Sitting on top of a wooden branch, Junghee watches the sky shifting into the dark, changing its shades of amber yellow & orange into a light tangerine.  The light had diminished as the gleaming moon and stars appear in the sky, footsteps, taking their time walking towards her halting at the body of the tree.  They swiftly move to the front, the words flow out in the air while Sungmin stands below, embracing his back on the pith of the tree.

“How did I know you’ll be here.” A small smile appeared on her face as she lowers her head downward.  “When you were a child, you would be nowhere been found and your aunt and I would go crazy to just to find you, realizing you were safe and sound sitting in a tree, gazing at the moon.” Junghee chuckles.

“Strangely it keeps me calm.”

“Cloud soft.” Youngsik joins in the taunting. Everybody laughs while Sungmin unamused expression stayed still.

“Alright, alright.” Sungmin and Junghee dropped down from the tree landing so very graceful, light a feather unlike a normal human.  They walked out front to the whole group, she stands here
