*PHONE RINGS*

Soovin got up from her bed to pick up her phone.

"Hello?"

"Hello? Vin-ssi!"

"Aunt Shinhye?"

-

"Oi hyung...you're being all frowny again."

"I'm so tired, Lix."

Changbin rubbed his temple. Felix rested his elbows on his knees.

"Of what?"

"Of running after the girl I love when she just keeps leaving me. Soovin is going to abandon me like this again, Lix. I wasn't planning to get back with her when we met, but after how she made me feel, she got me wrapped around her finger once again."

Changbin explained as he ran his hand through his hair.

"And the last time she talked to me, she seemed so upset and hurt as if I did something but I don't know what."

"Have you tried convincing her that you stayed loyal? Or at least ask her what you've done to hurt her?"

"I did, but I didn't get the answer. Whatever, I just need a break from all this. Like she said, maybe it'll be better off this way..."

Felix looked at him in apologetically. Changbin never stopped loving Soovin even when she left.

"What happened to that mark on your neck? Wait- is that a hickey?!"

"N-no! It's kind of a weird story. It happened when Changmi was over."

"Who is Changmi?"

-

Soovin was in her room with Minho helping her to pack her luggage. Her flight to Japan was in 2 days already. Soovin's aunt gave her another opportunity to work abroad and this time, Soovin accepted it.

"You're leaving me again, huh?"

Soovin chuckled slightly.

"You don't have to act like you're upset."

"You might be really annoying sometimes but that doesn't mean I want you gone, idiot. I'm so lonely here all by myself."

Minho wasn't the type to pour out his feelings but to be honest, he was really sad that he could cry. He's just holding it in. He loves and cares for Soovin even though they are basically like cats and dogs every so often.

"What you need is a girlfriend, Minho."

"If they are just like you, then no thanks. I'd rather have cats."

"Yah!"

Soovin laughed as she threw a pillow at his direction.

"I'm gonna miss you too, bro. And thank you for everything."

Minho cringed in response but Soovin knew he was saying 'You're welcome' telepathically, if it makes sense...

-

Minho was out for his dance classes so Soovin stayed in the house alone. She was laying on the sofa in the living room, watching a movie with an empty ice cream container on the table.

"Don't worry, I won't let you go."

There was a scene on an ice rink in the drama. It reminded Soovin of the time when she went ice skating with Changbin.

"Great..."

Soovin scoffed. An image of him popped up in her mind and all the other memories with him. She misses Changbin so much.

Soovin grabbed her gadget and decided to phone someone.

"Hello?"

"Seungmin? It's Soovin."

Soovin said followed by her sniff.

"What's wrong? Soovin are you okay?"

"M-mind if you hear me out?"

-

Changbin was playing Felix's video games while Felix was in the kitchen baking some cookies and brownies. Being a good friends he is, he was just trying to cheer him up with some sweets.

*PHONE RINGS*

His phone rang and died in the game. He let out a groan before answering the call.

"What?"

"Changbin hyung I know I must be misunderstanding. But who is Changmi?"

Changbin raised an eyebrow at his question.

"How do you know her?"

"Why was she at your place hyung? I was never informed about you having a FIANCÉ!"

Changbin was still trying to process. He cleared his throat as soon as he came back to consciousness.

"Changbin hyung! What now?"

"That's not how it is."

FLASHBACK LAST WEEK

Changbin opened his door after someone rang the doorbell.

"Hey Changbinie!"

Changmi pushed pass him and entered his apartment.

"Changmi what the hell are you doing here?"

Changbin closed the door and went after her.

"We are back in town. And my parents are meeting up with yours right now so I thought I'd come by."

"Aish, I thought my parents made it clear that I don't want to set a marriage with you."

Changmi's parents Mr Song and Mrs Song owned a big company themselves just like the Seo family. And getting them both married would increase the business when their parents will hand them over the company one day.

But Changbin and his parents already disagreed to the offer. Mr Seo and Mrs Seo didn't want Changbin to suffer from an arranged marriage. Besides, they knew exactly whom his heart already belongs to ;)

Changmi sat on the couch comfortably and started scrolling through her phone.

"Ey Bin, it's not me who had the idea. It's my parents."

"Ok, but aren't you against it? Don't you wanna stop them?"

"I've got nothing to lose, Changbin. You're not that bad looking so why not?"

Changbin let out a sigh.

"Yes, you're going to loose your freedom of loving someone naturally."

"Oh believe me, I've loved multiple guys but they just all ended up in my break up list. I'm not meant to be loved..."

She replied casually and Changbin crossed his arms.

"Changmi, that just means the right one for you hasn't come yet. But I'm sure he will one day. Trust me, falling in love with each other freely is the best thing that could happen to you."

Changmi wasn't focusing on her phone anymore and tried to avoid Changbin's gaze.

"You sure?"

"Oh I bet my whole life."

Changmi chuckled and looked at him.

"Okay then, I'll talk to my parents. You're blushing, you have someone in your heart already?"

A wide grin appeared on his face as soon as Soovin came into his mind.

"Yeah."

"Before I go, can I curl my hair? Do you have a curler?"
