Weeks have passed since that night. I never heard news about him anymore. I mean, I still get some news about him from the internet or TV, but I never get a contact to him. My sister said she still keeps in contact with Siwon or Sungmin from e-mail or chat messenger.

That night, Sungmin told me that he really avoid any relationship with fans. Even just being friends with their fans, he really hates it. Because there was a fan that was really close to him, that he really trusted. He even fell in love with that girl. But somehow He found out that that girl is really a stalker. She stole some Super Junior’s private things  and sold them in the internet, then she revealed Kyuhyun’s secrets like his family problems, his college life, even Super Junior’s sensitive problems in the internet. Since that day, Kyuhyun never want to get closer to his fans. He only managed to smile and wave to them.

 

I feel really bad to Kyuhyun and the rest of Super Junior. But it really hurt my heart to know he hates me. I really forget that they’re Super Junior until he revealed it. The whole day I spent with them was great, I only thought that they’re friends. Not an artist.

 

However, I don’t want to remember it anymore. Now I’ve moved to Korea, living with my sister and my grandparents. Actually my Grandparents lived separately with us. Their house was only one block away from ours. I’ll continue my study in a University in Seoul. College will start in March, which is months away, but I still have to take Korean course and of course an exam to entering university.

 

I’m still not getting used to live in Korea.  With different weather and seasons, different culture, different language. I don’t have any friends here. Because of the langu.

So I only can talk with my sister and my grandma. Even grandpa can’t speak Indonesian. Although he could understand a little. So I rarely communicate with people here.

 

“Yaah, ______-ah. Do you have any plan next Thursday?” asked my sister. We’re in our living room now, watching TV while having diner.

 

“Nope. Why?”

 

“No Korean course?” she asked me again.

 

“No course in Thursday. Why is it?”

 

“Great then. You’ll come with me. We’re going to grandma’s” what? I thought she was going to take me shopping. We’re visiting grandma like everyday.

 

“I thought we’ve visited them so many times. I used to be there when you’re not at home, you know”

 

“Yah! There will be family gathering in grandma’s house. I didn’t mean we’ll just visit them”  A family gathering? What is it again.. I never like that kind of occasion..

 

“Onnie.. Can I skip it this time? I hate family gathering. Besides, I can’t communicate with the others. They’ll speak Korean, right?” I can imagine I’ll be the center of attention since I just moved here. They’ll ask me thousand of question and I won’t understand what they’ve asked. Haaah~

 

“No no no. You’ll love it ______. They’re all very kind and funny. You must meet them. It’s your mom’s siblings and family, you know”

 

“Okay.. Whatever you say. Sist”

 

“Oh, one thing! You have to meet one of our cousins. You’ll love him!” what? What cousin??

 

Me and my sister are in my grandparents’ house now. So the gathering that my sister said, it’s just a normal lunch with our family. Grandma said they always do it once in a month in her house. Everyone in my grandparents’ family are come. Except my parents, my sister and me. But since my sister lives here, she never missed it. My grandparents have 2 daughters and 1 son. My mom is their youngest child. From their first son, they got 2 grandchildren, 3 grandchildren from their first daughter and 2 grandchildren from my parents. Well it’s not a huge number of families, I guess.

 

I bring my home made tofu-pudding as a present for my grandparents. I named it tofu pudding but it’s not made by tofu. This is my best cook. I felt so nervous when I was about entering my grandparents’ house. There are so many pairs of shoes outside. I guess some of my families have already come. When we entered the house,  my family welcome us with hug and smiles. Hey, I remember them. I’ve met them.

 

“Of course you’ve meet them! We spent our holidays in Korea for several times. It’s strange if you forget them” my sister said to me. We’re on the kitchen now, helping my grandma preparing the lunch.

 

“Hmm.. Oh! You said I have to meet our cousin. Do you mean those kids out there?” what I mean those kids are actually my aunt’s 5 years old twins daughter and 8 years old son. Well they’re so cute and I love them but I’m expecting older one.

