CHAPTER 5

ALLORA'S P.O.V

5.30AM

I couldn't sleep at all. I tossed and turned the whole night. The situation today left me in a dilemma.

"Urgh... what have I done? Why did I faint in someone else's house? And made everyone about me. To make matter worse, I had troubled Ara unnie to take care of me.

After thinking through, I have decided to do something for them to pay back for their kindness. But what should I do?

Hmmm... Should I just say 'Thank you'? No. That is too simple. They are way too nice for just a thank you. How about I cook them breakfast?

A brilliant idea, right? What should I make? I think my cooking skill is above average for a city girl since I used to cook for my grandmother before I moved into my relative's house. So, I am pretty confident with it. Ok it's decided. Today, I am going to make them breakfast.

I quietly tiptoed out of my room while making sure that all the members are still asleep. I walked really slow and soundless to the kitchen as I don't want to wake any of them. This is supposed to be a surprise and a surprise has to be a secret.

I quietly search the fridge for all the ingredients that I needed and luckily everything is in there. I quickly take everything out and start cutting the ingredients. As I was concentrating on cutting the onion, someone approached me.

"Are you making breakfast?"

I looked over my shoulder; and it was Ryeowook oppa. I was shocked. I thought that since its only 6.15am, nobody would or should be awake but here is Ryewook oppa in front of me looking so perfect while I'm still having my bed hair. How can someone be awake and looked so fresh?

Umm... yeah." I stuttered. Man! This is the bad. I thought this would be a surprise. And here I am... BUSTED!

"Want me to help you?" Ryeowook oppa said as he put on an apron. Even before I could reply, he took a pan and turn on the stove. Out of nowhere, he started cooking while taking all the ingredients I had cut. I tried to stop him but the word to say 'No' or 'it's okay' just never come out. Instead of helping me, I am the one who felt like helping him. Suddenly a small giggle came out from me.

Ryeowook oppa heard it and look at me. "Why are you laughing?"

I closed my mouth before my laugh gets louder. "You love cooking huh?"

"Oh!" He stopped. I think he just realized what I meant. "No. No. It just that..."

"It's okay. I am just wondering."

"I am really sorry! I did it unconsciously. I should have asked you right? You must be cooking for us. But... I..." Ryeowook oppa gave me the spatula to continue cooking instead of him.

"It's okay. I thought of making something as a thanks for worrying and sorry at the same time." I took a deep breath before I turned off the stove and put the food on a plate.

"It's okay. Thank you is enough for us. We were really worried about you. I mean...to be honest, we left you alone yesterday, and we thought nothing would happen to you but then we received a call from Ara noona that you fainted. Besides you are Ara noona's friend, meaning our friend too." Ryewook oppa said as he helps me to set the cutleries onto the table.

I smiled at his comment. I'm their friend. Me.

7AM

After cooking and setting up everything, I left the kitchen. I went to shower and took a little nap before starting another day with those hot guys. But first I have to make sure my breathe doesn't smell. Then wear a bit perfume and ready to go.

As I was heading to the living room. I heard noises and voices coming from there. 8 am and they are all so lively already? Where did they get the energy from?

"Here is our chef for today!! Some loud applause please!!"

Such a loud clapping came from 9 guys sitting on the chair surrounding the table with the food that I-Ryeowook cooked this morning. I was blushing so hard as they invited me to sit with them.

Before I could decide where to sit, someone suddenly grabbed my arm and pulled me to an empty seat.

"What are standing there for? Sit here." Heechul oppa said.

So,what are you going to do today, Allora?" asked Heechul oppa.

"Umm... I am not sure yet. Maybe I will explore the neighborhood and look for a job or something? I said while looking around. Somehow I can't keep myself calm when there are so many set of eyes on me.

"What kind of job are you going to look for?" Ryewook oppa suddenly asked.

"... anything." I stuttered while trying to avoid eye contact with Ryewook oppa.

"Hmmm..."Siwon oppa said while thinking of something. Maybe about what I just said or maybe... about something else.

"By the way, Hecchul."

"What?"

"When are you going to let go of Allora's hand?"

When I heard that, I was surprised. Instantly Heechul let go of my hand. He looked sorry, seems like he didn't realise he had been holding my hand and neither did I.

"Do you have any schedule today?" I ask them without really directing to anyone.

"We do. But we still have some time before our schedule" answered Leetuk oppa.

"We have a radio programme to do after this and some TV Shows until late at night." Siwon oppa continued.

"Oh..." I said while staring down and starts playing with my fingers.

"Guys we have to go now or else we will be late for our schedule. Allora-sshi,thank you for the breakfast. By the way, we will be back late so you can have dinner first and you don't need to wait for us" Leetuk oppa said after as he put on his shoes.

NO ONE'S P.O.V

After they left the apartment Allora was left alone at the apartment. She looked at her watch, and it was still early in the morning.

She cleaned up the table, washed the dishes and swept the floor.... The whole house actually.

