"What?" Chorong asked, her eyes squinting in the process. 

"It's me, Jimin." Jimin said while looking straight into her eyes with his hands both at the side of her cheeks. Chorong frowned and Jimin sighed in relief thinking that Chorong finally recognized him.

"Tch, you're just another imagination. You think you're going to fool me? No." Chorong said as she removed both of Jimin's hands away from her face. "This happened a hundred times, I'm used to it. You're just.. a dream." Chorong said her eyes getting teary again and Jimin can't do anything but to sigh.

"Why can't you just.."

Jimin sighed as he stopped what he's about to say, it's pointless anyways.

"Let's get you home." He softly said before carrying Chorong into his arms again when he remembered that he doesn't know where Chorong lives. Shaking his head, Jimin fished his phone out and was about to call Sunny when his phone died. Letting out a groan and grunt, Jimin put Chorong back at the bench before fishing her phone out of her bag when Jimin saw that her phone has password.

Trying everything that suit the password, Jimin failed when the phone locked itself and can be opened a minute later. Shaking his head, Jimin pocketed Chorong's phone and carried the latter thinking that it's best to take her to his home instead.





"What the hell." Chorong said as soon as the sunlight greeted her face, rubbing her eyes Chorong sat up and was about to close the blind when she felt her head being squished. "Ouch." Chorong said shutting her eyes tight while both of her hands began rubbing her temples in hopes to ease the pain down. Too busy with what she's doing, Chorong wasn't able to hear the faint knock on the door.

Still busy rubbing her temples with her eyes closed, Chorong failed to see the person entering the room to close the blinds and as soon as the bright light, Chorong stopped rubbing her head but her eyes are still closed.

"Sunny?" She asked, her brows furrowed and her eyes still closed. Hearing footsteps nearing, Chorong slowly opened her eyes only to get the shock of her life. Letting out a gasp as her eyes widened, Chorong grabbed the sheets of the bed as she hid under it with only the part of her eyes showing.

"W-What the hell are you doing here?!" Chorong asked loudly making the person flinch and take a step back. "Leave or I'll call the police." Chorong threatened and the person can only shake his head.

"First." He started. "You're drunk."

"Second." He added. "I only did an act of kindness." |

"Third." He continued. "This. Is. My. House." He finished and Chorong’s eyes grew wider by the last words she heard. Looking around, the place was indeed unfamiliar and she had to mentally kick herself for assuming things. Gathering her things quickly, Chorong jumped out of the bed and was about to run outside the room when Jimin grabbed her wrist stopping her from doing so.

"Are you going like that?" Jimin asked and Chorong furrowed her brows before looking at the other side of the room where a mirror was and gasped in shock when she saw her current state. Hair dishevelled and her make up lightly faded.

Chorong groaned inwardly in annoyance.

"Go clean up yourself first, I have some spare shirts inside the closet and you can wear it. There's some new toothbrush at the bathroom too." He said in one breath before leaving out of the room not forgetting to close the door leaving Chorong dumbfounded.

"What the hell?" She asked herself.

"Am I still drunk?"




"What?" Jimin asked as soon as he answered the ringing phone. "Whoa, good morning to you too, cousin." Chanyeol answered merrily when he heard his cousin's annoyed tone over the phone. "It's not a good morning to start with so stop playing with me hyung." Jimin answered quickly then heard a chuckle from Chanyeol making him more annoyed than he ever was.

"I know, how are you doing?" Chanyeol asked and having enough of his cousin's teasing, Jimin held the phone away from his ear and ended the call. Turning around, Jimin saw Chorong going out of his room wearing his shirt and he had to shake his head at the sight.

She's still pretty, he thought as he noticed her bare face.

"I.. uhh.." Chorong started  as she fidgeted the hem of Jimin's shirt when she arrived at the kitchen. The latter can only raise his brows while looking at her. "I.." Chorong trailed still finding the right words to say.

"Eat your breakfast, we'll go to work in two hours." He shortly said before leaving Chorong. "Aren't you going to eat first?" Chorong asked and Jimin shook his head. "Done." He answered before pointing at the dish settled at the kitchen table.

"I'll go out first. Eat." He said before going out of his apartment.

Having no choice, Chorong settled herself at the table and started taking her breakfast.






"Chorong?" Jimin said as he knocked on his bedroom door thinking that Chorong was still there. Hearing no response, Jimin twisted the knob and opened the door only to find his bed fixed. Looking around, Jimin saw a bright coloured sticky note placed above the kitchen table.
Walking across his apartment, Jimin entered the kitchen and read the words written on the small piece of paper.



"Jimin-ssi,
Thank you for your kindness last night, I know you don't really like having me around you right now so I apologize for whatever inconvenience I may have caused you. Don't worry, I'll gladly and sincerely pay back everything you've done for me. If I have done something wrong against you, please forgive me or if not, feel free to despise me all you want. I'll stay away from you if that's what you want. I'll try.. No, I promise to never stay in the same place with you anymore. Thank you, for the friendship you've given me. It was a great pleasure to know the real you."
                                                                                                                                                                                                       Sincerely,
                                                                                                                                                                                                                   Chorong."



The words said and never did he felt such pain from words. Right there at that moment, Jimin felt like crumpling the piece of paper.

And so he did.
