I chased after Taehyung. "Yah! Taehyung! Wait up! Let's talk!" I yelled. He paused and turned around. "What is there to talk about? You got the girl!" he yelled back.
"Look, I'm sorry. But-" I began to say.
"It's fine! I told you already!" he sighed. "I hope you guys a happy relationship." he started to walk away again.
"Taehyung..." I grabbed his shoulder. He twisted around and grabbed my collar forcefully. "But this doesn't mean I'm giving up on her. The moment you break her heart, I will take her away from you. I'm warning you."
He let go, "Treat her well or get your face smashed." he growled.
"I will. I promise I won't ever break her heart." I smiled. "So save your fist."
He shook his head and walked into the distance. Grinning, I followed him.
The sky became dull. It was forecasted that it would rain tonight. I wonder where Minhee is. Does she have an umbrella?
"What are you thinking about?" Taehyung asked, holding a bag of drinks and snacks.
"Just thinking about Minhee." I replied, opening a can of drink.
"Are you boasting about your girlfriend? You bastard." he laughed.
I smiled at Taehyung. I'm so glad he's such a considerate and open minded guy. This is why he's my bestfriend.
"I should probably call Minhee to check on her right?" I mumbled to myself. I patted my pockets for my phone.
Opening the phone to call her, the brightness suddenly died. Beep beep. No more battery. I sighed in frustration.
I have to go charge my phone. "Can I use your phone?" I asked Taehyung.
"Sorry bro, I left it at home. Why?" he munched on some corn chips.
"I want to check to see if Minhee is okay." I responded.
"Why wouldn't she be okay?" Taehyung laughed. "She's tough as heck."
Nodding my head in agreement, I looked at the omnious sky anxiously.
100%
I pulled out the plug and opened my phone. The rain was thundering outside, drumming rhythmic beats on my window.
I dialed Minhee's number. Nobody answered. I called her again. And yet again, there was no response. Maybe she's busy?
Worry began to eat at my mind. I called her number again after ten minutes. Where is she?
Strutting around my room, I stressed about Minhee. Should I go over to her house? No...she didn't really like it the last time I intruded into her house. I don't want to upset her.
I picked up my phone and called her number once again. If she doesn't answer this I'll just go over to her place. I'll just tell her mother tha-
"Hi Jimin." A deep voice rumbled through the phone.
"Namjoon?" I asked, shocked. "Why do you have Minhee's phone?"
Rustling was heard in the background and a sound of hiccuping was heard. "Is that Minhee? Is she crying? What did you do to her?" Anger boiled up inside me.
"I didn't do anything to her. She's just still in a shocked state."
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" I shouted over the phone. I could hear frustration as he replied. "I told you. I didn't do anything!"
I don't believe this guy. Whatever made Minhee cry was probably because of this despicable guy.
"Just shut up." A familiar voice said in the background. My eyes widened in recognition.
"Minhee?" I called.
"Yes it is Minhee." Namjoon answered.
"I want to talk to her." I said.
I heard shuffling and some distant mumblings that weren't audible.
"She doesn't want to talk to you." he replied, almosy happy sounding.
I was confused. Why?
"Why not? Minhee. Tell me what happened. Minhee! Answer me please! I need to know what happened to you!" I cried desperately.
"I told you, she doesn't want to talk to you, so stop trying. She won't reply." Namjoon's voice responded.
"Just shut your mouth." I snapped at him. "Give the god damn phone to her."
"She says no. Quit it. You're being annoying."
"Forget it. Tell me your location. I'm coming to find you guys." I said irritably.
"No. I'm not telling. Minhee told me not to tell you. You're annoying as heck, you'll be a nuisance when you come."
"Yah! What did you say? Who's a nuisance? Just you wait! I beat the shit out of you, do you hear me? Do you-"
Namjoon hung up on me.
"Yah! YAH!" I shook the phone, continuously screaming into the phone.
"Shut up! You're noisy!" my sister yelled from outside my room. "I can't even find peace at night now." she complained loudly, her voice fading as she shut her door.
Where are they? What happened to Minhee? Why doesn't she want to see me?
I called up Taehyung. "Hey did you hear from Minhee perhaps?" I asked.
"No? Why? Did something happen? Did you break her heart already?" he asked, voice rising as he listed possibilites of what happened.
I explained."She's with Namjoon and she's not willing to talk to me for some reason. I don't what happened to her. Call her for me."
There was silence on the other side of the line. "You know what. Come over to my place. You can probably sleep over. I'll inform my mum."
- 20 minutes later -
"So what's this deal about? Minhee's not talking?" Taehyung went on. I told him the details.
"I'll try calling her." he frowned, a genuine frown creased on his face.
He put the phone on speaker.
"Hi." A soft voice answered.
"Minhee?!? Do you know how worried I was? What happened to you? Why are you with Namjoon? Did something bad ha-"
"I remember now. I know who you are"
"What?" Taehyung froze. "Say that again." He hit his ears a few times, not believing what she said.
"I said, I remember now. I know who you are. I remember everything."
I mouthed at him, "What does she mean?" He didn't reply. He was too dazed to even reply.
"You...remember?" he asked slowly.
"Yes. That day...you were the boy...on the rooftop at my school. The one who grabbed me and woke me up."
Taehyung sniffled. "She remembers..."
Tears began to form in his eyes. "You finally remembered..."
I could hear Minhee sniffling on the phone as well. I looked at Taehyung. He was smiling more brightly than ever. I've never seen him so happy.
He wiped away his snot and tears. "So...what happened today?"
She didn't answer.
"I-I..." It was like she couldn't reply, when suddenly, the sound of the phone being snatched away was heard.
"Look. She's fine so don't bother her anymore. She's tired." Namjoon said. His voice made my fists itchy for a hit.
"What makes you so special? Why are you even with her? Where are you two?"
Namjoon snickered. "You don't need to know." Sounds of protesting came from behind him. "Just be quiet," he said to Minhee. "You have to rest. It has been a tiring day for you. Just go."
"Well...we'll see you two tomorrow and Minhee can explain thoroughly about what happened. You two rascals will probably die of guilt."
"Shut up." Minhee's voice groaned and the phone seemed to drop onto the ground with whinces of Namjoon.
"You can wriggle on the ground for a while before you sleep." Minhee calmly said to him.
I smiled. Minhee, that girl was sure special.
"Goodnight, Taehyung...thanks for everything." she picked up the phone and spoke.
"Goodnight Minhee." Taehyung nodded and placed his phone onto his bedside table.
The call ended.
