Weird. Why am I here sitting inside my car waiting for nothing? Or staring at nothing?

Weird, isn't it? I secretly followed Sung Hyo just to make sure she gets home safely, or even know where she lives. She was harassed, but even before I can go out of this car, someone came to the rescue. Who is that superman?

Is this real? This is really, really bizarre. How odd is it to see the last person you're expecting to see? I'd rather see a stranger than to Jong Hyun acting so strange.

Am I really seeing Jong Hyun with his arms around Sung Hyo for comfort? How can--he has autophobia, right? How can he drive alone this far? You know... by himself? There's really something about Sung Hyo that makes Jong Hyun act oddly. But something that makes him better than who he really is, that's something that makes me feel awful at the same time. But isn't it funnier that I followed Sung Hyo? Even helped her wash her hands... I, myself, am acting weird as well.

Then I saw Jong Hyun helping Sung Hyo get into his car. Anyway, that's a relief knowing Sung Hyo's safe now with him to take her home.

I hope they won't see me so I just slowly backed out from the scene with my headlights off. I can't catch any attention right now.

They might think I'm really weird.

Weird, weirdest word so far tonight. *sigh*

In an awkward silence, I had to break it.

I sniffed. "Kamsahamnida." I said in a low voice, still in shock from what happened.

"You don't need to thank me, you need to point to me where you live." He smiled a bit.

Where do I freaking live? And why do I freaking live with a mega famous band secretly? Now I remember... I have a bigger problem now with Jong Hyun than walking alone in the dark. What should I tell him? Think fast, Sung Hyo. "Still quite far.." Nice one, Sung Hyo. At least you're not lying!

"okay, just tell me if we're already getting there."

"Okay. Can I ask you something?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"Being famous, you know... that CN BLUE boy band composed of three members... does anybody know where you live? Or is that a secret?"

He did not answer right away. Five seconds. "Of course, our manager knows where we live." He grinned, as if it's a good joke.

"No, I meant... strangers, like me." I pointed myself.

"Supposedly, no one should know about our place. But technically, you do."

"So... Am I the only 'stranger' who knows where you guys live?"

"You got it right." He nodded.

"Oh... I promise I won't tell anyone." I tried to smile, but it's a cracked up one.

"Why did you ask?"

"Nothing, just asking. So... maybe I should know if I can tell anyone I went to the CN BLUE's house." I just joked, we kind of laughed. But it didn't last a minute, I pointed him to the left.

So, nobody knows where they live? Probably, nobody knows where ANJELL lives too. That means, Jong Hyun won't know I live with ANJELL. I'm just going to say that's a friend's house. Yes! That is!

Mi Nam did not go out of her room for almost the whole day now. He hasn't eaten anything. But I cannot force her to do something she doesn't want. Plus, maybe he's just in need of time.

I just turned on the t.v. and put in the CN Blue mini concerts DVD. I just want to watch them, how they've gone through it all without me. Seriously, I miss them. It's just that I don't know if they can take it to see me ever again.

My little brother back then is now grown up. He's changed so much, and now it feels like he's not my brother anymore. But there's still something deep within our hearts that tells me, we are brothers. Though his words were serious enough to tell me to stop caring about him, I just can't. We are blood-tied. And no one can deny that fact.

When I was in CN Blue, I mostly composed our songs. Though Jong Hyun sometimes tried to compose one, we'll end up editing them mostly like actually the whole song. He's never into writing, but he's so much into playing guitar. We're not that the same, we're two different people of the same passion, we differ in our perspectives in life.

He's too young back then, he never really cared about anyone around him. Yes, he cares for our band, but not enough to lead the band to success. He always relied on me, I always put my trust in him. But he never really used that trust I gave him wisely. I left him not without a reason. I left him for his own sake. He's just too blind to see that.

Those times, I lost all my hopes that CN Blue would come to fame. I was preoccupied by the thought that me and my brother won't have any brighter future. We did not study, we just killed time playing in the streets gaining no fame at all. I did not left a word to him because I know he won't let me go. But I left a word with our parents.

"Ma, just let me leave. This is for our own good, all for us. All for Jong Hyun." I pleaded my mother who's sitting next to father. I was kneeling before them, wiping away the tears from her eyes.

"Yong hwa, you are too young to be doing this." She held my hand. Yes, my real name's Yong Hwa.

