She wiped her tears away before entering the dorm. “Don’t be affected about what she said. Tina can be a complete at times, Jooyoung. It’s not like you’re not used to her being like that. Don’t feel offended by that. You also can her back anytime.” She tried to feel okay and breathed several times before twisting the knob.

“Unnie!” Sooki immediately grinned when she saw Julie. “You need to explain to me why you didn’t open the door for me yesterday!! We knew you were both inside the dorm the entire time!” She said like an adult. “It’s my task to look after the both of you. Uncle and Unnie sneaked out!” She crossed her head and shook her head.

“I’m sorry, Sooki-ah.” She uttered and walked towards her room.

“Sooki is mad at unnie and uncle.” She uttered. “It made me feel that you don’t want me to be here.” She pouted.

“I’m sorry, Sooki-ah.” She uttered without even looking at her.

“From now on, I’ll make sure I’ll look after you really sharply.” She uttered.

“We don’t really like you here, you know. Everything changed right when you arrived. You little meddler. It could have been a lot better if you stayed at home with your mom and dad. I don’t like you here!” Her patience ended there and she shouted at Sooki without control.

Sooki stared at her for like 3 seconds before she could get to absorb that her unnie was mocking her. Sooki’s tears started to fall and she ran out of the house.

Juliette breathed heavily. She felt sorry for the kid but her mood just got in the way that she couldn’t stand such a childish nag anymore. She placed her hand on her forehead and closed her eyes to calm herself more.

She then entered her room and started packing out her things. Juliette estimated that Taemin will arrive home anytime soon. That’s when she will tell him that she should leave because her sister got mad of what they did last night.

And she was right. Taemin arrived just 25 minutes after she did.

“What are you doing?” Taem entered her room and saw her packing everything on the huge bag.

She stopped and looked at Taem. “Unnie found out that we locked ourselves here without letting Sooki entered. She speculated about us.” She said.

“What?” Taemin frowned and looked at the bags. “Now what’s all of these? You’re leaving?”

Juliette nodded. “She said that I should live with them from now on. Unnie doesn’t want me to be here.”

“And you agreed?!” Taemin was in rage. “You can’t leave Jooyoung. Tell them you can’t!!” He grabbed her arms.

“You’re hurting me, oppa. Let go.” She said calmly. “I need to listen to unnie. She’s older than me afterall, and I think she’s just trying to tell me what’s right.”

“I don’t care. I need you to be here. You also need me, right? Why do you have to leave?” Taem is starting to get insensitive as their discussion passes by. “Why do you have to leave? We’re being cautious about everything we do. It’s been over 6 months since we started being together and nothing wrong happened.” He said.

“Will we wait for something bad to happen? Come on, oppa. We know olders were still right. We have to follow them, and it’s not like we’re going to see each other anymore.”

“I’m busy, and you’re busy. We’re not normal people to just have a date whenever we want to. I can only see you upon going home. How else could we meet if we’re living apart?”

“If that’s the case then I’ll make a way for us to meet. I’ll skip school. I’ll sneak out at home late at night. I’ll do everything just to match your schedule, but right now, what I want is to have unnie’s trust back.”

“Who is she to order you around?! You have your own choice and decisions!!” He shouted.

It made Juliette stopped. “What?”

“Aside from being her sister, she doesn’t have anything to do with you. Why would she meddle? Aren’t you in the right age already? You know what is right from wrong. You should know what to do with your life. She doesn’t have to command you!!”

“Are you in the right mind?” Juliette, who was trying to control her temper, started to burst it out. “Who was trying to control me all along? Aren’t you the one who orders me around? Aren’t you the one who keeps on telling me what to do and what not to do? You’re only thinking about yourself it could be better if we just live separately!” She shouted, closed her bag, and immediately left.

“Hwang Jooyoung!” Taemin shouted but Juliette didn’t look back. “JOOYOUNG-ah!” He went out but saw Juliette already walking fast outside.

Taemin was really mad. He kicked the couch and threw the pillow on the floor. “Stupid!”
