Burn (Part 2 Of Caffeine)

Chapter 10

"Chenchen!" I said into the phone.

{Please don't call me that, you're only my boss. I don't want to be rude but I don't wanna be your friend}

"Ah, okay I see what you mean. How's the store going?"

{It's going great actually, Suho is doing a pretty good job keeping this place in order. Of course he'll never be as good as you but whatever...}

"You want a raise don't you?"

{No...}

"I'll add ten thousand wons to you paycheck."

{Thank you hyung! When will you come back to Korea?}

"I don't know, I'll hang up first. Goodbye!"

I ended the phone call with Chen. I missed being back in Korea. I had friends there.

I was sitting in the car, waiting for Juliana to be done with her class. She didn't have an ID or license in China so I had to take her everywhere. She was quite something. One minute she could be the darkest and most depressing person you've met, then the next she could be so adorable and friendly. It was weird. Maybe she was on her period or something.

"Hyung!" I female voice yelled. I turned my head and saw Juliana running towards the car. She opened the door and sat down, she was very excited for some reason.

"Did you call me hyung?" I asked slowly. She nodded happily and gripped my arm tightly.

"Hyung...Can you take me somewhere?" she asked while gripping my arm tighter and tighter every second. I nodded to her response and she started screaming and bouncing in the car.

"Aish child! Stop! What is it? Are all teenaged girls like this?" I muttered to myself. She nodded and clapped.

"Put your belt on and tell me where to go..." She did as I told. She started squealing again, I believe I told her to shut up about twenty times before she actually became silent. I continued driving where she told me to go. After about ten minutes of driving, she told me to stop in front of a mall.

"Is this really why you were squealing? For a mall?" I yelled. I felt sort of frustrated but I don't know why. I looked at her and she nodded happily. She then ran out of the car. I had to chase her. I wasn't in the mood for running. Being physical was not on my list today. As I walked towards the mall, a man bumped into me, causing me to fall. He looked familiar but I didn't know why. I just brushed the dirt off and ran to find that small red headed foreigner.

It took about twenty minutes but I officially found her.

"Hyung!" she screamed. I looked at her and she motioned me to come over to her.

"Unzip my dress." she said and turned around. I shrugged and unzipped her black, fluffy dress. I noticed that she had a tattoo on her back. It was something in English, I couldn't read it.

"What's that?" I asked.

"It's called a tattoo, Taeyeonnie and I have the same tattoo. Yes, we are that close." she said. I shrugged and continued on with whatever I was doing.

I sat in the hotel room. The three of us, Kyuhyun, Sun Hi, and I had to stay in a hotel for a bit until we could find another house. Juliana was playing with Sun Hi while I sat on the bed. Sun Hi started to think of Juliana as her mother. It made me happy knowing that she finally had a woman in her life. Someone knocked on the door, it was odd since no one really comes over. I stood up and answered it. My jaw nearly dropped as I saw the person staring back at me.
