A/N Double update !!

=================================================

The sun rays hit her skin as she made her way out of the bus, into the small path which she used to run on to get home. She looked around the surrounding and smiled at the unchanged image that she had in her head since years ago. The house at the end of the path greeted her and she ran towards it with a giggle.


Jin unlocked the door with the key that she kept and she coughed at the dust that gave out as soon as she opened the door revealing the untouched furniture that were covered in white cloth. After placing her bag on the bed in the one bedroom house, she grabbed some clothes out and had a quick shower before getting out of the house.

Adjusting the snapback on her head, she walked out again into another path that was close by. She stared at the path filled with long grass and took long strides to reach the place that she wanted to visit. The cemetery.


She looked around for the number that she noted down on her palm.

"There you are" she said and cleared the tombstone from the grasses and knelt down. She stared at the two names before her and smiled, "I'm sorry for not visiting sooner. I hope you forgive me" she looked around and noticed that she forgot to bring flowers.

Jin chuckled lowly, "it seems like I did not change at all. Still the clumsy me in front of both of you" she took a deep breath and a deep heartbreak hit her. "I miss you so much. I'm sorry for taking seven years to come back home. I should have came back last year and the year before, I should have made an effort to come every year. I'm sorry for not being the child to be proud of." tears fell down, wetting the grasses and she wipe her cheeks quickly.

"But I am finally here, alone" she tried to smile in front of her parents. "One day, I will bring your son in law and maybe your grandchild to visit you" she smiled wider, knowing that her parents are laughing up there. "How are you feeling? I'm sorry for being a weak child down here but I promise that I will be stronger than I have ever been"


The conversation continued until the sky started to look gloomy and she said her goodbye for the day. Jin took long steps to exit the place and slowed down as she reached the path back home. It was quiet since most of the people that used to live in there moved to the city or maybe somewhere else.

She got in and walked to the kitchen with a packet of noodles that brought with her. "Two weeks with noodles?" she laughed at her silliness and turned the stove on to boil the water. Just then, an image of Mingyu appeared in her head and she smiled.

Are you just going to have noodles? You are going to become a noodle instead of pizza.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dinner finished and they all returned back into their rooms after a long ride from the city back to house. "Chan use the shower first" Seungcheol said and started assigning the turns to the rest since they did not have enough showers for everyone. "Definitely the eldest grandpa" Seokmin teased and earned a hit from Seungcheol.


Junhui sat on his bed after a shower and began to contemplate whether to tell Mingyu about Jin's feelings. After a few seconds, Mingyu walked past and he pulled him in a swift second. "Yah what's wrong?" Mingyu pulled his hand away from Junhui's hold and stared at him.

"I need to tell you something" Junhui told him and looked outside before closing the door slowly. "You don't have to close the door. Are you hiding something from the rest of the guys?" Mingyu asked and his eyes widened.

"Don't try to come out of the closet, hyung. You can do better" Mingyu covered himself with his hands and leaned on the wall away from Junhui who just crossed his arms and rolled his eyes until it was about to fall off. "Even if I'm gay, I won't be gay for you. You're a pabo" he said and Mingyu sighed in relief and sat on the bed.


He looked at his hyung and waited for him to start. "So?" he said and Junhui cleared his throat. "It's about Jinhee" he started and Mingyu sat straight.

"Do you know where she went?" Mingyu asked.

Junhui shook his head with a frown, "I just told her to take some time off to herself to relax her mind in the holidays. She didn't tell me where she will go and I also didn't know she wouldn't join us" he told Mingyu who just sat there and started to think as well.

"Actually, I didn't call you here for that"

Mingyu nodded to tell him to continue. "You know that Jin has moved on right?" Mingyu nodded again.

"She's falling in love with someone. Actually, its you. If you're asking why she didn't tell you, it's because she didn't want you to be her rebound or make you feel that you're a rebound" Junhui said straight to the point and waited for his reaction.


"I know" Mingyu said in a low voice and Junhui's eyes widened. "How?" he became confused.

"She kind of confessed during her sleep that night at Seungcheol hyungs place but ever since that day it seemed like she was avoiding me" he frowned as he told Junhui.

"Maybe she wanted to figure out if you're really a rebound or if she's really in love with you" Junhui tried to comfort him. "Do you know where she used to stay before moving to Seoul?" Mingyu asked only to receive a shrug. "I don't think she talked about her hometown before"


Junhui looked at Mingyu, "do you like her?" he asked and the younger looked up at him with a frown. "Heck no. I love her, I always have." he whispered and Junhui nodded, "it wouldn't have been like this if you didn't confess back then"


His words made Mingyu groan and he fell on his back on the bed, "but she was in love with hyung back then. I don't blame her for making me wait, she is worth the wait. She definitely is. Seeing her smile just makes my day even if Wonwoo hyung was the one who placed that smile on her face. I just want her to be happy"


"Will you hate me if I told you to leave?" Junhui asked and Mingyu raised his eyebrows at him. "Leave her" he got up from the bed slowly.

"No. If I asked you to get a ticket and leave Jeju to find Kim Jinhee"

"I will do what ever I can to bring her back to my arms, if that makes her happy" Mingyu said in a soft voice and Junhui nodded, "I'll call my guys to find her and you can get her"

"Thanks hyung"

He got out of his room and made a call to his dad. Mingyu walked back to his room and stared at the sky filled with stars.


"I know you're staring at the same sky Jinhee. Please don't give up on me yet. I'll come get you soon. I promise"
