Cherie go to her room and change to jeans and sweater and wear her favorite blue converse sneaker.

 “Where are you going?” Ask Mir when Cherie pass by them at hall.

 “Walks.” Cherie said with smiles. Eien and Indy just smile at her because they know that what she always do if she has something distract in her mind. The only consulting and treatment Cherie need is walks and get her mind straight again.

 “Did something happen in Muju?” Ask Indy when Seungho join them and seat next to G.O.

 “Who? Cherie?” Ask Mir. He seat next to Eien and Indy.

 “Yup.”

 “Alex asked me to sing for her right after we check in.” Seungho said.

 “Why? Did Alex said anything?” Ask Eien.

 “He said she having some hard time. Why you ask?”

 “No.” Indy give Eien some eyes signal and she stand up and reach her phone. Eien call Alex and ask what happen to Cherie at Muju.

 “What happen?” Ask Indy slowly but all of them already put attention to Eien.

 “Robert throw files to Cherie face in front of others manager including Alex and Steven. Robert not satisfied with Cherie just because she late 5 minute and ask her to redo her design all over again.” Explain Eien. Now Seungho know why Cherie working all night. 

 “Who is Robert?” Ask G.O. Eien and Indy look at each other.

 “Robert is Cherie and Steven father but they have different mother.” Answer Indy. All of them watch on going drama on T.V again.

 Time tick goes by, Cherie still not back. Mir and G.O already go to sleep in their room. Joonie and Indy is playing video games. Eien read her book and listen to her MP3. Cheondung and Seungho playing games on their I– pad. It’s already 11pm and Indy start to worry. Between 3 of them, Indy playing mother roles and Eien is youngest daughter and Cherie the older daughter. She call Cherie but it going to her voicemail.  

 “Do you want to go with me looking for Cherie?” Ask Indy to Eien.

 “I will go with you.” Joonie said. 

 “jeongmal?”

 “Yea. It’s already late and not so safe if 2 women walk together.”

 “Araso.”

 “Call me if anything.” Eien said and continue with her book. When the book really interesting it very hard to breaks it from Eien until it finish. Indy grab her jacket and they out. Cheondung go to sleep and Seungho making coffee and seat on the balcony waiting for they to come back.

 Indy and Joonie walks into the dark night with a lot of star in the sky. Winds blows make the night air colder. Instead looking for Cherie, Joonie enjoy to walks like this. Free for once a while. The winds make him calm and relax.

 “You like walking like this?” Ask Indy.

 “Yea. It feel good, away from fans and media.” 

 “It must be really tired, huh?”

 “When it’s really means for meet the fans, it’s good but if it for personal then it will chaos. But what to do this is life that we choose to be a singer. I don’t regret it.”

 “Then it good. We all have to choose what best for us and this is what you want to do. Like me and Eien. We travel far from home to be here with our favorite idol while we do for living.”

 “ How do make this big decision?”

 “ First, Cherie ask Steven to find job for us and we think it not a bad idea. So here we are. Cherie help us a lot. She gave us place to stay and work. But still if this work not good for us, we still can go back to New York.”

 “So, this is all Cherie idea.”

 “Yup but I feel bad for her. She come to Seoul to help her father but we never know the main reason. She study in interior design but doing hotel management and have to study again too.” 

 “Maybe she really want to help.”

 “ Cherie already buy a new home and build her own small firm with her friend in architecture. Since we came here she always tense and seem like she suffer in silent. She never talk about her family except Steven. We never met her father.”

 “Why did her father treat her like that?’

 “Nobody know. Cherie don’t talk about her father. What we know her father send her to New York when she just 8 years old together with her aunt and he never visit Cherie.”

 “Never? Not even once?”

 “Nope. Never.” 

 “So, what about you and Eien? What you do before you came here?’

 “ Eien is working in ELLE magazine as Asst. Editor and me in T.V station as production team.”

 “So, that’s why Eien know about fashion.”

 “Yea.”
