*flashback*

*ding dong* *ding dong*

 

“aish, coming! I’m coming!” yuri got up from her bed, dragging her feet out of her bedroom to open the front door

“who is it?” yuri swung open the door, her left eye is still close and her hair is messy because she just woke up and in a hurry to fix herself to open the door

“who’s there?” yuri went outside the door and try looking for the person who rang the door bell.

“aish, it’s too early to play, whoever you are you just disturbed my sleep” yuri said quite irritates she didn’t find the person who just disturbed her sleep. She went back inside her apartment and she decided to lie at the sofa.

“aw, my back still hurts…”she sighs as she lie on the sofa, she  tries to go back to sleep , suddenly the door bell rings again

“those pranksters, trying to play a prank on me in this early morning, ok calm down kwon yuri, don’t let them ruin your morning, remember you have work later…”

*ding dong* *ding dong*

 

yuri then goes back to the front door while whispering ‘your dead once I caught you..’ she again opens her door, and there she saw the person who just disturbed her sleep.

‘hey little sis!”

“changmin oppa!” yuri’s eyes grew wide when she saw her brother, then her brother gave her a hug and lifting her off the ground while they spin.

“yah! oppa, ouch my back, please put me down. I’m beginning to feel dizzy..”

“oh, sorry yul, hehe”

yuri now standing again, fixes her hair and also her shirt, then she looks at her brother who really surprised her

“oppa are you the one who rang the doorbell and disturbed my sleep?” yuri said while her hands on her waist.

“yes, that’s me haha, you look so pissed yul, sorry for disturbing your sleep and waking you up this early, the truth is I was planning to visit you late but I’m so excited to see you that I decided to visit you now…”

“fine fine, by the way where are your things oppa?”

“I left it at the hotel I’m staying…”

“ok, so what are you doing here inKorea?”

“I’ll tell you later yuri, now can we go inside your apartment? I’m quite tired and hungry I haven’t eaten yet since I got here inKorea…”

“oh, sorry, come inside oppa, I’ll cook our breakfast now..”

changmin sat down at yuri’s sofa and yuri went to the kitchen, changmin notices her sister is holding her back and massaging it.

“hey, yul what’s wrong with your back?”

“oh, I slip yesterday at the park, while yoona is chasing me, and I fell hard, back first…”

“haha, you two are like kids, be careful next time yul..”

“I’ll remember that oppa, now I’ll just cook our breakfast…”

“ok, I’ll just here for a moment, just call me when breakfast is ready!” changmin shouted from the living room

“ok!” yuri answered

===================================================================

“oppa, breakfast is ready!” yuri shouted from the kitchen

changmin got up from the sofa quickly and went to the kitchen

“woah, smells good it make me more hungry…”

“oppa, let’s eat!”

“why are you here oppa?” yuri asked her brother while slicing a piece from her pancake

“I’ll tell you later, please pass the syrup yul”

“why can’t you tell me now?” yuri said dropping her for beside her plate while looking intently at her brother

“haha, I told you yul that I’ll tell it to you later, now can you pass the syrup”

“ok, here’s the syrup, but I have work later, and how long are you going to stay here at my apartment and also here inKorea?”

“I’m also attending that event yul, so I’ll just tell you the reason later, I’ll be here inKoreafor 3 days to attend a business meeting for our company, and I will not stay here in your apartment yul, I’ll be staying at the hotel”

“hmmm, ok” yuri said while chewing her food, while thinking if her brother is telling the truth.

Changmin notice that yuri is just staring at a blank space while chewing her food.

“yuri, your zoning out again, you have a weird habit yul, hehe”

“huh?, n-no oppa… I’m just thinking if you-“

“If I’m telling the truth?” her brother fishers her sentence for her

“yes” yuri said looking down on her plate

“of course I’m telling the truth yul, and if your thinking that our parents send me here to fetch you and go toAmerica, well your wrong, I’m really here for a business trip yul”

“fine oppa, are you done eating?”

