After her yell, she quickly ran to Jin, engulfing him into a hug. The older man hugged her back in response.

This looks like some reunion scene from a k-drama..

"Wow, my protege has grown up so well! How long has it been?? High school, right?"

My little sister who was all frowning and scowling before quickly plastered a large grin as she nodded, "Now, I'm taking my internship at YG hospital. I decided to take the shifts in the ER department."

Jin's eyebrows furrowed in worry, "You must be tired from all those late nights. You're taking care of yourself, right?"

"I'm trying my best," my sister answered slowly.

Yeah right

"She's sleeping 2-3 hours on a daily basis," I said out of nowhere, that immediately got both of their attentions.

"What?!" Jin screamed in astonishment after hearing the new information.

"I can explain--"

"What did I tell you about getting 7 hours of sleep every night? Do you need another lecture from me?"

Haha, sucks to be you, lil sis

"Noona! There you are!"

I almost forgot about him!

I turned to only give him a raised eyebrow, "Jungkook, would you like to explain why this is on my finger?" bringing my left hand towards him, the silver band making it's appearance to his line of sight.

He chuckled nervously, "What do you mean? It's doing it's job just fine. Now, nobody will go towards you."

"Where did you even get this?"

"I bought it, from a jewelry store nearby," he replied.

"What?!" I gaped at his nonchalant answer.

That jewe​​​​​llery store is e x p e n s i v e. Then again, any jewellery stor​​​​​​e is e x p e n s i v e.

"Take it back. You're spending unnecessarily. If I wanted to buy a ring I could've bought it myself." I sighed only to have him bite back.

"But you didn't, did you?" Jungkook gave me a cheshire grin as I reassured him that I would buy myself one.

But then again, I might not.

Trying to tug the ring off my finger, I realised one thing.

"Dang. It's stuck..."

"I'm back!"

Oh no

"Stay here, kiddo."

"But--"

"RM! It's nice...to see you again," I said, putting my on my back, hiding the ring from any more unwanted attention

Talk about bad timing!

He raised his eyebrow a bit, "RM? I thought it was RapMon."

"Yeah but RM's shorter...besides it has a nicer ring to it. It could also stand for..Real Me? I don't know, you seem like a real guy...that's not something you see everyday."

"You promised me Absinthe with a bit of fire when I come back."

"Did I?" I blinked in surprise, not remembering my words.

If I make another one, Demian might scold me once more..

I walked over to the nearest bar station, with RM following me. He took a seat on the dark wooden stool and continued on his speech.
