Happiness comes with the (1/1)

Saturday, 1:05 pm

Hwang Residence  It was a big house for Seoul, with its manicured lawn, bursting fuchsia azaleas and clinging snow white roses set here and there to add elegant color to the deep greenery that offset the deep hue of the house.The high red brick walls that surrounded the place gave it a stately aura, though it housed a rather simple family.

But even simplicity has its moments of chaos.The front door slammed open as two blurs raced out onto the spongy grass, barefoot, dancing around each other in a game of keep-away."Stop Aerin-ah! Give it back right now!"The girl laughed brightly and swung away from his outstretched hands."Ah ah ah, no way Yun-yun" she taunted. She was fast, he had to admit it, but she didn't see who was coming up stealthily from behind."Hyeong!" Haeyun shouted suddenly.Aerin spun but she wasn't quick enough to evade her gorilla of a brother.Chansung grabbed her around the waist, lifting her, her toes dangling in the air thanks to his massive height."Chansung Oppa, no fair, put me down you ape!" Aerin squealed as she struck his forearms with her fist.Chansung laughed, full and boisterous, then spun her with glee, her hair flying around her face as she giggled."Chansung-ah put your sister down." Came the long suffering voice of their Mother Cho Kyungmi from the front stoop with her arms crossed and a smile playing on her lips.As Chansung followed her direction and placed Aerin back on her feet she got ready to run again until her Mother spoke once more."Aerin give your brother back his hand phone."Aerin scrunched up her face and handed over the black and gold blackberry to her twin with a grumbling "here."His smug smile made her crinkle her nose."You just wait Yunnie, I'm going to tell Ki Bum-ah all about those posters in your closet." she hissed out so their mother wouldn't hear.Haeyun glared at her and stomped off, back into the house, bowing as he past his Father in the doorway."What's all this fuss about?" His booming voice echoed through the yard and made Aerin and Chansung stand at attention. "You'll have the neighbors talking again!" He reprimanded.Aerin and Chansung bowed their heads but they were playfully nudging each other as their Father went back inside with their Mother, her placating tone drifting like a butterfly's whispering wings to just brush their ears.The click of the wrote iron gate made the two look over to see their eldest brother coming up the slate grey stone steeps with his adorable five year old son racing ahead to fling himself at Aerin, clutching her legs in a child's exuberant hug. "Aerin Imo!""Oh it's our Jaein-ie! Jae jae-ah how was school today? You didn't have to stay very long right." Aerin said getting down to his level and cupping his cheeks in her hands affectionately."It was fun Imo, I got three stars today!" he said holding up the correct amount on his chubby little fingers.Aerin smiled, she really loved her nephew, he was a little miracle to their family."Oh ho, what did you do now, standing out here with bare feet? Did you get chased out again?" Injoong said incredulously as he eyed her pink tinted toes the wiggled in the plush grass beneath them."Ani, Oppa! I'm not always the one that causes problems" she admonished, but he gave her his narrowed eyed glare and she stomped her foot."Oppa!"Then Injoong and Chansung laughed and Injoong scooped up his son and the three males went inside followed by an indignant Aerin. They went into the large American styled kitchen, Chansung grabbed a banana, tweaking Jaein's nose after his appa sat him down at the island counter, the tyke grinned through his own mouthful of the 'monkey fruit' as he liked to call it. Aerin walked in, still annoyed, and stood at the counter space with one hand on the surface and the other on her hip. She began to tap her nails on the sandy colored granite top.Injoong turned from shutting the refrigerator with a glass pitcher of orange juice in his hand. As he poured a glass for Jaein he smirked up at his glaring sister. "That isn't going to do anything but give you wrinkles." he said amusedly.She still continued to glare at him and he sighed as he placed the glass in front of his son "Wae?""Oppa aren't you supposed to be on my side?""Oh come on Aerin, I was just teasing you." Injoong said sitting the juice container down on the counter."Yeah lighten up 'Nuna'." Haeyun said condescendingly as he drifted into the room flipping his bangs, current color a burnt umber, out of his eyes as he took a cup down from the cupboard to pour himself some of the orange liquid."Oh shut it ginger" Aerin said sharply and Chansung gasped dramatically, covering Jaein's ears with the banana, peel and all, hanging from his mouth.Aerin looked at her brother askance and sneered "Your so weird." as all the others burst out laughing.Aerin held out her hand to Jaein and said "Come on baby, lets leave the crazies alone and go play a game or something. You may become contaminated in here." She growled at her brothers, who were still laughing as the two left the room."Imo, what does contaminated mean?" Monday, 7:45 am

