TAEYEON'S POV
"Our dear leader who supported us ever since debut, the one who is appreciated the most for leading 8 idiots has lost her tongue! Help our leader, please. She needs it the most, we need her" Sooyoung shouted, her voice resonating throughout the whole plane. Not to mention she is waving a medium sized rectangular flag which had my face and Baekhyun printed on it. She looks like a Korean rebel who is ready to attack. Her image is not in danger because all of us know that this is her normal self and we are alone here in the plane coz it is a private one. Yoona and Hyoyeon are dying of laughter and holding their stomachs at the sight of Sooyoung who is acting like an abnormal person. For a minute or 2 I just gawk at Baekhyun, speechless. I don't know what to feel right now, if I'm going to be angry at him for not showing his face for days or I'm going to be that appreciative girlfriend I always act. "A 'I miss you' will suffice. Hey! Say something." He said while looking at me intently in the eyes. "How?" those words are the only words that came out of my mouth. "I got comrades and connections, you know." He said as he pointed my 8 members who are giggling in their seats, also our managers. That is really nice of him, his effort is jjang. "Before you get angry at me, and please don't break up with me. I'm going to say this.." he kneeled in front of me and took out a pair of yellow eye glasses from his jacket and he wore it. The lenses of the glasses have an 'IM SORRY' written on it, he then flashes his smile. "Im Sorry." I guess I pick the option of being an appreciative girlfriend for now. I can't bare to be angry at this person in front of me. Besides I shouldn't doubt him. He loves me, and he shows it often. I hugged him and he hugged me back, I miss his tender embrace and his warm arms surrounding around me. For the first time ever since that day, My mind is at peace, knowing that he is here. "MISSION FAILED!" Yoona exclaimed. "What mission?" I asked confused. "They said that if you cry out of happiness they will give me a reward, but seeing you forgiving me is the best reward I can get." Baekhyun said to me with sincerity in his eyes. "Enough with the drama. At least we saved hundreds of won. That reward is expensive Baekhyunh~ah, thank you for saving us from the sight of women with a hole in their pockets."Hyoyeon said to the both of us. He is seated beside me now and he has his arms around me while I rested my head on his shoulders. "What is the reward?" "A dog." He laughed at his own answer. "Sorry for not crying. Im so happy my tears froze." I apologized to him. "It's ok. Sorry for that action of mine lately. I've been pre occupied with things and I forgot to contact you. I promise to manage my time from now on." He said. I can't blame him. They are down to 11 members now and they have to face every criticism coming from the mouth of the public. "As long as you are faithful to me there's no problem. I understand you Baekhun~ah." "Speaking of being faithful, I have met a new friend. Naeun of APink. You know her right? I got her number from Dream Team and please don't misunderstand if we are exchanging messages to each other. It is me being sociable and a helping hand. Also a friend." So they are texting each other right now, at least he is not keeping this fact as a secret and I admire his honesty to me. I gave him my best assuring smile and said, "Like I said, as long as you keep being a Faithful boyfriend to me. I have no problems." He kissed my forehead and he mouthed the word 'thanks' and he fell asleep. This day is perfect and I'm not going to spoil it. Thanks to him, I got my energy back and I'm super ready for our concert later, the fact that he is watching our first ever concert on the 3rd Japan Tour is a bonus and I must do my best.
KEY'S POV
So basically, our world tour is coming up fast and we need extra time of practicing that I can't feel my feet anymore. Earlier this day we just got back from Japan and We are in the practice room at the moment; this luxury of having a rest even just for 5 minutes is heaven. My eyelids are getting heavier and heavier when I suddenly remembered SNSD's Japan Tour is starting now. "Taemin~ah, can I borrow your phone? My phone's battery is dead and I need to stream Sica's concert." I asked Taemin in a polite manner. His face before I asked was purely white and obviously sweaty because of the practicing earlier but it turned into a mysterious angel who is smiling like a demon. Cute to be honest. HAHA. "Hurry! We will watch too." Jonghyun hyung grabbed the phone and starts the app for the streaming. My girlfriend looks hot on those outfits, I am so lucky. "Drool.Drool everywhere. Wipe it please." Onew hyung said to me while handling me a box of tissue. I am not drooling. "Hyung, don't you think my Yuri gained a little bit of weight? She looks fat." Minho said bluntly. "How dare you say that to your girlfriend. If you love her even she bloats like a pig, you'll still accept her." I said to him. Im gonna tell those remarks to Yuri noona when she arrives from Japan. "Im just saying. She is the girl that I will marry Kibum, Mark my words." Minho pointed at me. He has to relax himself. Im just joking, I know that he loves Yuri noona above anyone else. For about 30 minutes of streaming the concert our choreographer entered the room and we practiced again, by the time our practice has come to an end it was already 3:00 am. Daebak. "You will be leaving Korea in 2 days time boys, its a bit early, but you need to familiarize the foreign staffs that will accompany us in the whole 3 months of touring. Also this is not the same as Korea who already knows your capability as a group. We are dealing with foreign market, and you have to give your best in every concert so that they will think that you are worthy to perform outside your domain. Understand? Be sure to give youre farewells to your loved ones. You will not be seeing them in a few months." Our manager hyung said while giving us a rush meeting before heading home. "This is it. A big leap to a bigger path!" Onew hyung encouraged us.
