YUJIN



After dinner, I decided to help Jake by washing the dishes but accidently broke a plate. At least I tried to help, not my fault the plate was slippery. So then, Jake took over the job of washing the dishes and Niki went to their shared bedroom and I went to my bedroom. I sat on my study table and took out my laptop to work on some medical report papers.

Jake entered my room instead of his own, telling me "I want to spend some time with my sister too you know? It's not like we meet everyday." well it's valid, and I kind of miss him too I guess? He made himself comfortable on my bed (the audacity) and took out his phone, scrolling on it. Remember when he said he wanted to spend time with me? Yeah I don't remember too. I silently started working on the papers and only talked with him when he asked me anything. 

It's been two hours and I finally move from my chair to see Jake still on my bed, scrolling soundly. "Oh.....you're still here."

"Excellent observation." Jake replied.

"Are you going to leave?" I asked.

Instead of replying to my question, he snuggled up my blanket and made clear signs that he wasn't going to leave any time soon. I closed my books and laptop and plopped myself on the bed with him, challenging him if he could stay here any longer. I raise my legs and keeping one on top of him and the other one kicking his flat ass. I could feel his bones, damn.

Just as I was about to throw the biggest gut shrinking insult on him, I heard a knock on the door. It was Niki for sure since no other ghost lives here except for us. But oh, I was so wrong. The door opened and revealed the intruder to be himself as Park Sunghoon. I know him because he is my brother's closer friend. Damn he looks good even though he is in shorts and a simple white t-shirt. 

I quickly got up and fixed my hair, and immediately we made an eye contact, but breaking it as soon as Niki got in front of me, blocking my view from Sunghoon. Jake asked Sunghoon, "Why are you here? Weren't you busy practicing basketball with Heeseung?" to which Sunghoon replied, "I came here to see your sister, since I heard from Niki that she is pretty good-looking, but I got to admit- she really is beautiful." Sunghoon came to see me? And Niki talked about me to him? This is getting hot.

Sunghoon diverted his attention back to me and introduced himself, "Hi, I'm Park Sunghoon. It's really good to see you." and gathering up the words to speak without shuttering, I said "Hey, I'm Sim Yujin. I feel honored to meet you too. Jake talks a lot about you." I simply added the last sentence, hoping to make the conversation work.  His gaze softens at the mention of his bestfriend speaking about him to his sister, "Then I guess you know me well enough. Wanna hang out sometimes-" Sunghoon didn't get to finish his sentence when Niki butt-in and cut him off, "Hyung, let's go see the other members and talk about our new album." 

Sunghoon diverted his attention from me to Niki and nodded in agreement, bid me a goodbye and went off but oh I did notice, Niki looking at me for some seconds before moving out with Sunghoon. What was his problem? I wanted to hang out with Sunghoon too. As they left the house, Jake nudged my shoulder. "Do you like him?" "Who?" "Sunghoon, you seemed pretty focused on him." He wiggled his eye-brows. "I like no one, I have no time for pointless relationships and nor I am interested in him. Now end the topic before I pair you up with fifty other old women." I brushed off, kind of upset that Jake thought I liked his best friend.

I do not, in fact, believe in love at first sight.

And then it kind of hit me, Jake is being nice to me? Very suspicious. "You're being nice to me. Why?" I asked. "Well I have many enemies, but I'm running pretty low on friends." he said. Ah, it made sense, I mean imagine being friends with a flat ass who got layla's fur all over him. No shit. But hey, at least I'm getting no headaches right now, basically my win. "Well baby sister, you should sleep and tomorrow me and the boys can show you around the city." Jake said as he got up from the bed and walked towards the door. 

"Sleep tight, and if you need anything, don't call me." gurl- nevermind, it's pointless arguing with him anyway. "Yeah whatever, now shoo, I need my beauty sleep." I forced him out my bedroom and locked the door and got ready for bed. I have been so tired that I fell asleep as soon as I closed my eyes and that's how I ended day one. Safe and alive.

It's the next morning at 5:30 when I open my eyes. It's pretty early but I need to make a habit of waking up early. I got up and brushed my teeth and drank a glass of water, because my dry larynx won't let me speak properly. I did some morning pilates and undressed my pajamas to hop into the shower. It was 7:15 when I got off my shower and got ready for the day. I went out my bedroom to see no one. Were they still asleep? I thought idols woke up early to start practicing early.

I made myself some scrambled eggs and some coffee. I was eating peacefully when I got a text from my friend, Yon-ha. She is one of my Korean friends and I opened the chat to see what she was on about.

Yon-ha:
hey, did you make it safe here? 

Yujin:
yeah I did lol, seems pretty much okay to me till now.

Yon-ha:
Don't worry you will get used to it.

Yujin:
I hope so, btw was there anything you wanted to tell me?

Yon-ha:
girl yeah, me and Haein are planning to hang out right now, and we wanted to invite you too. Would you like to join us?

Yujin:
hell yeah, yk i've been dying to hang out with u guys.

Yon-ha:
great, then meet us at the central park, we will be there.

Yujin:
alright.


And so, I desperately started searching for Jake's car keys and wallet. Come on, I need it right now. I found the keys and wallet and I was good enough to go. But before I even reached the front door, the voice of my nightmare called out for me.

"Where are you going?" Jake....

"Nowhere!"

"Nowhere doesn't requires car keys- wait what is that?" he looks at his wallet in my hands and I freeze.

"Nothing!"

"Well nothing looks like my wallet. Where did you even get that!?"

"Oh come on, I just want to hang out with my friends. I know them well enough!" I tried explaining, not like I needed to. "Will there be any boys?" he asked and I shook my head and replied, "There will be no boys, just two of my girl friends." Just when I tried defending myself, Niki entered at the scene like a hero in my eyes. He was wearing black parachute pants and a racer jacket with a inner wear as his inner cloth. God he makes me drool, bro got good fashion style. 

I looked at Niki with pleading eyes and I just know he heard our conversation by the look on his face. But what I heard was not what I expected. "Hyung, I'm free the whole day, if you don't mind I can go with her to keep an eye. If that's okay with you of course." Jake looked at Niki as he just won a war and fist bumped him. "Niki, I love you bro, please take care of my sister. She can be a pain in the ass but don't leave her anywhere alone." I can't believe Jake is saying that.

I looked at Niki with disbelief in my eyes and he just raised his eye brow at me while smirking. This man will bring me to my deathbed. "Well what are we waiting for Yujin? You have a hangout, remember?" Niki said and I sigh, accepting my defeat. "Take care guys, and Yujin, don't trouble Niki." I stick my tongue out to Jake and close the door behind me as me and Niki move out. I face him and spew out the words.

"I hate you."

"Why? I'm lovely."

God, either give me patience or a loaded handgun.
