Irene and Seulgi have lunch together at home and since Irene stay with her, almost every day Seulgi will have lunch at home unless she have really urgent work to do
"Seul, are you busy this evening?" Irene ask after finish her food
"No, my schedule not pack today"
"Can you go home early? I want to go to supermarket, our fridge almost run out of stock"
"Okay, no problem but if you want you can go with me after this and after I done with my work, we can go straight to the market"
"Is it okay if I go to your office?"
"Of course it's not a problem"
"Okay" Irene grin excitedly
"We will go after you finish cleaning"
Both of them arrive at office and Irene excited since its first time she come to office with Seulgi
"Let's go" Seulgi turn off the engine then they walk inside the building
"Seulgi, where is Wendy's office?" Irene ask
"Wendy is at level 6. You want to meet her?"
"I worry if we disturb her working" Irene giggled
"It's okay, just few minutes is fine. I don't mind, we will stop by her office later"
"Alright" Irene can't wait to see her best friend new workplace and she knew Wendy enjoy working there "I want to buy something for her. Can we go to café?"
"Of course, let's go" they walk to the cafe
They ride the elevator to level 6 to Wendy office "Seungwan is really happy since start working" Irene said
"Glad to hear that and I'm happy when my staffs have good relationship with each other"
"We arrive" Seulgi announce and she walk out first with Irene behind
The staffs are busy doing their work and some of them gather for discussion
"Let's find Wendy" Seulgi said
"Seul, who is their boss here?" Irene greet the staff with wide smile and they smile back to her
"The boss here is Hyoyeon, there is her office" Seulgi pointed at the door that showing "Kim Hyoyeon"
"I see"
"That is Wendy" they walk slowly to Wendy place
Wendy really into her work and she don't notice someone in front of her until Irene fake her cough. Her eyes widened when she saw Irene and Seulgi standing there showing toothy smile. She quickly stands up and bows her head
"Good afternoon Ms. Kang"
"Good afternoon"
"Unnie, what are you doing here?" Wendy asking Irene
"I come to visit you"
"I thought you come here to work with us" Wendy chuckle
"Ms. Kang not accept me as her staff" they laughed at Irene joke
"She have special task to do" Seulgi added. The other staffs assume that the girl beside her must be someone special because she never comes with other girl except her secretary
"Here we buy drink for you" Irene gives the plastic cup to Wendy "Did you have lunch already?"
"Yes, I eat at the café with Yul unnie and Sooyoung unnie"
"Good, don't skip lunch"
"Heard that Wendy, your mom said don't skip lunch" Seulgi teasing Irene
"Yes mom" Wendy play along with Seulgi who rubbing her arm because of Irene pinched "Anyway, thanks for this unnie"
"Say thanks to Ms. Kang because she pay it"
"Thanks Ms. Kang"
"No problem"
"We got to go now, work well" Irene waving her hand
"Okay unnie"
Both of them leave and this time to go to Seulgi office level. The place is more luxury than the other level and the view is really awesome
"This is Taeyeon unnie office. She is the president of the company" Seulgi said while they stop in front of the door that have Taeyeon name 'President Kim Taeyeon"
"Okay, whose desk is this?" Irene pointed at the empty desk in front of Taeyeon office
"This is Seohyun unnie desk. She is Taeyeon unnie's secretary. Maybe they have meeting that why no one here" Seulgi said.
After that, they go to Seulgi office and from far Irene can see Krystal busy typing something on her PC
"Good afternoon Ms. Kang" Krystal bow
"Good afternoon"
"Good afternoon Irene"
"Good afternoon Ms. Jung" Irene said
"I don't have any appointment or meeting after this right?" Seulgi ask Krystal
"Yes, you're free this afternoon"
"Okay, I will go back early today so just keep me updated if there is something important"
"Alright"
Seulgi open her office door and happily welcome Irene inside
"Welcome to my office" Seulgi said
"Your office so big"
"You like it?"
"Yes" Irene smile
"Have a sit"
Seulgi noticed that Irene staring at the big picture frame at the wall and he smile "That is my family photo"
"You have 2 brothers. I thought you're only child"
"I'm only daughter in my family"
"My older brother is Kang Haneul and younger brother is Kang Daniel"
"Haneul, Seulgi and Daniel. Nice name" Irene jokingly said
"My mom and dad creative in choosing the name" Seulgi laughing "I want to finish my work for a while, you sit here, alright?"
"Okay"
Seulgi took sit on her chair while Irene occupies herself with her phone. Few minutes later, she gets boring and starts to walk around
"Seul, why did you don't have this picture at home?" Irene pointed at one of Seulgi picture frame on the cabinet beside her desk
"Which one?"
