DOUBLE UPDATED! Go back one chapter!

"How do you think we'll get there?" Chanyeol murmured.

The six of them didn't dare to close their eyes as they took in everything they could with their sight. No one really knew how the switch between the two worlds actually happened until they experienced it for themselves. Did it happen like in those cartoons where they would suddenly go through a swirling tunnel and then finally plop into the other world or something?

"Maybe it's really the swirling tunnel." Baekhyun puffed his cheeks and twisted his lips. "Do you think we'll see those flashing bright lights and then we'll just unceremoniously fall onto the ground on our butts?"

Kai snorted. "That sounds ridiculous."

D.O. swallowed. "Well I do hope it doesn't happen that way." he shuddered, paling at the thought of spiraling through a swirling tunnel. "Did I mention I have motion sickness?"

Chanyeol raised his brows in surprise at the umma. "No wonder you never dared to sit on roller coaster rides with us! I always thought you were just being sissy since you were playing the umma role!"

The six huddled in a corner of the antique store as they waited for dawn to approach. There was an unsettled feeling in every one of their hearts but they didn't dare to voice out their feelings for fear that the uncertainty was put out in the open after everything was irreversible.

Suho noticed that Sunmi was a little too quiet and nudged her gently. "Hey are you okay? You'll be able to see your boyfriend in a few hours."

Sunmi forced a smile and hugged her knees to her chest. She gazed at the rest of the boys with a soft expression. "I..." she whispered. "I..I just want to say that I really appreciate you guys as my friends." she whispered.

Everyone quietened down to look at her, her gaze softening. "It's just..." Sunmi swallowed, struggling to find the right words. "It's going to be very difficult if I were to go over by myself. I didn't dare tell you guys but I was scared to death, I didn't know what to expect. But at the same time I couldn't NOT go either." she let out a tiny breath of desperation. "I HAD to."

She let her gaze wander around their faces and her vision slowly blurred as tears welled up in her eyes. She really didn't know what she did in her past life to have such wonderful friends as these boys were. Which friends were willing to give up their everything to go with you on a quest of never return?

"So.." she took a deep breath. "Thank you. Thank you for making this painful, difficult decision. Thank you so so much."

D.O.'s bottom lip wobbled and even Kai looked a little touched. He cleared his throat in an attempt to hide the fact that he was blinking away tears. Chanyeol sniffled loudly with no shame at all as he spread his long arms apart. "GROUP HUG!" he declared, promptly gathering everyone in his arms in a massive hug.

Sunmi smiled softly as she wiped furiously at her cheeks. These boys...they were heaven's gift to her.

At around 6am, the sun slowly rose. Darkness faded and the sky turned brighter as tinges of yellow and orange appeared in streaks. Sunmi swallowed as she gazed out of the window, biting her lip.

It was already dawn, but nothing had happened. They were still sitting in the same spot they had been for the past night and nothing had changed, not even a suspicious activity by the flies that flew past them.

Sunmi hugged her knees to herself in the awful thought that occurred to her. What if the mirror was a faux? After all that pondering and big decision making, what if the mirror wasn't even the real thing and it wouldn't even work?

It would all be for nothing because then she would never get to see Sehun and all she knew was that he was going to be running away from the police for the rest of his life. Either that, spending the rest of his life in jail. None sounded appealing.

"Do you think it's going to happen any time soon?" Baekhyun murmured, frowning at the sky. "It's dawn. The switch is supposed to happen by now right? That's what it means by changing the opposites by daylight."

D.O. let out a huge sigh. "I think the mirror didn't work."

Sunmi noddded and D.O. offered her a bitter smile. Kai groaned and raked his fingers through his hair. "I'm going to kill that Ahjusshi Han for fooling us once more."

Suho scratched his head and stood up from his place. Sitting for the entire night rendered his legs jelly and he stumbled slightly, leaning against the wall for support. "I'll go out to buy us breakfast I guess. And then we can brainstorm on what to do next."

