It was after midnight when they arrived and two cars were already parked in front of the house. Haneul yawned and got out of the car, Z following her. Jong Suk carried the bags and they went inside. Ji Chang and Hoon were already in the living room and they were setting up the game console so that they can play games later on. Once they heard them come in, they yelled their greetings from the living room. Jong Suk put the bags in the hallway and the two of them joined the guys in the living room. 

The guys looked at them and smiled. They were both holding their joysticks and messing with them to see if they set them up properly. Jong Suk and Haneul sat down and they watched. The guys left what they were doing and got up from the floor and over to the couch to sit down.

"Nice to see you again, Haneul." Ji Hoon smiled brightly. 

Haneul smiled a little and nodded her head. She felt a bit uncomfortable because she couldn't remember him, but tried to play cool. 

"Nice to meet you as well.." She said but she felt like those weren't the right words. 

"No worries." Ji Hoon showed a thumbs up.

Ji Chang got up to bring them some snacks and drinks and then joined them again. They started talking about what happened earlier and what are their next moves. Their deal was to keep Haneul here, for now, it's so far the safest place, and this area is very difficult to find if you're not from this part of the city. Thankfully for them, Jong Suk's father wasn't familiar with this place. 

That being said the guys agreed that they would get her the things she needs. At this point, they will do anything to protect her. Her being safe is the most important thing right now. 

"Guys, I would like to ask something," Haneul said and looked at them.

They all looked at her and there was curiosity in their eyes. 

"Since for now I don't have any memories of us spending time together, would you like to share some stories from our childhood?" She smiled and picked up her soda can, opening it. 

"That's a good idea." Hoon and Ji Chang said in one voice.

"Of course," Jong-suk replied and smiled.

They all threw the pillows on the floor before sitting on that same floor and forming a circle and putting a pillow in their laps. Z wagged his tail and turned around before laying down in the middle of the circle that they made. 

"Before we start, I have a question." Ji Chang said and raised his hand like he was a child in a classroom.

They all looked at him and tilted their heads to the side a little.

"How come you weren't surprised I kept a secret from you?" He asked.

"Hmm." She put a finger on her chin and looked at the guys before answering. "We all have things we don't want to say or we can't say right away, you had your reasons and now I understand why, well..." She paused. "At least I understand partially why." She smiled lightly.

"Well, that never changed about you," Hoon added.

She turned and looked at him. 

"You always found a way to understand others and you were never mad, regardless of what was going on," Hoon said.

"Really?" She asked.

"Yeah, he's right. You haven't really changed much regarding that." Ji Chang added.

"Tell me more." She clapped her hands like a child.

The guys chuckled at her reaction and nodded their heads. They were happy that she was back and they were willing to help her get her memory back, but of course, they decided to be careful. Ji Chang knew that a lot of information can trigger a lot of flashbacks and it will cause her a headache. They started talking about their childhood memories and what they did as kids. As they talked Haneul tried to imagine those scenes.

They were outside playing hide and seek. Haneul heard footsteps and she peeked from behind the place she was hiding and saw that it was Ji Chang. He was looking for them. 

"Come out, come out, wherever you are." She could hear him.

She giggled quietly and kept hiding behind the big tree trunk. Ji Hoon was on the other side across from her and they could see each other, Jong Suk hid in the bushes. She slowly moved and in the process, she stood on a branch and that revealed her position. Ji Chang
