It was an ordinary day, just like any other.
On most days when Kang had a schedule, she would leave home early.
But the apartment elevator she got on stopped immediately on the floor below.
She had never encountered her downstairs neighbors before, but the doors opened, and she found herself face to face with a woman.
The woman, dressed in extremely flamboyant attire, soon flashed a bright smile and gave a small wave.
“Hi, good morning.”
Her voice with a heavy Rsound echoed inside the elevator.
The cheerful woman, wearing high heels at least ten centimeters high, stepped onto the elevator with a clack.
Kang responded in clear Korean.
“Hello, good morning.”
“Oh, nice to meet you. I moved in recently.”
“……”
“I’m Jane.”
“?”
The moment she realized that what she had just heard, “Am Jane,” was “I’m Jane.”
Jane reached out to shake hands without any hesitation. Her long artificial nails adorned with brilliant cubic zirconias and sparkles drew her attention.
But before Kang could decide whether to take her hand or not, Jane withdrew her hand and pressed it to her own chest.
Then she exclaimed with a surprised look.
“Oh my gosh!”
Jane, who quickly turned serious as if she had seen a ghost, cautiously asked.
“Perhaps.”
“……”
“Aren’t you the celebrity, Seo Kang?”
Instead of answering, Kang gave a small smile.
Upon that, Jane’s already large eyes widened even more as she gave an amazing reaction.
“That’s right! Seo Kang!”
“Yes.”
“My God! I’m neighbors with a top star! I love you! I’m a real fan!”
She spoke in a peculiar accent.
Is she from New Zealand or Australia?
Regardless, it was a little bewildering, but since she was a fan, it seemed right to show a response to her friendly greeting.
“Thank you.”
She then lightly continued the conversation.
“Are you a foreigner by any chance?”
Jane seemed to have been waiting for the question.
“Hehe. I get that a lot. But I’m Korean through and through.”
One hand on her chest, she swayed the other in rhythm as she spoke.
… Somehow, it felt like receiving praise. Was it just her imagination?
Kang felt that Jane’s gestures and pronunciation were quite exaggerated for a regular Korean, but she dismissed it, thinking that she must have lived abroad for a long time.
But Jane, whose eyes were sparkling, took a step closer and started talking rapidly.
“Let’s get along from now on. I’m in a rush, so let me introduce myself briefly.”
“……”
“My name is Jane. And I’m a trainer. And my age is……!”
She who had been loudly following the rhythm opened her eyes wide and stretched the end of her sentence quite long.
Then, she brought the two hands that were pretending to beat a drum under her chin and spoke.
“Dog zodiac.”
“?”
“Woof woof woof!”
Jane, who was barking like a Pungsan dog, chuckled.
The piercing dangled on her bright red tongue as she laughed so much that her collarbone could be seen.
Startled and frozen, Kang watched as Jane winked at her.
“Normal selfintroduction is boring, isn’t it.”
Though almost losing her soul, she responded politely.
“If you’re a dog zodiac, you’re older than me.”
“Haha! It doesn’t matter. Age is just a number, we can be friends.”
Even though she was trying to laugh it off, it was her first time experiencing such tension, so she was unable to build up any immunity.
Even in front of fans who quietly approached for an autograph, she was flustered, let alone her neighbor downstairs is such an extraordinary character.
Jane spoke again to her, whose mind was complicated.
“I teach yoga and pilates. So, if you want to learn some exercise, contact me. I will train Seo Kang for free.”
She, who had been showing off her white teeth, offered her business card as she spoke.
“I’m quite famous. You can trust my skills.”
The elevator arrived meanwhile.
And at the same time, her phone rang.
“Oh! Then I will excuse myself first.”
Jane whispered bye to her, left a sticky wink and a hand kiss, and hurriedly left.
Kang, who was left standing dumbfounded in the place where the storm had just swept through, looked at the business card she had left behind.
The business card, which was the epitome of glamor, had her English name written on it, and Kang belatedly thought that Jane’s face seemed familiar somewhere.
She’s not a character that would be easily forgotten after one look.
‘… Where did I see her?’
Her eyes narrowed as she rifled through her memory.
.
.
.
After getting in the car, the image of Jane blowing hand kisses and disappearing continued to linger in her mind.
Until the car left the parking lot, Kang was filled with thoughts of her.
She was a character with a strong personality that would be engraved after seeing just once, but she couldn’t remember where she had met her or why her face seemed familiar.
‘Would it come up if I search?’
She picked up her phone, then suddenly looked at Sam Young, who was driving.
She thought he might know.
“Brother.”
“Hmm?”
“Do you know someone named Jane?”
“Jane?”
“Yeah. She’s a yoga and pilates instructor, just wondering if you know.”
“…Ah!”
