Jessica POV:
Passengers of flight number KA8672 departing for Singapore …….. Finally we escaped all the paparazzi and media’s flashlights and boarded our plane. Everyone was very excited after they are seated as we are given time to go shopping or exploring in Singapore this time round. Usually we would leave back for Korea immediately after our performances or our schedules would be very tight but surprisingly, this time is an exception, we were given so much freedom for this trip that we spent hours after practice during the past few days researching about the country we were visiting. Taeyeon unnie researched for Singapore’s good dishes. I am not sure what my other members wanted to do in Singapore but I know Fany would be on a tour group, her brother Stefan lived in Singapore before being reunited with her last year and he offered to bring Fany on a tour of Singapore, he also wanted to show Fany about the place which he had called home for almost his entire life. For me, my main objective is to gather more clues about my long lost younger brother. It would be a miracle if I can find him within my stay at Singapore, hence I did not place any expectation on that matter.
“Sica unnie are you ok? We are going to Singapore why do you seem so gloomy?” our maknae Seohyun asked, she is so observant…. Compared to the rest of the members I did not talk as much as they do. Sigh I should bark up on my acting skills…. “Aigoo our maknae is so caring! Don’t worry I am fine, it’s just that I want to rest now so I would be energetic when we reach Singapore!” ……..
Few hours later
We arrived at Singapore! Wow there are so many fans waiting for us. All of them seem to be teenagers, don’t they have to go to school? But nevertheless I was very happy to see so many of them welcoming us to their country. Some of them even gave us food and souvenirs! I love our fans so much! I love Sones. Just then, I saw a familiar name on someone’s shirt …….
Flashback to the day before leaving Korea
1300hrs at ABC Shopping Centre’s Starbucks
“Ms Jessica, here is your Dark Mocha Frappuccino, have a nice day!”
I bowed and took the drinks to my seat. Sigh, packing for the trip to Singapore tomorrow is so tedious…. I almost fell asleep while packing, hence I decided to get a cup of Starbucks and hopefully keep myself awake……
I was enjoying the scenery outside of the shopping mall from my seat when suddenly my phone ringed. It was an unknown number but I still picked it up as my instincts told me to……. “Yobseyo?” “ Hi Ms Jessica Jung I am one of the staff from the United States embassy in Korea , my name is Larry and I was told by my superior to update you about the latest clues regarding your lost brother”
I was shocked and nervous, my heart was beating very fast…..” Your lost brother’s full name is Lionel Jung Soo Man and he is confirmed to be in Singapore. The alleged kidnapper did not bring Lionel out of Singapore and recently Lionel has went to the embassy to claim for a new passport to be made and it is processing, He is in good shape and his guardians treats him very well. If you can make a trip to the US embassy in Singapore we might be able to arrange for him to come down and reunite with you.
Give the Singapore embassy a call when you are free, my superior told me that u were going to Singapore for a performance. He is a huge fan of SNSD hence he is very aware of where are you group’s concert. I will send you the address of the embassy in Singapore, the office number and someone whom I referred the case to in the Singapore branch, thank you for your time Ms Jessica!”
“Thank you!” I exclaimed. Well now I finally know my brother’s name! After so many years….. Soo Man... Isn’t that my boss? Lee Soo Man President of SM Entertainment? haha. What a coincidence….. By then, I wanted time to quickly pass and reach Singapore ASAP!
Flashback end.
This shirt has the word “LIONEL” printed on it. The guy turned around and I saw that I was just a football team’s jersey…….
Few hours later
Ok we checked into our hotels and was given the rest of the day off. We were living at one of the hotels near Singapore’s Universal Studios, located on an island called Sentosa. The members went on their own ways to spend the remaining part of this off day. I was preparing to head for the US Embassy in Singapore. I had already contacted the embassy. The company assigned drivers for us and I asked mine to drive me to the embassy.
I was told at the reception that Mr Blake, the guy Larry shared my case with, was having a meeting and it would end probably around and hours’ time. “I am so sorry, Mr Blake is currently in the middle of a meeting and it would end probably in an hour. You might want to come back later …” I went back to the car and asked my driver to drive me to the nearest Starbucks outlet.
15 minutes later….
Wow this shopping mall is not as crowded as I had expected. Oh well now is within the working hours, I guess that’s why the malls are free of people. Less people means more privacy, which is what I prefer! Now I can enjoy my coffee in peace, but first, I must find where the Starbucks is located in this mall. Wow there are so many attractive shops that I would want to visit here, but I did not want to create unnecessary attention as I am not sure if people know my identity. I shall keep a low profile, go and get coffee, and spend my time peacefully. Coffee, here I come!!!!
I have been walking around for 10 minutes and where is Starbucks?? Sigh I’m craving for coffee so much right now ugh! Ok I had enough already, I want my Starbucks!!! I shall approach someone for directions ….
Just then I spotted a teenage boy in black whose back was facing me .I walked up to him.
“Excuse me, may I know where’s Starbucks located at?”
The teen turned around, he was wearing Starbucks shirt, with a nametag that says “LIONEL”
“I work there, I can take you there, follow me ….” He did not finish his sentence and his facial expression changed immediately the moment we made eye contact….