So I managed to call mom yesterday and my grandmother. I can't go to daegu right now because of schedules and I am already used on being away to my family. I am sure I'll be spending more time with them when I get back. The only thing left is Sica. I can't call her because her phone is locked away somewhere in her Manager oppa's bag because she is performing right now. If you are asking for tomorrow, I can't. Tomorrow is the day where we will have our general rehearsals and packing luggage for a 3 month tour is not a joke. If I have time I will fly to Japan immediately. I don't care if we will get caught by dispatch, besides they've been following me for a year now, but luck is not with them for both of us are born ninjas and we dodged them easily. "2PM is launching their Japan Tour? Amazing how they scheduled their dates almost at the same time as SNSD's" I heard Onew hyung's voice in the living room. They were watching the news while drinking soju and a bunch of crackers given to us by a Thai fan last fanmeeting. "I guess you have to tie Sica in a tree Kibum. Taecyeon is going to Japan." Jonghyun hyung said, his eyes still fixed on the television. "Why on earth would I tie my girlfriend huh?" he jus smirked at my words. "Are you really that blind? Or you are just acting like one? Sica might think that he is just caring oppa and friend that is always by her side and nothing else? But to Taecyeon, she is a meal that a beast must devour." Jonghyun hyung with his deep phrases and sentences that is a real cause of headache. "What exactly do you mean? State it in a more simplier way can you? We are not poets." I blurt out. "Taecyeon hyung is madly in love with Sica noona ever since trainee days, but you got her first. " Taemin added. But im still not into this, I can;t understand. "And, he knows that we are going away for a long time. Come to think of it, 2PM and SNSD touring in Japan in the same dates? That is not a good timing considering those 2 groups are big in Japan." Onew hyung continued, Im slowly seeing the light in this. "This is his chance on getting close to Sica in any way he can. He will do everything to get her. He is delusional right now." Minho said, his frog eyes staring at me, like giving me a warning. "How do you know Taecyeon is this kind of person?I know that he is close with Sica but maybe he is just acting as a friend?" i asked them. Yes, Sica and Taec is really close and I can't blame some fans of shipping both of them because they are so close they even go on cafes together and that time Dispatch catches them, but she denied it of course. I don't know which fortune teller my members hired for this kind of assumptions on an innocent person. "His actions are different everytime I watch him look at your girl. Just a warning." Jonghyun hyung said to me while gulping his beer at the table. "I trust her. That's all that matters."
"You know girls are often amazed and touched by flowery words that come out of a charismatic person, especially when she is lonely. You being away obviously mean Sica will miss you badly. He is a man with a handful of charms and he can sway a girl's attention to him. Be sure your presence is felt Kibum~ah." Onew hyung said, he is a little bit tipsy but his words are right. "Dispatch catching you is the best option." A sleepy Taemin suggested. We all look at him with a what-are-you-talking-about-look and he held his hands up and said, "If Dispatch will catch you, the public will know that you 2 are dating right? Their eyes will be fixed on you. It is not good for an image of a popular singer if he is going for a girl who has a boyfriend right? That'll stop him for sure. Their group has a stain on its image already because of Khun Hyung's drunk driving scandal." Sometimes Taemin can be hella smart. If Taecyeon is really that kind of person, its all up to Jessica if she will be hooked in his charms if ever he will pursue her. I guess I have to be ready for any possible outcome. If she's happy, I'm happy even to the point that I will give her up just to put a smile on her face, I will do it.
"How's the concert baby?"I greeted my girl on the other line and I heard her sweet voice once again. "You're still awake? It ended greatly bum~ah. So happy that you called. I think I'm going to die of jealousy earlier this morning." Jessica whined. "Why?" i asked. "Byun Baekhyun's efforts on gaining a single sorry from Kim Taeyeon is simply remarkable, Kibum." She said in an obvious jealous-filled voice. "Is my love not an effort for you?" "It is more than enough. Don't you ever think that you are not enough for me." She said. A smile formed on my lips after hearing her say that. "We are living for the concert tomorrow Sica. It's been moved earlier. I guess I can't say Goodbye in person to you. That's why I'm calling. Hehe" okay, I lied. I am planning to surprise her in the airport, hopefully, this act will be acceptable. I want to date her openly, before it's to late. "What?!!" she literally screamed, I put my cellphone inches away from my ears, her dolphin scream is a No,No,No. "How can you leave me for 3 months without saying Goodbye in person? I will ask my manager to ask your manager to extend your leave just in time for us to go back home. FYI we will be returning the day after your supposed leave!" she is like a child who is having tantrums. I just laughed at her childish acts and stayed still for a minute. "Kibum? Hello? Still there?yah!"
"Manager Hyung lost her phone. Don't contact him. Hehe. It is compulsory for us to leave early baby. Hope youunderstand." I explained and lied again. Telling every staff in the company to tell every Soshi member, if they ask that we will be leaving tomorrow is tiring without the help of my ever supporting members. Sica~ya this is my grand gesture for you. HAHA. "Don't you ever set your eyes on any girl you meet there, or else I will take you back home. Understand?" "You should too, Don't glance at any man, when Im away ok?" I said to her. "Never in a million Years. Do well on your tour okay? Be safe. I Love You So much." I can hear that she is crying, I want to hug her right now, but I can't. "Don't cry, please. I promise to do it well for you. I Love You So Much. "Without knowing I'm crying also. Damn. Im a man. She ended the call and I guess I have to be ready for a tiring day tomorrow.
