COMPLETED | Johnny has always been so close their stylist/make up artist, Gwen. However, Gwen decided to quit her job as a make up artist to pursue her greatest dream. What will Johnny do now that her favorite stylist whom he secretly likes is no lo...
"Stressful." she said. "A lot of guesting, a lot of music show, fan signing, practice, and everything."
"and it's just our second week as idols and it's already exhausting." she said to him.
"You'll get used to it." Johnny said.
"But..." Gwen looked into his eyes. "It's nothing compared to you guys, I know you and your members have gone through stressful times and it's nothing compared to a rookie like me."
"Hey!" Johnny muttered at her. Gwen's eyes widened at him.
"I told you this once and I'm telling you this again... Don't invalidate your exhaustion, don't compare it to others. Your efforts and sacrifices matter too." he said to her.
"Whether you are a newbie or you're already at the peak of your career, your efforts matter." he added.
Gwen just nodded at him. "You're right. I shouldn't be even saying that. I worked extra hard to be where I am today." she said to him.
Johnny smiled. "Good. I want you to be kind to yourself, Gwen."
Gwen just giggled. "Hyung, you're surprisingly nice to me today."
"I've always been, right?" he said.
"No." she said as a joke. John's mouth agape at her acting like he's shock.

"You've always been teasing me." Gwen added.
'That's because I like you, Gwen. Don't you get it?' he said in his mind.
"Well, let's just say I've already changed. I'm no longer childish." he said to her.
"So how are you guys?" Gwen change the topic.
"We're doing fine. We miss you as our stylist though." he said.
"I miss you guys as well and I miss being Johnny Suh's favorite stylist." she said to him and they both chuckled.
Suddenly, the smile in her face was erased.
"But... like I said... this is my greatest dream so... I had to give up being a stylist." she said to him with sincerity.
The smile in Johnny's face disappeared too when he saw Gwen frown. "Have you always wanted to be an idol?" Johnny asked.
Gwen pursed her lips and nodded. "Eversince I was a little girl." she said.
"I've always looked up to Girl's Generation unnies and Red Velvet unnies. They were my idol, my greatest inspiration." she said to him.
"How come you didn't audition for SM instead?" Johnny asked.
"I did." Gwen replied to him.
"Really?"
"But I failed..." she said to him and Johnny felt apologetic, there was a sudden change of facial expression. "I failed tha audition miserably."
