WHISPER • Ji Changmin: The Boyz

02

Changmin didn't show up to the last three hours of the day and for some reason I was a little bit worried, even though I just met him today. The bell rang, dismissing the students from a long day of school. I packed my stuff and head to my locker.

As I was putting my stuff away I see someone stand besides me. "Do you need something?" I look up and see Jeno with a shy smile on his face. "I wanted to apologize for what I said earlier. I was angry so I couldn't control my mouth." Jeno looks down at the floor with an apologetic look on his face, but for some reason I felt off about it, but I just brush it off and close my locker. Then sling my bag over My shoulder. "I shouldn't be the one to receive an apology first. It should be Changmin. So when you do, let me know and I might consider forgiving you." I say before walking away.

"I'm home!" I yell as soon as I walk into the house. I expected to be greeted by my mom, but I wasn't. "She must be at work." I mumble to myself and head into the kitchen for something to drink. As I was filling up my cup with water I felt someone drape there arm over my shoulder, scaring me in the process. Out of instinct I elbowed the person hard on the side, then hearing a grown fallow after.

"Damn baby sis. Still feisty as ever." Shocked, I look at the person who I just elbowed and see my brother who I haven't seen in over 4 years since I was in the states. "Hyunjoon!" I excitedly hug my older brother and I see my mom walking into the kitchen with a smile on her face.

"When did you get here?" I say, letting go of Hyunjoon. "Near lunch time. I have the rest of today off so I figured I would spend it with you until I have to go on tour." He says and sits down at the table. "Wah, idle life. I could never."

"Well obviously, when you look like that no!" Hyunjoon jokes, making me grab the nearest object near me to hit him with, which happened to be a bag of bread. "Yah! Don't you dare mutilate my poor bread Nari!" My mom snatches the bag out of my hand and places it back on the counter.

"Dad said he'll be here in an hour then we can go out to eat or something." Our mom says and me and my brother just look at each other and roll are eyes. "I think we all know that isn't gonna happen. He'll probably fall asleep at work again." I say and Hyunjoon agrees with me. "Yeah your probably right." My mother says and sighs while looking out the window.

"Hey at least we can hang with Hyunjoon!" I say, trying to lighten up the mood which thankfully worked. "Yeah your right, we should go to the amusement park!" She says excitedly, after turning around to face us. "Uh mom, I don't think thats a good idea for Hyunjoon." I say and my brother just shrugs. "I'll just wear a hat and mask. If anyone recognizes me we just say its a hallucination and then shove them into a near by garbage can."

I slap my alarm clock and get ready for school with a groan. I take a shower, get dressed, do my hair and throw on some light makeup before heading downstairs. I walk into the kitchen seeing my brother cooking something on the stove. "Mom left for work already so I'm making you breakfast." He says, flipping what I assume is a pancake, with a spatula.

"Okay." I say, sitting down at the table then pulling out my homework from yesterday that I finished but I wanted to look over it one more time. "Nari, put that shit away. Enough with the double checking thingy you always do." My brother places a plate with some pancakes on it, in front of me then grabs my notebook, shutting it then pushing it to the side.

I just ignore him and start eating my pancakes. "So any new friends?" Hyunjoon asks then stuffing his face with a fork full of pancake. "Yeah actually. There apart of the school band which is pretty cool. There names are Gaon, Jungsu, Gunil, Jooyeon, Seungmin, and Junhan. There all really nice and Gunil reminds me of you." I say and Hyunjoon raises a brow at me. "And hows that?" He asks. "Simple. You both treat me like a 2 year old."

"But I can't help it your just so cute!" Hyunjoon places his hands on my cheeks and squishes my face while pouting. I lift up my fork pointing it at him and he quickly removes his hands from my face. "I'll stop."

Soon after we finish eating and me listening to him insist on driving me to school even though it's like a 15 minute walk, I gave up and just let him. I get into the passenger seat of the car and we head to school.

He pulls up to the school gates and thankfully know one was really paying attention. "Have a good day my dear sister! I'll miss you! Make sure to call me and message me while I'm on tour and if you need absolutely anything you let me know!" Hyunjoon smiles giving me a quick hug and I hug back. "I will, thank you." I let go of him and grab my bag, exiting the car. My brother waves before driving away and I turn around just to be met with the 6 males I befriended yesterday.

"You never told us your brother was Heo Hy-" I slap my hand over Jooyeon's mouth before he says anything further. "Do not tell anyone. I don't want people looking at me differently. So please keep this a secret between us and us only." I say pleading and they all nod. I remove my hand from Jooyeons mouth and he just quietly screams. "Oh my god, oH My gOd, Oh. my. god." Jooyeon just starts squealing like a little girl and I just sigh.

"Please don't think and treat me differently. I just wanna be seen as a regular girl. Not as a girl and her famous brother." I say quietly and Gaon wraps his arm around my shoulders. "Don't worry we won't. Jooyeon will get over it soon anyway. He's sleep deprived so when he actually gets sleep for once he'll probably think it was all just a dream." I laugh as we walked towards the school, but for some reason I felt like I was being watched. So I look around seeing students starring at me and whispering.

I began to feel anxious, thinking they saw me with Hyunjoon, but that thought was quickly thrown out the window when I over heard what one of the students said. "Don't you think it's weird how she just shows up and somehow manages to get Jeno to apologize to Changmin?" A girl spoke and her friend quickly agrees. "I know right! Jeno and Changmin have been enemies since like the beginning of time since both of there parents companies are like competing against each other for being the top company in Korea."

I hear Gaon scoff before speaking. I hardly doubt he apologized. That mans ego is to big for that kids brain to even think about apologizing." He says while rolling his eyes. "I think you might wanna take that back hyung. Check the schools news page." Jooyeon says before showing us a video on his phone.

Jeno makes his way over to Changmin who seems to be sleeping at his desk and taps the boys shoulder. Changmin looks up at Jeno rolling his eyes then leaning back in his seat.

"Dude I'm not in the mood to fight with you so get lost."

"I'm actually here to apologize." Jeno says catching Changmin off guard for a second but then he just scoffs.

"And why all of a sudden?" Changmin raises one of his brows and crosses his arms over his chest.

"Well I tried apologizing to the new girl, Nari. But she told me that I should be apologizing to you first. So I figured she was right. I'm sorry Ji Changmin."

Jeno leans down closer to Changmin, whispering something. Jeno pulls back with a innocent smile on his face as Changmin glares at him before angrily standing up and pushing past the boy, exiting the room.

So today was pretty eventful. I woke up because I fell out of bed, then tried going back to sleep but my brain apparently said no, then on my way downstairs I tripped, but I didn't hurt myself to bad which is a positive. I also ran into my door somehow and got my first bloody nose. So I decided to stay in my room and blankly stare at my wall 75 percent of my day because I didn't wanna be attacked by the world anymore.

But we good 👍🏼 I hope you guys had a good day or will have a good day!
