The Kim's Residence,

Tiffany’s POV

What's better than wake up in your lover's arms? Since we've been sharing a room, Taeyeon hugged me every single night, but in the morning, she would quickly leave the room because she thought I didn't know about her sleeping habits.

This Sunday morning, however, was different. I woke up and saw beautiful eyes staring at me. I stretched my sleepy body before focusing on her again.

"Morning…"

"Morning sleepy head" she smiled. I wish I'll always wake up by her side.

"Since when have you been watching me?"

"I don't know…but long enough to witness your sleep-talk and…your little drooling as well" she teased me.

"Hey! You're lying! I don't drool when I sleep!!!"

"You do!" she laughed.

"I don't!! And what did I say during my sleep?"

"Hmm…it was…something with…Taeyeon! You're an amazing kisser or something, I didn't understand everything" she made fun of me.

"Liar" I tickled her. We tickled each other and I ended up sitting on top of Taeyeon. When we realized our…position, both of us turned shy.

"Huh…okay…I think we should get up…if someone comes in now, it will be very embarrassing" she said, trying to get up but I was still sitting on her, not moving.

"Admit you were lying, if not I won't move" I threatened her.

"Fine fine fine...I admit for the drooling part…"

"But?" I started for her.

"But the amazing kiss was real though"

"Really?"

"Yeah"

I was going to bend over and kiss her when her phone went off. Taengoo probably saw my disappointment since she slightly sat up and kissed me before answering her phone. I smiled and stroke her cheek before getting off the bed.

Before I reached the bathroom, I heard Taeyeon speak on the phone.

"YA! You couldn't wait 5 more minutes before calling me?" Taeng scolded on the phone. I knew it was Yuri…the poor girl, always getting scold.

"What? Come over now? Oh Sica and my cousin are there too? Well, I don't know if Fany wants to do something else…"

"Let's go to Yuri's place Taengoo!" I told Taeng before stepping in the bathroom. "We don't have plan for today"

"Huh okay. See you later and remind me to kick you for bothering me this morning" Taeyeon said before hanging up. "Are you sure you want to spend the day at Yuri's?"

"Yeah it can be fun" I said before closing the door.

Taeyeon and I arrived at Yuri's house around noon. We went in the kitchen first but no one was there…then we heard voices coming from the pool so we went there. All of them were sitting and eating beside the pool.

"Oh Taengoo, Fany!" Yuri shouted out when she saw us.

We greeted everyone before sitting on an empty chair. "Chicken? Why didn't you cook?" Taeng asked.

"Because I'm lazy" Yuri said.

"Because we cherish our lives" Yoona said instead.

"Hey! Who cooked yesterday?" Yuri scolded her sister.

"WE cooked yesterday, don't forget that Seohyun and I helped"

"You came yesterday too Seohyun?" Taengoo asked her cousin.

Yuri's expression changed a little when she heard Taeng's question. "Yes unnie, I came here yesterday and slept over"

Both Yuri and Sica were anticipating Taeng's reaction at the news. But before she could say something weird, I talked to her first. "Taengoo look at me, look at me" I asked her.

She did as I asked. "Breath…breath deeply…it's nothing…nothing happened and you are not going to freak out…ok?" I tried to calm her down before she turned to her "mother" mode.

Everyone was staring at us, especially Sica and Yuri since they both knew what was going on.

"I wanted to ask something but…I won't…it's preferably better not to know…" Taeng said, mostly to Yuri.

"Oh" I suddenly remembered something.

"What?"

"I didn't bring my bikini…"

"Want me to go and take it for you?" Taeng offered.

"I have it at the apartment…" I answered sadly.

"Poor Taengoo" I heard Yuri whispered to herself. Sica looked at her curiously and Yuri acted like she didn't say anything.

The whole day, we spent it beside the pool, chatting and laughing with each other. Even though we didn't do anything special, all of us had a great time. I hope that we could travel again altogether. I should ask Taeng next time.

S1 High School,

Jessica’s POV

Accepting Yuri's invitation this weekend was the best decision ever, I was able to relax and enjoy the nice weather. And of course, I had a great time with Yuri and the kids; I actually really like spending time with them. It was also the occasion to witness the new couple in town; Taeyeon and Fany. I've never had a great impression of Taeyeon, but I must admit she has changed a lot and she makes Fany happy.