"This one"
"I took it from home because I don't know where to put it"
"Can we take it back home?"
"You want that picture?"
"Yes, you really look like human bear here. Very cute" Irene teased
Seulgi quite shocked by the comment but she stay cool "I can take new cutest photos for you"
"No, I want this one. You photo filled half of my phone gallery already but I want this one" Irene showing puppy eyes
"Okay, you can take it back. Don't forget to take me too" Seulgi grin playfully
"Of course I will take you back, who will drive me home if you stay here" Irene put the picture frame carefully inside her handbag
"I mean take me anywhere you go"
"I never left you behind unless you go out to work" Irene sit on the chair across to Seulgi while staring at her doing his work
"Okay, you got your license already, isn't it?" Seulgi smirk
"Yes, it was out last week"
"Then you will drive for me later, I will be your passenger"
Irene whining "Bear, I still scare to drive at town, I will drive for you if we're at our neighborhood like when we visit the girls, okay?" she try to make a deal
"No"
"Seulgi, please"
"No, you will drive"
Irene pouts "What if we crash?"
"I know it won't happen"
"What if it happens?"
"Then we will die together" Seulgi laughed heartily
"Seul, pleaseeeee"
"No"
"You so bad" Irene sighs
"Okay, I'm done" Seulgi closes the file and fixed her jacket "Shall we go now?"
"Okay" Irene answer lazily
"Aigooo, don't sulk. We'll arrive safely later, trust me" Seulgi chuckled seeing Irene face looked lifeless "Come on" she pulled Irene on her hand as they walk to the door and let it go as the door open
"Soojung, we will leave now. I finished checking this document" Seulgi give the file to Krystal
"Okay, see you tomorrow"
"Alright"
"Bye Soojung" Irene waving at Krystal
"Bye, have fun" Krystal wave back happily
"Okay"
When they arrive at the parking lot, Seulgi unlocked the car and entered the passenger seat before Irene
Irene grunt and walk to driver sit "Here" Seulgi give the key to Irene
"You such a bully"
"I'm not bullying you; this is what we call test driving skill"
"I passed my driving test already" Irene maneuvered the car carefully and leaved the building
"That's why I ask you to drive" Seulgi laughed
"Okay, you win" Irene give in and she know she can't beat Seulgi in making fun of people
"See, we still safe and sound, right?" Seulgi pats Irene shoulder playfully
Irene smile widely "I'm a safe driver"
"Good" Seulgi clapped her hand "Hyun, what car do you want?"
Irene quickly looked at Seulgi "Car?" she frowned
"Yes, we will purchase car for you"
"Oh, I don't know which one but no need to buy luxury car like yours"
"Aigooo, how did you know that I will choose the luxury brand?"
"I guess I know your preference already" Irene shrugged her shoulder
"So tell me what brand you want?"
"Just choose anything that you think suitable with me. I want to test you now, either you know what good for me or not" Irene smirk
"Aigooo, karma happen so fast" both of them chuckle
"Yeah, you choose anything. I don't mind. I know if I choose the regular brand, you will not agree so you do it for me"
"Alright ma'am"
They arrived at the mall and it's quite hard to find a parking lot. Luckily they get the empty spot not far from the entrance
"Aigoo, why suddenly lot of people now?" Seulgi complain when the mall is strangely pack
"Now is school holiday so parents take their kids out" Irene said while looking at the kids playing around
"No wonder there are lot of people"
They go to first floor and it also packs like the ground floor "Hyun, shall we hold hand?"
"Why?"
"I worry if you lost"
"Okay" Irene extends her hand and Seulgi holds it. Their hand fit with each other and they walk comfortably "Bear, where are we going?"
"Surprise" Seulgi wink
"You're full of surprise"
"I like giving lot of surprises for you"
They enter the jeweler and Irene wondering what are they doing in that shop "Hello Ms. Kang, welcome to our shop" the male sales assistant greet them with smile and friendly manner
"Hello" Seulgi also greet the guy like she know him
"What can I help you Ms. Kang?"
Seulgi smile happily "I want to buy ring for this beautiful girl here"
"Sure, this way ma'am" the guy lead them to the other side
"Bear, what are you saying just now?" Irene ask in low voice
"I want to buy ring for you or whatever you want. Just buy anything, necklace or bracelet or ring or earring"
"It's okay bear, I don't need that" Irene shake Seulgi hand
Seulgi sigh "I never buy something for you since we're together and this is just small thing. Don't worry, it won't waste my money"
"Okay, I will accept with condition"
"What is it?"
