Chujin's POV

After we're done eating, Chunhee eyed me. " You can take Winwin to look around the house since it's going to be his second home soon. "

My eyes widened as I looked over at Winwin who's smiling from ear to ear.

" That's my room, that's Miss Won's, that's the bathroom. That's about it. " I said and he nodded while looking around.

A smile crept up on my face as I grabbed his wrist and dragged him over to the corner of the house. I smiled, " And this is Bbang's bed. " I point at a little pink bed that Bbang is laying on now.

" Let's not bother her while she's asleep. " He said and I nodded.

I walked over to my room and he stood outside. I looked over at him, " Come in. " I said and he gulped before stepping into my room.

I chuckled, " Why? Are you shy? " He shook his head.

Clearly this guy can't lie well.

" This is my room. " I said and he looked around.

His eyes wandered over to my bed, " You seem like a very neat person. " I said and I shrugged.

" I used to hate packing my bed because I feel like I'm going to sleep here every night so there's no point packing it. " I said.

I looked over at my bed, " Miss Won had to pay me 1,000 won everyday so that I'll pack my bed. " I chuckled.

Winwin chuckled, " I envy your relationship with your sister. You guys seem close. " I furrowed my brows.

" Aren't you close to your sister too? " I nodded.

" We're close but not to the point where she'd pay me 1,000 won to pack my bed. She probably doesn't care if I pack it or not. " He said, causing the both of us to chuckle.

We fell into a few seconds of silence as I looked over at him.

His eyes wandered around the room before it landed on my table. I looked over at what he was looking at. A slight smile formed on my face as I walked over to pick up the photo frame.

I raised it up slightly, " Were you looking at this? "

Winwin nodded, " You must be wondering where are my parents and why aren't they living with us. " He wanted to nod but seemed afraid to do so.

I chuckled, " Don't worry about it. Many people asked me this question so I'm used to it. " I looked over at the photo.

" That's my mom, my dad, Miss Won, myself and my little sibling. " I said as I point over at my mom's belly.

I smiled slightly, " Everyone in this picture except Miss Won and I are in heaven now. " I pursed my lips as I looked over at Winwin.

His eyes softened as he looked at me. " Why are you looking at me like that? I'm fine! " I chuckled.

He pulled me into a hug, " You don't have to hold in your emotions when you're with me. " I smiled as I wrapped my arms around him.

" You too. " I pat his back slightly.

I released from the hug as I sat on my bed and he sat beside me. " Do you mind if you tell me more about your family? " He asked and I shook my head.

" My parents will be so happy to know that you want to know more about them. " I smiled as I looked down at the photo.

" They passed on just as they were about to find out the gender of my sibling. They were on the way to the hospital when a drunk driver crashed into them. " I held in my tears as flashbacks of what happened that day flashed in my head.

Ring! Ring!

The house phone rang repeatedly as I frantically looked around for Chunhee.

" Chujin! Answer the phone! " She screamed from the bathroom and I nodded before walking over to the phone to pick it up.

My parents told me not to answer the phone unless Chunhee or my parents are there with me.

I held the phone up to my ear, " Hello? "

" Chujin, it's m-mommy. " I furrowed my brows as I heard the weak voice of my mom from the other side of the phone.

" Chujin, always r-remember that m-mommy and daddy l-loves you and C-Chunhee very much. W-We will do anything t-to see you guys be h-happy. " I could sense that my mom was crying.

I gulped, " T-Take c-care of y-y-yourself and C-Chunhee. M-Mommy and daddy i-is going s-somewhere f-faraway and we will s-see you when you and C-Chunhee are o-old. " She sniffed.

" I-I love you, Chujin. " She said.

I couldn't make sense of what was happening at that time. Just in time, Chunhee came hopping down the stairs. " Mommy. " I said as I handed the phone over to her.

" Hello? " She answered the phone.

" Mommy? Where are you? " Tears started rolling down her cheeks as I stood there, trying to make sense of what was happening.

After a few minutes, she started bawling. " Mommy! Mommy! Are you okay? Mommy! Answer me! Mommy! " She screamed.

Seeing her scream like that made me tear up as I walked over to hug her.

Tears rolled down my face as I thought of what happened back them. " Thank god I still have Miss Won by my side. " I sniffed.

Winwin passed a piece of tissue to me and I wiped my eyes. " Afterwards, we moved in to live with our grandparents but when we were teenagers, they left too. "

" Miss Won rented an apartment here using the money that the both of us earned during our part-time job. " I said.

I smiled, " Oh! And I started calling her Miss Won because of a very dumb reason. We were watching dramas as a kid and you know how in the office they called each other by Miss or Mr? " He nodded.

" She told me that since I'm older, I should respect her by calling her Miss Chunhee but that's too long for me to say so I called her Miss Won instead. " He smiled.

Winwin pinched my cheek, " Why are you so adorable since young? " He pinched my other cheek at the same time.

I stared blankly at him. " Do you enjoy seeing me in pain? " He chuckled as he released.

I massaged my cheeks, " Is your cheeks still pain? " I nodded and he pursed his lips.

His eyes lit up as he tapped me, " I know a way to make it stop hurting. " I raised my brows as I turned to face him, wanting an actual cure to my painful cheeks.

What he did shocked me.

He gave me a peck on my cheeks.

My mouth opened slightly, shocked at what he just did. Winwin moved away from me and I could see that he's blushing really hard too.

All is well until I heard a giggling sound.

I have a bad feeling.

I looked over at the door to see Chunhee leaning against the door frame with her phone.

She looked up at us.

" Don't mind me, just continue. "
