Yoongi and I entered the house and I lied down on the couch. "Ahhh, I'm so tired.", I said. "Then sleep.", Yoongi said.

I scowled at him and he smiled. I closed my eyes and smiled. I recounted Jin comforting me. His voice was very gentle and comforting.

I giggled as I remembered him trying to comfort me. Yoongi looked at me confusedly. "Why're you laughing?", Yoongi asked. "Nothing.", I replied.

I knew that I was going to get teased by him. I wasn't the type to just have a crush suddenly. I just smiled at him.

"Mhmm...sure.", Yoongi said sarcastically. He rolled his eyes and got his phone out of his bag. He opened it and gasped.

"What's wrong?", I asked. He just stared at his phone, his widened eyes glued to the screen and his mouth slightly open.

I decided to look move nearer him to look at what he was seeing. Eomma miscalled 2 times.

I was in shock as well. Eomma? Did I read the screen correctly? I shook my head and blinked my eyes many times to make sure I was seeing the correct words.

I slapped my cheeks to make sure I wasn't dreaming or going crazy. As I was gonna slap myself again, Yoongi gripped on my hand.

"It's no use. I'm seeing the same thing as you so don't even bother thinking that you're going mad.", Yoongi said, he let go of my hand.

I wriggled my fingers and bit my lip. "M-Maybe you should call again?", I suggested uncertainly.

Yoongi hesitantly clicked the 'call' button. We both waited for eomma to respond to the call.

"Yeobeoseyo.", eomma greeted cheerfully. "Yeobeoseyo, eomma.", we greeted back. Yoongi and glanced at each other since she didn't respond to our greeting.

Yoongi cleared his throat and I saw him gulp. "Aishh, why're you both so quiet now? Did something bad happen?", eomma asked.

Yoongi and I nervously laughed. "Ani, eomma. It's not anything like that. It's just that...", Yoongi couldn't finish his sentence.

"Wae? I left with no explanation?", eomma asked. "N-ne.", I replied softly. She sighed through the phone.

"What am I going to do with both of you?", she asked. Yoongi and I just kept quiet. She always asked the same question when we gave her a hard time.

Yoongi and I were looking down. "This isn't going to solve anything so let's move on to another topic.", eomma said.

"Hwa Young," Yoongi looked at me and I looked at him back. "Ne, eomma.", I said. "How's your work?", eomma asked.

"Kind of tiring, but other than that, I'm good.", I answered. "Great. I knew that company was the right one for you.", eomma said happily. I smiled and nodded even if I knew she couldn't see me.

"Yoongi, are you alright?", eomma asked. "Ne, eomma. How is appa?", Yoongi asked. "Ah. He's alright. He's a workaholic...Aishh, he always goes home late because of that. Like now, he's not home yet.", eomma complained.

"Is that why you called us?", I asked. "Ne. I also missed both of you very much. You know, both of you should learn English. Appa can speak English now.", eomma bragged.

"How was it speaking to him again?", Yoongi asked. "He speaks in Korean with a foreign accent.", eomma said.

"Is he still fluent?", I asked. "Ne. Obviously, he has a hard time with saying difficult words because of speaking in English for a long time.", eomma said.

I could hear a door open from Yoongi's phone. Appa was probably home. "Oh! Ji Hoon, you're home!", eomma exclaimed. Yoongi and I heard eomma kiss his cheek.

Both of us cringed at her. "Eomma, can we video call so we can see appa's face?", I asked. "Oh yeah.", eomma said.

We switched to video call and I saw appa. He had grown a beard now. I guess he grew it because of the influence of the Australian men.

"Oh my. Are you really my children?", appa asked. I teared up at the sight of appa. My eyes blurred and I quickly wiped my eyes. "Aishh, Hwa Young, don't cry.", appa said while laughing.

I couldn't help it. How many years had it been since I've seen him. I was so happy that I was crying tears of joy.

"Yoongi, why're you also speechless?", appa asked. I looked at Yoongi after wiping my eyes. It was obvious that he was trying to keep calm but his mouth was slightly open.

"Uhm...appa, it's good to see you. It's been a long time.", Yoongi said, calmly. "Yes, it has been a long time. How's your work?", appa asked.

"I'm doing well in work. I'm not that lazy. Hwa Young also has a job now.", Yoongi said. "That's good. I'm pretty sure if she stayed at home, she would jut get fat.", appa said while chuckling.

"Appa, I'm here too.", I reminded. Appa just smiled at me and I smiled back. "You know what, I have an idea.", appa said.

Yoongi and I sat up straighter than usual. We always did that when he was about to tell us an idea.

"How about you both come here to Australia and have a nice vacation?", appa suggested. Yoongi and I looked at each other and nodded as we faced him again.

"New Year's?", appa suggested. Yoongi and I nodded. I smiled so much that my cheeks started to hurt for smiling too much.

"Okay then. Appa and I have to sleep. We'll be getting up early tomorrow. There's a wedding we have to attend tomorrow.", eomma said. I slightly pouted but nodded.

Yoongi and I waved to our parents and we stopped the video call. I slumped on the couch and Yoongi was busy fixing his bag.

"We should head to bed. We have to get up early tomorrow.", Yoongi said. I nodded and stood up from the couch.

"I can't believe I saw appa with my own two eyes.", I said. "Well, you just did.", Yoongi said. I glared at him and he just gave me his signature gummy smile.

I entered my room and washed up. Afterwards, I laid on my bed and went under the covers.

I charged my phone and smiled before falling to a good and restful sleep.