“yes, yul thanks for the breakfast, I’ll be leaving now see you at the event later”

“ok, see you later too oppa”

===================================================================

“hello? Yuri”

“oh, yoong I’m on my way to your place now, are you ready?”

“ok, yeah, I’ll be waiting for you outside”

“alright, bye”

“bye, drive safely yuri”

“yes I will”

after her call to yoona, she saw a blinking red light on the dashboard of her car indicating that there’s a flat tire

“huh, a flat tire, aish!” yuri said irritated while quickly drives to the side of the highway.

She went out of her car, she saw one of the front tire is flat, yuri kicks it and leans her back on the car while she grabs her phone from her pants to call yoona.

“hello, yoong I’m going to  be a little late”

“can I ask why yul?”

“got a flat tire, I’ll call you again once I fixed this”

“ok yul”

“bye”

after her call to yoona, she notice a black car slowly approaching the side of the highway near her car

“who could this be?” yuri said looking at the mysterious black car

the person went out of the car and approaches her

“hey, do you need help?”

“no, thank you, I know how to change a tire” yuri said smiling while trying to avoid the strangers eyes.

“no, I’ll help you, looks like your in a hurry” he said while smiling at her.

“no, I said I-“

before yuri finishes her sentence he quickly went back to his car and get the things needed to change a tire.

“hey, I told you I can change this by myself”

“no, I would really like to help ypu, I have lots of time, so just stand there while I’m working on this” he said smirking at yuri

what’s up with this guy? Acting so cool, he’s starting to irritate me…wait he looks familiar

 

“uhm” before yuri say something, someone called her name interrupting her thought

“yuri?”

yuri turns her head to the direction of the voice

“oppa? What are you doing here?”

“I should be the one asking you that question”

changmin approaches his sister and he saw a guy which also looks familiar to him changing yuri’s car tire

I know him, his one of them changmin thought then he looks back at yuri

The guy who’s changing the tire heard changmin, he stood up and said

“done changing the tire, by the way I saw her while I was driving, she looks like she need some help, so I stop by to help her” he said

“thank you for your kindness but my sister knows how to change a tire” changmin said while giving cold stares at the guy who just helped her sister, but the latter just shrug it off with a smirk and looks at yuri

“that’s what I told him oppa, but he didn’t listen so I just let him change it, by the way thank you, hmmm, may I know your name?”

“your welcome, I’m yunho by the way” yunho said smiling at yuri

“thank you yunho-ssi” yuri bows and then she looks at her watch

“gosh, oppa I’m going to be late , I still have to fetch yoona, I need to go now, thank you again yunho-ssi, I’ll see you later at the event oppa” yuri quickly gets into her car and drives off leaving the two guys

“I guess I’ll be going then, I have to attend an event also” yunho said starting to walk away to go back to his car while changmin is just staring at him.

===================================================================

“yunho looks familiar” yuri said while waiting for yoona to get inside her car

“who looks familiar?” yoona said while fixing her seat belt

yuri was startled she didn’t notice that yoona has already seated beside her.

“oh the guy who helped me change my car tire earlier, I think I saw him before” yuri said starting to drive and goes to the event

“hmmm, do you know his name?”

“his name? yunho”

“Haven’t heard his name before, maybe if you see him again you’ll remember”

“hehe, ok yoong…that’s if we ever see each other again”

===================================================================

“another fashion event” yoona said as she looks at the sign outside the entrance for the event, yuri is just standing beside yoona

“I’m sure there’ll be a lot of celebrities  attending and als some fashion designers” yoona said still reading the sign

fashion designers when yuri heard that she suddenly feel nervous

I think I’m going to see her again yuri thought while trying to compose herself and hide the nervousness she’s feeling from yoona

“yoona! Yuri!”

yuri and yoona heard someone called them, yoona stops reading the sign and yuri both of them look at the direction of the person calling them

“it’s seohyun” yoona said waving her hands

“hi yuri and yoona, glad your early I’ll take you two to ms. Kim, she wants to see guys, follow me”

both nodded and followed seohyun, yuri didn’t notice that yoona is not beside her, she’s beside seohyun having a conversation, yoona suddenly pulls her hand so they can walk side by side.