Sunmi slumped heavily against the wall, suddenly lost as all motivation and objective seemed to have disappeared all in an instant. D.O. pouted and stared blankly at the wall while Kai closed his eyes, resting his arm over them and hoping to get a nap.

It wasn't until a few curt voices outside that the gang realized something was up. Chanyeol frowned and listened closely, sitting up straighter. One of the voices belonged to Suho definitely, while the others belonged to foreign voices that they didn't recognize.

And those foreign voices sure didn't sound happy.

"I think we should check out what's happening." Baekhyun rose to his feet, his brows furrowed. D.O. nodded and followed behind him while the others slowly moved from their spots. Baekhyun neared the entrance of Ahjusshi Han's antique shop and to his surprise, saw Suho being interrogated by three policemen on patrol.

Baekhyun's eyes widened and he quickly rushed out to find out what in the world was happening. "What happened hyung?"

Suho looked helpless and confused as he glanced at Baekhyun and returned his gaze back to the three burly policemen. One of the policemen narrowed his eyes at the gang as they made their way out of the shop and snorted. "I knew these kids weren't up to no good. Always causing trouble. The world would be a better place without people like you." he muttered under his breath.

Sunmi frowned a little at his offensive comment but didn't say anything as she was mostly confused as well by what was happening. Why were these policemen kind of finding fault with them? They didn't do anything wrong.

Kai voiced out her thoughts exactly and was immediately shot down by one of the other men. "Don't you dare play dumb, young man. You and I both know that this antique shop is still out of bounds to public by Mrs Han's orders. I know you kids are dumb and naive but just spare a thought for that old woman who lost her husband, just leave her husband's antique shop alone god damn it."

Sunmi's eyes widened and she snapped her gaze towards Chanyeol who was standing beside her. The tall happy virus had the same look of surprise on his face. "You say....you say Mrs Han as in Han Ahjusshi's wife? As in Han Ahjusshi the owner of this store?" he asked slowly.

"No I mean Han Ahjusshi the guy selling chicken in the market." the officer rolled his eyes. "No of course I'm talking about Han Ahjusshi the owner of this store. If there weren't eye witnesses for his fatal car accident, I might have even conducted a check on you kids."

"Learn your lesson from this kids and don't go drink driving or whatever." the third officer muttered. "Cost a freaking life."

The gang looked at one another with awed looks. The shop they had been in belonged to Han Ahjusshi who was already dead, killed in a car accident. But their Han Ahjusshi was still well and alive last night. Unless the car accident happened in early that morning, that meant...

"OHMAIGAWD we made it to the other side!" Chanyeol blurted, his jaw wide.

Sunmi nodded, her eyes bright. "That means we've got to look for Sehun immediately!" she turned around to leave when one hand shot out to hold her arm. She spun round to see one of the officers sneering at her.

"Not so fast young lady," he drawled. "You, your boyfriend and his gang of friends have to be brought back to the police station for a few questions for barging into private property of a dead man."

At the mention of boyfriend, Sunmi automatically looked around. "Sehun?"

The officers looked around at once, alarmed. "What? Oh Sehun?" one of them immediately got out his walkie talkie. "Sir? We might have Oh Sehun around here sir, over."

"I'll go look around there and you on the other side. Better catch that darn rich murderer before he kills another someone." one officer ran off.

Another officer gave the gang a scowl. "You kids are lucky today. Don't let us catch you loitering around here anymore." he warned, shooting off in the other direction.

The gang stood there in shock, trying to gather their wits. "We made it over to the other side." D.O. whispered. "We're here. Ahjusshi Han is dead and we're gangsters and you two are supposed to be dating-" Sunmi and Suho blinked at each other. "And we're supposed to do drugs and OH MAI GAWD." he fanned himself, his eyes wide. "We're here!"

That summed everything up pretty well. After the initial disbelief at how ordinary the switch between the two worlds had been and how it all happened without a massive explosion or anything of the likes, the most important item on their list was to find where Sehun was hiding.

They had to understand what exactly happened and to actually identify his whereabouts to help him. The gang searched their usual grounds which they frequented back where they came from, the school grounds, Sehun's home. Pretty obvious places where they thought Sehun wouldn't have gone but couldn't help but try their luck anyway.

