Jessica was on the way to Super Boys’ villa. “Aigoo~ So heavy!” she whined. Anyways, it was nothing to her compared being happy when she saw Onew’s happy face. She was bringing along about ten books on her hands and every one of those books looked very heavy and thick. The height of all those books on her hand was higher than herself. So, she couldn’t see very well because they blocked her view. She needed to move aside to see where she was walking to.

When she arrived in front of the door of Super Boys’ villa, she stopped her steps for a while. Her right hand slowly let go of the hold from those books to open the door after confirming it was safe to do so. Because of that, her left hand started shaking while her right hand was opening the door to enable her to enter.

She always knew that there would be a chair at a corner when entering the villa but somehow she forgot about it today especially when those books were blocking her view. She slightly bumped into that chair but she was still okay. However, the books that she was holding, lost its balance and fell on the floor. Unfortunately, Jessica accidentally dropped the thickest book on her foot. “Ouch!” she held her foot and rubbed it gently.

Onew, who was coincidentally in the living room, was startled with what Jessica was doing. As soon as he spotted her, he rushed to her. “Are you okay?” he widened his eyes as he was shocked when looking at Jessica and with the books that were strewn on the floor.

She lifted her head up. She gave a smile at Onew. She bowed her body to collect all the books.

“Leave it to me!” Onew immediately interrupted before Jessica could do it. He went to Jessica and he held both of her arms with both of his hands. He helped Jessica walking to the living room. He made Jessica took the seat on the sofa. He walked away and Jessica’s eyes were just following him until he disappeared from her sight.

He came back after a few moments with books in his hands. He put the books on the table and took a seat which faced Jessica. “What’re up with those books?” he raised his eyebrows.

“Those books are for you!” Jessica beamed at him. She really wanted to get the best present for Onew but it’s really hard to think what he might like the most. She could only think about book since he was a bookworm. She thought it would be better to buy a lot of books since a book seemed too simple.

“Really?!” Onew got excited when he knew those books were for him… from Jessica. He actually expected that Jessica couldn’t get him the present for this year as he assumed she might get really busy. However, even how much busy she got, she would always got something for him. His eyes seemed were sparkling when he checked out those books.

“I bought a book from all genres because I really didn’t know which one is your favorite genre. Between, I’m really sorry if my present is too ordinary.” She gave him a stiff smile while rubbing her neck.

“No, they are really great! I really like it!” Onew emphasized all his words to show that he really meant it. He felt extremely happy with the present and it seemed the main factor of his happiness was because he was concerned more on who gave the present instead of what the present was.

Jessica felt much relief when she saw Onew’s happy face. “You must read all of those books, okay?”

“Of course!” he nodded.

Jessica took a book from all those books and showed it to Onew, “Especially this one!”

Onew read the title of that book which was All about Love. “Why?” he asked in confusion with a frown on his face. He really didn’t understand why Jessica wanted him to read a book about love.

“You still don’t have a girlfriend, isn’t?” Jessica replied.

Truthfully, Onew felt a bit disappointed with Jessica’s reply. Anyways, he didn’t want to show it obviously his feelings. “Do you really hope I will get a girlfriend?”

“Huh? A… Ah… y… yes…” she faked a smile. She couldn’t deny that deep in her heart how she wished she wanted to be that lucky girl and it was really painful for her to see Onew with other girl. However, if she followed the way that her heart wanted to, it’s not fair! It’s completely not fair for Onew! She couldn’t be too selfish! She tried to stick the positive thought in her mind. Although she couldn’t be that girl, she still hoped Onew would meet a girl who was better than her, much better! Someone that could give the happiness to him.

“Ok, understand! I’ll get her! No matter what will happen, I’ll get her!” Onew emphasized all his words.

Jessica looked a bit uneasy when she saw Onew’s serious face. Seriously, the atmosphere became a bit awkward since they bragged about Onew’s girlfriend. They became silent out of sudden. Onew just kept checking out those books silently and Jessica moved her position on the sofa awkwardly. She thought it would be better to not mention anything about love. She really hated for her stupid behavior just now.

“Oh, yes!” Jessica blurted out as she just remembered about something. Onew lifted his head up and looked at Jessica in astonishment. “I prepare another gift for you!”

“Really?!” Onew replied her with a sweet smile. He closed the book and paid his attention fully on Jessica. “What is it?”

