Chapter 3 (Epilogue)

Secrets And Dreams

"Jiyoon-ah! Hurry up or you're going to be late for school!" shouted Tiffany when the girl took forever to change into her uniform.

"Sheesh. Why are you so loud?" groaned Taeyeon, appearing at the bedroom doorway with messy hair and eyes squinting at the light.

Tiffany ignored the protest as she knocked on Jiyoon's door. "Jiyoon-ah!"

"Alright! Alright! Calm down, Mom!" Jiyoon opened the door and frowned at Tiffany before she went to put on her shoes and jacket, sulking all the way. She didn't even greet Taeyeon when she walked past her.

Tiffany merely shook her head, took her purse, gave Taeyeon a very quick peck on the cheek then left the apartment with the quiet Jiyoon walking ahead of her.

What was that about? Taeyeon wondered as she went back to bed.

Her leave was almost over and Jiyoon's mood had been okay throughout. She seemed almost like her old self, cheerful and witty. Until today.

Taeyeon sighed and closed her eyes, hoping to be able to get an extra hour of sleep or two before Tiffany returned.

She woke up a couple of hours later to feel a leg draped over her own.

Turning her head, she blinked and saw Tiffany asleep next to her.

Taeyeon moved to lie on her side, pulled Tiffany closer and felt her snuggle. "Tired?" she whispered.

Tiffany groaned in reply.

Taeyeon's eyes opened fully. "I'll take that as a yes although I don't know why you're tired. We've been on leave for days, doing nothing but driving Jiyoon around and doing naughty things to each other when she's at school."

That earned her a pinch on the side and she squirmed while laughing out loud.

Tiffany lifted her head and looked up, squinting at Taeyeon.

"You look so unattractive," commented Taeyeon before she kissed Tiffany. "Christmas vacation is coming up. Where should we take Jiyoon this year? Skiing? Or would you rather we stay put? Enjoying freezing Seoul."

"I'm fine either way. You should ask her," mumbled Tiffany.

"I think I know what her answer might be. She'd want to stay in Seoul so she could hang out with her friends and that boy."

"I'm not so sure about that," Tiffany said as she pulled away and stretched.

"Huh? Why?"

"Didn't you see how she was behaving this morning?"

"Yes but I thought it was puberty kicking in."

"It was puberty related but most importantly, boy related. Overheard her on the phone last night." Tiffany yawned and went back to her previous position, snuggling against Taeyeon.

"Uh oh. Should I get my gun?"

"I don't know exactly what happened but I heard a very loud 'how could he?' and this morning she was trying to get out of going to school so something must have happened."
