Continuation....

Waiting outside is the Choi’s group, Jessica and Heechul walk greeting them. Joonie directs everyone which vehicle to ride on…

 Number of vehicles Heechul prepared for this trip are:

1. Five 50-seater coaster for all the Kim and Chois’ household members
2. 3 Hummers for the bodyguards
3. Total 2 Limos: 1 with Heechul, Jessica, Leeteuk and Sooyoung plus the bodyguards and at the other limo vehicle are: Taeyang, Joonie, Minho, Taemin and the sleeping Kibum lying on a mini-bed as well as bodyguards.

At the airport are two planes waiting; one is a Full Luxury Jet Experience for the Kim’s and Choi’s family plus Taeyang, Joonie and Kikwang and the other is a Boeing 707-400 plane for the household members.

 Arriving at the airport, all of them except Heechul, Jessica, Taeyang and Joonie, heave a sigh amazed looking at the planes for the trip… Pretty excited all household members happily go on board.

 The Choi family gasps when they enter the Jet especially Taeminnie who openly expresses his amazement…

Taeminnie:      (holding Jessica’s hand) Auntie, this plane is so incredible. I have never experienced riding
                        on an ordinary plane and I am so happy that my first plane ride is as magnificent as this.
                        Thank you very much (kissing Jessica’s hand)

 Jessica:           (amused by Taemin’s adorable statements and actions – squeezes Taemin’s hands and
                         kneels facing him) really? You are welcome Dear. Did you know that Bummie has his own
                         private jet planes? He uses them when traveling to various places and uses a special
                         plane when he wants to see my father.

Taeminnie:      (covers his mouth in surprise) Oh my god, that’s how rich Bummie is? Did you hear that
                        Mom and Dad, Minho hyung. Key-hyung has his own private jet planes – how cool is that.

 Minho:             (holds Taemin’s hand) ssshhhh Taeminnie behave – don’t embarrass us…

Taeminnie:      (does not pay attention to Minho’s warning) But Auntie Key hyung never tells us anything
                         about what he does and owns… why is that?

Jessica:           (amused) ooohh dear, Bummie is just like that…so I trust you will keep it a secret too,
                        deal?

Taeminnie:      (so serious) hhhmm I see… deal! sure Kibum hyung is so kind, nice and down to earth…
                         that is why I love him so much like my Minho hyung loves him he he he…

Minho:             (hearing Taeminnie makes him so embarrased) aaahhh Taeminnie…come now…

Heechul:          By the way; Minho and Taeminnie, did Ms. Joonie inform you as regard rooming with 
                        Kibum tonight and tomorrow…

Minho:             Yes Uncle Heechul.. we are aware of it.. Don’t mind us – we will take care of Bummie…

Heechul:          Thanks a lot son… (looks at Leeteuk and Sooyoung with an approving gesture then
                        smiles)

It is nighttime when they reach the venue - arriving in less than an hour.  They all get off the plane with mixed feelings of excitement, anxiety and mystery. The place is so quiet – there is no trace of hint displayed. All are in wonder how this place looks like because the entire venue is covered and darkened – but dimly lightened on certain areas with one light each.  They were carefully instructed not to wander around the venue to secure secrecy for tomorrow’s event.

Everyone is asked to proceed at the huge main hall for dinner time.  All household members are treated as guests thus making all of them surprisingly happy. While everyone is having dinner; Taeyang (carrying Bummie), Minho and Taemin go to their assigned room – they are told that their meal will be served inside the room.

Taeyang:         Sir Minho and Sir Taemin, I will leave Sir Kibum in your care. I am pretty sure he will look
                        for me when he wakes up. Please make a good excuse in my behalf – he will understand.
                        Please tell him – my apologies of dozing him off too.

                        I will send the food right away so you can eat your dinner. This room is complete with all of
                        the facilities and amenities you need – its floor size is comparable to a mini-mansion. So
                        enjoy your stay and please take care of Bummie.

Minho:             Yes Mr. Taeyang, don’t worry we will take care of him. I am pretty sure – he will wake up 
                        tomorrow given his condition right now. Dont worry about us too, this place is wonderful
                        and there are a lot of fantastic things to get busy with thus we won't get bored so again,
                         please don’t worry. This place is really amazing.

Taemin:           Mr. Taeyang who owns this place – it is so huge…

Taeyang:        The one sleeping… but he doesn’t know it… It is a surprise gift for him by his grandfather.
                       His grandfather loves Bummie so much. When I am talking about the “gift” – I will tell you 
                       about it tomorrow coz you can’t see them clearly this time.

