*8 months ago*

JIN'S POINT OF VIEW:-
     I was looking forward to meeting my step-brother. I had met him only once, but had not had the chance of talking to him due to the circumstances.
I had met him during the marriage of Appa.

     I had already accepted Mrs. Min as my step-mother. I had met her many times before and she had made a good and a lasting impact on me.
But I could not strip away the "step-" from her name because I was close to my actual eomma.

     My parents were on good terms even after the divorce.
My mom had always wanted to travel the world, but my dad could not fulfil that dream of her's because he had a stable and a well paid job here...
Eomma tried staying here for me, but Appa quickly realised that my mom was a free bird. For her, being caged was worse than dying... so her set her free, he let go of his first love.

     Where as, Mr. And Mrs. Min did not have a heartfelt ending...
Appa told me that Mr. Min had been an alcoholic. Mrs. Min had tried to keep their relationship working for Yoongi.
But when she came to know that Mr. Min had been cheating on her, the dam, that already had a lot of cracks, finally gave way.
She had broken off everything with him.

     Now, here I was, sitting on the porch with Appa, waiting for them to arrive. They were shifting over to our house today.
They had literally stayed on the other side of the city.
Due to all the shifting, Yoongi had to drop out of his old school. Appa thought it was best for him to be enrolled in my school so I could help him, you know, since half of the school year was over.

     After a bit of persuation, Appa had been able to convince the Principal to let Yoongi have the same classes as me.

     I was pulled out of my thoughts when I heard the screeching of tires and the gates opening and closing.
Appa scrambled up to his feet when he saw Mrs. Min, my step-mom coming towards our way.
He went to help her with the luggage in her hand while I went outside to help Yoongi, but not before greeting her with a warm hug and a respectful bow, of course!

     I walked towards their car to see Yoongi taking out two bags.
Almost all their stuff had been brought over to our house.
These were just the left overs.

     "Hey! Let me help you with those!", I said while reaching out to take a bag from his hand.

He just pulled away.
"No.", was the only thing he said before walking towards the house.

     I tried making conversations with him.
"Um... hey, are you excited to join our new school?"

"No."

I just let out a sigh as we entered the house.
A great way to start your relationship with your brother, Jin...

"Hello Yoongi!", Appa greeted him with a smile.
"Hello Mr. Kim.", he replied with a smile though it did not reach his eyes.

He had already explained Appa that he would start calling him "appa" only when he was comfortable and that it should not have been expected very early.
     Appa had been a bit hurt but was ready to abide anyways.

"Jin, why don't you take Yoongi upstairs and show him your room?", Appa asked.

I smiled while nodding and beckoned him to follow me towards the stairs.
He quickly grabbed his bags and followed me.

I turned towards the first door on the right and opened the door. The room was pretty big. It was painted a soft cream colour. There were two beds against the opposite walls.
There were two study tables with a lamp in the middle and two wardrobes at the ends of the beds.

"Which one would you like?", I asked.
The only difference was that there was a window near the head of a bed.

Yoongi stared at the beds for two seconds before walking over to the bed without the window.
I silently cheered and did a victory dance in my head. I had a habit of looking out of the window whenever I felt down.

Yoongi put his bag inside the closet and instantly collapsed on the bed.

I decided to try speaking to him one last time for the day.

"Hey, you wanna hear a knock-knock joke?"

He sighed and asked, "I don't have a choice, do I?"

Feeling triumphed, I smiled happily and said, "knock-knock?"

"The door's open."

I huffed in annoyance and stomped out of the room before sparing him a glance.
He had a playful smirk on his face...
