I sit up on my bed.  I haven’t slept properly for days.  My, what was suppose to be, short vacation has turned into a long break.  I turn on my phone and look skim through the tons of messages and missed phone calls.  ‘I think I have been absent from the real world for too long…’ I dial a number.  “Hello…”
“AH MOR RI!!” the person shouts.

“Ack, do you need to be so loud….” I say.

“WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?” the person says totally ignoring me, “I have called countless of times and have left many messages! I was about to call the police!”

“Mian-hae Vivi…I just had a lot in my mind,” I confess.

“Good thing Jung Yong Hwa oppa contacted me and told me where you are! I promised him I wouldn’t bother but seriously! You should have at least sent me a message!” she says.

‘Yong Hwa oppa….’ “I didn’t mean to give you so much stress…I just needed some time to myself,” I tell her.

“Don’t worry about it. Take your time. I’ll handle everything over here until you come back,” she assures me.

“Gamsahabnida, Vivi.” I tell her.

“And let me know if you need anything.  Even if it is someone to talk and listen, I’ll be there for you,” she says to me.

“Ok….” I tell her. We hang up.

...

“I hope she is okay. Hopefully, Kim Hyun Joong oppa isn’t giving her too much trouble,” Vivi says as she walks out her apartment.
