SUNOO'S POV
We are now on our way to the location where Sunghoon needs to be, along with my mom whom we fetched from the company she works at.
"Your parents must be very busy that they can't come with you" my mom started causing me to look at them. I saw how Sunghoon forced a smile and started nodding while Yeji somehow froze from the mere mention of their parents. Whatever relationship they have with their parents, I think it's not good.
We all got out of the car upon entering the parking lot so the four of us decided to split up since Yeji and I can't enter the building.
"Bye! Yeji and I will take a look around okay? Please text me later mom" I reminded and followed along Yeji who was pulling me, excited to have fun.
They'll be okay right? I hope so.

SUNGHOON'S POV
It didn't take us long enough to register my form and some authentication needed for the guardian so we both decided to head back now after texting Sunoo to meet us in the parking lot.
"Are you feeling hot Sunghoon? I have a mini fan here in my bag"
"Oh, no thank you Mrs. Kim. I think I'm good"
"Okay, just tell me if you need anything okay?" She consoled before happily linking her arms with mine.
"Does Sunoo have a lot of friends in school?" She asked all of a sudden, her voice coated with worry.
"Yeah, he's very bright. There's no way he couldn't have any" I replied but somehow, it didn't satisfy her. What I said was true though, Sunoo may seem snappy around me but to the others, he's extremely bright and easy to get along.
I gulped my non existent saliva when I felt my heart racing from the sudden thought of him. There it is again.
I don't understand this at all...
"We should take a selfie okay? Here, you can hold it since you're so tall hmm?" I awkwardly took the phone from her and started angling it above us, lightly smiling. Is this what mother's do?
"Oh, bend down a little Hoon" she instructed which made me respond and freeze. She started fixing my hair neatly making me clench my jaw.
Everything seems so foreign to me. The thought of someone taking care of me somehow resolved something in me that I couldn't even respond to what I'm feeling anymore.
Are things always this peaceful and easy? Why... Then why am I suffering all along.
After taking the selfie, we saw my sister and Sunoo waving at us from afar, eating their ice cream happily. I intently watched the person who couldn't fail to make my heart thump like a beast. There he is, gleefully approaching us with my sister linking her arms with him.
He's beautiful.
"Why did you two get ice cream? We're going to eat after this!" Sunoo's mom scolded, lightly hitting her son causing me to smirk and teasingly looked at him. He rolled his eyes at me before entering the car with my sister.
Upon arriving at the chosen restaurant, Mrs. Kim did all the ordering process along with my sister who wanted to explore a lot of things, leaving me and Sunoo alone on the table. I reluctantly clenched my fingers now and then to somehow calm my heart. A habit I seemed to pick up around him.
"You were awfully quiet these days hyung. Something happened?" Those fox like eyes that holds thousands of emotions, his smile and everything about him is enough to make me question my beliefs.
You happened. Was what I wanted to answer but I chose to shake my head and smile instead.
Soon after, his mom and my sister arrived, followed with our food to which we ate happily.
"Lean closer to me dear, you're getting your food everywhere" Mrs. Kim uttered, signalling Yeji to lean closely as she gently wiped the corners of her mouth. I watched how my sister smiled after the action and poured Mrs. Kim a glass of juice.
I knew she'll like being with them. This is what I wanted for her... something that I think was impossible from the very start.
"Take care on your way home Sunghoon, drive slowly since you're with your sister. Tell her to come visit me some time, I would love to spend time with the two of you again" she happily said, bidding her goodbye as Sunoo and her got out of my car. It didn't take long for me lock my gaze with him, trying to understand what his eyes wanted to tell me.
"Bye hyung. Take care" with that, he turned his back.
I continued driving back to our house with the car ride being silent because my sister fell asleep.
"Yeji, we're home"
"Hmm? Can you carry me on your back please?" She cutely asked, half awake. I scoffed from her request but still bent down so she can climb behind my back. I adjusted her position to make her comfortable as she she wrapped her arms around my neck.
"Sunghoon..."
"Hmm?"
"Let's do this again...This was the happiest I have been in years"
"Okay. You can take a rest now"

JAEYUN'S POV
"FINALLY! THE LOCK IS FIXED" I celebrated, running around my condominium before plopping my body on the couch.
"Cannon Ball!!"
"OH NI-KI DON'T YOU DARE—" I groaned loudly when the youngest threw his whole body on top me, completely squeezing the living daylight out of me. It's currently Sunday and Heeseung and I finally got out condominium back after the whole lock incident. This Nishimura here, somehow tagged along.
He's freakin everywhere!
"I'll cook now, you guys can pick the movie" I heard Heeseung announced from the kitchen, causing Ni-ki to get all excited and turned on the flat screen, happily browsing through Netflix. It took us a quite a while to pick since Ni-ki is a hard headed kid. We stopped bickering after we both heard Heeseung calling for me.
"Hey Jake! I need you to taste this first" I threw a pillow at Ni-ki before running away so he can't perform his revenge, chuckling. As soon as I arrived, I saw Heeseung blowing on the spoon before positioning it in front of my mouth to which I gladly tasted.
"It's a little bland hyung" I honestly commented, earning a nod from him before grabbing the salt on the other side of the counter. After mixing it in, he made me try it again and this time, it was much more tastier so I gave him a thumbs up and started placing all the used equipments on the sink.
I watched him stir on the pot while sauteing some of the side dishes and I couldn't help but admire him. Jay is a really good cook but Heeseung hyung is also reliable. He's also smart, friendly and is very attractive too. If I was a girl, he'd definitely be my type.
"You know hyung...If I wasn't a man, I'd definitely fall for you" I joked but he didn't respond and remained frozen.
Bruhh, does he not like jokes like this?
"Why? Even if you're a man, can't you fall for me?" I froze on my spot as soon as I heard his reply. He then turned around to look at me, meeting my gaze with the most serious look he could ever muster.
"Wha—"
"Kidding, can you pass me the bowl?"
"O-Oh uh...yeah s-sure" God knows how badly I wanted to slap myself for stuttering. He was just kidding Jake. I passed him the bowl before turning my back and leaving the parameter, clutching my pounding chest.
What the fck was that about?! But for some reason...
Deep down...
I somehow wished he wasn't kidding.
