Krystal POV
"How dare you! " Sulli hissed at Mei Mei's.
I sensed Mei Mei and the twins caught up to us and I heard Mei Mei gasped.
I turned around and saw tears welling up in her eyes.
Theresa (Mei Mei's cousin) threw her head back and laughed.
"Of course I dare!" She turned to Mei Mei and took a step forward.
I stood in front of Mei Mei, making Theresa stop and scowl.
"Really Mei Mei? Did you really think I would never ever ever come to the shed, and see all your disgraceful things?!" She sneered.
"Yes. I did think that. But, of course, you proved me wrong."
Mei Mei said, her bottom lip trembling. Tears threatened to escape her eyes.
"Omo! Are you going to cry? Is little Mei Mei going to cry? How. Un. Ladylike." She spat.
"You're the one who is being very unlady like right now." I hissed.
She turned to look at me with a disgusted look on her face.
"Oh, so you're still here? I thought your little friends would have left you by now. Like they always do."
Furious at her taunting, Sulli took a few step towards Theresa menacingly.
"I don't care who you are or what your relations are to Mei Mei, but you should not talk to her like that."
Theresa sneered.
"And who, are you, to talk to me like that??"
I rolled my eyes.
"Sure, you're older than us, and should be spoken to with respect, but frankly, I don't think you deserve it."
Mei Mei tugged at my shirt and I turned around.
"Let me take it from here."
I stepped back uncertainly and Mei Mei stood forward.
Sulli stepped back as Mei Mei started to talk to Theresa in Chinese.
The conversation heated up and ended with a pale Theresa and shaking-in-fury Mei Mei.
"Maybe you should go now unnies and oppa. I'll see another day if that's OK?"
I looked over at Krystal and the twins uncertainly.
"Jebal unnie." Mei Mei pleaded.
"Alright. Kaja." I said to the others.
"Annyoeng Mei Mei." She barely acknowledged us as we went out but I didn't mind.
"That was."
" So intense."
The twins whispered.
I smacked their heads.
"Shut it you two."
"We should tell Victoria unnie and Amber and Luna unnie." Krystal said.
I nodded.
"Should we drive over or call? " I asked.
We pondered on the thought and Bom decided for us.
"They're probably not home since they were going to drop Amber unnie off. Just call them."
I nodded.
"You're right."
She flipped her hair.
"When am I not?"
I rolled my eyes.
"By the way, don't ever call Amber, 'unnie'. She'll murder you." Krystal added casually.
Bom nodded.
"I've always wondered why you never called her unnie."
"Wait, does that mean I can't call her noona?"
We all facepalmed.
"Obviously Jiyong...."
--------
"Ok. My phone is out of juice so you're gonna have to be the one to call Victoria unnie."
I said to Krystal.
She nodded and called Victoria.
After a moment, Victoria answered and Krystal spoke.
"Yeobeoseyo? Unnie? It's me, Krystal."
"Well..um..something happened.." She said uncertainly.
She sighed and handed the phone to me.
"Here. You explain."
She said wearily.
--------
Victoria POV
"SHE DID WHAT?" I exploded.
"I'll call you back Sulli."
Hanging up, I looked for Luna.
"Luna?"
I heard her answer from upstairs and I ran towards her voice.
"What's wrong unnie?" She asked me worried.
I grit my teeth.
"Theresa found Mei Mei's stash of technology."
Luna gasped.
"Jinja? !"
I nod.
"But that's not all."
She raised an eyebrow.
"What else did she do?"
"She destroyed some of it."
"MWO? !"
I winced at the volume, not being used to it.
"After Krystal and Sulli confronted her, Mei Mei found out and started to argue with Theresa."
"Poor Mei Mei." Luna whimpered.
"She asked the girls and the twin to leave. Sulli's really worried. So is Krystal."
"Now I am too."
Luna sighed.
"Me too Luna. Me too."
"Maybe we should go over to Sulli's house?" Luna suggested.
I nodded.
"You are thoughtful. We should also ring Amber and tell her what happened."
Luna agreed and I grabbed the car keys for, yet another journey in the car.
--------
Sulli POV
"Unnie! Victoria and Luna unnie are coming over! "
"Alright!" I shouted to Krystal and thanked her for telling me.
