Somin and Pomchun
"Why the long face, Bambi?" Her older brother studied her as he walked by her side He glanced at her sipping a coffee, remembering how she liked it. She was always a wide-eyed scared child, however, Somin only tolerated it when he called her that. From her parents, it sounded more like a taunt at her naiveté and youthful features.
"I'm very tired." The dark circles under her eyes were badly covered by makeup.
"I like your short hair, however pink is a weird color for you. You look more like a kindergartener. How do you wanna find a new boyfriend looking like this?" Pomchun hugged her some more, being genuinely happy to see his little sister.
"The fringe looks fire on you though!"
These sentences sounded like ordinary statements, yet his care and forgotten love were the last straw, she started to cry silently in his arms.
"Life has been hard, I don't know how to go on or what to do," she confessed suddenly.
"Oh, Bambi, I'm so sorry for not being here with you. Should I go kick his ass?" The older boy sounded tough, even though he was the softest one she had ever known.
"Just be with me today, please." Her tears fell to his shirt. The frosty morning made their coffee colder.
...
I guess she must have loved him very much. He felt the pain of their lost bond.
Even though she was known as his uncool younger sister at elementary school, he would find time to hang out, to share secrets. The pretty boy loved talking to her.
Protecting her when she was the butt of the joke.
...
"What do you say, we go to our rehearsal room? Somewhere warm?" Her loving brother offered to escape from the chilly street, seeing loneliness in her eyes.
"Today I'm all yours," he said, wiping her tears compassionately.
"Would you sing for me if we go there?" Somin was slowly calming down.
"Gladly." He winked.
"Is it alright if we're joined by my friend?" she asked.
"New love interest?" he poked.
"No, just a close friend. Shy, talented, pretty handsome." Somin looked at Pomchun.
"I can't control myself when there are shy, talented, pretty handsome boys around." He laughed at his joke, eyes sparkling with interest.
"I forbid you to mess with this one." Her voice suddenly sharpened, "Are you listening? You can't." Somin freaked out for a moment.
"Yeah, yeah. I won't. Foremostly I don't have time," Pomchun joked.
