Chapter 1
Mi Nyu could hardly sit still now. Just another 24 hours and she'd be able to see him again, her brightest star, Hwang Tae Kyung.
Finally, she was going to be able to see him again. She had been working as a volunteer in Africa for 2 years with an acquaintance of hers, Sister Rachel. They went to the rural parts of Africa to teach the children there and because of that, she had almost lost all contact with everyone back in South Korea. Lucky for her, though, was that they could still keep in contact with letters.
The only sad thing was that letters took months to arrive and this was often annoying, as all she could do was to wait everyday. Letters often took at least 1 month to be delivered. The letters that she anticipated very much for were letters from Tae Kyung, but knowing Tae Kyung's character, it was not surprising that he hardly ever wrote to her.
It was alright though, because she had long realized that he wouldn't write to her. It was alright now, anyway. She was going to be back by his side soon. She smiled to herself.
"Why are you so happy, Gemma?" asked Sister Rachel, walking into Mi Nyu's room, "Are you very excited to be returning back to Korea?"
Mi Nyu looked up and smiled, unable to contain her happiness. "Yes, I am happy to be able to go back to Korea, although I will be sure to miss you, Sister."
"I will miss you too, Gemma. I'm glad that you're happy to go back and meet your star," replied the Sister, chuckling, "You're always talking about him. Now you will be able to see him again."
Mi Nyu deliberately looked down and pretended to be busy packing her clothes into her luggage. She was embarrassed. What the Sister said was true, she was always talking about Tae Kyung and the other A.N. Jell members, sometimes even when she wasn't intending to, she would suddenly mention them and the good times she had with them.
Noticing her embarrassment, the Sister decided to let her off and walked out of the room, chuckling to herself.
Mi Nyu waited until she couldn't hear the Sister's footsteps in the hallway anymore before she dared to look up from her luggage, still blushing furiously.
"We are preparing for touch down now, please turn off all your electronic devices and put on your seatbelts. For all passengers who are not in your seats, please return to your seats now." The pilot's voice could be heard throughout the aircraft, "Any passengers feeling unwell, please signal for the air stewards, who will be there to assist you. Thank you for taking Korean Airlines."
Mi Nyu could hardly stay in her seat now. She was going to meet Tae Kyung and the others soon! She could hardly wait anymore. Two years had past since she'd last seen them with her own eyes. They occasionally sent photographs, but that was hardly enough to make her feel better. She took out a photograph from her pocket. It was a picture of the 4 A.N. Jell members, courtesy of Jeremy, in case you forgot how we look like, he wrote. Mi Nyu smiled while staring at the photo. Like I would, she thought, still smiling at the photo.The four A.N. Jell members, Tae Kyung, Shin Woo, Jeremy and Mi Nam stood in the arrival hall with Manager Ma. They were all waiting anxiously, eager to see Mi Nyu again.
"Hyung, do you think she will be able to recognize us?" asked Jeremy, turning to look at Shin Woo.
"Of course she will. How can she forget how we look like?" reassured Shin Woo, smiling lightly.
"She should be coming out any time now," said Manager Ma, looking at his watch. He snuck a glance at Tae Kyung, wanting to see his expression. But all there was to see was Tae Kyung's usual stony and expression-less face with a twinge of annoyance. What was he getting annoyed for today? Isn't his girlfriend coming back today? Why's he still frowning?
Before he could answer his own questions, the gateway opened and out walked all the passengers, including Mi Nyu. But now, how did Mi Nyu look like after 2 years? Did she grow her long hair back? She hardly sent any photos, so none of them knew how she looked like now. They looked around, anxious to spot her amongst the crowd.
"Oppa!" shouted Mi Nyu, walking towards the group, "I'm back!" She stopped in front of them and smiled, wondering what to say.
Everyone stared at Mi Nyu. She didn't look much different from 2 years ago. She still looked like Mi Nam, with her short hair and their similar faces. She looked slightly skinner, maybe, and her dressing was different, but it was still easy to recognize her. Go Mi Nyu was really back.
