Chapter 18

Yumei's alarm went off, she let out a groan of dissatisfaction and her hand went out from under the covers to turn it off. She slapped it off her nightstand and covered her head with the covers.

The door to her room burst opened. "Yumei! Of you don't get up you will be late."

She hugged her covers, "Just five more minutes." Riyu walked forward and pulled the covers from her. "Come now, you don't want to miss initiation."

Yumei sat upwards and looked at her mother. "I am excited, I just feel a bit off."

Riyu dropped the covers and sat down next to her. "Where does it hurt, love?"

Yumei wasn't actually in pain, she was just feeling a bit blah. "Mom, I just feel... I don't know how to put it into words."

Riyu nodded at her. "I understand, you just have butterflies. You will make friends soon enough, just get through your initiation."

Yumei smiled faintly, she hoped she could make friends, well her mother said that she had this ball of light that drew people to her. Riyu ruffled her hair. "I made you some breakfast and packed your bag with your medication."

Yumei scowled at this, she won't be able to do anything physical. She didn't even know what this ignition would be about. "I will be ready in 5."

Riyu kissed her forehead. "You are strong-willed and remember you can do anything."

Riyu stood up and left her room, she saw Yoongi come out of his. "Morning, Yoongi slept well?"

Yoongi looked up sleepily at her, he wasn't a morning person at all. He grunted his 'Morning' and walked down the stairs to the kitchen. Riyu followed when they entered the Kitchen Jimin was already there.

"Good morning, Mei-mei up yet?"

Yoongi didn't answer and sat down next to him, Riyu didn't respond and placed two plates of pancakes in front of them. "Eat up."

Yoongi picked up his fork and poked at the pancake, 'Yumei's pancakes were a lot better.'

Jimin pushed the plate lightly forward, "I have already eaten." Riyu was about to scold them when Yumei entered the kitchen, Jimin grabbed his plate immediately and started eating.

"Good morning, Mei-mei!"

Yoongi stabbed the pancake at Jimin's greeting. He didn't like the way he was playing this game, did he care for her?

Yumei sat down in front of Yoongi and stared at his plate with a perplexed expression. "Morning Jimi! Morning, Yoongi."

Yoongi looked up and Yumei saw that his eyes were puffy she guessed he didn't sleep too well. "Morning, Yumei did you sleep well?"

Riyu placed her plate in front of her, Yumei's eyes widened at it, 'Why did it look so dry?' She picked up her fork, "I have slept well and how about you?"

Jimin pushed his now empty plate away from himself, "The car will be ready in 15." He stood up, "I will be riding with you."

Yumei was happy to hear this. "Yay! Can we go out later?" The kitchen went quiet, Riyu spoke up. "Shouldn't you wait to see how you feel-"

Yoongi pushed the stool back hard and stood up. Why are they treating her like a fragile teacup? Couldn't they see that she is hurting because she doesn't feel normal? Yumei put her fork down, "Thank you for breakfast mom. I'll go grab my things."

She didn't give the others time to stop her and left the kitchen to get her bag. Although it is initiation she still had to keep water and other things with her.

Yoongi's hands were in fists and Jimin wasn't uttering a word. Riyu didn't know how to break the silence this was getting out of hand. Jimin let out an awkward chuckle, "I'll see you in the car." He left the kitchen, Yoongi didn't look up so Riyu spoke. "I prepared the necessary things that you might need, today."

Yoongi looked up at her, "Thank you, hopefully, this initiation goes by quickly."

Riyu smiled and handed him a backpack. "You know it would be two weeks right?"

Two weeks?! How will he evade his brother for two whole weeks? He took the backpack. "She should be fine as long as it is not anything physical, right?"

Riyu nodded. "My guess is, that it would be physical and the worst thing that could happen is if they force her."

"Don't worry, I will make sure that she is looked after."

Riyu nodded and Yumei entered the kitchen again. "I am ready to go." Yoongi replaced his worried look with a smile, the worst thing that could happen was them being separated.