Outside Dolsinae Academy "Ugh, I did not want to get up this morning." Dongwoon said through a yawn as they strode up the walk towards the school. Aerin rolled her eyes at her friend and shifted her sliding bag strap back up onto her shoulder. She reached up and carefully touched the neat waterfall braid that parted the side of her hair into a flowing wave of dark chocolate.Haeyun had burst into her room this morning with orders to 'do something with that nest she called hair' so she'd had to sit through twenty minutes of debate, then tugging and pulling, before he was satisfied that he wouldn't get bitch slapped by his boyfriend once he saw her today."Rin-ah!" 'Speak of the diva' she thought as she turned and spotted her better half. She waved as Kim Ki Bum, better known to all as Key, trotted up beside her to critically eye her brothers handy work. He nodded, hugging her finally and she figured her bro had gotten a reprieve, darn it all."You could still give him a smack, I'm sure he's done something to earn it." she said stressing the word as she stared at her flamboyant besti.Key threw his head back and laughed, drawing that attention he loved so well."Dude tone it down." Dongwoon said rubbing his face comically.Ki Bum looked at him with pity "Aww did our Dongie have a late night?" he asked with a put on pout.Dongwoon made a face at him and Aerin had to suppress a giggle."Alright you two, let's go." She said grabbing both by an arm and dragging them with her into the school. ... "Did you see the way she was hanging all over them this morning?"

Jessica was at it again as she bashed one of her favorite targets since the first year of high school.

"It was disgusting, I mean, one of them is gay even! She has no shame."Aerin rolled her eyes and walked past the two gossiping bitches in the stairwell, one on the stairs, the other leaning on the wall."Hey back stabbers R us, how about you lower the volume next time you want to talk about someone that's coming down the stairs behind you." she said in passing.Gosh they really pissed her off!"Ew who let the skanks out?"Aerin grinned wickedly and turned around to witness Key waving his hand in front of him, his face painted with disgust.

Again his loud tone ensured that half of the student's in the hallway were looking at him as he continued."What'd you girls do, fall into a vat of cheap perfume? God, I think I'm getting an aneurysm from the fumes." he said dramatically clutching his head as he play-stumbled away, fanning himself.He walked towards Aerin wearing a smug little smile as the two twits behind him were left sputtering with red faces and glaring eyes."Hey doll face, did you get a whiff of dumb and ditzy over there? Whew!"The two friends broke down into fits of giggles as they walked away, Key placing his hand around her waist and she placing hers around his. They walked the halls like that many a time so it no longer drew the attention it used to. Besides everyone knew that Key and her brother were an item.They passed the new girl in the hall and she nodded a bow to Aerin, recognizing her from class. Key smiled at her and she nodded to him as well."Don't you have her in your class?" He asked suddenly."Yeah, why, you going back on the straight and narrow?""Ew, no" he scrunched up his nose at her and wriggled his fingers into her sides making her squeak. "You know I like Haeyun bookworm. No, actually I've got that Jiyong in my class and he's talked about her a little to Jonghyun.""Oh?" Aerin was a bit surprised, she wasn't really his style from what she'd heard of the gangster boy."Yeah, I don't think she's a 'what you see is what you get' type. She even picked the lock to the roof, if what he says is true."

Aerin nodded, She got the hint, don't underestimate the girl just because she looked small and helpless. A reminder that not everyone that looked cute and innocent was what they appeared. She'd had to learn that the hard way with Jessica at the beginning of high school a few years ago."I've got to go." Key said pulling her from her thoughts as they reached class 3-A.

Aerin poked her head in and waved at her brother, then stuck her tongue out at him when he had the nerve to roll his eyes at her."Yeah, go give my bro his daily dose of vitamin K."Key smiled and tugged a strand of her hair before striding into his class like he owned the place.

Aerin shook her head at his display and turned to continue on the her class room when her eyes fell upon HIM.He held her gaze for what seemed like forever, but in reality it was only a moment or two. Then he smiled and her head became fuzzy, her heart fluttered and she lost her breath. Then he was gone, walking down the hall to the stairs, going back down to his class room on the first floor.She placed her hand over her rapidly beating heart and breathed deeply.

They rarely saw each other outside of class, especially during the day, so she was a bit unprepared to find him just feet away, looking so deliciously handsome in his painting frock, delivering the flyers for the class trip later in the month.She wasn't one to be caught so off guard. Aerin quickly righted herself and breezed into class, not seeing the curious pair of eyes that followed her.   이모 - Imo - Aunt Congratulations BloodyRavens!  I hope I did justice to your character.
