Chapter 22

Friendly Competition

 

 

 

"I've always been concerned for my Noona. She's been so lonely. So, I'm glad she picked you." Ricky said.

"I'm not lonely!"

"You have ME, but that's not enough. I'm going to date one day."

"No you're not." Yoseob, Yojin, and ______ said in unison.

"What?! Why?"

"You're going to stay a kid forever." Yoseob said.

"Hyungnim!~" he whined. "Yojinnie isn't allowed to date either."

"When Yojin Noona finds a Boyfriend, I can date?"

"By then, you'll be forty. Aye, go for it!"

______ giggled a bit.

"Is that your Christmas gift to Uri Changhyunnie? Hs can date when he's forty?"

"Yep."

"______-ah, do you have a shoot today?" Yoseob asked.

"Ani. I'll be free for a while. I do, sometimes, stop by Yojinnie's shoots to monitor things."

"Yah, Kim Yojin, do you think you can manage without her today?"

"WAE?! Are you stealing my Unnie again?"

"Nope, I let YOU borrow her. Now I'm spending time with her since you're busy."

"Aww...Oppa!~"

"Noona, how we expect them to have a date if we keep hovering. If they don't get their one on one date, I may never date until I'm dead. That'll at be age 130."

They walked with Yojin to her photo shoot.

She brought them in.

The photographer spotted ______.

"______-ah, you are scheduled for today."

"Ara, Photographer-nim!" She said with a smiled. "We just came to drop off Yojin."

"I would be fine on my own, Unnie. Right, Oppa?"

"No..." Yoseob said. "It's too far. It's not safe."

"Awww...so protective. How cute!~" ______ giggled.

"______-ah, you work here too?"

"Mhm." ______ nodded. "We have our shoots everywhere though. That's the thing about modeling clothes. We change the environment so that it goes with it."

"We can't wear a bikini out in the snow, Oppa."

Yoseob glared at Yojin.

"You're lucky I haven't been at any of your shoots."

"Unnie is luckier."

"Aah, introductions!!~" ______ squealed wrapping her arms around Ricky. "This is my baby brother."

"Aah, the one you're always talking about!"

"Annyeonghaseyo, I'm Yoo Changhyun!~"

"Good looking kid! He has nice cheekbones. Have you ever considered modeling like your sister?"

"He tried it." ______ told the photographer. "He thought he'd stick to dancing."

"Unnie's parents were into music." Yojin said. She looked over for Yoseob. "Oppa!"

"Huh?"

He was busy looking at old pictures of ______.

"What are you doing? Come over here to meet the photographer, then you can leave."

"Arasseo." Yoseob said, walking back over to them. "Annyeonghaseyo, I'm Yang Yoseob."

"Yojinnie, you two resemble each other quite a bit."

"Arasseo!~" she said cutely. "Yoseob Oppa is my cousin BUT he's like a brother instead. We've always been close."

"Close enough to mess with each other...every two seconds." ______ chimed in. "They're cute cousins. Changhyunnie and I are loving siblings. We don't troll each other so much."

"That's how I show my love." Yojin laughed. "Yah, I introduced you two, didn't I?"

"NO." The couple said in unison.

"What?"

"We met by chance." Yoseob said. "You had nothing to do with it."

"He was so quiet then." ______ shook her head. "He's not anymore. If Yoseob and Changhyunnie are hanging out...it's too loud!!!"

"Hyungnim JJANG!"

"We're going to go outside for some male bonding!" Yoseob said. "I'll let you two finish up."

"Awww...Saranghae Oppa!" Yojin giggled.

"Aye...liar." Yoseob shook his head. "You better behave, Kim Yojin."

"Oppa..." She mumbled.

______ stifled a laughed.

"Aigoo."

"Ricky's infatuation with Oppa will die soon. In you as well."

She patted ______ on the back.

"Nah."

"Uri Oppa is also ______ Unnie's new boyfriend, of three months."

"Yeah and he doesn't enter my house on his own."

"Oppa is a vampire!" Yojin gasped.

"He's been invited in before!"

"Arasseo, Unnie. Uri Oppa is just a gentleman. Plus, he knows that if he hurts you...I'll smother him in his sleep, with his own pillow."

______ sighed.

"You keep telling me that!~" ______ sang. "You love him too much though!~"

"So do you!~" Yojin imitated her tone.

______'s face suddenly turned pink.

"NO! I like him a lot! That's it! I don't LOVE him! YAH!"

"Just messing with you."

 ______ suddenly got quiet.

‘…….’

Meanwhile, the boys were waiting outside.

Yoseob, out of habit, took off his cap.

