CHAPTER 8: A Friend In Need
It hadn't stopped raining since yesterday night. I finally got up from my position at the door and looked out the window wondering what Jimin was doing now and if he ever wanted to see me again.
"How did you manage to fuck things up this badly?" I kept muttering to myself under my breath. No matter how many times I replayed the scene in my head I hated myself even more because even though it was an accident it's as if I had reopened his wound that had barely healed in the first place and rubbed salt into it. But no matter how shitty I felt I couldn't strive away from my duties, I had to go tell the manager everything and help clean up. The conversation with my manager ended after an hour. He kept saying how sorry he was and that he will change my shift time to earlier hours in my convenience. He also insisted that I took the next few days off and he would take care of everything. It was actually kind of a relief because I wasn't really in the mood to see anyone but Jimin; I was more worried about him than anything else.
"Maybe I should take a walk," I said to myself. It could help clear my mind I guess. I headed to the bathroom to wash my puffy face when there was another knock at the door.
"Jimin" I whispered in excitement as I ran back to the door and scramble to open it, only to be smacked in the face with the reality that it wasn't going to be him.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU LAZY ASS" Rianna yelled out as she popped a part popper in my face, to which I did not react to at all. Who am I kidding this wasn't a movie; Jimin wasn't coming back.
"It's only what, 7:30am. How does that make me a lazy ass? Besides Saturday mornings are meant for sleep" I spat back.
"Well someone's a bit of a grouch today, guess it's the weather. Or maybe it's because I didn't plan anything special enough for you. Well fear not that's why I'm here now, so we can spend the whole day celebrating " she leaned in to hug me but I just pushed her arms away. She was perkier than usual, I don't know what happened to her last night but I'm cursing it with all my heart.
"I'm not really in the mood today if you can't already tell. Actually that doesn't matter because all you need to know is that I'm not going out tonight." Rianna was good at hiding her emotions but I could tell she was a little hurt by my words. Not wanting to say anything more that was mean I began to walk away from her but no surprise she ran in front of me and stopped me.
"Laura what happened to you? Is it something you want to talk about?"
"I'm fine, just get out of my way," I could tell my expression wasn't matching my words.
"You think I'm an idiot, of course you're not fine" she was really starting to bug me now.
"Can't you just leave me alone?" I yelled my tone sounding angrier.
"To hell I won't, I can see it in your face you've been crying. You maybe stubborn but don't think that will stop me. You're one of my best friends and I'm not going to leave you scrunched up in a ball, sad for whatever reason especially on your birthday. Now tell me what damn well happened so I can help you"
"IT WAS HIM, PARK JIMIN! THE SAME DAMN PARK JIMIN YOU WENT TO UNI WITH. THE ONE WHO'S SISTER WAS MURDERED. HE HATES ME AND I DON'T EVEN BLAME HIM BECAUSE ITS JUST ALL MY FUCKING FAULT" I broke down into tears again and let my head drop into her shoulder, it felt good to finally release this. I ended up telling her what had happened: about the attack, the sex, Park yuri, everything. She also ended up telling me about her night yesterday. We spoke for about three hours straight and it helped lift my mood. I remembered Rianna had gone to Yuri's funeral so she knew where she had been buried. Not too far from here actually, about a twenty-minute walk.
"So when are you seeing this Jungkook guy again" I asked in a teasing voice. Jungkook had been the "douche mechanic boy" she met yesterday. She flushed red.
"Well he texted me and I replied the next time my car broke down I would call him so he can recommend a good mechanic to go to" she stared down at her hands and just smiled to herself, she must really like this guy.
"But since he fixed it I guess he won't be coming down for ages then". I said.
"Well I guess I've got a long wait ahead of me, besides it was only sex. As much as I would like I don't know if he would want to push the relationship further. Anyway, forget this I'm going to go to the loo and then after we can have a girl's night in. That okay?" I nodded to her and she smiled back. I'm glad she came over, but I knew what I had to do to help her. Typing in her passcode I went into her phone and began to text Jungkook.
"Hey Jungkook, bad news my engine's gone bust again and my car is virtually useless. I know you're in the next city over but would you mind coming down today and taking another look? I will tell you the address to meet me at. Hopefully I will see you there at around 4/5pm today? Thank you so much xxx". I ended up texting the guy my address, since Rianna and I were staying in at my house. I quickly put her phone back onto the bed in the same position as it was before.
"You ready for a whole day of doing absolutely nothing?" She beamed at me.
"Hell yes! Let me get you a pair of PJ's and we can start the laziest 21st birthday in history". Although I was happier than before the thought of Jimin still lingered on in my mind.
