The boy next door

Chapter 1

"Good morning, hun", my mum hissed and gave me a warm cup of tea beofre she kept talking on the phone. It was probably her best friend and they're chatting about the neighbours and spilling the tea like they always do.

I smiled and started to make breakfast for myself because I had to leave for school soon. It was a quite nice day in spring which was not usual for April.

Hopefully summer will be there soon, I thought when my mum suddenly said "Really? Wow, that punk!"

I chuckled quietly wondering about whose son they were talking about right now.

"Okay, Sujin. I'll hang up now", my mum ended the call after she saw my brother Wook entered the kitchen.

"Mornin", he mumbled still half asleep. I got up and ruffled his chocolate brown hair and put my dishes away. He glared at me and stuck his tongue out. I was about to leave to get ready when my mum held me back.

"Wait, Y/N", she said, "two more questions: do you remember Soo Ah's son?" Soo Ah was one of my mother's friends who comes to see my mum from time to time. And yes, I definitely remember her son. I met him only once at our neighbourhood's New Year's party two years ago. It was one of the most embarrassing moments in my life. I kind of liked him back then because I thought he was cute and stuff. And whenever I like a boy my ears turn red and I get a hiccup. He noticed it when he tried talking to me and teased me because of that. It was really humiliating.

What an idiot, I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah I do", I answered, "what about him?"

"Well, Sujin just told me that it turned out he's very good with girls and has every two weeks a new chic", she said shaking her head, "I think his name was Jungkook, wasn't it? Is he at your school?"

"No, I've never seen him..", I said. The playboy image suits him. So I was right with my assumption.

"Keep out of the way of boys like him", my mum said giving me a warning look.

"I will", I reassured her thinking about me being invisible for every boy anyway, "what's the second question?"

"Your dad asked me to tell you that we're all having dinner together in the evening", she said beginning to wash the dishes.

"Why? Where's dad?", I asked frowning.

"He's at work, I think he wants to talk about something", she said trying to play cool but I could see she knew what was going on.

"Okay", I said not asking any further questions, "I'll get ready then."

I went to my room and put on my grey and shabby uniform. I rolled my eyes annoyed with my daily routine. I tried to fix my long hair but it seemed like I had another bad hair day like every other day

.

I need some change. It can't stay this way, I grabbed my bag and left the house. Another day at this crappy school..
