A car stopped in front of a big house.



"We're here!" Miya exclaimed as she turned the engine off but he didn't even bother to look around and continued playing with his phone, his earphones plugged in his ears.


"OMG, I missed this place so much!" Sarah excitedly unbuckled her seatbelt.


"This house tho! It's so nostalgic!" Serris exclaimed.


The two girls went off the car except for Sean, who's still busy.


"Son, we're here." This time, Miya, his mom turned to him. He just turned his phone down and removed his earphones. "I see." Is all that he could answer before opening the door of the car. After getting out, he went inside the house immediately.


"Where's my room?" He asked.


"Hey, Sean. Don't you remember this?" Sarah, his sister asked while attempting to ride the little car that Sean used to ride on when he was little. But he just rolled his eyes and turned to his mom instead.


"My room?" He asked again. Her mom gave him a concerned look.


"Sean, I understand that it's hard to just move to another place and leave your friends and adjust to new environment but you have to understand that we have to go back here, since it's all that is left to us. This house. After your Dad passed away, we lost everything."


"I understand mom. I just want my room."


He lied. He didn't understand. His life was in Taiwan. They originally live here in L.A but when he turned 9, they had to move to Taiwan for his parents' business. There, he built a lot of friendships and pursued his dancing career. But when his Dad died of his illness, they also lost everything in the business and even their own properties. So they had to move back in California to start a new life. But he couldn't get over with the fact that he just had to leave everything in Taiwan.


"The old one still. The third one upstairs." Her mom said then he plugged his earphones back in and climbed upstairs.


The place hasn't changed. He could still remember everything from this town even if he hasn't seen it for almost 9 years.


He opened the door of his old room. It's really dusty but he saw some few things that he knew was his, back when they lived here. A small pair of old shoes and the mattress. He put his things down and lifted the old blinds. He was about to jump into his bed to take some rest when he saw someone outside.


A girl with brown, curly hair, rosy cheeks, bright eyes that looks green as the sunlight hits them and a very precious smile. He suddenly heard the change of the loud beating of his heart.


She got off from her mountain bike and a dog from her house came and greeted her with hugs and face licks. The girl giggled and the precious smile on her face made her more beautiful.


His moment of watching the nice view disrupted when he heard some knocks from his door. He swung it openand saw Serris who's holding a box with his name, printed on it. "You forgot." She said.

"Yeah, thanks." She handed him the box. Sean placed it inside his room and Serris went inside too and looked around.


"I swear, I missed and remember this place so much. Remember we used to fight often because you wouldn't let me borrow your nintendo?" They both chuckled, remembering that moment.


"Yeah, because once it's in your hands, you'd never give it back again." Sean said then they laughed.


"But you used to have a playmate. I really got angry because I'm your sister but you won't let me borrow it but when that playmate asks you to borrow it, you wouldn't even hesitate! Wait, what was her name again?"
