The eleven year old boy laughed as Hyejin shoved a cardboard sword into Chenle's stomach. They all giggled.

"Taeyong hyung! Help me!" Chenle shouted to him.

The eleven year old boy ran to Hyejin and shot her with his cardboard gun,"Betrayer!!" Taeyong said to the girl who fake coughed on the ground.
He ran to Chenle and pulled him on his lap.

"Don't die!!" Taeyong sobbed as he stroked the hair of the Chinese boy.

"别担心,我在这里救您!" Renjun said as he ran towards his friends.

Hyejin's coughing came to an end. "Hey injunie could you speak a language we all understand please" she said,crossing her arms over each other.

Everyone laughed.

"Ms. Nam Hyejin it's time to go!" a woman said playfully as she went up to Hyejin,her mint dress dragged across the grass of the Nam family's backyard. The woman picked her four year old daughter up into her arms while the girl giggled.

"Bye guys!! I'll come back one day! And you guys better not let NCT go!!" Hyejin yelled to her friends with a glare on her face.

"Bye Hyejin-ah!!" Renjun said, waving his hand while Mark and Chenle put their arms around the boy. They waved for Hyejin to come in the group hug and Hyejin slipped out of her mother's arms and ran to them as the rest of the boys joined.

All of the children felt tears flood their eyes and soon stain their cheeks; the whole group soaked one another's shirts with their tears.

Soon, their hug ended when Hyejin backed away while rubbing her eyes.

"Bye guys...." she whispered shakily before slowly walking back to her mom.

"C'mon honey...I already got your things from your room" Hyejin's mother gestured towards the pile of boxes inside the living room. Hyejin nodded at her mother.

She took one last look at the group of kids she thought she would spend the rest of her life with...until her dad got a new business opportunity that required them to move to America for at least 10 years. Taeyong,the oldest, gave her a soft smile which reassured her that everything would be alright.

Hyejin turned back to the glass door which now had both her mother and her father standing beside each other, looking down at her.




And she never turned back since then
