You disappeared at the party I thought you had gone home" Leeteuk broke the silence.
"I hid in the toilet and cried for 2 hours because of you Jerk!" Sora wanted to say.
"I.. Uhh... I had stomachache. I probably ate too much"
"I see... are you ok now?"
"Yeah I'm good, thanks" "What do you care? just drive me home! your wife and son must be waiting for you!"
"Sora, how have you been? What do you do nowadays?"
Sora took a deep breath. "I am doing fine. I work in an advertising firm." Her plain answer. She felt there is no point to elaborate further.
"How about you? How's married life? Does your wife work? " She asked while looking outside the window. Bitterness painted on her face.
".... Wife? What wife?" Leeteuk nonchalantly replied.
"You are married right? Donghae and Eunhyuk mentioned you even have a son at the party earlier, remember?"
Leeteuk took a side glance at Sora and chuckled. "Oh that? I did not know you believe that?"
"But.. Eunhyuk and Donghae... You mean... they were just.... I thought.... " She cannot grasp the right question.
"Sora, I am single, no wife, no girlfriend, definitely no son. The boys were just having fun. Don't take them seriously" Leeteuk looked at her and smiled.

"Thank you for the ride, drive carefully on your way back. It was nice seeing you again. Uhm yeah... Good night" Sora rushed towards her doorstep. Careful not to let Leeteuk see the stupid smile on her face.
"....Sora?"
"Yes?" She quickly turned around and responded in a heartbeat.
"Well, I was wondering whether you have plans next weekend? We could maybe.... chat a while more and have some snacks if you fancy?"

"Dreaming is not so bad afterall" Sora closed her eyes and smiled. The day is over but the most exciting weekend of her life is happening very soon.
