It was almost 12 when the Korean-Taiwanese duo reached their apartment... They unlocked the door and got inside... What welcomed them was a dark room filled with creepy silence...

"Unnie, Yuqi...Why are the lights off..Did y'all sleep already..Don't you want dinner?" Shuhua called out to the members as she put down the bags on the kitchen island, while Soojin tried to switch on the lights...

"Shuhua, I guess the electricity is down....Let me check their rooms .... "

Soojin disappeared into the darkness, away from Shuhua's flashlight, leaving her alone in the kitchen ... Shuhua looked outside the living room window, their neighbouring buildings had their lights on .... ' why wasn't theirs working '
Shuhua felt a bit uneasy.... She called out to Soojin...but nobody answered ... She could hear someone mumbling from the kitchen .... Was it Soojin.... Why wasn't she answering.... Shuhua walked over to the island to realise that the bags she brought from the store had disappeared.... Instead there was a box...
Suddenly, a light music started playing from inside the box, startling Shuhua, but the tune was soothing....it felt familiar to her ....

Was it ???

No....

There's no way.....

Oh wait....

It Is !!!!!

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHUHUAAA~~~~"

   The lights turned on, party poppers cracked from either side of Shuhua, revealing her unnies wearing animal costumes... Music played so loud in their apartment.... It took a second for the poor baby to realise what was going on....

Soojin hugged her, as a way to calm her nerves....With her comforting voice, Soojin said near Shuhua's ear,

"Happy birthday jagiya ~~"

- That sent a shiver down Shuhua's body, instantly calming her.... She rested her head on Soojin's shoulder for a second....to process everything.....

-

"YAAAAAAAAA, you almost gave me a heart attack!!!! Do you wish to die???"

- There, the YEH SHUHUA was back !!!!

-----------------------

All of the members were there, including Soyeon....The members staying late for the practice, Soyeon working late, the convenience store, everything was part of their surprise party plan...It was a small party so only some of their mutual friends from the company and some of Shuhua's close friends were invited.....The apartment was big enough to hold at least 20 people, so it was fine.... They cut the customised cake with Shuhua and her dog's figurines placed above it, and wished the birthday girl all the best for her future....They all played some games, exchanged both heartfelt and funny conversations, and mainly just ate and drank for the rest of the night... Everyone gave Shuhua birthday presents...Each of the members gave self written letters for their younger sister....

   It didn't take long for Yuqi to start an exclusive karaoke session with some of the most popular idols in Kpop.... The party was very lively....Shuhua was really grateful for her unnies... It's been a while since she went back to her home - since she saw her family.... But the members made sure that she doesn't feel the void.... Shuhua looked around her.... Minnie and Miyeon were busy gossiping about the new couple that formed during the MAMA awards... Soyeon was on her phone talking to one of the co-producers.. Yuqi was drunk-drunk and dancing to dumdi dumdi with her cowgirl hat.... And Soojin ---- was no where to be found .... where was she?

Shuhua searched for the fox girl in the living room, their bedroom and kitchen.... but she couldn't find her....at last she went to the balcony....
And there she was !!!
Taking in the moonlight - looking like an absolute goddess.... or maybe a devil... Something about Soojin kept attracting the younger girl towards her....
