twenty-four 🗝

"Woohoo!" It was already nightime and Jiwoo lit up the fireworks with the rest of the students.

"Where's Minho?" Seungkwan asks.

"I have no idea, but this is fun!"

Jiwoo played a bit more with some of the fireworks when a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist, "What the -"

Minho dragged her near the beach but far from the couples that were dating.

"Hey! It hurts!" Jiwoo stopped and removed herself from his grip.

She faced a furious Minho, "Why did you do it?!"

Jiwoo was confused, "Did what exactly? Lit up the fireworks?"

"You know what you did."

"I don't Lee Minho! So can you elaborate?"

Minho gritted his teeth, "Why'd you tell my family I was coming home for Christmas?!"

"I - I didn't!" Jiwoo stutters. "I don't even know them."

"You're doing it, aren't you? Since I helped you, you're trying to return the favor."

"Okay, I am not someone who butts in others' business and -"

"Just don't bother explaining. Yeeun already told me."

"Minho..." Jiwoo was taken aback when he cut her off. She frowned, "You don't believe me? You'd rather believe Yeeun? When you practically told me not to trust her?!"

"That's not the only thing." Minho balled his fists and raised his voice, "Because of you, Dahyun thinks I don't like her anymore!"

"So? It's not my fault your girlfriend thinks you're a liar." Jiwoo was tired of fighting, so she started to walk away. "Oh, and don't blame me for your relationship mishaps, 'cause you're the one who asked for help in the first place!"

It was 2 days after the party. Jiwoo never enjoyed even a second of it because wherever she goes Minho would either be glaring or avoiding her.

She's now standing in front of Minho's door at the dorms, preparing to knock.

"Noona, you've been standing there for 5 minutes now," Jisung points out, holding a sandwhich. "Are you coming in or not?"

"I - I don't know if he wants to talk," She whispers.

"What did you fight about anyway? I have never seen hyung this upset except when he ran away."

Jiwoo sighs and explains, "He thinks I told Yeeun that he's coming home for Christmas and he blames me for ruining his relationship with Dahyun,"

Jisung nods, trying to understand his hyung. "He has a pretty stubborn head but if you talk it out maybe you two could -"

Before Jisung could finish his sentence, the door opened.

"Minho!"

"Hyung!"

"What are you doing here?" Minho faced Jiwoo, ruffling his hair. "I told you, I don't want to talk. And stop bombarding me with text messages."

"Minho - if you could just listen -"

"I'm not in the mood," He proceeded to walk and enters the bathroom.

Jisung looks at Jiwoo who had huge eyebags under her eyes, "You still want to talk to him? I thought you hate chasing people?"

"Yeah," Jiwoo confessed. "But he's worth the chase."