On the other hand, there is someone who gave me a bad impression since the first day of class and it hasn't changed even now. Park Gyuri. I really can't stand this girl. Not only is she cocky with a princess syndrome but she also keeps bothering Yuri in school.

They are still sitting next to each other during Business class and I swear this girl finds every single excuse to have physical contact with Yuri.

Today in class, I thought I was going to kill both of them. They were sitting together and for no reason, Gyuri was holding onto Yuri's arm. I had to control myself and not throw the whole desk at them.

During break time, I ignored Yuri because I was still irritated by what I saw earlier.

"Sica Sica!! Why are you ignoring me?" she followed me outside the class.

"I don't want to talk you. Go back and flirt with your new girlfriend" I coldly told her.

"What? What are you talking about?"

"Next time you want to flirt with her, do it when I'm not sitting right behind you!!!" I hit her arm.

"I didn't flirt with anyone!!"

"Oh Yuri! You're so funny. Ha ha ha" I imitated Gyuri.

"I don't like her. Don't forget I didn't chose to work with her"

"Yeah right, like it doesn't make you happy to have an admirer"

"Sica…I really don't care about this girl. I can tell the teacher today that I won't help her in class anymore. Just ask me and I'll do it"

"…"

"I really really don't care about her. Besides, you're way hotter than her" she said, trying to compliment me.

"…" I still acted angry. It's mean but I enjoy seeing Yuri begging for forgiveness…although she is not really guilty.

"You don't believe me?" Yuri looked around us and seemed to think of a solution. "Fine…just, don't forget that you forced me to do that!"

"Huh? What do you…"

"I…KWON YURI…ONLY AND ONLY LIKE JUNG SOOYEON ALSO KNOWN AS JESSICA!!!!!!!!! ONLY HER AND NO ONE ELSE!!!!" she shouted in the hallway. Every student turned and looked at us, even students who were in their class ran out to watch the scene.

I quickly turned red before grabbing Yuri's hand and running away with her. Unfortunately, that crazy girl was still shouting as we were running.

"Can you stop now?" I asked her once we reached the restroom. I don't even know how we ended up there.

"It depends…are you still doubting my feelings?"

"It's hard to" I admitted.

"So how are you going to repay me?"

"For what?"

"For hurting me…I'm extremely sad that you didn't trust me…EXTREMELY SAD!" she pouted.

I knew what she wanted, of course. Something that I learned about Yuri since we started dating is…she is quite easy to please. Only a kiss and she's fine again.

So I kissed her. "Are you fine now?"

"Well…not so much…do it again"

"We have class Yuri"

"OH I'M SO HURT!!!" she started again.

I put my arms around her waist and kissed her deeply…for a minute or two, before pulling away. "It's enough now, we have class and it's really not a nice place to make out Kwon Yuri" I told her.

She smiled like a kid before kissing me again. "Anywhere is fine with me…as long as I'm with you"

I blushed at what she said. "So cheesy" I made fun of her before we walked hand in hand to class.

"Cheesy but you love it!" Yuri commented before kissing my hand.

The thing is, I actually trust Yuri…it's Gyuri that I don't trust at all. There is something with this girl…I can't point it out but she's scary…

Taeyeon's father's office,

Taeyeon's POV

My father summoned me for a meeting after school. He didn't tell me what is was about but I already know it couldn't be anything positive.

Before I walked in his office, I heard some laughter. For some reason, I knew who my father was laughing with before I even opened the door.

Min Sungmin…it seems like I can't get ride of this guy.

I bowed lightly at both of them before taking a seat. My father and Sungmin were still joking about something which annoyed the hell out of me.

"May I know why you call me?" I directly asked my father.

"We were talking about the new project with Sungmin the other day and he insisted to work on it with you…" he started explaining.

"I'm not interested"

"Taeyeon"

"I'm too busy with school; I don't have time to work on this project"

"You can skip school for a week or two if necessary" my father suggested. He should know that will only make me angrier.

"It's fine Mr. Kim, if Taeyeon can't do it…" Sungmin said.

"It's an order Taeyeon, an order from your boss" he told me in his serious tone.

"…" I could only sit there and clenched my teeth.

"You have a month to submit it so please start working as soon as possible" he ordered both of us.

