Chapter 5

I came out the door in my outfit and came over to where Hoseok was, standing right next to the door to exit.

As I saw him,  he looked rather so attractive, with running his hands through his hair, and biting his lip while looking at his phone.

After about 30 seconds of admiring him, he looked over at me standing in the doorway of my room. He lightly smiled at me, "So are you ready to go?" I nodded my head. I noticed Jimin looking a little down.

'That's new.'

Hoseok and I made the way out of the door. "So what do you say about getting a bottle of Soju and some instant noodles?" he said chuckling a bit. "Sure, but where are we going to eat it?"

"My place?" he said looking a bit flustered. "How am I sure you won't do anything." I said chuckling with him chuckling, "Plus I live right next to you aaand we are just going to be friends"

"Mhm" I said looking up at him smiling

We arrived at the convenience store a couple blocks down from campus.

"Whoever can get the instant noodles and Soju fastest gets to pick a drastic dare for the other!" Hoseok said grinning.

I felt my mood brighten and started to forget the family situation.

"Game ON!!"

"3, 2, 1.... GO"

I ran like a crazy kid in a candy shop, going crazy to get the instant noodles and the Soju. Since I was new to Busan and this convenience it was a bit harder to find stuff. I ran across the instant noodle section, "perfect!" I said gasping for air.

I quickly grabbed the cup and ran towards the back where I believe the booze was. I saw the Soju and quickly grabbed it. I also didn't see Hoseok.

"He's probably just getting the noodles still." I said to myself panting.

I made my way to the front and saw Hoseok standing in line already. "You lost" he said ruffling up my hair. "What's the dare" I said with an energetic voice surprisingly.

"Kiss..."

"Oh....." I said slightly hoping it would be Jimin..

"Jimin."

"nO......" I said in a surprised/flustered voice. 'God damnit, it came true...'

He started to chuckle once we got out of the store. He looked over at me and noticed I was a bit flustered.

"But, you don't have to get sexual with him." he said sitting on the bench where I was.

"Wasn't going to," I said crossing my arms across my chest. "But Jimin hates me."

"He may not, you know," he said, looking elsewhere. "You just have to get used to him." Those words sent shivers down my spine.

"H-how about we head back?" Hoseok just nodded giving me a slight smile. As we walked home, it started to lightly snow. It was beautiful. But I still had that thought of Jimin liking me.

He may not, you know. I kept replaying those words in my head while admiring the snow. While walking next to Hoseok.

And after the walk back, I saw Yoongi. My brother. He looked at me, and then Hoseok. He furrowed his eyebrows. And moving his head to signal me he wanted to talk.

"Um, will you excuse me for a sec?" I asked looking up at Hoseok. and I just walked towards my brother. "What are you doing with him?" he asked whispering.

"He's just a friend chill," responding with a quiet but stern voice. "And do you know about Halmoni?" He nodded his head as a response. "How long have you known?"

"Since the day she was sick. About more than a week." He spoke looking me straight in the eyes. "Why the hell didn't you tell me?" I said slightly raising my voice.

"W-Well, eomma told me not to tell you." I was heartbroken hearing those words. And that my own mother didn't tell me. "Eomma didn't want to drag you into all of this."

I felt a warm tear start to trickle down my face. After hearing all that my own mother told my brother not to tell me.

I looked over at Hoseok he was still standing there waiting for me, I felt bad that he had to wait. So I just left to go to him. I wiped my tear before I got to him. And put on a smile.

"Are you okay?" he asked as we made it to his dorm.
"O-of course I am what makes you think i'm not?"
"Well I just saw you wipe a tear, you can talk to me anytime." my heart warmed after he said that to me.

As we made it to the dorm we talked about other topics holding off about the topic of me.

Once we got to the dorm we just made the ramyeon. As he was slurping up his steaming ramen, I decided to tell him about what happened.

"Jinjja??!?" he exclaimed
I nodded in response
"How could she make him do that to you?"
"She's always had a problem with not telling me shit," I said chugging my Soju down. "You deserve better you know" he said letting out a sigh.
"But I'm nothing okay,"

There was a long pause between my response and his.

"You are something."
