He looked at me as if I was mad.
"No, I didn't. Why?"
"Nothing."
He shrugged and sat down beside me.
"You hungry?" he asked while scrolling on his phone. "I can order something if you like."
"No thanks I-" I got cut off by my phone suddenly ringing.
I picked it up and checked the caller ID. 'Mrs. Choi' it read. She was my neighbor. I picked it up,

On the phone
"Hello?"
"Hello Y/N?"
"Yes, Mrs. Choi. Did you need anything? "
"I wanted to ask that isn't there anyone in your house?"
"Yes. My dad is home."
"But I can't hear anything from there."
"Maybe he's outside."
"But I haven't heard anything from your house ever since you've left."
"Oh"
"Maybe you should check on your dad. Anyways, I need to go now. Bye."
"Thank you bye."

She hung up the phone.
It was too tiring to go home now. We thought of going home after staying another night here.
I bid goodbye to the idiot and went back to my room.

*splash*
The cold water felt good on my face. After this long and tiring day, I could finally rest even if it's for a little bit.
Turning the lamp off, I flopped down on my bed face down. My thoughts kept annoying me. I hoped this life was just a bad dream.
"You not dreaming honey." a small voice said at the back of my head.
"Shut up," I replied and before long, I was wandering along the streets of dreamland.

The soft sunray caressed my face. I grunted.
'7:30 pm' the clock read.
I rubbed my eyes adjusting to the environment. I got dressed and went to wake the idiot up.
*knock knock*
"Yah! Pabo! Wake up!"
...*No Response*...
"WAKE UPPP!!!!" I bellowed almost knocking the door down.
A crash and a loud grunt told me that he had fallen and woken up. My lips cracked into a smirk.
The door slowly opened revealing a very pathetic-looking Park Jimin.
"Get ready idiot. We're going now."

4 hours later...

We had finally finished packing and loading up the trunk.
"Let's go. Have you called your dad?" Jimin asked.
"Yeah but he's not picking up."
"Don't worry too much. Just enjoy the ride."

He cares for me very much. He comes with whatever I need anytime anywhere. His style of taking care was different neither my dad did it to me but always it feels like I have been in this much care by someone. I don't know who even something always knocks me and my feelings when Jimin is around. It feels like someone has loved me. I was being loved. And still loves me.

Our journey again started as we have come to Jeju-Do.

It's about 6 pm. We have reached home within 6 hours. That was really long and tiring journey. My legs were aching, can say my full body. I will go to the room and jump on the bed immediately. 

Our area was quiet and dark. The shade of the lamp post at every point of the road could be seen. Our neighborhood was polite as well. I stepped out of the car while Jimin was taking out the bags. I ran my hands to my leather handbag to grab my phone to call dad but at the same time thought what about giving him a surprise! He doesn't know that we are coming today as we were supposed to come after 2 days.

"Aren't you going in?" I asked him to put my bags in front of our main gate and go back to his car.

"I'll meet your dad tonight and have some gossip but first let me take some rest at home." he unlocked his car's door and sat on the seat.

Probably, it was my hallucination but I was smelling something really fishy or rotten flesh. A smell of a dead body I guess. I knew how a dead body smells like. Back in my childhood, when my dad brought me to the morgue to meet my dead mom. That was really hard for me to bear. But anyways the current situation is just my hallucination, I trust.

Twisting the doorknob with my right hand, as I turned my head back and saw that Jimin was still there waiting for me in the car until I go inside. He twinkled at me as he noticed I was staring at him. I gave him a sugary smile.

As I was about to go inside. the hazy stench pushed me back outside. My hand automatically slammed the door. I couldn't stand the unbearable stench anymore and covered my face with my hand. Shit! It wasn't an illusion.

Seeing Jimin was coming inside from his car while placing his palm on his lower half face like me and asked, "You smell that too?"
