"SO let's go over the plan one more time, okay?" mia announced, pacing from the head of her bed to the foot of it.

jeongguk shook his head, "this is like the third time. and it's not even a big plan." he sat up from his new bed.

"well i think it is," mia shrugged, playfully rolling her eyes at him. "so we're repeating it again. from the top!" she clapped.

jeongguk's head jerked up and his eyes widened as he gave a warning look at mia.

she pouted then realized she was being loud. she covered her mouth and mumbled "sorry."

"the plan?" jeongguk asked with a playful smile.

"yes okay so i'm going to work tomorrow at the bookstore where there must be a bunch of books filled with supernatural stuff that could help us figure out what happened. meanwhile you stay home and hang and try to recall anything that might help," mia started. she took a deep breathe. "but before i get home, i'll stop buy the costume store and get us some disguises just in case."

"okay, got it."

the doorbell suddenly rang.

mia's eyes locked with jeongguk.

"i'll be back," she whispered and jolted up, scrambling to open the door and lock it behind her.

"it's the pizza," daniel said, hanging up from his phone call.

mia sighed in relief. who knows who it could have been!

he was about to stand up from the couch but mia slid down the hall with her socks and announced that he would get it.

daniel shrugged and passed mia the money.

"mia be a little quieter will you?" her dad scolded, as he looked through the mail in the dinner table. "your mom is sleeping."

mia quietly apologized and then opened the door.

the pizza guy gave her a worried look as he passed her the food. in exchange, she gave him the money.

"umm before you eat can i just ask...um have you seen this boy?" he asked, fishing out a picture from his jacket pocket. "he's a famous singer. he's missing."

mia's eyes widened. it was jeongguk.

"i've never seen him before, sorry," mia quickly said.

"well he's been kidnapped by this girl with some highlights—you know i kinda forgot what color it was. was it purple? no, i think it was red! hmm. i'll show you the video—"

"it's okay i'll remember his face if i see it bye!" mia slammed the door on his face and the poor pizza guy slowly walked away.

daniel eyed his sister as she placed the pizza on the coffee table.

"where's my change?"

"up your butt," mia said absentmindedly. she was too preoccupied at the moment.

she slowly walked to the kitchen and washed her hands before grabbing two disposable plates, but keeping one on top of the other.

her mind was buzzing like the way it does when she took a difficult test at school. the search for jeongguk was beginning to show and soon she would be recognizable. her parents would notice her on tv maybe even her coworkers.

mia managed to get herself half a pie on the plate and a disposable cup—well, really it was two cups but again on top of the other so her brother would not see she had two cups and question her weirdness—full of soda.
