"Jagiya?" Kyungsoo called out from the kitchen. For sure, he was tired of doing all the house chores. Washing the dishes, doing the laundry, cleaning the counters-you name it. And he always refused when I wanted to do the work. "Yes, Kyungie?" I said, standing up and entering the kitchen.

"I love it when you call me that." He said to me. I giggled and back-hugged him tightly. He was the best thing I could ever ask for, no kidding. He made me feel like it's heaven on earth every single time I was with him.

"You know, you aren't really just my sweet and precious boyfriend aren't you, now?" I asked while looking at his sparkling eyes. It was captivating. He always made me feel this way-butterflies in my stomach, tension in my veins, and fast heartbeats.

"Correction, it's everything." He corrected as held a finger up. "You're too cute to handle." I said while pinching his soft and cute cheeks. There he goes again, his cute little tactics made me fall in love with him even more each day.

"I love you, forever." He said to me while looking into my eyes. I blushed madly into a shade of crimson red, like they were already an insult to red tomatoes. "I love you too, forever." I managed to answer. He kissed my forehead and I hugged him again. I smiled at the thought that I had reached the dream I was longing for-him. And I always thought he was just a dream for me-a dream I could never catch.

I always feel the true meaning of love whenever I'm around with Kyungsoo. He means everything to me. Never in my life would I let him go. He's too precious, and I couldn't bare it to see him with anyone else. That's how special he is to me, and I know-so am I to him.

Just then, I heard a knock at the door. As I opened it, a familiar looking guy stood right in front of me. "Did I disturb your lovey-dovey time or what?" Huh? Who is-then it hit me.

That familiar voice.

Could it be?

"Sehun!" I welcomed him for a long hug. I missed him so damn much. He was the youngest in our group: me, Kyungsoo, Sehun and Luhan. We used to play all these silly games and have sleepovers-and no, I wasn't out of place. I was actually the leader of our team.

"You missed this maknae didn't you?" He asked while pulling away from the hug, and I instantly nodded. "Of course I did! Who wouldn't miss the optimistic and joyful kid in our team, right? Look at how fast you grew!" I said while looking at him from head to toe.

"The neighborhood's been kind of quiet since the day you left for your studies, Sehun." I teased while giving out a little laughter. I remember my childhood being filled with corny jokes and big smiles from him. "Yehet" was the word he made famous in the small town he lived in during his childhood.

"Ah, noona, don't tease me." He pouted and I pinched his cheeks. "We missed you so much! Especially that cute aegyo of yours that's just impossible to resist. It brought a lot of joy to us, you know?" I chuckled.
