BRICKThe sound of the door opening caused Yumin to gather in front of her, dumbfounded. Juri today wore a thin white shirt that glimpsed the hidden skin and short black pants revealing her slender white legs, the highlight hair that was now dyed black and fell to the shoulder. Maybe this hair color for debut date. Seeing Yumin staring at her blankly, Juri cried out in confusion.
- What's wrong with you? My face is dirty! - As she said, Juri wiped her face with her hand.- Didn't ... Um ... Looks like you're comfortable at home. - Yumin replied in a panic but couldn't even look at Juri, her face was already blushing, what was with Yumin (blood in her nose 🤤).When Juri heard that, looking down at herself, her cheeks warmed, Juri suddenly coughed and said teasingly.- Normally, you are a girl, so I don't have to dress up so much. Is it so sexy right? - After saying that, the owner is also embarrassed, let alone Yumin on the other side, swallowing cold sweat.Unknowingly or intentionally, when Yumin was about to say something, one side of Juri's shirt slipped down to reveal the outstanding collar bone, Juri discovered that her heart started to beat continuously but on the outside she showed no expression. She didn't even pull her shirt up and glanced at Yumin. And Yumin, who only had a bit of a wide eye for a moment, then said by normal face with a peaceful voice.- I brought some fruit with me when we finished eating, we can have dessert! - Yumin brought the fruit bag to Juri, Juri didn't continue the dilemma just now and coordinated to accept it and invited Yumin into the house.Although it was just a joke of a friend, but somehow in the situation of both of them fell into this strange atmosphere, this was the thought of both when entering the house. Putting the fruit aside, Juri pulled Yumin's hand to the already-arranged dining table. Seeing that the two were already sitting there, Yumin thought that Juri's parents should be polite.- Hello, my name is Han Yumin and i'm friends with Juri! - When those two saw Yumin, they nodded in satisfaction.- Hi Yumin, I heard from Juri about you, you really are beautiful and this tall looks like a model! - Mrs. Kwon fully praised Yumin, with her experience living in her hometown, Yumin partly guessed Mrs. Kwon's personality is very comfortable and generous like the fish meat sellers at the market near her home.- Omma Models need very high standards, who hires a model with a dull face like her! - Juri stared mockingly at Yumin who looked embarrassed at being complimented.- DULL ... ! - Hearing Juri say that, Yumin pointed at herself.- Hahaha ... You see, she can't do it. - Juri hugged her stomach and laughed and shook her hands incessantly in protest.- You are going to be an idol and you should keep a little bit of image, Juri! - Mr. Kwon's voice said.- Well today, I invite you to come here not only to meet you but also on the occasion of the upcoming Juri debut and hold a little party to congratulate her, I thought the party was just us, didn't expect her to invite you. I've never seen her invite friends over before, you must be special to her! - Mrs. Kwon relaxes for a while and gets a frown from her daughter.- You don't need to talk about that! - Juri is shy because of her mother's temperament.- Hey, look at you, why not? - Mrs. Kwon is still carefree.- (Hmm) Let's just eat the food is about to cool! - Mr. Kwon cleared his throat, this man from a while ago did not talk much, unlike the other two mother and daughter, he looked stern with a calm body, but his words were gentle, maybe he was an intellectual. That what Yumin commented on him.After all, Yumin wanted to help clean up when Mrs. Kwon pushed her to the living room with Mr. Kwon. As for her, she stayed to clean and when she saw the bag of fruit, she asked Juri.- Juri bring the fruit wash and cut to invite friend and your appa!- Nae! - Juri reached for the bag of fruit standing next to Mrs. Kwon and washed it.Yumin's side is not so comfortable, the atmosphere here is quite confused when Yumin is sitting upright, her gaze turned to Juri, who is peeling fruit and Mr. Kwon is leaning on the sofa to watch TV. He saw Yumin sat on one side stiffly, then laughed and said softly.- Feel free to go ahead, don't stress it. Am i so scary? - Mr. Kwon raised an eyebrow.- Oh, no! I just don't know how to talk to you! - Yumin was confused.- Oh! So let me ask you a question! - Mr. Kwon gave Yumin a thoughtful look- Nae! You keep asking.- You like Juri? - Hearing this, Yumin paused for a moment and did not think deeply of the answer.- Nae I like Juri! - After saying that, Yumin felt like something was wrong. (🤔 What do you mean Yuminie?) - Um! I see Juri also likes you very much, my daughter has been so strange for many years. Her mother was right, Juri never used to invite friend to home. It's not that she doesn't want to, but because she's afraid of our home situation, it's like that. You're definitely very influential for her, so Juri dismissed her inferiority and introduced you to us! - Mr. Kwon looks at Yumin exclaiming in this child's heart is not wrong, his daughter knows how to choose friends.Hearing Mr. Kwon's explanation, Yumin remembers the first time she got to know Juri.Flashback- "Don't try to act friendly to me like that! " - Juri face hated glancing at Yumin bringing her food. At that time, Yumin really meant to befriend Juri."You're not afraid of being hated by people like me? " - Juri said, crossing her arms and leaning against the railing, said with an eyebrow raised. Of course, Yumin is not afraid, herself cannot satisfy everyone."I don't get along with them because I'm different, they're just boring one color groups!" - Juri disrespectfully glances down at the group of students resting on the school grounds. Yumin neither agreed nor denied, it is true that Juri is different, so she has a boring general but also too narrow because of that way of thinking.- "There are a lot of people who have their own color, you just haven't met them yet, try to open your heart, if you say like that, I am also a gray color?" - That was Yumin's statement that made Juri reflect on her thoughts.End Flashback- My job is an office worker who also makes a living through the month. I think you seem quite smart and delicate so you can guess what Juri's mother does? - Yumin, hearing Mr. Kwon's mention, quickly confirmed the answer in her mind, softly speaking.