It was nearly the end of March, and Sulli’s birthday is approaching and it’s already her 18^th birthday.

She’s excited for her debut; she made her invitations for the party and almost all the SM family are there. Though it’s just a small gathering in their manor. She prepared her 18 roses, 18 candles and 18 treasures.

Heechul was of course a part of his 18 roses, along with her other oppaS, but his place is surely more important, next to her brothers.

She’s getting ready for the party and she likes to be exceptionally beautiful in the eyes of her loved one, Kim Hee Chul.

At the evening of her party..

*Sulli’s POV*

“Mom, what do you think?” I asked my mom about my dress.

“You’re already beautiful my daughter!” my mom assured me “Let’s go down, your friends are waiting for you.”

“Okay mom, you go ahead. I’ll follow.” I said catching one last glimpse of my appearance.

I came to the entrance of the manor to greet the guests. Of course f(x) is there already together with the SHINEE members. JI stopped and chat with them. I smiled at the few guests arriving, several SNSD members, especially Tiffany and Taeyon unnie, who took care of me, then Changmin and Yunho oppa, arriving with Suju oppas.

 I hold my breath when I saw them entering in pairs, but someone seems to be missing. And he can’t be ignored. I am very nervous as I make my may towards them and greeted everyone of them.

“Sulli, Happy Birthday! “they greeted me. Maybe it was obvious that I’m looking for him, because leeteuk finally said “Well Heechul might not be here because of his schedule. I’m sorry. “

I was soooo disappointed. I can almost sense tears.

“O-okay, thanks for telling me.” I forced a smile and excused myself. Why isn’t he here? Didn’t he realize that it’s one of my special days????

The party started and before I know it, it’s finished. I’m too exhausted, but I didn’t forget who’s missing in my party. I frowned in disappointment.

I guess I wouldn’t talk to him for a week. When I accompanied the last visitor to the gate, because my mom was now sleeping,

Since it was an afterparty and the crowd is just us youngsters. I’m now alone in the hall where the party was held.

I can’t help but sigh and pout. The lights are off indicating that the party was over.

I decided to retire to my room and just open the gifts that my friends and rellative have given me. I took one step in our staircase..

“Manhi mangseolyeotjyo geudaeman boneun nal

Idaero saranghalsun eobnayo..”

My heart skip a beat, turning around to search for the owner of the voice. Tears are forming on the brim of my eyes, and then I found his silhouette, and started to walk towards the person who's singing, the voice that I’ll always recognize, even when my eyes are close, even when I’m sleeping..
