“Tsk! Tsk!!” Alexa called stealing glances at Elizabeth.
“Huh?” Elizabeth replied still looking at Flora, in shock.
“Let’s kill her!!” Alexa yelled at the extreme top of her voice. Elizabeth nodded and stood up quickly. Alexa did the same.
Flora noticed this and picked up a quick race round the room, jumping, climbing, running and all!. They were chasing her all around the house while Flora kept screaming in danger still trying to avoid them. The guys simply watched in utmost laughter.
“Hey! When we get you! You are done for!” Alexa screamed.
“But… What did I do? You should be welcoming me instead” Flora said.
“Why didn’t you call us? What about texting? Why come so suddenly, like some corpse….after 3 years!” Alexa yelled
“I un-derstand… Huh! Hey! I’m Sorry!” Flora replied still running around. She was however unfortunate. Elizabeth jumped like a monkey and quickly pu-lled her down.
Alexa walked up to her and hit her head.
“Aiiish!! Annoying br@t!” Alexa cried out. Elizabeth sighed and let Flora go. She walked to the chair and sat down heavily.
“I’m really sorry, seriously” Flora pa-nted heavily.
Alexa looked at her with teary eyes. Elizabeth sighed sadly while the boys watched. Suddenly, They busted out in tears. They ran to Flora and hu-gged her immediately.
“We’ve… missed you… so… much!” Alexa cried loudly.
“We thought you forgot all about us!” Lizzy sniffed. Flora sighed and hu-gged them ti-ghtly.
“I’m not crazy to do such” Flora replied dise-ngaging the hu-g. They looked at her and smiled, cleaned their pouring tears and sat close to her.
“How was U.K?” Lizzy asked
“It was fun… I learnt lot of new things. I almost behaved like them. But I remembered where I came from” Flora laughed
“But why? Why didn’t you even contact any of us, ever since. We were dying to see you” Alexa said.
“It was actually Dr br@ndon. He made me cut out all my connections with my friends and loved ones. I only talked to my parents using his home phone” Flora explained
“Hmmm… But Flora, I thought you would be much more thinner than this. Probably just as Slim as how you were, years ago when you use to dance ballet” Alexa commented
“Actually… I don’t have to be so slim.. I just wanna be myself. Remember, Gaining weight was what saved me. If I didn’t eat anything from Ken, I would have entered that plane which would bring back my corpse back to you guysâ
“It is rejected!” They all cut her short.
“…..Dana died on my stead. Hmmm, Guys… Let me be grateful on how my b©dy looks now.. Besides, I’m not that fat anymore” Flora smiled.
They all nodded with a smile.
“The Skyy Boys are all over the news! The world knows how well you are making it. You’re also popular in the UK. Your alb-um was really great. Many became your fan because of your great voices and faces too” Flora chuckled bringing in a good topic to lighten the mood. The boys scratched their head smiling.
They looked at each other and laughed. They had a slight feeling of embarras-sment.
“I can’t believe they are now famous! They got various kind of Awards this year” Collins chipped in.
“Yeah… So, What about you, Collins? What have you been up to?” Flora smiled
“I’m a university studentâ
“Oh… Which university? The one Alexa âwantedâ to attend?”
“Yeah…That’s the one. I’m studying law. This time I’m gonna make sure no one dies in court” Collins said.
“Hey? Wanted to attend?How did you know I didn’t get into the university” Alexa frowned
“It obvious” Flora giggled
“Are you making fun of me? Hey! Don’t look down on me” Alexa snorted.
Flora laughed and looked at Lizzy.
“What about you, Lizzy? How have you been doing?” Flora asked
“Well…. I couldn’t be the singer I wanted and dreamed to be”
“Why? Didn’t you go for auditions or met with some people who would help?”
“I did… But my parents said I wouldn’t be a singer and date Collins at the same time. I had to choose one”
“So? Wow… Power of Love!.Don’t tell me you chose Collins??!”
“Well… Yeah, It was a ha-rddecision. I just wanted to make my parents happy. They felt sad and heart broken after Deborah’s death. I just had to obey them… They like Collins now though”
“That’s nice… But are you doing anything now? Or is there anything you would probably like to do?”
