I stand up from my chair and do a 90° angle bow towards Hyunjin.
"Thank you so very much!"
Standing back up straight, Hyunjin smiles.
"No need to thank me, I think we should tell Jinyoung though." Hyunjin say.
I nod my head in agreement.
"I could drive you over to his dorm, it's not far from here." He says as he cleans up his and my mess.
"I know it's not far, that why I moved here. Sure, you can drive me and Jinae." Walking over to the basket I grab her blanket and tuck her in nicely.
"You named her?" Hyunjin ask.
"No, that's what the note said her name is. Pretty, right?" I say stating at her.
"Very. Let's go, dont forget her diapers and food." We walk out to his car and I set the basket in my lap.
We drove for a couple minutes in silence before I speak out.
"How do you know Jinyoung?" I quietly speak.
"My friends and I are trainees at JYP and they tutor us on our dancing, singing and rapping." Looking at the road he taps the steering wheel.
I make an 'o' shape with mouth and nod my head.
"So how's it feel to be a trainee?" I ask.
"It's cool, I guess. To boost our popularity when we debut, they made us all get an Instagram. Somehow mine blew up, but they didn't think that was enough, so they made me date Hwayoung." I look over to him, telling him to continue.
"When I got into SOPA it was my first year. Halfway through the year, I was accepted into JYP along with 8 other people. We are debuting soon and they want us to have a least some popularity. So they wanted me to date the most popular girl, which I was against." He explains.
"So you don't actually like her? You're using her?" I ask, no meaning to offend him.
"What?!? No! It wasnt my decision. I mean after awhile I got used to her. She's affectionate and clingy, which I lowkey like. But to other people she isn't nice, and I hate that about a person." He defends himself.
"Do you think she'll care if we take care of a real baby? Together?" I questioned.
"It's a good way to break up with her." He says blantly.
"What?!?"
"Shh!" He hushs "I can't have a girlfriend, if I'm always going to be around you. It's time consuming. It will not only hurt her, but you will get annoyed with her always wanting to hang out."
I sigh and nod.
We soon arrive at the dorms and I question if I should go in or not.
"Come on, it's alright, I promise." Hyunjin opens my door.
I walk out of the car holding the basket tightly.
We knock on the door twice and the first to open it was Mark.
"Hey is Jinyoung home? He left his phone at our house." Hyunjin says
"Yeah come on in. What's that?" Mark points towards the basket.
"You'll see." Hyunjin says before guiding me inside.
"Hey Jinyoung." Hyunjin says as we walk in.
"Oh hey Hyunjin. Chaneun? What are you doing here" He stands up from the couch walking towards us.
"I have to tell you something. In private." I say quietly.
"Oh? Okay? Is it really that important you couldnt wait until tomorrow or call me?" He asks.
"Well I tried to call you but you left it at Hyunjin's house, so Hyunjin came over. It is very important, so can we please talk in private." I grow impatient.
"Okay fine, follow me." Jinyoung leads me to his bedroom and shuts the door.
"Okay what did you need to tell me that was so important."
"So about an hour someone left a basket at my door. It has 3 things in it. Money, a note, and a baby. I-"
"A baby?!?" He interrupts.
"Yes, now let me finish! Anyways, the note said to not give it up for adoption and basically I'm the only person that is suited for Jinae. A-"
"You named her?!?" He interrupts yet again.
"Yes! I mean, no! Just let me finish!! And in the envelop was about 1000 dollars, probably for baby essential like strollers and stuff. I don't know what to do, but I know for sure I'm not going to just put her up for adoption." I say slowly trying to let him understand it all.
He stays silent for a minute or maybe even two. Trying to take in everything.
Finally after a long, and awkward silence he speaks, "Look, I don't agree with you keeping this baby, but it's your decision. With everything happening with Got7 and kpop at it's peak right now, I can't do much to help you. I'm guessing you don't want mom to know?"
"Yeah, she can't know."
"Okay, I'll buy the baby equipment, and I'll let you stay in my penthouse." He says causally.
"What? I can't just take your house and fill it with baby stuff!" I disagree.
"I have to stay in here with the boys anyway. You and Hyunjin can be roommates at my house and when I'm done you should have enough money saved up to buy a bigger apartment." He quickly exclaims.
"Did you say 'you and Hyunjin'?"
"Yes. You must trust Hyunjin enough to tell him about this and him being the first one. I'm not going to let you take care of this baby alone."
I was ready to disagree and argue but I know Jinyoung is stubborn and already has his plan and he isnt planning on changing it.
"Whatever."
"I'll give you my card to go shopping for supplies tomorrow, use as much as you need. Also here are the keys to my apartment."
