Aoi's POV
I bid goodbye to Jaehyun and took a deep breath as I checked the time on my wrist watch. It's 9:30, is Miyun still awake? She probably is, I hope.
I shook my thoughts off and pressed the doorbell of her home two times. At first it was dead silent until I heard footsteps walking towards the door, and it opened immediately.
Standing in front of me was Miyun with messy pigtail braids and large, round-framed glasses which I'm guessing are fake. But that isn't the matter.
I may be tired but I'm not lightheaded today.
Instead of saying a thing she poked her head out the door and looked at the left and right of me to see if I was with someone.
I just groaned and shook my head, "There's nobody here with me, Miyun, can I come in? Or stay in for the night? Or something, I just don't want to go home."
She blinked her eyes twice at my own suddestion of inviting myself in.
"Alright then, come in," she smiled goofily and politely let me enter the house. She closed the door behind me and immediately popped herself in front of me.
"What happened, Aoi? Are you okaaaay?" She asked in a childish tone and inched her face closer to mine, putting her hands at her back as she bent forward.
I suddenly heard a small bark coming from behind me, I turned around and saw Miyun's white toy poodle walking towards my direction. Miyun just giggled and picked the puppy up and engulfed it in her arms, that was so fucking adorable. "Oh by the way.. You met Oreo, didn't you, Aoi?" She squeaked.
I just nodded and my gaze dropped on the dog, "Yeah, this dog. She's cute, but I really want to talk to you about something rather important, I don't know, I need a fresh breath of air," I said and she just nodded.

And after a few minutes, we were suddenly situated at the balcony of her house. Miyun told me that her parents are at her grandmother's for the weekend and her sister had fallen asleep. I'm left with her and the nosy little toy poodle trying to poke its nose through the glass just behind the curtains. My fingers tapped on my lap and I struggled to find words to say.
"So, do you want to tell me something? How are you?" She asked and turned her head to me. For some reason she sounds like a therapist or something.
"I feel like you know what's going on, at least a hint. Today, things had been shitty and God knows why. I turned nineteen while the rest of my 'friends' just shut me out and lied to me, then admitted that they were afraid of me. And I came across Jimin's fucking twin and it turned out he himself wasn't even in school today, and I have this strange feeling that all of them are hiding something from me," I furrowed my eyebrows.
She pouted, "Really? Oh, I did notice something different with Jimin though. I mentioned you to him once yesterday and all he did was ignore me, then he blatantly told someone how much he didn't like hearing your name."
My heart literally dropped upon hearing those words coming out of her mouth.
But everything doesn't revolve around him, Aoi, right?
She turned her head to me and put on a sad smile, and then shifted her chair's position closer to mine. She slung an arm around my shoulder, "But don't be sad, Aoi, Jimin probably has a problem with things. In the end I would still route for you two," she smiled.
"Aish, Rina and Joo-eun even admitted that they were scared of me for God's sakes," I muttered. She playfully hit me on the shoulder.
"So what if they are? I'm not afraid of you! I have a principle. If you're nice to me then I'm nice to you, and if you're not I'm still nice. Because that's just how I roll, I guess. They're just being silly, give them a chance," She laughed and I echoed it afterwards.
"Joo-eun and Rina are good friends of mine, they're honest and can be savage but deep inside they're as insecure as I am about things. They'll cool down okay, unless they actually have an issue with you, and that would be weird because there's nothing to dislike about you," she stated.
You're just too nice.
"Wait, so if you know them long enough then that should be the same with Jimin too. You all were probably friends before, then how close are you with Jimin then? How did you meet?" I asked.
She just nodded repeatedly at my statement.
"Um, it's complicated. First, I met his twin Jaehyun first. We were like 6-7 years old back then. And then he told me something about him having a twin, and I was so excited to see another copy of him in real life and I then I met Jimin. Though it wasn't a good first meeting, I saw Jimin getting bullied by a girl," She then started to explain, her smile faltering a little bit.
"I remembered everything about her but her name, and I've never heard of her since. She wasn't a typical girl for sure, and I defended Jimin from her and then- oh wait, I forgot." She then laughed at her silliness.
And for some reason my heartbeat started to beat quicker, and a sudden flashback appeared in my mind before anything else.
