Almost like back then (JJK fanfic)

Chapter 34

***A few days later***

I'm sitting in my assigned room watching a TV series when I get a text from Jimin.

<JM. Where are you?? You haven't been home for days.>

<Me. And I won't be for a while. I'm going back to college.>

I answer him and put my phone down, but after a moment Jimin texts again.

<JM. It's still summer break tho. Where are you now??>

I smile and answer.

<Me. I'm everywhere, but nowhere.>

<JM. Huh?? Both your brothers and Grace said they didn't know where you were.>

I smile and say to myself: "I know, I told them to answer that." I then answer Jimin.

<Me. I won't tell you where I am, because then you'll go here.>

<JM. Of course I'll go there.....I'm worried about you.>

<Me. No need. I'm fine. I'm in a place where I'm taken care of, so I'm fine.>

<JM. :/ Really?>

<Me. Really.>

<JM. When does school start for you??>

<Me. September 1st....duh.><JM. Of course.....well okayy....wait a few minutes, I'll be free and then I'll call you.>

<Me. I won't pick up.>

<JM. Choi Min Lee, either answer the calls or I'll come to you. I'll find you, I promise. So you better pick up.>

<Me. But I don't wanna... :(>

<JM. Min Lee, don't make me do this. Don't make me look for you now...cause I will.>

I put my phone aside and lie down. I take a deep breath and then go to the bathroom and take a quick shower. When I come out of the bathroom, wrapped in a towel, someone calls me. I sigh because I assume it's Jimin. I walk over to the bed and pick up the phone, and without even looking at the caller ID, I pick it up.

However, to my surprise, it's a Facetime call. And Jimin isn't alone. He has all the other guys behind him, including Jungkook. I freeze and then turn off the camera. I say, "Yah, Park Jimin. Why didn't you tell me you weren't alone? And why are you video calling?" Jimin says, "If you had read my messages, you would know. But you didn't. So it's your own fault."

I throw the towel away and start to get changed, and in the meantime I ask, "What do you want??" Jimin says, "Yeah, I missed you too." I sigh and say, "Of course I missed you. But what do you want from me now?? I'm not going back home, so you can't even count on that."Jimin replies, "Don't worry, I already gave up." After a few seconds, I put my phone on the shelf and turn the camera back on, trying to ignore Jungkook in the background. I start to put my hair in a ponytail and Jimin and the guys talk to me.

Suddenly, the door to my room opens and Min Seok appears. I gesture for him not to speak, then I ask the guys, "Do any of you understand Japanese? Or English??" Jimin says, "Taehyung can speak Japanese fluently and Jin can too. What??" I say, "gotcha." Then I turn to Min Seok and ask in English, "Hey, what's up?" He immediately understands and asks back, "What's wrong??"I speak in English, "I was talking to my friends. Right, Jimin??" Jimin says, "Uh..yeah. But what's going on? I'm so distracted." I ask, "Sorry, did you want something??" Min Seok says in English that the food is ready. I smile and say thank you, and that I'll be right there.
