Dragging your suitcase, you walk through the entrance of the arrivals area. You scan the many faces that were waiting to greet the people that had just landed in Incheon airport as you did. Not a single face seems to be familiar. Rolling your eyes behind your designer shades, you were about to fish out your phone when

“Yo Red! Over here!” a male with slits as eyes called out.

Now to anyone it might be offensive for someone so rude looking to be calling out on you in public like that but since you know the latter very well, you can’t help but to start grinning at the man. You waved him back as you quicken your steps to the end of the railings where he was waiting for you with open arms.

“Oof” he grunted as you practically threw yourself onto him “It’s great to see you too sis” he laughed patting your head.

“I thought you’d forget” You said punching his shoulder.

“Ow! Well if that’s the thanks I get, you better find another ride home" he turned.

“Arraso. Arraso. Thank you for picking me up Jooheon oppa. Oppa jjang!” You praised hugging his arm as you gave him thumbs up.

“Now that’s more like it. Come on. My car is just upfront” He beckoned as he drags your suitcase for you before wrapping his arm over your shoulders.

Just as Jooheon said, his dark green range rover was parked beside where the entrance was. You climbed shotgun as your older brother kept your suitcase in the back. Rubbing your palms for warmth you smiled as your brother finally got in and started the car.

“What? Isn’t it cold in New York?” he asked as he cranks up the heater for you.

“Nope. In fact it’s pretty warm there. Since you know, summer’s coming and all but hey I guess Seoul hadn’t gotten the memo yet” you joked keeping your shades away.

“Well I’m sure a lot of people would beg to differ” he laughed

“Yea people like you” you pointed out “I swear your obsession with the cold really has to tone down a little oppa” you laughed.

“At least it’s better than sweating under the scorching heat” he defended driving with only one arm.

“Touche’” you admitted “Oh! Here’s the strawberry champagne you told me to buy at the duty free shop at the airport oppa” you said taking the bottle from the paper bag you were holding.

“Nice” he dragged “You just saved my lil sis”

“And why is that” you asked curious

“Nothing. Man do I miss my baby sister or what” he cooed rubbing the top of your head.

“Oppa stop! You’re messing my hair” you whined slapping his hand away as you fix your messy bun back with the hair clip.

“Psshh I swear you’re becoming more and more of a diva ever since you left home” he teased

“Nuh uh. I’m still the same old JooHyun who loves her older brother very much” you batted your eyelashes to him prettily

“Yea right”

“Shut up. Now drive faster would ya. I can’t wait to see mom and dad. You don’t think they would be asleep by now would they?” you asked glancing at your phone to see that it was already a quarter pass eleven.

“Nope. They’re asleep alright” Jooheon informed.

“Aww really?”

“Yea cause I told them that your flight was delayed and probably arrive at 2 or 3 in the morning” he answered

“What? Why?" you gawped "My plane was never delayed”

“Exactly but mom and dad don’t need to know that” he said as he starts to pull into someone’s driveway.

“Oppa. Where the hell are we? This isn’t our apartment” you stated as you finally noticed your surroundings.

“You’ll see. Don’t forget the champagne” he prompt as he got out the car.

To say you were astonished was an understatement. You slowly stepped out of the car with the bottle in hand and followed your brother up the driveway to the door. As the both of you had gotten closer, you could hear some faint pop music playing in the house.

“Are we here for a party cause I am deadly under dress” you said pointing down your whole outfit consisting of a sleeveless black sweater, a silk patterned kimono like cardigan, a pair of black ripped skinny jeans and coloured gladiator sandals.

“You look fine. Here” your brother said as he took your hair clip off your head, releasing your red auburn waves to fall above your waist effortlessly “There. Better. Happy now?” he asked before turning to face the door to press the bell.

“No” you pouted combing your hair back with your fingers.

The door finally opens and a mop of platinum blonde greets them before a wide grin spreads across the owner’s face.

“Jooheon! Glad you could make it!” the latter greeted loudly as he pulled your brother for a hug.

Upon noticing your presence he nudged the latter.

“And you brought a lady friend. Not to mention a gorgeous one too” he grins “Hi. The name’s Minhyuk and welcome to my humble abode” he took your hand before placing a gentle kiss on it earning a giggle from you.

“Okay that’s enough birthday boy” Jooheon said pulling his friend back.

“Ooh over protective much. What? Don’t tell me you’re cheating on YooA cause she’s right inside and I know we’re all for bro’s before hos but she is my colleague and I don’t want you to be the cause of any pure awkwardness in my near future-”

“It’s Joohyun. You idiot. Remember?” Jooheon asked.

“Joohyun? As in Lee Joohyun? Oh my god! It is you!” Minhyuk exclaimed finally recognizing you as he pulled you into a hug before pulling back "You look absolutely stunning! I love your hair” he praised twirling a
