HyeYoon sat across from SeungHyun, her hands clasped together on the table in front of her. SeungHyun sat back in his chair, which seemed relaxed, but in fact was a way of covering up fear. Then, SoRa brought a cup of coffee for HyeYoon and walked over to SeungHyun and lightly put her hand on his shoulder. His shoulders relaxed instantly at the touch of her hand and took a deep breath. 

"Thank you so much, SoRa sshi," HyeYoon said, smiling. Seeing SoRa's unresponsiveness, she remembered that the young lady could not hear. She bowed instead, and that was enough for SoRa to notice and understand what she wanted to say.

"I'll be in the other room, then," SoRa said politely and was about to turn around, when SeungHyun grasped her hand. "Don't go," his hand was saying. SoRa looked from his hand to HyeYoon and back to his hand, not knowing what to do or say.

HyeYoon smiled. "It's fine, please stay, SoRa sshi. I think it's better that way," she said, gesturing her to sit down. Still wondering, SoRa bowed slightly and took a seat next to SeungHyun. "JiYong ah, please stay too. I also want you to know what I'm going to say." JiYong, who had been awkwardly standing between the living room and the entrance, let out a short breath and walked over to sit in the final chair next to HyeYoon.

"YES!" DaeSung suddenly stood up, shocking everyone around the table. He apologized and sat back down immediately, but his excitement did not die down. "SeungHyun sshi, yes, that HyeYoon person. Who is she?" he asked, leaning his body in.

"Umm," SeungHyun startled at the sudden interest. "I believe it's SeungHyun sshi's older sister."

"Sister?! Hyung had an older sister?" DaeSung asked, dumbfounded.

"Yes, and from what I heard, she was the only one who did not oppose the relationship. She rather supported them," SeungHyun explained. "She and SeungHyun sshi's relationship was never bad and they were close since they were young. But after SeungHyun sshi moved out of the house, they became distant. I hear she's been trying to get in touch with him as often as possible, but most of the times SeungHyun sshi doesn't respond."

"I wonder why SeungHyun sshi doesn't respond to HyeYoon sshi," YoungBae said, crossing his arms across his chest. "I mean, if they were so close, why would he reject her?"

"Maybe he feels guilty," SeoNam said. Everyone turned to him with a curious expression. "Running away from home isn't only running away from the parents, but also the siblings too. He probably doesn't know how to face his sister because they were so close."

"That may be the case," YoungBae agreed. "I just hope the two of them can make up sometime soon."

While everyone nodded in agreement, DaeSung asked SeungHyun, "What does she look like?"

"I heard she looks just like SeungHyun sshi. They were sometimes even mistaken as twins," SeungHyun answered.

SoRa couldn't stop looking at her, as she was the prettiest, no, the most beautiful person she has ever seen before. All of her facial features were sharp, yet she still had an air of a kindness instead of intimidation. Her makeup brought out only the minimal, not too much emphasis on any one feature, but just enough to outline her eyes and lips. Her black hair was long and straight, gleaming in the light and swaying gently in the wind from the open windows. Her fingernails were painted perfectly with a sky blue manicure that matched her overall impression; cool yet calming and kind. 

More than anything, she resembled SeungHyun. SoRa had heard from SeungHyun about his older sister a few times, but never imagined them to be so similar. They had the same eyes and nose, and they gave off the same vibe. It was no surprise when SoRa felt like they knew each other even though it was the first time the two of them have actually met each other.

"Nice to meet you, SoRa sshi," HyeYoon spoke. "I'm Choi HyeYoon, SeungHyun's older sister."
