.
Noa was speechless not answering Tian's statement for a moment.
" Tian, I'm sorry. I always thought we were friends. I can't accept your feelings" Noa said.
Tian smiled. " I know you have a lover now, I won't force you because I know you're a good girl. But I will wait, until you realize that I really love you" Tian said still holding Noa's hand.
Noa could only be silent stunned.
