The six women stood on the curb staring at the large building in front of them.
"So are we going in or are we just going to stand out here and stare?" Hyoyeon asked looking at the other five women.
"Do we really have to live here? I mean, we were all perfectly happy at Taeyeon's place. Three more people might complicate things…" Sooyoung said, looking at the others.
"Speak for yourselves. At least here I'll have an actual bed to sleep on." Taeyeon grumbled, taking the first steps towards the door to the building, the five others following after her.
"I wonder if Yoona's already here." Sooyoung said, looking around the new building.
"Probably. She was supposed to come with Yuri, and I think Joohyun's parents are supposed to bring her later." Sunny said, walking up next to Sooyoung.
"Why do you want to know if Yoona's here?" Jessica asked, her voice straining slightly in jealousy.
"She's supposed to help me cook our first dinner together as a group." Sooyoung answered, not paying much mind to the way Jessica was acting, if she noticed at all.
"Well, this is it." Taeyeon said, stopping in front of a door and eyeing warily as the others came to a stop behind her.
"You stand and stare too much." Hyoyeon said, walking past Taeyeon to open the door and walk in.
"They expect nine of us to live in this little dorm? Have they lost their minds?" Hyoyeon asked as soon as she stepped foot inside, looking around with a scowl.
"Wait did you guys here that?" Tiffany asked, causing the others to keep quiet. A loud bump was heard directing the women’s attention to the bedroom doors.
"Whatever it is, it’s coming from one of our rooms." Sooyoung said slowly, walking towards the doors cautiously.
"Yah! Yul stop! That hurts!" a voice on the other side of the door groaned out in pain. Sooyoung's eye's widened as she turned to walk back to the others quickly.
"What happened? Is someone being brutally murdered in that room?" Sunny asked sarcastically.
"N-no, not exactly." Sooyoung stuttered, her face still one of shock.
"Sooyoung just tell us what's going on in there." Taeyeon demanded, crossing her arms.
"I-I think Yoona and Yuri are in there hav-" Sooyoung was cut off when the bedroom door opened suddenly, revealing a grinning Yoona.
"You guys are here! Finally!" Yoona said before turning to tell Yuri the others arrived.
"S-so, what have you two been doing all this time?" Sooyoung asked, a slight smirk appearing on her face, causing the other five to look at her in confusion. Yoona turned her attention back to the six women.
"We built a fort!" Yoona answered grinning even wider. Sooyoung's smirk quickly disappeared.
"A fort?" Sunny asked, quirking an eyebrow at the younger woman.
"Yeah! It's amazing, and was fun to build, until Yul knocked a shelf over and it landed on my foot. But don’t worry, I’m okay. Do you guys want to see it?!" Yoona asked jumping around like a little kid. Before the others could answer, Yuri stepped out of the room and wrapped her arms around Yoona's waist from the back.
"I don't know why she's so hyper." Yuri said, chuckling while looking at the five older women. Yoona turned slightly, slapping Yuri's shoulder.
"You know exactly why!" Yoona reprimanded, blushing slightly.
"Anyone care to explain to us what's going on here?" Tiffany asked, still looking at the two. Yoona turned and smiled at the others.
"Since we've made it a rule that we can't keep secrets from each other… I should tell you all that Yul confessed to me this morning." Yoona said happily, looking back at the woman who was still back hugging her. Sunny squealed before running over to hug Yoona and Yuri, followed closely by Tiffany. Hyoyeon, Sooyoung and Jessica stayed in their spot smiling at the happy pair.
"Now wait." Taeyeon said causing them all to turn and look at her.
"Since you’re all here I have a very important question to ask." she said, causing the others to quiet down.
“We live in a very homophobic country, yet it seems all of you, or most of you, uh… lean the other way. How in the hell did that happen?" Taeyeon asked causing a couple of people to glare at her. Taeyeon held up her hands defensively.
"Look, I'm not trying to cause problems; I'm just really confused about you all. If news got out that most of the members were gay, wouldn’t that cause a lot of issues?" Taeyeon said quickly defending herself.
“Yeah, look who’s talking, miss ‘let’s let five strange women stay in my house.’” Yuri said, tightening her grip around Yoona’s waist protectively.
“Hey I never meant to cause a disruption like this, I’m just asking!” Taeyeon said, glaring at Yuri.
“You know, I have to agree with them. That’s kind of cold to say. If you’re so uncomfortable around them, then maybe you should leave.” Hyoyeon said, before walking over to the couch to set her things down.
“You all are taking this the wrong way!” Taeyeon shouted at the seven women.
“No Taeyeon, we understand what you’re trying to say.” Yoona said before turning to walk back into the room she was in moments earlier.
“I ask an innocent question, and you all think you have the right to humiliate me like this? I took care of most of you and invited you into my home, if this is the way I’m going to get treated after asking a question out of honest curiosity, then I’m out of here!” Taeyeon shouted to the six other women as she turned to leave.
“Taeyeon you’re not seriously going to leave us are you? Y-you can’t.” Tiffany said, watching the retreating figure. Taeyeon stopped and turned to the younger woman.