“Ms. Kim yoona and yuri’s here”

“hi ms. Kim” both yuri and yoona bowed

“your task for today is to capture photos of the celebrities and important people attending this event, go back again at the entrance, there’s a red carpet for them, you’ll be taking there pictures there, the photo’s you will capture will be included in our next months issue”

“ok ms. Kim we will go there now” yuri said both her and yoona bowed and make there way back to the entrance

===================================================================

“I wonder who the invited celebrities in this event are”

“hehe, well probably know later when they start to arrive”

suddenly someone arrive and starts to walk at the red carpet, and other photographers starts to take photos and so as yuri and yoona

“yuri, he looks familiar” yoona said still taking photos

“yeah I know yoong, it’s changmin oppa, hehe” yuri said while waving her hand trying to get her brothers attention, luckily she did and her brother looks at her and flashes his smile, yuri and yoona starts to take photo’s of him again

then he makes his way to the entrance door while mouthing ‘see you inside yuri’ yuri saw that and nodded

guests starts to arrive at the event, everyone is busy taking photos, when yuri looks at the next guest she was surprise to see Jessica

she’s also here

 

yuri continues doing her work, Jessica is just smiling lightly at the other photographers but as she looks at yuri and yoona’s direction that light smile change into a sweet smile and that caught yuri off guard, after that Jessica starts to make her way to go inside for the event.

Why?

 

Does she know that it’s that smile of hers that got me fall for her for the first time?

 

Or is she purposely doing it to hurt me more?

 

By that yuri stops taking pictures and starts to walk away, yoona quickly caught her hand and stops yuri from walking.

“yul, what’s wrong?” yoona asked yuri with a worried tone,

“oh, nothing ahm, it’s a bit crowded here for me I want to go somewhere, and I guess were done her” yuri said faking a smile and tries to cover the confusion that she felt when she saw Jessica again

“can I come with you yul?”

“sure yoong, I’m also going to look for changmin oppa, let’s go”

yuri and yoona makes there way out of the crowd and goes inside to look for yuri’s brother

===================================================================

“there he is” yuri said pointing at her brother’s direction

“oppa!” yuri said quite loud gaining some attention from the other guests present in the event, feeling some eyes on her she looks at them and gives a shy smile, and continues walking to her brother’s direction

“yuri” changmin said and gave her sister a hug she saw someone standing next to yuri, with yuri’s hand holdin the hand of the latter, yuri broke the hug first, she looks at yoona and also at her hand holding again yoona’s hand and then she let go of yoona’s hand, quite surprising yoona

“oppa, this is yoona my best friend” yuri said smiling

“hi, I’m Im Yoona” yoona said and bowed at changmin

“hi, yoona, by the way you can also call me oppa, hehe”

“sure, o-oppa” yoona said quite shy

“hehe, I remember you, you’re the one that yuri always played a prank on, I’m sorry if my sister likes to do that to you” changmin said smiling at yoona and playfully punch yuri’s shoulder

“oppa, that hurts” yuri said acting like she really did get hurt from her brothers punch

yoona just looks at the siblings, then she looks back at changmin

“its ok, hehe, I don’t mind yuri playing pranks on me” yoona said

“see, oppa yoong doesn’t if I play a prank on her” yuri said grinning at her brother, suddenly she whispers something to yoona

“you might regret sayng that yoona, hehe”

that caught yuri off guard, and suddenly her face turns red, that action of yuri made her blush and at the same time she thinks about the pranks that yuri might do to her in the future

“haha, yoong your blushing” yuri said poking yoonas cheeks

changmin is just looking at her sister’s playfulness to yoona

it would be better if yuri had fallen for yoona instead than with Jessica changmin thought

yuri stops poking yoonas cheeks and looks back at her brother

“oppa, now were here at the event can you tell me now the other reason why you are here aside from attending business meetings”

