"Hello ? Are you here ?" She asked again.

I left my train of thoughts and came back to reality.

" What are you thinking ? Did he went deaf ? OH MY GOD ! I SHOULDN'T HAVE SCREAMED AT HIM !" She panicked dramatically.

" Ah ! You are too loud !" I said walking away.

" Oh ! My ! God ! You are alive !" she said excitedly.

" So you thought I was dead ?" I asked sitting down on the chair to continue eating the food.

" I don't ever want it to happen." She smiled as she sat in her seat. I looked at her smile and got reminded that I have been sent here for a mission.

" You make a big fuss of small things." I said eating my food.

" Small things are also important. But you shouldn't have given him the money. I would've paid him the money." She stuffed her mouth with food.

" See ? You cannot do it all alone. Financially supporting Jung kook, working and buying food for us and paying for things. It's all not easy." I tried to make her understand. She listened attentively and nodded on each word.

" So..." I said and grabbed her attention once again. " So I think we should do it together." I said seriously.

" Do what ?" she asked,dumbfounded.

" You know I'll help you in all this. Like today, I will pay half of the rent because you ain't taking money from me but I should pay the rent for staying here. Fair enough ?" I told her, getting back on the point.

" But --" She tried to speak but I cut her off.

" I ain't finished yet." She went silent. " Yeah. So I will pay for the rent. I'll cook for us. I will buy grocery and upgrade certain things in this house , Okay ?" I said. She raised her hand like a student does to question.

" What is it ?" I allowed her to speak.

" Why are you doing so much ?" She asked with curiosity.

" Have you looked around your house ? Literally everything is falling apart." I said bluntly.

" What do you mean ?" she asked feeling a bit offended.

" That television isn't even working." She turned around to look at the television. " This fridge is hanging somewhere between being alive and being dead." I continued and her gaze followed to the fridge. " The cabinets are almost empty which makes this house seems like a haunted place." She looked past me at the cabinets.

" ..and that heater is just dead in that corner." I pointed at the rusting heater. She looked at the heater and turned to me with a pout. " So now you see why I wanna upgrade the house ?" I asked her.
