my new family

The eldest

"oppa, we'll be back in an hour." y/n announced as she left to get some groceries with Namjoon. Their parents were abroad to support the major artists of the company in certain award shows and international fan-meets, it was basically a tour for them.

"hyung. Did you see my white shirt? I want to wear it for my date later."

"it's in laundry yoongi. It was stained in ketchup."

"Hyung. Jimin is giving chocolates to tannie." Taehyung urged to jin.

"jiminie, tannie will get rashes. We can't feed him sweets."

"hyung what do we have for lunch today?" Hoseok enquired.

"huh? Oh just chopping the veggies. I'll prepare after y/n and joon come back."

"oh! Can I get a coffee in the meanwhile?"

"prepare it hobi-ah."

"sorry hyung but I am working on the piece right now. You are free right? Thank you." Hoseok said and went out without waiting for the reply 'but, I am busy.' Jin mumbled and let the knife down to get the coffee done.

"You have time for coffee but you don't have time to stop jimin? Wow." Taehyung taunted and carried the itching yeontan to his room apply the relief gel to his pet.

'but I did tell him to stop.' Jin swallowed his words, not wanting to start an argument when taehyung needed to tend to yeontan.

"oh hyung, I'm hungry, can you get me some snacks?" Jungkook said from his room, where he was playing games. Jin took a packet of chips and carried it to jungkook's room, dropping by hoseok's room to give his coffee.

"you could have come yourself. And don't fill up, I'm cooking."

"yeah, yeah." Jungkook who was too engrossed in his game dismissed jin with a wave of hand.

Jin let out a sigh of disappointment. 'this ungrateful brat.' He tried to joke but he was hurt by their constant disrespect and ignorance.

"hyung! Give me my shirt." Yoongi shouted.

"huh. I thought at least he understood and respected me." Jin didn't blame them. He tried his best to make himself believe that this behaviour was caused by teenage hormones and they didn't mean to hurt him. But how long would it last. His patience had to run out at some point. He hung his head low and stepped in laundry room to get yoongi's shirt done.

He worked through his fever and ignored the way his body had been begging him to rest.

"here." He handed the shirt to yoongi.

"it wouldn't hurt to iron it you know?" yoongi said with a sour face and snatched the shirt from jin's hand before shutting the door in elder's face.

Tears brimmed in his eyes but he kept them at bay, blaming the rude behaviour on 'work stress'.

"they are taking longer." Jin said to himself. After he was done with the chopping and storing the vegetables, he looked at the time and realised that y/n and Namjoon are later than expected.

"let's see.....what do we have?" he searched through the cabinets and fridge to start preparing lunch in case there was further delay.

One hour in and he was ready to pour the batter into the moulds and just wait for them to turn into yummy brown shade, just as his brothers and y/n liked.

As he whipped the batter to smoothen it before pouring it in the mould, "bhoo!" jimin screamed behind him, scaring the light hearted man.

"ah!" he thankfully gathered himself before dropping the bowl. "yah! you can't do that to me." He scolded.