- Just now, I also speculated, but after contacting, talking with aunt, I have already confirmed it!- Hahaha! ... Yeah! Juri's mother is a fish-marketer, so no matter how decent she is, she will have a faint smell and blending with her way of talking and behaving is not difficult. Guess is the marketer.- That's reason Juri is quite afraid to let friends meet her, Juri's mother, due to years of care in the market, has a rather gruff and difficult personality, but at home, she is a homemaker,the mother loves to pamper her children. When Juri was a child, one day she went to the market once to meet her mother, she accidentally witnessed a very unhealthy scene, so she a little bit disapproved of this personality of her mother. As you can see, my family is just a normal family to make ends meet, so Juri compared to her peers, entered the life earlier and understood more. So she has become different, someday she announces that she wants to become a singer, at first both of us advised her to think again, but she explained all the philosophical things so we couldn't help but go along with her. Seeing her coming soon, I feel happy, I hope she will benefit in the future! - Yumin sat attentively listening to Mr. Kwon's words, partly understanding Juri's people and situation more deeply.- You're very special! Thank you for being a friend of Juri, please always stand by and support her and help her. This child is not good at speaking at all, although she denies it, but must recognize her personality inherited from her mother! - Mr. Kwon kindly looked at Yumin, even though he met for the first time, the girl in front of him made him trust him to explain his story.- I rest assured you, i will always be by her side to support and become a source of motivation for her. Juri is a good girl who will definitely shine in the future! - Yumin steadfastly looked at Mr. Kwon, secretly promising to make up for Juri's shortages, contributing to a good life for Juri. Said Yumin slightly turned her head to look at the human who finished peeling the fruit and was approaching the fruit plate towards her.- You two look like each other! I thought that the two of you didn't say anything because both of you were weird, did you have to say bad things about me, right? - Juri approached the two to put the fruit plate on the table, said to Mr. Kwon with her eyes glaring at Yumin, then naturally jumped to sit next to Yumin. Yumin on her forehead was sweating, unable to speak. (😅).With a little chatting, Mrs. Kwon contributed to the fun. It's been a long time since the Kwon family has had this fun, because Mr. Kwon works often until the evening and sometime comes back so late and Mrs. Kwon is busy day by day with house and business, so the whole family have rare like that atmosphere. Due to there are busy occasions, Juri also understands so when staying at home is no different at school, not paying attention to anyone, but Juri always implicitly cares about her parents because of they Juri wants to quickly make money for her parents extreme support. (Juri is such a good girl, only regret ... haizz). Time passed very quickly, seeing as it was no longer soon Yumin was about to speak, Juri spoke first.- Yumin wants to go to my room? - Actually, Juri wants to invite Yumin to her room to talk easily but Juri's parents are here, that hard to say, no matter how delicate and intelligent Yumin is, it's unexpected only when only have both Juri revealed calculated that not everyone can see. Right! Because it was Yumin, Juri could not be defensive, let go of her barrier and became friendly and comfortable with Yumin.- Well, I also want to but time is not soon, I promised mom will come back soon, maybe next time? - Yumin to be honest, if it wasn't for Nara, Yumin really wanted to explore Juri's space in search of this friend's hidden traits.- That's right Juri, letting Yumin go is already late! - Mr. Kwon remind Juri but in his heart he also wanted this child to stay longer, he rarely saw his daughter with a childish personality. But it is also impossible to selfishly keep their children and not give them back.- Yes, Yumin go home quickly, it's not safe to be too late, come play next time! - Mrs. Kwon really does not understand the situation while the other two parents are attached to it, she honestly wishes Yumin to come back. (😆 This situation we could not have expected).- Nae! Thank the whole family for not bothering to invite me to eat, next time I have the opportunity to come again. Goodbye! - Yumin politely greeted and walked away step by step, Juri now her face was a bit sagging, she lowered her head and followed Yumin.As soon as Yumin exited the door, she turned back so quickly that the person behind her could not react, stabbing Yumin in the chest (Yumin 1m70 vs Juri 1m62). This pose is very similar to in love movies ~😊, Juri is now aware of what just happened and confusedly push the distance between them. Yumin laughed at the other person's expression, then thought about what Mr. Kwon said, a little troubled.- I can go home by myself, you go inside ... Good night! - She wanted to say more than that, but the words came out of her mouth just that much, Yumin sighed in her heart, perhaps for another occasion.Juri watched Yumin leave farther and farther away, somehow feeling down, "What am I waiting for?" Juri herself cannot answer, at least for now, when she later remembers Juri laughing at her foolishness. Entering the house, Juri's expression returned to normal with no energy different from the image when Yumin was present, she greeted her parents and then went back to her room. Mrs. Kwon looked at Juri who had entered the room, then looked at Mr. Kwon.- Next time, let Juri invite a friend to come play often, she is really the character that helps bring our family closer together!
- ... - Hearing her say Mr. Kwon just sighed and said nothing. Do not see Mrs. Kwon carefree, proud, she knows nothing, she knows all because of her work, she unintentionally caused her daughter to distance herself from her. Seeing Juri by Yumin's side today, she feels like she's lacking in being a mother.