“I’ll give you 3 wishes. Just tell me what you want. I’ll be your genie! Tell me your wish~”

“You’ll grant everything that I want?”

“Yes, of course!” Jessica nodded. “As long as I can do it!” she added with a grin on her face.

“Em…” Onew looked hesitated. After thinking for a while, he decided to say it. “Then, can you spend all your time today with me?”

Jessica looked very happy to grant Onew’s wish because that also was her wish actually. “Ok, no problem!” She also wanted to be with him on his birthday because that’s the only the chance she could be with him without giving any proper excuse. “So, what shall we do today?”

“Actually, my mom cooked many foods for…”

Jessica immediately interrupted before Onew finished his words. “Really?! Let’s go to your house!” Jessica got up from her seat and she went to Onew. “Let’s go!” she pulled his hand to force him got up.

“How about you foot?” Onew pointed to Jessica’s foot worriedly.

“It’s okay! It not hurts anymore!”

---------------

They were discussing about how to move Tiffany’s things from her apartment to Soshi Girls’ villa. Since Jessica and Onew had gone to Onew’s house while Sungmin and Sunny had gone to Seoul Train Station, there were only Taeyeon, Yoona, Yuri, Tiffany, Wooyoung, Donghae and Hyunjoong.

“Fany-ah, you still don’t organize your things, isn’t?” Yoona looked at Tiffany.

“Of course!” Tiffany nodded. “You guys just inform me about this, yesterday.”

“Since we are altogether about 7 people, do you think it will be enough to move all your things today?” Taeyeon asked Tiffany.

“Ah, yes. I think it’s more than enough actually.”

Suddenly, Yuri’s cell phone which was on the desk beside Yoona, rang. “Yuri-ah!” Yoona informed Yuri about the call. However, there was no response from Yuri. “Where is she?” Yoona looked around in the villa. “Yuri-ah!” she called once again and there was still no response.

“Maybe she is in her room,” Tiffany suggested.

“Aish… she always leaves her cell phone outside.” Yoona decided to answer that call first since it had been a long time since it rang. She took a look at the caller name. “Hello, Minho!”

“Oh, Yoona! Hi!” Minho’s voice sounded a bit shocked since he didn’t expect other person would pick up the call. “Can I speak to Yuri?”

“Wait a minute!” Yoona got up from her seat and went to Yuri’s room. Yoona knocked the door before entering Yuri’s room. Yuri looked at her while raising her eyebrows. Yoona pointed to Yuri’s cell phone and mouthed, “Minho!”

Yuri suddenly got excited and her eyes looked were sparkling. She quickly ran to Yoona and took her cell phone. “H… Hello, Minho?” Yuri’s voice was vibrant as she felt too excited and anxious. Seriously her heart started pounding.

Yoona back hugged Yuri and rested her chin on Yuri’s shoulder while drawing her ear to Yuri’s cell phone to eavesdrop the conversation.

“Yuri, do you have a free time, right now?” Minho asked.

“Em…” she was thinking what should she replied. “Why?”

“Can you accompany me? Right now, I’m practicing alone. My friends get something to settle.”

“Well…” she really was in doubt. She really wanted to accompany him and of course, it really made her feel happy like she was on top of the world. However, she was supposed to help Tiffany moving her things. “Minho, can I reply you later? I’m not too sure.”

“Why? Do you already have a plan? It’s okay. I don’t force you. I’m just asking.”

“NO!!!” Yuri out of sudden replied while raising her voice. “That’s not what I meant!”

Yoona who was back hugging Yuri and tried to hear the conversation between Yuri and Minho, was a bit startled when she heard Yuri’s scream. “Ah!” she rubbed her ear while hitting Yuri’s shoulder lightly.

Yuri grinned at her with a guilty expression was on her face. She continued talking to Minho, “Minho, don’t misunderstand! I don’t refuse your invitation. I’ll reply you soon, okay?”

“Ok ,ok!” Minho replied in excited voice like a small boy’s voice who was very in a great mood. He didn’t know why but Yuri’s cute behavior always made him feel so happy. “By the way, whose voice was that? I think I heard someone else’s voice just now.”

“Oh…” Yuri chuckled and she looked at Yoona. “It’s Yoona!”

Yoona looked at Yuri in confusion while raising her eyebrows. She mouthed, “Why?” Yuri grinned at Yoona while shaking her head.

