Took an Oath - I’mma stick it out to the end

*Phone call*

"Yoboseyo"

"Taetae! Hahs, as promised. I've returned your call"
"Why are you looking for me?"

"Was looking for initially 'cause you left the hospital"
"But for now, i just wanna listen to your angelic voice!"
"keke"

"You're such a dork Taetae!" giggled Jesica

"Im always a dork when im with you"
"Im forever Sica's dorky Taetae!"

"AwWwWw.. "
"Didnt know you could come up with such cheesy lines Taetae!"
"im getting goosebumps already!" laughed Jessica

"Really? You call that cheesy?"
"I've got even more!" joked Taeyeon
"Its just up to me when to say it to you"

"Hahas"
"By the way, how's your halraeborji?"
"Still mad?"

"Yeah.. I guess so"
"Really dont know whats going on in his mind"

"Hahas, take it easy Taetae"
"One step at a time"
"By the way, got to go"
"Im going to go for a meeting with an America company"
"Bye & i love you"

"Thats fast!"
"Take care, bye & i love you too"

*End of phone call*

During the meeting with the Amercia company
[ENGLISH CONVERSATION]

"Hi Mr.Brown, welcome to the Jung's Holdings" Jessica said while stretching out her arms for a handshake

"Thanks for your invitation, Ms.Jung"
"We're honoured to be here and working with you" replied Mr.Brown
"And i do realise that you speak great English despite the fact that you're a Korean"

"Its our pleasure to have you here Mr.Brown"
"And if you dont mind, please just address me as Jessica will do"
"Thanks for your compliment, I actually grew up in the states when i was younger"
"Thats where i learnt my English"

"Oh, thats cool"

"Now if you allow Mr.Brown, we'll get the meeting started?"

"Oh sure sure. Go ahead"

[End of ENGLISH CONVERSATION]

Then, everyone took theirs seats in the meeting room and started discussing about their project.
After discussing about the expansion, plannings were made together with decisions on how to carry out the whole project.
One of the plans requires Jessica to stay in America for a period of time to work on their collaboration on expanding the Jung's Holdings with the Americans at America.
Jessica has to travel to America for a few months to get things going before she can pass it over to the workers there to handle the business but Jessica have yet to appoint or announce who will be the one to take care of the business in America.
Putting this aside, Jessica ended their first meeting after getting everything planned out.
Now all she needs to do is to just follow the plannings and get a few people she trust to work there for her.
The date's also been decided.
The date where Jessica have to leave for America.
Its just a week away before she have to leave for America.

Talking about America, she remembered someone really important to her.

*Phone call*
[ENGLISH CONVERSATION]

"Hello?"

"Helloooo. Did you miss me?"

"HAHA. Its you Jessica!"
"Why the sudden call?"

"Cant i call you without any reason but just wanna have a chat with you?"
"Cant i? Cant i? Cant i?" giggled Jessica

"Of course you can!"
"So whats up Jessica?!"

"Hahas, Tiff, actually im going to America in a weeks time"
"I was wondering if you're gonna let me stay in your house this time round like i did when you came to Korea!"
"Im not sure if Krystal's coming, but im going over there for some work purposes!"

"REALLY?! You're coming over to America?!"
"Thats gonna be fun! And i'll be more than willing to let you stay in my house!"
"Be it with our without Krystal!"

"Great!"
"Then i'll tell Krystal later when i get home!"
"See ya soon Tiff~"

"See ya soon Jessica!"

*End of phone call*
[End of ENGLISH CONVERSATION]

Jessica then headed back home after all the meetings.
On her way home,

*Phone call*

"Yoboseyo"

"Taetae, i've got something to tell you"
"Its gonna sound like a bad news to you.."

"Well? its for me to determine okay"
"Not you"

"..."

"im waiting..?"

"Here's it"
"I'll have to leave for America for work purposes in a weeks time and wont be back after at least 2months"

"..."
"Okay.."

"You okay Taetae?"

"..."
"I guess so.."
"But i think im gonna miss you much Sica"
"Can you just like not leave?.."

"I cant Taetae, i have to handle it myself"
"Its about my business expansion"
"I have to handle it myself, go through everything myself so that there wont be any mistakes"
"im sorry taetae"
"But i promise i'll call everyday whenever im free okay?"

"I guess its a no choice thing?"
"Okay then.."
"But can i spend the rest of the week with you before you leave for America?"

