NARRATOR

The younger Wu walked aimlessly on the lobby of Guangzhou Airport, looking around. She was letting the thought sink in to her mind. She’s back, not to stay, but to think.

Without anything else on her mind but Baekhyun, she rode a taxi cab going somewhere.

The taxi cab stopped in front of a big mansion, and you stepped out. The guards recognized you and quickly let you in.

“Young Miss Wu, you’re here.” The butler gasped as you entered. You gave him a small nod. “Ni hao, Butler Xia. Nice to see you. Is he home?”

The butler shook his head with a knowing smile. “No.”

“Of course he’s out at this time.” You muttered. “I’ll wait in his room.”

Butler Xia nodded. “Do you want something to eat, Young Miss?”

“I’m fine.” You smiled, before heading up the stairs with lifeless strides.

You rolled on the bed, wearing oversized Hanes shirt and boxer shorts you just snagged out the closet. Burying your face on the comforter, you lightly screamed.

“Why are you so weak, Wu An Ran?!” You hissed, lightly hitting your head with your fist.

The door was yanked opened when the clocked ticked 2:00 am.

“I go home and there’s a woman on my bed, wearing my shirt and boxers? Priceless.”

You grinned, jumping off the bed in an instant. “Jiji!” You giggled, letting happiness go to your system for a moment.

The sight of the man brought a smile to your lips. Byunghyun was your childhood friend, and so as this man. He’s Korean, and yet he moved to China because of their business venturing to the Chinese Market. As children, the three of you were a trio. If Byunghyun is a player, then this guy is definitely worse.

 The man chuckled as he enveloped you in his arms, lifting you up from the floor. “You still call me that, eh? Nothing changed.” He smirked, lightly hitting your arm.

You laughed knowingly. “Many things changed, Chunji.”

At that very moment, Baekhyun landed safely from Korea. He sighed, looking at the Chinese signs surrounding him.

“Where have you gone to?” He muttered, walking off to the nearest exit he could find.

“So tell me, what brought you here?” Chunji said as he yanked his blazer off. You sighed. “I have nowhere to go to.”

He chuckled. “You? The Wu’s have three mansions and multiple condo units here in China alone, and you say you have nowhere to go to?”

You shrugged. “I’m staying here, Ji.”

He plopped beside you. “Like I have a choice.” He muttered.

Minutes passed and the two of you bickered and bickered. Little did you know, Chunji already knew it. From the moment he saw you, it already dawned on him. He’s the best friend, of course. Just like Byunghyun, he would always know.

You giggled, animatedly telling him about your trip to the resort in Korea.

“And then, Kris ge was smiling a lot that day! You really won’t believe it!” You widened your eyes for emphasis. Chunji nodded while smiling. He looked directly on your eyes and he saw it. The glint of pain.

“What really happened, Hee?” He asked, his face becoming serious so as his tone. You looked back at him, finding another way to divert the conversation.

“What really happened? We went to the resort and—“

Chunji rolled his eyes at your lame attempt and silenced you with his index finger.

“You can’t lie to me, Wu An Ran.”

Sadness went up to you again. Or maybe it didn’t really go away, it was always there, even if you tried so hard to forget about it. “I… I’m tired, Ji.”

Chunji pursed his lips. “Is this about your boyfriend? That… Baekhyun guy?”

Your head snapped up with the name’s mention. “You..?”

“I have my sources. I’m the bestfriend.” He lightly tapped your cheek. You twitched your lip in response. “You and Byunghyun Oppa, really.”

“You’re our only girl.” He winked, trying to lift the mood up. “I won’t tire you. Go to bed, we’ll go out tomorrow.” He smiled as he flicked your forehead goodnight.

YOUR POV

China’s great. I missed the busy people, the different kind of aura and the business feel of the city. But even though I try so hard, I couldn’t help but see Korea in every aspect. Or more like… see Baekhyun Oppa in everything.

“Just some time..” I muttered, letting the drowsiness take over my system.

NARRATOR

Baekhyun huffed as he threw his duffel bag on the bed. The suite he got was spacious, and it provided a full view of Guangzhou. With a heavy heart, he pressed his palms on the glass wall and stared at the city. He scanned every building, and a smile crept up his lips.

“I know you’re there somewhere.” He whispered, his breath forming moist on the glass.

The next morning, you woke up with the comforter swiftly pulled away from you, freezing you to death.

“What the hell?” You muttered, rubbing your eyes. Chunji smirked, looking at your stressed state.

“I told you we’re going out. I can’t tolerate sleepyheads.”

“Well, I can’t tolerate your schemes too.” You replied, yawning.

“Too bad you’re in my territory.”

Kris sighed as he heard their Butler’s report. He raked his hair with his long slender fingers.

“She didn’t come home. I think she’s with Chunji.” He said. The boys’ eyebrows furrowed with the name, except for Xiumin, Chen and Luhan who knew him too well.

“Who’s that?” Chanyeol asked.

“Chunji? Sounds… Korean.” Sehun added.

“New rival?” Kai snickered.

Kris rolled his eyes at his friends. “Childhood friends. Meimei, Byunghyun and Chunji.”

“Well at least we know she’s safe there.” D.O commented, nodding.

“I hope Baekhyun meets her immediately. They need to talk.” Luhan sighed, shoulders deflated. Kris shrugged. “I think my sister just needs time to think.”

“There’s nothing to think about. Yura’s lying.” Xiumin protested.

“Minhee doesn’t know that.” Chen responded.

“This is stupid and shameful to admit. But it’s the Wu’s weakness.” Kris muttered, closing his eyes as he tapped his foot on the carpeted floor.

“What?” Suho asked.

Chanyeol nodded as he got Kris’ point. “Handling emotions.”
