Chapter 24

Took off the shirt.

Rosé begins to wipe the body for intoxicated Jimin.

Starting from face to neck, run down to shoulders and arms. She continues to his chest and then to his tummy.

Finished wiping only his upper body, she puts back the towel in a bowl.

She thought he completely fell asleep. Who knew she was about to get up, a hand gripped her wrist out of blue, stopped her from moving from the edge of the bed.

"Don't go", "Don't leave me"

Jimin opened his eyes, giving her a stare telling her don't leave him.

In the previous time, he looked extremely intoxicated. In this period, he doesn't look like that. What she can tell, but it's not so sure for her. He seems a normal person.

The eyes that are looking at her are the eyes of a person who was not drunk.

Or it was from him sleeping and she wiped him so it made him sober up.

Nonetheless, the pair of eyes made it clear to her that he was not drunk. In the end, she chose her assumptions vaguely.

"You're drunk", "Go back to sleep"

"Tomorrow morning, it's weekend", "I'll cook soup for you to eat to relieve", "In the morning you'll wake up feeling a headache"

Rosé can't even get up because Jimin grips her wrist firmly, make her unable to move. Turn head down to the grip.

"Go back to sleep" she repeats.

Without awareness, Jimin raises.

Instead of letting go of her wrist, Jimin cups Rosè's face in his hands. His couple eyes stare into her eyes deeply to her soul. Without blinking a bit.

Rosé starts to feel uncomfortable, insecure with his suddenly unexpected behaviour. He doesn't seem Jimin, this is a Park Jimin who used to be or whoever.

Moreover, she stares into his eyes too and kind of considering. She can't consider anything, no idea to define. His weird behaviour popped up, she hasn't got ready to face the new of him.

Jimin speaks up a husky tone, sending a shiver through her body run down her spine.

"Rosè, I mean Pasta", "Pasta"

"What! he called me by the nickname" Rosè thought.

"I'm sorry" she doesn't get what he wants to say.

Jimin carries on, "I heard you utter yesterday night", "I heard all".

The soul stare of him made Rosè feeling like she was exposed. She's quiet, nothing to respond.

"You don't need to be Chae", "I don't want you to think like that", "Just being yourself, the Rosè", "The Pasta who I used to know"

"Stop pretending, be your self"

Rosé cuts him off, what is he talking about

"Jimin!", "You must be too drunken", "You speaks nonse..."

That's Jimin's turn to cuts Rosè off once, "No Pasta, I'm not drunk", "I'm all right".

"I had considered you as my best friend ever since we were young until you were brave to confess to me first", "I didn't expect the thing would happen between us".

Rosé frowns, want to pull his hands away. She can't, "Stop, Jimin", "Stop bring it up", "It's past".

"No Pasta", "Please listen to me" he refuses.
