Chapter 57

"Guess who," a voice called out as a pair of warm hands covered her eyes.

"Joongi Oppa..." I said quietly.

"You're no fun," he said as he let me go. I turned around and gave him a small smile.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, looking around to see if he was with anyone else.

"My sister came back from the states to visit me," he said happily. "I forgot to tell you."

...

His sister?

...

"You didn't tell me anything about that," I said, looking at him.

"When I was in the states, she mentioned that she wanted to visit. We were supposed to come back together, but I left first," he said, looking around. "She's around here somewhere..."

"UNNIE!!!!!!!!"

Before I could turn, I felt arms wrap around me from behind. A girlish laugh came from behind as I almost tripped.

"Sejeong!?" I cried out.

The arms loosened and I turned around, surprised to see a young girl with big bright eyes and a really big smile.

"UNNIE! I MISSED YOU!" she cried out.

I smiled weakly. I had only met Sejeong three or four times in the states. She was going to school somewhere else in the states. She was a few years younger and still attending school. From the first time that I've met her, she seemed to treat me as if we were best friends since birth.

"I missed you too," I said. She was still holding my hands.

"Why don't you eat with us?" Sejeong asked, looking at me and then to her brother. "We're going to cook at his apartment!"

I looked at Joongi. "I don't want to intrude—"

"Of course you wouldn't! You're like family already!" Sejeong said smiling widely. She leaned in closer towards my ear. "I heard that you know Lee Jimin!!! We have to talk!!!!"

I forced a smile and nodded. She suddenly linked arms and pulled me towards the checkout counters.

...

......

...

Joongi was a very good cook. Even though I tried to help, he refused and told me to go talk with Sejeong.

"Unnie! Sit here," Sejeong said, pulling me to the sofa, away from the kitchen. "Oppa sent me Lee Jimin's autograph! He told me it was you who knew him!"

I smiled and nodded.

"So how did you know him?!"

"He's my brother..." I said softly.

Sejeong's eyes widened. "Really?!?!"

I nodded. "Next time...when he comes back...I'll set up an appointment with you..."

"You're the best Unnie!" Sejeong said, smiling widely. "No wonder Oppa picked you out of all the other girls!"

I gave a hesistant smile and then looked elsewhere.

...

It was quiet.

...

"So...I hear that you've been working at the hospital?" Sejeong asked, trying to start a conversation.

"Yes..."

"Maybe...you could give me a tour," Sejeong said. "I'm staying a while longer..."

"Okay."
