Taemin P.V.

I went into the practice room to check on Minhyo. What the heck is wrong with Minho, why is he ignoring everyone?

"Minhyo Nonna did you guys fini...." My sentence trailed off seeing her state...She was standing in the middle of the dance floor, fist balled, and she was crying.

"What happened? Whats wrong!"

She wouldn't answer me. Instead she just kept quietly sobbing. I went up to her and hugged her. What did Minho do to make her cry? I felt bad...

"It's okay Nonna don't worry about him. He's really weird sometimes..."

She nodded...

"Hey how about we go for some dukbokki and ice-cream?"
 

She stopped crying and looked at me happily.

" *HAHAHA* Okay go shower and change, and we can go out , okay?"
"Alasseoyo." :)

Minhyo P.V.

YAY! Taemin-ssi is taking me out to eat spicy rice-cakes! I've always wanted to try them. So I hopped into the shower and dressed as fast as i could, throwing on my hoddie, shorts and boots. I didn't even bother to dry my hair. I just tied it up in a messy bun. Even though Minho was being unreasonably mean to me, I was still excited to get to bond with Taemin.(He is sooo adorable..kekeke =P) I opened the door and Taemin was impatiently waiting there.

"Nonna! You ready!"
"Neh!" :)

He took me by the hand (*blush*) and lead me to the living room.

"Hyungs! I'm taking Minhyo out for some food. We will be back later."
"Aww I wanna come!" Jonghyun Oppa tried to tag along but Taemin shut him down.
"NO."

Jonghyun : *pout*

I started laughing, and Taemin looked at me in surprise, making me nervous.

"Minhyo Nonna..."
"Wha...What?"
"Your laugh is so adorable...You never really laugh around us....It's the first time I'm hearing it...."

I looked at everyone else in the room. They were all staring at me in shock. immediately I blushed. All of a sudden Taemin hugged me really tight.

"Taemin-ssi..." He hugged me tighter...
"I...I...can't breathe!"
"Oh, sorry...It's just...I'm really happy! *grin*" :D
"Okay lets go!" He grabbed my hand again.
"Hyungs see you later!"

Within a flash we were out of the door. He was still holding my hand (*blush blush blush*)

"Tae...Taemin-ssi...my hand...."
"Oh sorry." =p

He let my hand drop and put his in his front pockets. Then a repulsive gurgling sound came from somewhere deep in my stomach...(embarrassing...)

"Ooooh HOoooo see what happens when you don't eat."

I pouted * *

Taemin P.V.

I'm so unbelievably happy! Haha! Minhyo is hungry, her stomach was growling really loudly

"Ooooh HOoooo see what happens when you don't eat."

She pouted in response to my scolding. And for some reason it made me even happier. It was just like when she laughed in front of the Hyungs and I. *sigh* I am so happy it feels like i have the rays of the sun beaming out of me in all directions.

"Taemin-ssi why are you sighing?"
"Oh *kekeke* its nothing." I was grinning
"Oh here we are!"

We got in and ordered enough dukbokki for two. When we got our food Minhyo immediately began to eat, only stopping to say "WWaaaaahhhh delicious!" I didn't feel like eating, she was enjoying it so mush I felt it would be a crime to take even one from her. Kekeke she eats so cutely. She just shoves everything in at once. By the time she finished eating, she developed the worst hick-ups from eating to fast. Apparently shes had the habit ever since she was born. Kekeke shes so funny.

"Nonna lets have some ice-cream!"
"Okay...but..."

She got all worried looking...

"What? Whats wrong?"
"I can't have ice-cream, I'll have frozen yogurt. I've already eaten to much."
"Oooh are you watching your weight?"
"NO *haha* though i should. (I'm Fat =P) I am a diabetic, too much sugar is like poison for me."

I was shocked! My heart started to race. I knew someone whos grandmother went blind because of complications from her diabetes. How can Minhyo be sick! She looks so healthy, and she hasn't been eating well for the past week!

"NONNA! Why didn't you say something earlier! You haven't even been eating well! What would we do if you get sick!"
"I didn't want you guys to worry about me too much. I can eat almost anything, I've just got to watch my proportions and take my meds."
"And have you been taking your medicine?!"
"Yes! Taemin calm down!"

I realized I was being totally frantic. Taking a couple of deep breathes I smiled...

"Okay, lets go get your yogurt."
"YAY!" :)
"Wait for me here, I will be back..."

I went to the corner store and got some ice-cream and yogurt. I didn't know which one Minhyo would like, so I took a chance and got the banana flavored (mostly because I like it :) ) When I left the store Minhyo was sitting on a bench across the street. I jogged over to her.

"Here!" I handed her the banana yogurt.
"Thank you." She grinned
"I love BANANA!"
" *haha* Me to!"
"Yea I kinda figured with your many bottles of banana milk during the day...which I will confess to sneaking a few..."
"AH! NONNA!"

Sitting next to her I opened my frozen strawberry-pop

"Cheers?"
"Cheers!" We touched our deserts together.
"Taemin-ssi..."
"Neh?"
"Why did you hug me so tightly...you know...earlier...?"
"Oh *haha* its because I was really happy." :)
"About what?"
"Well, in truth, I thought that you didn't like it here with us. You've barely been eating or talking."
"Ooh..."
"I thought maybe you weren't adjusting so well to Korea, so I was worried."

Looking back on this afternoon, I got shy thinking about when I impulsively hugged her...

"So when you laughed with us this afternoon, and blushed, I thought 'She doesn't dislike us!', So I hugged you....Sorry about that..."
"Thats okay..."

Her eyes were downcast, the smile disappeared from her face.

"So if you don't dislike us...what is it?" I remembered the way Minho blamed her for his drunkenness...

"Is it Minho?"

She bit her bottom lip letting her head hang lower...Trying to hide her moistening eyes.

"CHAM! What did he do to you this afternoon to make you cry?"

Putting the yogurt in , she shook her head. Determined not to reveal anything to me. My fist clenched, this whole situation was making me angry. Just what did Minho do?

"Minhyo Nonna, please ...don't keep things to yourself. What happened?"

She looked up at me, her eyes were full of tears.

"Minho doesn't like me..."

Her head fell back to its hanging state over her now dripping yogurt...

"He doesn't want me...here..."
"Don't think about him, he is really cold sometimes."

She looked up at me again, this time tears fell over-

"But...it really hurts...apayo..."
