BORAM'S POV

It's already getting dark and I'm still wandering here on the streets.

I wasn't lost.

I wasn't homeless either.

I just want to walk and enjoy the silence in this place before I go home.

It's not that it's noisy at home.

It's just that the kind of silence there is different.

Why I say it's different?

...you'll know.

I'm just walking here on the sidewalk.

Just me and my drawing book for few more minutes.

Until suddenly I heard someone running from behind.

**sigh**

I guess the silence already ends.

"Hey kid. You're lost again?" She ask when she catch up to me.

If you think that I know this girl well,...

I don't.

It's just that one day when I was walking here same time as today like I always do, this girl came to me.

And she actually thinks that I'm a lost kid.

Heol.

I never talk to her since that day but here she is pretending that we were close friends.

We don't even know each other's name.

Well, I do remember that she introduces herself before but I wasn't actually paying attention so I don't know her name and since I never talk to her, she doesn't know mine too.

"You love to walk here during this time. Aren't your parents worried? Why do they let you wander in here alone? It's not good for a kid like you." She said while she's annoyingly chewing her gum.

My cousin Eunjung would surely run away from this girl.

Do you wanna know why?

You'll know why when you meet her.

Now back to this girl.

Who the hell is she calling a kid?

I wonder if she really thinks that I'm a kid or she's just teasing me for no reason.

I decided to leave her and headed to my car and leave her like I always do.

.......

"Good evening Miss Boram dinner is ready" Ahjumma greeted me when I arrive at home.

"Mom and Dad?" I ask.

"They're not yet home Miss" She said.

What do you expect Jeon Boram?

"Pack the foods and bring it to your family Ahjumma. I'm not hungry." I said and headed straight to my room.

When Ahjumma left to go home the surrounding became even quieter.

This huge house is filled with silence.

A deafening lonely silence.

I do love silence but at the same time I hate it too.

It's hard to explain it but that's just how I feel it.

I just get my sketchpad and start drawing.

I keep drawing till I realize what I just drawn..

"Why you always interfere when I'm on the midst of getting drowned in silence?" I said to the girl that I just unknowingly drawn.

Why am I even drawing her?

Heol.

I better sleep.

THE NEXT DAY

EUNJUNG'S POV

I arrive early at school as usual.

"Morning..." Qri greeted me.

She is my bestfriend and my cousin.

"Morning" I just replied.

"Did you go in trouble or something?" She ask.

"Nope. I just get damn mad at my nanny and get her fired. She always mess up and you know how I hate mess. If I have to witness everyday I'm going to get sick!" I irritably said.

"Don't exaggerate things Eunjung. No one gets sick because your dirty clothes mixed up with the clean ones." Qri said and laugh at me.

"I'm just being neat." I said and rolled my eyes on her.

"OVERLY neat....You're a hypochondriac" She said.

"No I'm not. You're the one who's exaggerating things" I said.

"Uh-huh and you're the one who's in denial Ms. Student Council President" She said.

"Stop it Qri. I just hate mess. I hate dirt. All of that could make you sick and sickness leads to death don't you know that?" I said and she just laughs at me.

**sighed**

"Here..Put this on my seat. I need to go to the student council office" I said and give her my bag.

"Sure." She said and take my bag.

"And Qri..." I stop her when she was about to get inside.

"I know Eunjung. I'll wipe your chair till it shines. I'll even use disinfectant and put your chair in quarantine to make sure it's dirt free." She said and winks at me.

Ah jinja!

My cousins are weird.

"Just wipe my chair. No need for your crazy ideas" I said and just laugh at me.

I headed to the office.

I'm the President of the Student Council and I own this school.

My Dad gave this school to me.

I have two cousins and those two were the only people I hang out with in this school.

Jeon Boram and Lee Jihyun who is also known as Qri.

Our mothers were sisters.

Boram is a silent type and she likes to draw while Qri loves to teasing people like what she do to me.

Tsk.

**phone rings**

"Hello Dad" I answered the phone.

"Your nanny came to me begging for another chance but it's still up to you Sweetie" He said.

