Sister's Bestfriend

Chapter 24

SANA'S POV

We finally got back in our hotel room and Mina and Momo immediately went to bed after having a quick call with their boyfriend.

I was trying to call Tzuyu, but he's not answering anymore and I know he's already asleep because it's already midnight in Korea already.

"Aren't you going to sleep yet?" Mina asked when she lay down next to me.

"In a minute... I'll just finish this..." I said.

"That's for Tzuyu?" She asked and I nodded.

"He was very sweet earlier... I think the drinks made him like that..." She said.

"Maybe... He's just that talkative when it's just the two of us, but now... He doesn't care even if it's being broadcast." I said.

"I have a feeling that he'll come here..." She said.

"I doubt it... He's busy these days..." I said.

"Let's just see... And sleep... We're early tomorrow..." She said.

I also nodded and went in the blankets while I continued the message I'm going to send Tzuyu.

The next few days passed by slowly because of the work we are doing. I'm enjoying the work because we're out of the country, but I still don't feel safe without Tzuyu. 

"Only a week left..." Momo said. 

"Yeah... oh, I miss Korea..." Mina said. 

"It's Chaeyoung who you miss." I teased her. 

"And you also miss Tzuyu." Momo said.

"Yes... I won't deny that..." I said. 

"Are you going to Japan after this schedule?" Mina asked. 

"I'll go back to Korea for a week before going to Japan... Tzuyu and I will go to Japan at the same time." I said. 

"Business trip?" Momo asked. 

"No... he's going to meet my parents." I said. 

"Seriously?!" Mina asked. 

I nodded and Momo then received a message which she immediately replied to. 

Mina also got a message, and I think it's Chaeyoung and Dahyun, so I didn't ask anymore. 

While we were shooting the closing of another episode, I suddenly felt something going on with the way the staff were whispering to each other. 

When the other artists also noticed this, we asked them what was happening, then I felt a tap on my shoulder, and when I turned around, I saw Tzuyu standing behind me with a bouquet of flowers and a wide smile on his face. 

"Love!" I said and immediately hugged him tight. 

I heard him giggle, and I would be lying if I said it's not the cutest thing I've ever heard. 

I saw in my peripheral vision that Dahyun is with Momo and Chaeyoung is with Mina already. 

The other artists also have their partners with them, and most of us became emotional because even if we're having fun working, we are still struggling to be in touch with our loved ones. 

"I missed you..." I said while he's wiping my tears. 

"I missed you too... don't cry..." He said and pulled me in a hug again. 

"I thought you were busy..." I said. 

"I can make time for you..." He said. 

"Did the staff contact you?" I asked and he nodded. 

"That's why I finished all the work for the next month..." He said. 

"For the next month?" I asked. 

"We're going to your parents... did you forget about that?" He asked. 

"I know... but you can go back to Korea next week..." I said.

"I'll stay with you here until you go back to Korea... and I want to spend more time with you while you're preparing to go to Japan..." He said. 

I then smiled on how he is making so much effort to spend time with me after being away for weeks.

This isn't the Tzuyu I've known before. He's more mature and sweet. And I love this version of his. 

When we got back in the hotel, Tzuyu have his own room, so I went with him in his room and slept with him for the rest of our stay. 

When we got back in Korea, I stayed in their house for the rest of the week before we went to Japan and meet my parents. 

Since he's a multilingual person, he can communicate with my parents in Japanese without any struggles, and I feel at ease that they are not against our relationship. 

We've been in touch with them even before we started dating, and when they knew we started dating, my parents were concerned about the age difference and that I might struggle with Tzuyu's immaturity, but when they knew he is mature enough, they didn't argue anymore and accepted our relationship. 

"Have you ever tried matcha ice cream?" I asked Tzuyu. 

"No... have you?" He asked. 

"Of course... Japan has the best matcha in the world." I said. 

"Where do you buy the best matcha ice cream then?" He asked. 

"Just around here... let's go... I'm craving for one..." I said and pulled him out of the bed to buy ice cream. 

I just put on a jacket while he just grabbed his wallet before going downstairs. 

"Mom! We're going to buy ice cream! Do you want some?!" I asked. 

"Yes! Buy us one each!" Dad answered.

"Okay!" I said and pulled Tzuyu out of the house. 

It's a cold sunny day, but it's not cold enough for us to shiver in cold. I led us to the store where I usually buy my matcha ice cream and bought 4 take-outs. 

While we're walking back home, someone was calling my name. Tzuyu was about to cover me from the guy, but I recognized his voice. 

It's my childhood friend. We talked for a while and I introduced Tzuyu to him. 

I could see the tension between them, but I ignored it because I know Tzuyu knows I'll always pick him. 

My childhood friend confessed his feelings for me a few years ago when I went back here for a vacation, but I rejected him because I was seeing V that time, and now, Tzuyu and I are so in love with each other. 

"Love, let's go..." I said while he's having a staring contest with my childhood friend. 

He nodded and still didn't move from his spot.

I then pulled him with me so he would stop and a smile showed on his face again when he's out of his sight. 

"I'm sure this ice cream will bring your mood back." I said. 

He just hummed and kissed my temple as I wrap my arms around his waist.

Once we got home, we ate the ice cream and he was so stunned by how great the matcha ice cream was. He said he'd fly here every week just to eat ice cream, but I know it's impossible because of his busy schedules. 

But what I am happiest about right now is my parents loves Tzuyu for me, and he didn't take advantage of this. He was even more gentle and loving, and I am so happy that I'm with a real man.
