-11- Love ?

Starlight Moonlight : The Prequel & Sequel

 

After the incidence of Key and Amber in the game room last time, Amber can't stop from feeling weird whenever Key is around

her. Whenever she saw him, she hears his voice or even when people around her were talking about Key, she will had that same

* Thump .. Thump * feels in her heart and it also made her heart to skipped a beat.

 

 

At first she tried to denied it by saying, “ Maybe I had a disease. Arrythmia maybe ? “ Then shrugged that thought off her minds

since it was way too scared to face the fact if she was a sick person. Then after thinking thoroughly, no kidding, she was have

this thoughts in her minds for about a week or two and non-stop, she finally came to a conclusion. “ Am I in love with Key ? “

Which then she feels weird since she didn't feel creep out, freak out or even gross out while having that thought in her minds.

She really hope it was not true since Key is her frienemy, and we'll forever be a frienemy. So, she decided on seeking for some

advice from someone that she believed a pro in this matter.

 

 

 

It was a disease, maybe a mental problem ? “

She was surprised to hear that from Jinwoon.

“ Mwo ? “

“ Yeah .. think about it, why would she still feels annoyed with him if she's already in love with him ? That not makes sense

at all ! “

“ Jinwoonnie .. “

“ One more thing, why would she suddenly fell for her own enemy ? What did he do until she's able to fall for him ? Anyway,

who is that girl that you've been talking about ? “

“ Huh? Err .. just my old friend. “

“ Amby, I don't think we can help your friend with it. Jinwoon were talking nonsense the whole time and I'm not good either.

In fact we are only had about 2 months of dating experience. It's not enough to help your friend's love matter. “

“ Ok .. thanks unnie, oppa. “

She bowed to both Nicole and Jinwoon before leaved their class.

 

* Mental problem ? Is that possible ? *

 

Just when she thought she will had a peace day, “ What are you doing in my class ? “

“ I .. I .. was .. bye. “

Immediately she rushed out to avoid anymore awkwardness between Key and herself.

“ Stop it ! Stop it ! Please be a good heart for me. “

She keep on patting her chest in hope it will stop the heart to stop beating crazily whenever she met Key.

 

 

There is one more period left before the school ends.

“ Amber, I saw you nearby one orphanage last time. What are you doing there ? “ Hyuna asked her.

“ Owh .. I just pay a visit that's all. “

“ She's so sweet right ? “

Zico patted her back proudly.

“ You should meet the owner of the orphanage, they are more sweeter than me. “

Amber said in chuckled but then it made her to remembered about something.

“ The owner ? Sunny unnie and Sungmin oppa. Yes ! “

Suddenly she made a victory pose that shocked her friends.

“ Are you over dosage or something ? “

Myungsoo asked her, still looking at her weirdly.

“ Nope. Just happy that I find some solution to my problem. “ She shows a peace sign to him.

“ Check her bag So Hee, I'm afraid she's hiding a drug or something in there. “

Dongjun always love to and never feels tired of getting a smack from Amber which he got one after that.

“ Haha .. just joking. “

Friday Night,

Light House Orphanage

 

 

So, that's what been bothering you all these weeks ? “

She just nodded to Sungmin.

“ I was confused. Some says I had a mental problem. “

She heard a chuckled from both of them.

“ Oppa ! Unnie ! I'm serious ! “

“ We're too but that was too funny. “

“ Help me with this. My friend says I should find someone who had a lot of experience, and I'm sure you guys are the one since

you guys had been married for almost 2 years now. “

“ Haha .. alright. “

“ So, what do you think about my problem ? “

“ I say it's love. What do you think yeobeo ? “

“ Love it is. No doubt at all. “

“ Aish ! I knew it. Should I be happy or sad with it ? “

Amber pouted just as she think about that.

“ He doesn't seems like a bad guy to me. “

“ Unnie, seriously, have I ever talks good about him ? No right ? All I says were about both of us fighting with each other. And

that doesn't shows a good sign to me. “

“ Yeah .. you guys fights but I don't sense any hate in between. “

“ From your story, he seems to cared for you too even if it's only little bit, that was good enough to create a love between you

two. “

Amber was so amazed with Sungmin's words.

