I ran to hug my older sister that has just come back from work. "Unnie, I missed you so much!!!!"

"DaYeong, go easy on the hugging. You are suffocating me!!"

"Oops..." I said and loosened the grip on her waist. "But I missed you so much."

"I know but can you let me go take a shower first and foremost?? I bet that I stink like fish."

I pouted like a little girl that didn't get her daily dose of sweets except it is hugs for me. "But unnie..."

"I swear that I will be back in 10 minutes." She struggled to get out of my embrace and made the run to the toilet but stopped abruptly when she spotted him getting out of the bathroom a second ago. "What is this handsome guy doing in our house??"

My mother chimed in. "That's MinGyu ssi, DaYeong's boyfriend."

"Omma, he is just my classmate and he is staying here for a week as the both of us got kicked out of our courses," I explained once again thanks to him messing up with my mother's poor brain.

"Your classmate?? Still, he is handsome." My sister looked closely at the guy who seemed very nervous. Maybe my sister is just too pretty to him that he is feeling a bit nervous. "He looks like those players that play with one girl after another. Are you playing with my sister??"

That's so spot on, my sister described him in just one sentence.

But it seemed that she wanted to lecture him right here and right now. I have to stop her or it will continue until tomorrow morning.

"Unnie, I thought that you were going to take a shower??"

"I was going to but having this guy around makes me not want to. How many girls have you played with??"

"Even your type. I dated 5 of them." He answered. "What are you going to do with it?? Noona??"

Oh no... They are going to fight...

"Unnie, I have something to say to you." I dragged my sister all the way to my room and closed the door.

"Why are you dragging me away from him?? I haven't warned him enough."

"It's okay, it is not like we will be staying together in one room."

"Remember, during this one week, don't ever enter his room without anyone around and if you do, make sure that the door is open."

"He won't do anything to me," I reassured me. "We don't have this kind of a relationship. I hated him a lot and I'm sure that he feels the same."

"Still, be on high alert this week. You have not dated anyone before and I have to protect you from that guy. He clearly has gone to bed with so many people and I don't want you to be one of them."

"Rest assured, I won't be one of them. Oppa will be home as well, right??"

I have one older brother who is a nurse working in one of Ilsan's biggest hospitals.

"Nope, he won't. He told me that he wouldn't be home for one whole week as he needed to cover someone's shift for the 3rd time again."

I heaved a sigh of relief as he won't be home while I am here and I wouldn't have to deal with another protective older sibling that try to keep me away from Kim MinGyu, just like what my sister is doing right now. I am the youngest in the family and they have always been that protective, I was even convinced to attend an all-girls middle school and high school thanks to them. They swore that they will never allow me to get close to a guy until I have turned of age which I had, that's why I'm in a co-ed university.

"Without him around, I will still be on high alert for your safety. Got it??" She said feeling quite satisfied and took a sniff in her right armpit. "It sure does smell like fish."

I chuckled and pinched my nose with one hand. "Go and shower."

"Fine. Go to bed now and lock your room after I go out of here."

It is still a little after 7, way too early to go to bed.

"What about dinner??"

"Right." She was dumbfounded and I almost laughed in front of her but I didn't.

She would strangle me if I did.

"Then sit far far away from him." She concluded before getting out of my room.

Finally, she is gone. One protective older sibling down.

Having siblings can be hard especially you are a girl and is the youngest.

"Eat this, my darling..." I gulped down my saliva as DaYeong's sister handed me a piece of meat which is stabbed in the middle by a chopstick. "I picked the best just for you."

"Take it... It is for you anyways." I reluctantly took it and put it in my mouth. It is horrible, she dipped it whole in gochujang sauce before giving it to me. A kick of spiciness sent me all the way to hell and I swear that I just saw Satan himself just earlier.

"Is it delicious, my MinGyu??" She said as she cupped her own cheeks as she looked at me. It seems like she is smiling but she isn't. That was a devilish grin.

Oh, my... The Jin family is indeed scary. I thought that Jin DaYeong was weird enough herself.

I have to show her that I wouldn't die so easily. "Of course, noona... This is just the right amount of spice for me." I wiped away the sweat that were forming on my forehead.

"Oh really?? I'm happy that you liked it so much." She said putting in another in the same sauce. "Then, have more."

Jin DaYeong who was watching the whole time was rolling her eyes. "Unnie, stop it!! The spiciness is no joke and you are feeding him two of it. This is getting a little too far."

For the first time ever, I have to agree with you. This is too much...

"What?? I didn't force him to eat it. He liked it so I decided to give it to him."

She sounded so much like an angel but it turned out to be the devil instead. I shouldn't have argued with her earlier.

"Oh, I can't believe this..." Jin DaYeong sighed and poured me a glass of water. "Drink this."

I thanked her for taking it and drank it all, asking for another immediately.

"I know right. Dahye, there are another pranks that you can do to MinGyu ssi but do you have to do that??"

"Of course!! I have to make sure that my little sister never gets harmed by this monster."

I looked at Mr. Jin and he just sighed, telling me that there is no point to even argue about it.

What is wrong with this family?? I feel that I'm going to die even before the end of the week and I will never get to go home.

What trouble have I gotten myself into??
