Chapter 2
Wednesday, January 7th, 8:00 AM.
Yoon residence, Seoul.
"He's gone?" Jaeha asked while walking towards the island and sat down while Jeonghan was making breakfast for both of them. He nodded.
"Yea, don't know why. Don't care"
"The house is peaceful without him. He would always act like no one else lives here, god I missed this quietness," She said before resting her head in her arms. He laughed in reply before giving her a glass of apple juice. She srunched her nose and took it from him. "Apple is good for health."
"Oh, so sorry, doctor" She replied sarcastically making him roll his eyes and went to complete the breakfast.
"Are you dropping me off today?" She asked before taking a big sip of the juice and started munching on the bites of apple. It was made naturally by Jeonghan. He doesn't like to drink any soda or soft drinks which have artificial flavours so he makes them at home.
"Yea. Today my classes don't start till 11."
"Why? Anything special today?"
"No, it's just meeting between teachers. I'll go to Coups's house before I leave for uni."
"Right~ your second home," she said before chuckling and started to choke on an apple piece. Jeonghan shaked his head and ignored her. She gasped heavily. "Any plans after your day ends?" She asked. Nope, she wasn't choking a few seconds ago.
"Can be. Today is saturday so they probably will give us some work. I'll be at his house. You wanna come?" He asked. Because he doesn't want her to be around their father when she's alone. He could take her with him. While she does her work, they can do their own. Seungcheol has seen her so many time that he considers her his sister now.
"It's fine. I'll go to Seungkwan's. That bastard wanted me to teach him English anyway." She replied and took another sip. He was disappointed. He wished she would come with him but, oh well. "Alright but I'll drop you." He declared so she nodded defeatedly. He packed her lunch as well and put it inside her bag.
8:35 AM.
Yihwa High school.
"See you at 3:30~" Jeonghan bid farewell, waving his hands to his sister who waved back until she was out of his sight. He wore his helmet and drove towards Seungcheol's home. Females who were also going inside gaped at him. He however, ignored it and went on his way.
"That was Jaeha's brother?" A female student asked her friend who nodded in return. "Those are some strong genes. Like man both of them very pretty" She said making her friend nod in return.
Jaeha walked in her classroom in boredom before she grinned when she spotted her best friend. She went and smacked his head. He looked up furiously, well, as furious as he can get because he always pouts when he is angry. "Why did you hit me!?" He before hitting her arm pretty hard making her hiss before sliding the chair beside him.
"I'm coming to your home today at maybe 5, I suppose." She said while holding a smirk, he instantly brightened up and looked at her happily. "Really?" She nodded in return. He hugged her almost immediately. Other students either smiled at the pair or didn't see them. They were really close ever since elementary school. Seungkwan approached her first, introducing himself and asked her to play along with him. She agreed and here they are now. Didn't leave ever since.
"Yah! I can't believe it!" He exclaimed excitedly before his smile dropped a little making her frown. "Wae?"
"Your father?" She signed at the mention of his name.
"Don't worry. My brother is going to his friends house so I asked if I can go to your home instead. He agreed, probably because he doesn't want me near that man."
Seungkwan's face turned to one of his iconic disgusted face before shivering and shook his head.
"Forget it. I'll make your favourite dish and ramen of course. Oh also can we go out for park or something? I heard about this park everyone keeps talking. It's pretty far I think. Seokmin was talking about it in the morning so I asked everything about it" He rambled before looking at his friend who was staring at him deadpanned. "Okay, sorry."
"You got the gossip?" She asked making him smile.
"You know it! So you know that Eunji, right?"
As soon as the class was over, students made a B line out the room. Seungkwan clung on Jaeha, hugging her arm and leaning on her.
"I hate that bastard of a teacher! Who does he think he is!? He said I overreact! like bitch aren't you doing the same?" He complained in frustration while pouting. She patted his head. "Ignore that asshole. You don't overreact. You have emotions, boo." She said making Seungkwan happy.
"Thank you, yoo!"
"Also when are your theatre ending? I'm so bored in the breaks. Like bruh, I'm all alone, you expect I'll be okay?"
"It's going to end soon. They always do when the finals are arriving. And sorry though, I know how you feel."