“ But, I still can't believe this, I mean I don't even know when did I had this feelings and what did made me to fall for him. I don't

have any clue with these at all. It's just too sudden. “

“ I'm sure you heard this somewhere but sometimes we don't need a reason to love someone. It's true Amber, it's really hard to

understand love but all that we need to do is to just enjoy it and believe me, we will be happy after that since love grows day by

day. “

Sunny explained which once again made Amber to amazed.

“ Wow ! You guys looks like a master of Love. Actually, that was more than enough for a 17 years old, high student like me

to hear. “

They just laughed at Amber's sudden statements.

Amber then took a moment to think about her problem again.

“ I must learn how to control my self in front of him since I'm a beginner in this love matters. “

“ Why don't you just tell him about your feelings. “

“ Uh-Uh .. no way. Not yet. I'm not ready. In fact I'm sure he will just laugh at me later on. Not gonna take that risk unnie. “

“ Alright. Just let me know if you need more advice or anything from me. “

“ Yeobeo, I had an idea. “

Both Sunny and Amber looked at Sungmin curiously.

“ Why don't we charge her whenever she seek for an advice. We will become a lot richer since I know she will had a lot in her

minds later on. How's that ? Brilliant isn't it ? “

“ OPPA !! HOW COULD YOU ! “

Sunny and Sungmin were having fun with teasing Amber.

 

 

 

Bye .. bye .. I will come visit you guys again when I'm free ok ? “

“ Dae. “

“ Be a good kid ok ? Don't cause any trouble to Sungmin appa and Sunny umma. Arasso ? “

“ Dae Amber unnie. Bye. “

 

 

Amber feels really glad that now the kids started to calls her as unnie or noona and not oppa or hyung anymore. Her frequent

visits to that orphanage really help her with that a lot.

 

 

The Light House Orphanage is the place where all the kids that Amber used to treat them an ice cream each a year ago lived.

Amber gets curious after the meeting of her and those kids so at the end, one day, she decided to pay a visit and give some help

for the orphans. She ended up get used to visit to that place whenever she gets the time and become closer to the owner of the

place itself, which is Sungmin and Sunny. Both of them treats Amber like their own dongsaeng and that's made Amber to feel

even more happier.

 

 

The girls only know about it recently and Amber just asked them to keep it for themselves since she thought it's not important

until everybody has to know about it.

 

 

“ Be careful Amber. “

Sunny bid goodbye to her who's all ready on her bike.

“ Ok. Thanks unnie, oppa for today. Love you guys. Bye. “

Key's POV

 

 

So this is where she's always been to till late night then she go back home. “

 

I just stay for a while after Amber left and just observed the place.

It looks cozy and classy at the same time.

 

“ Aish ! She just made me worried for nothing. “ I shook my head.

I took the last glance at the orphanage before drove away from that place.

“ Another girly sides of Amber Liu has been discovered by me. How great I am ! Hehe. “

 

 

This just made me to recalled back the time when I saw Amber did a good deeds to the kids by treating them an ice cream each.

At that time, both of us still doesn't know each other yet but when we do, it turned out to be in this kind of relationship. This

unexplainable type of relationship.

 

 

I drove my car until suddenly my eyes caught Amber's bike at the side walk.

“ Where is she ? “

I wandered and found her at the ice cream stall.

“ This girl has love relationship to ice cream I guess. One day, I will let her boyfriend to know about it and make sure that he

able to control her from eating too many of it. “

It's so funny to think that someday Amber will be dating someone.

I wonder who is that unlucky guy.

 

 

[ Flashback ]

 

I was standing at the balcony while waiting for Onew hyung to prepare the dinner for us when suddenly I saw Amber walked

out from her house, all dressed up. She looks like was ready to go to somewhere. I noticed she had a backpack with her.