"You must buy the same ring too"
"Really? Is it like couple ring?" Seulgi face glowing
"Why? You don't like it?" Irene glare playfully
"I love it"
"Good"
"If you say so, we will buy couple stuff from now on"
"Suit yourself"
"Let's go, she waits for us already" they walk again to the guy place
"Here is it sir" the guy said
"Which one you want?" both of them looking at the various type of rings
"Do you have couple ring?" Irene asked
"Yes, I will get it for you" the sales guy said then few minutes later he come back with couple ring collections "Here is it ma'am"
"Seul, which one you like?"
"You choose for us. I'm suck at choosing this stuff" said Seulgi
"Okay then" Irene doesn't know which one to choose. All of it caught her attention and finally she choose the simple silver ring for them "I want this one"
"Okay, both of you try this size first. If it not fit, I will find another size"
"Okay" both of them proceeds to try their ring and it fit well on their finger
"We choose this" Irene said
"Okay ma'am"
They make payment at the counter then both leave the shop happily
"Bear, thanks for this"
"You're welcome" Seulgi feel butterflies in her stomach every time Irene smiles or showing affection towards her
............
Irene bring 2 mugs of hot chocolate to the rooftop where Seulgi lounge and now she also love to spend time there especially at night
"Seul, here is your drink" she put the mug on the table between their chair
"Thanks"
"You looked like thinking of something serious. Is there something bothering you?" Irene leans comfortably on her chair
"I just reminisce the time since we meet each other until now" Seulgi said while stare at the sky that full with stars
"Are you happy with my presence?"
"I'm never feel this happiness before I know you and your presence make my life beautiful every day. You fill the empty spot in my heart"
"I never imagine that I will close to someone like you. It feels like dream comes true"
"It takes years for me to finally found someone who I really like and want to spend rest of my life with" Seulgi said lovingly
"Do you ever have special relationship before this?" Irene looked at Seulgi side profile that always melts her heart
"Last time I'm in relationship is when I'm at college then when I start working, we breakup and never meet again after that. I'm getting busy with company and I heard that she's married with 2 kids"
"Why you don't find someone again after that?"
"My life is filled with work before you come. Since I take over the company, my days only spend at office. Sometimes no rest on weekend, I just come home to sleep. I rarely spend time at home like now"
"You're a hardworking boss" Irene said
"I want the best for my company. Dad trust me to take care of it in really young age so I want to prove to him that I can make him proud"
"What about your brothers?"
Seulgi chuckles "The jeweler where we bought our rings belongs to Haneul unnie. His company based at New York that's why you never see him around"
"What about your younger brother?"
"Daniel started his own business last year and still soaring upwards now. Since we start our own carrier, we never spend time like before unless we meet at mansion and it also just once or twice a year"
"You must be missed them so much, right?" Irene feels sorry at Seulgi
"Yes but we still keep-in-touch with each other. I showed your picture to them and they really like you, they said you're pretty. They can't wait to meet you. Right now everyone still scattered all around the world so I can't bring you to meet them"
"It's okay, I can wait" Irene suddenly nervous
"Now tell me something about you" Seulgi said
"Which one you want to know? I don't really have interesting story"
"Love life or family or anything"
"Love life first"
"Okay" Seulgi nods her head vigorously
"I start involve in relationship when I still at high school and I'm quite famous back then" both of them chuckle when Irene praise herself "Then my last relationship is last year. We break up because he's cheating then we have big fight"
"Poor thing"
"That's all about love life. I told you mine is not interesting"
"Now tell about your family"
"Give me tissue first" Irene said
"Here" Seulgi absentmindedly gives the tissue box to Irene
"Umma leaved me forever when I'm still in really young age and appa raised me alone. He worked hard for both of us. Thankfully that he got decent job so we're not having hard time. He never married after umma dead because he really loves umma. When I am 22 years old, appa diagnose with leukemia and he can't work anymore. I stop going to college because I need to work for us. His saving not enough to support us and thankful the company help him in his medical fee. Few months later, appa also leaving me like umma did. That's when I start my alone journey until I meet the girls. They support me when I'm having hard time after appa dead and we stick together until today. They are my family that's why I can't leave them" Irene wiping her tears with tissue
Now Seulgi understands why Irene asked for tissue and her life really sad. She takes a sit beside Irene and hugged her tightly
"Now you don't have to sad anymore. I always here for you and I will never leave you. I will make you happy at any cost. Your parents must be happy when they see you smile every day" Seulgi cooed while stroking Irene hair softly
"Thanks for taking care of me"
"I will keep you safe and I promise I won't abandon your sisters. I will take care of them like my own sisters"
"Thanks for everything you did to us"
"My pleasure" Seulgi release Irene from the hug "Sorry for asking about your family"
"It's okay, I'm over it now and I know my parents watching me from heaven now" Irene smile while staring at the sky "I just emotional because when I have my happy moments, both of them are not around"
"Don't cry anymore" Seulgi wiped Irene tears. They spend time at the rooftop until late at night
..........................
