Part 2: The BustKey's POV"Oh, thank you, yeobo! I'll call our son now!""Yah, Key, not so loud. And I told you to stop calling me 'yeobo'!"Then Onew hung up on me. Oh well, he's my husband now again.I glanced beside me and saw the devil checking her phone."Dammit! No one's contacting me! They're all busy!" she said to herself. More like shouting at herself. Kekekekeke~!Comparing heights, the top of her head reaches Minho's waist. Ha~!Speaking of which, he was chasing Taemin awhile ago, wasn't he?Oh, how could I not pay attention to those people!I'll call my son. :). . .. .. ringtone: Bo Peep Bo Peep Bo Peep~ Ah!"Hello, Key-umma?"Omo! He gave me the perfect ringtone! He's definitely my son!"Taeminnie, where are you? I've been worried sick about you!""Oh. Hehe~ sorry, umma. Minho and I are on a date.""WHAT?!" I realize the devil can hear our conversation because I accidentally pressed the speaker button.But, still, this is a serious matter! Of course we'd both react this way!"Taemin-ah, you're full of brevity. Give me the phone."I can tell from Minho's deep voice that he's blushing. Is this really true?!"Key-umma, I won't corrupt Taemin's head. He's too special for that."Good, so maybe this isn't true...?"We're just all giving you and Connie some space. You two need to sort things out.""What are you talking about?" I don't get it. I glanced down next to me. Connie doesn't seem to get it, either.Good. Then I'm not alone."Connie, if you can hear me, listen well. Ask Key-umma if you need anything. That'll be our gift to you for Christmas AND for your 16th birthday. Also, I'm sorry that I missed December 8th. I liked the present you gave me on my birthday the next day. Thank you."My eyes widened. It was the devil's birthday on December 8? And Minho's birthday was on the next day... wait, she's 16 years old now?!But her sister's 17 years old right now!One year apart AND one foot apart?!Wait, I'm 20 years old in Korea, so that should make me 19 years old here...Yah, she's only about 3-4 years younger than me?!"Key, take care of Connie. Bye.""Wait - where are you guys going while we shop?""...we're on a bus to...Taemin, where are we?"Am I really going to have to go through with this again?"Ayo, give me the phone, Minho! Key-umma! We're going to go downtown, at least that's what the bus driver says.""You're lying! Don't lie, son! I know you have your appa with you!""You mean Jonghyun-hyung? We were about to go to the bus altogether, but Hyung said he'll meet us later in ChinaTown Downtown...? Then he left with Nikka-noona.""What?!" So Jjong used me and Connie as an excuse to be with Nikka, that PABO!"Hyung, we can spend time with Noona's family later on in ChinaTown Downtown, at least that's what Noona said before Hyung pulled her out of the bus.""Ayo, I don't want to go to ChinaTown Downtown! That place sucked! We've only been there once and it's only what Ate likes!" Konini complained in English.By now, we were walking towards the nearest bus stop. I checked my bag earlier and found newly wads of cash stuffed into my wallet!Wow, they must be eager to make up for Konini's birthday!As soon as we arrived at the bus stop, I got a sudden text message from Abby. It was in English.From: Abby^-^To: AlmightyKey!!!Message: Don't forget to buy presents that we need for all our other families! I'm going to look for Onew-oppa and go to ChinaTown Downtown with him. Tell Connie to give me her #, and that I'll be spending time with her family later on! :D My own family went on a cruise right before it expired and barely contacted me now! :( I'm angry! But at least I get to spend time with Connie! :) Don't hurt her! Bye!"What do they expect?! We buy all the gifts?!" I thrusted my cellphone to Konini.I sat down in fustration and covered my face with my hands.After a while, Konini gave my phone back to me. I took it from her hands and quickly searched through it."...you have my # on your phone, huh? Not just Amber's." I mentioned in English."What makes you say that?" she asked me in English. By now we've been conversing between Korean and English languages."I have your # here that says 'Connie-unnie'. What does that make me?""Isn't it obvious?" she snickered at me.She showed me her phone. My eyes shot open wide at the name 'SpoiledKimmie'. Yah! What the hell?!Hmph. If that's the game she'll play, I'll go along with it.She caught me doing something to my phone. "Hey, what are you doing?""Hey, you can save me as anything on your phone. So I should be doing the same thing? Keke~!"I showed my phone to her. Her monkey eyes grew wider at the name 'MyDevilKonini'."What the hell?!"I laughed so hard as I was moving my phone away from her reach.Just then the bus had arrived. We both calmed down and climbed onboard.After paying the bus faire, Konini's phone was ringing Onew Sangtae~ chant that we SHINee members made for Onew's presence in the group.Can't believe she has that as a ringtone. I wonder who's calling her - "Hello? Onew-oppa."Should've known that ringtone was for Onew-hyung only. Kekeke...."Okay. (to me) Kibum-ah, Onew-oppa said to check your bag for a list of items we need to buy.""Yah! Beggars can't be choosers! And call me 'oppa'!""Not while we're in America. I'll call you whatever I want." She stuck her tongue out at me.I mirrored her act, then searched for the list. Found it.Ahh~! It's too much items!~10 minutes later~"I just got a text from Minho-oppa.""Oh, what did he text?"Konini showed me her phone. She still can't read much symbols like Nikka and Abby, but she can read it out better than they both can. One of the reasons why those 3 are the "Most Valuable Princesses" in SM Entertainmment.I read the text that Minho sent her. Just a normal text.Except for the From: part. Minho was put in as MyFlamingPrince on her phone.I've stared at it for about 5 minutes."Why is he listed like this on your phone?" I asked her as I handed her phone back."Mind your own business." She turned the other way.We were both in a two-seater inside the bus. She sat where the window was.I noticed how smooth the face of her skin is....I've stared at her for about 10 minutes.Another 20 minutes later and I couldn't take it anymore."Honestly, what do you see in Minho that you don't see in me?" I blurted out.I was curious at the moment, so sue me.She turned back to look at me coldly."You're not romantic enough. Plus, you're not manly enough.""What?!" I'm baffled. Not manly enough?! Not romantic enough?!"Well, we'll see about that!" I exclaimed to her.The bus stopped in front of Tokyo Downtown. We were close to our destination.I pulled the little brat out of the bus and continued to pull her until we got to the nearest fashion store.Luckily, not one Asian has tried to ambush me.Thank God SHINee's under hiatus at the moment! Otherwise people would get to figuring out that I'm Almighty Key!Quickly, I pulled a lot of clothes from the rack and gave them to Konini.I ushered her to the changing room. She stopped and turned around to look up at me."Why are you doing this? What the hell's going on?"I grinned and slowly whispered in her ear."I'll show you how outgoing of a person I am. Then you'll decide later if I'm the right one for you."I saw her blush and rush to one of the changing rooms.Honestly, I don't know why I said that.It didn't even make sense to me; I wasn't supposed to prove to her how outgoing I am.I guess, I just wanted to beat Minho at his game.I wanted Konini to see me as a prince instead of Minho.What's this feeling inside of me?...Labels: fiction, guardian, story
