Lee Jiyoon

Wow! I didn't know Yoongi was this close to his grandma. I never read anything about her. That's some good implementation of privacy protection. Now I feel more stalker-ish than I did before.

"Come on in." Ordered the grumpy guy.

Seriously! Why was he acting bitchy all of a sudden, he was fine before we boarded the bus. Don't tell me it was because of the drool thing! Was he regretting bringing me with him? After all he already has a lot on his plate and I was only adding to his burdens.

"You have a cute house ma'am." I told his grandma as I stepped into the tiny living room. The house was warm and cosy. After entering through the main door, there was this little entryway where we removed our footwear. Yoongi again placed a pair of home slippers in front of me.

"Cute? I guess you could call it that." She smiled at me as she closed the colorful sliding glass door of the entryway. "Take a seat."

I followed Yoongi's actions and sat down on the floor in front of the square low table on my right. There was kitchen right in front of where we sat, it was a mess, bits and pieces of food everywhere. On the left there was a couch placed in front of a TV which had heaps of clothes on it. The house looked like it was hit by a natural disaster.

"How did you get hurt dear?" His grandma asked with genuine concern as she sat in front of us.

"I was--"

"She got hurt while trying to save me from a car accident." Why does he keep answering for me?

"WHAT!!" She gasped loudly. "How come? Are you okay my child?" She immediately came near Yoongi and examined him.

"I'm fine. Thanks to her. But she got hurt pretty badly and she doesn't even have a place to go. So can she please stay here halmoni*?"
(*Halmoni= grandmother.)

"What- what about her family?" She looked at me with pity.

"They are not here. They are in another country." I stated. Well it was the truth. My family must be out there right now along with a little me and a little...

"You can stay here. For as long as you want." Woah! That's it? What happened while I zoned out for a second there? She just agreed to let a stranger stay in her house. Just like that? No more explanation?

"Huh?" I replied with surprise written all over my face.

"Yes Jiyoon-ah*. I can call you Jiyoon right? You're Yoongi's friend so no need for formalities. You can also call me comfortably like Yoongi does. By the way did you live abroad? You have a weird accent."
(*-ah= suffix often added to emphasize you calling out to someone.)

"Yes she came to Korea only a few months back. Since everything is settled now I'm going to sleep. It was a really long day, I'm way too tired. Goodnight halmoni." Yoongi yawned out as he tiredly stood up.
