3rd December 2012         "Dear passengers, we have arrived in Japan, Tokyo international Airport. Thank you for boarding with Korea Air. This is Captain Dae-jung speaking. Welcome to Japan." The captain spoke through the speaker.   I smiled slightly.    Today's the 3rd of december. Which means, it is two days away to Yuri's birthday.  I'm seriously really really excited this year. I still remembered we were both busy last year and we couldn't even celebrate our birthday together.. Gosh, thinking about it makes me really sad.  However, I am not letting this year go, and seems like God is on my side!  Tiffany noona told me that they will be coming to Japan tomorrow and this means, I will be able to celebrate with Yuri!   I really wanted to make it really special this year. So I specifically texted every single SNSD member except for Yuri. And before you think that I am flirting with them, NO, I am definitely not! This is to ensure that they will go accordingly to my plan and act out with me so that everything will go on smoothly.   I really hope this works!   4th December 2012             "Welcome to Japan, Thank you for boarding with us!" The air stewardess smiled at me.   I smiled brightly back at her, and held onto Tiffany's arm.   Oh, how excited I am. I can't stop smiling now. Manager oppa told us that we will be in Japan and Shinee is already in Japan since yesterday. This means that I can finally meet Minho! And this also mean that we can celebrate our birthday together this year!   I took out my mobile phone and texted Minho "Minho-ah, I am in Japan! Let's meet up later!"   I hope he receives it.   I placed the phone back into my pocket.   "Yah, stop smiling kwon yuri! Your teeth's gonna drop off if you continue smiling!" Fany teased me.   I pushed her slightly "Yah! How can you say that to me!"    "Okay, okay! We should get going, the others are waiting for us. We are already lagging behind them!" Fany giggled and pulled me along.   I really can't wait to see him! I was so sad that we couldn't celebrate each other's birthday last year! It made me remember of the time when I was in Singapore for our concert on his birthday..   [Flashback]   9th December 2011   "Girls, lets do our best today!" Taeyeon said as she stretched out her hand.   And all of us followed, "Jigeumen So Nyu Shi Dae! ( Right now, it's Girls' Generation!)" And we pushed our hands down together!   It was his birthday but I couldn't be physically with him and it makes me really sad.   I brought out my phone and sent a last message to him before going on stage,    "Minho-ah, Happy birthday! I'm sorry I can't be there physically with you! But you know I love you right? I am gonna do my best in singapore for my concert and come back to you soon!"    I hope he sees the message.   I quickly placed my phone back into my bag and prepared myself for the concert.    We were having so much fun until I saw this fan showing her ipod "Minyul"   Gosh.. Why did you have to show me this? On the day of his birthday..   I tried really hard to smile and give my very best to the fans.. But this fan really got me distracted.   I miss him way too much and the guilt I have was filling me so much so that I can't concentrate. I struggled to keep my tears from slipping out, I quickly reached out for a nearby water bottle. I quickly sipped the water and placed it on the floor. I walked off quickly but I accidentally kicked the water bottle.. However, I was too bothered to place the bottle in the right position. All I could think of was..    it was Minho's birthday. And I can't be there.. I miss him so much.   [End of Flashback]   I snapped out of my thoughts and we were walking on the pathway out of the aiport. Many fans were shouting and screaming for our name.   And then a fanboard caught my attention.   "MINYUL"   This time round it made me smile widely, because I am able to see Minho!   We then went straight to our music bank recording for our Japan promotion. We recorded the song over and over again. It took many hours before everything was done.   We finally ended everything and was finally going back to our hotel room.   We board the bus, I was sitting alone in the bus while the rest each found their pairings to sit with.  I thought that it didn't affect me, but I guess I was wrong.   I was kind of bothered by the members as they chose to sit with somebody else except me. And they were all either playing among themselves or on their phones.   Talking about phone. It seems like Minho hasn't received my message. I took out my phone to check for any missed calls or messages.   None.   Nothing at all.   I decided to call him, I pressed on the call button..   However, it seemed like he wasn't free to answer my call..   What is this..? Why isn't he replying me at all... Is he that busy to even reply me..?   It is like only a few hours left before it is officially my birthday..  And Minho isn't reply
