"I'm back!" Riki screeched at the top of his lungs throwing his backpack on the floor along with his coat and shoes.
Chae-Young didn't reply. She was in the corner of the room.
He ran up to Chae-Young and went to hug her but stopped when he saw her.
Riki ran to her.
"Chae??"
Chae-Young was sweating.
In the Winter?
Something's wrong.
Riki shook her shoulders.
"What is going on?!"
Riki started to cry.
Why wasn't she responding?
Slowly Chae-Young opened her eyes and saw Riki in front of her, tears flooding town his rosy cheeks making his eyes swell up. Once he saw her open her eyes he immediately pulled her into a tight hug.
Chae-Young stroked his head assuring him she was okay.
But she wasn't.
She heard.. voices?
But not just any voices
Her parents voices.

"How was your day Noona?" Riki asked, handing her some noodles.
"It was great! I have some news but you might not like it.."
Riki raised his eyebrows and cleared his throat not knowing what to expect.
"Seo-Hyun got a boyfriend"
His eyes widened and he scoffed not saying anything.
"We'll I mean you didn't really think you'd have a chance with her did you? She's three years older than you!"
Riki rolled his eyes. He had had a crush on Chae-Young's bestfriend, Seo-Hyun, ever since he set eyes on her. "We'll I bet he's nothing compared to me"
Chae-Young laughs. "Who could top my baby brother and his jaw dropping visuals!"
"I'm not a baby Chae, not anymore. You're the baby around here" Riki smirks after receiving a light punch on the arm along with a cold look.
"Just because you looked after me in the hospital doesn't mean you can baby me" Chae-Young scoffs raising an eyebrow.
He pats her head and laughs.
Chae-Young playfully pushes his hand away laughing along with him.
"I love you kiddo"
Riki doesn't say anything but pulls her into a tight, loving hug.
"You know for someone who's three years older and tries to baby me, your height sure doesn't back up the fact that you're the baby here."
Chae-Young scoffs and walks away.
-skip to nighttime-
Chae-Young finished brushing her pearly whites and washing her face. She paced to her room after saying 'goodnight' to Riki.
At 3:14am she woke up, sweat dripping down her face panting. She was hot but cold at the same time. Once again her parents whispers hang her. Pulling the covers over her face and cupping her ears, Chae-Young cried herself back to sleep.