“oh, thant actually I ha-“

“changmin?”

yuri and yoona looks at the direction of the voice who called her brother

“hyo” changmin  while smiling

“hyo?!?” yuri and yoona repeated feeling curious, surprise and confuse

yuri and yoona’s boss is now standing beside changmin, with changmin’s arms around there boss’s shoulder

I know our family and ms. Kim’s family are good business partners and is close, but oppa and ms. Kim seems to look more close

 

“hi yuri and yoona” there boss said smiling at the two of them

yuri’s jaw drop slightly and sa as yoona, both of them didn’t expect this

“haha, it’s obvious that both of you didn’t expected this, I can see it with your expressions” changmin said while laughing and so as hyoyeon

“now yul I’ll explain it to you, hyoyeon and also the person hosting this event sent me an invitation an I learned from hyo that your one of the photographers assigned in this event, which I find great because I can tell you personally that your boss” changmin stops and looks at hyoyeon and looks back at yuri and yoona smiling

“is my girlfriend”

“oppa, that’s really nice to know, finally you have a girlfriend, before I thought you will grow old and will not have a chance to get a girlfriend because of work” yuri said teasing her brother, the she looks at her boss

“ms. Kim please take good care of my brother for me” yuri sincerely said to her boss

“hehe, yes yuri I’ll take good care of your brother, before I forgot you and yoona can have fun now, your work is done just send the photos to seohyun”

“really ms. Kim, I guess me and yoona should leave you two now, hehe, bye! See you oppa!” yuri said and pulls yoona with her

yuri found an empty table and she pulls yoona to go there

“yoong let’s stay and sit here for a while”

“sure yul”

then somebody tapps yoona’s shoulder she looks at the person who just tapped her

“hi seohyun”

yuri notices seohyun “hi seohyun come sit with us”

“no thank you yuri, hehe” seohyun said

yuri looks back at yoona

“yoong, now that our job is done, you can now go and hang-out with seohyun, I’m sure you two have a lot to talk about” yuri said smiling at yoona

“I was about to say that to yoona, hehe” seohyun said quite shy

yoona looks at yuri “will you be fine if I leave you here yuri?”

“hahaha, of course yoona, I’ll be fine, now go and have fun woth seohyun”

half of yoona want to stay with yuri, because she’s worried that Jessica is also here at the event, while half of her wants to spend some time with her childhood friend

“ok, yul if you say so” yoona said as she stood up and looks at seohyun

“so where are we going seohyun?”

“there’s a park outside this place, it’s more quiet ther and we can talk without having to shout, hehe”

“ok seohyun, bye yul! Call me if your going back home”

“yes yoong, and don’t worry about me and hve fun with seohyun”

yuri is now sitting alone, then she notices someone not far away from her

“Jessica?”

she saw Jessica talking to someone, she notices that the person looks familiar, then suddenly that person looks at her direction and quickly looks back at Jessica

yunho

then suddenly yunho walks away and Jessica is just staring at him

yuri then looks back again at Jessica, who looke like she’s drunk

why did he leave his girlfriend? Jessica looks like she’s drunk

 

she wants to go and sit beside Jessica, but she decided that it would be better if she just watch Jessica from a far.

===================================================================

“is yuri doing a good job as a photographer?” changmin asked his girlfriend

“yes, and also is yoona, that two works perfectly together, I’m thinking of sending them both toAmerica, where the main office of the magazine is situated”

“I think that would be nice, I can also see my sister more often if that happens”

as changmin and hyoyeon were talking he saw again the guy who helped her sister earlier, talking to again with a blond hair, he then remembers yuri’s description on what Jessica looks like could she be Jessica? Changmin thought, but just to make sure of that really is Jessica he askef her girlfriend

“hyo, what’s the name of that girl with a blonde hair?”

