Night Changes. -----------------------------------------------     She woke up feeling the headache when she blinks once and twice. Jinri let out a soft groan making Taemin got up from the seat next to her bed and gently pressed the back of his hand on her forehead. "hey.." his voice is so soft and husky making Jinri open her eyes slowly to see him smiling softly before her. "Soojung" Taemin called out Soojung's name and she came in with Stella behind her.    "thank goodness. gosh i was so worried about you" mumbled Soojung before she take a sit on Jinri's bed and do the same thing as Taemin did before. Jinri blink once and twice again before she look down, in between the gap of Stella's and Soojung's arm, to see him sitting on the sofa at the end of her room with a long sigh escaped his mouth before he cover his face with his palms.    "what happened?" Jinri asked when she look back up to Soojung and Stella. "you've been passed out for more than 8 hours" murmured Stella before passing the cold cloth to Soojung. It's 10 passed 1AM but everyone is wide awake and she assumed that Jongin is here as well when she can hear his voice downstairs, probably talking to her dad.    Jinri hold Soojung's hand, preventing her to put the cold cloth on her forehead making Soojung furrow and look down to her. "can you ... leave us alone for a while?" she asked and both Stella and Soojung look back at the tired looking Taemin before nodding their head and got up from the bed.    "we'll be outside. just call us if you need anything" says Soojung to Taemin and he nods with a soft smile. Soojung pull the door closed and Taemin look straight to the bed where Jinri is. She noticed how much he'd changed for the past 6 years. His body became more masculine and he'd grown taller and looking a lot more like a 27 year old guy. He still have that face that she still longing to see and love.    "how are you feeling?" he asked softly when he walk closer to her bed and take a seat on the chair next to her bed. Jinri just shrug and turn to look away when she felt awkward to look at him, especially in this kind of situation. The room was so silent, that she can hear him breathing next to her. "Jinri i'm sorry about Minho" he murmured before he look at her who's giving him the back of her head. She shake her head a little without looking back at him.    "it's fine" she said with her coarse voice.    Silence ..    She didn't know what to say or talk about. She still have that angry feelings in her. She needs an explanation of what'd happened after 6 years. Did he ever think about her like she did? did he ever wondering how she'd been doing during those 6 years like she did?    Does he even care about her?   "things was not as great as you think Jinri... " he murmured out softly without looking at her. He keep his gaze down to his hands and played with his fingers. Jinri turn around to look at him and still in awe when she noticed how much he changed yet he still looks like the Taemin she loves back then.    "everything was complicated.. things changed. people changed. the world has changed.." he continued. "i know things were hard for you.. but i'm just as the same as you.." he heave a soft sigh before he shake his head a little.    "it must be hard for you to think right now. i'm sorry.." he got up from his seat and shake his head a little more without even look at her when she's hoping for him to at least give her one look after so many years.. "i should get going now" he murmured and how much Jinri wanted to say 'don't' , it didn't come out.    "take a nice long rest Jinri... take care of yourself .. please" and he look at her, pleading her to take his words. He's not hoping for anything but he knows that Jinri needs more time to think and today, right now is never a good time to think. She's been through a lot and he don't want her to go through that again.    "goodnight"    and he left.        And he was right. Things changed.. drastically. Ever since Minho was gone, Jinri realised how much her life has changed and how much it has impact her life. It was hard for her during the first few days and she even had to postponed the shows until further noticed. All she wanted to have right now is that one day gateaway from anything that she could go and erase off of her mind, her life.    All she wanted to do was to stay by the beach, listen to the waves and meditate and still trying to accept the fact that her brother is no longer here. Sometimes she'd go to bed, crying because she still couldn't accept it. It was all of a sudden and she wasn't ready for such things to happen in her life.    She'd seen Taemin few times in town and even though they didn't talk, he still give that soft smile to her, possibly feeling glad and happy that Jinri is slowly getting better.    It has been 3 weeks since the last time she saw him in this town and she knows that she's slowly getting much better as she trying to accept the painful facts. Soojung is always by her side when she's having a hard time and it was hard for Soojung at first when Jinri refused to talk a single bit and stay shut for almost a week but slowly she change and Soojung felt more than happy when she slowly pushing all those negativity aside and try to live positively.    She knows that Minho would hate seeing here like that; so she stopped.    Stella went back to New York last 3 days ago, she refused to head back and wanted to stay in Landcastle. She went to his grave and spent most of her free time there. It was hard for her as well when they were planning to get married in less than a month and everything was all set but things changed.    The wedding was supposedly to be this Saturday and Stella refused to stay around because she don't want people to get affected when she start to cry, especially Jinri. she tried so hard to look as strong as ever in front of Jinri but in fact she's just as weak and sad as Jinri. She gave Jinri a warm hug before she left and promised to come back even if she marry someone else, Minho is still her number 1. She's remember Jinri and her family for being so nice to her during her stay.    Jinri's happy that Stella still loves him even after his death.    He needs that love, she knows and glad Stella still showering him with her love.    Jinri stops before Soojung house and hug herself as it gets colder outside and the grey skies covering the bright blue skies. It's going to rain soon and Jinri sometimes hates rain, especially when the skies are grey. She knock on Soojung's door as she waits and look back at the beautiful garden that Soojung working on. She smile softly when she sees her favourite flowers are there; the tulips.    The door was pulled open and there was Soojung in her casual tops and a smile on her face when she sees Jinri. "come in, it's going to rain soon" she said and Jinri step in before taking off her coat off and hang it on the coat's hanger. "it's quite cold outside" murmured Jinri before she followed Soojung to the kitchen.    She nods before sitting on the stool at the kitchen island. "i'm baking some cookies. Jongin would be here any minute now. He's asking for some cookies" says Soojung before she clean her hands and start rolling the dough into a big ball before putting it on the baking tray. "you cook now?" though it was so soft and slow, Soojung was happy that she talks and trying to create a conversation rather than letting Soojung alone trying her best to keep the conversation going.    "i'm learning now" she smiles before Jinri and it made Jinri smile softly as well. She knows Soojung would do anything to please Jongin and plus it's not just for Jongin but to herself as well. "cooking is fun" she chuckles and that made Jinri chuckles softly before her and Soojung give her a cup of hot tea. "it's always been fun Soojung" she said and take a small sip of the tea   "especially when you have someone to cook for" she continued and take another sip in. Soojung hum a little before nodding her head. It's true, it's always fun seeing someone eating your food and see their reactions whether they like it or not.    It was silence and slowly they can hear few rain drops hits on the window at the kitchen that made both of them looking back to it. "It's raining...." murmured Jinri and Soojung look back at her "you're walking to get here didn'