"What to do, what to do." I muttered as I prepared something to eat. I'm starving! And so is Krystal -_-
*wails* She's going to eat all my food! *sniff*
"I heard that unnie!" Krystal shouted and I retracted.
Did I say that out loud?
"You wailed!"
Oops.
*RING DING DONG*
"Get the door for me will you? " I asked Krystal.
I then heard her ask Bom the same question who, in turn, asked Jiyong.
I shook my head.
"You know what? I'll do it my damn self."
I quickly dried my hands as the person rang the doorbell again.
"I'm coming! " I called.
I ran to the door and I saw Krystal about to open the door.
"Oh good good! You're here." She must have aimed at the table, but she dropped the key onto the floor and it bounce under the table.
And with that, she left. Without. Even. Opening. The. Damn. Door.
What am I going to do with her?! Siriusly!
"Who was it?" I asked her she just hmmmhed in a I-don't-know tone.
*sighs*
She didn't even look either.
As if to remind me, the person rang the doorbell again.
"Alright alright!" I called and looked for the key.
Where on Exo Planet is it! ?!
Ummm, I don't know, under the table maybe Sulli?
Shut up subconscious.
The person rang the bell 3 more times.
"Sheesh." I said to myself.
"This person is soooo off my Christmas list. I've only ever know one person who was so impatient and he.....moved...away." I trailed away at the last part and stood there motionlessly.
It's been a few years since he moved away. ...
The person outside eventually gave up as I continued to drown in my thoughts.
"Oops." I said once again.
I finally found the key and inserted it to the key...lock?
I quickly opened the door to see if the person was still here but there was no one in sight.
Oh well.
I walked back inside the house, almost falling due to a sudden wave of tiredness.
Regaining my balance and thinking nothing of it, I walked to the living room, where The Return of Superman was being played.
"Sarang is just adorable! Oh!! It's Haru's turn!! Yay! !" Krystal squealed over the adorable 2 and 4 year old.
She glanced at me as I came in, not sparing me more than a second.
"So who was at the door?" She asked.
"You wouldn't know huh? I wonder why." I said irritated.
She rolled her eyes.
"Well? "
"I don't know. They left before I could find out."
"You must have taken ages."
"No thanks to you. You do realise that you dropped the key on the floor and it fell under the table? "
She winced.
"Ugh, I hate when that happens. "
I sighed. Whatever.
I sat down next to her.
"Omo, Haru is just too kyeopta! And so is Sarang!" Krystal squealed again.
"You're rewatching from the beginning? " I asked her.
She nodded.
"Yup."
This girl loves this show way to much.
Probably because it has people her age on it.
"You need to learn to keep your thoughts to yourself." Krystal grumbled.
I hehehed sheepishly.
" I'ma go and eat ma food now."
THIS TIME, I THOUGHT THE THOUGHT IN MY HEAD SO THAT KRYSTAL WOULD NOT KNOW MY PLAN AND SHE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO STEAL MY FOOD.
*Evil "genius" laugh*
I'm so smart.
I started eating my snacks only to be interrupted again.
*RING DING DONG *
AGAIN.
I sighed.
"Can I not eat in peace?" I stood up and almost fell again because of Krystal rushing past me.
"You were eating!" She said accusingly.
"Whatever. Just get the door and I'll let you have some."
She flipped her hair and ran to the door.
A moment later, Victoria and Luna's voice could be heard.
"Hey unnie." I greeted them as they came in.
I offered them each a cookie and they both accepted with a greeting.
Krystal joined us in munching and we munched for a while, letting Silence have some time with us.
"What are we going to do about Theresa?" Luna asked, making Silence go away.
I shrugged.
"Maybe we should talk to Mei Mei's sister? Maybe she doesn't know that the two fight about Mei Mei's behaviour. "
Victoria thought about it.
"It is a possibility but also unlikely. Maybe she's the same and Mei Mei didn't say anything."
We all pondered on the thought as Silence visited us once again.
--------
"I'm going shopping for a bit. Anyone wanna come?" Victoria asked, getting up and stretching her arms and legs.
We all decided to go with her and soon left the house after telling the twins.
"You know, even though they're 17 now, I still don't really like leaving them at home alone."
I said, more to myself than the others.
Victoria hummed.
"Same with me. I just get kind of worried about what Seung-Hyun gets up to, I am so tempted to Go Crazy and set up cameras."
