During my stay at the hospital, I found out that Jessica never visited, even when I was already awake. That moment, I admit a part of was hating her, but the other half was still longing for her face.

Sounds stupid? - I know. But that was before, but right now.. As I said, everything changed. I already move-on and that is final.

Her parents - Mr. & Mrs. Jung visited me when I woke up. Maybe Soojung told them, or they got the information  from the news, either way I appreciated it.

They already knew about the break-up, but the same as my parents' - I kept my mouth shut regarding to it. They are really nice people, honest. They were so worried about it, saying that they would talk to Jessica and something just for us to fix it, but I was stubborn - I didn't let them to..

But, I will also not forget how sorry Mrs. Jung was. I could sense that  she was guilty about it, and how much worried she was. I playfully thought, that maybe she knows something about our break up, but I pushed it all away since I thought, that Jessica is her daughter that was why, Mrs. Jung felt like that.

All in all, the Jung couple and I are still in good terms, but of course they're trying to be as cautious as possible on mentioning the sensitive part of my love life.

My label mates, even our CEO Mr. Lee visited me at the hospital during my recovery, but even a shadow from her - I never saw it..

I didn't see her for a year and a half already. Even though, I usually see the 8 of them, but except from her. I cut all of my connections from her - I deleted her contact and even her pictures in my phone. This way,  it will help me heal, right?

"Amber, here.." I looked up, and then chuckled as I accept the lunch box from my manager's hand. "As usual, it is from your fan."

I smiled, opening the mini lunch box. "Aigoo.. That fan is so sweet! And consistent too.. He or she never failed to send me this lunch box for a year already! Hehe! I wonder, how is that fan giving it to you?"

I heard no response. I looked up to him, and found him looking at me with his eyes blinking. As if, I ask something that was hard to answer. "Well, that guy is so smart. He would always give me a basket of fruits in exchange for that."

Although, he didn't give the exact answer for my question, I just shrugged it off since I was shocked to know, that the one who is constantly giving me a lunch box is a guy. "A guy?! You mean namja?!"

"Yah, you kid!  I have my eyes! I can identify a person's gender!"

I grinned. "I was just surprised, hyung, but is he.. You know.. Dang--"

"Yah!" He shouted, well not totally. "How can you say that to your fan?! He is trusted and especially not dangerous.." He murmured, when he said the last 5 words.

"Arasseo.. " I scratched my head."I was just worried you know.. Maybe.."

Then he cut me off again.

"Don't worry, Amber. He's not the kind of person you're thinking of.  Trust me."

His smile, somehow put me at ease. "By the way, is there still someone leaving a lunch box too in front of your doorstep?"

A year ago, when my arm was still not fully recovered, there's someone who would ring my doorbell and would leave a lunch box in front of my front door. I never told this to anyone, aside from manager-hyung, since he's been receiving a lunch box for me from a fan too. Surprisingly, it didn't scare or freak me out when someone is constantly leaving a lunch box outside of my apartment with a note inside - fortunately, for the past year, there was nothing weird in my body when I would eat it, and surprisingly it is delicious!

"Yeah. And I am certain that it is a girl, hyung!" He chuckled.

"Really? How can you say that?" He asked, more like teasing me.

"Well, she calls me unnie!"

"Really, eh? Then how old is she?"

"Hmm.. She said in a note before, that she going 12 this year and been living in Korea for a year."

"What?! She said, she's just 12?!" He exclaimed, totally surprised.

I nodded. "Well, at first, I was surprised also, then after awhile, I felt that I am already used to it.."

"Wow.." He muttered, then he sat beside me, still in awe. I couldn't blame him. I was like that, when I first found out that my admirer was 11 years old, and now turning 12. I chuckled, remembering the scene.

"Amber are you-- oh.. You're here.." Our attention was shifted towards the person who just entered the room.

I placed the lunch box on the coffee table, that was in front of me. "Soojung, what is it? You're looking for me?" I asked her.

"Oh.. Uh.." She took a quick glance at manager-hyung, then back to me. "I was just wondering if you uhm.."

"What?"

