Night Sky

34

It's my third day on leave and all I did was sleep haha
Anyways, thanks for continuing to support this book. As you all know, I'm introducing a lot more characters to the story since it's going to be a series. I hope you support each one of them 💜

After the little stunt that Jungkook pulled, everyone came to an agreement that Allie will work for Big Hit as Jungkook’s English tutor. As much as the said boy protests, he knew he has no choice but to comply unless he wants to be in every gossip site not just in South Korea but the whole world.

We are now back at our apartment building. I decided to cook for Namjoon. He’s so stressed with everything that is going on lately. To add up to that, I share his frustration that we will be away from each other in two weeks. They need to continue their tour and they are set to start the Asian Leg in Japan. Our friends are dear enough to leave us mine and Jesse’s apartment to ourselves. It feels like all the time in the world is not enough to make up for every moment that I have wasted with my stubbornness.

“Baby, just sit down. It’s fine. You’ll just hurt yourself.” I chuckled while he tries to cut some mushrooms for me. He insists to help me even though he doesn’t even know how to use a knife. I’m cooking some Italian pasta for him since he was not able to eat some the first time I made them in their dorm.

He grumpily set the knife down on the kitchen counter and huffed in annoyance. “I want to help, babe.”

“You’ll be helping me by sitting down and not hurting yourself, or the food.” I giggled. He glared cutely at me and leaned his back on high top counter.

“Just sit down, Joonie.” I said while stirring the sauce I’m starting to make. He stomped his feet, got a chair and dragged it loudly in my direction. He set the chair right beside where I was cooking so he can watch me.

I rolled my eyes at him and said, “You know you can wait by the table right?”

“Nope.” He answered quickly. I laughed at him. This man is so adorable. I love how clingy he is. It makes me think how hard it’d be to be away from him.

“Where did you learn how to cook, babe?” He asked. I felt a gloomy atmosphere after he asked the question. I was able to survive being away from home because of everything that Tessa taught me.

“Tessa…” I answered simply. I continued to do what I was doing. Ignoring the knowing stare he is giving me. I know people are very cautious when they talk to me. Especially those people that completely knows me. They know how defensive I can get. It’s a coping mechanism I am starting to hate. Especially because I’m learning to fully open up because I want this relationship with Namjoon to work.

I looked at him and he has a sullen look in his face. I know he knows how important Tessa is to me and I’m just too stubborn to drop whatever betrayal I feel in my heart even though I know she was just caught up with whatever drama I thought my parents didn’t have.

“Ok, yes. I miss her.” I admitted out loud.

“It’s terrible how my Dad has been keeping all of this from me. I don’t know what he told Tessa to have her agree to not tell me for a long time. I know I’m just being stubborn but I guess I’m just not expecting this from her.” I added with all honesty. It’s crazy how I can bare my soul whenever I’m with Namjoon. It still surprises me how comfortable it is to tell him everything. I just wish I would’ve realized this before. It would’ve saved both of us the trouble of avoiding our feelings for each other.

“Then why not talk to her? Now that you know the truth, isn’t it time to talk about it more openly? You’ll never have your answers if you don’t ask her.” I nodded my head. He’s right. He always is. It’s just plain old stubborn me that is the problem. I seem to always push people that care about me away.