“I’m… doing something actually” Elizabeth chuckled
“Wow? Seriously?… What’s that?”
“Last year The Skyy Boys Manager, Mr Lee resigned. So, I recently signed a contact with them… I’m their acting manager now”
“Wow!!!!!” Flora gushed.
….It’s great though… I’m happy for you! You like the job right?”
“Yeah… Yeah.. It’s cool. I love it” Lizzy smiled.
“Okay… Now, Alexa? What about you? What have you been doing lately? Did you achieve your dream?”
“No… I didn’t,As you mentioned earlier, It’s obviousâAlexa frowned and Flora raised her brows.
…But I did what I loved. I’m now the best Fashion designer for Men Wears in the whole of Seoul!” Alexa replied.
“Whooaaa!!!” Flora clapped.
…..I’m happy for you, darling” Flora smiled,applauding.
“Did you watch their recent MV?” Alexa asked pointing at the Skyy Boys
“Yeah… It’s the #1 in YouTube and all music platforms” Flora replied.
……Something about us? Right?” Flora added
“Yeah” Alexa nodded
“I really loved that music. Also The Music video was a blast.. It created waves! The whole world were literally talking about it” Flora smiled
“Now, If you watched the MV closely. You are gonna notice their beautiful and great clothes they were putting on” Alexa said.
“Yeah… Yeah… I noticed them!! It was so good! I kept looking at the clothes while watching the video on TV!”
“Guess what?” Alexa giggled
“What???” Flora gushed
“I made them!!! And many more!”
“Wow! Seriously?? This is so great”
“Thank you! Men have been patronising me from far and wi-de!” Alexa smiled
“I’m really astonished! Despite not achieving what you wanted. You’re still happy doing what you love… What your heart wants. But Guys, What does âsomething about us meansâ?What does the title mean?” Flora rolled her eyes.
“Ask him. He was the one that chose the title and also wrote the lyrics” Ken pointed at Ethan.
“Oh… Ethan? It was you?” Flora asked. Ethan chuckled and nodded.
“What’s the meaning behind it? Is there any reason why you gave it, that title?” Flora asked
“Huh…. Actually, It’s a secret” Ethan chuckled. Flora nodded with a sm-irk on her face.
“I see… So, What about Alicia? How’s she?” Flora asked
“She’s good now. Behaving like other normal kids her age. At least not to smart than usual” Alexa chuckled.
“Wait? Did she get her intelligence re-moved?” Flora was shocked
“A bit. Now she’s just behaving like her age mates instead of the unusual” Alexa explained. Flora smiled and sighed softly in relief.
“So? What about you,Flora?. What have you been doing lately too?” Alexa asked
“Me?” Flora scratched her head. Alexa nodded as others looked at Flora.
“Huh…. Actually, Just like you guys… I didn’t really fulfil my dream but at least… I’m doing what I love”
“Like what?” Lizzy asked
“I’m a ballet clas-s teacher”
“Wow” Alexa smiled
“It’s cool” Eric commented.
“You know most ballet teacher teaches really slim students but I teach students who gained little weight instead….I wanted to show others that people with the unusual weight could do it too… Mrs Allen.. You all remember her, right?”
“Yeah.. She was your ballet clas-s teacher. Because of her nasty behavior, You couldn’t continue ballet. Just because of gaining 2kg?” Lizzy retorted
“Well… Thanks to her, Ken and the 2kg… I am still alive… She came over to the UK as a judge for a big ballet dance audition… I was so surprised when I saw her. The female student I brou-ght, gained 5kg than the normal weight… I did believe in her. Then, I had to show Mrs Allen,average weight ballet dancers could do it too”
“So? What happened?” Collins listened with ra-pt attention.
“She was surprised and astonished after seeing my student dance well especially after noticing and checking out her real weight”
“She would be so damn shocked as hell” Ken giggled
“So? What happened?” Alexa eyes grew wi-de due to curiosity.
“….We came the 2nd place!!”
