CHAPTER 8

Angie

~After Jimin left for Jeju

I sighed and rolled over the bed.. I scrolled through the phone which is apparently mine based on the wallpaper saying 'Property of Angie Mendoza' in bright red letters on a white background..

Hmm... Let's see what music I listen to..?

Playlists:

Remember to Breathe - 81 songs

Wow.. I'm curious why is the title like that???

*plays it on shuffle*

*Promise by 2pm plays*

"Wow, I like this song!" lemme look at the other playlist..

Relax - 10 songs

Hmmm.. Relax huh? Oh.. It's violin and piano covers of .. BTS? songs.. which are an hour long at most..

BTS? Where have I heard that?

Hmm.. *accidentally hits the skip button and Fanfare by SF9 plays*

"Oh! ..... I like this too! Fanfarereul ullyeora!!"

I bobbed my head along with the tune. It's really catchy, I like it..

While listening to music, I decided to go through my gallery.. Hmm, I can say.. I really like food. I mean there's a whole folder dedicated to food! With over 2 thousand photos!!

Uhhhhh, I'm craving for some food..

*knock*knock*

"Oh, come in." I said and Dr. Ri-Ta came with three boys following behind her.. They looked awfully familiar..

"Are you okay now?" she asked and I nodded my head, eyes focusing on the three people in the room.. "Angie.. Do you remember them? They're your dad and younger brothers.." she said and pointed out who is who..

"My dad.. and brothers?" I don't remember.. I.. Ow.. Ow. "Don't force yourself.. It's okay to go slow.." she said and left the room once I felt okay..

It was really quiet.. They weren't saying anything..

"Uhm.. so.."

"Noona, I'm in high school right now." the one with curly black hair said and gave an awkward smile.. "Good for you.." I said and returned his smile..

"It's thanks to you, noona.. Because you saved up enough money for my studies.." he said again but this time, he's smile was genuine..

"And I managed to become a lawyer. So uhh, thanks sis.." the other one, with blonde dyed hair told me..

"So I'm the oldest, you're the middle one and he's the youngest.. How old are you guys again?" I asked..

"I'm 21, he's 13.." the blonde said.. Wow.. so young.. If I remember Dr. Ri-Ta telling me, I think I'm 23..

"Hey dad.. How are you?" I asked awkwardly when I noticed him looking at me.. He didn't say anything and I was surprised when he hugged me..

"I've missed you so much.." he said as he buried himself in my hair.. "I thought you went to your mother's side.. I was worried sick for the past 3 years.." he mumbled and soon enough, the other two joined as well sandwiching me in the middle..

"All set ka na ba anak? [Are you all set?]"

"Nak, dito ka na lang? Ayokong ma--[Why don't you just stay here? I don't want somethi--]"
