Chapter 55 - At Universal Studios (2/2)

Finland was very impressed to see how quickly the notifications appeared and rolled on Jean's phone. Her friend was indeed very famous. They received so many comments and likes for their photo together.

After a while, she noticed that not only were there positive comments, negative messages and comments from the haters also appeared and condemned her for stealing 'their Jean'. Some even went as far as calling her 'slut'.

”Ouch... how could people talk like that...” Finland complained as she read some of the negative comments. ”Am I really that bad...?”

”No need to respond...” Jean said calmly. ”Such people will always be there. You cannot please everybody, especially on the internet. There are many psychopaths there. Let's just talk about other things.”

”Luckily I don't have an Instagram account,” commented Finland. ”Those psychopaths would definitely find my account and bully me there.”

”Yes, there's no need for you to make an Instagram account. I need social media because of my profession. Positive and negative comments, and even haters are very important in the entertainment industry; to use 'negative publicity is publicity'. I don't think it suits you.” Jean immediately closed his phone and changed the subject so that Finland would not continue to think about his fans' hate comments. ”I will go home next Thursday. Next weekend I have to get ready for various winter shows.”

”Oh... that's too soon...” Finland frowned. ”If only I could come along, it would be nice to see Paris.”

”Why not? You can take time off, right? Come to Paris in January. I will perform at the Men's Paris Fashion Week. After that, I will be free. We can travel around France. If you're lucky you can experience snow in January. You have never seen snow, right?”

Finland counted her savings in her head and decided that Jean's suggestion made sense.

”That's right... my savings should be enough to buy a ticket,” she murmured. ”Maybe it's time for me to travel and see Europe.”

”The thing is, if you come in January, we cannot go to Finland... There's no sun in Finland during the winter. If we go there I'll get winter depression,” said Jean, ”Later you should come again in the summer. We will go to Finland and see the midnight sun.”

”Okay...” Finland replied. She opened her phone and made a note to herself to plan a trip to Paris in January.

”Wow... I can't wait,” Jean said excitedly. ”Finally, Finland will be able to see my second home. Your birthday is on January 15, right? We must celebrate it in Paris. Think of it as a birthday present to yourself because you have worked very hard all this time.”

”You are right.” Finland nodded.

Finally, Finland can travel too, with her own money. She was very proud of herself.

Because her mood improved, Finland forgot about the incident with Katia and they continued having fun together at Universal Studios.

After so many years of living in Singapore, this was the first time she entered this amusement park. In the past, the ticket prices were too expensive for a poor student like her.

Now, she had enough money to pay for almost everything she wanted, especially because she did not need to spend any money on lodging and food ever since she started living in Rose Mansion. She was able to save almost all her salary in full!

They had fun in Universal Studios until closing hours and finally they went home with tired but happy hearts.
