Shuffling around in the sheets, the warmth penetrating the room heated Hana's body while letting out a yawn. Morning like these are usually loved by her; today, however, is different in every aspect.
A soft knocking interruptes Hana's thoughts and she slowly opens her eyelids. Jimin stands with a smile on his lips and she smiles back.
Taking that as a permission, he enters the room and closes the door softly behind him. While he walks with suble steps towards Hana's bed, she on the other hand sits up straight and leans her back against the headboard.
Jimin sits beside her and leans back comfortably. No one speaks for a moment as tense air surrounds them. Extending his hand forward, he places it over his sister's hand and takes in a deep breadth.
"Hana, there has been so many questions in my mind lately about you. I–I know you are old enough to make decisions but I can't help my brotherly instincts acting up when I hear you cry in your room."
The latter painfully smiled at that. She knew her brother, Jimin, was aware of her pain for he has always cared about her well–being and happiness. Jimin was Hana's personal counsellor and she couldn't have asked for any other thing except her brother's love and guidance.
"You don't have to worry about me. I'll be alright." She mumbles with her voice as sweet as honey.
Jimin draws irregular shapes at the back of Hana's hand with his thumb and says. "How can I not? You are not even telling me the issue which you're dealing with. I want to help you Hana. I really want to."
"I know you do. But, this matter should be sorted by myself. I need to be stronger and start making decisions by my own." Hana sucks in a breadth as a vivid imagery of Jungkook three days ago plays in her mind.
Three days earlier, a fuming Jungkook was again seen. Hana could have swore that at that very moment she never wished to see her boyfriends face ever again in her entire lifetime.
"I don't know what to say right now." Jimin squeezes her hand a bit in comfort. "But, just know that whenever you'll need me, I'll be right here by your side. I'll be ready to fight with anyone for your sake Hana."
Regardless of the fact that she didn't wanted to cry all over again, Hana couldn't help when a tear slips down her eyes whilst the rest falls in later. Taking Jimin by surprise, his sister jerks her hand back from his and sobs while covering her face.
On a regular basis, seeing a girl crying so badly in front of Jimin would have made him worry, but Hana was firstly his sister, his friend, his family, his blood. She was Jimin's Park Hana and then a girl.
So, he wrapped his arms around her shoulder and let her cry her heart out in her brothers embrace. In that very emotional moment, Hana honestly felt safe.
She felt home.
Jimin stays by Hana's side when she leans back once again and rests her head on the latter's shoulder. With her gaze fixed on the window filling the room in with a hue of orange and red light, she closes her eyes and imagines her first ever nightmare.