She was about say something when someone bumped into her shoulder but just kept walking. Seungkwan held so she won't fall before glaring at the guy. "Yah! Can't you apologize!?" he yelled at the person while taking a step in front of her. The person turned back with a neutral face. Seungkwan and Jaeha now realised who they are talking to.
"She was standing in the way. You should watch out or else it will happen again" He said before walking away. Seungkwan furrowed his brows while staring at him, his mouth agape in irritation. Jaeha wrapped her arms around him and led him out.
"Forget hi-" She got cut off when someone called their name. "Jaeha! Seungkwan!"
Turning back they saw their classmate, Vernon.
"Oh, Vernon! Hey," she greeted before lifting her hand for a high five. Vernon gave one before frowning.
"What's wrong?" Seungkwan asked.
"You were talking to Minghao, right?" He asked, worry plastered on his face. This made seungkwan frown.
"Yea. We were. What's wrong with that?" He questioned making Vernon frown more. "I heard whoever talked back to him always end up getting beaten by him. Seungkwan please be careful," He looked at Jaeha. "Also I don't know why he bumped into you but yea, you gotta extra careful. If you ever see him, just....walk away." He said, concern laced in his voice. Smiling at him, Jaeha nodded in understanding.
"He doesn't scare me. He is our senior, right? A class above us?" She questioned making him nod.
"He'll be leaving soon. Two months and woo" She said while making a wind motion out of the gate. Vernon let out a breath. "I'm just worried."
This made grin. "Thank you for your concern, Vernon. We'll be careful as you said but don't worry too much, we'll be fine." She said before he clenched his jaw in worry and smiled back. "Alright, I'll get going. See you tomorrow. Bye"
"Bye!" Both friends waved a bye before seungkwan turned to her. "You think he'll beat me up?"
"Well, if he tried to then just scream for help. Your voice has a high range frequency. Someone will hear and probably come to your aid" she said and immediately received a side kick on her butt. She let out a cry before kicking him as well.
"Where's your brother? I wanna go home and he isn't here yet!" Seungkwan complained. He could go home but leaving her alone didn't seem right to him. Seungkwan is a gentleman.
"He'll be here. Anytime. Any moment. Any second. Any ato-" "I get it!!"
She just earned another kick to her ass.
They talked about what they would do when she comes to his house while sitting on the walls of the school (or compound). Jeonghan came on his bike. Seungkwan jumped off and waved her bye but he stopped him.
"Seungkwan-ah, get on as well, I'll drop you both to your house." he said before looking at his sister who jumped and walked towards him in confusion. "Change in plan. Coups is having hard time with his cousin so he called me come faster." He said before giving her a helmet. She took it but Jeonghan pulled her in for a soft hug. "How was your day?"
"It wa-"
"An asshole bumped into her but didn't apologize and said she should watch out or else it would happen again. Happen again my ass, there was literally a bunch of space!" Seungkwan replied making Jeonghan laugh at his frustration.
He pulled away and montioned his head towards the back. She gave her bag to her brother before giving the helmet to seungkwan. "Wae? You wear it"
"I'll be fine. If we got into an accident then hold me and protect my head with your hands" She said giving him a sarcastic smile while titling her head. Acting cute to annoy him.
Seungkwan looked her disgustingly but reluctantly wore it and sat behind him before hugging her waist. She did the same by hugging Jeonghan's waist and snuggled her face on his back. He wore a jacket so it was soft. As they drove towards Seungkwan's home, she almost fell asleep.
3:37 PM.
Boo residence.
Seungkwan got off and gave the helmet back to her brother while she was in the same position making him deadpan at her. Jeonghan tickled her making her jump.
"I don't wanna let go," she mumbled before Jeonghan turned his head back and gave a pat on her head, he placed his hands on her head and turned it towards Seungkwan who just wanted to get this over with. "Alright alright, my boo. So damn jealous" She muttered and took her bag from her brother, who ruffled her hair and pushed her towards him friend. "Who is jealous? Bitch, watching you like that reminded me of sweet home Alabama"
Jaeha glared at him. "Oh, just admit it. You are jealous!" She turned back before she walked away. "Bye, Oppa! Come back whenever you are going home. I'll see you later!" She said but before walked in, she mouthed few words making him laugh.
