Chapter 3 Moving Out

<TWO HOURS LATER••LILY'S ROOM>

Lily opened her eyes slowly,sitting up,she looked around surprised to see she's in her room.

"How did I end up here?" She mumbled to herself,trying to recollect what happen after she had passed out.

Did Ricky brought her home?

"That's unbelievable! He didn't right?" She grinned dreamingly.

She climb off the bed,just as she was about to walk out of the room her phone started ringing from her bed,she grabbed it and check the caller ID.

It's Rudy!

"Why are you calling me this late?" She ask immediately.

"Is this your way of saying thank you for saving you from trouble" Rudy voice sounded over the phone.

"Wait... You brought me home? How?" She ask at once.

"You should get enough sleep and try recalling tommorow,your memories will surely come back" He said,she could feel him smirking from here.

"Wait! Wait... Wait-

"Goodnight!" Rudy smirked and hung up.

"That good for nothing crab! He really hang up on me!" She screamed and rough her hair.

She suddenly remember how Ricky choose her phone among thousands of people and make a video with it.

She immediately rushed to the media player,she spot the video and clicked on it.

"Oh my goodness!" She gasped,her eyes becoming teary as she watch. She fell on her bed and put the video on the video on repeat,watching it over and over again.

"He's so cute" She smiled and kissed her screen.

Cody walked into the living room and met Trace trying to play the lyrics of thier new song on his guitar,he has been on it since the previous night.

The mansion is actually made up of four rooms,they all had thier private room.

"You're still on this?" Cody said and Trace looked up and gave a nod. Cody walk into the kitchen and came back with a bottle of banana milk.

"You don't have to force it if it's doesn't work" He sat next to Trace who snatched the banana milk from him.

"What?"

"Do you want Kris trouble? You know how much he's obsessed with it,he doesn't joke with it" Trace said.

"I know but what can I do? We are on a strict diet since our comeback,we can't even have a proper drink! Gosh!" Cody groaned.

"Your fault for gaining weight" Trace laughed.

"I'm so jealous of Ricky! No matter what eat, he never add weight" Cody pouted.

"It is well" Trace patted him still laughing.

The door suddenly opened and Kelly entered with a scowl on his face. Trace and Cody looked up.

"What's the problem again?" Trace asked,finally dropping his guitar.

"As expected his fancam has more views than our mv" Kelly scoffed as he scroll through his phone.

"Ricky?" Cody asked. Kelly hissed and start heading upstairs.

"Our manager wants us to meet up before noon today" Trace said and Kelly stopped.

"I'm going out,text me the address" Kelly said and went straight into his room.

"Guys,guess...." Kris paused when he saw Cody with his drink.

"Don't tell me..." He said raising his brows.

"Sorry,I borrowed it" Cody grinned sipping the banana milk like a milk.

"I hate you!" Kris rolled his eyes.

"I love you big brother" Cody winked.

"Ricky isn't picking up,he has to know about the_

"I'll tell him about it" Kris immediately smiled and walk into the kitchen.

<RICKY'S APARTMENT>

Ricky slowly opened his eyes, squinting against the morning light that streamed through his window.

He sat up and stretched,letting out a groggy yawn. His bare face came to view, he's not wearing a mask neither a make up. He doesn't wear one when he's alone.

He stumbled out of bed and made his way out of the room.

As Ricky made his way into the living room,he could hear sounded like someone was clattering around the cabinet,he got to the front of the kitchen m

There was a woman who seems to be in her late 40's wearing an apron and stirring a pot of soup.

"M-mom?" he stammered. Jiwoo turned to look at him, a smile spreading across her face.

"Son! I've been waiting for you to wake up,come I made breakfast" She walk out of the kitchen and start setting the table.

She's actually a Korean,his dad is a Chinese.

"What are you doing her so early?" Ricky walk to her.

"What else? I'm sure you're skipping meals again cos of work,I couldn't stop worrying.. Have a seat" Jiwoo pulled him to sit.

Ricky took a spoon and took a small sip from the kimchi.

"Until when do you plan to hide your face from the world? You can keep this on forever" Jiwoo asked sitting next to him.

Ricky continue eating without a word.

"I dunno know" He muttered.

"Just what happen to you in highschool that you refused to tell us,not even me..

"Mum! I don't want to talk about it" Ricky snapped.

"Why don't you just come back home? Why do you have to make yourself suffer in this small and cozy store Please son..

Ricky dropped his spoon.

"I have a fan meeting today and I want to be alone before then,please leave mom" He said.

"Fine! I'm sorry, I won't try to convince you anymore. I'm only leaving cos I'm late for work,take care of yourself okay?" Jiwoo smiled patting his back.

"Saranghea adeul (I love you son) " Jiwoo waved and grabbed her bag,she walk out.

Ricky sighed and got up,he opened his cat cage and met its front paws tucked neatly under its body and its tail swishing lazily from side to side.

"White" Ricky called in gentle,soothing voice.

The cat's eyes were half-closed,and its head was tilted slightly to one side.

"White!" He shooked her and White opened his eyes slowly climbing on him immediately. She licked his face.

Ricky grabbed it's food on the table next to him and poured it in her food dish,he placed it in front of her.

He started patting her as she eat happily,his phone suddenly buzzed from his pocket.

It's a text from Kris.

*Our manager wants us to meet up before the first live performance* The text read.

Ricky dropped his phone and carried White in his arms.

<A COFFEE SHOP>

A waiter placed a lemonade in front of both Rudy and Minnie and walk away.

"Are you not feeling well? You've been frowning since we got here" Rudy suddenly asked.

"You said you are going to make it up to me only to bring me to a place like this?" Minnie murmured with an eye roll. Rudy sighed inwardly and turn to his drink.

"What's wrong with it?" He asked without looking at her.

"Everything is wrong! Don't you love me at all? I'm sure you brought your so called bestie already" Minnie nagged.

"This is my first time coming here! Do you always have to made a issue about Lily?"

"I hate Lily! I hate her for being your friend! I hate her so much!"

"Do you blame me? How can a grown up guy still be a bestie with a lady without liking her" Minnie hissed,sipping from her lemonade.

"Is that what you think of me?"

"Yes! I got scared almost every f**king day,worried that you'll tell me straight in the face how much you love her,I've seen how you looked at her Rudy" Minnie said and Rudy sighed out.

"Fine! I'm sorry,It will happen again. I'll make you my first priority from now on" He cupped her cheek.

"You look like you're being forced..." She mumbled looking down.

"I love you okay,let's stop fighting huh?" Rudy said and a smile escape Minnie's lips.

"I love you too! Please don't ever leave me" She blinked and Rudy sighed.