 

 

“ Where did she planned to go actually ? “

 

I just noticed that whenever Friday or weekends comes, Amber will always missed in action. She don't have her dinner with us

and whenever I asked the girls, they just shook their head. I mean, don't they worry about her ? She will go out after school and

went back home at late night. I'm getting suspicious over her day by day. I even thought that she's going to someplace that she's

not supposed to be there like clubs and places like that.

 

 

“ This girl just made me lost my appetite right away. “

 

I dashed towards my room and took my jacket, heading down towards my car after that leaving all the boys dumbfounded.

I noticed that she's already gone so quickly I get into my car and drove away, hoping that I managed to follow her.

 

 

I was lucky enough when I found her still stuck at the traffic light and made sure not to let her notice my presence. I keep on

following her until she stops in front of a big building, before went inside. I bet this is the place that she's always been to.

 

“ Huh ? Light House Orphanage ? “

 

I parks the car not far from the building and walked out when I saw she already disappears from my sight. I was stood there.

Wander my eyes around the area and I must say, it pretty big and looks nice from outside.

 

“ Excuse me, may I help you sir ? “

I was startled when suddenly a guard approached me.

“ Err .. The girl that ride a super bike just now, is she always come here ? “

“ Owh .. By any chance, do you know her ? “

He asked me back, well, we can't just give any info to the stranger right ?

“ Well, yeah. She's my schoolmates. I happen to saw her heading towards this place. “

“ Owh .. Ms Liu always come here to visit the children if she had a free time. But mostly she will come on Friday or Saturday. “

“ I see .. hmm, can I have a look at this place ? I'm thinking of meeting her after this. “

He just nodded and let me in.

 

 

I wandered around the place.

“ This place is so nice. “

 

I walked passed by a fountain and noticed Amber through the window, so immediately I hide myself. I took a peek at her. She

was playing with the children with a guy next to her. Not long after that, I saw a really cute woman approaching them with

two glasses of drink on both of her hands. Amber were saying something to the kids before all of them runs towards one place

which I guess it's their dining room.

 

Speaking of that, “ I'm hungry ! “

I just quietly leaved the place when I'm sure enough that nothing bad are gonna happen to Amber in this place.

“ Thank you so much. “ I bowed to the guard.

“ You're welcome. “

 

 

Actually, I just leaved for a dinner and comeback to that place when I'm done since my intuition told me that she's still in that

building and I was right. So, I just waited for her outside.

 

[ End Of Flashback ]

 

 

 

Why did she always made me crave for that whenever I saw her eating it ? “

I just decides to have one for myself.

“ One strawberry please. “

 

 

I took a glance at Amber who's still not aware of me standing at her side since she was so into her ice cream. Then I walked and

stand right in front of her which then made her to looked at me with her widened eyes and unfortunately made her dropped her

ice cream, maybe too shocked seeing me with her.

 

 

“ K-Key ? “

“ You just dropped your ice cream. “

“ Huh ?! Kyaa !!! My Ice Cream !! “

She's whines like a little kid looking at her ice cream, that was on the floor.

“ Buy me another one. “

“ Me ? Why should I ? “

“ You cause me to dropped it. “

“ Hello, I didn't do anything. I just stood here, that's all. “

“ Exactly. You made me shocked by your sudden appearance in front of me. “

 

I just rolled my eyes then walked towards the ice cream ajusshi to make the payment, and just headed my way to the car,

ignored whatever that Amber whines at me.

 

End Of Key's POV

 

 

 

I can't believe this. He leaved just like that ? “

“ What about my ice cream ? Kim Kibum !! “

“ Excuse me, here you go. Your ice cream. “

“ Huh ? But .. I didn't order anything just now. “

The ice cream ajusshi handed Amber a cup which had two scoops of ice cream in it.

“ That boy just now, he told me to give you this. Strawberry and vanilla caramel. He even pays for you. “

“ Mwo ? He .. he did that ? “

The ajusshi just nodded at her.