“Ok, I’ll wait for your reply. Bye!” Minho ended the call.

Seeing Yuri finished using her cell phone, Yoona asked eagerly, “Why did you mention about me?” she shook Yuri’s arm.

“Nothing much! He just asked me who the noisy girl is!” Yuri smirked.

“What the heck?!” Yoona whined and she glared at Yuri. “Since you have Minho now, you abandoned your friends!”

Yuri chuckled. “Yah! Im Yoona! What is this? Are you jealous at Minho?” Yuri put her arm around Yoona’s shoulder.

Yoona folded her arms and starting talking seriously. “Ok, tell me the truth! If Minho and I both fall into the river, who will you save?”

“Huh? Em…” Yuri rubbed her chin. “I… will… I… will…” Yoona paid fully her attention on Yuri and looked straight into her eyes. Yuri gave a stiff smile as a reply.

Yoona burst into angry and she started giving a piece of her mind. “You can’t give the answer?! I’m not your choice?!”

“It’s not fair!” Yuri defended herself. “Then… how about you? Who will you choose, me or Donghae?!”

“You or Donghae? Em…” Yoona looked hesitated too. Finally, she replied while shrugging, “I don’t know!”

“See?” Yuri asked proudly while raising her eyebrows.

“Hey, what’s wrong with us? Why should we arguing over a childish thing like this?!”

“What?!” Yuri asked in disbelief. “You started first though!”

“Oh!” Yoona’s mouth shaped O. “You are right!” Then, she grinned for her embarrassing behavior. “Then, how about your problem? Minho asked you out, isn’t?”

“Em…” Yuri nodded for a few times while pouting her lips. “We are supposed to help Tiffany today.”

“Just ask her first. She said it is more than enough for having 7 people to help her. So, I don’t think it would be a problem.” Yoona patted Yuri’s shoulder.

-----------------

Sungmin and Sunny waited for Leeteuk about 15 minutes already but he still didn’t turn up. Sunny kept looking around to find him. Sungmin was just wandering around while folding his arms. He looked worried actually and it wasn’t because of the absence of Leeteuk. Instead, he was uneasy if Leeteuk would turn up.

Another train was arriving. Sunny locked her eyes on the exit door. There were many people coming out from the train. However, Sunny couldn’t see even Leeteuk’s shadow. She took a look at Sungmin. “Yah! Can you stop walking around?! Help me find him!”

Sungmin immediately stopped walking and faced Sunny. “Do you know what time is it? If he really did come, he should have turned up about 20 minutes ago! Besides, it’s really hot right now and especially when we dress like this!” He fanned himself with his hand. “Let’s go!” He grabbed her hand and tried to pull her.

“No! We should wait for him!” Sunny stopped Sungmin from bringing her away.

“If he really did come, he should have arrived now!” Sungmin started raising his voice. This time he felt really angry. What was so good about him that made Sunny really liked him?!

“Eh~ Don’t talk too loud!” She patted Sungmin’s arm. Everyone who was passing by, started looking at them. They doubted Sunny and Sungmin were only the ordinary people. Sunny and Sungmin really stood out since they were the only one who dressed differently with others. They wore sunglasses and a bit thick clothes. It really made others wondered since it was summer right now.

Out of nowhere, there was a guy who was standing beside them. He looked like were looking for someone while mumbling. Sunny took a look at him. “Oppa!” she blurted out happily.

Leeteuk looked at Sunny. “Who are you?” he looked at her from head to toe with a frown on his face. Who was this unknown who called him oppa? On top of that, she was wearing a thick cloth, with a cap and sunglass. Now, this was summer! Was she crazy wearing like that in this hot season?!

“Oppa, it’s me!”

“Who?!” Leeteuk raised his voice as he started feeling annoyed.

“I’m Sunny!” Sunny whispered to Leeteuk.

“Oh!” his mouth shaped O. “It’s really you?!” he observed her in amazement. After confirming she really was Sunny, he immediately hugged her tightly. Sunny smiled happily in his embrace.

Sungmin folded his arms while looking askance at them. Truthfully, he was trying to hold his temper. Even after a moment, Sunny and Leeteuk were still hugging each other tightly. Now, Sungmin glared at them and his blood was boiling. “Aish! Really…” Sungmin grabbed Sunny’s arms and pulled her from Leeteuk’s embrace.

