“Have you got the keys?” ChoonHee asked AeYun as she stood infront of her old home.

She nodded and clutched the keys tighter.
She took a deep breath and unlocked the door.

As the old creaky door revealed light inside the now dark and gloomy house, AeYun shakily walked inside, flashbacks of her past with her grandfather came and whirled around her head.

She clutched the necklace that wrapped around her neck and took a deep breath.

She shook all the thoughts in her head away and walked towards her old room.

“AeYun-ah, I just came here to remind you that we’re leaving in 2 hours so, we can pack up a bit.” Eunmi said as she stood behind AeYun.

“Ok, I think that’s a good idea. We’ll get ready an hour or so before we go.” AeYun smiled.

“Arasou.” She replied smiling back.

AeYun turned back to her old room and examined it.

It wasn’t much. It just had a bed, a small desk with a few stuff on it, a single bed, a closet and a few things lying around on the floor.

“I better get started.” She muttered to herself, picking up the stuff on her floor and placing them in her suitcase.

[ChoonHee’s POV]

“What’d she say?” I asked Eunmi as she walked back to the living room.

“She said she’ll start packing now and get ready and hour before we leave.” She answered back.

“Ara.” I nodded my head and started wrapping some fragile figurines with newspaper. One by one I placed them in the box next to me.

Eunmi was doing the same thing.

“It was nice of the boys to offer us a home in theirs.” She started.

I nodded my head, even though she couldn’t see me, she knew I did it anyways.

“Yeah, but, I think it’s better that we’re moving in just across from them.” I replied wrapping a small angel figurine from the shelf and placing it on top of the other figurines.

“Yeah, it’s kinda weird how there was an available spot right across from their apartment and...we were looking for a place as well...It’s like so coincidental...But whatever.” She shrugged standing up and carefully sealing the box that she’s finished packing.

“That’s true...well it doesn’t matter now. We’ve found a place to say in and that’s all that matters now.” I replied standing up and doing a couple of stretches.

But I couldn’t help but smile at what happened yesterday.

[Flashback]

“YOU’RE STAYING HERE!!” Hongki screamed at us, well more like me.

“NO WE’RE NOT!” I screamed even louder.

“YES YOU ARE!!!!” He screamed even louder.

“PABO! I ALREADY SAID WE’RE NOT! SO WE’RE NOT!!!” I yelled at the top of my lungs.

He took a deep breath and was about to yell even louder when Eunmi and Jonghoon got pillows and hit us with them.

“OW! WTF!” Hongki yelled.

“YAH! PABO WTH!!” I yelled towards Eunmi.

“You’re gonna make the neighbours complain.” Eunmi stared at me boredly.

“Besides, the room across from us is available. You guys can stay there. I’ve seen it, it’s really nice.” Jonghoon said smiling at me.

“But how much do we have to pay for it?” AeYun asked.

“Not much really. The rents about $50 a week, but if you can’t pay even that, the manager always gives you at least 2 more weeks to find a way to pay for it.” Jaejin said.

“$50 a week? I think we can manage that.” I grinned.

"I can use that $50 Hongki still owes me!" I grinned even more.

"BUT THAT'S NOT FAIR!!" He whined.

“Hang on...I wanna see it first.” Eunmi said heading towards the door.

My grin dropped as I lifelessly stared at her.

“Are you serious? Jonghoon already said it was good but- Wait a sec...you just wanna...WAIT NO!” I ran as fast as I could as I realized what she was trying to do.

“PABO I AM SO GETTING A BETTER ROOM THAN YOU!” She yelled as she was already in the other apartment room.

“NOT IF I CAN HELP IT!” I yelled back.

“Aish, they’re so loud.” Wonbin whined.
Miyoung giggled and hugged him.

Minhwan covered his eyes and yelled “CENSCORED LOVE SCENE!!!”

[End of Flashback]

I let out a low chuckle and turned around, only to find Eunmi smiling at me.

“Reminiscing in the past I see.”

I rolled my eyes and strutted into their kitchen.

I looked around the empty room as a small weary smile found its way on my lips.

I closed my eyes and imagined seeing Halapoji cooking some of his famous Fried Rice. He called it his Triple fill rice. It sounds weird but it actually makes perfect sense.

[Flashback]

“Halapoji!! THIS FRIED RICE IS AMAZING!!” I exclaimed as I stopped myself from drooling all over the rice.

“Hahaha, Gomawo ChoonHee, It’s my special Triple fill rice.” He smiled warmly at me.

“Triple...Fill??” I asked curiously.

“Yes, Triple fill, it has 3 main toppings, and those 3 main toppings happen to be your favourites. Corn for AeYun, Beated egg for Eunmi and Bacon, for you!” He grinned as he placed some fish on my plate.

