Get It Right | Kim Seungmin

Chapter 3

"Okay, repeat that for me, please," you ask sternly, paying attention to every word that was coming out of the boy's mouth.

"Minju, I don't know why you're so worried. Don't you trus-"

"I said repeat it, swine," you snap at Jungwoo, clearly not taking any of this lightly. Even though you did trust him, the worry for your grandmother was way too large for you to just let it be. You wanted your grandmother to feel as if you were there while you took your time in New York. Even going as far as making a whole list you and your grandmother would do everyday for Jungwoo to follow.

Jungwoo heaves a sigh before speaking, tired as it was already his third time repeating your list, "Wake her up at six o'clock to take her on a walk until half past six. Make breakfast at seven then wash the dishes. Make lunch at 11:30 then clean the house afterwards. Take her out to dinner twice a week and have dinner at home for the rest."

"There. Am I done now?"

"You missed baking," you sneer at him, giving his forehead a flick with your fingers as he winces in pain.

"Alright, alright. Just go already. They're all waiting for you outside," Jungwoo says as he pushes you out of the house, not giving you a chance to say goodbye to your grandmother.

"Wait, let me kiss her goodby-"

"Go," he interrupts you. "Besides, she's still sleeping."

"See, Jungwoo you failed alread-"

"It's 5:30 in the morning, Minju! Geez, stop being so paranoid about nothing and go enjoy your trip," Jungwoo answers back as he laughs at your frantic state, opening the car door and pushing you inside where all your best fiends were waiting for you.

As he shut the door of the van, he waved goodbye to all of you, everyone except Chris returning the action.

"I don't like what I'm seeing, Minju," Chris lowly speaks as he looks at you from the driver's seat.

"Shut up, Chris. Nothing's going to happen between them. Stop being overprotective," Minho scoffs at him, giving you a wink as he sits beside you. Chris continued the drive to the airport. It was early in the morning, but the car ride was not even a slight bit peaceful.

You were all really excited to go together, especially Jeongin. There was nonstop chatter and Felix even tried to climb his way to the front since he was seated at the very back, complaining that he was missing out on all the fun. But you all pushed him back down on his seat collectively, worried for his safety before Chris screamed at him for standing up.

In the end, Felix was a little pouty, but that was disregarded when you all had laid eyes at a convenience store, begging Chris to make a stop and grab some snacks with your charms. You noticed Felix's sulking behaviour, so when it was time to go back, you transferred to the back (since you two were pretty small and had enough space), sharing with him some of your famous cuddles. Although you did get whines from Jeongin and Minho (who were your seat mates), you shrugged it off as you saw how happy Felix was when he realized he was no longer alone.

The car ride soon came to a halt as you reached the airport, even though you swore that you had only gotten in the car a few minutes ago.

"Alright. Get out, behemoths, and go grab your luggages," Chan instructs all of you, setting the car engine off as you all stepped down the vehicle.

You all went to the back of the car, getting the luggages from Seungmin and Changbin who were taking them out from the back.

As your were about to take your own luggage from Seungmin, he stopped before you could even grab the bag.

"Why's yours so heavy?" He asks, lifting the bag up and down to test its weight.

"I have a lot of things in there," you reply, reaching for it but missing as Seungmin pulled it away from your reach.

"I'll carry it. Your thin arms could never," Seungmin remarks, earning a playful hit on his arm which carried the bag as he pretends to get hurt.

After all the red tape, you guys were finally able to rest by the benches where people would wait for their planes. It wasn't even lunchtime yet, yet there were already so many people—groups, families, and single passengers. Some carried excessive amounts of luggages and some only carried few. You watched as people would come and go from the arrival and the boarding gates. You really were amazed at the mechanism of the airports.

Although you knew from what you heard that when you travel to other places, you usually buy your plane tickets to and from the destination at the same time. Strangely, you guys were instructed by Chris' uncle to only buy tickets going to New York.

Hey, at least you won't go broke that early, right?

You looked out one of the big windows which showed the open area. It was filled mostly with grass and some takeoff and landing roads. As your eyes roamed around the open field, you saw the countless airplane figures. You remembered the toy plane you once had (which was the closest thing you got to an actual airplane) and matched it with the ones you were seeing now. The uncanny resemblance wasn't the most shocking thing as Chris had already told you that the replica was pretty much on point, but the size of the real life version was truly breathtaking.

"Now boarding flight number 236 at gate number 55," the airline speakers announce throughout the large building.

As people start to gather around at gate 55, Chris excitingly calls out to all of you, "That's our flight, kids. Grab your bags and let's get it!"

After Chris had informed you guys, you hear Jeongin who sat beside you murmur, "Gosh, he's such a dad."

You all stood up to grab your bags (again, Seungmin taking yours as he still thought your slender arms were too weak) and approached the long line in front of the two airline staff whom checked every passenger's ticket, making sure none of them would either get on the wrong flight or sneak in without a ticket.

The line grew shorter over time, and it was soon your turn to hand in your ticket. Showing a bright smile, the lady gently received your ticket, checking the flight number and ripping out the right half of the ticket, then asking you to proceed. You bow back at her as you felt it was common courtesy, but you only received a few chuckles from the boys behind you.

"What?" You ask them, wondering why they expressed such reactions.

"Nothing. It's just that I've never really seen anyone bow back at the airport lady," Felix laughs again, swinging his arm over you and leading you to the aircraft.

You question his reaction, speaking up, "Well, excuse me for me politeness."

"Yeah, right, Minju. It's your first time, you'll learn," he says as you both near the entrance to the plane. At the sight of the two stewardesses leading the people in, you grew excited but also nervous. You had always seen the news on the television about airplane crashes, and that made you worry.

Noticing your sudden change, Felix comforts you, "There's nothing to be nervous about, Minju. Chris chose the best airline for us. You know him."

"He may have chosen the best one, but anything could happen, Lix. I am way too young and handsome to die. The world will mourn at my death," Hyunjin speaks nervously as he stood beside you, grabbing your arm and yanking it up and down.

"Yah, can you not be so negative? Look at the bright side! We're going to New York!" Felix exclaims, giving you both an exciting smile and you watched as the two of them converse.

"The only bright side here is the sun, and people get blinded when they look at it through a telescope, so your reasoning is invalid."
