After a couple of days more I was again up and kicking. But another week passed with me stuck in bed.
The day of our departure was coming near, our house was almost empty and my car was sold two days after my recovery.
I was getting ready for the party when someone knocked at the door. "Yes?" I yell trying to get into the dress. I looked through the mirror to see Jin's face become so red that a smile crept on my face. "Oppa, just in time, can you zip this up for me please?"
He came near and started to zip it with his eyes shut close. "You should've asked this to someone else. Why me?" he said. I turn around and look at him, his eyes are still closed so I tap his forehead, he opens them and looks at me in disbelief like I just betrayed him.
"Sorry but did you see anyone here other than you? Don't be so shocked. Nothing happened." I said making him even red. "Are you ready to go? It's not far but we have to walk a little. I already sold my baby."
"Don't worry I like to walk, but..." looking at my feet, "...are you ok walking with that thing on?" pointing at the shoes that Hobi made me buy.
"I hope so," I tell.
Before entering Hobi's house I try to fix my dress. I feel naked like this, but if I didn't put this on Hobi and Joy would kill me. This is their farewell gift. I have not left yet and I already miss them. I put the thought aside and I open the door.
"Hey, watch where you're going." Someone yelled at me after I bumped into him.
"I'm really sor..." but the guy stops me.
"What!? you again? Can't you leave me alone? I don't want to dance with you." Visibly irritated.
I tilt my head nervously. Yoon-Suh what the hell did you do again!? "Hey, I just came in!"
"Don't fuck with me it's already an hour that you're pestering me. I already told you no. Why are you still here go to someone else!"
"Hey you walking closet," I tell him tilting my head so hard that I make my neck make cracking sounds. "Do I look exactly like the person who was pestering you? Look at me very well." He looks at me head to toe, while I make my fingers crack, but someone stops us.
"Wifey, you're finally here!!!" Joy ran to hug me.
"Joy!!!" I say hugging her back and forgetting about 'closet'.
Unfortunately, he didn't forget. "Hey, I was talking with her first, scram"
Joy was ready to punch him but Jin's arrival stopped her.
"Nanah, Joy everything's alright?"
"Jin-Hyung?"
"Namjoonie? What are you doing here?"
"Hyung, I was traveling in the States and when I called your home your brother Tae told me you were here, so here I am. But leaving that aside, why did you call her Nanah, isn't her name Yoon-Suh?"
"No, she is Yoonah. Yoon-Suh is her twin sister. Look at the girl in the red dress. That's Yoon-Suh." Jin told him pointing at my sister. "Girls, this is Kim Namjoon, my roommate. He is your age but is a freshman at Uni like me"
The guy starts looking between us and then tells me "I'm so sorry, it's only that..."
"I know, since you are good-looking my sister started to pester you because Hobi won't look at her even for mistakes. I know my sister pretty well."
"Who's Hobi?"
"Oh, it's that guy over there. The one with that gorgeous heart-shaped smile." I wave and call him "Hobiii!!!!"
He runs to us and picks me up to hug me. "Hi princess, you're here finally. Please free me of your sister I can't stand her anymore."
"If I could, I would've already done it. But don't worry from the day after tomorrow you won't have to deal with her anymore." Wrong choice of word.
I see his face darkening and Joy's eyes welling up. So are mine. "Please don't. You know that if I could I would stay here with you."
"Hey, Stob it" Jin tries to say in English, a terrible English, and makes us laugh.
"Hyung, you're English is terrible like always," Namjoon says.
"Ah, Ah, Ah. Hilarious came-back. Not everyone is a genius like you. You know?" looking at us adds, "This guy here has an IQ of 148. It's utterly irritating."
"Wow," I say "Only a point lower than you Joy."
"Ok stop talking about how genius our friends are and let's celebrate," Hobi says taking me to dance. The party was really fun my classmate prepared a gift for us. Obviously, Yoon-Suh was flashy and kitsch like her, a red and pink siren tail blanket. Mine was an art book and a reference book from my dream university. "Guys this is too expansive I can't..." but Jordan stops me.
"Everyone of us put in a little money since you always helped us it's ok like this." I hug him and all my classmates.
Talking to Namjoon I found out his passion for books and art. He is a really cool guy and his smile is so cute. After a couple of beers, he became more talkative and flirtish. "I like you." Taking my hand in his giant one. "Will you go out with me sometimes when you go, come back?"
"Ask me again when you're sober ok, I may say yes."
"I am so-sober." He says blabbering. Sure, you're not drunk uh-uh. "I'll prove to you that I'm not drunk." What came next, left me speechless; He cups my face and crushes his lips on mine.
I don't know what to do so I just stay put not moving; but hey, his lips are really soft. I'm about to give in and kiss him back but someone makes him fly from me. "Are you mad?" Namjoon yells at the person who kicked him.
"You better stay away from her!" Hobi yells at him, placing himself in front of me, and then another voice comes.
"Do you want me to get killed by Yoongi? Do you know how much he loves his cousin?" Now is Jin that's yelling at him.
"Guys please calm down he is drunk," I say but no one is listening.
"What do you mean that he loves her? I'm his cousin too. You mean he doesn't care about me?" Yoon-Suh says clearly dead drunk.
"Not now Yoon-Suh. It's not the moment for your melodramas." I tell her.
"It's your fault that he doesn't like me." Starting crying, here we go the drama queen started.
"You make it yourself. When he told us he was gay you called him 'disgusting freak'" I snap at her.
"Because he is a disgusting freak." She says whining.