“Watch me. I don’t need this stupid dorm, this childish drama, and most importantly, I sure as hell don’t need you!” Taeyeon shouted at the brunette.
“Unnies? I heard shouting, is everything alright?” Seohyun asked as she stepped into the dorm, only to be shoved to the side by Taeyeon as she left. The seven remained quiet, staring at the door Taeyeon just left through.
“Tiffany unnie? Are you okay? You don’t look well.” Seohyun asked as she turned around and noticed the change in Tiffany’s expression.
“S-she left…” Tiffany said, staring at the door. The six women turned to look at Tiffany.
"After all the crap she's put us through… she just left." Tiffany continued.
"Uh, Seohyun, Yuri? Could you two maybe give us a minute alone with Fany?" Sunny asked, noticing the anger in Tiffany's eyes beginning to rage.
"Sure unnie." Seohyun said, before walking away and entering one of the bedrooms with her bags in hand, followed by Yuri who entered the bedroom Yoona had disappeared into.
"Tiffany, calm down." Sooyoung said, walking up to Tiffany's side.
"She just ing leaves after making us all horrible monsters, and you want me to calm down?!" Tiffany shouted, glaring at Sooyoung.
"Tiff, calm down seriously. The others are in the next room…" Jessica said, walking over to the raging woman.
"Stop telling me to calm down! I left everything I cared about back in America to come here to try to make it big. She just threw everything I've worked for out the window!" Tiffany shouted as tears started to form in her eyes.
"Tiffany she did not. Just because she left, doesn't mean you lost anything. They will just find someone new to replace her." Sunny said trying to calm the upset woman. A tear slid down Tiffany's face as she looked at Sunny.
"You're telling me you don't even care that she left us? Sunny we can never go back to being normal if this doesn't work out. I can't go back home knowing I might kill my family by accident." Tiffany said as another tear escaped her eye.
“Stephanie Hwang get ahold of yourself!” Jessica said grabbing onto Tiffany's shoulders.
"No Jessi!" Tiffany exclaimed, escaping Jessica's hold.
"How do you think it feels knowing the next time you see your mom or dad you might go crazy and kill them!? Jessica, my dad, brother and sister are all I have left! I've already lost my mom, I can't lose them too! And the only way I can make that possible is if I never see them again!" Tiffany shouted at the older woman as more tears began to fall.
"And what exactly is Taeyeon going to do to stop that from happening?" Jessica replied in a calm tone, using the back of her hand to wipe the tears on Tiffany's face.
"I-I don't know, but it's all her fault! She could do something to help!" Tiffany said, wrapping her arms around Jessica into a hug while continuing to cry on her shoulder.
"So wait, explain something to me." Hyoyeon said causing the two to turn and look at her.
"I completely understand you not wanting to kill your family, but what about Seohyun, Yuri, and Yoona? Are you saying that since they're not family, you don’t care if you kill them?" Hyoyeon asked pointing to the rooms the three entered moments earlier. Tiffany looked between the rooms Hyoyeon was pointing at.
"Seriously Hyoyeon, you bring that up now?" Jessica hissed, glaring at the younger woman.
"Well I'm sorry I care about our other members, jeez." Hyoyeon said as she went to go sit on the living room couch.
"J-jessi I'm going to go lay down in my room for a bit okay?" Tiffany said trying to hold her tears back.
"Tiffany we will figure something out okay? Don't worry yourself too much, you’ll just run yourself into the ground." Jessica said as Tiffany began to walk towards her room. Tiffany simply nodded before entering the room.
Later that night, Tiffany walked out of her bedroom, looking around the dorm to make sure everyone was asleep, before going into the living room. Once she was sure she was alone, she pulled out her phone from her pocket and quickly began dialing someone's number, as another tear trailed down her face. After a short time a man answered the call with a skeptic ‘hello?’, causing more tears to fall from her eyes.
"D-daddy are you there?" she asked trying not to have a breakdown on the phone.
"Stephanie, is that you?" the man asked.
"Yes it is." Tiffany replied shortly.
"Where have you been!? You leave here and don't think you have to call home every once in a while just so we know you're okay!? Stephanie we talked about this before you left! You were supposed to call at least once every two weeks!" The man on the phone shouted, only causing more tears to stream down Tiffany's face.
"I-I'm s-sorry daddy, I've b-been busy with practice, and moving into the new dorm." Tiffany said quickly covering so her sobs couldn't be heard.
"Stephanie are you alright? You don't sound well." the man asked noticing the strain in his daughter’s voice.
"I-I'm fine daddy, it's j-just really good to hear your v-voice again." Tiffany said wiping the tears on her face with the back of her hand.
"You know you could have called me at any time." the man said, now in a much calmer tone.
"I know, and I'm r-really sorry." Tiffany replied.
"Stephanie, please tell me what's wrong. Do you not like it there?" the man said after hearing slight sobs coming from Tiffany.
"N-nothing is wrong, I-I just miss home, that's all." Tiffany said, trying to reassure her father, though she was doing a poor job.
