“How did you manage to get this back? Our old dorm, I mean? I have a hunch that Sunny made it possible?” Jessica smiled upon imagining the third eldest among them, pulling the strings to get their old dorm back.

Yoona’s smile widened upon remembering the revelation that her Sunny-unnie had made while they were watching over an unconscious Jessica in a private room inside the terminal just moments after the Jung’s arrival.

“In truth, Sunny-unnie had actually asked her uncle to preserve this place – not to let go of the SoShi lair even though we had decided to step down from our pedestal years ago and had stopped sleeping here.”

Jessica lifted her head, eyes widened at her dongsaeng’s revelation, gaze shifted to her older sister, beseeching confirmation of the tale. Taeyeon smiled at her, nodding to confirm Yoona’s account.

This is beyond beautiful for a moment.

A silly childlike music reminiscent of a nursery hymn disturbed the moment. Yoona brought out her phone from her pocket, a frown surfaced upon seeing the reminder that flashed on her screen. She looked up to meet her unnies’ curious eyes.

“My visit’s up. I have class in a few.” Yoona pouted, refusing to leave the room.

The older ones blinked before their demeanor became stern. Yoona knew she was g
