SingJiYooRa's Sleepover

"It hurts" Minji's eyes were swollen from tears mouthing the words as she woken up from a dream. It was already 7:45 in the morning and she knew that she is already late for school.

"Rachel, where are you?" She got up from bed and proceeded to kitchen and saw her older brother cooking breakfast.

"Hey, goodmorning sis" Soo Hyun was flipping the pancakes before looking up to her sister as he glanced to her little sister, he could see that she looked like a mess and could see that she cried. He furrowed his eyebrows and was startled at the sudden hug from the younger girl.

Minji smacked his brother's head as she let go of the hug and said: "Yah!, you didn't wake me up, Oppa. Now I'm late for school"

He widened his eyes and reverted back "Aisssh, you're a grown up woman, Minji"

"I know, but you should have atleast make an effort to do it for me. I just had a bad dream" Minji looking down fidgeting her fingers and was about to cry. Soo Hyun noticed the change of mood of his little sister and put his arms around Minji and she broken down to tears while hugging back her older brother tightly.

"I dreamt about her again, Oppa. It's still painful. I wish I have been there and apologize. But I'm too late" Minji weeped.

Soo Hyun cupped Minji's face and stared at her face with concerned look but Minji looked away. "Hey, look at me, it's not your fault, okay? That happens and the only thing that you should do right now is to forgive yourself. I know it's hard to move on, but you have to. It's in the past. They will not be happy to see you like this, Minji. I don't like to see you like this at all" He pinched Minji's cheeks and smiled at her.

"How can you endure my annoying and prideful ass, Oppa?" She said wiping her tears and manage to smile. He paused for a moment and glanced at her.

"You're the only family I have left, Minji" He smiled.

"And you are late" He added.

"I don't feel like going to school, Oppa" He raised an eyebrow thinking that this is unusual of her to not go to school.

"Yah!, you still have to go to school, Minji" He said with a serious tone.

She smiled and nodded at her brother while raising her hand on defeat.

She ran towards their classroom and could hear that Mr. Park have already started his lesson, she opened slowly the back door and tiptoed to her seat. Yoohyeon saw her and shushed her but their Mr. Park caught her and reprimanded her. She stood up straight, waiting for the teacher to speak up.

"Kim Minji, you're late. Glad that you care to show up. That's one demerit for you Ms. Kim." Minji nodded.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Park. Not gonna happen again" She bowed down and proceeded to her seat. Bora was surprised at the kind gesture of Minji, Siyeon as well.

"Kim Minji, saying sorry, she must be out of her mind" Bora inwardly said.

It was lunch and Siyeon still couldn't believe that Minji did that.

"Did I clearly heard you apologizing?" Siyeon widened her eyes from shock. Minji just smile from the weirdness of her friend, barely touching her food.

"And I can see that your eyes are swollen, what's up?" Siyeon concernly asked. Minji nervously looked up to Siyeon.

"I cried last night, watching some kdramas, Si. That's why my eyes are a mess" Minji lied. Siyeon didn't believe it but she no longer ask more questions.
