"Where are we going this early morning!" Jisung complained when you pulled his blanket off. He squirmed around, looking for the blanket which you already threw on the floor.

Soon when Jisung saw you were not interested in answering his question, he got up on his feet and paddled to the bathroom to wash himself.

You took Jisung to breakfast at a nearby cafe for breakfast. Ordering burgers for him since he had been craving about it for a few days.

You could see in his eyes that he's questioning your act in his mind. "Jisung, what would you like to do the most? We'll do it today," You munched the burger as you asked him.

Jisung hummed thinking of anything he wanted to do. It quickly clicked in his head that he didn't get to do a lot of fun things with his sister. "Shopping. Let's go shopping, we don't even need to buy anything. Just window shopping?" He smiled, already excited thinking of it.

You nodded, smiling as you understood why he chose that activity out of all.

Both of you took the cab to Lotte Department Store since both of you had never been there. Jisung only heard from Chenle that it would be fun to explore the shops in the mall.

Jisung had been all smiles when he spotted the arcade, and he pulled you to the machines.

You were in awe when he could ace the dance machine easily, you figured he must have been dancing secretly to be this good. You laughed seeing he almost got the whole arcade's attention with his screams and noise due to excitement.

"Noona did you see that!" He laughed, pointing at the scoreboard, an A for him. "You are awesome Jisung!" You exclaimed.

"Noona, let's play basketball. The winner will get a wish," He challenged and you agreed.

Your jaw dropped when you saw his score was very far ahead from yours and he was indeed focused on winning.

In the end, you gave up, deciding to sabotage him, pushing him while he was playing and he whined.

"Noona, if you are a loser, admit it, " He threw a sarcasm, still trying to throw the basketball over your head and successfully into the hoop.

"Fine, fine. What wish do you want that you are so determined?" You huffed. That made Jisung grin, clasping his hands together, "Can I please have a walk by myself for a while?"

You frowned, if he wanted to buy something why wouldn't he just tell you. Of course, you couldn't tell him no, you nodded giving him an okay sign.

"And now, can you please order some food at the food court and I'll meet you later. I'll try to not take a long time, I swear!" Jisung's eyes were wide as if trying to put a spell on you to believe in him.

You chuckled, nodding again. "Be safe! Don't wander around for too long,"

Jisung was fast to leave the arcade and jogged somewhere.

You had ordered Budae Jjigae for both of you and you were watching the news while waiting for Jisung. The news was still the same, still in your family's case and the picture of both of you are displayed again.

None of the people there noticed that you were one of the missing children the police were searching for since they were busy spending time with their loved ones. Plus, both of you had been wearing a cap and mask the whole time.

But this news would die soon when you surrender yourself to the police station tonight.

You had made your mind to go alone and Haechan was ready to help. That's why you decided to spend your time with Jisung today since you wouldn't know how it would turn out.

Whether you would be trapped in jail or being released after some investigation.

"Noona!" You snapped out of your thoughts when you heard Jisung, walking over to you with a paper bag in his hands. He sat opposite you and grinned widely, placing the paper bag on the table.

Pure shock was written on your face.

"What is this?"

"Open it!" Jisung exclaimed and once you had your hands on it, you took it out. Two pairs of sky blue hoodie, written 'OHANA' on it.

"Ohana means family in Hawaiian and I'm giving this to you since you protected me since I was little, just like how dad acts. You also have been feeding me good food, just how moms should do and you are always the one I can lean on, just how noona should be," Jisung smiled.

His words touched your heart, tears were threatening to fall but you held back.

However, immediately you felt sorry for him. You'll leave him behind.

Looking up to his eyes, you could see the glint of happiness in them. "Thank you Jisung. You are indeed a good little brother," You smile, putting back the hoodie in the bag. "Eat up, it'll get cold,"

Jisung was very satisfied with himself. He was grinning while eating, it took him a lot of time to save up some money at school. Luckily, Chenle's family gave him some angpao on Lunar New Year.

Jisung's eyes avert to the tv screen. Only now realizing that both of you are wanted by the police. His eyes dropped, fear took over him, "Noona, we-"

"It's okay, it'll just be me." You cut him off, making him confused.

Your eyes were looking at his back, two people walking over to you. "What?" Jisung asked, confused but soon followed your eyes.

He recognized one of them was Haechan. He was anxious and he started to panic when he saw you packing up, wiping your mouth. "Noona, what's going on?"

"You'll go back with Haechan, okay?" You stood up, Jisung followed.

Jisung shook his head vigorously. "No, I'll go wherever you'll go,"

"Yoojin," Haechan was already at your table and you smiled at him, nodding then smiled at the person Haechan brought. "I'm Detective Han, and I'll take you to the police station,"

Jisung's world came crashing down when he realized what was happening. "Let me go with you. Noona! I'm your brother!" Jisung desperately said.

Forcing a smile, you tried to assure him. "Jisung, you are never involved in this case. I'll just get investigated and I'll pick you up at Haechan's," You tell him though you don't know what will happen later.

"Let's go, Detective Han," You walked off, while Haechan, trying to hold Jisung back.

"Jisung! Stop being so protective. Your sister is going to be okay. I promise you. I'll get her out." Haechan held Jisung's shoulder firmly.

Haechan was afraid too, for what will happen. He just wanted you to be innocent in this case, he was ready to put his life on it if you are not coming back to him.

"She'll be back, Jisung" Haechan patted the younger's back who was sobbing in Haechan's arms.
