The weekend went pretty fast. My days were packed too. I immediately go to my cousin's company to help her with the album and spend the day there.

Another week has come, we started to get busy. Our teachers gave us numerous projects and exams. Right now, I'm busy with this geo-hazard map that was given to us last Monday and is on due tomorrow then, my phone rang.

"Hello?" I put my phone on loud speaker.

"Are you busy?" I heard that familiar deep yet calm voice.

"Kinda, why?"

"Oh, okay. I just miss you but finish your things first and don't forget our date on friday."

"Yes, I won't forget it."

"I'll hang up now. See ya, Yuri!"

"See ya, Vin." I ended the call and continued doing the map. After a few more minutes, I'm done.

I went down to see what's for dinner. I sat down on the counter top and watched Mama cook.

"What's for tonight, Mama?"

"Spicy braised sea food, your favorite." I suddenly became excited.

"Your parents aren't going home tonight. They said that they'll be having some meetings later." I nodded with what she said.

"What about Chan?" I asked referring to my baby brother.

"He's in his room and I prepared some pork for him." I stood and proceeded to my brother's room.

I knocked before entering and saw him playing by himself.

"Hey, saeng." He looked at me immediately and dropped his toys.

"Noona!" He jumped at me. I kissed his cheeks and hugged him really tight.

"How's my baby boy?" I asked him.

"I'm doing good, noona. My teacher gave me stars for today." He showed me his papers and books.

"My boy's so cool." I ruffled his hair and smiled at him.

"I got it from my noona!" He smiled widely at me.

"Let's go, we'll eat." We went out of his room and walked to the dining area. Soon after, our dinner was served. Mama assisted my brother for his food while I digged in immediately. I ate a serving of rice and finished all the sea foods.

After eating, I guided my brother to his room and tucked him in.

"Sleep here, noona!" He showed me his puppy eyes.

"Sure." I laid by his side and soon enough, he fell asleep. I kissed his forehead and closed my eyes too.

I woke up feeling a movement on the bed. I opened my eyes and saw that my brother is getting dressed for school.

"What...What time is it?" I asked and groaned when I felt my shoulder ached.

"It's 7:36 in the morning."

"I'll go back to my room and sleep there." I, again, groaned with pain. I felt like my shoulder was hammered. I stretched it along the way. As I smell the scent of my room, I immediately jumped to my bed and closed my eyes. My shoulder hurts so much.

"I'm awake!" I heard some soft giggles when I suddenly jolted from my bed.

"Hey, sleepyhead." I blink a few times and saw the blue-haired human in front of me.
