"Chao-Xing please! Give it back!" The young boy yelled as he reached for the package in my tiny hands.

"Chao-Xing!" He mumbled reaching for the package.

"It's not just for you, Chao-Xiang!" I say my voice squeaky and childish.

"But I want to open it!" Chao-Xiang mutters in his childish voice.

"No! That's unfair! Grandma sent it from China for both of us!" I exclaim in my childish voice.

"Hmmp!"

"Children please, let's open it together! Then we can go out for birthday dinner." Mother exclaims taking the box from my little fingers.

"Where's Father?" Chao-Xiang questions looking up at mother. "Is he going to come with us."

"No sweety, unfortionally he is.. He is out.. Doing work." Mother says uncertainly.

"I miss Daddy!" I say looking up at Mother.

"Me too!" Chao-Xiang exclaims.

Mother holds out the box. With a knife she cuts the tape, she grabs out two presents. One thick rectangular box and one skinny rectangular.

"Chao-Xing this one is yours, and Chao-Xiang this is yours" Mother says passing me the rectangular box.

"Woah, a microphone! How did she know I wanted to be a singer?" I say studying the microphone.

"A 'How to be a Actor' book! How did she know I wanted to be an actor?" Chao-Xiang says holding up the book.

"I may or may not of told Grandma what you like!" Mother says. "Now you can practise when ever you want!"

"Oh mommy thank you!" I say hugging mother. "You can sing with me! Mommy your the best singer ever!"

"And you can act with me too!" Chao-Xiang chimes in.

"Oh sure I would love to."

"Chunhua!" I heard daddy's voice ring through the house.

"Appa!" Chao-Xiang says running out to greet him.

"Chao-Xiang come back here please, father will come to us." Mother says rushing Chao-Xiang back to us in the lounge room.

"Why mother?" Chao-Xiang asks.

"Please, go to your rooms, Father isn't happy." Mother says.

"Chunhua, stop feeding my children with such dirty language. I told you they will only speak Korean understand?" Father came into the lounge room holding a glass bottle. Mum rushed us up to our bedrooms. I didn't hear much after that, only a lot of screaming.

-Current time-

All I could do was sit there. I couldn't sleep. My brother is alive...

"Are you alright?" I heard a voice from behind me, one of the guys as they slept over.

"I-I couldn't s-sleep." I say unconsiously sobbing.

"It thought you slept all the time?" The person questions.
