Sooyoung meets up with Changsub and Minhyuk a week later to play with the kids at the orphanage. This time, the boys brings another one with them to introduce to the girl.
"Changsub-oppa! Minhyuk-oppa!" Sooyoung waves as she runs towards her new found friends. "Oh, you brought someone with you." She smiles at the stranger. "Hi I'm Park Sooyoung!"
The stranger's eyes widen. "H-hi... I'm Seo Eunkwang."
Sooyoung claps her hand. "Waaa, your voice is so pretty. Are you a singer too?"
"Yeah, how's you guess?" Eunkwang asks, clearly surprised.
Minhyuk answers him. "Changsub told her about your work."
"Really?" The girl nods.
One of the kids approach the girl. "Sooyoung-eonnie, please play with. Let's play on the swings."
"Alright... excuse me." Sooyoung bows at the boys and stands up to play with the kids.
Eunkwang, Minhyuk and Changsub watch Sooyoung who the kids seem to love. They remember the days when Sorim would visit them but only when Sungjae comes too.
"The kids like her." Minhyuk gazes at his kids, having fun with their new big sister.
Changsub nods in agreement. "She's only been here twice and the kids clearly adores her already."
"Kinda reminds you when she first visited this place." Eunkwang takes a gulp of his drink.
It was the beginning of summer, Sungjae and Sorim have been dating for months. The hyungs invited them to the orphanage to play with the kids. Sorim has been sick for a few days and just started feeling better, that's why she was wearing a face mask.
"Are you gonna be okay, Sorim-ah?" Sungjae asks the girl beside him.
Sungjae nods. "I'll be fine, oppa. Don't worry."
"Don't be such a mother hen Sungjae." Hyunsik scolds the maknae. "She's a grown woman. She's not a baby anymore."
"Her fever just went down last night." Sungjae argued. "I'm worried. I am her boyfriend after all."
The boys meet up with Minhyuk and the kids run up to them. Being the shy and timid girl that she was, Sorim hides behind Sungjae so no one would pay attention to her.
"You guys go play with them. I'll just sit here." Sorim encourages the boys and takes a seat.
Peniel pouts. "Oh come on. Don't be like that. Let's all play together.
Sorim giggles. "I don't want to pass my cold to the kids. Go on." She nods at Sungjae.
Changsub, Minhyuk and Eunkwang continues to gaze at the girl with a sad expression on their faces. Sooyoung is carrying one of the girls on her back as she runs back to the boys.
"Mimi-ah, eonnie's tired. Let's rest first, okay?" Sooyoung gasps, catching her breathe.
Mimi cries, not wanting to let go of her beautiful playmate. "Mimi, how about we make a deal. If you get down from Sooyoung-eonnie's back, I'll bring Hyunsik-oppa next week end." Changsub offers.
Mimi slides down Sooyoung's back. "Yay! Hyunsik-oppa!" she giggles.
"Go play with the others Mimi." Minhyuk ruffles the girl's hair as she runs to rejoin her brothers and sisters.
Sooyoung takes a seat, finally taking a rest after having fun with the orphans. The boy sees their difference. Despite having the same face, they don't see the maknae's late girlfriend in the newcomer.
