"We can't trust them!" I brought Namsu to a corner when the brothers turned their back on us to clean the oldest wounds and injuries.

She rolled her eyes. "You don't trust anyone, Jin!" This girl was already considering having them join our journey.

"Do you think we can trust people in a world like this?!" Both our voices gradually increased and I wasn't sure the boys weren't hearing us anymore.

She crossed her arms on her chest. "Yes! Yes, I think we can! And if you get betrayed, you get up and you go trust people again. If they betray you again, you get up and trust others, once again!" For a moment, I didn't know what to answer. Because what she just said was freaking stupid.

She was too naive. She was clearly not mature enough to understand anything about life.

"You're a kid, you know nothing about life." I started to walk away. I was tired of hanging out with a baby.

She shook her head. "I don't care what you say. I'm going to trust them." She walked past me to the next room and I only noticed now the Jimin guy leaning on the door frame. He wasn't bleeding anymore, bandages covered the wounds I inflicted on him.

He smiled and shook his head almost amusingly. "I know how siblings are." I already wanted to rip this perfect smile off his plump chapped lips.

"She's not-" I stopped and sighed. It sounded so stupid, but this word was hard to say, burning the inside of my mouth every time it was rolling off my tongue. "She's not my sister." I quickly said, looking down. The apartment was empty, it had probably already been pillaged a long time ago.

"My bad." I took that as an apology. He crossed his arm on his chest, not leaving his position. "I heard you. I don't trust you either. But I think it'd be great if Jungkook gets to spend a bit of time with other people. Plus a girl, it's better." He laughed, making his cheekbones raise and his eyes disappear.

I definitely didn't like how he talked. My hands closed into fists and my jaw clenched. "He better not touch her."

"Is she your girlfriend?" He felt guilty for a moment, ready to uncross his arms.

"What!!?" My heart raced. I felt frustrated, why would he think such a thing?! "Of course not," I said, faking the calmness in my tone.

"Then what's the problem?"

"Open that little mouth of yours one more time and I'll pull your white teeth out one by one."

That was a menace. But the man just laughed it off, as if what I said was funny. He was underestimating me.

Argh, he was pissing me off!!! He always thought he knew better. I knew I was younger, I knew I lived not the half he did. But it didn't mean I was stupid for goodness sake!

"Are you okay?"

I lifted my head to meet two round black doe eyes and froze at the unexpected presence. I was so pissed I just walked around the empty apartment and entered the bathroom, occupied by the boy.

"Oh. I'm sorry." I was about to get out but his cute smile stopped me.

"No, stay." I looked at him. "I mean if you want."
