#6 : Secret Room 🔑

The next morning was kind of awkward between us. We ate breakfast without saying a word to each other. Regretting the act I did yesterday, I spoke up to him, "Seung-gyo, Sorry. "

" You can't even look at me. Tell me exactly what's up there in your mind yesterday. " he stopped eating and looked at me.

" Seriously, nothing. It was nothing. I don't even know why we even fought when it's a small issue." I got up and washed my plates at the sink.

" If you're not going to tell me, then I'll wait for the day it'll worsen. Not trying to curse your life or whatsoever. No intentions. "

" Let's head to school and not talk about it anymore. "

We entered our individual classrooms. I was expecting Taehyung to just come jump at me out of nowhere and grab my randomly. But turns out--not.

" Hey, Jasie! " I sat down next to her as we waited for the teacher to come.

" H-Hey. Have you seen Roanne somewhere? I haven't seen her today at all.. "

" Oh, I'll go find her if you'd wan--"

" It's fine!! She'll come to us, I know. Just don't sit with me for now. " she looked away as everyone looked at me in shock.

My heart skipped a beat, feeling upset because I tried my everything to become a nice person. Forgetting how I was last time,

" Oh. Okay, then. "

I picked up my bag and left the classroom, standing right outside the door with widened eyes.

" What a mess and what was that..? " I mumbled to myself.

I walked away from the classroom and walked around the empty hallway. Everyone was in their classes since lessons were about to start.

I was.. still in shock.

" Hey, what are you doing outside here? Aren't you supposed to be in class...and are you okay? "A tall male approached me and he was indeed one attractive person.

" Oh, just freaking done with life, yes." I looked down, " Still thinking about problems. "

" You need space to think? "

" Yeah, I really, really do. " I looked up, looking forward to the 'space' he was talking about.

" Follow me then. "

" Oh, by the way, my name is Jimin. Park Jimin. Sorry if I do weird you out, suddenly approaching you like that.. " he said, " I was also trying to think as well. "

now that he mentioned the word 'think', I realised that it is indeed a meaningful word.

" Thanks for asking if I was okay and well, understanding me as well. " I smiled.

great start.

" You said something about yourself thinking about life.. Since we're almost there--at the 'space' room, why don't you tell me on what you were thinking?"

I stopped.

" Long story, mate. Long, long story. "

" If there's anything, you can just talk to me. I have problems too, you see. I can share them with you, and maybe get them out of my head for a moment. Same goes for you as well." he explained, " Anyway, we're here. The secret room of this specific High School.

" Cool. "

When I entered, I smiled without hesitation. There were a few furnitures in the room and this one and only room made it feel home since there were some furnitures and blankets. It was also clean, meaning someone or a group of people have been here, before, or multiple of times.

" This is, my group's room, AKA, our hangout room. But they're not here and I rarely see them these days. " he closed the door behind him and locked it with an old key.

" Let's hang out around here. There is an air conditioner up there and this room..is a secret. Don't tell anyone, okay? "

" I promise I won't, really. " I smiled and sat on the soft couch, " Couch in a room that is located in the school?! WAAHH!! "

" No worries, this key, there's only 7 of them including mine. No one else has this specific, special key to get in this room. The principal doesn't know this secret too..! " he explained, " I should get you one too. "

" Wow... It's fine. I don't think I'm responsible enough to get that key. " I laughed.

" What year are you in? " he asked.

here we go.. again.

" Second year. You? "

" Woah, you're a junior? Okay, I'm in the fourth year. "

" Cool, just like my brother. " I smiled and looked around.

" Whats your brother's nam--"

At that moment, a group of people barged into the room, talking so loudly as if they were in their own little world.

" Of course, yeah. That group of girls, NOPEE. NEVER.. " the group of friends laughed. Jimin and I looked up in shock, once again.

" Jimin?! Long time no see!! The group of boys jumped at him and hugged him as if they were a family.

just looking at them makes me smile like an idiot myself. they're all just like brothers.

" HAHAHA YOU'RE BAC--" they looked at me and widened their eyes.

" You're back too, Cheese Pie. "

everything around me was going blur, and all I could on was him.

" T-Taehyung?! " I covered my mouth with my hands in shock.

" I'm glad you remembered my name, darling. " he stood up and dusted dirt off his shirt, straightening it.

darling?! what in the actual... heck?!

" W-What...Why are you here?! " I asked out loud.

" I'm obviously here because this room is mine. " he cockily said.

Oh my, i can tell that it won't be easy to avoid him at all.

" Hyung, she's the girl you were aiming for?! " a boy that looked like a year younger than him asked in confusion.

" Yes, Jungkookie. "