"Of course you can!"
"Gotta go, im reaching home!"
"Have to speak to Krystal about this too!"
"See ya tomorrow!"

"See ya Sica"
"I love you"

"I love you too"

*Ends phone call*

Jungs mansion

"Krystal, i've got something to tell & ask you"

Jessica said while sitting down beside Krystal on the living room couch.
Krystal then turned to Jessica, giving her her full attention since Jessica looked kinda serious.

"Hmm..?"

"Well Krystal, im expanding our business to America"
"So.. I'll have to travel to America to handle everything, make it run smoothly before coming back to Korea"
"Do you wanna stay in Korea or leave for America with me?"
"Im leaving in a weeks time"

"In a week? Thats fast.."
"Hmm.."

"Well..?"

"..."
"Of course i'll leave with you! How can i survive alone in this big house?!" smiled Krystal

And that settles everything for America.
The whole week passed like a breeze for Jessica for she was busy with the preparation that's gonna be used in America & spending time with Taeyeon.
Soon it was the day that Jessica&Krystal to leave for America.
Jessica forbidded Taeyeon to go and send her off because she supposed its just gonna end in some crying scenes.
And Jessica hates that, she hates those farewell scenes even more.
She was sure that if Taeyeon came, its gonna turn out that way.
So she asked her not to go and send her off.

After flying for 12 hours, Jessica&Krystal finally arrived at Los Angeles International Airport.
And actually, they were supposed to be welcome by Tiffany.
But as soon as Tiffany arrives at the airport, she was surrounded by fans.
As she walks towards the arrival hall, more and more fans were surrounding her.
Despite the fact that she tried so hard to disguise herself by wearing a cap, sunglasses and jacket hoodies.
It seems so hard to not be recognised by the public.
When Jessica&Krystal was spotted by Tiffany,
Tiffany ran towards Jessica&Krystal and hugged them.

[ENGLISH CONVERSATION]

"HI GUYS!"
"I miss you sooo much!" Tiffany exclaimed while hugging them.

"Woah, they're so lucky to be hugged by Tiffany"
"I wondered how are they related to her"
"The girls Tiffany's hugging are gorgeous too!"
"I wonder who are they.."
Fans around them were whispering to each other about the 2 mysterious girls that Tiffany's hugging.

"We missed you too Tiff!" replied Krystal&Jessica

"And with what we've seen, you brought so much fans to welcome us too Tiff?" giggled Jessica

"It wasnt what i wanted, i tried disguising myself"
"But it seems like i've failed badly?" Tiffany said while throwing them an awkward smile
"Well, lets just go back first. If not we're gonna suffocate her" joked Tiffany
 
Tiffany took down her sunglasses, cap & hood, and shouted

"Hello to my beloved fans out here! Can you guys please stop crowding around us?"
"We need to move out! Thank you! I love you guys!" Tiffany shouted and eventually threw them her famous eye smile before moving off.

After her shouting, everyone started moving away from them, opening a path for them to walk out of the airport.
The trio then walked out of the airport hand in hand, chatting, giggling & laughing all the way home.

As days & weeks passed by,
Jessica's business getting more and more stable.
Although missing Taeyeon's one big minus point,
Jessica's still managing well in LA.
During a day when Jessica's at Tiffany house relaxing after the work,
Tiffany brought Jessica&Krystal into her favourite room in the house.
When they got in, Jessica&Krystal was shocked to see that instead of a bedroom,
it looked more like a studio.
Then it occured to them when they were young, not only did they play together, they sang songs together too!
They even won some prizes during some mini singing competition.
Childhood times. Good old times.

"Oh my gosh Tiff!"
"I didnt actually know you had a recording studio!"

"Yeah unnie!! Me too!!"
"Reminds me of the times when we were young"
"Entering kids singing competition together!"

"Yeah, its been long since i last sang because i wasnt with you guys!"
"Now that you're here, lets get some songs recorded!"

[End of ENGLISH CONVERSATION]

So they sang, had so much fun, spent the whole night in the recording room.
During the whole session,
Jessica sang a few solos - Almost & Barbie Girl
While Tiffany sang - Umbrella & Poker Face
Krystal had a duet with Jessica - Tik Tok
Tiffany had a duet with Jessica - Because Of You

They had all these songs recorded and had them burnt in a disc.
While doing so, Jessica requested for one extra copy.
She wanted to gift it to Taeyeon.
A return & apology gift when she return to Korea.
An apology for not being with her for so long.
A return gift to let Taeyeon know that Jessica missed her all along.
So Tiffany gave her one.
Tiffany even had it customised with the trio's face on the disc.
How cute!

