"Have you ever thought about your future, Jongin?" Aeri asked.   He shrugged in response, "Maybe a dancer? I don't even know if my parents would allow that."   Aeri smiled encouragingly, "Don't put your dreams down, Jongin."   His heart fluttered, Aeri was just such a kind girl, how on earth did he manage to have he as a girlfriend?   "Do you know what you want to be?" Jongin countered.   She smiled, "If you become a dancer, then I'll support you from the sidelines. I can be your manager or something, how cool would that be?" She laughed at the mere thought; it was so unrealistic but funny at the same time.   Jongin laughed too, and they both savoured the comfortable silence.   They had gotten so close, nothing seemed to have the capability to break them apart.    Until that night when Aeri finally let curiousity take over her, and she stepped on Jongin's forbidden line. ---------- Jongin was thrashing around, screaming a particular name in horror and fear as sweat poured down his face while he was in his slumber.   Alarmed, Aeri ran towards his room, and immediately woke him up from his nightmare. His eyes opened and his body jolted up abruptly, his breaths heavy and his whole body was trembling in fear.   "Jongin, are you alright?" Aeri asked worriedly, placing her palm on his hot and sweaty forehead.   He nodded while gulping, "I'm fine, it was just a nightmare."   Aeri's eyes narrowed to slits, and she just knew that something was wrong. He seemed so traumatised, and acted like she did when she was molested by her stepdad.   It didn't help either that Jongin had been screaming "noona" repeatedly, and she couldn't help but wonder what his sister had done that could make the mighty and confident Jongin to wither cowardly.   "Jongin, you were yelling noona repeatedly." she informed him and stared into his eyes.   Jongin's heart started racing, and he turned his head away, avoiding her gaze steadily.    He felt her warm hands clutch his sweaty ones, making his heart flutter a little.   "Jongin, if you need to tell someone about this, you can tell me. Did your sister do something to you?" she asked in a soothing tone.    She wanted Jongin to trust her like she trusted him. She wanted him to open up to her like she did about her family. She really, really did.   Jongin shook his head and his expression hardened. He gazed back at her with cold eyes and sneered, "You don't know anything about my sister. Don't pretend you know me well, because you know nothing. Just leave me alone."   The sudden change caused Aeri to furrow her eyebrows in confusion, and she slowly took her shaky hands off his, and stood up unsteadily. His words pierced her like an arrow, causing her heart to bleed profusely.    "Jongin, it's alright, I won't ask anymore. I...I'll go out for a bit." She finally uttered.   He turned his back on her, facing the wall and
