F.R.I.E.N.D.S

The Heartbreak

Yoongi's POV

Every summer I will visit Gwacheon, not just to meet Jin hyung, but to meet also the girl that I admire and like the most. My parents would just let me do things by my own. My dad won't allow me though but when they found out that I have a rich friend like Jin hyung, he would say as long as I will not pursue my love for music, he would let me hang out with Jin hyung.

"Yoongi, you're here again." Seok Jung hyung said, Jin hyung's older brother. I didn't say anything instead I just nod.

"Is Jin hyung inside?" hyung nodded too and he motioned me to go inside their big house. Whenever I come here in Gwacheon, I will stay here in this big house. I actually like it though. I can write good songs and do it with my favorite hyung.

"I will not do it mom. Not without Yoongi with me." as soon as I step inside I heard Jin hyung told his mom.

"Oh come on Kim Seokjin. The agency wants to escort you. Only you."

"I've tried to stay in that agency mom, but I don't like it. I don't wanna be away with Yoongi. If you want me to be an idol then let me debut with Yoongi."

I was stunned in the entrance of their home when I heard their discussion from the living room.

"Mom, Jin, your voices are too loud. Yoongi is here." hyung tapped my shoulder and went ahead of me. I composed myself and let out a deep sigh, I plastered my so-called gummy smile as I went inside their living room.

Jin hyung looked at me with his weary eyes, his mom also looked at me with sadness because she didn't persuade her son enough. But she still smiled.

I bowed at her and greeted, "Annyeonhaseyo Mrs. Kim." she walked towards me and hugged me, then she pulled away and look at her son again.

"You wanna debut under that small entertainment?" she asked. Her eyes are fixated to us. I know she is worried that it will be difficult for us. We'll not just for us, but to our future members too.

"As long as we're in the same group mom." Jin hyung and I is really attached to each other for God knows when. I don't know how our friendship started but this hyung really made me feel so comfortable with him.

"I'll do what I can do then." his mom said in defeat.

"No mom. I don't want you to pull some strings just so I can enter to the agency. I want to do it by myself. Please understand." his mom then sighed deeply and she smiled genuinely at us.

"Yoongi do you want to come with me to the LP store?" Jin hyung suddenly said. I nodded nonchantly feeling excited, as I remember the reason what I really came here for.

"Let's go hyung."

The LP store is just a few blocks away from Jin hyung's house. The place is where Jin hyung discovered that I can write songs and he said I should be an idol. He was the first one who pursued me to do music.

As soon as we arrived on the store, I fix my clothes first and my hair, Jin hyung went inside first. I need to act cold again. Because that's how she should see me.

I push the door lightly and the door bell above the ceiling rang, and three pairs of eyes look at my direction. Jin hyung's, Jisoo, and Mika.

"Oh annyeong Yoongi." Jisoo stood up straight and greeted me. Jin hyung hissed at her and she did the same to hyung.

"I greeted you earlier and yet you just rolled your eyes on me while on Yoongi you greeted him with that annoying voice of yours?!" and that's when he rap again. I shook my head and look for some LP CDs being displayed. I can feel someone's presence following me but I didn't bother looking who it was.

I look at her arranging the LP CDs near the cashier area. Her natural brown hair color covered the sides of her face, she was clicking her tongue to make a soft sounds.

"Why are you looking at Mika, Yoongi?" I put back my gaze on the CD I'm holding when I heard Jisoo's voice behind me.

"I'm not looking at her." I simply said. I don't want to sound defensive so I just stop explaining.

"What music is that?" Jisoo went beside me and got the CD off my hold. She scan the CD I was holding. "The Beatles." She read it in strong Korean accent. I let her do that and left her there standing.

"Aish Min Yoongi!" she shouted when she find out I'm not beside her.

"Yah Kim Jisoo!" Jin hyung also shouted. This two Kims are so noisy. I walked near the cashier and look at the display CDs.

"You should listen to this, it's a ballad music. It helps you relax." Mika handed me a CD. I didn't look at the CD instead I just watch her puffy cheeks as she said that. She lifted her gaze at me and she smiled.

My heart is like having a parade, this is so not okay.

"I don't want ballad." I told her even though it's not true. I need to be cold right?

Her smile vanished into a thin line. She looked taken aback but she composed herself.

"Sorry, you should just look for some CDs that'll match your taste." she shyly said and she was about to walk away.

"Sorry I didn't mean to embarass you." she turn to me again and smiled. How can she smile like that?

"It's okay." she shyly answered with her thumbs up.

I want to smile at her cute gesture but I don't want to be soft in fron of her.

"Kim Jisoo, your brother is in our house." Jisoo tiredly walk near the cashier area to get her things, and she bid her goodbyes to Mika. She then look at me.

"Yoongi, won't you take me home?" Her heart-shaped mouth formed as she asked.

I shook my head, she bumped her shoulder at mine but since she is shorter than me it hit my arm. I mess her hair and her smile resurfaced again.

"Bye kid."

"I am not a kid! Just wait Yoongi, you will be starstruck to me." she lastly said and she exited the store. Jin hyung excused himself wanting to take Jisoo to their house safe and sound.

Now I'm left with Mika. Mika continued fixing the CDs based on their genre. For some people this kind of scene is boring but for me this is the best scene. Being alone with the girl you like. I like Mika for 3 years now. And every summer I want to see that emerald eyes she have. She's not a pure Korean, her mom is a German.

"You like ballad music?" I started a topic.

She nodded, still smiling.

This is harder than all my quizzes in school.

"You do know that Jisoo likes you right?" I was caught off guard by her question. I blink a couple of times, still processing her question in my mind. "But you like me." it was a whisper but enable for me to hear.

"No I don't like you I just-" I was in panic when I tried to explain but was cut when she talked again.

"Well that's great to hear because I don't like you too."

And for that, I clench my teeth and rolled my fists. She told me that while looking straight to my eyes. That was my first heartbreak, from the girl who have the emerald eyes that I admire.