Soon, it was time for Jessica to return to Korea.
Before she left, she appointed the overall-in-charge of looking through the important matters to Tiffany since she's in LA most of the time.
She instructed the workers there to only show Tiffany the important stuff but not those tiny weeny stuff 'cause Tiffany herself is already quite busy with her personal work.
Jessica made Tiffany incharge because Tiffany's the only person she can trust with her business.
No one else could be any much better than Tiffany to take up the position.

The day when Jessica&Krystal arrived at the Incheon airport,
they were welcomed by Taeyeon with a big bear hug each!

"SICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~"
"YOU.ARE.FINALLY.BACK!" Taeyeon screamed at Jessica's ear.

"AHHH!"
"Dont scream at my ears Taetae"
"Im back im back okay!" pouted Jessica

"Unnies~ im still here you know~"
"You guys should just get yourself a room"

"Krystal~~"

With that, the three of them left the airport and went home.
As soon as they reached home, Krystal went into her room straight away and fell asleep.
It seems super tiring for her to take at 12hours long flight.
While Jessica & Taeyeon went in Jessica's room.

"Taetae!" Jessica called while hugging Taeyeon from her back.

"Yup Sica?"

"I missed you so much!" Jessica said while drawing a big circle with her hands

"I missed you too, Sica!!"
"I cant describe how much it is 'cause its just beyond description Sica!"
"And Sica, over 2 months, i managed to persuade halraeborji to give you a chance to be with me"
"But you'll have to prove it to him you're worthy enough for me" Taeyeon explained

"Awww.. Arent i worthy enough for you, my Taetae?" teased Jessica

"Of course you are! But halraeborji just dont think that way"

"Hahas, im just kidding!"
"So.. whats the test about?"

"Hmm.. halraeborji says he will talk to you personally"
"He didnt wanna tell me about it"
"So i told him i'll tell you when you get back"
"So when are you meeting him?"

"Hmm.. i think the faster the better?"
"I guess i'll be free tomorrow lunch"
"I'll meet him for lunch then Taetae"
"I'll make it a point that he'll accept me" assured Jessica

"I believe you will too"
"But if he's gonna make you eat those unreasonable food again"
"Just walk away" ordered Taeyeon

"I doubt he's gonna do it again"
"So dont worry!"
"All these aside now Taetae!"
"I've got you something when i was in LA"
"Its one of a kind. There's only 4 copies of it in the whole wide world"
"And..."
Jessica stopped and smirked

"And?.."

"...."
"And you're getting one out of the 4!"
"Arent you glad? Its not something everyone can get it you know?"

Jessica then took out the piece of disc from her handbag and handed it over to Taeyeon.
Taeyeon looked at the disc and started laughing.

"Taetae! What kind of laughter is that?!"
"It sounds like ahjumma's laughter!!"

"HAHAHAHAS. I cant help it!!"
"Its my specialty! Your faces on the disc is so funny!"

"Taetae.. Stop laughing.."
"Its a limited edition disc.."

"HAHAHAHAHAH"

"Taetae.. Stop it"
"If you're not going to stop, im going to take it back!"

"HAHaa.. OKAYOKAY!"
"i'll stop, what you have given it to me is mine already"
"no taking it back!!"
"But what is this Sica?"

"its a priceless gift"
"dont you dare to lose it Taetae!"

"Araeso araeso"

After Jessica's return, Taeyeon spent the rest of the day chatting with Jessica and soon,
it was time for her to go home.

Taeyeon's POV

Hmm..
I wondered whats inside the disc Sica just gave me..
It couldnt be something like a video with something popping out to prank me?
Im sure Sica wont do something this bad to me, will she?
Shall play it using my laptop.

End of Taeyeon's POV

When Taeyeon got home, she went back to her room immediately.
She didnt even bother to greet her grandfather like she usually do.
Think she probably forgotten about it since the mysterious disc Sica gave her practically occupied her whole mind throughout the journey home.
As soon as she got into her room, she threw everything onto her bed and sat down at her desk, switching on her laptop.
After the laptop started up, she put in the disc in the disc player and soon,
melodious voices were heard.

It was Jessica's voice..Tiffany's voice.. and their little maknae Krystal!

Taeyeon's POV

Wow..
The three of them sure has a melodious & angelic voice!
Amazing..
Especially Sica's voice..
I love it.
Totally..