"What are you doing?" I turned around, pausing my actions after seeing a girl my age with slightly curled hair and a frilly skirt. Somehow I hated how she batted her eyelashes at me, but it was probably my imagination. I released my grip from the small boy's collar and let him collapse on the floor.
"Oh, so you heard me. What do you think you're doing?" She squeaked and scrunched her nose up.
I raised my eyebrow and formed my arms across my chest, "Me? Wow I didn't know that you would mind. Why don't you go back to playing with Barbie dolls and having tea times with the inanimate stuffed toys hanging around your leaving room to satisfy your loneliness while I mind MY own business?"
The small girl's mouth gaped open in disbelief, "Fine, fine, then that means you'll leave Jimin alone then. He has business too."
"Are you my mom? Who are you to stop me? Do you like him? Seriously, I don't know why you would even bother. All this kid does is to get into people's nerves because he thinks it's so funny, and he can't even find real people to hand out with," I rolled my eyes.
The small princess wannabe ust ignored me and grabbed the other kid's hand and pulled him up and I let them, and I paused to make a comment.
"Girl saves guy, what a mess. What's your name?" I asked her as I lifted my chin up.
My thoughts vanished away from me before I could dig deeper into my thoughts. Jimin? Another Jimin?
"Oh, it's Jimin! Aoi, Park Jimin is calling! What is he up to?" Her eyes beamed after the coincidental ringtone had gone off. She answered the call and pressed it against her ear.
"Jimin-ah? How are you? Where were you today?" Miyun hummed and gave me a wink, then paused to listen to the guy from the other line. "No, I haven't talked to him yet.. Stop talking about other people for a moment, please? I don't like him.."
Him?
I scooted closer to the phone to at least hear what he says.
"Oh, why didn't you tell me? Do you need help with anything?" Her tone suddenly shifted from a cheerful one to one full of worry. "I'm with Aoi today..." she continued after a pause.
After a few more minutes she just reluctantly passed me her phone. Butterflies suddenly started flying around my stomach and tugged on my insides when I got my hand on the phone. I don't know what to feel and why she even gave the phone to me.
"Hello?" Instead of a greeting, 'hello' sounded more like a question after it came out of my mouth.
(Hello Aoi.)
The coldness of his tone travelled up my spine. "Yeah, what's up? Did you ask the phone to get passed to me or is it just Miyun?" I asked casually without even sounding so serious like I always do.
(I asked to talk to you, I just really want to ask you something real quick.)
"Ask."
(What do you think of me?)
I almost started bursting out laughing at his question. "What's with that question, Park Jimin? Is this you because I don't really talk strangers on the phone," I cackled.
(Answer me seriously, can you?)
"I couldn't tell"), really. All I know that I want to mash you into pieces in the best ways possible, and also I.." I love you.
(And lastly, you want me out of your life? Isn't that right?)
"Huh? What the hell Jimin?" I asked in a confused manner and seriously looked at the worried Miyun. "What the fuck?"
(I don't know what other ways do I tell you this but is it okay if I tell you that I don't want to talk to you anymore? Is it okay if I tell you that I'm not interested with you anymore?)
What is this guy even saying?
What does he want?
Does he want to break ties or what??
As if there's any at the first place, SMH.
"Ohhh, I see," my eyebrows furrowed and I clenched my fists, "You're the third musketeer that wants to surrender. What happened? Did you finally come to your senses that you shouldn't like someone than me? Or are you just doing this because of a dumber reason?" I asked him like it wasn't the first time this happened to me.
It really isn't.
(Well, you were right, you're the problem. When will you change, Aoi? The last thing I want to do is actually fall in love with someone with such an unpleasant personality.)
I rolled my eyes and stepped a little away from Miyun to get more privacy.
"Are you starting a fight with me or something? Well, I'm SORRY because I don't want to change for anybody. I didn't beg for you to come to me, Jimin, you initiated everything that happened to us. Remember that. Tell me when guilt suddenly hits you like a truck," I sassily replied, dismissed the talk and handed the phone over to Miyun.
I quickly stood up from my seat and Miyun grabbed my hand so suddenly. A sad smile plastered on her face, "Don't let whoever intends to hurt you get into you, it will all be fine in the end, Aoi."
"All fine in the end," I mocked what she said with a scoff, "That asshole can't even say those words in front of my face."
