Siwon’s POV~

Banging. Why is there banging on the door? Argh. Why is it so early?! -__-

“Somebody, go answer the door!” I mumbled, my eyes still closed.

I heard someone shuffling to the door and a moment later, lights flooded the dark room, burning my eyes even though I had them closed.

“Argh!” I jumped, falling out of bed and landing on the floor with a thud. I opened my eyes to see Amanda standing there, her eyes wide with fear, her baby on her hip. “Amanda? What’s wrong?”

The other guys that I was rooming with—Zhou Mi, Henry, Heechul, Donghae, and Leeteuk—came up to her, identical expressions of worry on their faces.

“Where’s Alex and Uki?” she asked us.

I gave her a look. “What do you mean where’s Alex and Uki?” I asked her slowly.

“I thought they might have been staying with you guys for the night, but they’re not here either?! Where are they?!” she screamed at us, tears pooling in her eyes.

I stood up and put my hands on her shoulders, staring down into her worried chocolate eyes. “Amanda, calm down and tell us what happened. What. Do. You. Mean. Where are they?”

Her eyes flickered to all of us, the bruises on her face somehow magnifying the scared look in her eyes. “You mean you really don’t know?”

“Amanda, what’s going on?! Where are they?!” Donghae asked, a scared look in his eyes.

She let out a little whimper, bouncing Siwon up and down slightly—weird that her baby was named after me, but totally sweet! ^^—on her hip. “Y-you mean…You really don’t know where they are?”

“Amanda! Tell us what’s going on, damn it!” Donghae cursed, his eyes firing up again.

Her lower lip quivered as she said slowly, “They never came back last night.”

~~~~

I was pacing around the room agitatedly, Donghae also pacing, going opposite directions as me. All the guys were sitting around in our hotel room’s living room, somber looks on their faces, while Yesung was mindlessly playing with Siwon, Amanda sitting close by. Where could they be? I know Uki was rebellious and all, but she’d usually always tell me where she was and when she’d be coming back! This wasn’t like Uki! I looked at Donghae, who looked like he was in a state crossed between anger and depressiom. Poor him. My little sister and best friend was at stake. His little sister and girlfriend were at stake. Ugh. Where are they?!

“I understand,” I heard manager hyung’s voice say sadly from somewhere in the depths of the bedroom. “Okay, thank you.”

We all looked up at him when he walked out to us, hopeful looks on our faces, but his grim expression quickly dashed any glimmer of hope we had.

“Well? What’d they say?” Heechul asked since nobody would say anything.

Manager hyung let out a sigh and raked his hand through his salt and pepper hair. “They said that they’re filing the missing persons claim now, but it’ll probably take some time before they find anything since none of us even know where they went last night. God, I really hope they’re okay.”

Donghae let out a frustrated sigh and threw himself to the couch, burying his face in his hands. I knew he was going to cry soon. I sat down next to him and put my arm around his shoulders, everyone coming over to us and putting their arms around us in support. Next thing I knew, both Donghae and I began sobbing uncontrollably. My poor sister! Uki, where are you?! Alex, are you okay?! Uki, Alex, come back to us safely, please!