"Stephanie, I know we weren't on very good terms when you left, but please know if you don't want to continue this, you can always come home." the man said, trying to calm Tiffany down. Tiffany remained quiet as she brought her knees up to her chest and began sobbing once again. A slight mumble could be heard by Tiffany's father before he began to speak once again.
"Stephanie, I hate to do this with you like this, but I have to go. Please call more often, I would call you but I wouldn't want to disturb you during practice." the man said.
"Okay daddy, I-I'll call again soon." Tiffany said with a shaky voice.
"Be careful, and keep in mind what I said. I love and miss you Stephanie." the man said in a caring tone.
"I-I love and miss you too d-daddy." Tiffany replied.
"Take care, and I expect another phone call soon okay?" the man said in a caring tone.
"Okay daddy. I'll call again soon." Tiffany replied before the call ended. As soon as she heard the click indicating the call was over, her tears began to flow freely. Moments later the front door to the dorm opened and closed. Tiffany sat up, quickly wiping the tears from her face. The small figure walked by Tiffany, ignoring her presence completely. Tiffany turned to see who was headed to her room, but only caught a glimpse of them. "Good night Sunny." Tiffany said in a hushed tone to the retreating figure. The small woman turned and glared at Tiffany, her red irises gleaming.
"How dare you compare me to her! We look nothing alike!" the small figure growled, turning and walking closer to Tiffany. Recognizing the voice, Tiffany quickly turned around to look at the woman now in front of her.
“T-Taeyeon? You came back?" Tiffany asked staring at the woman in front of her in disbelief.
"No, I'm her identical twin sister." Taeyeon replied sarcastically before turning to walk back to her room.
"After all this you still have the nerve to come here and be rude to me?" Tiffany asked incredulously, now glaring at the short woman. Taeyeon stopped in her tracks.
"Excuse me?" she asked, turning back to the woman in the living room.
"You heard me! Do you know exactly what you've done here? Thanks to you, none of us can ever go home and live a normal life if this doesn't work out. Taeyeon I can never go back to my family. I've already lost my mom; I can't stand the thought of losing my dad and siblings as well. But you, the second one thing doesn't go your way you just leave! It's your fault we’re even in this mess!" Tiffany shouted as tears streamed down her face once again.
“Yah! Don't shout! You're going to wake up the other members! And stop crying!" Taeyeon growled in a hushed tone, crossing her arms over her chest.
"Why, are you going to get upset and leave again?" Tiffany sneered, still sobbing slightly.
"I'm not going anywhere, just please stop crying." Taeyeon pleaded, avoiding looking at Tiffany.
"Why do you even care? Just run to your room and leave me here." Tiffany hissed in a hushed tone, turning her back to Taeyeon as she continued to sob.
"I-I said stop!" Taeyeon shouted, taking a few steps backwards.
"Why do you even care! Just leave me alone! I hate you!" Tiffany shouted turning to Taeyeon as more tears trailed down her face. Seconds later Taeyeon clenched her chest and dropped to the ground screaming in pain.
"Yah! What's going on in here!?" Sunny shouted, walking out of her room only to find Taeyeon on the ground still clenching her chest.
"T-Taeyeon? What are you doing here?" she asked before looking up at Tiffany who was still sobbing.
"Tiffany, did you do this?" Sunny asked looking back down at Taeyeon.
"For God's sake, do guys know what time it is? If you're going to be this loud, why don't we have a party now at 3:09 AM!" Jessica growled before realizing who the person on the ground was.
"What the hell is she doing here?" she asked, looking at Sunny.
"I have no idea; I came in because of the noise and found her here like this." Sunny said, looking back down at Taeyeon. Jessica quickly looked over at the couch to find Tiffany staring blankly at the space in front of her.
"You! You think you have the nerve to come back here after what you said!?" Jessica shouted at the figure lying helplessly on the floor.
"Do you have any idea what you've put my best friend through!?" she continued shouting at the older woman, who finally sat up still holding her chest.
"J-Jessi, it's not worth it. Just go b-back to bed." Tiffany finally spoke, causing the three women to look at her.
"No, she needs to know how much she's putting us all through!" Jessica said, glaring down at the older woman.
"Jessi it's over. She's back, now we can at least debut. I'm going to bed." Tiffany said lifelessly as she stood up and began to walk back to her room.
"Goodnight Jessica. Night Sunny." she said as she shut her bedroom door slowly. Once they were sure Tiffany wasn't coming back, Jessica grabbed Taeyeon by her shirt and dragged her up to her feet.
"If you make her cry one more time I will do anything I can to kill you." she said, before shoving Taeyeon away and turning to go back to her room.
"Taengoo, are you okay?" Sunny asked, looking at the older woman. Taeyeon simply nodded while still lightly holding her chest.
"I'm going to go to bed if you're okay then." Sunny said before turning to go back to her room.
"Sunny? Don't you hate me like they do?" Taeyeon asked just above a whisper, but loud enough so that Sunny would hear her.
"I can't answer that right now Tae. Just go to bed." Sunny said, before closing her bedroom door. Taeyeon walked over to the couch before lying down on it.
"Why won't this pain go away?" she whispered, still holding her chest. Not wanting to dwell on it, she shrugged it off and went to sleep.
