Chapter 9

Third person P. O. V

I-I can't believe this! Can someone even live like this?!

Jin thought while scanning his new home.

There were clothes, books, bags and many other things that Jin couldn't make out in the pile that was in the living room.

Are they really that busy that they can't even clean the house by themselves?

They do but that's only on weekends when they are free since on weekdays they are tired after practice and want to only rest after returning home.

They only do dishes in turns because they hardly use their utensils as ramen or boiled chicken breast would be their meal most of the time and because they can't afford everything required in the kitchen.

I can't sleep like this. My mind won't be at peace if I don't clean this first.

With that, Jin starts cleaning up.

First, he picks up the clothes then separates them into tidy and untidy ones. The untidy ones go into the basket while the tidy ones are folded and kept on the shelf temporarily as he doesn't know where else to keep them.

Then he proceeds with the books and the bags. He puts the items in the bag then hangs them where the other few bags were.

He then proceeds to clean the floor. The floor was a bit sticky as if it has been wiped carelessly so he tries to find a bucket to fill with water, liquid cleaner, and a mop but he only found a mop.

Shopping list- cleaner and a bucket.

He then proceeds to mop several times until the stickiness was gone before proceeding to the dining table.

The dining table was dusty as it was not used for a long time so Jin tried finding a sponge to clean it but there wasn't any.

Shopping list- sponge for cleaning and spray to sprinkle water.

He then cleans it with tissue papers while sprinkling some water on the table.

He then goes into the kitchen and see it fairly clean then he opens the fridge only to find nothing meaning that the kids don't cook nor eat homemade food.

He also notices the lack of utensils in the house.

Shopping list- utensils, ingredients for a week's meal.

------------------------

Jin drives to the nearest market to buy the items he needed then comes back.

He bought an extra laundry basket, bigger this time, as one more member is added and also because the previous basket is already full.

He then places the mop in the bucket he bought and the detergent in the closet where other home cleaning items were along with the sponge he bought.

He places the new plates and utensils in their respective space.

He wanted to buy more items that were lacking in the house but refrained as there isn't any space in the dorm after all it had only one room, a kitchen, a bathroom, a living room with a dining table and no tv.

Jin sees the time and it was 3:00 AM so he decides not to sleep as he sleeps daily around 09:00 PM and wakes up at 4:00 AM.

He kept his bag in a corner and took out an outfit for his morning exercise.

He is not going to the gym but rather does yoga, stretching, push-ups and few more exercise by himself then go jogging.

After returning from his jog, he showered. The time is now 5:00 AM so he starts preparing breakfast for everyone then eats his share by himself.

The members started waking up by 5:30 AM.

''Jungkook, get uppppp!!'' Jimin screams, tired from waking up the heavy sleeper.

''I will wake him up'' Jin offers then touch the youngest's nipples, waking him up.

''Get up and have some breakfast''

All the other members woke up as well after the commotion in the house.

''What's going on...'' Yoongi asks trailing off after seeing Jin in the house.

''Get dressed and come eat. I have to drop the kids to school too, the manger told me to, so get ready fast''

Everyone were sitting still which made Jin huff.

''The last one will do the dishes''

Everyone sprint in their respective directions then later came out to see the food already placed on the table.

''We didn't have any ingredients so how did you make this?'' Namjoon asked.

''I bought them last night''

''You came in yesterday?'' Yoongi questioned.

''Yeah. Don't judge my cooking if it doesn't taste good I only cooked Korean cuisine for my mom sometimes so I'm not that perfect''

''This is amazing, hyung!'' Taehyung said.

''Hyung? But we are not blood-related''

''Yeah, but since you are older we are supposed to respect you. Its Korean culture and ethics. Where were you living all these years?'' Hoseok added.

''America''

''Then why did you come to Korea? and you look Korean too'' Jungkook asked.

''My father wants me to become an idol and my mother wants me to be an actor so that's why I'm here. And as for my looks, I got it from my mom. She is Korean but my dad is Australian''

''So you are not passionate about your dream? because we all are'' Yoongi said.

''I'm passionate about it because nothing is more important to me than making my parents proud and I will do anything for them''

Jin then stood up.

''Wait! did you clean all these?'' Namjoon asked, ready to thank him.

''Yeah, I already folded your clothes so place them as you wish, wash your clothes, vacuum the place, no need to mop, wipe the table with the sponge in the bathroom closet, and the last one will do the dishes''

''T-Thank you'' Namjoon bowed on behalf of them.

''Your welcome but we need to have some serious discussion about our house maintenance because we have to live together for a long time. I never saw anyone so irresponsible-''

''Okay, okay thanks for your feedback, you don't always have to be so blunt. We are still young.....'' Jimin said while pouting.

Jin smiled at that, a genuine smile after a very long time. If his acquaintance or his parents were here they would have surely made a big deal out of it but since Jin never saw anything wrong with himself he didn't notice his smile either.

''And I thought you were lying about doing the dishes'' Taehyung added, also pouting since he was the last one to be done.

''Hurry up, I have to drop you three off''

They again sprinted in their respective directions then came out.

''Lets go'' Jin said, the younger ones followed.

----------------------

The drive was comfortable. Jungkook was asleep beside Jin while Jimin and Taehyung were talking about something. Soon, they reached the school.

''Wake up Jungkook''

Jin nudged his shoulder and woke him up.

''You have a great talent, hyung. You can wake up the Jungkook!'' Taehyung exclaimed with a boxy smile, Jin chuckled.

''Just how much do you bother them that they are saying that, kid''

Jin said with a toothily grin.

''Not you too, hyung..'' Jungkook whined, already done with his other brothers.

''Ok, go inside. I will watch you go. I might not come to pick you up so we will meet up in the company building''

The three nodded and went inside.

Leo face-called Jin soon after.

''Sir we have a situa-are you smiling?'' Leo asked, already cutting the call after taking a screenshot.

''Hey wait, Leo!''

Why is he making a big deal of it?

Jin thought before shrugging then drove off.

--------------------

''The decision we made was right after all!''

''Yes, mam!''

Leo had called Jin's parents and sent them the screenshot.

''I'm glad we did this for him and I'm glad my wife sent you there for him''

''I'm glad that I came here too, sir''

They were happy that their son has started to become 'normal' again even though it's only been a few days. Seems like all he needed was some human affection which he couldn't get back home due to being engulfed in work. Being around fake people with a fake mask.

''So are you going to call him back now? We just need to give him attention more than usual''

''No. Staying there keeps him away from the office which makes it easy for him to forget his work and engulf in his surroundings, among his friends''

''But he still does work here''

''It's restricted at least. Here at home, there will be visitors, business parties and he will for sure not sit quietly watching his brother and father work so it's better to stay there''

''But-''

''No buts. Did you see him talk about work ever since he went to his dorm? or even call you to ask about any file? you know that he would continuously be on phone with you when he was here, almost like a married couple.
''

''Yes you are right, mam''

''And I'm sure that with his tight schedule he won't have time for his work''

''I made sure to keep his schedule pack, you just make sure he is healthy and stress-free, ok?''

''Yes mam''
