"There is something different... I just don't know what... Did you buy new shoes?" Chaelin got back home and her mom observed her from head to toe. "Nope. I don't have money for that, neither do you." Chaelin looked at her shoes, the same pair as almost a year ago. "Honey... I'm trying my best to make as much money as possible... School is first priority so we can't buy new shoes every month. No one notices!" Chaelin nodded and then mumbled as she rubbed her neck. "If it wasn't for dad leaving us..." At the mention of the word 'dad', her mother's face became red. "A-about that... I wanted to talk about something with you and Jungwoo..."
"So you're trying to say that you have a boyfriend, which is fourteen years younger than you? He is only 7 years older than Jungwoo?! You're forty-two, and HE IS 28?!!!" Chaelin slammed her hands on the table and Jungwoo lay his face in the palms of his hands. Their mother nodded. "There is no age on love." Chaelin rolled her eyes, tapped on Jungwoo's shoulder and ran to her room. She lay down on her bed and after a couple of seconds, Jungwoo entered her room. He lay next to her and looked in her eyes, then they both started to laugh.
"Chaelin-ah, you never wear that style of make-up. You look... pretty, but... You look like a fluffy princess or something. It's all light pink, and a little bit gold, there on your eyes." Jungwoo noticed and Chaelin hugged him. "You noticed!" He patted her head and kissed her forehead. "Of course, who did that?" The small girl played with her hair, not wanting to look in her brother's eyes. "Jaemin..." Jungwoo started to tease the younger, ending up tickling her.
✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧
"Guys, can you come down please? He's here!" The sibling ran downstairs to be met with a young looking, healthy man. "Hello, I am Yoon Donghan, your mother's boyfriend." Chaelin was shocked, he said it as if it was the most normal thing to say. The siblings bowed respectfully at the male and he and their mother walked to the living room. Chaelin widened her eyes at Jungwoo and started to whisper. "Is that him? He looks almost younger than you!" Jungwoo shook his head and slapped the back of Chaelin's head as he whispered back. "Do I look that old? Let's just go to sleep, it's 9 PM." He walked upstairs and the younger followed. The siblings were gossiping about everyone and everything until it was late and then went to sleep.
As they tried to get some rest, loud laughs of their mother could be heard all the way upstairs. Even music could be heard and it kept on going until 1 AM so Chaelin walked to Jungwoo's room. She knocked on his door and opened it to see if he was awake. He was still sleeping but she walked to his bed and lay down next to him as she covers herself in the blanket. Soon she felt herself being hugged by the older and then she felt safe, she could forget all the problems she got herself into, this is what she wanted, being in her brother's embrace forever.
✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧✧
The next morning, Chaelin woke up by her mother shouting in her face. "Chaelin-ah!!! If you don't wake up now you will never make it to school on time!!!" She rubbed her eyes and groaned as she sat up, still in Jungwoo's bed, but Jungwoo couldn't be find. "Mom" She said in a raspy voice and got up. Her mom turned around and looked at her daughter. "Where is Jungwoo?" A sigh could be heard, she just left the room. Chaelin rolled her eyes and rushed to the bathroom to get ready. She took her backpack and ran to school.
As Chaelin ran to school, she suddenly heard something. A voice. A deep voice, speaking in a mysterious way. "Where are you going little girl?" Chaelin turned her head quickly to the direction where she heard the voice coming from.
No one.
She shrugged and walked further, fear starting to form inside her body. She first thought of everything that could happen with her, she was all alone. But then she tried to shrug it off. 'Maybe I'm just hearing things that aren't there.' But she immediately doubt that, because she heard a voice again, saying something else. "Why are you afraid?" She turned her head another time but this time she was met with a man. A tall man. She looked up and saw he had a handsome face. "Uh... I... No, I'm not afraid. I just have to hurry because I will be late for school." She kept on walking but the man took her wrist. "I said that I had to go to school or else I'll be late!" She tried to loosen his grip but it won't work, he had at least three times her height and he was quite muscular. "Why are you- holding my wrist that hard- urgh" She kept on trying and the tall man chuckled. "I'm Johnny, I got the mission to look after you so you won't be in danger." Chaelin stopped moving and raised an eyebrow. "Do I look like I'm five?" He shook his head with a cute pout. "Then let me go to school!" Johnny pulled her arm and walked to his car. "I can bring you to school, you'll be there in less than five minutes!" Chaelin crossed her arms, eyebrow still raised. "I don't trust you. I will not let you bring me to school."
"So your name is Chaelin huh?" She nodded, an angry face and arms crossed as she looked out the window. Even though she said she wouldn't, she still got in the car and now they were almost at school. "Jungwoo told me to bring you to school since he had to leave for his work early today. I will also pick you up from school so you don't have to be afraid to get caught." Chaelin nodded and soon enough they arrived so she got out and ran to the school. She saw the boys and Mina so greeted them by hugging them one by one.
"Where is Renjun?" Chaelin asked and looked at Jeno and then Jaemin and then around to seek for Renjun. "He's with Chenle and... Chenle's new friend." Chaelin turned around and looked confused at Jaemin, who just spoke. "And who is that new friend?" Mina pointed at three boys, two of them Renjun and Chenle and then a tall boy. "Gosh, he's tall, is he the same age as us?" Jeno shook his head. "Two years younger." Chaelin nodded and let out a small 'ah' and then started moving to the three other boys.
"Hello, I am Kim Chaelin, Renjun and Chenle's friend." She put out her hand and the tall, awkward boy shook it. He rubbed his neck and his low voice send shivers down the short girl's spine. "I am Park Jisung." Chaelin smiled sweetly and put her hands behind her back in a cute manner. "Jisung Pwark, nice name." Jisung's cheeks blushed a light shade of red and he flipped his hair, which was orange. "So are you a noona or..." Chaelin smiled at the word noona, liking being called that. "Yes, I heard you're two years younger. Don't worry, noona will take good care of you~" She gave the taller a hug and then looked at Chenle. "So how did you guys met?" He shrugged, just like the younger. "You don't know how you met?" Chaelin raised a brow and let out a deep sigh. "Y'all are so dumb."