Yoongi took a step forward and walked with Yumei towards the garage, Riyu screamed behind them. "I packed you two lunch!"

When they were out of earshot, Yoongi whispered. "I'll buy us something from the cafeteria."

Yumei laughed.

Yoongi grinned, Riyu couldn't cook to save her life. "Don't laugh."

They entered the garage and Majima held the door open for them. Jimin was already seated and the scooted in. Yoongi wasn't sure if he liked the fact that Jimin was riding with them but it made Yumei happy so he will go along with it for now.

Majima closed the door and climbed in the driver's seat, the garage door opened and Majima started the car.

"Namjoon!"

Namjoon turned over in his sleep, who was screaming? Can't one sleep in peace?

"Namjoon!" His bedroom door burst open. "Namjoon!  You are going to be late!"

Namjoon groaned and sat up. "Late for what?"

His mother rolled her eyes. "Class!"

His eyes widened, 'Class! Yumei!' He pulled the covers from himself. "I am up," His mother laughed. "You are absent-minded."

She left him alone and he opened his closet door to get dressed. When he picked up his bag, he swung hit on his shoulder the sling and it fell to the floor. "Nooo, this is like the third one this week!"

He emptied the contents of the bag on his bed and looked around his room for a new bag he could use. There wasn't even one that was remotely usable. It looks like he would have to carry his books today. "I'll go buy a new one," he sighed.

He looked at the contents, 'I will need my notebook and a pen.' He was about to go out of the door when he turned around. "Dimwit, you can't leave your textbooks."

At least he only had one class the only book that was left was Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. 'I should leave it for today.'

He still didn't have a plan on how to talk with Yumei, he will scout her out and then just let it play out.

He led this room and went downstairs his father was sitting at the table reading the newspaper. "Morning, Joonie. Slept well?"

He grabbed an apple, "Yes, thank you."

His father noted that he didn't have his bag around his shoulder. "Where is your bag?"

Namjoon let out a slight chuckle. "It kinda broke."

His father folded the newspaper. "That is the throw one this week, what are you doing with them?"

Namjoon didn't know how to answer his question, he just picked it up and it fell from his shoulder. "The sling snapped."

His father rolled his eyes, Namjoon couldn't help it everything he touched broke in his hands, okay well not all the time but mostly. "I'll get a new one on my way home."

His mom kissed him on the cheek, "Do not wander off now." Namjoon saw that they were looking at him with worried expressions and he was lying about that he would stop looking but he had to ensure them that he was over this business. He smiled, "Tae and I only have a few things to do at the mystery club then we are going to play some games at the arcade."

He saw the relief in their faces and he bid them goodbye, leaving the house he grinned as he saw Jin and Hoseok waiting in the driveway. "I didn't know you guys would pick me up today?" Jin was leaning against his car and smiled at Namjoon. "We thought we would surprise you."

Namjoon smiled at them, but this was suspicious they never came to pick him up before and the other question was, how did they know where he lived? "This is a surprise!"Hoseok took a step back to let him climb in, it was a two-door mustang. Namjoon slid into the backseat of the car, Jin and Hoseok followed suit, "We haven't hanged out in a while, guys."

Hoseok turned his head back slightly. "Since we started University, we have just been so busy with the basketball team." Namjoon shifted in the seat, "I keep forgetting you are in the sports teams." Jin started the car and reversed. "You never come and watch anything related to sport anyway, Joonie. But to the day we embark in a new adventure with some freshmen."

Namjoon zoned out after the mention of watch sports. "What are you going to do to the freshmen this year?" Hoseok turned his gaze to the front. 'We are going to divide them into two groups and have some Olympics."

"You want to do the Olympics with freshmen for two weeks?"

Jin chuckled. "Don't be daft, Joonie each day we will do something different." Jin was speeding a bit now. "So we were wondering if you'd like to contribute to our freshmen initiation?"

"Depends on what you are looking for?" He didn't know what he would be able to do in this initiation. He was a novice detective with a love for mysteries.

Jin stopped at the University. "How about a big mystery party at the end of the two weeks initiation."
