"Jackson?!", i look back at him shocked.

"lunaaa", he smiles giving me a hug.

"oh, what brings you here", i quickly fumble through my desk hiding my phone and book.

"what, i can't meet my little sister? do i need a reason", he scratches his head confusedly.

"i- no, i was just surprised, please let me know when you're coming next time", i sigh leading him to the living room.

"Alright then, i bought food", he grins making me unknowingly smile.

"i heard you hit your head hard during your little vacation, you okay", he asks while setting the food.

the dead body came into my mind making me freeze.

"i- yeah I'm healthy and fine, it wasn't that bad anyway", i grab my chopsticks slurping on my ramen.

"ooh, the food is delicious, eomma really is the best", i sigh in contentment, cherishing it.

"yeah but your face says otherwise", he slurps loudly making me frown.

"what do you mean, eomma's cooking is the best", i justify.

"yeah , i know that but your face looked troubled and uneasy, something going on", he looks directly at me making me gulp hardly.

"see i know if something happened to you, i have been living with you for over 15 years, don't think you can fool me", he doesn't look at me, munching on the chicken.

"i- well...okay", i set my food on the table looking directly at him.

"okay..so..i-", why can't i form words dammit.

"Take your time, ill listen".

"okay, so jimin..confessed to me", i felt him freeze as his ramen stood near his mouth, not moving.

"ha..i guess i should've seen this coming", he sighs sipping on his beer.

"its not really surprising, i knew that boy had feelings for you".

"yeah...but i feel conflicted, i..don't know", i scratch my hair troubled.

"oh, i thought you felt the same", he glanced at me momentarily.

"no..i- i like him...but not in that kind of way", i look down seeing his widened eyes.

"and well, he didn't take it well", i fiddled with my fingers.

"so what? he should respect your choices, it's his fault if he gets angry or upset about it", Jackson rose from his seat angrily.

"nooo", i groaned," he didn't get angry or violent, he was just upset and he hasn't attended college since our trip", i poke the little tapioca balls at the end of the boba tea.

"and i...miss him.i don't want to lose him over something like this, i bite back my tears.

" i want things to go back to how it used to".the nerves in my nose tingled as i let a tear fall on my cheek.

"its okay, its not your fault". Jackson rose from the couch hugging me instantly.

"i know, but ...i just don't know what to do and how to resolve it", i hugged him back feeling comfortable in his embrace.

"see, how about you go to jimin's house, to see how he's doing", Jackson suggested after pulling away going back to his ramen.

"But why should i go", i wiped my tears,  clearly not liking it, he was being petty and not coming to college.