I get tissue and wipe my chair before I sit there.

My Dad is just too kind and easily forgives people.

"No Dad. I won't accept her anymore and besides I'm old enough to take care of myself. I don't need a nanny" I said.

"But Sweetie you n-"

"Dad I can take care of myself. Please" I said.

"Alright if that's what you want." He said.

"Thanks Dad" I said.

"Anything for my princess" He said and we hang up.

I just check some files there before I headed back to our classroom.

"Goodmorning Pres." Park Hyomin greeted me with her beautiful smile.

Though I'd like to greet her back, I don't have the courage to do so.

So I just pretend that I didn't hear her and go to my seat.

"The cheerleader was really into you" Qri said to me.

I'm sure she did wipe my chair so I don't have to do it.

"No, she's not. She's just friendly. Look?" I said as I watch Hyomin greet everyone.

"Oh seems like all the self-confidence escaped to your body when it comes to Park Hyomin" She said teasing me.

Tss.

I hate it when she's right.

"No, it's not like that. I'm not into her. I don't want to be in a relationship coz being in a relationship means you need to do intimate stuffs. That's includes kissing and things that would make me throw up" I said.

I'm having goosebumps by just imagining it.

"Tsk. That is the saddest story I've ever heard Eunjung. You'd grow old alone if you're like that and you know what? You're really in denial. You like her and you can't even admit it to yourself and love is not about kissing and intimate stuffs. You hate dirt yet your mind is running dirty. And let me remind you that you had a boyfriend before." She said and laugh at me.

"Shut up!" I irritably said to her.

This woman really knows how to tease me.

"Where is Boram?" I ask wanting to change the topic.

I don't wanna talk about my ex-boyfriend.

Not that topic!

"Here"

Qri and I almost jump on our seats when someone suddenly speaks from behind.

"Jinja Jeon Boram!" Qri yelled and hit her head.

Tsk.

This woman suddenly appears everywhere without you knowing it.

When did she get there?

"I could paint your funny faces now you know" She said to me and Qri.

Boram doesn't like talking to stranger...or sometimes even to people that she know but she's not close to.

Let's just say she's not that friendly.

If Qri is someone who loves teasing Boram is someone who values silence a lot.

"Why you're looking for me?" She ask while drawing on her notebook.

"Nothing. I just didn't see you anywhere earlier so I ask." I said.

"Wow she's pretty Rambo. Who is she?" Qri ask and tried to snatch the notebook from Boram but Boram was fast enough to keep it out of Qri's reach.

"Is that your girlfriend?" I ask.

"Nope. I'm single" She said nonchalantly.

"Our Boramie is in love!" Qri said and start teasing her.

I wish the class starts now so this two would shut up...I mean Qri would shut up.

"I'm not. I'm just drawing random faces" She said and this time I'm the one who snatch the notebook away from her.

"I believe her Ri. This girl is too good to be real. She looks like a goddess" I said.

I never appreciate Boram's drawing this much before.

But this one is different.

I love this girl's eyes.

"She's really pretty" I said and some reason it made me smile.

"Give me that. How could you fantasize my drawing?" Boram said and that made me hit her head with her notebook.

"I'm just complimenting your drawing!" I said.

Tsk.

JIYEON'S POV

"I'll just go with you oppa" I said to Hyojoon oppa.

He's my brother and he's flying to US now.

"You know that I would bring you me if I could but my Dad won't agree." He said.

**sigh**

We're siblings.

Half siblings.

Same Mom but different Dads.

Our Mom died in an accident years ago. She got hit by a car while selling on the sidewalk.

After that my oppa and I struggles for our daily living.

Now he found his Dad and he's going to be with him.

While me?

I'll be on the same situation as him.

It's just that I don't need to take a plane just to be with my Dad.

"Don't worry. I'll always call you and I'll find ways to bring you there" He said and hug me.

"Yeah oppa. Don't worry about me. I guess I could handle leaving with Dad and his family for a while" I said

Dad have two daughters and their Mom is a witch.

They hate me but I'm not Cinderella and this is not that kind of story so I hate them too.

"Now that's more like you" He said and pats my head then continue packing his things.