Taeyeon and Krystal have their weekend date at the mall because Krystal dragged Taeyeon to accompany her shopping
"Honey, is it still long?" Taeyeon sigh as she waiting for Krystal since 10 minutes ago
"Relax honey, I still choosing my blouse" Krystal said while busy choosing her outfit
"Don't you have lot of blouse already and you take over half of my wardrobe"
Krystal giggles "I used all of them few times already and I want to try new design too. I'm boring wearing the same clothes for months"
"We just bought new clothes like few weeks ago yet you said few months" Taeyeon rolled her eyes
"I have to look good every day, you know?"
"Hmm, okay"
"You don't have to complain every time I shop for my stuff, I do it to look good for you too" Krystal said in low voice
"You always look good even just wearing pajama"
"I need to maintain it so that you always want to come back to me wherever you go"
"Jung always right" Taeyeon sighs heavily and she know she can't defeat Krystal in something like that
"I also do my best to make you look good every day. You see how different you dress up before I take care of you and since I stay with you. Don't you looked handsome every day even just go to our friend house? People even praising you for dress up nicely to office, you should thank me for that" said Krystal
"Yes baby, I know you're devote girlfriend of mine and I'm thankful that I got you" Taeyeon said and it end their little quarrel
"Come on Taengoo" they go to the counter to pay for Krystal outfit
"How much is it?" Taeyeon ask because she want to pay it
"It's okay, I will pay" Krystal said and give her credit card to the cashier
"Honey, where are we going now?" Taeyeon holding the bag that will with the outfit
"Let's go to make-up store" Krystal said
"Here we go again"
"Sorry my love today is my shopping day" Krystal giggle and wrapped her arm playfully around Taeyeon shoulder
"Honey, isn't it Yul unnie?" Taeyeon stop her pace and pointed at the café entrance at the corner of the mall
Krystal is tip-toeing to look at the direction "Who with her?"
"That girl looked like Joy"
"Joy as in Park Sooyoung" Krystal eyes widened
"Yes, Park Sooyoung. Irene best friend" Taeyeon said
"Are they going out?"
"I think so. Yul never go out with any girls since 3 years ago besides our friends"
Krystal and Taeyeon looking at each other "It could be they are going out secretly"
"Yul interest is no joke. She prefer younger girl now" Taeyeon comment
"Thought she still want to stay single for few more years" Krystal added
"I will ask her about this" Taeyeon smirk
"Yeah" they laughed again "Let's go to my make-up shop"
"Okay"
............
"Joy-ah, I saw you at the mall with someone last weekend" Krystal smile teasingly. She's hangout with the girls at their house and Irene also join them
Joy cough suddenly "Aigooo, busted"
"Wow unnie, are you seeing someone?" Yerim squeal excitedly
"Someone will have boyfriend soon" Irene teasing her friend who blushing furiously
"Aigooo Sooyoung-ah, you don't have to shy. We're happy if you date him" Krystal said
"We're not dating unnie, just going out together" Joy blushing hard
"Then soon will dating too"
"Unnie, who is that man?" Yerim eager to know
"Kwon Yuri"
"Unnieeeee~" Joy cover her face and hide behind Krystal
"Wow, you going out with Yul unnie?" everyone laughed excitedly
"She ask me out few weeks ago and we meet outside around 3 times already"
"No wonder you always with your phone lately" Wendy poke Joy shoulder playfully
"You're lucky if you date her Joy-ah. Yul is good woman and will make you laugh every day. When she courts you, he will never see other girl after that. You can mark my word" Krystal praising Yuri
"Yul unnie is really funny" said Irene
"When it comes to fooling around, make fun or teasing people it will be Yul unnie, Taeyeon, Hyoyeon unnie, Seulgi and Sooyoung unnie. They are all time champion. One day you all will see they will turn to be a clown"
"They love to tease me" said Yerim
"That is because you're the youngest one here and those people spoil you so much. Taeyeon said they see you as a kid and that bunch of dorks love kids so much. They used to play with random kids at the playground and really embarrassing when they are noisy than the kids" everyone laughed when Krystal tell their story
"They really playful" Wendy said
"It's not them if they are not playing around"
"Talking about unnie, where is Seulgi unnie and Taeyeon unnie? Usually they will come together with both of you" said Wendy
Irene and Krystal looked at each other and sigh "I told Seulgi that I want to visit you all and she gave car key to me. She asked me to drive myself here because she wanted to go out with Taeyeon unnie. She said Taeyeon unnie will pick her at home"
"Same with Taeyeon but not only both of them will hangout. Yul unnie, Sooyoung unnie and Hyoyeon unnie also join them" said Krystal
Meanwhile at the café, Seulgi and her best friends enjoy drinking beer
"Guys, finally I ask Joy out few weeks ago and we met few times already" Yuri announce happily
"Congratulations dude, finally you ask her out" Hyoyeon pat Yuri shoulder
"I saw you last weekend when I'm shopping with Soojung"
"Soojung also saw them?" Seulgi ask
Taeyeon nods her head "Yes but I pretend that I am clueless" her comment make everyone burst out their laughter
"You're good at keeping secret" Sooyoung said
"Any secret that I know are safe and sound but I never keep secret from Krystal. She will kill me if she finds out that I hide something from her"
"That is your pathetic side" said Yuri
"You will experience it too" Taeyeon punch Yuri shoulder lightly "And you too Seulgi"
"I think I start to enter that phase already" Seulgi said and they laughed again
Seulgi comes home around 6:30 PM. She entered the house and found Irene cooking at the kitchen
"Hi Hyun"
"Welcome home" Irene turn around and Seulgi stand in front of her
"What you cooked today?"