He started to flip it around, tossing it under his arm. He turned to catch it.

Ricky was mesmerized.

"Hyungnim."

"Ne?" Yoseob replied, still flipping his hat around.

"That is daebak!

How did you do that?"

"Aah, it's a habit, I guess." Yoseob chuckled. "I practiced it a lot and I just started to do it without noticing that

I was."

"Did you make up your own routine?"

Yoseob nodded.

"Pretty much. I was bored and I always used to touch my hat as a nervous habit."

"Can I see it again?"

"Sure. We have time."

Yoseob started from the top of his hat trick.

A random man walked passed, placing money into the hat.

"Uh....A-Ahjussi?" Yoseob chuckled.

He was followed by a few more people.

Ricky and Yoseob looked at each other and started to laugh.

Yoseob ran after them to return the money.

"Am I a beggar? Do I look like a beggar?"

Ricky couldn't breathe.

Just then, _______ got back.

The boys wouldn't stop laughing.

"I think, you two are having way too much fun." She laughed. "What's going on?"

"Hyungnim's hat...kekekekekeke....flipping....kekekekekekeke Ahjussi put money kekekekekeke! BEGGAR!~"

"Aaah, that makes a lot of sense." ______ lied. "I'll just take it as a 'you had to be there' kind of thing."

"We have an inside joke."

"Aigoo!~ You’re both too cute individually, but together...it's an overload." ______ sighed.

“I’m hungry.” Yoseob whined, hearing his stomach growl. “Let’s go eat something.”

“Hyungnim, put your hat in your mouth. See what happens.”

Yoseob grinned and turned to Ricky.

“Random strangers could pay for our meals. Aigoo…I AM a beggar.”

______ just stared at the two.

She was beyond lost.

“Geurae. I’m just going to pretend that I understood you.” She nodded, pulling her jacket tighter around herself. “I’m freezing, there’s a mall with a food court nearby.”

The three headed to an indoor mall to get something to eat.

Then they walked around, looking into random stores.

"______-ah, what are your plans for Christmas?"

______ shrugged.

"I don't know. It's always been just the two of us." She said motioning towards Ricky. "We only have each other."

"Do you.....want to spend Christmas with us?!" Yoseob asked, nervously, shifting his feet.

"Cheongmal?! Noona, can we?"

"Um...you're putting me on the spot." ______ grumbled.

"Yep." both boys nodded in unison.

"Oh god, Yoo Changhyun is a mini Yang Yoseob." she sighed.

"Noona, you’ve been dating Yoseob Hyungnim for a few months."

"She has. You've been keeping track, Kid?"

"Of course." Ricky smiled.

Yoseob smiled back and ruffled his hair.

______ sighed.

'I can't believe these two are ganging up on me.' she glared daggers at them both. 'Is Yang Yoseob  dating ME or my Dongsaeng?'

"What do you say, Noona?"

"You both ."

"So...is that a yes?" Yoseob asked hopefully.

"I think it was!~"

"I guess so." she laughed.

She kissed his nose.

"Well, if Yojinnie was here...it would be three against one."

"Noona, this way, you don't need to stress yourself out! You always do! You're trying to be like Umma and Appa in one. I don't want you to put too much pressure on yourself and then end up getting sick! It'll be fun to spend the holidays with Hyungnim and Yojinnie Noona."

______ sighed.

When she got back home that night, she was thinking hard.

“Am I being too happy?” she asked her parent’s picture. “I don’t want you to think that I’m forgetting you. I still remember you, Umma. I still remember you , Appa. We can still cancel our Christmas plans.”

“WHAT?!” Ricky shouted, walking into the room. “WE CAN’T! Noona, you like Yoseob Hyungnim a lot.  Why are you so worried?! When I was worried about forgetting them, you promised to keep refreshing my memories. Noona, are you worried about something else?”

“Am I moving too fast?”

“Too fast?! NO WAY! You’re moving at the right speed!”

“Yeah..but…we’re celebrating Christmas with Yoseob’s family. That’s a big deal.”

Ricky pouted and crossed his arms.

“Don’t start to freak out now!” he scolded. “Just think of it as being Yojin Noona’s family. It’s true. You wouldn’t be lying to yourself. Just because it’s something different from just us…don’t freak out. Umma and Appa would love Hyungnim as their son-in-law.”

“YAH!!!! What did I say about not wanting to move too fast?!”

“That’s not it, Noona.” Ricky explained sitting next to her. “Noona, you just want to have a guy that won’t disappear from you. Yoseob Hyungnim likes you SO MUCH that he won’t just leave. PLUS, we get along so well…it’s a win for me too!”

“You two already got your inside joke that I don’t get.” ______ smiled.

