Chapter one
"Yuri, sleepyhead, wake up. We're here." God, that's the best sleep I had in ages. I actually slept better with all the noise, it blocks out unnecessary memories I'd rather forget than remember. And that is what makes waking up so much harder. The annoyingly bright lights of the plane also don't help.
As I open my eyes I am met with the face of my group's leader, Kang Sang Hee, the oldest, or as we like to call her Sunny. As much as that nickname is on the nose, because of her bright and sunny character, it just fits to well to try and think of another one.
"What time is it?" I ask.
"It's 6 o'clock." She answers.
Our manager interjects "We landed a little late, so we'll leave Incheon International Airport by 7, maybe 7:30. Do you guys' mind if I drive you all home simultaneously or do you want to drive separately? Driving together will only take longer though."
"I don't mind driving together, it's more fun anyway." answers Jia. Kim Jia, one of our vocalists and the fashionista of the group, also known as JJ.
"If we drive with each other, we could also stop along the way and get some dinner. What do you guys think?" suggests Mi Cha. Im Mi Cha, Mimi, our lead rapper, tomboy and my art companion.
"I like the sound of that. I'm so hungry I could eat a whole cow right now." I respond.
"I'm craving something greasy after the tour we just finished." added Aree. Aree Chanthotri, the only Thai member of Nova, our cute nerd and nicknamed Cherry.
"Agreed, finally no more dieting!" says Xin Yi excitedly. Li Xin Yi, Sheeshee, Chinese, main dancer and my gym buddy.
"Okay, sounds like a plan. Let's get going, the other staff members will get your baggage and bring it to your homes." Baba concludes. Baba, our manager for the past ten years, the one who was there for us through the good times and the bad.
"Why did we park so far away again?" I ask.
"Because of cardio." Aree answers.
"Trust me, I don't need any more cardio."
"To be honest I am kind of regretting parking the car so far away" Baba says while chuckling.
"At least this way we can walk of all the calories we just ate." Xin Yi adds.
"Oh, you just want to work out." Mi Cha interjects.
"Maybe." Xin Yi jokingly responds while shrugging.
Who would want to walk outside in this weather. It's way too cold. I can feel the goosebumps spread across my body. It almost feels like it could be winter. I'm starting to regret not bringing a coat with me.
"Here take my jacket Angel. You look like you're freezing."
"Thanks Baba."
He has always known me well. Sometimes too well, it can be quiet annoying at times.
"Let's get you girls home." Baba says.
"Tomorrow, we have to get up bright and early and have a long day ahead so don't stay up to late. Okay?" Sang Hee states.
"Okay!" we all respond.
"Are we all driving together tomorrow or are we driving separately?" Jia asks.
"Since we have to be there by seven it would be easier to drive separately, otherwise some of us would have to get up really early just to make it in time." answers Mi Cha.
"That's true." says Sang hee.
"Okay, so we're all going there individually." I conclude.
"Yea." Xin Yi responds.
"Yuri, can I drive with you? My car is in the garage and won't be ready for a couple days." Aree asks.
"Sure, I'll be by yours at seven."
"Sounds good."
"Bye-bye, see you guys tomorrow."
"Bye Angel" says Baba.
"Sleep well Blue" Jia adds.
"You too"
Fuck I forgot to give back Baba's jacket. Welp it's too late now they're already gone. I guess I'll take it with me tomorrow.
Would he still be up?
Probably not, it's late anyway. God, I'm shivering. I should go inside.
Ahhh, this is so much better. At last home! I missed my house, my kitchen, my bed and most of all... my privacy.
"Hey"
"AHHHH!! WHAT THE FUCK!! Jesus Christ, Yuki what's wrong with you? You scared the shit out of me dude." I say, hyperventilating a little bit.
"Sorry, I'm sorry." Yuki hurriedly says, while genuinely looking sorry.
"It's okay, you're okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I won't do it again. I promise." he says while wrapping his arms around me and holding me tight.
The warmth of his embrace calms me and makes me feel safe. My breathing slows.
What. A. Wuss. Who starts hyperventilating just from somebody saying hey. God-
"Stop it."
"Stop what?"
"Stop getting angry at yourself for reacting the way you do."
"I wasn-"
"I'm your twin Blue. I know you better than anyone else, so don't try to lie to me."
I hate when he looks at me like that, with those big brown knowing eyes. And I hate it even more that he's right. I was getting angry at myself.
"Yeah yeah, whatever. You staying over?"
"Look who's changing the subject." he says while grinning.
"Oh, shut up" I say while chuckling. "But seriously are you staying? The guest bedroom is ready."
"Sure. Oh right, I almost forgot I already unpacked your stuff. I knew you would probably be home late, so I thought I'd help."
"Thanks that saves me a lot of time. Did you eat already?"
"No problem and yes I did."
"Okay, I'm going to bed. Do you need anything for the night or are you good?"
"I'm good. What time do you need to get up tomorrow?"
"Uhm, at about 6 o'clock. Why?"
"Just wanted to know."
"Okeydokey, good night, Z" I reply while walking towards my room.
"Night El"
My whole body is tired. The tour really took a toll on me. I just want to lay in bed and pretend I'm dead. But I can't, I must change into my pyjama's and brush my teeth, maybe even shower.
No, I am definitely not doing that now. Just changing it is.
Ahh, finally my own bed. God, I missed this baby. My eyes feel heavy. I should probably turn off the light.
Well, that too late now.
