Continuation....

At one of JP Owen’s headquarters…

 Owen calls on Kangin, his trusted Executive Assistant, announcing his grandson’s arrival…

Owen:             Kangin the visitors will be coming earlier than Bummie. Please arrange my grandson’s
                       arrival in less than an hour, alert our employees as well.

                      Kangin:            Yes, Sir.

Kangin arranges and informs all employees as regards the visitors and Bummie’s arrival. As it is happening, Owen’s employees are eagerly excited and anticipating Owen’s grandson’s arrival as this is the first time they will meet Kibum.

“Hey, have you heard – Mr. Owen’s grandson, Kibum will come here to represent him – funny, we have not seen Mr. Owen’s – good thing they are not selfish in publicly exposing his grandson.”

“Yeah, I believe – it is Kibum’s choice to be known despite in a restricted manner however it is still good – we can have a glimpse of Mr. Owen’s grandson. I heard from other offices that Kibum is so beautifully handsome”

“Gosh, I heard that boy is extremely brilliant like his mom, Ms. Jessica.”

“Man, I could not believe how enormously taxing for a young boy to handle quarter of Mr. Owen’s businesses”

“Yes, I agree – as Ms. Jessica is handling mostly of Mr. Owen’s businesses; the latter decided to give management to at least 25% of his businesses to Kibum – what a brilliant kid – I wonder how old is he?”

“I really don’t care what he does – I just want to have a peek of Mr. Owen grandson”

True to the schedule, the visitors arrive in less than an hour – welcomed by Kangin and guided them through the main conference room.

Fifteen minutes before Kibum’s arrival, the office work has put to a temporary halt as requested by the Company President to welcome Kim Kibum's arrival.

In a matter of minute; Kibum arrives leading everyone in frenzy – all wanting to take a peek of Mr. Owen’s grandson. At the same time, Owen – who is watching the whole scene via TV monitors inside the room adjacent to the conference room, says;

“Aahhh Bummie has the same captivating appearance like his Mom – so elegantly beautiful but mysterious – this is the reason why, I don’t agree having him exposed. It would always turn out like this, chaotic excitement – I hope he can cope up with it…”

As Kibum and Taeyang enter the office lobby – firstly received by Kangin and next by the company president and the visitors - surprised to see the employees lined up. Kibum smiles and recognizes each and everyone’s effort of welcoming him.

While walking Taeyang could not resist saying to himself,

“Quaintness as it seems, he’s been thrown into learning and accepting things, get acquainted by arguing adults, adapting to various human interactions – at such an early age to become a good leader. Although he makes an adult face which is remarkably admirable however it is still so pitiful – such a remarkably strong fifteen year-old.”

 And so the murmurs start…

“He really looks very handsome”

 “Oh my goodness – he is so clearly beautiful, much more than his mother”

 “Oh yeah, who would not be with very gorgeous parents – I mean, look at him – a mix of every good qualities his parents possess”

 The meeting has quickly ended and Kibum proceeds where his grandfather is at. As he opens the door of his grandfather’s secret office, he is greeted by a …whining grandpa in a Japanese outfit…

Owen:             Bumbum…oh my dear – I miss you so much… (hugs and kisses Kibum)

 Kibum:           (breathes heavily to sigh lengthily) oohh seriously… Papa, you look like an ornamented 
                       geisha with that outfit…

 Owen:             (pouting) oh so rude my Bummie (looking at his outfit) this is a detailed exquisite
                        Japanese Kimono outfit dress but you look good yourself – very stylish…(smiling happily)
                        Good thing you are not wearing that tiresome lame tux - I am impressed as well as the
                        result of your meeting.

 Kibum:             (smiles and wondered) Thanks Papa but it wasn’t such a tedious meeting that even the
                         president can handle it – I don’t know why you have to let me attend the meeting?

 Owen:             (shaking his head) Bummie, ahhh forget that – let’s have dinner tonight…

 Kibum:             (confused) hmmm… I think I know the reason. Dinner? Papa – I am so sorry – I made a
                         prior arrangement to be with the Choi Family tonight and tomorrow. You could have told
                         me at the earliest time but lunch would be fine…

 Owen:             (pouting again) hhmmpphh…. You barely have time to share with your handsome Papa
                        but (squeals and hugs Kibum) LUNCH IS FINE… (calls the amused Kangin) Kangin, ready
                        everything, ok…

                       Kangin:            Yes sir!

                       Kibum:             Mr. Taeyang, you may go with Mr. Kangin for an exercise (smiling)

                      Taeyang:         Yes sir Kibum…

 So lunch was spent happily as expected and now Kibum and Taeyang are heading back at the Manor for a rest… while inside the helicopter, Kibum calls Minho for the time of his visit…

At the Choi’s Mansion

Minho:             Bye Bummie…see you soon… Mom, Dad, Taemin! It is confirmed Bummie will come later
                        this afternoon…

 Sooyoung:       (excited) Really…wow – first time...

 Leeteuk:          (thrilled too) Sounds good – I guess we need to create a good impression, don’t you think
                         son?

 Taemin:           (shakes his head) Mom and Dad – you are wrong about Bummie. He is not the flashy
                         type. He is so down to earth… (beaming widely) ahh this is good…(looking at
                         Minho) Is he going to sleep over?

 Minho:             (surprised) Oh yeah – I forgot – after our fireworks, he is going to stay for the night…

 Sooyoung:       (in awe) Oh… lovely… so where do you plan to hold your fireworks?

 Minho:             Up at this Parkland’s hill – it is a good place to hold fireworks – Taemin and I originally
                         decided to hold it in a beach but it would require long travel so we ended up agreeing on a
                         much nearer and also not to be ignored hill this place has.

 Taemin:           (nodding) yap!

 Leeteuk:          (in an intriguing face) Can we come along?

 Minho:             (surprised by his Dad’s interest) Sure Dad, why not? Kibum would be happy…By the way,
                         don’t worry about the fireworks – Kibum said, he will handle the buying…

 Sooyoung:       Sounds fun…yes! But wait what food do we need to prepare?

 Taemin:           (puffs) oh my… we forgot to ask. Minho-hyung what food does he like to eat…?

 Minho:             I honestly do not know – perhaps we can just wait until he comes so we can ask him.

 Sooyoung:       (grins) yeah, I agree… so what do we need to do now?

 Leeteuk:          I guess wait (smirks lightly)…
