Typical

Chapter 8

Flashback

The 7 years old Jihae was playing her piano in her garage. Playing piano was her hobby and she improved a lot. She had won a lot of trophy from many kinds of piano contests. She wasn't from a rich family, but she was still rich enough to buy a very simple piano.

She once had a brother. Big brother. His age was 15 years old, his name is Lee Yoongi.

Unfortunately, Yoongi died in a car accident. Everyone in the family was extremely sad, especially Jihae. Yoongi and Jihae was really close. He was the one who taught her how to play piano.

"YAH, LEE JIHAE!" Her sister, Lee Minyoung, shouted when Jihae was still playing her piano.

"What?! You disturbed my play!"

Minyoung was 5 years older than Jihae and 3 years younger than Yoongi.

"How long would you stay in here playing that garbage piano?! Get out and get a life, stupid kid!"

If any of you guys asked why did Jihae like Yoongi more than Minyoung.. as you can see, Minyoung was always being so mean and rude to Jihae.

"I have a piano contest for the next 2 days! I have to practice," she said as she rolled her eyes.

"Lee Jihae! Why would you still go to that piano contest when Yoongi oppa has already gone?! No one can teach you now, stupid!"

Jihae felt all of her emotions mixed in her body. She either felt angry, sad, disappointed, or anything but happy. Her eyes started to get teary, but she tried to hide it. She was really sensitive if someone talked about his brother, especially Minyoung talked about it in inappropriate way.

Jihae took a deep breath. "Eonni, even Yoongi has gone, why should I stop playing piano? I'm doing this for Yoongi oppa! I want to win this for him, because he was the one who taught me how to play the piano. He would be happy in his place."

Minyoung rolled her eyes and slammed the garage door. Jihae was left alone and she sat on a chair slowly. Tears started to roll down from her eyes.

Later at night..

Jihae and her family were about to having a family dinner. But, Minyoung was still in her room.

"Hey, Jihae, why don't you call your sister to come down and eat with us?" asked her mother.

"Yes, eomma."

Jihae walked into Minyoung's room as she took a deep breath before knocking the door. 

"What?!" She heard a voice shouted from inside the room.

Jihae opened the door slowly and saw Minyoung was lying on her bed with a kind of necklace on her hand.

"Eonni, eomma wants you to eat dinner with us. Let's go down stair."

"Can't you see I'm busy?!"

Jihae raised my left eyebrow. Busy your ass, she thought.

"What are you actually doing?"

"Why are you so curious?"

"I asked so that I will have a reason if eomma asks me why didn't you go down stair."

(A/N Boom Jihae you slayed).

"I'm looking at this pendant??? Can't you f***ing see it?!"

Before Jihae opened her mouth to say something, her mother had already showed up.

"Watch your words, Minyoung!"

Minyoung only rolled her eyes and looked back at her pendant.

"Lee Minyoung, come down and sit with us. You need to eat!"

"Fine."

Suddenly, their mother smelled something burnt. She decided to look at the kitchen. She got panicked because it turned out their kitchen was on big fire. Their father knew about it and immediately told them to go out from the house.

As soon they were already out from their house, their father asked, "Is everyone okay?"

"Yes, appa. Woah.. wait!!" Minyoung suddenly got panicked.

"What's wrong, Minyoung?!"

"Oh, no!! My lucky pendant! I left it on my bed. Appa, I have to go back there. Now. I need to take the pendant with me. I'll be back, just a moment!" Minyoung ran back to her house, which was on big fire only to take the pendant with her.

"LEE MINYOUNG!!" Their mother was also got panicked as she saw Minyoung ran back to their house. Their father immediately chased Minyoung into the house.

5 seconds later..

BOOM.

Their house got exploded.

Minyoung and her father hadn't come out yet.

"EONNI!! APPA!!" For the second time on her life, Jihae had lost her family again.

End of flashback.

JIHAE'S POV

My eyes were wet as the tears came back.

"But, how? I mean, Minyoung noona--"

I cut him off. "I know, right? I can't believe what I just saw earlier! Minyoung eonni.. is still alive."

"How about your mother?"

"Eomma has also died a few years after the incident because of her heart attack. That time I was already in the middle school, so that I could take a part-time job and study in a boarding school because I got my scholarship for my grades."

Taehyung hugged me once again. Without even realizing what I was doing, I hugged him back.

"You're lucky, Taehyung. You have a complete family and your family is rich. You don't have to study hard for getting a scholarship and get a job for your life's sake."

Taehyung caressed my hair. "And you're lucky because you have me that will always protect you and always by your side."

I smiled quietly. "Thank you."

After a few minutes in a silent situation, I decided to talk again.

"By the way, Taehyung, it's getting late. You have to go home." I released our hug and wiped my tears.

"Nah, I would stay here until I've made sure if you're okay."

I raised my eyebrows. "But how about your parents and Jimin-ssi?"

"Eomma and appa are currently on their business trip in Hawaii with Jimin's parents. And about Jimin, don't worry about him."

I bit my lower lips. "But, Taehyung--"

He cut me off. "It's oppa to you, young miss."

I rolled my eyes. "Fine, oppa. I'll be okay, alright? Just go home, Jimin-ssi surely is waiting for you."

"Look, I can't leave you alone, especially in your condition right now. Don't worry, I won't sleep in the same room or the same bed with you. I can sleep in the sofa," he said. Suddenly, a smirk appeared on his face. Gosh, what now? "Or do you want to sleep together with me in the same bed?"

My eyes widened as I threw a pillow at him. "Yah! Kim Taehyung!"

He chuckled. "Hahaha, just kidding. Go take a bath, you already smelled."

"Yah!"

"I'm not joking," he said as he raised both of his hands like a criminal who got caught by the police.

"Well, okay."

"That's my girl. I'll make the dinner, okay?" Taehyung suddenly kissed my forehead and I froze.

As soon as he left my room, I whipered to myself quietly. "Did he.. just kiss my forehead?" My heart suddenly beated so fast.