“Why?” Sunny asked.

He faked a smile. “Hyung, it’s nice to meet you again!” he said in annoyed voice and he hugged Leeteuk to change the atmosphere. He let him go as soon as he hugged him.

“Sungmin, you are here too!” Leeteuk beamed at him.

“Yes~” Sungmin nodded lazily.

“But, why are you two dressing like this?”

Sunny tiptoed and whispered to Leeteuk. “Oppa, don’t you remember? We both are singers now!”

“Oh, yeah! I totally forget!”

“If is not because of you, we won’t need to dress like this!” Sungmin mumbled while glaring at Leeteuk. Then, he cleaned his throat. “I think we should go now. Everyone started feeling suspicious about us.” He could see from the side of his eyes, there were many people staring at them.

“Oh, right! Oppa, let’s go!” Sunny grabbed Leeteuk’s arm and they started walking together to the car park with linking arms. Sungmin gripped his hands and followed behind them angrily.

Onew and Jessica arrived at Onew’s house. As expected, Onew’s mom immediately hugged Jessica tightly as soon as she spotted her. Jessica smiled happily in Onew’s mom’s embrace. Onew just smiled widely at how close the relationship between his mother and Jessica.

Onew’s mom put her hand on Jessica’s shoulder and leaded Jessica entering their house. Onew followed them by being next to them. “Luckily you are here. Otherwise, auntie would kick Onew out.” Jessica smiled bashfully while taking a glance at Onew.

It seemed like today was Jessica’s birthday and they were throwing up a party for her. The presence of Jessica seemed more important to his mother. His dad came and greeted Jessica kindly. He also seemed like Jessica very much.

“Unnie!!!” out of nowhere, Sulli came out and ran to Jessica. She hugged Jessica tightly. They almost spun around 360° because of the force when Sulli dashed towards Jessica. They were hugging onto each other tightly and jumped excitedly like the little kids.

“Hey, how about oppa?! It’s my birthday!”

Sulli pouted her lips cutely as a refusal. Onew pinched Sulli’s cheek and it was quite hard. “Argh! Oppa!” she hit Onew and rubbed her cheek. Jessica chuckled looking at how Onew got childish when he was with his younger sister.

After that, they all started having their lunch together. They were having some fun conversation. Jessica had many stories to tell since she didn’t pay a visit to Onew’s house for a long time. The atmosphere was like their daughter-in-law was visiting them after a long time.

“Unnie!” Sulli called after finishing her meal.

“Em?” Jessica took the last bite, put the spoon and fork back on the table and paid the attention fully on Sulli.

“When you want to enter this house formally?” Sulli supported her face by pressing her arm on the table. She grinned at Jessica.

“What did you mean by that?”

“I want you to be my sister.”

“Sister? Not that I’m your sister now?”

Sulli pouted cutely while shaking her head. Jessica looked at her in confusion. “I want you to be my sister-in-law.”

Onew who was eating, almost choked. Jessica’s eyes went bigger. “WHAT?!”

“It’s not wrong, right? We are so close. On top of that, Oppa also…” Sulli couldn’t finish her words.

Onew took a slice of bread and put the large bread into Sulli’s mouth to shut her up. “Eumhhh… Eumhhh…” Sulli tried to talk even was filled with the bread. She hit Onew hardly.

However, Onew kept feeding Sulli. “I’m very kind for feeding my sister, isn’t?” Onew asked sarcastically.

Their argument also made others laughed. Actually, this was why Jessica was falling to Onew more and even more. Not only Onew himself was kind, his family also treated her well. They always created a comfortable and fun atmosphere. She felt like she was part in his family which could be reality if she accepted Sulli’s suggestion.

-------------------

Minho made the last shot. His face obviously showed that he looked very uneasy.  He decided to take a rest or actually to check his cell phone for the tenth time. As expected, Yuri still didn’t call or text him. He sighed and put his cell phone back into his bag.

Actually, he didn’t have to check it. He didn’t put his cell phone in silent mode. So, if there was any call or message, he would be informed by the ringing. Finally, he forced himself and continued his practice back.

“Minho!” he heard someone was calling from behind. He immediately turned back as he recognized that familiar voice. Yuri looked at him while holding onto the door as a support. She looked was in out of breath.

Minho looked at her in confusion. Why didn’t she inform him first? Didn’t she know that how he would be crazy because worrying for her too much?! Especially, when she just got her asthma attack.