"Go Mi Nyu, welcome back!" Jeremy was the first to break the silence, reaching out to grab Mi Nyu for a hug excitedly. Mi Nyu hugged back happily, so glad to be back that she even started tearing.
"Hey, that's not very fair! As her brother, she should have greeted me first!" argued Mi Nam, pulling Mi Nyu and Jeremy apart. Mi Nyu laughed and wiped away the tears, "Oppa, I'm back!"
Everyone took turns to hug Mi Nyu except Tae Kyung. He just stood there with his usual uninterested expression. "Hyung-nim, I'm back!" announced Mi Nyu to Tae Kyung, but Tae Kyung's expression still did not change. Instead, he just stared at Mi Nyu, twitching his eyebrow.
Oh well, nothing's changed. Hyung-nim's still the same, ignoring me as always… thought Mi Nyu, trying hard to hide her disheartened expression.
"Alright, let's go now. We've got a photo shoot at 4pm, so we should hurry," said Manager Ma, taking out the A.N. Jell Van's car keys," Come on, let's go, we can talk on the way back!"
"Okay…!" said, Mi Nyu, turning back to take her luggage, only to find that Shin Woo, Mi Nam and Jeremy had already carried it for her. "It's okay, Go Mi Nyu! Just leave these to us!" exclaimed Jeremy, "Come on!"Finally, they reached the dorms. It was called a dorm, but technically, it was a big and fancy house where the four A.N. Jell members resided in.
Mi Nyu felt worn out by the flight and her adrenaline level was dropping, making her feel so tired that she slept throughout the whole journey to the dorms, leaving her with no chance to ask where she was going to be staying at.
Mi Nyu entered the house with Manager Ma and Jeremy, leaving the luggage to the other three.
Rubbing her eyes, Mi Nyu still felt sleepy. She followed Jeremy and Manager Ma into the house, forcing her eyes to stay open. "Manager... Where am I going to be staying at now? Oppa said that he'd be arranging it for me…" started Mi Nyu, feeling confused.
"Go Mi Nyu, come on up! I'll show you!" shouted Jeremy from the second floor. He was already at the second floor, beckoning Mi Nyu to follow him. Mi Nyu nodded and started climbing up the stairs and following Jeremy.
Jeremy led her to a closed door. On the door was a small little frame with the words "Go Mi Nyu's Room". Mi Nyu looked at the frame, transfixed. It was a simple design and looked a little out of shape, but it was heart-warming to see it. "Guess who did that, Go Mi Nyu!" asked Jeremy, eagerly waiting for her reply.
Mi Nyu stared at the frame and thought for a while before replying, "Jeremy?" She was confident of her answer. There was no way Tae Kyung would do such a thing and Shin Woo was too meticulous to have made such a frame. Her Oppa, Mi Nam, couldn't have made it either because he was so bad at doing handicraft, such that even making such a simple-looking frame was difficult for him, leaving the only possible person left – Jeremy.
"Go Mi Nyu, how did you know? You're so cute!" exclaimed Jeremy, reaching out to hug Mi Nyu again. This time, he was stopped by Mi Nam, who came up the stairs with Mi Nyu's luggage. He passed the luggage to Jeremy, leaving him with no hands to hug his sister.
"Open the door and look inside it," prompted Mi Nam, smiling at his sister. Mi Nyu nodded and opened the door, sneaking a peek inside.
Mi Nyu's eyes widened when she saw the interior of the room. The room was painted cream-colored and it was decorated with many cute toys and the bed was orange in color. It was beautiful. She walked into it and asked, "Is this really my room?"
Nodding, Mi Nam replied, "Yup! This is your room! We cleared out and combined the 2 storerooms of fan-gifts and renovated this room for you! Do you like it?"
"Yes! I do! Thank you, Oppa, Jeremy!" exclaimed Mi Nyu, picking up a rabbit toy from the ground and hugging it.
Just then, Manager Ma, Tae Kyung and Shin Woo entered the room. "Come on, guys, we need to leave now. Let's just leave Mi Nyu to pack!" announced Manager Ma, pulling a reluctant Jeremy out of the room.