They were, of course, surprised by the difference in treatment over on this side as compared to over on the other side. Usually the EXO-K boys walked around and were treated like they were ordinary people, a friendly wave or smile occasionally but nothing out of the blue.

Over here on this side of the world, people didn't dare to meet their eyes for more than one second and they looked absolutely terrified should the boys land their eyes on any of them. Talk about terrorizing the innocent.

"Do we look that scary?" Baekhyun patted his face consciously. "I can't get used to how these people stare at us like we're about to eat them up any moment. Look at this cute face and they put up that face of terror. Can you believe it?"

Kai looked at himself through the reflection in the glass. "I don't look that mean do I?" he whispered to himself.

Chanyeol accidentally knocked into a girl carrying a load of books, causing the latter to drop all her items onto the ground. He immediately bent down to help her pick them up again while offering her an apologetic smile. "Hey I'm sorry about tha-"

"AHH!" the girl yelped and jumped back when she saw that the person she had bumped into was him. "NO PROBLEM!" she quickly gathered her items and rushed off in the opposite direction as quickly as her legs could carry her.

Chanyeol pouted and gazed as she walked away. "Why thanks."

Sunmi on the other hand, wasn't that amused or concerned about how this world views them. Sure she was supposed to be a big fat bully that dated the gang leader who did drugs occasionally and more often than not viewed as the scum on the earth.

But then again she knew who she was and she knew she was nothing like the Kim Sunmi here. What she was more concerned about was finding where Sehun was hiding and making sure he was alright. Who knew what troubles that cute innocent boyfriend of hers had gotten into in the past days?

Sunmi thought hard as the gang almost looked through every single crook and cranny of the town. Sehun was nowhere to be found, which was supposedly a good thing since he was supposed to be a wanted criminal.

She scratched her head and sighed heavily, feeling drained. A whole lot of emotions and worry wasn't doing her heart good, it felt like it was bursting from the myraid of emotions that ran through it every single second. The image of the haggard and tired Sehun with dirt smudges on his face while hiding in a cardboard box was deeply imprinted in her mind.

She didn't know how the mirror worked and why it decided to show her how Sehun was on the other side of the world right then, but she was glad it did. She would never have forgiven herself if Sehun was going through such suffering and she had no knowledge about it all.

She began to ponder about the possibilities of where Sehun could be hiding. Unlike how he was Mr Popular on the other side, Sehun was the geek and was detested by most in this world. Surely, he had to want to look for someone who would believe him and give him support.

Sunmi furrowed her brows as she could only think of one person he might have turned to for help. A little jealousy bubbled within her at the thought and she quickly forced it down before it fired into something more.

That girl might have caught Sehun's attention in the past but she sure wasn't Sehun's girlfriend right now. Sunmi was.

Sunmi clenched her fists and bit her lip hard, a little too hard. She just knew that Sehun must be seeking shelter over at Lee Jina's house, he must be.

Sunmi abruptly stopped in her tracks and her heel, striding off the way they had come from. The EXO-K boys looked at each other in confusion at Sunmi's sudden actions and scratched their heads.

"Sunmi, where are you going?" Suho hollered out to her, confused.

"I know where Sehun is." Sunmi muttered, twisting her lip wistfully. A little stupid to feel jealousy but honestly she couldn't help but feel a little insecure at how Sehun would be meeting Lee Jina again, his crush.

Not Lee Jina the bimbo with a huge chest and absolutely no brains. The nice Lee Jina, the real Lee Jina he had fallen for in the beginning.

Would she be able to rival someone like that? And besides, what if Sehun only chose her because his real Lee Jina wasn't there around him any longer?

Sunmi swallowed and broke into a run, dashing for the bus stop. The EXO-K boys hurried to follow, not at all knowing where she was going.

"Do you think she knows what she's doing?" Baekhyun muttered, jogging after her. "She doesn't look too convincing."

Kai just shrugged. "Well, she's the girlfriend. She must know."