...Silence...
"No unnie. That's just creepy." Krystal said.
I looked outside and we had just to pass Dino's house, giving me only a glimpse of the house.
I swear I saw him though. It's probably just because he used to live there though.
I sighed deeply and Luna seemed to notice.
"Sulli? Gwenchana?"
Her question caught the others' attention.
I shook my head.
"I'm fine. Just thinking of an old.." I hesitated.
"Friend."
"You hesitated." Krystal said bluntly.
"Yeah, Ok. " I said, not bothering to say anything.
"It's too quiet." Krystal complained and tool out her phone.
"I'm going to put my playlist on shuffle yeah?"
We nodded, not minding.
Big Bang's 'Fantastic Baby' came on and we all sang along loudly, with Krystal shaking her head violently when the chorus came on, us laughing at her we she did.
--------
We arrived at the mall pretty quickly, and thankfully just as Fantastic Baby ended.
I just hate it when I have to stop a song before it's finished for some reason or another. Absolutely detest it.
"UNNIE PALLI. THE MALL WON'T STAY OPEN FOREVER YOU KNOW!"
Krystal shouted before running into the closest shop, which, was a cake shop.
Thanks to Krystal, we got7 out of the car in record time.
The cake shop displayed lots of yummy treats, just begging to be bought.
"We should hurry up and go in before Krystal buys the shop."
It wouldn't be the first time she's tried.
With this thought, we hurried into the shop.
There was a small line of people, mainly elderly people and a few mothers with young children.
As we spotted Krystal, and got7 closer to the crowd, I noticed a little girl, crying, and her mother, seeming very embarrassed, hissing at her.
I slowly walked over discreetly to see if I could find out what was the matter.
The girl's mother soon gave up and just looked through the shop's book of cakes.
I was going to talk to the little girl, but it looks like someone beat me to it.
A guy..maybe in his 20s bent down to the little girl's height.
It was hard to see his face since he had a mask on. The ones that you put on when you're cleaning the toilets, or wear to avoid the pollution in the air.
He started to speak and I leaned in closer.
I saw the others come closer out of the corner of my eye.
"Hey there cutie. Uljima, don't cry."
The little girl sniffed. Her mother didn't seem to notice the guy and continued looking at the cakes.
"Why are you crying little one? "
Oh gosh, this guys voice sounded so familiar, super hot by the way.
"I'm hungry and I want to eat thome (some) cake but omma thaid (said) that I'm not allowed eat any cake or theetieth (sweeties) becauthe I'm getting too fat." The girl said sadly with a hiccup.
My heart melted and I heard Krystal 'aw' a little in the background.
The guy straightened his back a little, as if offended.
"You want to hear something? " he asked her.
She nodded uncertainly and stuck a thumb into her mouth.
" So you're hungry?"
The little girl nodded.
"Eat everything you want!" The guy said passionately.
"And if someone insults your weight, eat them too!" He exclaimed.
The last line got7 the little girl to giggle and soon, she was full out laughing.
I bit my lip. I've read that somewhere before and it never fails to make me laugh.
Krystal however, couldn't stop laughing.
Luna and Victoria shushed her as best as they could but it was no use. They were smiling themselves.
The guy seemed to finally notice and glanced up. And froze for a moment or two.
He quickly got7 up, patted the girls head gently and was about to leave but the girl grabbed his sleeve.
"Ahjussi, what's your name?"
The guy looked nervous.
"It's..um...Ben. My name is Ben."
The guy said.
The little girl tilted her head.
"Is that Engrish? " She asked.
He nodded. She giggled.
"Mian. But I have to go kid." He said gruffly.
The little girl looked so sad.
"My name's Lila." She whispered.
"Bye bye Ben Ahjussi. "
He patted her head again and walked over to his friend. I couldn't see his friend's face as their back was turned but I could tell that they had blonde hair.
Don't judge, they have a hood on.
Ben whispered something into his ear and they left quickly. But not quick enough.
Krystal chased after the two for some reason.
We followed her and caught up pretty quickly until we were right behind the pair.
"Unnie!" She yelled.
Unnie? Where?
Ben's friend turned around.
"Amber?" Victoria exclaimed.
I looked at Ben and everything clicked.
"Guys, we should get to a more private place. We don't want anyone to find out that we're with The Kris from Exo."
