You waited patiently in front of the school’s gate. You peeked in and saw the empty yard. *I already texted Jinki that I’m going to pick him up, but why is it pending?* You checked the delivery reports and yes the message was pending.

“Where are you, Jinki?” You looked back to the yard and found your brother was walking.

“Jinki!”

Jinki looked up and met eyes with you. *Oh dear, what am I supposed to say to noona?*

You beamed and approached him. You embraced his arm tightly. “Why are you so late? Everyone were already gone.”

Jinki just gave a small smile.

“Okay forget that.” You smiled. “Let’s eat! What do you want to eat? Pizza?”

Jinki just kept staring down, didn’t answer your question. You stared at him. “Aigoo, Jinki. What’s wrong? You get a bad score?”

Jinki shook his head. “No. Come let’s eat pizza.” Jinki forced a smile.

You pinched his cheek. “That’s my precious Jinki.”

You both walked and you looked to your left and right to find a good pizza place. “That one? I don’t think so.” You said to yourself. “How about that one?” You turned to Jinki but Jinki just stared blankly. *What is wrong with him? Ah maybe because of that.* “Jinki.” You patted his arm.

Jinki blinked at you. “Yes, noona?”

“I know why you’re sad.” Jinki furrowed his eyebrows. “It’s because the cellphone that I bought for you is so bad right? I know, I’m collecting money now, and if I have more money, I’ll buy the best cellphone for you.”

Jinki stared at you. *Noona why are you so kind?* “Noona, it’s not that. I-“

You shook your head. “It’s okay. I’ll work hard for you, but now I hope you can be patient until that day comes.”

Jinki stared at you both in happiness and sadness. He was happy because he had a really kind and care sister like you, but he was also sad because you had to work hard for him and your mother. Jinki pulled you and embraced you tightly. “Noona, mianhae.”

You were surprised with the sudden action but you patted his back. “Why are you sorry?”

Jinki shed a tear. “I-I broke the cellphone.”<
