"How did you know my house, by the way Riki?"

"Oh, Sunghoon hyung ask me to take care of you tonight." My brother did not just letting him to take care of me.

"I never thought that Sunghoon will do that." I look at him.

"He did not ask me specifically. I volunteer myself to take care of you."

Boom!

"Ahhhhhh!"

As soon as I shout, I can feel that I was in his embrace. It is so warm, and comfortable. I could be in his embrace for eternity.

"Riki, why don't you like me too?" I hugged him so tight that I don't want him to let go of me.

I can see his face was flustered as I ask that question.

That's cute of him.

"It's not like I reject you because I don't like you. It's for good." Now I know that he doesn't really hate me.

"Sunoo is it? Your ex?" I am so shock that he knew that.

"How did you-"

"He is my brother. I mean his dad adopt me." I don't even finish my sentence yet.

I just know about this. Never in my life to think that they were siblings, although not blood related, but

"I'm so sorry Riki." I pat his head, to calm him down.

He then fall asleep on my lap like a baby.

'I wish you could meet my mom, so that I can tell her how wonderful person you are, Riki. But surely, my mom will not like you.'

.

The morning has come, and I am on my bed?

As far as I think, last night I was babysitting Riki. And fell asleep while his head is on my lap. So, how come I am in my own bed right now?

I quickly get up from my bed. I smell something delicious from the kitchen and hurried up to see what is it.

French Toast!

"Good morning, Noona." I was so excited seeing the French Toast until I forget that Riki was in my house.

"Oh my god!"

"Eh, why noona?" He blink his eye so many times.

"I forgot that you are here, sorry." I pushed his body and quickly go to my bed, covering myself in the blanket because of shyness.

"Noona!" I can hear his voice calling for me.

Why did he suddenly change the way he call me? Betore this, he called me just by my name, and now, Noona?

Did something happen last night?

I can't seem to remember about it.

"Noona, breakfast is ready. Please come out and eat." He didn't stop calling for me.

"Okay, I will come out." Finally, I can answer him.

I sit down on the chair in the dining room. I stared at the perfectly cooked French Toast, with milk as today's breakfast.

"Before that, noona." I turn my head toward Riki.

And suddenly....

His soft lip touch my cheek.

He give me his kiss.

As I was too startled, I can't even say a thing.

"W-what was that, Riki?" He just smirked at me and act like nothing happen.

"Morning kiss."

What? Why would he give me a morning kiss?

"Why? For what Riki?" I just can't handle this situation really well.

"Don't you remember last night?"

I can't even recall anything from last night. My mind went blank. What happen last night?

"No, I remember nothing." I said, full of honesty.

"I love you, too noona."

Memories start flashing through my head.

.

"Riki, why can't you love me back?" I said while I was patting his head.

"I already like you."

"Why do you act like you doesn't love me and love me at the same time?" I sighed.

"I like you, noona. I really do. But, I can't tell you because of Sunoo hyung."

"I hate you."

"What noona?"

"I hate you because you don't like me bacause of Sunoo."

"Why?"

"If you really love me, then nothing else matter. Love me, Riki."

"I love you."
