"Minho~~" I called cheerfully.
"Oh hey Miyoung." He grinned. "What's up?"
"Nothing much...I'm on my way to go grocery shopping."
"Oh cool....can I come over?"
"No!!" I shouted a little to suddenly.

Minho stopped walking and turned to face me.

"Why are you acting so weird lately??"
"Wh-what do you mean...?"

He sighed.

"Never mind. Cya." Minho walked away.

~~~~~

"Noona~~~"
"Hi Zelo" I giggled, reaching up to ruffle his hair.
"How was school?"
"Ah it was alright....I'm about to cook dinner soon. Where's everyone else?"
"I think they're upstairs...Himchan Hyung said he had a video to show everyone, but that I wasn't allowed to watch." He pouted.
"Why not?" I put away the groceries, laughing.
"Apparently I'm not old enough..."

I paused, and sighed. They were still boys I guess. Nothing was going to change that. I shuddered thinking about it though. They were probably using my computer. Gross.

"Oh hey guess what? I got a cheesecake on sale! We can have that for dessert, and-"
"Miyoung?"

I froze.

"Who are you talking to...?" Minho's voice got closer.
"N-no one!!" I rushed out of the kitchen to go and block his path.

Minho stared at me.

"Why have you been acting so weird lately?"
"I-I don't know what you're talking about."
"You've been acting weird for a long time now...what's going on?"
"Nothing! It hasn't been a long time-"
"It's been a week Miyoung. You've been acting weird for a week."
"WHAT. A WEEK???"

How had a week gone by?? Last time I checked, it had been 2 days! How had I not notice a week go by...

"Yes. A week. Now what's going on??"
"Nothing!" I insisted again.
"Why won't you tell me?" He shouted now. I flinched.

I could see Zelo coming out of the kitchen.

"I-I can't-"
"Why not?? Haven't I always been there for you? Always?? So what the hell! This is what I get?"
"I-I'm sorry Minho..." Tears started to form.
"Whatever." He growled.
"Minho..."
"No. I'm done. I don't even care anymore."

And just like that, he his heels, and slammed the door behind him.

For a few seconds, I just sort of stood there. Not thinking anything. Then I fell to my knees, and started to cry. Zelo immediately rushed forward and held me.

"Z...Zelo..." I hiccuped between cries.
"Shh...Noona...it's okay..."
"N-n-no it's not." I insisted. "He was my only friend. And he's right. B-but I couldn't tell him."

Zelo remained silent for a while, then he took a deep breath.

"Never back back back
왜 많은 사람들은 기쁨보다 슬픔을 더 더 크게 생각하는지
(Why do so many people think of sadness more than joy?)
Run my way way way
왜 너무나도 얇은 귀 걱정뿐야 남들 말에 휩쓸려 걸어가는 길
(Why are people so easily influenced? I’m worried that I will walk on this path, swayed by others words)
그들의 맘은 가난해 하지만 벗어날 수 있어
(Their hearts are poor but I can escape it)
다시 툭툭 털어내고 뛰어 갈 수 있어
(I will brush myself off and run once more)
일어나 한 번 더 Right now
(Get up once more, right now)
 No more pain goodbye goodbye
약해진 날 벗어 던지고 나를 이겨내겠어 bring me back to me
(I will shed and throw away my weakness and overcome myself, Bring me back to me)
No more cry goodbye goodbye
이 세상을 뛰어 넘겠어 alright 
(I will jump over this world alright)"

Then he coughed.

"Ah...I'm sorry Noona...I really can't sing as well as Daehyun Hyung or Youngjae Hyung....Ah geez I'm so useless...."

I blinked, and smiled through my tears.

"I love your singing voice Zelo. And it makes me feel better."
"Really...?"

I nodded, and cried silently on Zelo's shoulder while he sang softly.