"I cooked what you request yesterday"
"Okay, I go upstairs to take bath" Seulgi turned to leave but Irene stop her
"Seulgi, wait"
"Yes?"
"Come closer"
"Okay" they really close to each other
"Say something" Irene command
"What?" Seulgi furrowed her eyebrows
"You smell like alcohol. Are you drinking earlier?" Irene interrogate her
"Yes, just few cans"
"Are you drunk?"
"No, I'm fine"
"Your alcohol tolerance is not good, right?" Irene glare at Seulgi
"Yes"
"Don't drink too much unless you drink here in our house. I don't want you to drive in drunken state"
"Don't worry, I won't drink and drive"
"Make sure you not drinking after this"
"Okay"
"Now go upstairs" Irene said and continues cooking
"Mine is worse than Taeyeon unnie" Seulgi mumble
"I can hear you" Irene said from the kitchen then Seulgi quickly run to the bedroom
.............
It was typical evening when Seulgi return from office and it's weird when she doesn't see Irene around. She know Irene not going out because she always inform him if she go anywhere
"Hyun?" she goes to the kitchen but no one there
Then she goes upstairs to Irene room "Hyun, are you inside?" she knocked the door
"Hyun" still no one answering
She tries to open the door and it was not lock "Hyun" she looked inside and gasped when she saw Irene curled on the bed with her back facing the door. She quickly checking Irene and she sleeping while holding her stomach
"Hyun, are you okay?" she asked worriedly and palm Irene forehead but not hot
"Seul" Irene said weakly "Don't disturb"
"Are you okay? Why do you like this?" Seulgi ignore what Irene just said
"I'm fine. Just don't disturb me" Irene said annoyingly and turned her body to the other side
Seulgi give in "Okay" then she leaved the room
She fished out his phone and make phone call to Wendy
"Hello Wendy" – Seulgi
"Yes Seulgi, what's up?" – Wendy
"I want to ask something" – Seulgi
"Yes, go ahead" – Wendy
"I just get back from office and found Irene in her room. She seemed like in pain or something and her mood also bad. Is something wrong? Did she tell any of you?" – Seulgi
"She's in pain?" – Wendy
"Yes, she holding her stomach and curl on the bed. Don't tell me she have some serious sickness" – Seulgi *Gasped*
"Oh, I think she's on her period now. Usually she will have period pain like cramps also pain at lower half" – Wendy
"Is she always feel pain when period?" – Seulgi
"Yes, she normally has period pain. It just like one or 2 days" – Wendy
"She look hurt so much that I almost give her painkiller. She look so scary" – Seulgi
"Unnie mood swing badly when she is period so you must be careful. Remember this one thing, when she's in pain she need spoiled and lot of attention" – Wendy
"Okay" – Seulgi
"If she doesn't want to eat, don't force her. Sometimes she will lost appetite or vomit. Just prepare soup for her in case she want something" – Wendy
"Okay, thanks for the info. I will call you again if I need help" – Seulgi
"Alright, no problem" – Wendy
That night, Seulgi prepared dinner for herself but she's not in mood to eat. She throws away the leftover and wash dishes. She also prepared soup like Wendy told her in case Irene wants to eat something. After settle with the soup, she goes to Irene room again and she still curled but not bad as before.
She climbed the bed and touch Irene forehead with her palm then tapped her shoulder "Hyun"
Irene opened her eyes slowly "Seul"
"You feel better now?"