After a few hours has past... She went into her room to change into something nice and proper, put on some makeup (just a foundation and light lipstick) as she decided to go out and explore the neighbourhood. After making sure that the door is properly locked, she put the house's keys into her pocket.

She walked around the neighbourhood. The streets were filled with shops, retails, restaurants and cafes. There is this one cafe which picked her interest. The cafe was full with Super Junior's and other idols photos pasted on the wall. She went inside and look at each photo's that shows Super Junior members face.

Wow... They look so charming in all these photos. They all looked so different from how she sees them in their house. Funny and crazy. As she was concentrating on the posters, one of the worker there approached her.

ALLORA'S P.O.V

"May I help you, miss?"

Before I could answer, he continued, "Are you a fan of SUJU?"

"Yes." I said it.

"Which one is your favourite?"

That...is a tricky question. I like all of them equally.

"All of them...maybe?"

The way the guy looked back at me, it looks like he doubted my age or something.

"Are you a high schooler?"

"Nope. I have graduated from college recently."

"May I know which college?"

"I studied in America."

His eyes widen. "You're a foreigner?"

I nodded.

Somehow he observed me from bottom to top. "Do you want to work here?

Now my eyes widen. I can't believe what I just heard.

Did he just offer me a job? I really need a job though. I planned to find one after walking around here but to get an offer right away was... surprising. And this cafe is pretty comfy, fancy and the most important thing, this cafe's theme is 'Idol' since the wall is full with posters, CDs and idols faces which is a pretty interesting place to work at.

But... Maybe I should think about this more. Whether it is fine for me work here especially since I'm living with the REAL SUJU and it is somehow a major secret. I can't imagine if the fans find out. They will probably go mad.

After saying goodbye to the worker as well that I will give him an answer ASAP, I continued my day walking around, memorising roads, stations and transits. Since I wanted to live here longer, I should learn more about this country and their language.

Somehow when I got to know Ara unnie, she taught me Korean so much from lesson 1 till where I am right now. I can basically understand and reply in Korean quite well.

After wasting my day, I decided to go back as I felt tired and sore. Especially my leg. I looked at my watch and it was 5pm. Leeteuk oppa said they will be late. So I guess I will be having dinner alone tonight. Even though, he said that, I don't really know what to eat. Maybe I should call delivery. But won't that be more dangerous since SUJU location will be found out. Hm....

I quickly changed into comfortable clothes and lazily dragged myself to the kitchen. I opened the refrigerator and searched if there's anything inside for me to eat. My eyes brighten when I saw a plate of spaghetti, wrapped. Immediately, Ryeowook oppa's face popped in my mind. It must be him. He must be thinking that I will be hungry. So, he left me a plate of spaghetti. Aww... I am falling for Ryeowook... just kidding. But I am really thankful.

After eating the spaghetti, I planned to wait for the boys and Ara unnie to come back before going to sleep. So I switch on the television and watched whatever drama or movie or show that came out. As I pressed the remote button randomly, suddenly Running Man showed. I sat myself properly, and to my surprised, it was the episode where Kyuhyun and Leeteuk was on. Must be a repeated episode.

I watched this episode before in my old room. I rarely missed Running Man episode since the day the Running Man was showing on TV. Whenever I watched Running Man, it always made my day happy. But...

I shook my head. Nah. I should forget about the past and starting to live my life. As Kyuhyun's and Leeteuk's face shown in the TV. I felt weird. I felt like... "Oh... they really are celebrity." or "They are better looking in person." But... Oh well, I enjoyed the show and watched it till the end.

Time sure runs so slow. Its only 7:30 pm and I have nothing to do. Dinner, eaten. TV, watched. I decided to take a shower and after that read a novel which I bought along. As I was reading the book, my eyes suddenly felt so heavy... But I don't want to sleep yet. I want to greet them, saying "Welcome home!" with a happy looking face for the first time and asked them how was work? Or politely serve them some tea or whatever drink they have. However, without realizing it. I am falling... asleep.

DONGHAE'S P.O.V

Before going for our schedule, I had to make sure that all the members went out first and I am alone in the kitchen. Thank god Allora went to the bathroom. After making sure that no one is around, I immediately took out the food that I had the day before. I hidden it nicely behind all the food packaging. I neatly put the spaghetti on a plate and wrapped it.

"How about I leave a note? Then she will know I was the one who gave her this. Is that supposed to be a good thing or not?" While thinking, I take out a piece of paper, and wrote a small note on it.

To Allora,

Here's a spaghetti for you to eat. I had it last night and thought that you would like it too. Hope you enjoy it...and good luck with your job hunting."

From,

Donghae

After I wrote it, I smiled broadly. I hoped she liked it and get all her energy back since she fainted last night.

To my surprise, I heard the bathroom's door open. Before I could leave the note, I only managed to put the spaghetti and the note... in my pocket.

I rushed to the main door and lock it. I joined the group with a poker face pasted. As Leeteuk asked me what I was doing, I just told him that I went to get something. Secretly, I crumpled the note that was in my pocket. And whenever and wherever I am, I'm always reminded by Allora's face when she is eating the food.

Am I? Nah...