As soon as he finished his sentence, I stood up and walked out of the room. I can't believe he did that, the thing I hate the most is being force to do something I don't want to…after all the effort I put into this company, I can't believe he doesn't even respect my decision.

Like I wasn't unlucky enough, Sungmin caught me before I got to the car.

"Taeyeon waited" he called out. "I'm sorry for what happened"

"Are you kidding me? You knew there was no way I would want to work with you, sucking up to my dad was a brilliant idea though. Congratulation for pissing me off" I told him before walking to my car.

"How are we going to do for this project? Want me to come to your apartment?" he asked…this question bothered me though.

"What are you trying to do? Is it one of your stupid plans? To get close to Fany?" I started to get angry. "Stay away from her. I'll work on the project and send you what I did…and you can complete it on your own."

"That's not really responsible"

"If you don't like it, go and report it to my boss" I told him before getting in my car and driving off.

I knew Sungmin wouldn't drop the matter so easily, he likes Fany too much. Even though Fany told me before that she doesn't like him, I can't help but feel threatened. I'm still trying to understand how a girl like Tiffany was attracted to me so…it seems like I can lose her to someone like him…

Outside in Seoul,

Yuri's POV

After dropping Jessica at her home, I stopped at an ice cream shop to buy some for Yoona. When I came out of the shop, I bumped into Donghae, alone.

"Oh Kwon Yuri, what a nice surprise. I'm happy to see you"

"…" I ignored him and walked away.

"Why so rude Yuri? Shouldn't you feel grateful?" he continued.

I stopped at his stupid comment. "You should feel grateful that I'm not beating the hell out of you already" I told him.

"Oh my…so violent. I don't understand what Jessica sees in you…I heard some rumors; it seems you two are dating right now. How is it going?"

"None of your business"

"Well…I dated her before so you know…if you need some advice…" he grinned.

"…" I sighed and was about to leave again when he said something that caught my attention.

"Don't forget she accepted to marry me" I nearly forgot about this little…detail. I remember him talking about her being his fiancée at the charity dinner but I haven't paid attention to it since then.

I know that Fany has warned me before, to not try and search into Sica's past but this is so…tempting.

I stood there and waited for him to continue. "I see that you're interested. I suppose Jessica has never talked about it?"

"Just say what you are dying to say Donghae, don't play with me" I warned him again.

"This girl was crazy in love with me so much that she accepted to marry me so just be careful. I don't want you to invest too much into this relationship and have your little heart break into million pieces"

"Are you telling me that she still likes you? Please, don't make me laugh"

"You don't believe me? Maybe you should try and ask her directly, see if she answers or avoids your question"

"…why did you propose to her?" I ignored what he said and asked him the only thing that I wanted to know.

"It was funny" he smirked. "We wanted to know how naïve she was…how far she would go for love, you know"

"How could you play with her feelings?"

"I didn't know she would be so serious about me, not my fault if the girl is stupid enough to believe in what I said"

I felt my blood boiling up and did my best to control myself. "You better stay away from her…"

He smirked again. "I'm not joking Donghae…you can't even imagine how much I can hurt you. Push me and I'll make you regret being such a *******" I turned around and started walking away when he spoke up again.

"Oh I forgot to tell you how…amazing it was to see her kneeling and begging me to not leave her. It was quite a scene…then I had to explain to her that it was only a joke, a simple bet that I did with my friends. The poor girl was crying like a baby in front of the whole school…such a loser" he finished.

It didn't take me much to run to him and punched him. I don't think I've ever be this angry before. The way he talked about her, what he said about her…I couldn't take it anymore.

Donghae fell on the ground and held his jaw in pain…before smirking again. I realized that by losing control, I reacted exactly the way he wanted.

Donghae stood up, still smiling and took a few steps toward me. "Watch out Kwon Yuri…I might want to take her back" he said before leaving.

I stood there, not realizing the people that were looking at me from afar…shocked of the scene they have just witnessed. I don't know what hurt me the most…what he said about Jessica…or the fact that she was once in love with this guy.

Kim's Residence,

Tiffany’s POV

Taeyeon's parents are staying longer than planned so we're staying at the residence for the time being. I think Taeng is starting to appreciate the family atmosphere as well since she didn't really complain when I told her I wanted to stay until her parents leave.

Taeng dropped me at home after school before leaving for the office. She told me she has some meeting with her father today. So I ended up at home with Auntie.

