The hydraulic wail of the plane engine whines out as it lands. Yena stares out of the window as if hypnotised, marvelling at Korea's tall buildings with its bright neon signs and snow-covered tree branches. Sakura lets go of Chaeyeon's hand to unbuckle her seatbelt.
They retrieve their luggage from the airport and make their way down into a taxi Chaeyeon called for, to a certain home in Seoul.
...
The bell rings.
"Chaeyeon's here!" Yujin squeals. Eunbi barges past everyone else, family and all, to open the door. The chilly winter air flows in along with four girls, each muffled up in scarves and coats, carrying duffel bags and suitcases.
"Eunbi-ah, this is Sakura," Chaeyeon says shyly. "And this is Yena."
Yena sticks out her hand in offer of a handshake, which Eunbi pulls into a hug instead. Chaeryeong and Chaemin have already begun to weave their way into the kitchen to nip at the hot chocolate.
Sakura pulls away her scarf from her nose and grins at Eunbi.
"Wow," Eunbi marvels, taking down her scarf further, "she really is pretty. Take care of our girl, Kkura."
"I will!"
