"So which one is your house" Heechul asked Kaori whilst walking down a quiet street together.

He then walked over to a drain and pointed to it whilst announcing "ah so this is your home".

Kaori walked over and slapped his arm whilst muttering a sentence in Spanish.

"Can you translate that for me?" Heechul asked.

"I said wow you are so funny and stupid" she replied truthfully.

"Oh well that's nice" Heechul replied, nudging her gently.

She continued walking.

They strolled in silence down the dark road. Kaori was several meters in front with her hands holding an art book. Heechul had both hands tucked into his pockets.

She slowed and began to unlock a worn metal gate. She walked up the stone slab path that lead to a white door expecting Heechul to follow.

Heechul followed soundlessly.

Fiddling with some keys before sliding them into the lock. The door opened and the two wandered in.

Kaori placed her keys on the table beside the door making a clank bounce off the walls. She then walked further into the main area of the house and turned on a light switch to reveal her home.

"Welcome to my glamorous house, temporarily yours for the next few weeks" Kaori proclaimed.

"Anyone home?" Heechul called out whilst walking into the open plan kitchen and living room. It was small but cosy. The light green walls were decorated with pictures, all of which contained a middle aged woman and a little girl. Heechuls eyes laid upon a picture where the little girl was in a black kimono decorated with vines blooming with red flowers and the middle aged woman was crouched beside her, holding her close. The little girl looked happy.

"My mum and I are very close" Kaori answered his not yet asked question.

"Dad?" Heechul asked, examining the girls face.

"He left, pretty cliché huh" she chuckled.

"I'm sorry" he apologised.

"Don't bother, thank god he's gone" Kaori said bluntly whilst flicking Heechuls forehead.

"How about food" Kaori shouted as she walked over to the kitchen cupboard.

"I mean I should be showing you Japanese culture so how about we settle for some pizza and then we mess around with some Japanese kids candy"

"Sounds like a plan Heechul said as he sat on one of the two bar stools.

Half an hour passed and the two sat on the stools eating pizza.

"Let's play a game" Heechul asked in a muffled voice.

"Don't speak with your mouth full in Japan" Kaori scolded him.

He swallowed and repeated.

"Let's play a game" he said clearly this time.

"What kind of game?" Kaori asked.

"Hmm, truth or dare?" Heechul suggested.
