I paddled along behind him as he lead me to a high chair seat in front of the kitchen bench I was hiding behind earlier. Jungkook and Taehyung tailed us and sat beside me as they joined me watch Jin as he collected kitchen utensils and food from the fridge.
' Watchya cooking hyung?' Jungkook said looking at the array of vegetables on the kitchen counter.
' I'll make a soup of some kind.' he said as he got out a chopping board from a cabinet and started chopping carrots at an amazing speed. ' What do you guys want? Noodles or rice?' he asked as he glanced up at the two boys sitting on either side of me.
Taehyung looked at me while I was zoned out watching Jin cut carrots like a machine and tapped me on the shoulder.
' what do you prefer... um ... what was your name again?'
I force myself to look away from the blur of the knife and respond. ' Ever. Although if you would like to name me otherwise I wouldn't object' I say with a slight smile looking at his cute puffy morning hair and crease marks on his cheek.
He lowered his eyebrows in confusion ' What do you mean we can name you? You already have a name'
I looked back at Jin's slightly slower chopping of potatoes ' That name was given by my supervisors, but its not concreate. In a way...' I take a sneak peek at Jungkook's questionable expression ' ... I belong to you .. Uh all of you so you can call me whatever really'
I look back at the stationary knife and trail up at the body holding it. Jin places the knife down , place both palms on the counter to lean in and gently says ' You belong to us? What does that really mean?'
My cheeks flush and shift uncomfortably in my seat due to all the attention. I try not to read too much into what that actually sounded like, and answer with the facts that I know and the connections I made myself
' Angels are only made when there is a need for them, I was made for a purpose. Seeing that there is more than one person I am assigned to, you all must share the same or similar fate.'Choosing the next words carefully I continued ' When an angel is not needed or has no purpose ... we would ... cease to exist'
Silence followed my words as I felt the presence of more people behind me.
' So what? After you save us you die?' Jungkook asks with his eyebrows rising.
' An angels equivalent to death, yes ' I nod looking down at my lap.
Another awkward silence followed.
' What happens if we die? If you cant save us? ' I hear a deep voice say behind me. I turn around to see Namjoon leaning against a wall listening to the conversation with the rest of the boys beside him.
I blink trying to collect my words ' I would have not purpose then, so I would also leave in that situation. But the fact that you all need a guardian angel would mean that it is in my ability to save you' I blurt out trying to show a brave and confident face.
Jin continued chopping potatoes into small cubes and I turned back around to watch. The boys continued to talk behind me.
' Let's just keep her name as Ever, its less confusing that way' I hear Jimin say to the others.
' Ok but I can't exactly pronounce it correctly. English is something I'm still working on." Teahyung laughs apologetically.
' You can say it in Korean if you want' I interrupt . ' Just translate it, ill respond to it' I watch as Jin places the white cubes into a boiling reddish soup. The room is starting to smell heavenly.
