Hidden: Strings of Fate

CHAPTER 55

3 HOURS LATER

As soon as we entered guess what we saw?! Nothing! The lights were out. It was a black out. Of all the times, for a black out... I swear, heaven must be desperate to make my life a misery.

It was late evening by the time so that didn't help. Plus to make it worse, we had arrived back with multiple bags of food. We brought eomuk, tteokbokki, kanpunggi, hae mul pa chun, sae woo tui gim, jajangmyeon, tangsuyuk, jjamppong, gimbap, japchae and kimchi mandu. Basically, we got a lot of food. We had to! Considering the fact that there was 7 ginormous growing males at our apartment.

"Min, are there any candles?" I asked.

"Yeah. I'll go to get them." From the faint light of her phone, she found her way to the kitchen. I used my own phone light to find my way to the dining table. Finding it relatively easily, I placed the heavy bags of food on the table.

"Where did you go?!" I heard someone suddenly shout. My heart started beating fast and in the rush of an adrenaline kick, I ended up kicking someone's leg. I heard a groan. Min came back with the newly lit candles. She placed most of them on the table. From the faint glow of the light I could see that it was Jun Gi. Hmm. Serves him right for scaring me half way to death.

"Oh, it was you." I said, acting as though I was concerned for him. "Are you alright?"

He got up, grumbled and then marched off somewhere.

"You said you were only going to be gone 30 minutes!" Hyuk yelled. From what I could see, he was coming from the bathroom.

"Well, excuse us for being so late with the food! Do you know how many people went out to eat today? Do you know how busy the restaurants were? We had to travel all the way to Songpa to get this food! And then when we got there we had to wait in a queue just to take out!" Min snapped.

I wouldn't blame her. After the trouble she had to go through just to get the food.

"Where are the rest of the members?" I asked him.

"Upstairs. In our apartment."

"Go and call them down please. Tell them there's food here. That'll get them to come down quickly."

"Arasso." Hyuk said as he headed out to go get rest of his members.

"Now that's sorted, I guess I'd better go check on Jun Gi... hmm." Min looked at me confused. "I kicked him. He came up behind me." I explained.

"Arasso. I'll set up the table."

"Jun Gi? Where are you?"

"In here," he called out from my room. I headed there and found him, half dressed. "Honey, have you ever wanted to go back in time? And if you did... would you go back to the day? That day when everything went wrong for us? Would you have done things differently?" He asked solemly.

"What is it, Jun Gi? What's wrong? Why are you asking questions like that?" I looked at him, puzzled. Its times like that this that I wish... everything would just go back to the way it was. Before when we were happy... I glanced at his hands. Why did he have that picture? It was from so long ago. It was from a time when all four of us, Jun Gi, me, Min and... Jun Seo went travelling to Italy with out families. We were all smiling in that picture. We were all happy.

"I..I..I..I.." he stuttered.

"Honey-ah where are you? Open the door for us!" I heard someone call out. They started to repeatedly knock on the door.