"A little bit better than earlier but still numb on my lower half. I'm in period pain now" Irene said
"I know, do you want something to eat? I prepare soup for you"
"No, I don't want to eat anything"
"Okay, if you need anything just call me" Seulgi said as she wanted to leave to her room
"Seulgi" Irene grabbed Seulgi wrist
"Yes"
"Don't go" Irene said weakly
"Okay, I will accompany you here until you sleep" Seulgi said and she remember that Wendy said Irene need attention
"Sleep here beside me" Irene pats the space beside her
Seulgi zone out for few second "Okay" she said and lay beside Irene
They facing each other "Sorry if I make you worry earlier"
"I worry because you suddenly bad mood and scary. I thought you diagnose with serious sickness that I don't know" Seulgi caressed Irene hair softly
Irene chuckle "Sorry for that"
"It's okay"
"Seulgi"
"Yes"
"Hug me" Irene said boldly
"You're serious?"
"Yes, come" Irene reach out her hand
Seulgi move closer to Irene and hug her. Irene nuzzled close to Seulgi neck and found her comfort in her embrace
"Did you eat dinner already?"
"Yes, I eat before I come here"
"Sorry because I can't cook for you today" Irene sound disappointed
"It's okay, I don't mind"
"I will make breakfast for you tomorrow" Irene said
Seulgi rubbed Irene back "If you still hurt, I not go to office tomorrow. I can't leave you here"
"What about your work?"
"Krystal can bring it here for me"
"I feel bad for troubling you"
"I troubling you more than you did to me"
"It's my responsibility, not a trouble" said Irene
Seulgi smile "Same goes to me. Don't wake up early if you still hurt tomorrow, okay?" she touched by Irene care towards him and she's never hesitant to show her caring side. Even in pain, she still worried about Seulgi. It make Seulgi love her more each day but she haven't confess it yet
"Okay then" Irene gives in
"Let sleep, you have to rest"
"Okay, goodnight"
"Goodnight" Seulgi tightened her hug and plant chaste kiss on Irene forehead. It is her first skinship with Irene since they stay together. Meanwhile, Irene smile when she felt Seulgi lips on her forehead then she wrapped her arm around Seulgi torso to hug her back. That night is their first time sleep with each other.
..............
Irene wake up and still in Seulgi embrace, she smile when staring at her peaceful sleeping face. Then she tapped Seulgi cheek softly "Seulgi, wake up"
Seulgi open her eyes slowly "Em?"
"Wake up and get ready to work"
"I don't want to work" Seulgi shook her head
"Seul, I'm fine already so you can let me stay alone here"
"No, I want to have date with you"
"We can go out on weekend"
"I want today, I will tell Krystal that I not coming today"
"Okay"
"I will call her now" Seulgi grabbed her phone from the nightstand
He call Krystal and they listen through loudspeaker "Aigoo, where is this girl? Don't tell me she still sleeping"
"Maybe she busy at kitchen" said Irene then the call was answered by Taeyeon
"Hello!" – Taeyeon
"Hello Taeng unnie, good morning!" – Seulgi
"Morning dude" – Taeyeon
"Where is your girlfriend?" – Seulgi
"She's in the bathroom, taking bath" – Taeyeon
"Surprisingly you're not taking bath together with her" – Seulgi
"We'll late to go to office if we take bath together" – Taeyeon
"It make sense too" – Seulgi
"Yah, are you calling this early just to ask if we're taking bath together?!" – Taeyeon
"No, I want to inform her that I not coming to office today" – Seulgi
"Why? Something wrong somewhere?" – Taeyeon
"I want to have date with Irene" – Seulgi
"Okay, I got it. Enjoy your date. I will inform her later" – Taeyeon
"Alright, thanks unnie" – Seulgi
"No problem, bye dude" – Taeyeon
"Bye" – Seulgi
"Is is okay if you not go to office?" Irene ask
"It's fine"
"What about your meeting or appointment?"
"My secretary can handle it for me. I give her authority to do my work on my behalf and she can make the decision for me too in case I'm not around. She's second important person in the company and her level is higher than Taeyeon unnie"
"No wonder you trust her a lot"
"Yeah, if she's not my secretary, she will be vice president but I choose her to assist me and Sunny unnie sit on that position now since unnie also qualify. Everyone is capable in their own level"
"You're lucky to have them"
"As lucky as I have you" Seulgi wink
"Here we go again" Irene pinch Seulgi tummy
"Hyun"
"What?"
"Can we sleep together after this? I enjoy cuddle with you" Seulgi said shyly
"Why not, I enjoy it too" said Irene
"And I can kiss you too, right?" Seulgi smirk
"Okay, suit yourself"
"Yes!!" Seulgi pump her fist happily
"Are you that happy?"