I was doing my homework in the kitchen when Auntie came in. "Are you doing your homework?" she asked while sitting at the table.

"I have to if not Taeyeon will scold me again" I told her. It's not because we're dating that she goes easy on me now, she is still as strict as before.

"Did I tell you how happy I am that you're with Taeyeon? I'll never be grateful enough for what you did to her" she said sincerely.

"I…I didn't do anything special…"

"Not only is she living here again but she is happy to be here…I've never seen her so happy before. And that's thanks to you"

"She made me happy as well" I smiled while thinking about our relationship. "Of course, it wasn't this perfect from the start" I laughed.

"I know Taeyeon is not easy to live with, especially since you have such a cheerful personality"

"Actually she is not calm; she is crazier than you think"

"I'd love to see this side of her…"

"Can…can I ask you something personal?" I dared to ask her. "About Taeyeon"

Auntie smiled gently and nodded. "Why…why is Taeyeon so distant with you and uncle?"

"That's our fault" she smiled sadly. "The company was still growing when she was born and we didn't pay enough attention to her. Both of us only thought about working and expanding this empire…to the point of forgetting about this family. Once I stopped working and stayed at home, it was already too late…Taeyeon was already a big girl"

"Then she moved out?"

"We opened a branch of the company in New York and Taeyeon didn't want to go with us…we could have force her to come but…even as parents, we didn't have the right to oblige her. Taeyeon bought the apartment and moved out a few days before we left for New York."

"I don't think it's too late to work on this relationship. I'm sure Taeyeon wants to get closer to you as well, she just doesn't know how to do it"

"I'm already happy seeing her everyday and even though she doesn't talk to me, I won't ask for more. And…seeing you two being happy together is enough"

I blushed a little at her comment. We talked some more before I went back to my homework.

I was still doing my homework when I heard the front door closed very loudly. Then I heard Taeyeon calling me.

"I'm in the kitchen Taengoo!!!" I shouted.

Right away, Taeyeon burst into the kitchen. I immediately noticed something was wrong with her.

"Tiffany, we're going home" she told me angrily.

"What?"

"Are you coming with me or not?" she asked still angry.

"What's going on Taeyeon?"

"I'm leaving now so hurry up" she said before leaving the kitchen.

Auntie and I looked at each other confused. I dropped my homework and ran after her. Taeyeon was in her room packing her clothes when I came in. She was extremely angry; it's been a while since I saw her like that.

I walked slowly to her and hugged her from behind. "What's going on? Tell me"

Taeng seemed to calm down at my embrace. "I just want to go home…" she said quietly.

"Something happened at the meeting?"

"…"

"You know you can tell me, I'll always support you" I reassured her.

"He forced me to work with Sungmin on this project"

"Is it that hard for you to work with him?"

"I don't like him…"

"He's not that bad you know" I said before thinking twice. I immediately regretted it though.

Taeyeon got even angrier. "Can you stop defending him? Do you think he's that great?" she raised her voice.

"That's not what I meant Taeyeon..."

"He is planning something…I can feel it."

"Why can't you just forget about him? Just work with him until it's done."

"I…I…every time I look at him, it reminds me how much he likes you…and I hate that" she admitted.

It wasn't the right moment but…I found it extremely sweet. I put my arms around her neck and hugged her. "Babo, who cares about how he feels? Shouldn't you only think about my feelings?"

"You used to be really close to him"

"We are only friends, nothing more. Don't you trust me?"

"I do…it's just…"

"I like you, only you! I can even sing the song if you want" I joked.

"I don't want to turn deaf but thanks" Taeyeon finally smiled.

I playfully strangled her before pulling her in for a kiss. "So? Everything is fine? We can stay here?"

"For now…"

"Great…so please clean this mess" I said pointing at the clothes on her bed.

I put a light kiss on her cheek before walking away. "Where are you going?" she asked me.

"Finish my homework"

"WHAT? It's not done yet?" she acted shocked

I stuck out my tongue at her before leaving the room. I've never thought Sungmin was such a trouble for Taeng. I should be careful whenever his name is mentioned; I don't want to argue with Taeng over such trivial thing.

I went down in the kitchen to reassure auntie that Taeyeon was fine. I explained the situation to her and she didn't seem to approve her husband's decision. I'm sure Taeng's relationship with her mother will only gets better with time, but with her father…it only seems to get worse.