As their eyes met, Yuri smiled at him. She felt a bit better. She straightened back her body and approached Minho. “I’m sorry for my late. Did you wait for long?” Yuri asked him and still continued giving him a wide smile.

However, Minho just stared at her with a frown on his face. Yuri looked at him fearfully. Was he angry at her? Slowly, Yuri’s smile disappeared from her face. Truthfully, it was a bit scary for Yuri. This was the first time, she saw Minho’s angry face which meant this was the first time, he got angry at her.

“Minho, why?” she approached him.

“Don’t come near me!” he raised his voice which made Yuri’s steps stopped immediately. He glared at her while heaving deep breathes. Out of a sudden, he threw the ball in his hands towards Yuri.

Her eyes went bigger and luckily, she still managed to catch the ball. She totally forgot about her hurt hand. However, her hand didn’t feel hurt at all. She stared blankly at the ball and her bandaged hand. Did her hand completely recover now? However, she was more concerned about Minho’s anger right now.

She lifted her head up and looked at Minho. She didn’t say anything. She waited until Minho told her the reason that made him got angry at her. Minho just walked to the seat and left Yuri alone there with a confusing situation.

Yuri’s eyes followed him and stopped when he sat down. She must do something because she knew Minho won’t solve this problem. “Minho, did I do something wrong? Why are you getting mad at me?” Minho didn’t reply her. She took a few steps approaching Minho and stopped to see his reaction. Since there was no refusal from Minho, she took more steps approaching him.

She carefully uttered her words to make sure it won’t increase Minho’s anger. “Are you angry because I’m late? Ok, ok! I’m really sorry. I have tried my best to run here as fast as I could. So, can you forgive me now? I won’t do it again. Minho, please don’t treat me like this. I’m really sorry, okay?” Yuri’s voice sounded a bit sad. She felt like crying now. She couldn’t stand being given a cold treat from Minho.

Finally, Minho got up from his seat and this time, he was the one who approached Yuri. Yuri looked at him fearfully. Did he want to hit her this time? Seriously, her heart started pounding. Minho stopped in front of her with the distance about 5 inches between their faces. “Yah, silly! Do you think I’m angry at you because of that?!”

“Huh?” she looked confused.

“Do you know how I feel worried about you?! You didn’t reply anything even after an hour. Can’t you inform me first if you can come or not?”

“I just want to make a surprise!” Yuri said while grinning.

“Surprise?!” Minho asked in disbelief. “You really scared me to death, you know?!!! And, did you run to here? I have said please don’t run again! I’m afraid you will get your attack again!”

“Ok, ok… I understand! I won’t do it again!” Yuri lifted her hand up to show that she really meant it. “So… you aren’t mad at me anymore, right?” she smiled with the spark in her eyes. Minho nodded. “Yeah!” she jumped happily.

“But, there is a condition.” Minho said which made Yuri stopped jumping immediately.

“What is it?”

“You must promise you won’t do it again.”

“Ok, no problem!” she exclaimed. Minho smiled after seeing Yuri seemed too happy with his condition. They made the promise by their pinky finger.

Minho remembered about Yuri’s hurt hand when he saw her bandaged hand. “Your hand… I threw the ball…”

Yuri immediately interrupted, “It’s okay. It not hurts anymore.”

“Really?” Minho grabbed her bandaged hand gently and observed it carefully.

“Yes! I’m telling the truth!” Yuri smiled.

Out of a sudden, they heard a ball was bouncing towards them. They immediately turned their body towards it. The ball almost hit Yuri but Minho quickly caught it. Yuri hove a relief sigh as she was shocked of the ball that was coming to her.

Minho was looking around to see who did that to her with a frown on his face. However, he couldn’t spot anyone there. “Who is it?” Yuri asked anxiously.

“I don’t know.” Minho replied with a serious expression. “YAH! WHO ARE YOU?!!! SHOW UP YOURSELF IF YOU DARE!!!” Minho shouted while looking around to keep his eyes on him when suddenly that person would come out. His scream was too loud until it produced an echo in that basketball court.

Out of a sudden, they heard a guy was laughing evilly. “Do you think I’m scared to face you?!” he asked while continued laughing evilly. Minho kept his eyes at where the direction of that voice came. After a moment, that guy showed himself.
