Minho's house

7 years and 2 months ago.....

“Onew, Where is your brother Minho ? He have to finish packing up all his things tonight” Mrs. Choi asked her oldest son

“I don’t know Umma. I haven’t seen him since I got back from the grocery store this afternoon” Onew answered his Umma.  I’ll go to his room to check Umma”

Onew went to Minho’s room and he saw Jonghyun sat on the cozy car-shaped couch  inside the room and  busy playing with his new edition high-tech handphone.

Jonghyun is a gadget-minded one. He always managed to buy the newest high-tech gadget. When everyone still didn’t know there are such things like friendster, yahoo messenger, and other social networks , he already familiar with that.

Since Jonghyun shared his room with Minho, Onew thought maybe he knew where Minho is.

“Jjong, where’s Minho?” asked Onew, standing in front of the room. Jjong remained silent. He seemed didn’t hear Onew’s voice.

Knowing his brother didn’t notice him, Onew entered the room and walked closer to Jjong in silent. Carefully he took position on Jjong’s leftside, slowly move his face closer to Jjong’s ear and with loud voice he said “WHERE IS MINHO?”

Jjong jumped off from the couch in shocked. His precious handset almost fell down to the floor, luckily Onew managed to catch it.

“Yaa..hyuuung…why did you do that” Jjong yelled at Onew with frown face and took back his gadget from Onew’s hand.

Key and Taemin who was in their bedroom heard the noisy voices came from lefside of their room, which is Jjong and Minho’s room. They looked at each other’s face in  and together they run out the room to see what’s happening.

“Did you guys just yelled at each other hyung?” Taemin asked his brothers innocently.  

Onew and Jjong turned their heads in the same time towards the door, and found two funny faces with eyes wide open was looking at them. Spontaneously they burst in laugh.

Taemin and Key once again looked at each other and then looked at Onew and Jjong, then looked at each other again.

“Our poor hyung, I think they’re having emotional problems these days” said Key with sad face.

“Dear God please give us strength” Taemin replied and put his hand in front of his chest. They felt pity for their Hyungs.

suddenly a pillow hit right in their face.

“Yaa..what did you say?” Jjong yelled at his two younger brothers with smile on his face, and Onew laughed out loud seeing his dorky and silly brothers.

“Did you see Minho? Umma is looking for him?” still with laugh, Onew asked Jjong, Key and Taemin.

“Anniy..”said Taemin , while Jonghyun and Key shooked their heads.

“Aiiish…where did he go?” Onew's face now turned to worry.

As the oldest son in the family, Onew knows very well each characters of his brothers. Unlike Jjong, Key and Taemin who are blunt and speak often,  Minho is the quiet and introvert one.   He need to approach Minho in a special way to make Minho tell everything.

Onew tried to remember what has happened this morning. But he found nothing wrong with Minho this morning, until Umma asked him to buy things in the grocery store.

“Ah yaa..i remember” said key in a sudden with his hand raised up, just like a student who  want to answer teacher’s question.

Jjong, Taemin and Onew spontaneously asked Key “REMEMBER WHAT?”

Their voices sounds so beautiful and harmonious together. Even Jjong , Taemin and Onew surprised after heard their own voices. 

Key realized the beautiful sounds and said “waa..hyung, I think we need to form a boyband, your voices sounds very good together”  and made a cute aegyeo

Jjong and Taemin laughed at Key.

“Aiish be serious now Key, what did you remember?” Onew seriously asked him.

“I saw Minho took some of his money from his savings box. When I asked him, what was for, he said that he need to buy something”  said Key

“That’s all?” Onew asked again

“Yupp..that is all” Key nodded

“Maybe he went to buy a book, he is a bookworm anyway”  Jjong added.

“Ya, maybe you’re right”  Onew agreed with Jjong. But somehow he felt something not right. He worried about Minho.

“Okey, I will tell Umma” Onew woke up from the couch and walked outside, left the three .
