Chapter 9 (part 4)> Noona ~

EunShi walks slowly, dragging her feet across the road. it's the 2nd day she came home rather late. it's because of the play. even though she didn't really have a big role in the play, Miss Son and her classmates forces her to stay. every time Jihyun makes mistake, she'll be the one to show her how to do it right. it's like she's the one who plays the Prince's part. but, she can't say no since Miss Son is the one who made her do that. the truth is, she feels bad for Jihyun. no matter what she did, Kibum will stomps his feet and tells her to do it again. her acting is not that bad, but everything is bad when u're talking about Kibum. he's someone who really pays attention to such detail. he's never satisfied whit so-so work. he wants perfection. that's Kim The Perfect Kibum for u.

All of the sudden, she thinks about Ahn, who's really quiet lately. she wants to tell her about her school's festival. because Ahn always said that she wants to come to her school festival. then, she recalled her short encounter with Jonghyun earlier that day...

Taemin: Noona~ wait for Taemin...

*Los Angeles...

Aunt Sally[Maid]: Miss Yoonji... (knocks door) please come out and eat something...
Yoonji: Sirheo! go away!
Aunt Sally: But, Miss...
Yoonji: I said sirheo!! now go!!
Aunt Sally: But... your mother will be mad at me if u don't eat...
Yoonji: I don't care!! (covers her ear with pillow)
Aunt Sally: (sighs and walks away)

Yoonji raise her head when she's sure that Aunt Sally is gone. slowly, she opens her laptop and open her mailbox. nothing much, she scrolls down and surf the net. she was just about to click 'off' when a chat window popped out of nowhere.

Yoonji: Ah! that startled me! who's the brat?? (looks)

Her eyes widened. it's one of her senior in her school. the truth is, it's the only Korean senior in her school. they never really talk to each other, because she's too shy to actually start a conversation. and that senior is also known because he'll never say a word first. but today, he suddenly starts a conversation with her. [well, chatting is a conversation right? :P] excited, and half-embarrassed, Yoonji replies to him and they starts chatting...

FishyHae: Annyeong haseyo! :)

MomoJi: Anyeong haseyo , sunbae ! :]

FishyHae: Feels so good to talk in Korean! \\(>_____<)//

MomoJi: (^____^) IKR ?

FishyHae: ㅋㅋㅋ ~ Why didn't u come to practice today? -ㅅ-


MomoJi: >.<" aiyak ! you know sunbae ?


FishyHae: Of course! i can't accept slackers u know? -__-


MomoJi: Mian ! ! i'm not feeling really well today . . >.<


FishyHae: Jeongmal??? :O r u ok ? ?


MomoJi: Ne , i'm ok now . . 


FishyHae: Aigoo... u should take care of urself... no sick-sick!


MomoJi: ? ? ?


FishyHae: Wae?


MomoJi: U write ' sick-sick ' . . LOL !


FishyHae: Yah! no laughing at ur sunbae! >_<


MomoJi: ㅋㅋㅋ . . but u're funny , sunbae ~


FishyHae: Ai, kiddo!! r u making fun of me?? want to be punished??


Momoji: Omo ! so scared ! ㅋㅋㅋ ~


FishyHae: Yah!!



Yoonji laugh. chatting with Donghae is really fun! before, she thought that he's someone who won't make lame and stupid jokes. he appears to be serious. but, after talking to him for awhile, she finds that he's a really funny and nice. they continue to chat until he said he needs to go to help his mother. she smiles. she feels a lot better after chatting with him. now, she feels hungry. before she heads to the kitchen, she stops in front of their family portrait. with a smile, she whisper to the photo, as if they can hear it...


Yoonji: Eonni, i guess i can tell u now... (smiles)
