We handed the dessert to the others and then we sat down to enjoy it. I sat on the lovers seat that Suga as sitting on initially . Jimin came and joined me. J-hope and Jin sat on the chair opposite us. V was seated between them but on the floor. Jungkook was seated infront of the TV, he was busy fleaking the channels on the TV with the remote. Suga was seated on an arm chair near the chair Jimin and I were seated on and RM was lying on a chair bed. Jungkook got frustrated and muted the TV and then he started staring at me again.

" Jungkook,I know you want to ask me something just go ahead. You don't know when you will meet me again." I said
" What is there to ask. He does not have that right." Jimin said looking at Jungkook angrily then he rolled his eyes and looked at me.
" Jimin, don't you think you are becoming too childish?" V asked.
" My heart, V is right, whatever beef you have against each other has nothing to do with me anyway and if you continue like this, I will call mama and tell her."
" Don't tell mama, ah forget it. Jungkook am sorry. You can ask anything. Not only him. I know all of you have questions about us. Ask away."

RM was the first. He even put down his dessert and looked at us, " tell us about your children, no, first how did you meet?"
" Yes how did you meet and why is it that we have never heard of you or seen you around." Jin asked.
" My question is that do your parents know about your children? " J-hope asked.
" So many questions. I will answer to my level best. We met in middle school. Jimin was in Yonsan Middle School while I was at Youngsan International School.I joined it at the age of fourteen after transferring from Seoul Foreign School where I did my day care and kindergarten and then moved to Daeil Foreign Language school at Seongbuk-gu for my primary education. We were also in the same class at the Just Dance Academy."
"Hold up, you were in Seoul and Daeil schools. Like dude, who are you?" RM asked.
" Yeah, those schools are way to expensive for a normal person. You must be a chaebol or something." J-hope addad.
" I can't really say so. You see, we are family friends with Lee Taemin of SHINee. Being that my parents are always traveling around, I used to go with them, my big sister and I. I don't even remember making friends apart from I.M of Monsta X whom I met at the U.S. His dad was also traveling so much. There was a time that they wanted me to stay with Tae's family and go to school with him, but the brat decided that he will stop going to school in kindergarten and the mother just agreed. Hell, if I tried that with my mom, the outcome could have been so shocking. My dad didn't want to subject me to the public scrutiny that the public school could have subjected me being that I am black and also the trauma that Tae went through, that is why the international school was the best option for my sister and I. My sister Brenda was taken to an international school in Kenya while I remain here." I said and then looked at them. From the faces, I know they were all shocked. I guess I expected that, like you can't talk about learning in south Korea's prestigious institutions and not get the same reaction. I can't even tell them that I am pursuing a master's degree in  theology from the Catholic University of South Korea without sparking the reaction.
" So, it seems that you know so many languages being that you were in foreign international school ha!" Jin asked.
" I try my best. I remember in Daeil I did Chinese, Japanese, French, Spanish and of course English which was the language of communication in our house, I learnt Swahili, Portuguese, Dholuo and Thai while in Kenya. I can also speak Tagalog, Taiwanese and Mandarin that I learnt while at a debate competition at China when I went to represent my school. That is where I also met Jackson of GOT7 and Lucas of NCT." I said and then started looking at Jimin.
" Seriously I don't believe you. We were in the same dance academy and yet we never met." Jimin asked
" Just Imagine. In Kenya we have a saying that Dunia ni kama ball gum meaning that the world is too small. Anyway, We had a tradition of having an exchange programme between the two schools and that time. Jimin managed to be chosen to come to our school. Although we were not in the same class, I had already known him from the dance academy. One valentine's Day he was bullied to come to our class and give our school beauty flowers. It was very funny. I still remember a little chubby boy coming to a senior's class with roses to give a girl. At that time the teacher had just stepped out after our last class to lunch. Then the whole class kept quiet waiting to see this movie unfold before our eyes. So there comes Jimin with flowers and he was like," Excuse me Rose Kim... My name is Park Ji.....mi..n annnnd I just b...brought you these rose just like your name to wish you a blessed valentine's Day. Please accept them, please...."