I see Jin's back stiffen and his hand close and release. I tap on his back to make him look at me and I shake my head taking his hand and squeezing it. "Now I know why he never talked about her to me." He said with glistering eyes.
I look at Joy and signal her to turn up the volume and I take my two knights to dance. I tend the hand to Namjoon who is still on the floor and make him dance with us. Looking at Hobi dancing made the other two willing to dance. His dancing skills are fantastic, so also I and Joy joined the dancing group.
*********************
All the people left the party taking Yoon-Suh with them, not without her kicking and fussing. Hobi wouldn't let her sleep at his house even for a million dollars. Only I, Joy, Nam, and Jin stayed back; we were all too drunk to drive.
The next morning, I woke up hugged by Namjoon and Hobi. Practically a sandwich, I turn my head and see Joy and Jin looking at us and I reddened instantly. When I get out of their grip I walk to them who are drinking coffee. I took the cup from Joy; she had this giant smirk plastered on her face. "Don't look at me like that, nothing happened. We were just sleeping."
"Yeah, only you can think of sleeping with two gorgeous men at your sides." She says tilting one brow.
"You really want me dead, right?" I look at him puzzled. "If Yoongi finds out about this, he will kill me for sure."
"He won't. I'm not a little girl that doesn't know how to defend herself."
"You may be, but for your cousin you still are the little girl that he needs to protect. And now I understand why, your sister is really one of a kind."
I just smile, then I get up and I go wake up the sleeping beauties. We spent all day together until Mom called me that it was time to go to the airport.
Mom took my luggage to Hobi's home so I got changed after taking a shower. When I was ready, she called a taxi to take us to the airport, but the guys practically begged her to let them take me there. She agreed and we started to go, but while Yoon-Suh was about to hop in Hobi's SUV Mom took her towards the taxi.
While I hop in, I see Hobi thanking her. Strangely she knew for a long time that he didn't like my sister very much, I secretly smiled. Bad Yoonah, bad Yoonah. You shouldn't laugh at this.
I know I shouldn't be happy, but you saw how my sister is. She's the kind of person who throws the rock then hides the hand and lets others take the blame. I love her she's my sister but she really needs to grow up.
"Are you going to start school right away?" Nam asks me.
"No, we will start next week."
"What are you going to do then?"
"I was thinking of searching for work to do after school. I hate to depend on my parents."
"You should relax a bit you know baby," Hobi tells me looking in the back mirror.
"Yes, Hubby is right you work too much. We have exams coming up this year. You can rest and just let it go."
"I know but I want to put some more money away for Uni."
"Well, our university has some advantages you know like scholarships and other things," Namjoon says.
"I will not attend University there I'll come back here for that."
"Why?"
"If I had a choice I wouldn't go back. It's not that I don't like it there, is only that..."
"...that she was bullied by that biscuit and his minions," Joy says in my stead.
"Biscuit?" Jin and Namjoon say together.
"Yeah, that Kookie biscuit."
I can literally see Jin make 1+1 "Kookie that's in Jungkook. The same Jungkook that is my bro's best friend?"
"Yeah, but please don't say anything to your brother, please. I don't want them to know that I will be back. If I happen in their class, I don't know what they could do. Maybe nothing, maybe they will start again, and I don't want that."
"I think I need to put some sense in his bird brain."
"Please don't. Yoongi would kill me if they put you in jail." I say laughing.
"Changing subjects, what kind of work do you look for?" Namjoon asks me.
"Well, here I was working in a book store, but I don't really care it can be also a restaurant a café, everything's ok. The most important thing is that I want to work two or three days a week."
"In that case, I can ask my boss if he is still in need of a worker. I work in a bookstore near the uni."
"Really? Namjoon-ah, can you?"
"Only if you call me Joonie."
"I call whatever you want. I call you God if you like."
"Yeah, God of Destruction," Jin says chuckling. I look at him with a puzzled face. "You will find out pretty soon."
*******************************
It's almost time for us to board. Me, Joy and Hobi start to open the festival of the tears. We try to not cry but we fail miserably.
"Swear that you will call us the moment you land. A-a-and that you will look after yourself. A-a-and if anything happened you will tell us and we'll come right away to get you ok." Joy says sobbing crazily. "I love you wifey and I will miss you to death."
"Please don't overdo ok, and promise, you will call us every day. We don't care what time will be." Hobi says then he whispers something that I kind of already knew. "I really love you. When you come back, please, consider going out with me ok." I nod lightly.
"Ma'am, can't you let her stay, please." Joy pleaded to my mom sobbing and hugging me cutting my breath. "D-don't take her away from us. You can take only her and leave Yoonah here. We don't want her to leave. Please, please." Mom only smiles and goes to do the check-in.
I laugh and hug them both. "I'll miss you guys too. You're the best friend I could ever wish for and I will try to call you every day ok."
I kiss them both and start to cry more every minute.
"Omg stop with the drama. It's not the end of the world."
"Shut up you, where are your friends, hmm. If they cared about you, they would have come to say goodbye." Joy says.
"Well, I told them not to come. They are so busy." She tells me with such cockiness that made me want to puke.
"Yeah. Or simply don't want to see you ever again." Hobi tells her.
"Well, you're here and that's what counts." She says flirting.
"I'M NOT HERE FOR YOU!" he shouts. "You need to put in that bird brain of yours that I don't give a shit about you. Leave me alone."
Mom came back from the check-in and luckily, she didn't hear a thing.
"Girls We need to go."
I hug them one more time and I also hug Joonie and Jin. Telling them "See you later guys."
