enjoy and welcome to the story to the new subscribers.
The intro to Miracle in December blasted through a phone grasped loosely by a feminine hand under the pillow her head was laid on. Sur woke up with a start, taking a moment to fully come to before she hastily took her phone and looked at the caller ID. She couldn’t help the disappointment when she realised the phone call was not from her Bubbles but rather from BoYoung unnie.
“Unnie? Hello?” Sur’s voice surely sounded raspy like someone who had been sleeping.
“Oh? Did I wake you up?”
“Yes unnie, you did that.”
“Sorry sorry.” She apologised cutely.
“It’s alright. You didn’t know.”
“Where are you now?
“I’m at home. Why?”
“Oh. We are about to leave from work so wanted to hear if you’d like us to come and pick you up wherever you are.”
“Thank you. I’m home already and I will start on dinner. Is it okay if we have an English supper tonight?”
“Yes please. Was wondering when you’d actually do something in that house.”
Sur just laughed at BoYoung and said goodbye.
Sur went downstairs and tried to think up something to cook for dinner. She realised there weren’t enough ingredients so she went out to buy a few groceries at the nearest grocery store, just a 20 minutes walking distance away. Throughout the whole distance to and fro, her mind was completely occupied with Baekhyun. She wondered how he felt, what he was thinking, what he was doing. She reached a decision not to tell anyone about what had happened.
As she thought about the events of the previous night, a sudden thought came to her. They had not used protection! She hastily looked up her period diary in her phone to check if she had passed her ovulation day. She was a bit relieved that her ovulation day was the next day so she hurried to the nearest pharmacy and purchased a morning after pill which she took immediately without minding the stare from the dispensing technician there.
When she got home, she busied herself with getting dinner ready. Soon enough, the family of three came bursting into the house with BoYoung being the most hyper one. She jumped onto Sur’s back as she welcomed her back home. The other two gave her hugs and expressed happiness that she was back.
“What are we cooking?” BoYoung snooped trying to see into the pot Sur was stirring.
“Unnie, you should go freshen up and see for yourself on the dinner table. Your energy amazes me, it’s like you weren’t at work the whole day.”
“Yah! I’m just happy my dongsaengie is home safe and sound. But you’re right, I’ll go and have my shower. Will be back in ten.”
Sur laughed as she watched BoYoung run up the stairs, almost tripping on the second one. She wished she had her carefree energy too.
Soon enough it was supper time and by the time the trio finished freshening up, Sur had already set the table. Dinner was eaten over small chit chat. Of course the trio asked her about where she had been and Sur had expected this so she answered flawlessly as she had prepared in advance.
“Remember that EXO concert we went to? Well, there is this guy I went to high school with that I met there and we exchanged numbers. He has been working here for ages and he is as good as Korean. He has a lot of Korean friends too. So I went over to his house yesterday and they had a party there. It was quite fun and I just figured I might as well spend the night.”
The others nodded in understanding and continued to ask about the party and details of this guy. The women listening in seemed convinced by the lies but JoongKi was quite sceptical about this information. He decided to confront her about it at a later and private time.

In another household, Baekhyun was deeply troubled about what he had done. He pondered on whether to tell Taeyeon about it. He wondered if he should try and just keep in touch with Sur. He knew though that at the moment, he did miss Sur but he didn’t want to talk to either of the two women in his life now. After getting a painkiller to relieve the headache he got from over thinking, he decided to call his trusted hyung and ask for advice.
“Baekhyun-ah…hello?
“Hyung…” Somehow Baekhyun felt like breaking down and choked on his words without having said much.
“Baekhyun? What’s wrong? Are you okay? Did something happen?”
Baekhyun couldn’t help but chuckle at his over worrying hyung. Suho was always the most concerned and most loving of everyone in the group. “Hyung, I screwed up. I need to talk to you.”
“Okay. Where are you now? I’ll come to you.”
“I’m at home and mum is out so you can come. Please?”
“Okay okay. I’ll come there around 8.30? I have something I need to do before the sun sets then I’ll head over there.”
“Alright, thank you hyung.”
As soon as he could, Suho rushed to Baekhyun’s house. They lived quite a distance from each other so it took him a while to get there but he knew Baekhyun needed him. He had heard how he choked when he answered the phone, Baekhyun was usually the cheerful and playful one unlike he had sounded today. He literally ran up to the door after parking the car where Baekhyun was waiting to receive him. The two mates hugged and Suho began his motherly check up, looking everywhere and physically examining his body if he was well. He saw a red-purplish mark on the upper left side of his neck and
