RED VELVET Alam Semesta Paralel

Episode 8. Denyutan

Morning came, warming the room up for Seulgi who's left in the room alone.

The queen went to check on her, just to make sure that she's not causing trouble.

And of course she's not.

She's still in the room, covered with blanket and is in deep sleep.

Irene

What a sleepyhead. Wake up!

Seulgi

What's this...

Seulgi groans as if she was dead tired.

Seulgi

That wasn't a dream? Oh geez.

Seulgi

Why are you waking me up already? It's still dark out there.

Annoyed, the queen had no choice but to pull Seulgi's blanket away.

Irene

The sun is out there burning!

Seulgi gets up, slowly opening her eyes, while Irene stood right in front of her.

The moment Seulgi got a glimpse of her, she knew her heart skipped a beat.

Seulgi

You scared me!

Seulgi

Oh dear. What-- Why-- Why are you dressed like that?

Irene

What? What's wrong with it?!

Seulgi

Ahh... Nothing?

Irene

Good. Now get up. Dress up and meet me outside.

She left Seulgi dumbfounded.

Seulgi

What was that...

After changing into something quite unexpected, Seulgi went on her way...

Seulgi

I feel like I'm playing cosplay here.

Seulgi

Well, it looks nice... actually.

She whispers to herself, looking at her reflection.

Irene

Can you not move any faster?

Seulgi

Fine. But, why are dressed like a ghost?

Irene

And why are you holding a rose?

Seulgi

Ahh, this? Uh, I just felt like it matched my outfit so, I went out with it.

Seulgi

I took it from a vase inside? You won't kill me for that, would you?

Seulgi

Should I get one for you also?

Irene

Huh?

Seulgi ran inside. She came back with another rose of another color.

Seulgi

Here, a white rose would fit your outfit. And, I got you a veil. It's better to look like a bride than a ghost with an umbrella.

Irene

How many times do I have to tell you not to mock me?

Seulgi

I'm not. I'm just being honest with you.

Seulgi

Here, let me do it for you...

Seulgi

See, it looks better than before. I can no longer see your glaring eyes!

Irene

What?!

Seulgi

Let me see you on a pose.

Seulgi

Maybe something like this?

Irene

Like this?

Seulgi

Wow, you're really something else...

Irene

Get rid of these. What am I even doing with you...

Seulgi laughed at the thought of making the queen follow her orders.

Seulgi

You're funny. What was I supposed to do with you today by the way?

Irene

I was supposed to teach you things like this...

Seulgi

What? You mean fashion?

Irene

Yes, you'll need this in the future I'm sure. But I guess I don't have to teach you after all. Just do something else today.
