I opened my eyes and found myself on a super comfy bed with awesome blankets over it which was over me now. But this is definitely not my room. All this while I had been starring at the ceiling and my blankets. So, I looked around the room and my eyes landed on a human being, sitting on the left of my bed with a small smile. It's a girl, probably older than me.

"Good morning. How are you feeling now?" She asked with the smile staying on her face.

"Um- I'm fine, I guess." For some reason, I couldn't bring myself to ask her directly who she was. So, I answered her question which wasn't that hard to answer.

"If you're wondering who am I, I'm Gu Jun- hae, Gu Jun-pyo's sister." She said with a chuckle. Gu Jun-pyo's sister? My eyes widened in shock and surprise. I didn't know he had a sister?

She must've figured out that I'm so shocked and at loss of words, by seeing my face. So, she continued talking, " Last night, I saw you standing with the guys, in rain. I'm sorry if my brother had made you stand out in rain that long, making you fall sick. I was on my way to visit Jan-di and found you. Jan-di had already told me about you. It's so nice to finally meet you." She looked so happy. I just gave a weak smile. She's exactly the sister figure. Jun-pyo's lucky to have her.

"How did I get here? Wasn't I kidnapped?" I asked her, recalling my last night's memory of me being thrown into the car.

"That was me." She laughed and I blushed in embarrassment. So, it was her who dragged me away from the guys, mainly Jun-pyo. Thinking about Jun-pyo, where's that empty- head?

"Oh! Okay!" I shifted in my bed awkwardly.

"Let me check your temperature again." With that she stood up from the chair, picked up something from the bedside table, that happened to be the thermometer and inserted into my mouth. I didn't refuse. She's being overly sweet and kind and I can't ruin it. I think they doesn't have that advanced thermometer which has to be inserted into your ear and you get a result in few seconds.

After a minute, she pulled it out and glanced at it, like a doctor. Is she a doctor? No, silly. Any normal person can do it. Duh.

"Thank God! Last night it was 101°F and now it had been reduced to 99°F." She said.

"Thanks." I said in a low voice.

"Don't say that." She held my hand and gave a squeeze. Awe, that felt good. I smiled.

There was silence for awhile and she broke the silence.

"Um- about Jun-pyo. I had heard about the whole red card thing. Before coming to that let me tell few things. Jun-pyo and I, even though were born in this family, we haven't received much love or care what the normal kids would receive. Jun-pyo, being the boy, was only looked up on as the Shinhwa's heir. Mom and dad never stayed at home and spent quality times with us. I moved on with this life but Jun-pyo spent most of his childhood alone at home. So, he grew up little aggressive with all the unwrapped emotions within himself. Other than that my Jun-pyo is a soft and warm person who would do anything for what he loves. And I think he likes you." She said. I was listening to all of it, word by word with a strange feeling in my heart. I was feeling really bad for Jun-pyo after hearing about his childhood. At least I had my mother to show me little love towards when I was a kid, though dad couldn't do much.

Just then the room door bursted open and Jun-pyo barged in. Can't he knock before entering a girl's room? What if I was half-naked or something? I made faces the minute he got to my bed and sat in the edge of it.

"Are you okay?" His voice came out above a whisper.

I didn't bother to answer, instead I kept looking around at the room.

"Yaaah! I asked you something." He raised his voice and made me turn my attention to him.

I just grimaced at him and turned away, earning a giggle from Jun-hae unni(sis).

"I'll be back in few minutes." Jun-hae unni left the room. I stared at her retreating figure. So, now I'm left all alone with this guy.

I got out of the bed slowly and walked to the window nearby, ignoring Jun-pyo's puzzled expression. And he followed me there too.

"Look, I'm sorry, okay." Jun-pyo said, finally, turning me around to face him, with his hands on my shoulder.

"Sorry for?" I asked with my eyes narrowed. He looked really sincere and hurt but what he did was wrong, right? Giving away red cards to people! But what Jun-hae unni had just said about him also made me wanna hug him and say that I would never leave him alone like how his parents did.

"You know, for lying to you on my birthday. I shouldn't have lied to you but the thought of losing you because of truth made me say otherwise. I almost lost you after that red card thing and now I completely lost you after that kiss and all." He said looking down at the floor. About that kiss, I don't even know how and why it happened.

"How did you lose me because of that kiss?" I asked like a stupid.

"I thought you liked me but it was proved wrong last night." He looked at me in the eyes and answered. What? He knew that I liked him!

"First of all, I don't have anything to do with that kiss. Second of all, I was pretty mad at you for that lying and red card shit. I think now I'm not-" Before I could complete the sentence he cut me off by hugging me. A bone crushing one.

It felt really good. So, I hugged him back too. My head reaches his chin. Yeah, I'm kinda short when compared to Jun-pyo. He's the tallest among the F4.

"So you aren't mad at me, right?" He asked after pulling back with wide grin on his face and his dimples tempting me so much to poke it.

I nodded with a smile.

"Okay! I've something to ask you." He said after I stopped bobbing my head.

"Huh?" I asked, obviously curious.

"Um- I uh- Will you go on a date with me?" He asked with puppy dog eyes. Awe, how can I say no to it. Not that I would go on a date with anybody who shows me their puppy dog eyes expression. It's just that I already like this guy and he had asked me out.

"Okay." I said after a chuckle.

"Thanks, Love. I'm happy that I got you back." He grinned widely and pulled me in his embrace again. I leaned against his chest and grinned.
