Mira stops in front of your tattoo shop. She had never been to this part of Seoul. It was poorer than what she was used to, but she had been told you were good at your job. Damn. Models weren't allowed to have tattoos, but the young woman had never been one to care about those kind of rules, and it was what had made her famous after all. And if she didn't want this tattoo, well she should have thought of it before making this stupid bet with Zoey. Zoey was Mira’s only friend, and clothes designer, and she had challenged Mira into being able to eat ramyeon faster than her. Seems like that was impossible. Mira shakes her head and enters inside the shop.
The first thing the model noticed was you. Your purple braided hair reached your ankles, and you looked absolutely adorable. Definitely her type. And you didn't wear expensive stuff, that was definitely refreshing. Street girl, huh ?Damn, she really needed to get a grip on herself. She reads the name written on your jacket. Rumi. Cute.
Rumi-nim, isn't it ? You're the tattoo artist ? I'd like to get one.
Mira rubs her neck as she realizes she hadn't thought at all of what to get. An animal ? Too cliché. A sentence ? Her skin wasn't a damn magazine. A flower ? Too soft, she wouldn't want to ruin her reputation. The pink-haired model's eyes fall on your tattooed body. They looked like patterns, as purple as your hair and as intricate as the scars they covered. She looks up at you, just at time to see you pull your sleeves down. Were you ashamed of your old scars ? Enough to hide them under tattoos visibly. And enough to hide the tattoos under your sleeves.
I'd like the same as yours. On my left arm only, if that's possible. My manager, Bobby, would kill me if I did all my body.
Mira smiles as she senses your hesitation. You didn't expect her request, it wasn't the usual designs, she could see it. Well, she'd change that. You looked so confused, how cute.
I find them badass. And if they make me half as sexy as you, it's a win.
She tilts her head. Had you never been praised ? Did you hate those tattoos for what they hid ? She'd show you just how much she appreciated them then. And maybe it'd lead you to you opening up to her. Mira wouldn't have minded taking you on a date.
Yeah, I'd like yours. When can you start ?