“she’s Jessica jung, why?” hyoyeon said looking at changmin with one eyebrow up

“nothing I just want to know her name, because I saw my friend just talked to her and don’t think of anything else babe” changmin said smiling at his girlfriend cute jealous expression

“speaking of my friend who just talked to Jessica, I need to go after him, I haven’t seen him for a long time, I just want to ask him something, ill be back” changmin said and hyoyeon nodded

===================================================================

yuri is still sitting at the same  spot watching over Jessica

I think she already drank a lot, where’s yunho? Yuri thought and look around to find yunho, but she didn’t find him, she looks back again at Jessica now talking to someone on her phone

===================================================================

“tiffany, where are you?” Jessica said drunkily

“your drunk again jessi?”

“no I’m not drunk” Jessica said with a little sarcasm in her tone

“….”

“are you still there tiff? Come fetch me here, I think I’m too drunk to drive my car”

“but I thought yunho oppa is also there, and I can’t use my car now”

“he left and I don’t know where he is now, I don’t care about your car, just find a way to get here, I can’t let her see me like this”

“who?”

“just go and fetch me here tiffany” Jessica said quite irritated

“ok jessi, I’ll be going now”

Jessica hung up the phone and lean her hean on the table, she’s feeling quite dizzy and she starts to feel her head ache.

===================================================================

 

she really is drunk, I think I need to help her, but how? She doesn’ even want me to go near her

 

 

but I can’t just let her look like that, where is yunho? Jessica needs him

 

yuri is still watching Jessica from a far, Jessica is still drinking and looks like she have no plan of stopping

yuri can’t take the scene in front of her anymore, she now don’t care if Jessica will push her away, she wants to help her, and be by her side. Yuri stood up and went straight to Jessica

“that’s enough ms. Jessica” yuri said holdin jessica’s wrist stopping her from drinking again, then she grabs the glass and puts it on the table

“tiffany? Did you fly to get here? You sure is fast” Jessica said drunkily with a light smile on her face, with her eyes half open

“no, I’m not tiffany, it’s me yuri”

“yuri? Kwon yuri? Didn’t I tolf you before to stop bothering me, your just making yourself miserable if you continue doing this” Jessica said pointing her index finger in yuri’s forehead, she tries to stand up and get away from yuri, but she was to drunk to do that, she was about to fall when yuri caught her arm

“I don’t care if I become miserable, I want to help you Jessica, now let’s go I’ll get you out of here” yuri holds jessica’s arms and she tries to put it on her shoulders, Jessica tries to resist and push yuri but failed

yuri assists Jessica and goes out to go to her car, when suddenly a girl come rushind and quickly holds jessica’s waist and pulls Jessica away from her, yuri was surprise with the sudden action of the girl she looks at the girl who is now holding Jessica

“jessi let’s go, I’ll take you home, it’s me tiffany”

she must be tiffany yuri thought

“hey wait!” yuri said

tiffany heard her and she turns around and gave yuri a light smile

“I’m tiffany, jessica’s friend, we need to go”

“let me give you a ride, I think it’s a little late to get a taxi”

tiffany is contemplating if she should accept the offer of the girl who just helped her friend

“will it really be fine with oyu?”

“yes” yuri quickly approachthe two and help tiffany carry Jessica who is now sleeping to her car and drive off

===================================================================

changmin then goes to find hif ‘friend’ yunho, finally he spots yunho, he quickly grabs yunho’s shoulder and stopping him from walking but yunho had already expected that to happen and looks at changmin

“let’s talk outside” yunho said and starts to walk again with changmin following him

“hey I know your one of the spies my parents sent for yuri, are you reporting and giving every information you got from your spying to yuri to my parents?” changmin said quite tense and trying to control his anger

“of course that’s my job, I have to report everything to your parents” yunho said smirking

changmin can’t hold his anger anymore, he grabs yunho’s shirt

“stay away from my sister, your just ruining her life!” changmin said with gritted teeth

