I got finally got home after such a long day, putting my bag down on the kitchen bench. I went upstairs to my room and got changed out of my uncomfortable school uniform.

My mother had come home from work rather early and offered to make myself and her chicken fried rice. It was probably my favourite dish that she cooked because their was very limited good ones. I love my mother to bits, but one thing she just should try and do is cook any food that is not microwaveable or already frozen and ready to put in  the oven. Unless it was her chicken fried rice or her home baked cookies. 

I sat down with my mother at the table, she informed me that my father was working late tonight and I nodded, continuing to eat my rice. The dinner table was usually quiet because neither of us really minded whether or not we ate in silence or talked. It's not that we didn't like communicating because boy we did that a lot, I guess you could say it was because she's a therapist. We just both would rather eat that chat at the table.

Although tonight she half surprised me after minutes of silence she spoke "so I stopped by this really pretty dress shop on my way home from work" I rolled my eyes as soon As I knew where this conversation was going. "Mum" I stopped her "I'm not going to prom" she knew am too well why I didn't like it, I had ranted to her several times. "Why don't you just go with a friend, it'll be a nice night out and you can dress pretty!" She continued trying to persuade me. I honesty didn't understand why she wanted me to go so desperately.

"Why don't you take jimin or j hope"
I scrunched up my nose at the thought of taking one of my best friends to prom as a date. "You can go As friends! " she exclaimed obviously noticing my expression. I rolled my eyes "it would be to weird taking one of them " she sighed almost giving up.

"What about Tae from next door?" My heart skipped a beat at the mention of his name. Now I guess the only way to get me to go to prom would be to have taehyung ask me. To be honest that would almost be a dream come true, but I knew it would never happen which is why I loathed prom. "We don't talk anymore" I told her sternly. "Fine"  she frowned, giving up on attempts to get me to go.  

After I finished dinner I helped my mother wash the dishes before I ran up to my bedroom. Jumping onto my bed, sprawling myself out amongst my freshly washed pink sheets, sighing I stared up my  ceiling mentally slapping myself for not speaking to Taehyung today. Why was I so afraid of him?

I decided to stop moping around when I got a text from j hope saying that we need to Skype immediately because he had cool new dance move to show me. I stifled a laugh at how childish that boy could be sometimes as I reached over to my draws grabbing my laptop and opening Skype. I answered that call and was suddenly greeted by a grinning j hope, not that his smile wasn't already big enough.

We ended up skyping for a solid 4 hours and jimin joined the call half way through. J hope showed us both this cool move where he would sit on the ground and put one arm behind his body and use all his strength to turn himself, but to the human eye it looked like the floor was spinning him and he wasn't doing a thing. Pretty impressive not gonna lie.

It was 10:30pm and I was exhausted, I said goodnight to the boys before ending the call and turning off my bedroom light. Staring up at my bedroom ceiling once again I thought, It was May fifteenth today. That could've been just any day- until just before midnight, when Kim Taehyung slid open my bedroom window for the first time since telling me to close it eight years before.