"If I accept that call, Ma, Pa... I will earn money, enough money to sustain the both of you, to sustain Jong Hyun's education and give him a good future."

"How about you? Where will you be? What will you do?" She continued sobbing.

"I will try my best to play guitar and sing better. I will be with another band and be famous. And with that, Ma, Pa... I will earn money."

"Stop thinking about us! Think about yourself.. you are too selfish... you are too selfish!"

I stood up, took my bag of clothes I packed and held back my tears. "I'll be going no matter how you'd stop me. I cannot bring down a bright future for my brother, this is going to be for you too. Ma, don't worry. I'll be back as soon as I can. Pa, please take care of her no matter what happens." I bowed and as I turned my back on them, tears started pouring down on my cheeks.

"Don't go, Yong Hwa! I'd die if you go! I'd die if you go... my child!" That's the last words I heard from my mom who loved me the most back then. I wonder how they're doing now that Jong Hyun's in Seoul now.

Monthly, I give my parents the money to let Jong Hyun study. I took the pain of being away from him, I love him so much because he is my only brother. I took the pain of leaving my parents just because I wanted to be useful to them. I took all the pains away from their burdens to I can carry them all by myself. Because they are my family. But most of all, I wanted to take care of my only brother, Jong Hyun, like a precious stone given to me by the heavens above.

But now, it's all gone.

As I was watching a video of Jong Hyun singing High Fly, I heard a slam of a car door. Suddenly, I realized Sung Hyo isn't home yet and it's already late. I paused what I'm watching.

I peeked at the window, and saw... Jong Hyun? With Sung Hyo? Together? How can Sung Hyo bring him here knowing she's living with us? And we're ANJELL? Not that, besides... he is my brother! And nobody knows that at all.

"Kamsahamnida. I owe you so much for today..." I bowed.

"Don't be, that's nothing. I ought to help you, Sung Hyo." He grinned and his cute little dimple appeared in his right cheek.

"I'll go inside now, it's a little late. My friend might already be looking for me. Have a safe trip home, good night!" I waved him goodbye. I stepped back as he went inside his car and turned on the head lights and left.

He is my superman today. How can someone so famous like him be so kind? Anyways, I have to hurry and sneak inside.

WOAH! Shin Woo surprised me. How come he's still up?

I must have surprised Sung Hyo.

"Where have you been?" I asked her in a still voice. She is too secretive.

"Why?"

"You cannot answer a question with a question."

"Well--I was in the coffee shop. Why?"

"Who's that with you?"

"A friend? His name's Jong Hyun, he is somewhat famous, I guess?" She answered hesitantly. I know his name, of course.

"Why on earth did you bring him here? What if he knows ANJELL lives here? Huh?"

"I'm sorry..." He looked down.

"Aah! You are too careless, tsk!"

"I'm sorry, but I promise. He doesn't know anything about this house, or about you!" Well I hope she said it right or else we'll be killed by fans because we're living with a girl.

"I mark your word, and I wish it won't cause any trouble."

"I promise. Anyway, where's Mi Nam?"

"He's upstairs, never went down to eat."

"Oh, I'll go upstairs to check on him. Good night!"

She walked past the t.v. then looked at me. Oh shoot. I did not turn off the t.v. did I?

"You sure you don't know him at all?" She pointed to the tv which is on pause.

"HUH? No, not really. I just saw that somewhere, so I tried it! Why do you care so much?"

"Okay. Just, go. Continue watching. Good night!"

That was close to getting busted, Shin Woo! Be careful next time, e?

[Sung Hyo's POV]

I entered our room. I saw Mi Nam curled on her bed, sobbing.

"Mi Nam?" I walked closer to her bed.

"Sung Hyo?" She cried to me once again. She said she can't take it any longer, and it hurts her. It hurts me seeing her hurt like this... Life brings us down most of the time, we just need to fight till the end.

"Sung Hyo, thank you so much. For always being there, I owe you who am I and how strong I can be starting today. It's a brand new day, kamsahamnida!" Mi Nam greets me with a tight hug the next morning... I tapped her back saying, 'you deserve all the strength and courage you need'. That's why I love being her best friend.

Arigatou, thank you in Japanese. Kansahamnida in Korean... salamat in Filipino. But they all mean one thing, thank you... and I'm glad to hear and say that to everyone. Today is a brand new day, spend it wisely, Sung Hyo!

Time to look for a job again, AJA!
