An Idol's Sister | BTS

-36-

The color faded from my face after seeing my brother at the door. "Oh, hey, Kook."

"Don't 'hey' me," Jungkook said harshly. "Get in here now."

I tried to laugh it off then headed inside. "I'm pretty tired. I'll go to bed now."

I said that, heading towards the room I usually stayed in, but suddenly heard Jungkook laugh. I turned around.

"Sorry, did you forget that I'm also in the same room as you?" Jungkook asked.

That's when it hit me. I was staying in Jungkook's room. He headed towards me. "It's fine. We can discuss where you were there in the room."

I watched him nervously from behind. As we entered, he opened the door for me, but shut it loudly.

"Now, noona, where were you?" Jungkook asked.

I looked on the ground. "I-I went to the convenient store."

Jungkook smirked at me. "Noona, if you did go there, where are the things you bought?"

I looked at my palms then laughed, quickly coming up with a story. "Oh! Silly me, I forgot them. Let me get them back." I said as I headed for the door.

But Jungkook has held the doorknob. "You may leave for the convenient store after you answer me."

"I told you," I said softly.

His eyes stared at mine, it was like he could see what was going on in my head. "Really, noona? Come on, don't be scared of me. I'm your little brother."

I gulped. I didn't dare answer him. I wasn't a good liar and he knew that. He knew what I did if I lied.

"What? You want me to tell you where you were?" Jungkook asked, his arms crossing over his chest.

I tried not to look surprised, but I couldn't help it. What did he mean?

"You were with someone, a man."

My palms were starting to sweat because of nervousness. I wasn't scared of what punishment he was giving me, but I was scared of how he would scold me.

"I'm right," Jungkook said proudly. "You can tell the truth now, I know it anyway."

I noticed something off though. Why did he know the gender of who I was with?

"Fine, I'll admit that I was with a man, but how do you know?" I asked suspiciously.

Jungkook stayed silent, but continued to stare at me. "That doesn't matter. Just tell me who you were with and why you were with him."

I shot him a glare. "You weren't tailing me, were you?"

Jungkook stayed silent then grunted. "Just tell me who you were with! It's so easy, rather than lying."

His voice was loud and powerful. If he was going to be tailing me my whole life, I was going to go insane.

"Jungkook, are you out of your mind?! Do you not trust me?! I know who I can go with at night! I can protect myself, I'm not some little girl you have to protect."

Jungkook clicked his tongue. "Oh, so now you're mad? You know, you should be the one feeling guilty for making me worried!"

"Yeah, go ahead, keep blaming me. You'll never get the answer ever!" I shot back.

"Why are you so stubborn?! I keep telling you to just tell me 'cause I just need to know if you were with someone who's trustworthy."

I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, right, Jungkook. You're being unreasonable. Do I really need to tell you about my whereabouts all the time?! I'm a grown up for goodness' sake!"

Jungkook was about to say something when the door suddenly burst open. It was Jin, Yoongi, Namjoon, and Jimin.

Jungkook and I stared at the four boys standing at the door.

"Hyungs, what on earth are you doing in my room?" Jungkook asked irritatedly.

"There was a shouting match in the dorm. Of course, we had to find out who was it." Jin said calmly.

"It's Y/N's fault!" Jungkook shouted back at Jin.

I scoffed. "Sure it is. It's always my damn fault, but tell me, what did I do wrong, huh?"

Jungkook rolled his eyes at me. "You left without my permission!"

"Do I have to keep telling you that I'm an adult? I can take care of myself without anyone! Especially without you!" I shot back.

Jungkook stayed silent after hearing what I said.

"Y/N, you don't mean that." Jin said softly.

"I do! He's been like that ever since I started becoming friends with Yugyeom. I never understood what the heck was his problem!"

I was bursting with rage. I needed to get everything off my chest. I looked over at Yoongi.

"You said that I'm in the way of your career?" I asked him loudly.

He gulped. He was damn guilty.

"I-I didn't mean it—"

"No, you meant it! You think I'm deaf not to hear my own name? You think I'm stupid enough to think that nothing was wrong on the dining table? Ha! You thought wrong!"

"I heard everything you said about me after dinner! I know how much you want me gone!"

"Y-Y/N, he's short-tempered. He doesn't really want you to leave—" Jimin started.

"Stop trying to comfort me, just stop. Besides, you're not the only ones who have a career that's going down rapidly. My reputation is pretty much ruined for the rest of my life thanks to your whole group!"

"My life will never be the same. Do you know how painful it is to be accused and hated by many people who don't even know who I actually am? No, everyone knows me as the girl who flirts with every single member."

I didn't realize that tears were coming out of my eyes. I wiped them off my cheeks then stared at all five of them.

"Where is my bag?" I asked.

"Y/N, don't leave." Namjoon begged.

"I need to. I can't stand being here with six men who all like me." I replied.

"Y/N, you're being unreasonable." Yoongi said.

I looked at him. "My bag?"

He stared at his feet, defeated. "It's in the living room."

Jimin and Jin looked at Yoongi surprised by what he said. Namjoon continued to stare at me sadly. I didn't dare look at my brother.

I walked past the four boys and went to the living room. There, I saw Hoseok and Taehyung sitting on the couch and staring at me.

I got my bag and got my jacket and wallet. I zipped my bag again and put it on my shoulder. I walked towards the exit.

"Y/N, are you really leaving?" Hoseok asked softly.

My hand was already at their doorknob that time when I looked at him. "I'm sorry. I can't...I just...can't be here anymore."

They nodded, but their faces looked sad. "Stay our of trouble, okay?" Hoseok reminded.

I nodded, not making eye contact with either of them.

"And...if ever you would like to come back, you're welcome to stay...here again."

After Taehyung said that, memories fled back inside my mind. I felt like crying again.

I opened the door, making my final decision.