“Wooooowww!! Wooo-hoo!!” They all screamed in happiness. They all hu-gged Flora in joy.
“Guys… I’m really happy now! Let’s go have fun at the club!!” Ken shouted
“Club??? Nah… Not a fan” Lizzy replied abruptly.
“Just give it a try for us, Huh?” Flora said innocently. Elizabeth smiled and nodded.
“Let’s go, Guys!!” Alexa smiled.
*********(THE CLUB NIGHT)********
“Alexa?” Flora whispered drinking the wine from the glas-s cu-p.
“Huh?” She whispered back.
“What about Eric? Doesn’t he have a girl yet?” Flora sighed
“Uhhhh… Yeah, Not yet”
“I totally un-derstand him. He’s still into you”
“I’m still for Ethan… He’s gonna feel something for someone soon.. I’m sure”
“I hope so” Flora sighed. She looked in front and met Ken signalling her for a dance. She smiled and stood up.
“Excuse me girl… My Boyfriend nee-ds me right now. Besides, I can’t watch Collins and Elizabeth steal the whole show” Flora chuckled. Alexa laughed and watched her leave.
Alexa looked at the two different couples dance in love and joy. “I wonder where Ethan and Eric is?” She thought and stood up. She walked outside and met the both of them laughing and discussing.
“Hey guys” Alexa smiled walking to them.
“Oh hey… I’m gonna leave you guys together… Enjoy” Eric smiled entering the club throu-gh its door. Alexa and Ethan watched in with a sad pity look. Alexa sighed and walked closer to Ethan.
“My baby” Ethan suddenly stra-pped his arms around her b©dy from behind.
“……Ethan… The stars are so beautiful” Alexa smiled as they looked at the sky filled with bright stars. Ethan smiled and ti-ghtened his arms around her. It was a beautiful back hu-g. He stoked her hair gently and ki-ssed her by her ne-ck. Alexa reacted by laughing.
“I love you… And you are much beautiful than the stars” He smiled
“As if… Alexa laughed. âNow tell me, What’s the meaning behind the title?” She added
“What?” He whispered resting his jaw on her shoulder still from behind.
“Something about us?” She chuckled
“Nah… It’s nothing great or serious though. Well.. The thing was that… Right from the day I met you at the bridge when you were a little student âAlexa chuckled softly at this statement.
, I felt something about you… And something about me too” He completed
“I also felt something about you…including something about me” Alexa whispered
“Since when?… The bridge where we first met? Or at the club night where we fought?I remember when you kicked me. Ouch! You also said we were not going to see each other again. Never!”
“Wh… What? How… did you rememâ
“I remember that. Who wouldn’t remember their lover’s face? Especially now you just look like a woman”
“Oh wow. I’m impressed” Alexa scoffed
“Since we had something about each other… that means we felt somâ
“Something about us!!!!!” Alexa yelled smiling flashily.
“You do know” He laughed and ki-ssed her cheek.
Alexa chuckled and turned to face him. She wra-pped her arms around his ne-ck and he took his arms around her wa-ist.
“…Alexa… Thank you for everything”
“I’ve done a lot. So, What now in p@rticular?”
“For creating my second home” He smiled staring into her eyes.
“The bathroom?” She whispered. He simply nodded.
“When we get home… Let’s go see my mother in there together”
“Wh… What?”
“In our imaginations”
“Oh… ” Alexa laughed
“I love you” He whispered suddenly as he stole glances at her eyes and her li-ps.
“I love you so much more” Alexa whispered. Ethan smiled and slowly pushed his li-ps on hers. Alexa reacted and felt his arms ti-ghten around her wai-stthe more.
They finally ki-ssed pas-sionately with their eyes gently shut and in between cute smiles.
A shooting star ran down the sky and the heavens opened pouring down sudden rainfall.
Others who were outside took to their heels to various shelters could find trying to avoid the cold rain. It was pouring heavily, cats and dogs!.
However, The two lovers weren’t moved. A R0m-ntic music began to pla-y and they continued ki-ssing more de-eper than before enjoying the rain and music.