 

“Aniyoo! He’s older than us. Hahaha. Just wait”

 

“So he’s a he then. What’s so special about him?” I asked her in curiosity.

 

“Nothing. But he’s my first friend in Korea. Emm.. Actually I didn’t meet him so often. He’s busy working. But once spending time with him, you’ll love him” I’m kinda anxious to meet this guy, my cousin I mean. Actually I really want to have a brother in my family.

 

“Oh! You’ve met him actually! He’s InYoung onnie’s brother!” InYoung onnie?! Wait. I remember her! She’s sooo nice to me. Wait wait.. her brother? I do remember him. They both were so nice to me and my sister. They’re like my favorite cousins.

 

“InYoung onnie? I remember now! They’re really coming here?? Seriously?” I’m eager to see them. Geez it’s been so long. Emm.. 8 years? Or 10 years? Suddenly my grandma comes into the kitchen and tells us to stop pealing fruits and go outside because our cousin’s here. It’s them!

 

“Come on ______!”

 

I followed my sister to the living room. My family’s laughing and talking. It was very hectic and noisy in a good way. I can see they’re cheering on my uncle who’s dancing to sorry sorry. Why is he dancing that dance?

 

“Jungsoo oppa!” my sister shouted. Jungsoo? That name’s kinda familiar to me..

 

My sister approached to a man with blonde hair that giving applause to my uncle. He turned his head when my sister tapped his back. He’s smiling to my sister then hugs her. I can see his face. He has a dimple near his mouth. I’m gasped. No way. This is nonsense. He can’t be him.. That blonde hair, that smile, that dimple, that eyes..

 

“______-ah. Come here!” I walked to them and stood in front of him.

 

“So ______, this is Jungsoo oppa. InYoung onnie’s brother. Do you remember him?” said my sister cheerfully.

 

{In Korean}”Oppa.. This is ______. Ah! Her Korean name is ______.” Said my sister to him

 

{In Korean} “______-ah?? It’s been so long! Last time I met you, you’re still a kid” He’s really my cousin?? Last time he met me, I was still a kid? This gotta be kidding me.. He’s…

 

“Leeteuk oppa..” I murmured. He was shocked when I called his stage name. But then he smiled. Park Jungsoo.. Of course.. It’s his real nme..

 

“What?” my sister asked. Of course. She didn’t know anything about this. She didn’t know that this man, her cousin, MY COUSIN for God sakes, is the one and only, Super Junior’s Leader, Leeteuk!

 

 

 

 

 

“So Jungsoo Oppa, you’re Super Junior’s leader?!” asked Audrey hysterically, “Damn, I’m getting bored with these Super Junior related things!”

 

“Why???!”  Leeteuk asked hysterically too. LOL. He’s 28 years old and we’re in a serious situation now, but he still can fool around. One thing that I that surprised me, Leeteuk is actually can speak English! He’s pretending that he didn’t understand English for all this time.

 

“Oppa, seriously” My sister seemed a little over worried about this. She thought Super Junior is a sensitive issue to me

 

“What? Hyeonmi. Don’t take it seriously. I’ve apologies for not telling you. But how could you not know? You’re living in Korea for 2 years! And we’re not an infamous group here” Leeteuk explained. I nodded as an agreement to his explanation.

 

“I don’t like Korean Pop! Geez.. But ______-ah.. Are you okay with this?” suddenly my sister asked me that. What did she mean? Of course I’m okay! I’m having Leeteuk as a brother.

 

“Of course I’m okay! I’m too happy to know that” I said as I smiled to him. Leeteuk pinched my cheeks and said,

 

“Aigoo. You’re too cute. So you’re one of our fans, then? Hihihi” he asked me giggling. Fan? My heart’s hurt as he said the word ‘Fan’. It reminds me of that night. Reminds me of Cho Kyuhyun…

 

“Nope. Not anymore” I murmured unhappily..

 

“Eeeh? Why? You don’t love Super Junior anymore?” he asked me in shocked.

 

“Oppa.. That’s why I’m over worried. You don’t know what happened. I think you should know something first..”

