(A/N: I'll be changing something in the way I write my story. As you can see I usually uses Filipino convo when it comes to flashbacks. Well, it's really kind of hard for me to right it in Filipino then translate it in English. It consumes too much time. So what I'm going to do is I'll be using italized-underline format to indicate that the conversation is in Filipino. I'll still be using some Filipino words though. But I will limit it to maybe 1 word or 2 words. Depending on the story. Then I will still be using italized-bold format if the convo is in English. ^^ Now back to the story.)

"Ma, I have a question. Why does they call Jiyong, 'jiyong-ah"?

"Ahh..that's the way Koreans call someone so dear to them or someone close to them. It's like a nickname. Just look at how they call your "ate" Dami. They call her Dami-yah. Even you, you were called Kath-ya"

"It's okay with us. But with Jiyong, it sounds like a girl's name when they put '-ah' after his name."

Kath's mother just laughed at her young daughter's curiosity and reasoning. She can't believe that her little girl had already observed too much differences in just two days of being together with her husband's Korean friends. Kath was bombarding her lots of question about them.

"And mama, what does noona means? I heard Jiyong calling "ate" Dami, noona? Then I also noticed that they call there mama and papa, eomma and appa. Is it the Korean words for mama and papa? Also, they called you "imo" and they called papa "samcheon". What does it mean?

Aha. My little princess, you're asking your mama lots of questions. Really your curiosity is never ending"

It was Kath's father. 

"You see your mama looks like corpse already. She is so pale. You know why?"

Kath shook her head and her father whispered, "Because she don't know the answer"

Kath laughs as her mother punched her father in the arms. She knew that her papa was teasing her mother. Her father then explained and answered her questions. They thought she will stopped with those questions, but Kath continued to asked questions after questions. Until, to her parents delight, she fell asleep.

-Then the scene changes-

She was playing on the streets with the other children in their neigborhood when the Kwon family arrives. Kath saw them and inmediately run towards them.

"Annyeonghaseyo, imo, samcheon, Dami-eonnie, Jiyongie"

All of them was stunned with the greetings of Kath.

"Aigoo, Kath-yah. Did your father taught you that?" Mrs. Kwon asked while she was smiling at her.

Kath nodded at them.

"But you know I will be more happy if you will call me eomma"

Kath pouted and looked up as if she's thinking about it. Mr. and Mrs. Kwon found her expressions so cute. Then she smiled at them, "Okay. Then I can call samcheon "abeoji" as well?"

She was looking at Mr. Kwon and Mrs. Kwon back and forth, waiting for an answer. Until they both smiled widely and nodded at her.

"Of course, I would actually prefer you to call me abeoji"

Unknown to them, the youngest among the Kwon sibling were glaring at her. Jiyong felt like his parents prefers Kath more than him. And it also didn't helped that they were the same age. Now, he knew why he felt annoyed the first time he met her. Because of this. It was a premonition. He admits, at first when he saw her peeked at the door, he found her pretty. But because of her comment about his name, he found her annoying. Starting from that moment, he can't helped but be annoyed in everything that she was doing. Then this, the attention of his parents were inclined to her. Even when they're at their hotel, his parents was talking about her.

"Yongie!!! HELLO!!!! EARTH TO Yongie!!!"

Jiyong stops at whatever he was thinking. He blinked several times when he saw how near Kath's face on him. He suddenly moves back.

"FINALLY!!" Kath exclaimed when Jiyong finally responds to her call.

"What do you want?!" he yelled in an irritated voice. He saw Kath's eyes and mouth grew bigger. Then his head flew forward. His sister slapped him at the back of his head.

"Awww....noona" Jiyong whined and when he looks at his sister, she was glaring at him.

"What? You little pabo. Why did you yell at her? She was just calling you. You little..." She was about to slap his head again. But...

"Eonnie!!! Please stop. How can Yongie play with us if he is hurt" Kath interrupted Dami.

"Yongie?! Who told you to call me Yongie? And who told you I'm going to play with you?!" Jiyong said while massaging the back of his head.

Upon hearing it, Kath approaches Jiyong. She puts both of her hands on her waist and squinted her eyes.

"Me!! I will call you Jiyongie or Yongie because I want to. And you are going to play with us. But if you really want eonnie to slapped you again then okay, I won't asked you anymore" she said smugly.

Then she walked back to her playmates. But before she reached her playmates, Jiyong grabs her shoulder. She looks back at him and Jiyong told her he will play with them. Kath smiled triumphantly and Kwon Dami winks at her.

Jiyong knew that Kath and her sister collaborated. He was thinking of ways on how to get revenge on her. He also doesn't like the nickname that she created for him.

As they were playing, there were several times that Kath stumbled down. At first, she didn't mind it. But when she stumbled down again, she saw Jiyong intentionally tripped her. Actually, she knew that he was the cause of her frequent tripping. She just let him since it wasn't that strong. But this time, it was so strong. She got so mad now because it is already too much. As much as she want to confront him she can't. She can't move her legs. Because of frequent bumping of her knees on the road, the bruises that she got, got worst. It was also bleeding. She glared at Jiyong but the latter was just smirking at her. Kath was so mad and at the same time she felt hurt. Not just physically but also emotionally. Her tears fall down without her knowing while she and Jiyong were looking at each other.

Jiyong was standing outside the studio where Kath is. He was watching her since morning without her noticing. He's waiting for a chance to talked to her. They didn't had a chance to talked after their video call with Kath's mother 2 days ago. He was holding two hot drinks, one for her and the other one was for him. He peeked on the door first to checked if she's busy or not. Unfortunately, he found her sleeping. Her head was lying on the table.

He still went inside and put the drinks on top of the table. He looks for something to cover her. He saw the vetements jacket that he gave to her hanging on the empty chair. He gets the jacket and put it on her. He sat down on the empty chair and just stare at her. He felt glad that she was still using the jacket although she already knew that it came from him. Kath's eyebrows furrowed and Jiyong saw it. He straightened her brows with his fingers, "Are you dreaming?" then he put the strands of her hair at the back of her ears.

Jiyong decided to leave and just come back later. He was about to stand up from his seat when he heard Kath calling him.

"Jiyongie....yongie"

He looks back at Kath but she was still sleeping. He smiled thinking that she was dreaming of him. Then he saw a tear falls down from her left eye. He wipes the tear with his hands. Now he's wondering what was she dreaming about. Tears keep on falling in her eyes and Jiyong continously wiped it.

He remembered the first time he saw Kath cried. It was his fault then. He can still remembered clearly, the way Kath glared at him and how she looks like when she was crying. He had felt guilty about it but at that same time he felt glad it did happened. Because of that, they've become close friends and seeing her cries triggered something in him.

Unknown to Jiyong, Kath is slowly opening her eyes. She's waking up. When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was Jiyong. Kath was surprised to see Jiyong there.

"Jiyongie?!"

Jiyong was interrupted on his thoughts and he was stunned by the name that Kath used to call him. At the same time, Kath was also surprised at herself for blurting out that name. Thus, she immediately covered with both of her hands. Jiyong grinned because of Kath's reaction.

"What are you doing? Why are you covering your mouth?" Jiyong asked.

"It is to prevent my mouth from saying something..." Kath paused as she can't think of an appropiate word to used.