"We're going now! We'll have a welcome party when we get back, okay!" shouted Jeremy as they all left the house.
Mi Nyu smiled and dragged her luggage into the room. Opening the first luggage, the first thing she spotted was the star necklace, given to her by Tae Kyung two years ago before she left for Africa, also the day where he had confessed his feelings to her during A.N. Jell's concert.
She took it out of the box that she kept it in and admired it. She did not dare to wear it as she didn't want to dirty it. It was too precious to her.
"Why are you so cold towards me, Hyung-nim?" mumbled Mi Nyu, looking at the necklace. "Don't you love me anymore? Or do you have some other person that you like now?" Tears started welling up in Mi Nyu's eyes. "I shall have to find a time to get an answer from him," she concluded, hugging the necklace.
Meanwhile, inside the A.N. Jell Van, Jeremy and Mi Nam were excitedly discussing about the welcome party for Mi Nyu later.
"Oh! Let's buy a cake! I'm sure Mi Nyu will like it!" suggested Jeremy excitedly, his eyes gleaming.
"Oh! And we could buy ice cream! And -,"continued Mi Nam before he got interrupted by a disgruntled Tae Kyung, "Stop it with the noise! It's so annoying!" He scoffed, turning back from his seat to glare at Mi Nam and Jeremy.
Immediately there was silence in the van. Everyone was afraid of Tae Kyung's glares and they knew that it meant business.
Tae Kyung looked out the window and glared. What was that? That Go Mi Nyu, what did she think she was doing? Firstly, she did not greet him first when she met up with them. Secondly, she greeted him as "Hyung-nim"! And thirdly, why wasn't she wearing the necklace that he had given her? He had noticed that it was missing from her neck when she was asleep on the way back to the dorm. Just what was she thinking! Just her first day back and she was making him all nervous and irritated already! Tae Kyung twitched his mouth. What was he going to do now?
"What's with Hyung…? He's in an exceptionally bad mood today…" whispered Jeremy to Mi Nam, feeling the dark aura emanating from Tae Kyung. Mi Nam just shrugged.
Later that evening, the four of them returned home, carrying bags of groceries which the Coordi Noona had helped them to buy. "We're back!" Jeremy announced loudly as they stepped into the house. However, there was no reply. "Hmm… why isn't there a reply?"
"Maybe she's asleep. She must have been worn out by the flight," replied Shin Woo, calm and composed as usual. "Let's go and prepare all the food before we wake her up."
"Good idea!" exclaimed Jeremy, carrying the bags up to the roof top with Mi Nam.
Watching Mi Nam, Jeremy and Shin Woo busying themselves with the preparation, Tae Kyung merely twitched his mouth and went to his room, not bothering to help them.
Back in his room, Tae Kyung sat down at his table and tried to think of ideas for their new song. However, he could hardly concentrate as his mind was filled with thoughts of Min Nyu and her actions.
"Aish!" shouted Tae Kyung, annoyed at himself. He scrawled the words "Go Mi Nyu" all over his music sheet and tried to think of reasons why she was behaving like this.
"Maybe she's feeling embarrassed?" He said, twitching his mouth, turning to look at the Pig-Rabbit toy that was sitting on the couch behind him, "Ya! Pig-Rabbit! Tell me what you're thinking, you stupid Pig-Rabbit!"
The toy merely stared back at him from its position on the couch. The Pig-Rabbit was a representation of Mi Nyu and Tae Kyung was the one who gave that nickname to her. Even the toy was made by Tae Kyung himself. It was a rabbit toy with a pig nose. It was his emotional support when he was down and he liked to talk to it even though it did not and would not reply to him.
"Pig-Rabbit? Should I just go and ask you what your problem is?" He continued talking to the rabbit. "Yes I should, right?" Nodding his head in agreement at his own answer, he got out of his chair and decided to go and confront Mi Nyu…
That's all for the first chapter! Is it too short or too long? This is my first attempt at writing a Fan-Fic, so do comment and tell me how I can Improve! :)