“hey, I’m not the only spy your parents sent to looks after your sister, may be you didn’t know this but Jessica the girl that your sister love is my sister,a nd I’m trying to protect her from you kwons because I can’t let your parents ruin her life!” yunho said holdin the wirst of changmin and pushes it off, freeing himself from changmins grip

“I still need to look ou tofr your dear sister, I’ll be going now…” yunho said walking away while changmin is just staring at him, still processing what yunho just told him

===================================================================

where’ yuri and Jessica? Yunho thought as he was trying to find the two, he already tried calling Jessica but her phone is cannot be reach

“where did those two go?!?” he said in frustration

he then proceeds to the exit and goes out to find yuri and Jessica

===================================================================

“yoong sorry if I just called you now, I already left because I have to help someone, are you fine going home by yourself?”

“who did you help? Yes it’s fine with me, seohyun said that she can give me a ride back to my apartment”

“I’ll tell it to you tomorrow, that’s goos, take care yoong, I’ll call you tomorrow”

“ok yul”

yuri ended her call to yoona and place her phone beside her

“thanks for the ride” tiffany said and gave yuri a smile

“your welcome” yuri said and returning a smile, she looks at her rear view mirror to looks at the sleeping Jessica in the back seat

“she sure drinks a lot” yuri said trying to start a conversation

“oh, jessi isn’t like that before, by the way do you know her?” tiffany said averting her gaze from the car window to yuri

“really? Yeah, I know her, I saw her on an event before, and we have to do an interview with her”

“oh”

“may I ask, why she;s behaving like that now?”

“I don’t really know, I’m her best friend but sometimes she won’t tell me if she have a problem and just keep it to herself”

“have you tried asking her, if she have a problem?”

“hmmm, no, because I know she wouldn’t tell it to me anyway”

“oh ok, anyway are we near now to her apartment?”

“yeah, just turn right, ok here we are”

yuri parks her car in front of jessica’s apartment

“thanks again,..uhm”

“I’m yuri, I fogort to introduce myself earlier”

“hehe, yuri thank you” tiffany said flashing her eye smile

“do you need help in getting your friend inside her apartment?” yuri asked tiffany who’s already out of the car and opening the door at the back seat, she looks like she’s having a hard time getting Jessica out of the car

yuri went out of her car and goes beside tiffany, who’s still trying to lift her friend

“let me help you” yuri said getting Jessica’s things first and giving it to tiffany

“here carry her bag instead”

“are you sure you can carry her by yourself?” tiffany said watching yuri getting Jessica out of the back seat

“yes, I’m sure”

yuri quickly lifts Jessica out of the back seat bridal style and walks to the front door with tiffany following her, tiffany gets the keys inside jessica’s bag and opens the door, yuri then goes inside first as tiffany switch on the lights

yuri went to the living room and lay Jessica on the sofa

“yuri it’s late I think you should go home now, I’ll take care of Jessica, thank you again” tiffany said taking off jessica’s heels

yuri nods and exits jessica’s apartment, she quickly went back to her car and starts to drive back to her apartment

===================================================================

yuri arrives at her apartment, when she was about to come out of her car, she looks at her rear view mirror and notice something at the backseat

“what’s that?”

she went out of her car and go to the backseat, there she saw a cellphone

“Jessica might have dropped this when I carried her out of the car a while ago, I’ll juts return this to her tomorrow”

===================================================================

Tiffany carried Jessica to her bedroom

“yuri” Jessica mumble from her sleep, tiffany is covering Jessica with a blanket, she thought Jessica is awake but the girl is peacefully sleeping, she sits on the floor and looks at the sleeping girl

“yuri? She already went home jessi” tiffany said brushing off some hair out of jessica’s face, she yawns, and give’s Jessica one last look then she stood up.

“I’ll be sleeping in the living room sofa again,  I been sleeping there for about a week now..jessi please don’t get drunk again…” tiffany said and went out of jessica’s bedroom
