Friend Zone 21

Jisoo woke up around dawn because feeling unwell with the room surrounding. The bed isn't comfy like she the one she had at home or is it really? She don't have a clue. She sat on the edge of the bed at stared up to the ceiling. This is the guest room, does he slept here the other day too? she wondered and cares the bed. The shiny thing on the side table caught her attention.

It was a bracelet, and it's very familiar to her. She smiled once it was on her hand. Now, she clearly remember the memories behind those bracelet.

"Kookie! I have a present for you!," the little girl ran to the boy with cheerful joy. The two of them ran away from home to play beside the river since little Jisoo want to be there.

"What is it?," the youngest asked sounds a little confused yet excited about the present too. "Look what I've made!," she exclaimed and pull out a bracelet from her pocket. "A bracelet?," the boy looked at it before he took it. "You made this?,"

"Hm," she nodded and put a smile on her face, "Look, there's our name on it," she pointed the J+J word. "J+J?," he questioned.

"Jisoo, Jungkook! or it could be Jungkook, Jisoo. What ever you want," she sat beside him under the three. "I have one too! You want to see?," she asked and the boys gladly smiled. She raised her wrist to show him the bracelet she's wearing. "Cool,". She was glad he likes it. "Did you make one for Seokjin's hyung too?," he questioned.

"Seokjin oppa is too old for friendship bracelet but I'll make sure he put the ring on my finger," she danced her fingers as she showed him. Jungkook rolled his eyes a little annoyed about her confident. "Remind me in the future, if Seokjin hyung doesn't then I'll do it," he joked.

Jisoo gave him the disgusted looks while he was laughing upon her reaction. "Noona, can i asked you something," Jisoo nodded, "Aren't you asking one?,"

"Will you...," he paused making the girl turn to face him. "Will I?," he sighed, "Will you be on my side forever?,". Jisoo smiled, "Yes! I will be always on your side since day 1,". Jungkook plucked the flowers and make a ring of it, "This is the promise ring," he said.

"Aww, so cute," she looked at her finger, "See? I'm faster than Seokjin hyung,"

Jisoo gave him the death glare, "I thought this is a friendship ring!,". "Based on what I see, your love story is a one side love story," Jungkook pulled out his tongue to annoyed her.

"You little devil!," he ran away as he saw she was about to hit him in the head.

"Hey," Jungkook bent down to her levela and cares her cheeks, "You miss me, don't you?," tears fall through her cheeks while looking at him in the eyes.

"I do, I really do," the knock on the door make the Jungkook she saw disappear in dust just in the blink of an eye. She closed her eyes shut, I wish you're here.

"Jisoo dear, are you awake?," she wiped her tears away and stood up to swung the door opened. "Yes, Fay unnie.. I'm awake," she rosed a smile on her lips, "Great, the breakfast is ready. Let's eat," Fay told her. "Yeah okay, I'll be down in the minute,"

"Okay, we'll be waiting," said Fay as she took her leave. Jisoo put the bracelet back to the where she found it before ran to downstairs joining the couple for breakfast. "Good morning, Jisoo," Seokjin greeted.

"Morning," she answered shortly and took the vacant seat beside Fay. "How's sleep?," he asked. "It was good," Fay hand her the pancake and she thanked her in returned. "Last week, Jungkook pay us a visit. So, he left some of his cloth in closet. I'm sorry if it's pretty messy," Seokjin apologized

"No, it's okay. You guys have welcome me enough," she assured. She looked on her watch to see the time, "I'm sorry I can't stay any longer. I didn't bring extra clothes with me and I have to go to work," said Jisoo as she finished her pancakes.

"Oh, you can use my clothes," Fay offered her, "No, it's fine unnie beside I need to get back home," Fay pouted feeling a little sad about the girl leaving. "Oh, then I can give you a ride. I was about to go out anyway," said Seokjin.

"But.." Jisoo was about to rejected it but Fay pulled her to Seokjin, "It's okay Jisoo.. you'll be late to work if you're not going with Seokjin," said Fay which make Jisoo sighed in defeat since she got the point."Okay then,"

As both Seokjin and Jisoo was in the car, she suddenly feel a little awkward. Is it because she still have feelings to this married man? No. It's because they haven't been hang around for a long time. "So, where do you live?,"

"I like near at the Han River's apartment," she said eyes outside the window not making any contact. "You shouldn't really give me a drive. I can asked Bobby to pick me up," she added.

"Bobby? Who is he?,". Jisoo a little hesitated, if she lied he'll noticed cause the habit of hers still can't change. "Um.. he's my..  boyfriend," she touch her nose and brushed it with her thumb. "You have boyfriend? but your mom said...,"

She sighed once the man mention her mom to the topic, "Okay.. he's not really my boyfriend," she turned to him hoping he don't get mad. "Then who is he?,"

"He's a friend but I went for a blind date with him," Seokjin mouth agaped open. "That's a breaking news," he murmured. "How about JK?," he questioned.

"What about him?," he smirked. "Don't play dumb with me Jisoo. I know you know about he got a crush on you," he teased. Jisoo groaned a little before she think for awhile, "You won't give him a chance?," he asked again as she was deep silence. "I think it's better thay way,".

"Why?,"

"So, no one get hurt in the future," she said while leaned herself to her seat. "I don't get it," Seokjin eyebrows connected in confusion. "I don't want to be in a relationship with him because who knows the feeling that I felt for him was only loneliness inside me. I don't want to wake up one day and feel the sudden change and by that time.. I don't want to hurt his feeling and ruined everything we had," she explained and ended it with a soft sigh. "Is that clear?," she questioned.

"Fair enough,".

Once they were in front of her building, Jisoo turned to him to gave a hug, "Thanks for dropping me off,". "You're welcome,".

"Bye, drive safe," she went out from the car while his eyes was on her until she disappeared. He took his phone out and dialed someone. "Hello?,"

"Hi Aunt Dara, Good morning.. This is Jinnie," he smiled. "Jinnie! What can I help you?,"

"I had a plan and I need your help but first, are you in?".