Minho and Taemin both reply…

 “OH MY GOSH!!!”

 and Minho further adds…

Minho:             The entire place for Bummie? But Mr. Taeyang, where exactly are we and the place –
                        what it’s called?

Taeyang:         Yes Mr. Minho – tomorrow you will know where we are. About this huge place - let me tell 
                        you – he is not going to be happy about it but will accept it regardless because he too
                        loves his grandfather so much – more than you’ll ever know that even Sir Heechul cannot
                        contest the relationship of the two but doesn’t mind it at all because the latter also love
                        Bummie’s grandfather so much – Sir Heechul looks at Bummie’s grandfather as his own 
                        Dad.

Taeminnie:      Mr. Taeyang, who’s Bummie’s grandfather?

Taeyang:         I apologize I cannot reveal the name hence it is forbidden…

Minho:             (still insisting) but in our family, does someone know?

Taeyang:         yes, your parents but even if they know and you ask them – you will not get an answer –
                        as they've sworn the secrecy to the grave as regards Bummie’s grandfather themselves.
                        So I hope you do understand why I cannot tell you…

                                             Perhaps someday when you are all old enough to handle things maturely – you will know…
                                             but right now, my advice is, please don’t bother to ask Bummie coz it will put him into a
                                             very awkward situation… could both of you do that? Don’t worry, you will know eventually –
                                             I believe Bummie’s grandfather will call upon both of you in his presence one of these
                                             days. I am pretty sure of that…

Again; the two nods in respect with what Taeyang had just told and requested from them – quietly watching Taeyang laying Bummie down on the bed. When Taeyang sees everything is settled and all right. He motions himself going out of the room and saying his goodnight to the two boys who are currently puzzled and bemused from the bits and pieces of information they have discovered about the secretive Bummie.

But reality calls when the buzzer sounds of the meal delivery. Minho approaches the door to let the service crew come in to arrange their food – then closes after the latter is done.

Minho:             (walking towards where Kibum is – holding the latter’s hand and squeezing it) Bummie you
                        are so unfair – I tell you everything about me but you still remain a mystery to me. I
                        understand your situation though… you simply don’t brag about who you are, you do, you 
                        have and your accomplishments…

                        (looks at Taemin’s confused face) Taeminnie… He is so great isn’t he? Can I ever be on
                        equal footing with him?

                        (Caresses Bummie’s face) Bummie… Bummie … (and hugs Bummie’s sleeping body)…

Taeminnie:      (speechless and amazed with his brother unspeakable ways, says) Minho hyung, I am
                        pretty sure Key hyung doesn’t speak lowly of you and me. I don’t even think that it’d enter
                        his mind to even compete with anyone - I mean it doesn’t make sense, for what reason? I
                        think the best we can do is just be by his side – quite honestly, we are the ones that need
                        his time the most. Minho hyung?

Minho:             (looks back at Taeminnie) yeah Taeminnie?

Taeminnie:      (holding his chin) I have this strange feeling about your behavior towards Key hyung? It
                        looks like an unspoken confession of a certain feeling – a desperate cry for more attention.
                        I have been observing you for quite awhile now – ever since the early days where I have
                        not met Key hyung personally. From the stories you have been telling me – looking at your
                        room full of Key hyung and yours’ pictures.  It has given me a huge impression of a
                        different bond – I am unsure right now but I have a hint…

Minho:             (puzzled at Taemin’s statement) I don’t understand what you are trying to imply…

Teaminnie:      (shaking his head) sometimes I would like to think; between us, who acts the eldest one.

Minho:             (surprised at Taemin’s statement – acting casually) I really don’t get what you are
                        trying to say…

Taeminnie:      (shakes head) Your actions are pretty obvious… I hope you will realize and understand
                        your feelings as soon as possible (walks towards Key’s bed and lies next to him)…

                      Minho:             (acting bewildered) aaiisshh Taeminnie, don’t lie too close – you will wake up Bummie…

Taeminnie:      (hugs the sleeping Kibum and hides his face on the latter’s neck) hhhmmmm… I don’t
                        care…(smelling Kibum) my, Key hyung does sure smell so so good – (teases Minho) 
                        wanna join me, Minho hyung?

Minho:             (puffs and also lie next to Kibum and whispers) yeah… he always smells so good all the
                        time…

Taeminnie:      (lifts his face to look at Minho) what did you just say hyung?

 Minho:             (hushes Taemin) sshhh Taeminnie – sleep (and kisses Kibum’s cheek) Good night
                         Bummie…
