OCTOBER, 1997, SEOUL
- "Park Ji-Min lunch is ready. Drag your sister homeeeeee."
- " Jung Ho-seok come backkkkkkk"
- "Yoon-gi ah food is getting
colddddddd"Hearing this sharp at 2 was a routine habit of all the residents of the Gwangju locality. And today was just another day in the noisy locality. The afternoon sun had annexed the mid sky and a soft wind blew by, adding more life to the autumn afternoon.
" Aish! Moon hee-joon ssi is just about to step up. Omma!! Oi Jimin cover for me in front of omma." - you shrieked patting your younger brother on his shoulder as you brought an annoyed look on your face.
" Aniyo, no. Noona last time too you did the same. See here, you all see here..." - Jimin made himself sound as if he was being reasonable as he pulled up the hem of his knit sweater to expose a mark on the side of his belly "...omma gave me this while I was defending Noona."
All the eyes in the room soon began giving you gloomy looks.
"Aish, are you all my friends or his" - You yelled.
"Aigoo, why do you give your younger one such a hard time."- Yoongi said as he pitifully caressed Jimin on the marked area.
"Didn't you know we picked him up from a garbage bin....Aigoo...aigoo... omo..Hee-joon ssi...ahhh...Hee-Joon" you didn't even finish up your reply as you nearly cried out of joy watching your idol come in the focus of the screen of the tv you all were gazing at.
"I undoubtedly dance better than those bunch of monkeys. Don't I?" - Namjoon asked spreading his legs out, intensing his gaze at the television screen.
Hoseok and Yoongi shook their heads in agreement but quit their motion as soon as you glared at the two.
" Jiminahh....will you come?" the voice yelled again.
"Noona....."....Jimin stood up anxiously and was followed by Yoongi.
"Oppaaaaaa...the food is getting coldddddddd....commmeee back" - a younger voice yelled out.
Spontaneous to that call, Hoseok stood up.... " Ah, I'll go now. Ay Y/N- ah enough now. Go home. Ajhumma will choke her voice if she continues screaming.
"Ugh.." you stood up reluctantly.
"We can watch the replay tonight anyway. Stop being grumpy."- Namjoon stood up in order to see you all off.
" Hee- Joon ssi no one understands what true love is. Don't miss me too much." - You looked back at the television and spoke up dramatically as you raised you arm in the air, your finger pointing the television screen.
"Aish, aish, aish, yaaa do you know what a shame it is to be your brother." - Jimin said only to receive a huge smack on his face.
" H.O.T forever." - you took a breathe of pride.
"Y/N-ah do you want to dieeeee??" - your mother's shrill voice yelled again.

"Isn't it amazing the way Ji-Hoon hyung somehow always manages to fail in the examinations?" - Namjoon spoke up as he popped open a packet of potato crackers.
"Yaaah!!!..he is my brother you know!"- you protested, snatching away the packet from Namjoon's hand who returned you a gloomy look.
It was evening, around 5 and pretty much alike the other days, the neighbourhood was noisy today too. And adding to the noise was the occasional laughters of the women of the neighbourhood, who usually gathered together around this time to have a drink together and gossip about their families.
"I wonder what sort of shame it is for Ajhumma to have three kids one of whom doesn't know the meaning of passing in exams and the other two who haven't yet discovered the purpose of life."- Hoseok muttered as he picked up a peice of potato cracker from the packet you were holding onto.
Jimin shot an immediate look of annoyance at him but Hoseok continued grinning merrily.
"When is your mother getting married by the way?"- asked Suga as he finally took a seat beside Hoseok who now looked at him to exchange a smile.
"Coming Saturday."- Namjoon replied ignorantly as he scratched his head and then pushed himself back to rest his back on the wall, yawning.
"So....you are planning to attend?" - You asked moving your head towards Namjoon, still munching onto one of the potato crackers.
"Not really....Hobi pass me one....Dad will attend I guess."- Namjoon said as he yawned again.
"Didn't you get a sleep today? Why do you always look so pitiful. Aish...."- Jimin asked Namjoon as he pitifully looked at him.
"Didn't you see your Noona hidiously slipping out of your house after lunch?" - asked Suga as he patted you on your shoulder. But little did he expect that you would try one of your newly learned ju-jitsu tricks on him out of your disgust.
"Ah.......aish"
"Yaah! Y/N-ah why do you have everything but intelligence?"- Hoseok shrieked as he immediately pulled himself further towards Suga and slowly caressed him.
"Did you learn this from that Hee-Joon too?"- Namjoon asked as he gave you an annoyed look.
"Yaah!!! Y/N why do you even have to try such things?"- Jimin yelled but was soon shut down as you squawked "Do you want to die? Where are your honorifics? Ya Jiminah!!"
"You are my twin anyway!"- Jimin mumbled as he looked towards Hoseok and Suga, his pitiful eyes demanding for some support.
A couple of eyes immediately shot a look at you, all at once.
"What? Why are you looking?.....I am 5 minutes older!!!Yaaah!!!!"
