" Why do you always come here? It's so dark,so scary. " he said with a confused look on his face.
" What if some people find comfort in that darkness? Maybe I am one of them." I smile looking at the dark sky ahead.
" I am a nyctophile."

" Taehyung!!! Get up!!!" I open my eyes a little to see seokjin frowning down at me with his arms crossed infront of his chest.
" Get up!!! We gotta go to college!!!" He nudges me with his arm when I refuse.
" Yeah,yeah just five minutes more." I say hugging my pillow.
" Everyone is ready downstairs and we are not going to wait around for you." He sighs.
" Ugh!! Fine!! Why are we attending college anyway?? " I say getting up from my bed, messing up my hair a bit.
" Because we need education and qualification for a job. We can't just keep working at sandwich shop forever. " He hands me a towel and walks towards the door.
" Get ready and come downstairs." He says, looking at me before moving out of my room.
I lay down again for a little while. A sigh leaves my lips as I close my eyes.
We all live together in a small house in Busan,South Korea. We have been living together for over 10 years. Just like me,they all are orphans as well. They never saw their parents. I knew my parents though. The last time I saw them ,I was 9. We were very poor. we hardly had any food with us. One day,my parents went looking for food while I was told to stay where I was,that was outside a coffe shop.
I was waiting for them,but they never showed up. After two days, seokjin saw me and asked me where I lived. Obviously,I had no idea. He took me with him and fed me too. I have been living with him and his brothers since.
A tear escapes my eyes, rolling down my cheek. These days I often myself thinking about my parents. What happened to them?Are they still alive? Why did they leave me? These thoughts would haunt me which would often lead me to crying.
I shake my head, pushing the thoughts of it to the back of my mind and get up. I walk to the bathroom and take a quick bath. I dry my hair using the towel and take some clothes out. A black hoodie and jeans never disappoint me. I quickly put on my jeans and pull the black hoodie over my head while walking downstairs.
I am greeted by the smell of bacon and eggs. I see seokjin flipping the pan with bacon a couple of time before putting it down. He looks over his shoulder seeing me walk in the kitchen.
" Ready?" He takes the bread from the toaster , putting it on the plate.
" Yep." I take an orange from the counter and start peeling it.
" Good. Here's your food." He hands me the plate. " Go sit with the others,I'll be there in a few. " He smiles.
I nod and take a seat near jungkook who was already finished with his breakfast and was on his phone.
