Ex-Rivals (Editing)

아홉

Jae-eun's POV

It's been 2 weeks since that 'kissing' accident. Jimin and I became real awkward. We haven't talked to each other since then.

I've always tried to avoid him as much as I can and I'll be honest that I actually missed him.

"What if he was just messing with me?"

"Who's HE, Jae?" Somi said while smirking.

"Uhh, uhm, nobody! I was just uhm, uhh, READING A STORY AND I KEPT THINKING OF THAT LINE. HAHAHAHA" I put my hand on the back of my neck while smiling sheepishly.

Somi raised one of her eyebrows. "You know, Jae? You're a really bad liar." After she said that, she scoffed at me.

"HEY! I'm not lying! It's true!" I protested. "Then why were you stuttering?" Alright, fine. I guess telling her wouldn't hurt, right?

I told Somi the whole story, including the 'kissing' accident. She just stares at me blankly.

"Uhm, Somi?" All of a sudden she started screaming "HAHAHAHA, JAE. SEE! I TOLD YOU THAT YOU'LL END UP FALLING FOR HIM!" I mentally facepalmed myself.

"Stop screaming will you? They'll know about it if you keep on screaming!" I whisper-shouted at her. Somi just kept laughing, and I decided to just go home since class had just ended.

"Hey! Why'd you leave me, Jae?" I just rolled my eyes at her and kept walking.

I took my phone from my bag and dialled Jungkook. "Urgh, why isn't he picking up?"

I kept on dialing him until the third try. He answered on the second ring with a hoarse voice. "Ahem. *Cough* Yep, noona. What's up?" I told him to bring his car to the gate and that I'll wait him there.

"Uhh, okey! I'll see you, Noona."

After we reached home, I immediately went to my room and started studying for my final test since I'm on my last year of senior high school.

I need to study real hard so I could go to the university that I've been dreaming. Which is Korea National University of Arts.
(They're currently studying on SOPA or School Of Performing Arts, Seoul)

Besides that, I could also get my mind off of Jimin for a while.

Jungkook's POV

"Yah, hyung. That was very shocking wasn't it?" I nudged Jimin hyung. "Yep, we were talking about her and then she literally calls you. Damn, I thought she knew that we're talking about her." He laughed until his eyes dissapear.

"Hmm, it's been a while since you've laughed like that. I guess you're starting to forget about my byootiful noona." I winked for a couple times to tease him.

"Ugh, whatever Kook. But damn, hearing her angelic voice really made me miss her more." Jimin hyung smiled for a while then sighed.

Flashback

~a few minutes before the call

"The thing is, I FREAKING MISSED HER, KOOK!" Jimin hyung screamed at me for the thousand time.

"I know, hyung. You had been screaming that stuff all over again to me." I put on a sarcastic smile.

"I hate her. Was she just messing around with me? Noooo, I cannot Ko-" His whining got cut off by my phone's ringtone.

"WHAT THE ACTUAL FUDGE?! IT'S MY NOONA! WHAT DO WE DO? WHAT DO WE DO?" We both started panicking.

"HO MY GOD CALL 911. I TOTALLY NEED HELP. DOES SHE KNOW THAT WE'RE BAD MOUTHING HER? NO!! DON'T! I think I might pee on my pants! KOOK!!!!" I told hyung to stop freaking out eventhough I can't too. Gosh we look like dumbies.

We didn't realize that she's been calling us for 3 times and then I finally picked up.

"Ahem. *Cough* Yep, noona. What's up?" My voice was hoarse from all the screaming with Jimin hyung.

We totally looked and sounded like girls getting called by their crush. After my noona ended the call, I bid goodbyes with Jimin hyung and picked her up.

~back to present time

"Hyung! I think I need to go back home right now. It's getting pretty late now and I could get lectures from Jae noona if I go home later."

I tied my shoelaces and walked towards the door. "Bye, hyung. Let's continue our story-telling tomorrow!" He nodded his head and lead me towards the door. He waved at me so I waved back.

I walked towards my parents' mansion aka my house while humming some songs. When I finally reached home, I took off my shoes and plopped my body on the couch.

I turned on the TV and found an interesting movie so I decided to grab some snacks and watch the movie. "Hey! It's right behind you, Stark. No! No! Watch out! Damn!"

I kept on screaming those kinds of things until I heard footsteps walking down the stairs. "Kookie-ah. Wait, you're watching Iron Man? Whatever. Just take a shower and then we'll have dinner." Apparently that was Jae noona.

She's wearing her pyjamas and walked towards the dining room. "What's for dinner, noona?" I decided to follow her to the dining room and saw that we have steaks for dinner.

"Screw bath. I'm eating right now." I immediately took a seat next to noona.

We ate in silence until she finally said something that shocked me. "Kookie. Why are you being very nice lately? I mean, you never pranked me anymore and annoy me. Are you okay? Oh, DID YOU BREAK UP WITH SOMI?" I choked on my food and I chugged down a full glass of water.

I actually knew that noona's a little stressed out lately, cause she's in charge of the house while Eomma and Appa's overseas and of course because of the Jimin hyung thingy. I can read her easily, ya' know.

"Nothing, noona. I'm just not in the mood. And yeah, I did break up with Somi probably 3 days ago cause we both wanted to focus on our studies, so..." At least, by not annoying Jae noona, I could help her a bit.

"Hey!!! How come neither one of you guys told me!" She whined at me. I laughed, "Well, I just told you noona!" She stared at me then laughed.

"You're right!" I smiled at the view, which is my noona laughing. Finally she laughed again. I'm glad that I entertained her eventhough it's not funny at all, at least she laughed.
