Learning To Fly

Jimin pov

"Left, right, left, right..."
I chanted as I climbed up the rope ladder, stiff and sore for PT.

I got home to find everyone waiting for me at the dinner table, doing homework or sitting on phones.

"Oh, Jimin ah! There you are, how was PT?" Mrs Choi asked while stirring some ramen in a huge pot.

"Same as always, I'm so stiff!" I said, sitting down at the table.

"Is everyone hungry?" Mrs Choi was walking over with a massive pot of ramen.

"Yeah!" Everyone shouted, helping themselves to the bbq flavoured noodles.

Everyone talked about their day and 2 kids got into an argument about what anime was better, Naruto of One punch man.

"Just admit it! Naruto is so much better!"

"No! One punch is the best!"

"Boys, calm down! Why can't you just respect each others opinion?"
Mrs Choi said, standing up from her seat at the top of the table and walking down to separate the boys, who were starting to fist fight.

After they were separated and sent to bed, the rest of us went into the living room and sat down on the sofas.

I went to my room first and took off my brace, letting my wings fall lifelessly to the floor by my feet. I w
alked back to the living room, making noise as my wings banged against each stair behind me.

I walked through the doorway and sat down on the nearest sofa, some random American drama was on the TV, I paid attention and tried to catch up with the storyline.

"What's happened so far?"

"Blondie is having an affair with orange guy and boyfriend 1 is about to find out."
Replied Taemin, one of my room mates.

"Oh, OK."

The episode finished and all filed out of the room, me last because my wings might trip someone up.

Everyone parted into age groups and said goodnight, disappearing into their bedrooms, me and a few others were left climbing the staircase right to the top where out bedrooms were.

"Doesn't it hurt when your wings crack off the stairs like that?"

Asked a kid who was very new, he came about a week ago and noticed that whenever Jimin was home, he let his wings drag along the floor. He also got up earlier than everyone else and went to "PT" sessions, what did that stand for?

"No... not really."

The kid shrugged and went to brush his teeth.

I had already brushed my teeth so I went into the room I shared with Taemin and changed into pjs, its always a struggle getting changed, especially the top half.

Most people think nothing of it but for me, I had to slip my wings into the rings installed in the ceiling, pull the item of clothing over my head, uunhook my wings again then pull my them through.

Half the time I'm sweating by the end of it, that's why most of my clothing zips or buttons up, its easier.

I lie down and fall asleep fairly quickly.