"Yes, I wait for this moments too long already" Seulgi grinning happily
"Now you finally got the chance" Irene poke Seulgi cheek
"Yes, let sleep again. I still want to hug you"
"I don't want to sleep, I want to take bath"

"Good boy, now I guess you don't want to sleep anymore, right?" Irene smirk
"Yah, is that your trick to make me wake up?"
"Yes!" Irene laughed heartily
"How dare you?"

"I finish early than you and prepare your clothes"
"Thanks" Seulgi put on his clothes
"Why took so long in the bathroom? Usually you won't take that long?"

"Our house" Seulgi smile dorkily

You come to my life bring lot of meaning to me and you're someone that I ask for in my prayer since years ago.

After done choosing what they want, Joy call the waitress

"Is it? I think my face still like before" Irene said
"You looked happier now since you stayed with Seulgi unnie" Joy added
"Unnie also looked healthier now" said Yerim

"That is because you're good at cooking and we missed your cook" Joy said
"I will cook for all of you one day"
"Okay unnie"
Their foods arrive one by one and they start eating
"The foods here so good" Seulgi comments
"Thanks for this, girls" Irene said

When everyone busy eating their food, Yerim saw something at the main entrance
"Unnie, looked behind you" Yerim said to Irene
"What is that?" Irene turned around and her eyes widened when she saw a group of people come with birthday cake
"Happy birthday Irene!" Sunny said happily while holding the cake

"When did you arrived and when you decorate this house? You said you will return tomorrow" Irene throw lot of questions as Seulgi expect
She laughed before answering her "I arrived this evening and after you leave for your birthday dinner, I come to decorate this room with help from unnie"
"So how did they manage to join the dinner and bring the cake?" Irene asked in disbelief
"Everything was planned well and we make it quickly. After that, they go to the restaurant to join you and the girls while I go to buy these" Seulgi explained
"The girls also involve in the plan?"
"Yes, they help to turn your attention"
"Aigooo"
"Who send you here just now?" Irene remembered Seulgi car is at the porch when she arrived
"Taeyeon unnie and Krystal drive me here"
"Aigooo, you guy really something. I can't believe that everyone act perfectly"
"Everyone deserve best actor award" they giggle
"Anyway, thanks for the surprises and this flower" Irene said
"Here is gift from you" Seulgi take the red box and open it. There is a gold necklace inside
"Unnie, it's beautiful" Irene squeal
"You like it?"

..................
One day, Taeyeon and Seulgi return from meeting with their clients and Taeyeon remember something that her mom told her
"Seul, umma telling me something few days after my wedding?" said Taeyeon while drive her car
"What she said?"
"It's about Irene"
Seulgi frown "What's wrong with Irene?"
"Do you remember that I told you about my sister that was adopted by late appa friend?"
"Yes, I remember"
"Umma said her hunch telling something that Irene is familiar to us"
"Seriously unnie?"
"Yes, umma said that to me and Soojung. I talked about this with Soojung and she said motherly instinct is no joke and probably Irene is my long lost sister"
"She used to tell me that her parents died but she never said about adoption"
"Maybe she doesn't know" Taeyeon said "Umma keep staring at her picture and she also showed me her picture when she's still baby. We resemble each other"
"Did umma tell you about her parent name?" Seulgi curious yet excited
"She don't tell me more about them but her father surname is Bae"
Seulgi nods her head slowly "Irene also Bae"
"Umma really hope that she's my biological sister because umma miss her so much"
"Shall we make DNA test? If both of you compatible then you're sibling"
"I don't have problem if you want to do the test but what about Irene? Will she agree?"
"I will discuss this with her"
"Okay"
"If she agrees to do the test then we will make it tomorrow"
"Alright" Taeyeon said excitedly
...........
That night, Seulgi tell Irene about what she discussed with Taeyeon earlier. Irene quite shocked by the news but she not denied anything
"Appa never tell me either I'm adopt or biological daughter but I can't donate my blood to him because we're not compatible" said Irene
"What about other documents or your birth certificate?"
"I never found document about adoption and my birth certificate is I am Bae's daughter"
"It's hard" Seulgi rubbed her chin "You have your picture when you're baby, right?"
"Yes"
"Taeyeon umma said you and Taeyeon unnie resemble each other. She confidently said you're her daughter. Her instinct also can tell"
"I don't know baby" Irene sighs
"Taeyeon agree to do DNA test, do you want? We need it to confirm if both of you are real sibling or not"
"I also agree to do the test"
"Okay, tomorrow we will do the test"
"Alright" Irene said
................