"Jiyeon-ah..." He said and look at me.

"Wae?" I curiously ask

"Don't give them too much trouble alright?" He said and he looks worried.

I can't help not to laugh at him.

"That's the thing I can't promise oppa. Trouble is my only friend and I would never let anyone look down on me" I said.

"Yeah I know and I'm not saying that you should let them...I'm just worried that you'll get yourself into trouble and I'm not hear for you. I promised Mom to take care of you" He said.

He sounds like a father than a brother to me.

"Oppa. You did take care of me. I know Mom knows that and didn't I just told you that trouble is my bestfriend?...He would never get me in trouble" I said.

"What?" He ask in confusion and that made me realize what I just said

"That doesn't make sense right?" I ask and he shook his head.

"Let's just forget about that then" I said

"Silly!" He said and ruffled my hair.

"Yah! Oppa!" I yelled at him for ruining my hair and he just laugh at me.

I'd probably miss him.

"Jirong" He said again and that's another sign of another reminder.

"What again oppa? Stop worrying too much about me ok?" I said.

"Don't ever talk to that man again alright?...Coz if he hurts you again I'll immediately fly back here and show him my karate." He said and this time I'm the one who laughs at him.

"I appreciate that but oppa you don't know karate" I said.

Oppa is not even a fighter.

He's more of a cool nerdy oppa.

"I'm a fast learner. I could easily learn that. You'll see" He said.

"Ok oppa. I'll pack my things too" I said to him and go to my room.

**sigh**

What kind of life is waiting for me in there?

HYOMIN'S POV

It's dismissal now.

"Hyomin-ah palli. We need to go home now." Soyeon unnie said to me.

"Unnie, the cheerleading squad have practice today. I can't skip" I said.

"Well me too. The band have practice today but I need to skip and so do you. Dad is waiting for us at home now" She said.

Dad?

Dad is home now?

"Arasso. C'mon" I said and we headed to our car.

Unnie is the school band lead vocalist while I'm on cheerleading.

We're supposed to have practice but since Dad want us home we need to be home or else we're dead.

"Are we in trouble unnie? Why does Dad wants us to come home immediately?" I ask

"I don't know but I don't think that we're in trouble Hyo. We've done nothing wrong" She said.

Right.

I guess it's just something important.

We arrive home and found Mom in there.

"To dining room. Let's wait for your Dad" Mom said and she seems not to be in a good mood.

Unnie and I just look at each other.

What's going on?

Unnie and I just follow Mom in the dining room.

"Why there's an extra plate on the table? Do we have a visitor?" Unnie ask.

"Just wait for your Dad and let him explain things to you" Mom said.

I'm really curious what's wrong.

"Glad to see you're all here" We heard Dad's voice so unnie and I turn around to see him.....

With the girl.

"Dad why is she here?" I ask. Fingers crossed.

Why does she have her bags with her?!

"Your sister will be living here with us...C'mon Jiyeon have a sit" Dad said and invited her to the table.

This is unbelievable!

"Annyeong haseyo Mrs. Park. Annyeong Injung unnie. Sunyoung unnie" She greeted us.

"It's Soyeon / It's Hyomin" Soyeon unnie and I said at the same time.

Tsk.

"Oh ok....Injung unnie. Sunyoung unnie" She said and give us a mocking smile.

I hate this girl!

"And by the way Hyomin sweetheart. You'll be sharing your room with Jiyeon. Her room is not yet prepared. Just for tonight" Dad said.

"What?!" I ask in shock.

This is unacceptable.

I'm not sharing a room with that woman!!

"I think Sunyoung unnie doesn't like the idea Dad" Jiyeon said pretending to be an angel when we all know she's not!

"Hyomin is there a problem?" Dad ask me.

"The-"

"Nothing. It's fine with Hyomin. Right Hyo?" Unnie said to me.

Damn!

How could she sell me like this just to spare herself?!

"Yeah Dad it's ok" I said while throwing a sharp glare on Jiyeon.

She just smirked at me.

How dare she?!

~TBC~

So what do you think this fic will be?
