Yoongi lifted his head. Boram put a hot pot on the dining table of her house in front of him. She sat across him.
"You know you don't have to-" he voiced. "I can't let you hungry, do I?" she held out a chopstick to him. "Let's dig in!"
Boram opened the pot to reveal the hot ramyeon. Yoongi chuckled. He started to enjoy the ramyeon.
"It had been years since we last eat ramyeon together at this hour" he voiced. "Tell me about it" she agreed but then paused. He looked away. "I shouldn't talk about that time, do I?"
She shook her head. "Aniya. It seems that is your sweet memory"
"Then to you" he fixed his eyes at her. "It's a bitter memory? Is that it?"
"Yoongi" her eyes saddened.
He cleared his throat and continued to eat. She pretended the conversation didn't happen and continued to eat.
There was a series of knock on her front door. Both Boram and Yoongi widened their eyes at each other.
"Boram-ah!" Mingyu's voice could be heard. Both began to panic and she put her chopstick away. Boram pushed Yoongi away from the dining table.
"Don't try to hide anyone, Boram" Mingyu looked to the umbrellas at his side outside the house. There were two of them. "Yah, open up!"
The door was opened to reveal Boram who was smiling sheepishly. "Mingyu-ah"
He pushed the door opened and made his way into the house. "Yah, Mingyu" Boram kept on calling him but he continued to dash into her house, ignoring him. Mingyu stopped at he saw Yoongi standing at the dining table.
"I thought so" Mingyu glared down on Yoongi. "Mingyu" Boram appeared beside Mingyu. "I can explain"
"What are you doing here?!" Mingyu still looked at Yoongi. "Can't you see" Yoongi took his place again at the dining table. "I'm eating"
"I think you can eat at your house. Why are you even here?! Why are you disturbing Boram?! Why only now that you appear in front of her again?! Why?!"
"Mingyu, it's not his fault" Boram interrupted. "I brought him here"
Mingyu turned to her. He was in rage. "Tell me, Boram. Why are you clinging on to him now?! Don't you hate him?! You cried millions times when you talk about him! Why only now you start to see him again?!" She didn't dare to lift her head "Mingyu, please. Just leave"
"No" Mingyu pointed to Yoongi. "I want him to leave first!"
"Kim Mingyu!" Boram shouted. "Can you just" she sighed. "Stop controlling me! He's not like what you think he is"
"Then how's him, Boram?" Mingyu asked back "You believe in him? You think he's a good person now just because he helps you?". She didn't dare to utter a word. Mingyu smirked. "See? You can't even answer me"
"No" Boram looked to Mingyu. "I have faith in him. I know him well than other people. I thought as my friend, you will believe him too. You will believe in me and support me" her eyes were teary. "But..."
Mingyu ruffled his head and saw Yoongi. "Why are you even here at her house in this wee hour?"
Yoongi glanced to him "Look who's talking"
"What?" Mingyu whispered in disbelieve. Yoongi put the chopstick as he just finished the ramyeon. "Can't you see? I'm only here to eat. And I didn't plan on doing anything to harm Boram, if that's what you think" he stood. "I know typical mind set of a policeman. I'm just a criminal and I will always be. Am I right, Officer Kim?"
