MY Sweet Interlude

16- The Talk

Aliya did her usual weekend chores including the laundry when she woke up. She threw in some fruits and vegetables in her blender and made herself a smoothie for her late brunch after her routine spin workout. She had a crazy night with Yoongi and despite of her body aches, she can't miss a workout. She checked her phone and saw Jia had posted updates about their trip. They're in Venice and she looked at their happy faces in all their pictures. Taehyung looks contented and having a time of his life, she bit her lower lip as the familiar pain in her chest came followed by the heavy lump in her throat. She liked Jia's post and left a comment about them looking happy followed by three heart emojis.

Her phone buzzed, it was Jihyun asking how she was and if their plan for lunch is still good. She said yes for the lunch and then added she's just resting and doing chores for today. She didn't tell him how her night went after he left last night of course. Her phone buzzed again and it was from Jimin telling her they'll do their talk today if she's free. She said she was and he replied that he and Jungkook are coming in an hour. They told her not to bother with food because they'll take care of it. Aliya suggested to get some beer too if they're drinking because she was out.

Aliya took advantage of the time by taking a quick shower. It didn't take long when her doorbell rang which signaled the arrival of Jimin and Jungkook. They had their arms full of food and beer.

"Wow, that's a lot." Aliya commented as they came in.

"Jk and I are both really hungry. We had brunch and then had nothing after that." Jimin explained as he laid the bags of take-out food he was carrying on the dining table.

"Your dates got you too busy to eat?" Aliya teased with a small smile on her face.

"It wasn't exactly like that." Jungkook replied sheepishly.

"Let me guess, you guys woke up late, so you had brunch and then got busy again so now you're hungry. Are you guys into kinky stuff like switching partners?" Aliya asked with a giggle.

"Ya, watch your language." Jimin told her tsking and shaking his head at her.

"Watch my language? What's wrong with what I said? I can talk dirty too fyi." Aliya replied which earned another hard look from her friend. If these guys only knew what happened the past night with Yoongi.

"So what do you know about talking dirty?" Jungkook asked chuckling.

Before Aliya could even open her mouth, Jimin spoke again. "Don't bother answering 'coz I don't want to hear it."

"I really hope you guys will stop acting like you're talking to a ten year old. I am an adult now and I am capable of doing things more than you guys think." Aliya knew exactly when to close her mouth because Jimin already have stopped unpacking the food and was just glaring at her.

"Maybe we will start our talk now." He said folding his arms before him.

"Really now?" Jungkook complained as he looked at the food on the table. "Can't that wait after we eat?"

"You can eat now, I'll eat later." He replied as he stared at Aliya.

"I thought you were hungry." Aliya is unfazed by Jimin's anger. They've been having arguments like these since they were in middle school, so she was used to it.

"I'll live. Are you hungry?" Jimin asked. He had that sweet side of him that'll always surface no matter how angry he was.

Aliya smiled at him. "I'll live too." She walked towards Jimin and touched his arms since they were still crossed in front of him. "Come on, what is this thing that you wanted to talk about Yoongi. I already told you guys, I know exactly what I am getting into."
