"Hyung hyung hyung!" Junhyuk ran to Hyunsuk who was sleeping with the girl group's photo book on his face, "Look at this!"

"Baby brother... I love you and all but I'm tired from studying..."

"Studying your future girlfriend? In the Team C dorm? Come on wake up I got something to show you!"

"Only because you called Minyoung my future girlfriend. Now what's up?" Hyunsuk yawned and Junhyuk handed him a package. "For me?" Hyunsuk asked and baby Junhyuk nodded.

Hyunsuk ripped open the package and found a box. He opened the box and his eyes lit up. "WOAAAAAH!"

It was the limited edition Minyoung photocard along with her photo book for the Curve Boutique photo shoot. There were 3 books, 1 book per concept. Along with that were cards and Polaroids from her interview and red carpet shots. To top it off, there was a photo book compiling the pictures of her performance and a hand written letter by her.

"Where did you get this?" Hyunsuk asked, "Is Yedam still alive?"

Junhyuk smiled brightly and nodded. He pulls sout his phone and waved it. Apparently he had joined the giveaway and there were only 5 people entitled to get one personal member present box. Junhyuk just happened to win.

Hyunsuk pay his head and hugged him tightly. "Youre... Choking... Me..."

Hyunsuk let go, "What do you want as a present? Cake? Ice cream? Cake and ice cream? Cds for dinner? Anything!"

Junhyuk shook his head. "I won this for you. You always teach me my homework, pack my lunch, tell me stories, give me warm hugs, take me to and from school. I want to do something for you!"

"Youre the best."

Yedam just went home from school and was tired. He opened the door to Team B's form because all the dorms were connected anyway. "Hey Keita..."
He groaned and flopped onto the couch when he heard a familiar song playing.

"Holy shit!" Yedam exclaimed, it was MillenialGen's performance in Hollywood on TV and he sat up. Keita laughed. Yedam cheered whenever it was his favorite person or line that came out.

Yedam wanted to rest his leg on the table when he saw a letter addressed to him. It was from his dad and he opened it. "Awww..." Yedam read the note but then a smaller card dropped from it, "YEEEEEEEEEEET!"

His dad had just gifted him a Nayumi and Shieun card. Nayumi from her filming and Shieun from the photo shoot. Along with it, his father said, "sometimes a man has to do his thing."

Yedam smiled and Keita looked over his shoulder whole handing him his chicken porridge. Yedam looked at the cards while shifting to sitting on the floor to eat his chicken porridge. "Keita, limited edition photocard, film photoshoot or fashion photo shoot?" Yedam was indesicive.

"Buy 4 phones and put one behind each." Keita joked.

"You buy me then." Yedam hissed jokishly. Keita smiled, "By the way I never seen Yoonbin... You know... Fan boy...."

Yedam thought for a moment. "Oh yeah. But I heard he has a crush on Hyewon."

"What?" Yoonbin entered the dorm.

"OH COME ON WE HAVE 4 DOORS CANT YOU CHOOSE THE ONE THAT GOES TO YOUR OWN DORM?"

"We are just thinking... Do you like a girl?" Yedam asked and Yoonbin laughed.

"Me? A girl? Of course not. I'm a career guy." Yoonbin turned to walk to his dorm through the dorm connecting doors.

---

Yoonbin reached his room where Yeongue was playing Rules of Survival. "How was school?"

"Fine..." Yoonbin sighed and pulled out his notebook turning to make sure Yeongue wasn't looking. Yeongue smirked. "Don't worry I saw it."

"What...?" Yoonbin turned to him.

"I mean when you lwvae your notebook overturned on the table, it's quite suspicious so I turned to look at the cover. Don't worry I won't tell anyone."

"thanks..."

"Yoonbin has a crushie! Yoonbin has a crushie! On who? Jung Hyewon!" Yeongue teased softly.

Yoonbin didn't react. He held the book tightly and sighed, zoning out. Yeongue happened to stop his game and sat up from the bed. "What's wrong Bro?" Yeongue asked.

"Yedam just asked me who I like..."

"Did you tell him?"

"I told him I was a career guy..." Yeongue tried not to chuckle but then cleared his throat. "You can't keep this a secret forever. Paper can't cover fire."

"I know... But as long as no one knows... Other than you... Its fine..."

"The time will come for you to face your fears." Yeongue went out to shower when Yoonbin turned to look at the cover with Hyewon on it.

He zoned out...

"Hi! I'm Jung Hyewon!" The little girl who had more intern experience smiled at him. He chuckled. "Hyewon is much prettier than you. You're not Hyewon. You're just an ugly and fat doppelganger."

"But-"

"Irs not like the media will care about you anyway. Maybe you can go be a backup dancer to shed those fats. You know do something useful." Young Yoonbin turned away.

"But Yoonbin!" She watched as he walked away...

The scene shifted to a year later. When Yoonbin received a note. A love confession.

"Did you receive it?" Young Hyewon asked and Yoonbin pulled out the note. He ripped it right in front of her face and her tears welled up. "If it was a beauty that sent me that, I would have a little respect. But you? It's useless."
Yoonbin left Hyewon alone to cry.

The flashback stopped. Yoonbin opened his eyes and his tears were dripping onto the cover. He used a tissue and cleaned thr cover gently.

"I'm sorry... For everything I did back then..." yoonbin whispered.
