"I can't believe this." Miyeon mumbled behind the shower, literally beyond pissed at how her life had turned out at that moment.
Not that it wasn't already shit anyway.
Her situation currently resided to her being stuck in a luxurious bathroom of a too large house of a snobbish rich family and currently that said family were trying to knock down the bathroom door.
"Come on window... what are you made of honestly?" She groaned in annoyance. Finally the latch opened and she hauled herself through, holding on to the ledge as she climbed out and landing on the roof outside.
A crash was heard behind her as she then rushed to pull the window shut, closing it just in time to see a young man staring at her in pure rage.
He hammered at the bulletproof glass as she smirked at him, his eyebrows now furrowed in frustration as he fiddled with the latch. She looked down and saw Jimin smiling up at her in the unnecessarily large grounds. She then scrambled along the roof, climbing down the pipe on the side and then let go.
She fell into her brother's arms and steadied herself.They then broke into a sprint, past the large set of cars and through the security hut where the guard was out cold.
They ran and ran, laughing wildly, leaping onto parked cars along the street and nearly tripping over their worn shoes.
They finally made it to a closed off building, shimming their bodies through the forced hole in the wired fence and treading on the old police tape. They unlocked the front door with one of the keys around their necks and went through the front.
They walked through the old building, reaching the staircase at the end of the corridor and they began climbing.
They finally reached the 9th floor and Jimin unlocked the door. Miyeon locked it behind them and switched on the light.
It was dry and clean, thanks to the worn out vacuum in the corner by the door and the garbage chute they used by the window. They had no electricity, so a couple of oil lamps and old candles were repeatedly lighted until they were replaced from those that were tossed at the back of Jerry's Lanterns.
There was a large plastic bucket which is where they bathed themselves, the idea of privacy was long gone due to the use of only one room. They had bags of dry food luckily and took to taking cooked meals outside with the others. That in particular they would do tomorrow.
To top it all off, there was a mattress on the floor and a tinker bell blanket on top to protect them from the cold. Luckily however, their toilet still did flush.
Jimin removed his Tom and Jerry t-shirt and sat on the bed, beckoning Miyeon over. She joined him, snuggling into his arms, welcoming her brother's warmth. They kicked off their shoes in the process, the muddy soles landing in a corner.
"Did you get anything?" He panted, still recovering from the running. She held up a ruby necklace, along with a sapphire brooch in the shape of a fan and he smiled widely at her.
"Shove it down at the pawn shop tomorrow and in the early morning. They won't figure out anything is missing until someone decides to wear it." He chuckled, hugging her tightly. She nodded, smiling happily.
"We can get some new clothes for you." He said quietly as he got up and took a packet of dry crackers and a water bottle out of a bag.
He sat with her again and fed her, drinking water while she nibbles on the food he offered her. "It's okay." She said quietly.
"That shirt will become a bra if you keep wearing it. If I wash it one more time it will tear." He chuckled.
"Okay." She laughed.
She thought about that night afterwards, when Jimin was asleep on her chest and she was awake, staring at the damp patch on the ceiling.
That guy looked angry.
She chuckled as she remembered the boy at the window, trying desperately to open the latch.
"Shame..." She signed.
