Underground Rapper || WINNER Mino

Chapter Sixteen:

Monday morning comes and I already have this feeling like today is going to suck. Ji-ho and I finish eating our breakfast, rinse the bowls out and place them in the sink.

"Are you okay?" My brother asks.

"Not really, I have a bad feeling about today," I answer.

"Could it be because you have to clean this kitchen after school today?"

"No, but now that's part of it," I sigh.

"You should've thought about the consequences before you cut class. I expected cutting classes from your brothers, but not you," Mom says.

"I know, I'm so sorry about this whole situation. I truly deserve this punishment."

She hugs me. "Go upstairs and finish getting ready for school."

I go upstairs and brush my teeth, Ji-ho closes the door and rests against it. "So, when are you going to tell Mom, Dad and Ji-seok-hyung about this?" He cross his arms over his chest.

"I already told Oppa." I smile.

"How did he take it?"

I nervously laugh. "He may have gotten a little angry at news."

"Ji-ho! Jia! Kyung – my future son-in-law – and this strange boy are here!" Mom shouts to us. "The strange boy calls himself Mino!"

"We're coming!" We stop in our rooms to grab our book bags and then we go down to the living room. Mom wasn't lying when she said that Minho is here.

Ji-ho and I put on our light jackets and shoes, Mom kisses us goodbye and the four of us leave the house. As we stroll down the street, Ji-ho pipes up, "Why are you here, Mino?"

"I was in the neighborhood."

"You don't live anywhere near here," Kyung comments.

"Fine, I thought I would drop by. What's wrong with that?"

"Nothing, it's just very unusual of you to drop by," I state.

"Is it a bad thing that I did?" Minho looks at me.

"No, no, no! It's fine!" I panic.

He nods his head. "What did your Mom mean when she referred to Kyung-hyung as her future son-in-law?"

I feel my face heat up as Kyung and Ji-ho chuckle. "She has this idea that Jia and I will get married in the future," Kyung says.

"Is there a reason behind that?"

"Jia use to want to play with Kyung all the time," Ji-ho answers. "And she said she wanted to marry him."

I cover my face with my hands. I don't want to talk about this anymore.

We get to the campus, Minho and I separate from Ji-ho and Kyung. We take our seats and Minho turns towards me. "You use to say that you wanted to marry Kyung-hyung, huh?"

"I was five and Kyung-oppa was really nice to me," I defend myself.

"Do you still like him?"

I mean I do, but not like I use to. I don't know why though.

"You do like him," Minho accuses me.

"I didn't say that."

"You didn't deny it."

I lick my lips as I feel my heart rate pick up. "Why does it matter?" I ask, trying to take the attention away from me and my feelings.

"It doesn't." It is quiet for a moment. "I saw on social media you went to visit Ji-seok-hyung. How was that?"
