The ride in the van was silent. Chaewon nor your manager decided to talk to you as you just looked down at the ground. Once in the parking garage, you opened the door and made your way up to the apartment. Time just flew as you were suddenly at your front door. 

Once the passcode was typed in, you made your way into the home and ran into your room. Seeing there was no one in there, your hand quickly locked the door and then threw the box on your bed. Ripping it open, you found a small envelope in the center of the box. 

Pulling it out, you opened it and found writing that you recognized as your mother’s. 

Call me. I hope you liked your gift.

An annoyed grunt left your mouth as your hand pulled out your phone. Finding your mother’s number, you rang her up waiting for her to pick up. As you heard someone pick up, you didn’t even let them get a word out. 

“MOM, WHY?” 

“Why what? Did you enjoy your gift? Is Porter there with you?” 

“No, he’s not here mom. I-I got in the van and left him there.” 

Silence is all that could be heard. You could already tell your mother was not happy. 

“Huh Yunjin. I taught you not to be rude. Why would you do that?” 

“Because I’m not ready to meet him in person yet!” 

“So when will be the right time? When you are both senior citizens? You always say you aren’t ready. Why?” 

Before you could answer you heard the door handle begin to rattle a bit. 

“Unnie? Are you ok?” 

“I-I’m fine Eunchae. Just on a call with my mom.” 

“Oh sorry. I’ll go.” 

As the sound of footsteps hit your ears, you heard a ring come from your phone. Your mother was now wanting to do a facetime call. Picking it up, you could see the angry look on her face. 

“Why do you keep saying you aren’t ready?”

Hesitation is what you felt before you spoke until it just came out of your mouth. 

“What if he acts differently because I’m an idol? Do you know how many times he told me Yunjin from Lesserafim was his bias? Not only that, I have been lying to him for a year now.” 

As your mother looked at you, her angry stare became one of care. 

“You have known Porter for over ten years now. Does he seem like the type to change because of that? If I recall correctly he always said Yunjin was his bias because she seemed like the two he could be great friends with. That’s what you told me he said. He will still treat you like his best friend, he will also understand why you kept it from him. What is the real reason you are scared to see him?”

It wasn’t until your mother said those words that you realized those weren’t the real reasons.

“Yunjin, Sweetie. Be honest with yourself. What is the reason?” 

“What if he doesn’t love me?” 

You were shocked those words left your mouth but that was the real reason. 

“Sweetie. Do you really think a boy who spends all his time waiting to talk to a girl, even sacrificing his sleep, doesn’t love her? I have seen how the two of you talk over the years. That boy is head over heels for you and he had never even seen your face.” 

The source of comfort from your mother finally filled you with a confidence you never had before. 

“Oh my god. I LEFT HIM JUST STANDING THERE MOM!” 

“What are you doing talking to me then? Go find him!” 

“Right. Bye mom!” 

Unlocking the door, you yanked the door open. Out of nowhere, you felt a weight fall on your body as it dropped to the ground. On top of you was the combined weight of all of the Lesserafim members. 

Jumping off you, the girls all stood up and helped you up. 

“Sorry. We couldn’t help but be nosey. Are you ok Yunjin?” 

“I’m ok Kkura Unnie. I just really need to go find Porter.” 

“Yeah, manager Oppa doesn’t want us going out for the rest of the day sadly.” 

“Chaewon unnie. Can you talk to him, please? I need to talk to Porter Oppa.” 

“I’m sorry Yunjin but he said no exceptions. I do have a nice bit of information to share with you though. Guess who will be going to our fansign?” 

“P-Porter?” 

“Yeah, he will. Take that moment to say a few words to him.” 

“But I want to say more than just a few words!” 

“Why don’t you invite him to our Christmas party at the dorm? We can all talk to him more at the time also! Most of us will be leaving before midnight to visit our families so you can have some company until tomorrow as well.” 

“Zuha! You’re a genius!” 

“I know. So guess we are all meeting your future husband then.” 

A slight blush filled your face as the girls laughed. 

You were gonna try to make it up to him.
