I made breakfast even though Jin doesn't eat I made it regardless. If he wanted to eat he could.I already had eaten before him and was washing my plate.
"Crepes?" He asked with a hint of amazement in his tone.
"No, they're French toast roll ups." I also made tater tots sausage scrambled eggs and coffee. "You're eating?"
"Yeah." He hummed. "I have quite some free time before I have to go to work."
I was about to walk away from the kitchen when he called out.
"Wait, you're not eating?" He asked, I shook my head.
"I already ate. I'm meeting up with my cousin so I have to go." I said.
"Oh I see." He said.
I paused in my tracks.
You have to tell him Elle. Let him know, tell him!
I looked at him. "I have something to say."
"Sure." He stated sipping on some coffee.
"I...I don't ask you for anything. I don't ask you for anything at all and I'm not asking for you to love me or hold me or give me affection or your time, I...I just...want respect. I'm a human, I may not matter to you but maybe I matter to someone somewhere else...and I have feelings. That's all I ask."
He opened his mouth to say something but I wasn't finished. "And you can hit me, grab me until I bruise, yell at me do whatever you want for speaking out against you in your house but I just needed to tell you."
"Why do you say in my house?"
I ignored him, I had said what I needed to so with that I walked out of his home. I felt...brave. For once, I felt like I had done something for me and it felt good honestly.
-Jin-
I quietly ate thinking about her words. A wave of guilt washed over me.
In your house.
I finished eating and put away the dishes in the sink before heading over for work.

"She came back? That's great news. Maybe we should come over and say hi?" Namjoon suggested looking at me for approval.
