The days went on as usual. Same routine, without much change. There was a competition coming up where we were going to compete against bands and groups like us. We were practicing hard for that along with our daily routine. We had participated in competitions before and won a few times. But this was bigger than the other competitions. We were nervous, but we always put in our best effort. We finished our practice for that day and went home. As soon as we reached, I went into my room and just jumped onto my bed and fell asleep. Just a short nap, though. When I woke up, I heard voices in the living room. I opened the door, and just peeped to see who it was. I could only see Hyung and JungShin. MinHyuk was probably sitting on the other chair. The guests' backs were facing me. So I peeped more in an attempt to see who they were. JungShin caught me trying to see who the guests were. "Ahh! Hyung! You're up!" He said, in a tone higher than normal. I facepalmed. "Nugu?'" I asked Jungshin, crinkling my nose. "Uri Ji-Hyuni!" JungShin said. Oh..Kang Ji Hyun. She was a close friend of Jung Shin's. I had met her a few times. She was a nice girl. "Ji-Hyuni?!" I said, walking towards them with my bed hair and sleepy eyes. I didn't care to even adjust my hair because she was a good friend anyway. "Anneyong! Orenmanida!" Ji-Hyun said. "Au. Jal Jinasseo?" I asked, rubbing my sleepy eyes. When I finally stood in front of her, I realized that there was another person near Ji-Hyun. I turned to look at her.And froze. I could not believe my eyes. It was HER. The person I thought I'd never see again. Wow, is it some kind of fate? Ever since I saw her in the café, all I could think about was how I was going to look for her. And here she was, at my house. "Waahh! Daebakida!" I told myself. Our eyes met, and she smiled at me. "AnneyongHaseyo!" she said. "Ne.Anneyonghaseyo!" I greeted back. I started combing my hair with my fingers, suddenly becoming aware of my messy bed hair. I could feel her looking at me, and I caught her smiling to herself when she saw me trying to set my hair. Ji-Hyun-ie introduced us. "This is my best friend, Seung Yeon." She said. "Ne. Gong Seung Yeon ibnida!" Seung Yeon said to me. Well, now the initials G.S.Y made sense. It was her bag. "Seung Yeon-ie. This is Jong Hyun Sunbae!" Ji Hyun continued the introduction. "Lee Jong Hyun ibnida! Nice to meet you" I said, smiling at Seung Yeon. She looked very pretty in her patterned skirt and a pink top. "Nice to meet you too!" she said. I wondered if she remembered me. No, she wouldn't. Why would she? "Keunde! Why did you call him Sunbae? We're in different colleges !" Seung Yeon asked Ji Hyun. "Yea...But it's become a habit. Jung Shin used to call him Sunbae a long time back, so when I first met JongHyun sunbae, I too had to call him that. Now it's weird to call him something other than Sunbae." Ji Hyun answered. "Ahh...keurae!" Seung Yeon-ie said, shaking her head. "Hyung! Please go set the table for dinner!" Min Hyuk said. "Wae??" I asked. I didn't mind setting the table, but I wanted to talk to Seung Yeon and get to know her. "Because we cooked." My three brothers said in unison. "Ahhh! Jeongmal!" I said. "Fine. I'll set the table." I proceeded towards the dining table. "Jong Hyun-ssi. I'll help you out!" I heard her say. Wait...what? Did I hear right? I turned to see her walking towards me. "Ne?" I asked. "I'll help you in setting the table. Let Ji-Hyun-ie talk to them. She said she has lots to tell Jung Shin-ssi and MinHyuk-ssi." Seung Yeon said. "But you really don't have to! You're our guest." I said, showing no expressions on my face but inside, I was bursting with joy. I had wanted to talk to her instead of doing other things, and my wish had come true. I had the chance to talk to her. I gave her the plates from the shelf while I carried the cutlery. "JongHyun-ssi. Do you, by chance, remember that we met sometime back? In the café?" she asked me. I couldn't believe my ears. Was she really asking me that? That means, she remembers me. Yassssssss!!!!! I pretended to think for a while. "Ahhhh...yes! I do! The yellow bag!" I said, as if I remembered it only when she asked me. If she only knew! "Ne. Majayo!" she said. " I remember. You said it was important to you." I said. "It is. It's a polaroid camera. It was a present." She said. Present? From who? Did she have a boyfriend? "From my sisters! For my eighteenth birthday!" she said, like she had read my mind. "Ohh..Thank God you didn't lose it." I said. I asked her what she was majoring in. "I'm studying Computer Science Engineering. 2nd Year." She said. "Oh, that's great. So you are in Seoul Women's University too? With Ji-Hyun?" I asked. "Yes! I am.But she's in a different department. As you know." She said. I smiled.