Amber was shocked with Key being so nice to her today but she just shrugged that thought off her minds first so that she can

enjoy her ice cream peacefully.

f(x)'s House

 

 

Owh, you girls are still awake ? “

Amber asked as soon as she spotted the maknae, the virtual maknae and Luna at the living room.

“ Hehe .. we decides to watch this. “ Krystal shows a cd to Amber.

“ Ghost ?? “

Amber looked at the girls with a ' Are-you-serious-about-this ? ' looks.

“ They are. “

She was startled when a hand tapped on her shoulder and found out it was Victoria.

“ So, I need you to stay with them. “

“ Huh ? Mwo ? I'm too tired unnie. “

“ Oh, please Amber. I really .. really need a good sleep tonight because I had to attend a charity project for Vogue tomorrow. You

know how they will act whenever they watch horror movie right ? “

“ But .. “

“ Besides, you don't have school for tomorrow. “

“ Fine, I'll change my cloth first. “

“ Thanks, night girls. “

 

 

Amber went downstairs when she finished with her quick warm shower,

“ You girls must be crazy to watch horror movie at this hour. “

She uttered as she realized the time already shown 12.30 am.

“ Maybe, here, we save the best spot for you. “

 

Sulli pulled her towards her side with Luna at her right and Krystal at Sulli's left. Amber chuckled when she saw blankets and

plush toys were all over their living room.

 

“ You girls did prepared well this time. “

“ Let's watch it. “

Luna clicked on the play button on controller before quickly cling on Amber's hand.

“ The movie not even start yet Luna. “

Luna just smiled at Amber.

 

 

Amber keep on yawning for countless time, first because she really did feels tired and second, the movie were not even that scary

to watched but sure she will sometime startled when there's a sudden appearance from the ghost, well, who didn't right ? But

seems like the girls were enjoying it. Yeah right, Sulli already had her eyes closed with her plush toy while Luna were non-stop

screaming because of the story, but the weird thing is, she never take her eyes away from the TV although she did feels scared

and Krystal ? She dozed off already, right after 15 minutes the movie starts because she's kinda feel tired from the game that she

plays with Minho and Onew that evening.

 

 

So what's the purpose of Victoria assigned Amber to accompany them tonight even though she knows that Amber don't have

the mood ? It's because of one incidence that happen few months ago where Krystal, Sulli and Luna watched a horror movie by

themselves, without Amber or Victoria with them. They were screaming like a real ghost appears in front of them and end up

waking up Victoria and Amber from their sleep. They keep on knocking the door until both of them woke up. So Victoria just

want Amber to make sure that the three of them not over reacted while watching the movie.

 

 

30 minutes after that Amber realized that the atmosphere become too silent, and found out that the three of them already in

their dreamland.

 

“ Aish ! Who want to watch this movie at the first place ? “

 

She heaved a big sighed before tucked the blanket for Sulli, adjusting Luna's head on the pillow and put all the dolls next to

Krystal. She just leaved all three of them to sleep on the carpet since it was too bothersome to wake each of them up.

 

 

Because of that three girls, Amber didn't seems like she can even close her eyes. Her body feels so fresh after that so she walked

towards the kitchen and have a nice warm milk. She took the drink with her and headed outside of the house, to the small

garden at their yard. She sat herself on the bench and just wandered around the garden.

 

“ Hmm .. suddenly I miss Jonghyun oppa. It must be really great if he's here with me right now. At least, maybe, he can help me

with my love matter. “

 

She keep on having Key in her mind from the time she stepped into the house that night. And there's one time, she's in

hallucination and thought that Sulli is Key. She still wonder why would she had those feelings to Key, and not to somebody else.

She then remembered back her moment with Key in the game room the other day, the moment that she consider as an

embarrassing one but at least it was not as embarrassing as what she faced a year ago on their second meeting. She chuckled

when she finally figure out the real reason of her being so furious at Key when she thought of TaeKey's moment on that night.

