Author's POV1.30 am Incheon AirportSnow is falling softly turning the dark night dreamy...and also miserably cold. The poor souls not tucked warmly in their own warm house, huddle into themselves quickly walking towards their destination, disregarding everybody else. A svelte young lady got out from a black luxurious car . She walked towards the airport entrance with her head down to avoid meeting eyes with anyone. The door to the airport entrance opens and a lone woman walked out pushing her trolley. She is covered with a blue boyfriend jeans, a red knitted sweater topped with a black leather jacket. On her feet are a pair of black Doc Martens boots, her shoulder is hooked with a brown suede tote bag and her head is covered with a knitted beanie. (credits to the owners of this lookbook)"Unni!!....Nana unni" the young lady called out to the older woman. "Eow...Amber-ah....How are you?" Athenna asked, pleasantly surprise as she hugged the young woman tightly. "I'm fine unni. I saw your paparazzi pictures" Amber said with a wide grin. Athenna rolled up her eyes and said "Disturbing isn't it? I cant believe someone knows me all the way in Fiji". Amber chuckles softly, while Athenna smile gently while looking at her. The young woman very rarely smiles it seems. Although she is absolutely gorgeous, there is always a certain kind of sadness surrounding her all the time. Athenna heart aches a little every time she sees her, remembering the hell the young woman had gone through. Her family had known Amber's since she was young as the Choi and the Lee runs in the same circles and are genuine friends. Hence Athenna is aware of what Amber and her oppa Seung Hun had gone through when they were young. "Unni...I have to go. Need to check-in soon otherwise I'll miss my flight" Amber said softly. "New York?" Nana asked. "Ermm...for the S/S season. I have to walk a few shows and have a couple of shoots to complete"  Amber said nonchalantly. Athenna laughs and is genuinely happy to see Amber had grown up so well and is so sought after as a top model. "Okay. Have fun dongseng-ah. Give my love to your oppa k" Athenna said while the younger woman nodded. "Give my love to Soo Hyuk & L-Joe oppa too unni. Tell L-Joe i have his songs on my playlist. I saw Soo Hyukk oppa in London for the Gucci show the other day" Amber said before walking off. Athenna turn to look at her until the door slides close before continuing to walk towards the rows of taxis waiting, intending to catch one home.She paused for awhile and looked up at the sky. She extended her hand out trying to catch a drop of snow and inhale in the crisp winter air. She sighed and whispered "Its good to be back. Well done Athenna...you did good". "Its miserably cold huh?" said a deep voice besides her. She turned and gasp....its L Joe. "You!! How did you know I was coming back tonight?" she asked. "Puhlease noona...How else?...Appa told me of course" he said with a grin. "You look good noona" he further said as he engulf her in a big warm hug. Athenna hang onto her cousin for awhile longer. She breath in his familiar scent and let herself relax in his embrace.....feeling secure and comforted. She remembered the days when she was the one who comforted him like it was yesterday. Guess when she was not looking he went grown up to be a great man. "Lets go home noona..."he said softly as he pushed the trolley. "I saw Amber just now. The girl is on her way to New York" Athenna said when they are already making their way. L Joe glance at her as he drives. "She looks well but there is something about her that my heart aches every time I see her. Owh and she said to tell you she has your songs in her play list" Athenna continued as she looked out the window. "T
