Learning to love

Day 50:

Yoongi p.o.v

"Yoonie" Jimin beamed. I could understand how he was feeling right now. He was really happy. I was sitting on the sofa reading a book, but before I could get up to approach Jimin, he tackled me into a hug. Both of us fell on the sofa.

"Yoonie! Yoonie! I am so happy" He giggled, a dreamy expression on his face.

"Yeah? And what made you so happy?" I asked

Though after he answered I wish I had never asked him about it.

"Yoonie...he is so cute" He said, blushing. Blushing....one blushes when one is shy or embarrassed. Jimin was not embarrassed then he must be shy. But somthing else hit me...Did he say 'he'?

"Who?" the words barely came out of my mouth.

"His name is Grey. I went to submit the work files to my office. I met him on the way back. Oh..he is so handsome~ His are grey too. he said his mother named him Grey because of his eyes. Oh those eyes are so beautiful...they are the same color as the thunderstorm clouds. And his face...god! His voice his so deep....." He said practically drooling.

"Well....so what happened was, I was buying some coffee from a cafe....and he came to order the same time as I did. Then we sat together...he talked about he came to Korea six years back. He said at first he had serious trouble in learning Hangul...it took him one whole year to learn Hangul...he still stutters while saying some multi-syllable words but his stutters are so adorable.

He told me about some of his experiences after he came here...he has a nice memory. And he knows his emotions really well...how attractive. He was talking about how his dog died few months...even I cried while listening to the story. You see Grey was bullied in school because he looked different than other...and every time he would cry his dog would lick off his tears.

And then one day he found his dog lying on the lawn, his breathing barely even there. So, when they took his to the vet they said, he was going to die soon. And he cried that time, his dog was lying on his lap. Even when the dog was about to die, his licked his tears away. Like the dog wanted to tell Grey not to cry. He still misses his dog. Oh talking about emotions...you should see how his eyes sparkle when we passed the pet shop. He is really good with animals.

You could see the pain in his eyes every time he looked a dog. But still he would smile and play with the dog. he seems a real nice guy... oh did I tell you his laugh is so addictive. His voice his deep so his chuckles are also low and deep, but still so soothing. We exchanged numbers. He said he wants to meet me this Friday. i am so excited to meet him. Oh when will Friday come?"

I couldn't hear most of his words. Only one sentence kept on repeating in my head

He knows his emotions really well...

The way he said, his tone, the way he looked at me...it was like he was trying to say: You won't understand what he feels like to have emotions, let alone understand them.

My breaths became irregular. I excused myself and went to my room ignoring Jimin's questions. I locked myself in, searching for the recorder...

The whole day I didn't come out...I know it against the company rules, we are trained to help our buyers every time. But I couldn't step outside the room. Jimin knocked on my doors several time that day, asking me if I was fine. Sometimes I replied or sometimes I ignored it. It was like my body knew that if I open my mouth, something else might happen.