Next day, Irene goes to office with Seulgi to meet Taeyeon
"Unnie, she's agree to do the test" Seulgi said soon as the sit on the couch in Taeyeon office
"Good, umma also ask me to do the test to confirm it. She really excited to wait for the answer" Taeyeon said happily
"Umma surely miss her daughter so much" said Seulgi
"Yeah, you're right" Taeyeon said "Irene, I want to show you a picture of my baby sister and I want you to confirm it"
"Okay unnie"
Taeyeon take out the photo from her wallet and put it on the table. Irene and Seulgi stare at the picture "Cute" Seulgi cackle
"Is that you?" Taeyeon nervously ask
"I have a picture too" Irene said and takes out the picture from her wallet. She put it beside the picture that Taeyeon bought
"Yah, almost same" Seulgi exclaimed
"This one is taken on her first day" Taeyeon said
"Mine is when I'm 6 months old" Irene said
"They really looked alike" Seulgi added
"We're one step closer and I hope the result is positive" Taeyeon said
"Hope it will be our side" Irene smile happily
"Let's go to hospital now" said Seulgi
Taeyeon drive them to the hospital and she really nervous plus excited. Shge's happy if Irene is her sister because she also dreams to meet her sister since years ago even before her father die. They go straight to doctor office to proceed with the test
"Doctor, how long we will wait for the result?" Taeyeon ask
"1 week then we will bring it out"
"Can you make it faster sir?"
"I can but the payment is quite high because we need to rush"
"This is urgent so I want to make it quick. I don't mind how much it cost as long as I can get it soon"
"Okay Ms. Kim, we will make it quick around 3 days. When the result is out, I will call you"
"Okay doctor, thank you very much"
"My pleasure"
They shake hand with the doctor before leave the hospital
.................
Few days later, Taeyeon called Seulgi and Irene to come to her house after she gets the result from hospital
"Unnie, how was it?" Irene nervously ask
"I don't know yet, I haven't open it"
"Both of you should open it together" said Krystal
"Either it positive or not, just make it memorable" Seulgi added
"Alright, we will open this together. Come sit here" Taeyeon pat the empty spot beside her and Irene change her place
Taeyeon open the envelope carefully and take out the document then both of them read it. Wide smile plastered on their face as they looked at each other
"My baby sister" Taeyeon said and they hugged each other tightly
"My big sister" Irene said with teary eyes
"Thanks god" Seulgi and Krystal witness the reunion happily
"You can't imagine how long I wait for this moment. I looked for you all around the country but I never found you anywhere even at Daegu. You hide really well" Taeyeon said
"I really think that I don't have any family members after appa and umma leave me but God prove me wrong" Irene wiped her tears with tissue
"You're not alone anymore. Now you have umma, unnie, oppa, Seulgi and all of us" Krystal rubbed Irene back softly
"Thanks for take care of them for me" Irene hugging Krystal
"Umma will be happy meeting you. She missed you a lot"
"Taeng unnie, when you will bring her to meet umma?" Seulgi ask
"We will go to umma house next weekend because umma at Japan now"
"Okay"
"Unnie, did we have other sibling?"
"We have older brother, Kim Heechul and he's at Japan now. He worked there since few years back. I told him about this and he also excited to know if you're our sisters"
"Heechul oppa is male version of umma" Seulgi remark
"Seul is right, we both looked like appa but he's more to umma. When he meets you one day, I know he will pamper you so much. If we meet you before Seulgi, I think he won't give you permission to marry someone in this age" they laughed at Taeyeon story
"Heechul oppa is umma daughter because he like to do girls work. After he work at Japan, umma quite lonely because no one at home with her" said Krystal
"People used to think that he's girly but he proved that he's a man. He dated Japanese girl, right?" Seulgi giggle
"Yes"
"I just feel sorry at appa because he can't meet his only daughter. His last wish is asking us to look for you" Taeyeon said sadly
"Now you found me so you did it" Irene caressed Taeyeon shoulder
"One day I will bring you to his place"
"Okay unnie"

"I almost thought you can't make it"
"Sorry baby sister. Oppa won't disappoint you"
"I know oppa" Irene giggle happily
"Shall we go now?"
"I guess so"
"Aigooo, I still can't believe that I marrying off my baby sister today. I haven't enjoy myself playing around with you and now you'll be someone wife" Heechul said while they walk to elevator
"You can meet me anytime unnie, don't sad"
"But it can't be same like if you're single and stay with us. You have your commitment too. Thankful that you marry with someone I know and I trust like my own sister. I witness Taeyeon and Seulgi grow up to be a good woman so I'm happy for both of you" Heechul shed tears