"If you uh--" Then, out of nowhere, suddenly someone's phone rang, knowing it was from manager-hyung.

"Oh, shoot! It's the stage director! I will leave the both of you here, okay? Sleep early for your comeback stage tomorrow. You guys need energy! And by the way, wait for your other three members before you sleep. And lock your dorm okay. Bye, I need to go! See you tomorrow!" he said, patting my back and ruffling Soojung's red hair, before storming out of the dorm.

"Aigoo.. Hyung is getting old.. Hehe!" I laughed,  as he left.

"Amber~" Somebody, cooed. I look back at Soojung and found her pouting at me. 

I chuckled. "What is it, Soojung?"

She sat beside me at the couch, slipping both of her arms around my waist, as she laid her head on my shoulder. Automatically, I wrapped an arm around her shoulder, rubbing her upper arm. "I missed you..~" I smiled.

It's already been 3 weeks since that night, and after that day, Soojung became so clingy and sweet towards me. I admit, I'm still getting used to it, and she seems not to be bothered by it, and at the same time I'm still afraid of this sudden - growing feelings towards her. I am certain, and at the same time still uncertain. "What do you mean by that? We saw each other, yesterday."

She made a tsk-ing, as she buried her face deeper in my neck. "That was yesterday. Today is different. We never got a chance to see each other because of our schedules."

It's true. The 5 of us were all busy with our own schedule. Krystal with her upcoming drama - the other three with their endorsements and CF's, while me at Show Champion. We were lucky, if we were given an hour break from work.

"I see.." I mumbled. "Are you ready for tomorrow, Soojung?"

She leaned back, so that she can look at me, and sometimes I caught her looking at my lips. "Yeap. Ready, as always. How about you?"

"Well, the same as you. Excited for tomorrow." I said, shifting my gaze towards the show I was watching earlier. Somehow, her eyes were making me uncomfortable.

"Really?" I nodded, still focusing on  the show. I felt her staring at me intently - I breathed-out just to release the tension inside my body.

I didn't know, but every time she would look at me, the way she's looking at me right now, I couldn't help but to feel nervous. I just don't show it to her, but honestly my heart would beat as faster as a running horse. Like what I've said - - I'm still getting used to it.

"Hmm.. Okay, then.." I caught my breath when I felt her lips gently grazing onto my neck, but soon relaxed when I hear light snores coming from her.

"That was close.." I whispered, releasing  a deep sigh.

Weeks passed, and our RPPP promotion has come to an end. Although, the promotion was short, still I am happy that we didn't disappoint our fans, and they never stopped supporting us including our latest album Pink Tape.

The response were overwhelming; our seniors, label mates, family and friends didn't forget to congratulate us, because of the huge success of our latest album, and we celebrated because of that.

Ring ring...

We're on our way to my place from Show Champion recording, and as usual manager-hyung and some of our f(x)'s team are here in the van. "Hello?"

"..."

I waited for an answer but didn't get any. "Hello, who is this?"

"..."

I pulled the phone from my ear, and noticed that it is an unknown caller. "Hello?" I repeated.

"..."

"Who is that?" Manager-hyung asked from the passengers seat. Looking at me through the rear view mirror.

Shrugging my shoulders, I tapped the red button, before placing my phone into my pocket. "Unknown caller."

"Again?" I merely nodded in response, while I resumed playing Temple Run 2 on my iPad.

I heard him sighed. "It's been over 8 months since like that, Amber. You're not bothered?"

"No.." I paused, as I tried tilting the iPad to right, so that the running man can collect the coins. "I'm not. I'm too busy, and no time to think for that, hyung.."

And again, he sighed but a deeper one. "By the way, this coming Sunday, Mr. Lee called a meeting for the upcoming SMTown concert in Hong Kong.. And.. All of your label mates are going to attend the meeting."

I stopped. "Game over.." A voice from the iPad said.

Label mates.. Is that mean, we're going to see each other again, after a year and half? I wanted to say these, but I just kept it inside my head. "Okay.. I will be there.." The bitterness of my voice is pretty evident.

I guess, it is time for us to meet again, isn't it?
