Coffee or Whiskey || Yoongi/Suga FF

XXXVIII - Escape

"Why did you stay? I can eat on my own. I have everything here." Y/N protesting but her voice is more of apologetic than annoyed.

"You might need something." Yoongi's short answer.

"Hmmm... Why won't you eat with me instead. I mean, you prepared a lot. This is enough for 4 people. A whole cake, hand of bananas, pot of porridge... Uhm, do I look like I eat a lot?"

"No... Uh... I'm sorry... I wasn't really thinking how much you would eat. I was just thinking of what you will need to eat." Yoongi answered and sat across Y/N.

Y/N got ready to stand up but Yoongi stopped her. "You need anything?" He immediately stood up and approached her.

"No. I - I was just going to get bowls for you." She answered a bit startled with how Yoongi acted.

"Oh, let me get that. Just sit there." he turned on his heels and went to the cupboard. He came back with bowl and soup spoon.

After carefully scooping for himself, he was about to go back to the seat across Y/N but she called him.

"Yoongi - uhm - Why won't you seat closer instead? I mean, you're on the other end of the table and the food's quite far from you."

Yoongi did not say anything but moved to the seat that is on Y/N's right side. "Do you feel better now?" He asked to break the awkward silence.

"uh, yes. Thank you." She answered stuttering this time.

Another awkward silence engulfed the dining table. "You want some cake?" Yoongi offered after seeing Y/N finish her second bowl of porridge.

"Ye-yes, please." She is stuttering again and it embarrasses her.

Yoongi came back with two clean plates for their cakes. They again ate silently until Y/N decided to break it. "Uhm, P- Uh - Yoongi... Thank you so much for today and sorry for all the trouble I caused you. I know I messed up your schedule again-"

"Stop. You did not do anything wrong. I know you acted the way you did because I did something wrong..." Yoongi answered while staring at his empty plate. He then looked at her and continued. "I think we have to talk."

'...have to talk..' Y/N thought 'Exactly what i am avoiding...'
"I think this is not the right time, yet. We have delayed your schedule so much since Day 1. We'll talk when we get back to the city." She stood up and walked towards the exit.

She saw Yoongi abruptly following her but she motioned him to stop. "I'm ok. I feel better. The meds Lin placed on my table is now taking it's effect. As much as I want to help with the cleaning, may I abuse your kindness for now? I want to rest."

Yoongi just nodded, unable to say anything. When did PA Lin go to his room again. And the meds? Was she referring to the one he left earlier?

He just watched Y/N walked out of the door. He knows she's lying when she said she's OK. But he decided not to press anymore. 'I've restored a bit of our connection. I'll let it be for now.' he thought to himself.

Or he thought so...

As soon as Y/N left the dorm, she dialed Sejin's number. Asked him a few questions, gave him some instructions and said goodbye. He went through his contacts again and called the number she's looking for...

"Mr. Jung, this is Y/N..."

***

When she reached her room, she's done with her phone calls. Lin was already there. She's another person Y/N has to talk to.