 

 

“ I'm not mad because they did something funny but I am mad because the one that I love were being so lovely with someone

else, and shockingly, it was a guy. “

 

“ Now I know how Krys felt whenever she saw Minho oppa acted so friendly with other girl. But in my case unfortunately it was

a guy ... haha .. that was so ridiculous. I'm jealous of Taemin ? Thank God that nothing happen between them. “

 

 

After that, bit by bit her memories with Key came in her minds and it made her to smiles with the fact that she likes her one and

only annoying buddy ? Friend ? Enemy ? She don't even know which one suits Key the best but all that she know is she was

definitely, 100% sure that she was in love with him.

 

“ Even if I'm in love, did I worth to be loved by a guy ? Look at me .. I'm not even close to any guy's ideal girl. “

She started to feels her self esteem lowered with the fact that she looks boyish.

 

“ But he acts so nice towards me these days, it that a good sign for me ? “

 

“ Maybe, I took it too seriously. “

 

 

 

Next Morning

 

 

The gang decides to hang out at the music room after school since Luna had to do her practice for her up coming performance

for the school event. Just with the thought that Key also are gonna be there makes Amber to feel really anxious but she will try

her best not to show it to him or even her friends since she don't want anybody to suspect anything with her sudden changes in

behavior whenever she's with Key.

 

 

Amber just sat at the corner with a guitar on her hand , and obviously she chooses that spot to avoid Key. After awhile, Taemin

joined her with Sulli at his side.

 

“ Noona, can you take over my job ? “

Taemin asked annoyingly as he glance at Sulli.

“ Nope. She talks too much. “

“ See Minnie, only you can bare with me .. hehe, so what's next ? “

Sulli was so excited waiting for next guitar lesson from Taemin while Amber just silently chuckling at Taemin who looks like will

pass out in any time.

“ Owh, Taem. I wanna join your class. “

Key suddenly blurted out which made Amber startled looking at him.

* Since when he's here ? *

“ Uh-uh ! I had enough with this Giant Baby, I don't think I can handle a Diva now. “

That made Amber to laughed at him, at least it made her to forget about her nervousness for awhile.

“ Why is everybody rejects me today ? What should I do then ? Minho already reserved the drum set for his Krys. “

“ Amber unnie is free at the moment. “

Sulli uttered which made Amber to looked at her with her wide eyes.

“ Why me ? “

“ That's not a bad idea since the Almighty Key really bored today. “

Key immediately took his seat in front of Amber and just stared at her face.

“ What ? “

“ Play some for me. “ He pointed at the guitar.

“ Like I will do that for you. “

She retorted back and she's really proud of herself because of that since she managed to acts like the usual Amber Liu in front

of him.

“ Then, teach me to play that. “

“ Seriously, I won't waste my energy for you. “

Even it's hurt, she still had no choice but to acts annoyingly to him since two of her dongsaeng were nearby, watching them.

Key then sat closer to Amber, “ I won't move if you not start with the lesson. So, start. “

“ You're being annoying again. “

“ Like you don't get used to it. I said start. “

“ Fine, whatever ! Where's you guitar ? How will you learn if you just sit there and do nothing ? “

 

 

With that Key rushed towards Minho where he found another guitar next to him and brought it along with him. Key give a

thumb up indicate that he's ready. Amber took a deep breath before proceeded with plucking the guitar.

 

“ That was G chord. “

Key observed her fingers and placed his fingers on the fret just like what she did.

“ No .. no, that's wrong. Here, let me help you. “

She adjusted his fingers and placed it on the right fret.

* I'm touching his fingers .. hihi. *

She can't help but to smile at it.

“ Try to play each string, starting with the sixth string, and one at a time. “

He did as been told and had this amazed expression on his face once he'd done with it.

“ Woah ! You hear that ? It was awesome.. haha. As expected I'm good in anything. “

Amber tried her best to hold her laughter since she finds it funny for Key to be proud at those little thing that he did.

“ Yeah, yeah ! Whatever ! What's to be proud of when you only play one note. “

She rolled her eyes just to makes her acting more realistic.

“ No talking. Next chord please. “

They spend their time together for that guitar lesson which really made Amber to feel happy inside.