 

So my sister’s telling Leeteuk the whole story. About the first time we met Super Junior in the concert, about shopping time, early diner with sunset scenery, and about me and Kyuhyun.

 

“So that’s why you never be an ELF anymore?” Leeteuk asked me after my sister finished her explanation.

 

“Aniyo oppa.. It’s not like that…” I said as he tucked my head and put it to his chest.

 

“I know, I know. Don’t worry I understand” he said to me. My sister‘s giggling when Leeteuk did that. I know that normally in condition like this I supposedly so nervous or something, but now all I can feel is warmth and love from a brother. So this is how the feeling of having a brother is.

 

“Komawo Leeteuk Oppa..”

 

“Hihihi. I didn’t hug you and tuck you like this for long time, right? Don’t you miss me?” he asked me and change the subject.

 

“Emm.. yes. But only if I remember you” I said honestly. Leeteuk and my sister bursted into laugh.

 

“Hahaha. It’s okay. You’re just a kid back then. You might not remember me so clearly. But I do remember you. And miss you both. You girls are my only lil’ sister”

 

“Oppa. Where’s InYoung onnie? I miss her a lot” I asked him.

 

“Noona can’t come here today. So it’s only me and my parents” he answered. It’s too bad. I’m eager to see her.

 

{In Korean} “KIDS! LUNCH’S READY! LET’S EAT!” suddenly my grandpa shouted from the dining room.

 

“He told us to eat, right?” I asked them. I can’t speak Korean yet. But I can understand a little.

 

“Yup. Come on” Leeteuk said.

 

 

 

It’s 5 pm here and everybody decided to go home. The launch is very good. My grandma’s cook is the best. Even my Mom can’t defeat her. Grandma cooked Indonesian food in Korean style for us. So every body could enjoy the food. Leeteuk couldn’t stop saying he loves Grandma’s cook. It’s the best. That he want all Super Junior members to taste it, and so on. But don’t forget my tofu pudding. It’s also good. Everybody said that. My aunty and my uncle’s wife even asked the recipe. Today’s really full of happiness.

 

“Grandma, thank you for the launch. We’re going home now” my sister said as she hugs Grandma. I followed her and hug Grandma as she did.

 

{In Korean} “Jal jinaeseyo, be careful. Yah, jungsoo.. You take a good care to these girls” said grandma to leeteuk.

 

{In Korean} “Ne, halmeoni. See you again, halmeoni” Leeteuk said as he hug Grandma.

 

(In Indonesian Bahasa) “Audrey, ______. You both be careful, okay. Don’t forget to call your parents. If you want to eat or need something, just call me” Grandma said to me and my sister.

 

(In Indonesian Bahasa) “Ne, grandma.. You and Grandpa take care too” I said to grandma.

 

After all the hugs and waving and bowing, Leeteuk, my sister, and I went home by Leeteuk’s car. Leeteuk drive us home and his parents went home by other car. We made it home not even for 5 minutes because our home is really close to our Grandparent’s house.

 

“Oppa, do you wanna come in first?” my sister asked Leeteuk.

 

“No, thank you. But I have to go back now. The boys are waiting for me”

 

“That’s too bad. Well, thank you for driving us home, Oppa. Careful while driving”

 

“Ne, hyeonmi. Oh, ______-ah!” Leeteuk called my name.

 

“Ne, oppa?”

 

“I’m gonna give Kyuhyunnie some punishment tonight. Don’t worry, okay?” he said he what?? No! He can’t do that!

 

“Nooo!!! Oppa! Please don’t! Let him be. You promise me you never gonna talk to him about this” I told him. Panicky.

 

“About what? That you’re my cousin?”

 

“No… About me and Kyuhyun. It’s okay if you wanna show off to the world that I’m your cousin” I a little.

 

“What? Yeah, right. Okay I’m not gonna talked to him about your problem with him. Now you both get in to the house! It’s getting darker outside”

 

“Ne, Oppa!” we both shouted together and waved to Leeteuk.
