Minha smiled after she read the message again. she went home early today since hanmi said she can do everything by

herself since they have a new trainee. “noona! Dinner is ready!” minho called her. she glance at her bedside clock it’s

8pm “arasso I’ll be out” minha replied. she tied her hair into a messy bun. “hey minho oppa you know you can tone

down…” minha paused. Frozen. “hi” jaejoong is there wearing an apron, putting a plate of dish in their table. She

looked at her mother who is smiling and nodding at her. minho high fived jae. “I thought you’ll be here by 10?” she

uttered. She remembered what she’s wearing. She looked down. She is wearing her tattered over sized shirt and her

old sweat pants which got holes on the knee part and below. Her face, bare – bare face, hair, “OMO! I’m not decent!”

minha turned around to enter her room again but jaejoong stopped her holding her wrist. “you look perfect minha,

perfect to me” jaejoong said. minha can sense her mom mentally tumbling on the floor. She slowly turned face down.

“I miss you that’s why I asked my manager to drop me off here as soon as we arrived” jaejoong plant a kiss on her

head. She look up, blushing “you look fine and I look like trash” she mumbles “No baby, seeing you like this, it is

perfect for me. Come on, I cooked something for you, I thought you miss my kimchi soup so, tada!” jaejoong said

animatedly when he sit minha on the dinning table.

“dear, we will be sleeping now, thank you for the gifts jaejoong-ah, I love it” her mother said to jaejoong, he politely

bowed. “it is fine omoni. I thought of you when I saw that bag and scarf” “I like this kid so much already” her mom

said patting jaejoong’s face. Minha rolled her eyes. “well you are a fan omma” “oh right, well, good night you too,

minha don’t stay too late you have work tomorrow” “omma its my day off” minha said. “oh right, I’m getting older by

the minute” “hyung thanks for the toys, and I love the travel guide!” minho high fived jaejoong again. “I bet you like

the travel guide rather than the toys?” minho nod making jaejoong chuckle. “you are a weird boy” jaejoong ruffled

minho’s hair. “thanks again. noona, don’t stay up late. Okay?” minho turned to his sister. minha giggled. “arasso

minho oppa” minha mocked minho. “goodnight hyung, night noona. Saranghae” minho said making a heart shape

above his head. “saranghae little minho” minha kissed minho on the cheek. Minho marched to his room and closed it.

“I like your brother. He is so mature” “he is. He is more mature than me” minha pulled jaejoong on the little balcony in

their living area.

“I miss you” jaejoong whispered as he back hugged minha. “me too. So much” she replied. “wait. I bought you

something.” Jaejoong pulled away. Minha faced him with a puzzled look. He pulled something from his jeans pocket.

“I saw this and know that it is for you” jae closed hand lifts minha’s right hand. He opened it and minha gasped. “it is

antique, well a local said” he said shyly. “it is pretty. Is it expensive?” minha asked looking straight in his eyes. “nope.

It is reasonable” minha furrowed her brows. “okay a bit but it’s for you” “jae, I told you, you don’t need to spend your

money on me.” “I know but I saw it and I know it will be perfect for my girlfriend” minha sighed. “arasso, arasso,

thank you. I really love it kim jae joong” minha said. “I love you” he whispered leaning on her forehead. “I love you

more” she replied. “hey that’s my line” jae said chuckling. Minha smiled genuinely. “how was india?”minha then asked.

“full of Indians?” he said. minha hit his arm. He laughed. Oh how she missed that laughter. “it is hot there. so much. I

enjoyed staying there. when we go to a vacation I want to bring you there, you’ll love it there. the food is amazing” he

said. “vacation? us?” minha asked. “yeah, of course, if you only agreed I could have bring you there” jae said. “I don’t

have money you know that” “you know that I’ll pay for it” “not again jae” minha stopped him. Jae sighed.

“what is with you and my money?” minha exhales “like you said, your money, you work hard for it, I don’t want you

spending it harshly.” Minha reasoned. “that’s not true, I want to buy or spend it for my girlfriend, it makes me happy

that I can provide things for you. Don’t be stubborn minha” jae’s voice is high, a bit angry. Minha flinched hearing his

tone. Jae closed his eyes and exhaled. He walk towards minha and hugged her. “I’m sorry, I yelled again” “jae, I think

you should go home, you are tired. We can talk tomorrow. I am tired too” minha’s voice is trembling. Jae hugged her

tighter. “please don’t be mad at me. I’m sorry” “I know jae, just get some rest huh? I’ll go to your apartment

tomorrow. I’ll cook for you” minha pulled and cupped his face to kissed his forehead. “I love you jae.” “I love you more

minha” “now go, you need some rest” “okay, but before I go” jae leans closer to her face and kissed her passionately.

Deeper. Minha pulled away. “jae” minha said. “I’m sorry, I just missed you so much” jae kissed her again. she pulled

away again. “you know my rules jae.” Minha said. “arasso” jae rest his head on her forehead. “I’m sorry” he breathe.

“it’s okay.” She said. “see you tomorrow.. er.. later I should say” minha said glancing on her watch. “yeah, I guess. Jiji

and I will be waiting for you baby” minha nod and peck on his lips again.

Jaejoong arrived home only to find junsu and yoochun there. “where have you been? Weve been waiting for hours”

yoochun said. “we’re hungry” junsu pouted. Jae smiled at them. “thank you for the warm welcome guys” he said

sitting lazily on his couch. Junsu and yoochun looked at each other. “something happen hyung?” yoochun asked

sitting beside jaejoong. “yeah? Something bothering you?” junsu asked. “is it weird that there’s still nothing going on

with me and minha? I mean intimately?” he asked. Well he is a man after all. Yoochun shook his head. “hyung, not all

girls are that kind. Minha is different. You are lucky” junsu said. “su, this is the 21^st century, it is weird” yoochun said.

jae sighed heavily. “I kissed her deeply before I went home but she stopped me” jaejoong said. “hyung! You shouldn’t

be telling that to us!” junsu blurted. Yoochun just hit junsu’s head. “ouch! That hurts!” junsu said. “hyung, you should

play rough, I mean I think she is just playing hard to get now.” Yoochun said. “yah! Park yoochun! What happened to

you?” junsu said. “jaejoong hyung is suffering here. He is a man and she’s his girl. There’s nothing wrong with that”

yoochun said. “oh men he is drunk, I can tell, don’t listen to him jae hyung please” junsu said and dragged yoochun in

the kitchen. Jaejoong is frowning. “that’s not a bad idea” he said to himself.
