I Need You

Chapter 7

I sat on the bed as I waited for Namjoon. I was nervous. I have no idea how I'm going to tell him. All I know is I have to get out of here. The bedroom door opened, and Namjoon walks in. He sits on the chair opposite of the room.

"I'm here, what do you want?"

"I need to get out of here. I have to graduate, and let my brother know I'm okay."

"You are a witness to a murder. You can't leave." Namjoon replied.

"But I have to attend my graduation."

"You are going to have to miss it."

"I can't." I say louder.

"Not my problem. Maybe you shouldn't have been such a nosy person."

"Ugh! You are horrible. I don't understand how anyone can like you!" I yell.

Namjoon just rolls his eyes.

"If I may." Jin says opening the door.

"What is it Jin?" Namjoon asked.

"Well, Lola told me that she was planning on going to South Korea to look for her biological father. How about we let her go back home until graduation, I will stay with her to make sure she doesn't do anything. And then after she graduates she can come back, and her family will think she went to South Korea."

I look at Jin like he had gone crazy.

"Wait, why would I want to come back? And Namjoon didn't need to know about me looking for my biological father." I said angrily.

"I'm sorry Lola, but I'm trying to help you out here." Jin said.

"I'm sorry Jin, I know you are just trying to help me. I just want to go home." I said.

"Okay. I like Jin's plan. But I'm adding Hoseok with you as well. You leave in a few hours." Namjoon said walking out.

"Thank you Jin. I really appreciate your help."

"You're welcome. Now let me go and pack."

"Can I help?"

"Sure."

I followed Jin to his room and I started helping him pack. An hour after we started there was a knock on the door. Jin opened it to reveal a pink hair cutie.

"Jin, what's this I hear about you leaving for about a week?" the pink haired cutie asked.

"Yes, Joon is sending me on a mission." Jin responded.

"I heard that he is letting his hostage go."

"Yes, long enough for her to graduate and then she has to come back."

"Wow. Joon has turned soft for her. Is she even that pretty?"

"Park Jimin!" Jin yelled.

"What?"

"That was rude. She is right behind me." Jin said stepping out of the way.

"Oh. I'm sorry." he said.

He walked up to me.

"Hello, I'm Park Jimin, as Jin already said, but you can call me Jimin."

"Hello Jimin. I'm Lola Matthews."

"Are you Korean?" Jimin asked.

"Half, yes. Although I don't know my biological father." I replied.

"Oh, we know a lot of people in Korea. Give me his name and I will find him." Jimin said.

I looked at Jin and he nodded.

" Okay. My mom said his name was Park Ji-hoo."

Jimin stood there staring at me.

"Umm, is something wrong?" I asked.

"I have an uncle named Park Ji-hoo." Jimin said.

"Wait, really?"

"Yeah, I got to go make a phone call. What is your mother's name?"

"Martina Matthews."

Jimin nodded and walked out the door. Jin stood there with a shocked expression on his face. I couldn't believe what just happened. Could I have really found my dad's side of the family? I shook myself out of the shock and finished helping Jin pack. Soon it was time to go back. I was happy to finally be going back. Now to just think of an excuse for Axel. I was again blindfolded once I got in the car. Jin and Hoseok sat next to me.

"So here's the deal. We will be living in the apartment next to yours. There will always be eyes on you when you are out and about." Hoseok said.

"Okay."

The rest of the car ride was quiet. But I didn't mind. Soon we had arrived. The blindfold was taken off and I was given my phone back. I then walked with Jin to my door. I unlocked the door and walked in with Jin following behind me.

"Where the hell were you?" Axel asked.

"Oh, I had gone for a walk and had gotten lost. Thankfully I ran into this nice man who helped me find my way back home. Turns out he is the new neighbor. He let me wear some dry clothes, since I had gotten stuck in the rain." I lied as smoothly as possible.

"It's true I hope I haven't gotten her in trouble." Jin says with a smile.

"She got herself in trouble when she left without telling me. But since you are eighteen, I can't ground you. Just go to your room and get ready for bed. It's late already." Axel said.

"Good night Jin. I will see you tomorrow."

"Good night Lola."

I walked to my room and laid down in bed. The next week few by. Jin and I have become very good friends, and Jimin even came by. Turns out his uncle did know a Martina Matthews and had a fling with her. Jimin hasn't told him about me yet, since I don't want him to know yet. Me and Jimin have gotten closer as well. Jin and Jimin joined me and Enid on a lot of friend dates. We loved hanging out. Soon the day of mine and Enid's graduations came. I was excited to be finally done with school, for now but nervous because I had to go back to Namjoon's house after this. I was standing in my room in my dress when Jin came in. He had developed a habit of not knocking.

"Wow. You look so pretty." Jin said.

"Thanks. I tried."

I had curled my hair and left it loose down my back, and put on light natural makeup. I grabbed my phone, put it in my purse, then grabbed my cap and gown and headed to the living room where Enid and Axel were.

"Let's graduate." Enid said.

'Yes. Let's go graduate."

After two hours of a bunch of people talking, the ceremony, it finished. I did it. I was finally a high school graduate.

'Now let's party!" Enid shouted.

I laughed as we walked out of the auditorium. This was going to be a fun night.