“Omo, Halapoji’s Triple fill rice!! Yay!” AeYun squealed as she dragged Eunmi to the diner table.

“Triple Fill? What a peculiar name.” Eunmi chuckled.

“Yes! But it’s OUR special rice!” I grinned at her.

“Hahaha, it sure is.” Halapoji said.

[End of Flashback]

A tear rolled down my cheeks as I remembered that as if it was only yesterday.

Every memory I had of Halapoji...made me want to cry. I knew I loved him, he was so caring. I knew that he was a very special person to me and that no one can replace him...not even my own grandparents treat me with as much love and care as he does. Knowing all this...made my heart ache. I can’t believe...he was gone...forever.

Without noticing it the tears just kept flowing down I was down on the floor, sobbing my heart out.

“Hapaloji...Halapoji...Waeyo?? Waeyo?!” I managed to stutter out as I cried harder.

I heard footsteps coming towards the kitchen, but I just kept on crying. Normally I would’ve stood up straight away, wiping my tears away and fixing myself up...but I was weak. I had no energy to lie.

“*gasp* ChoonHee...” Eunmi whispered.

I heard her walk closer to me, she placed a hand on my shoulder and hugged me.

“Shh...ChoonHee...stop crying...Halapoji wouldn’t want seeing his ‘Strong Baby’ crying.” She said gently to me as she held me in her arms, trying to calm me down.

"If...if it hurts this much for me...can you-can you just imagine how AeYun's feeling?" I stated.

[Flashback]

“I’M HOME!!” I exclaimed as I walked inside AeYun’s house.

“Haha ChoonHee, so glad to see that you’ve made my home yours.” Halapoji said in his weary and tired voice.

His skin was pale and he was bending down, his arm on his back.

“Halapoji? Gwenchana?” I asked as Eunmi and AeYun walked inside the house.

“*gasp* Halapoji! You’re burning up!” I said as I felt his forehead.

*cough* “Aniyo, I’m fine.” He said swatting my hand away.

“Halapoji, I told you not to fertilize your garden while it rained.” AeYun said as she helped me walk Halapoji towards his chair.

“Aigo, Halapoji you’re getting heavier.” AeYun stated.

“No he’s not, he feels lighter.” I said as Halapoji rested on his chair.

“Aish, you only say that because you work out more than us.” Eunmi said as she walked back into the living room with a bowl of soup in her hands.

“Haha, ChoonHee’s my strong baby.” Halapoji said as he closed his eyes.

“Eh? Strong baby?” we asked in unison.

“Neh, You’re all my precious little babies. ChoonHee’s my Strong baby, Eunmi’s my Star baby and AeYun is my Dear baby.” He smiled gently.

My heart softened as I smiled at Halapoji warmly. It was really nice to hear that the thought of us as his own grandkids...Eunmi and Me.

“Hahaha, at least I’m not the only baby anymore.” AeYun giggled.

Me and Eunmi laughed alongside her.

“Here Halapoji, let your babies take care of you!” Eunmi grinned.

[End of Flashback]

I bit my bottom lip to stop myself from crying.

I took a deep breath and wiped my tears away.

“You’re right...Let’s go and finish up. I wanna show Halapoji how strong his Strong baby’s gotten.” I grinned.

“Haha, that’s the spirit. Fighting Strong Baby!!” Eunmi cheered.

“FIGHTING!! Hahaha, Kah Ja Star Baby!” I grinned as I started marching back towards the living room.

Eunmi chuckled and followed behind me.

After half an hour more of cleaning up the girl’s and I started getting ready.

It didn’t take very long for all three of us to finish taking showers and getting ready. We had 20 minutes left before we had to leave for the press conference.

Right now we were just relaxing and thinking about what could happen during the conference.

Eunmi twirled around infront of the mirror for the 10th time and looked back at me and AeYun.

“Hey, do you guys think this is ok? I mean we’re gonna be on TV and I wanna look my best.” She said.

“You look really nice Unnie, don’t worry! You always do!” AeYun said.

She smiled and looked towards me.

I looked back at her and said “What?”

“Do I l-”

“Yeah Yeah Yeah, you look nice.” I told her.

“Don’t worry Unnie, you really do.” AeYun reassured her.

“Ohk! Thanks!” She chirped.

We spent the rest of our time talking and practicing what we were going to say and just talking about stuff. We heard a car honking outside so we made locked the house on our way out and got in.

“You girls look very nice. The boys are already getting ready and they will be meeting us there.” Manager Kwon smiled at us.

“Kansa Hamnida~” We replied in unison.

“Omo, you guys look really nice!!” Miyoung squealed.

“Hahaha, Kansa Hamnida! You look nice too!!” Eunmi squeaked.

I rested my chin on my hand and stared out the window.

I was really nervous...the guys career’s are at stake...and it was up to us to help them. I just hope we don’t screw things up.
