Chapter 5

"If he's meant to protect you, you should tell him everything. Tell him about Kim Taehyung, your dad, your school life." Jieun was at Hoseok's place with Namjoon for a few hours now. The robot was very alert due to the new surrounding and barely paid any attention to the conversation between the two humans.

"I will." She sighed, her eyes glancing at the clock. "Damn, how long have I been here? I gotta go, dude!" She got up and grabbed her bags, pulling Namjoon out with her. Hoseok bid her good bye with a kiss on her forehead and waving from the door till he couldn't see them anymore.

"Where are we going now?" Namjoon asked, looking at Jieun's hand that was entangled with his. "Home." She whispered.

"What more do you know about me?" She asked him out of the blue. He looked up at her from the romance novel he found randomly.

"I know a lot about you."

"Tell me then."

"You were born on the 12th of December 1999 at 04:37 AM. Your favorite color used to be baby blue but I haven't been updated. You liked the band EXO and probably still do but not to that extent. You peed your pants in 6th grade when you saw a large spider-"

"Oh, my God! That's enough-"

"You cried a lot that day-"

"Okay fine!-"

"It's one of your dad's favorite memory. You were so embarrassed but still so cute." She became quiet on hearing her father's name. It had been a few days, she wondered how she was able to survive without him. "Even with wet pants and snot running down your nose your father though you were very cute. "My lovely daughter, she's so precious. I hated seeing her cry but that day I thought she was really cute." It's one of his most memorable moments of you." He looked towards her, she was looking right into his eyes, crying with a smile on her face. His system glitched for a nanosecond. Was she sad? Should he have not mentioned her father?

"I'm sorry-"

"I'm glad I know," she whispered, her eyes looking up to try and soak the tears. "I'm glad you told me. I feel... somewhat closer to him."

His eyes followed her movement, how she got up and blinked, her eyelids like a butterfly's wings. Her long eyelashes shined because of her tears and her hands fanned her face to dry them away.

"Do you.." he asked himself before asking her. "Do you want to visit him tomorrow?"

She slowed down a bit and turned to him, a content smile on her plump lips.

"Yes, I really miss him." She hugged him tightly and got up. "Let's go to park today. I won't be free very often."

He nodded as he stood up. "You got a job?"

"Uhm, a waitress isn't too bad. Starting small."

"Do you think you can do it well?"

"Of course, it's just taking and dropping orders."

*

"Okay, when I said dropping orders I didn't mean literally!" She mumbled to herself before she bowed to the customers seated in front of her.

"I'll get a new one right away!" She stood straight while running, bumping into her new co-workers on the way. They gave her an annoyed look but she didn't noticed.

"Uhm, I kinda.. I dropped the special Sunday... uh.." she peeped at the name tag of the person she was taking to. "Yoongi. Min Yoongi-sshi." The tall man with dark brown hair turned to her, his expression was quite.. dull.