I love you.
He drove towards seungcheol's home who is probably crying from frustration.
"Eomma! I'm back!" Seungkwan yelled before taking his shoe off. Jaeha did the same before running towards the couch and laid down and a sign.
"Welcome back, seungkwan. Oh, Jae-ah, you here as well?" Seungkwan mother asked as seungkwan nodded and sat on her feet who immediately took it away and placed it on his lap. "Nae. My brother has some work so he had to go to his friends house. Since I can't be home alone, he dropped me here." She replied before closing her eyes. She is so familiar with that seungkwan's mother knows about her father and treats like her daughter since she doesn't have a mother. She is really grateful for it. Jeonghan bought a gift for his sister's best friend's mother. Thanking her for taking care of his sister. Oh, that just lead mama boo to take care of Jeonghan as well. That was two years ago.
"Alright, are you guys hungry? I'll make something" She said before seungkwan stopped her.
"Eomma, don't. I will make something for her. I promised it after all," He said making Jaeha giddy. His mother was pleased to know the boy she raised is a so nice. She nodded before going to her room.
Seungkwan got up while Jaeha laid on her seat, not moving. Something soft was thrown on her face. She pulled it away while sitting up. They were clothes.
"Go change, I'll make us food~" He cheered while dancing towards the kitchen. She smirked and let out a huff at his antics before going in his room.
A white T-shirt with a simple two line crossing each other with a green hood and green cargo shorts. She folded her cloths and walked out in the living room and stuffed them in her bag.
"What are you making?" She asked after she sneeked up behind him, making him jump in surprise "Ah! Kamchagia" he spoke before holding his face in his hands. She was obviously taller than him so she looked down, not too much tho. "Hagimalrago!!"
"Ah, Araso" She said while smiling. She'll definitely do it again. Looking at the dish, she saw ramen boiling so she took over that while he did his own work. Kimchi was out but she didn't know what he'll make.
She placed the ramen on the counter and equally distributed them in two bowls. She ate it while feeding some to boo. He was done so they sat on the living room table with their dishes. In the middle of making, seungkwan had changed his uniform into the same once like she so they can match. He did bought it for that sole purpose. She has a set as well. Tho, Jeonghan and her have half of their wardrobe for matching eachother.
"Yah, you made one of the best dish ever. This kimchi-jjigae is really amazing! I had one yesterday but a motherfucker knocked it off accidentally. He said he won't pay for since it was an accident." She said before taking a huge bite. This alarmed seungkwan so he took a huge bite as well so she won't finish everything on her own. "Did you fight? Did they pay in the end?" He asked with his mouth full.
"They payed in the end because I beat one of them up" She replied making him sign. "I just hope they don't take revenge".
"Please, don't jinx it"
After an hour, Jaeha was teaching him English. She isn't the best in this field but she is better than Seungkwan. That pride is big for that. She taught the grammer before explaining what the lesson was about in Korean and asked him reply in English. She also helped him in fluency and grammatical mistakes. She didn't change the pronounciation because that will confuse him so she told him that it will take place everyday. She wanted him to have a English talk with her for at least an hour everyday and she will help in pronounciation. Seungkwan is smart, he understands what she is talking about but when it comes him talking, it can be a little difficult.
She remembered that her brother made a new friend in uni who is a LA. She can talk with him to improve her English and maybe ask he would talk with Seungkwan as well but knowing the university boys, they might have trouble in managing the time.
"Yea, true. I wonder how it is like being a college student."
"Sucks. That's what my brother told me."
"Same. My sister said that same thing."
"Wanna drop-"
"Shut up."
Rest of the day they spent playing video games and talking with eachother about random things.
A horn in the front made them pack her things up. Seungkwan picked her phone and gave it her before she bid goodbye to his mom and big sister, who hugged her and waved a bye. Boo and Yoon hugged eachother and a salute as farewell.
She skipped towards her brother who smiled tiredly. He passed her the helmet before starting the bike.
"His cousin are a menace."
"Really?"
"Yea, not more than you though."
"Tsk..."
Rolling her eyes, she dropped the topic, thinking about what to eat for dinner. Ride went peaceful without knowing that trouble awaits at home.
