Six months after their last separation.

Six months after their first official break-up.

That strangely was the best separation they had since their relationship changed.

And prom was finally there.

“Joo.... do not fidgeting.”

“Uh, Unnie, I don’t know if I should wear this.”

Yuri shook her head while trying to hold the anxious girl down.

“You know what, you’ve become even more nervous than me on my wedding day.”

Joohyun suddenly stopped fidgeting.

“I am sorry, Unnie.”

Yuri smiled while smoothen the dress once more.

“He would be here. He has promised right?”

Joohyun nodded.

“He has. But Unnie, the weather forecast in Seoul is predicted a rain storm today.”

“You should stop reading that stupid forecast.”

Joohyun shrugged.

“Yoona sent it to me this morning. “

“Ah, yes, of course. Have they finally together?”

Joohyun shook her head.

“Not that I know.”

“Why? He likes her. That was so obvious.”

Yuri tied her dongsaeng hair into a simple bun.

“She is too cautious. You know...”

“Her Umma?”

Joohyun nodded sadly.

“She should move forward with her life. No one should be suffered because someone else’s mistake or faith.”

Yuri twirled Joohyun around.

“Ah, you’re done. I think Umma would be proud.”

Yuri softly dragged her to the mirror.

“You’re beautiful, Joo.”

She put her head into her dongsaeng’s shoulder.

“Thanks, Unnie!”

Joohyun threw herself into her Unnie, held into her waist tightly.

“Hey, don’t cry! You’ll smudge the mascara.”

Joohyun kissed Yuri’s cheek.

“You’re the best, Unnie! I am so lucky to have you.”

Yuri laughed while brushing her stomach.

“Wait until this one gets into his or her third months. Umma said no one would like a three-months pregnant woman’s rollercoaster of emotions.”

Joohyun bowed and put her head into her Unnie’s belly.

“I don’t think so. This little one is yours, so he or she must be adorable.”

“Let’s pray that what will happen.”

Jongwoon, leaned to the door, chuckled upon hearing the exchange between the two sisters.

“Oppa!”

His wife yelped and walked toward him.

“Love you too, beautiful!”

He kissed her lightly and then winked to his sister-in –law who was just standing there with blushing cheeks.

“But she’s right, you’re beautiful.” Then he added, “Kyu would be missing a lot if he dares not to come tonight.”

Joohyun bowed her head sadly.

“He hasn’t called.”

“He will. There was a heavy rain in Seoul this morning, many flights were delayed, but this is Kyu, if he said he comes, he comes.”

Yuri pulled her lightly to the door.

“Uh, come on! General Umma would like to see you, I’ll bet.”

The two sisters laughed and walked downstairs where her parents and Minho, who had volunteered himself to be crushed between his two best friends, was waiting.

“So, have you answered him?”

“Who?’