Ricky grinned and nodded.

The next morning, ______ was awakened by the doorbell going insane.

On top of that, her phone was ringing.

“Aigoo!~”

She jumped out of bed, pulled on her robe, and went to the door.

“UNNIE!~”

“Yojinnie!~” ______ whined. “I just woke up!”

“Oppa told me that you and Changhyunnie agreed to spend Christmas with us!~”

______ closed the door and walked to the kitchen with Yojin.

“I was bullied into it.” She laughed. “Aah, you can stay in my room!~”

They talked a bit and went online, using ______’s computer.

“______ Unnie, what are you going to give Oppa for Christmas?”

“A Keurig?” she joked. “He loves his coffee…and it’s been cold.”

Yojin had a horrified look on her face.

“If you do that, I might die. How about a Starbuck’s gift card?”

______ rolled her eyes.

“Aww…isn’t that romantic?!” she commented sarcastically.

Yojin made a face and went onto her facebook.

“FINE! Decide later!~” she stuck out her tongue. “Unnie, what happened to your facebook?”

“What do you mean? I haven’t had time for that!”

“GO ON!~ I’m curious!~”

Yojin scooted aside so ______ could use half of the chair.

______ scowled and sighed onto her facebook.

“WHOA!~ I didn’t know I could get more than 300 notifications.”

“I’m more amused by the 26 friend requests.” Yojin laughed.

______ was looking through Facebook.

“It’s changed too much, since the last time I used it! What is all this?! Ahn Jaehyo’s birthday is today?”

 


 

Yoo ______:

I haven't been on Facebook in forever!

               

Kim Yojin:  Dust off the cob webs. Check for spiders.

Yoo ______: ㅠㅡㅠ Ewwww Yojinnie, kill them for me.

 


 

Yoo ______:

Where is my nerd when I need him?! AISH!!!! Ahn Jaehyo....SAENGIL CHUKAHAE!!!!

 

            

Ahn Changin: Happy Birthday JaePoop

 

Yoo ______: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 

Ahn Jaehyo:  Aww… ______-ah, KAMSAHAMNIDA! Changin Hyung....NO WOORI FOR YOU!!! D:<

 

Yoo ______: Aaah, I miss you two! ㅋㅋㅋ

 

Ahn Jaehyo: ______-ah, where's my present? :D

 

Yoo ______: In the store with its friends that just so happen to look just like it.

 

Ahn Jaehyo: D:

 

Yoo ______: ^-^

 

Yong Junhyung: Where is Oppa's birthday wish? Where is my accepted friend request?!?!

 

Yoo ______: Junhyungie Oppa! Happy belated birthday! I'm searching for your request right now ㅋㅋㅋ

 

Ahn Jaehyo: Aigoo~ Yoo ______ is a Facebook fail.

 

Yoo _____: I can unfriend you, JaePoop.

 

Ahn Jaehyo: Do you even know how? XD I doubt it.

 


 

______ made a face at her computer.

Yojin was grinning.

“Are you addicted again?”

“OH MY GOD!~ I’m going to lose the ability to speak to people face to face!”

“That’s alright. You and Oppa will just be, even more, compatible.”

______ smiled and shook her head.

“Yojin…”

“Just imagine if you and Oppa became facebook friends! You’d NEVER talk!”

 


 

Yong Junhyung: Someone shouldn't have left his Facebook open!~ I’m stealing your hand phone. Snoop. Snoop. Snoop. ㅋㅋㅋㅋYang Yoseobie is HERE! You're going to beat me to a pulp, right? Don't do it! It's almost Christmas! Holiday Spirit Yongjun-ah!~~ I’m in a good mood today! ♫ Jingle Bells!~ Jingle Bells!~ Jingle All The Way!~~ Santa Might put you on the Naughty list, so be nice to Yoseobie!~ ♫

 


 

“He’s awake already?” ______ giggled, pointing to the computer.

Yojin leaned over to read the status update.

“Mhm….and Unnie thinks that he needs a Keurig? Oppa doesn't need a present. YOU can be his present. Oppa is just excited that you're going to spend Christmas with us."

______ smiled a bit.

"Is that alright with his parents?"

"OF COURSE!~" Yojin shouted happily. "They're so excited about you coming to visit. You're spending the whole holiday with us, right?"

______ blinked and shrugged.

"I didn't know that."

Yojin shook her head.

"Aigoo!~ Unnie, do you see what I mean, about Oppa not speaking? SMH! S! M! H!"

"WE'RE SLEEPING OVER!~" Ricky squealed.

He had overheard the girls talking and came to check.

"Excited much." ______ laughed.
