Chapter 25
-Two Months Later-
It was when the year was coming to an end and Eunhi's first exams were going to start.
Being nervous, she sits on her desk, hair tied up into a loose bun and a cream fur coat warming up her body.
A steaming cup of hot chocolate rests beside her table lamp, which flickers a dim light on the flat surface as she slowly turns the pages of her heavy brown course book.
It's really dark outside. It's only six in the evening and it already looks like late nine in the night.
She randomly keeps an eye on the glass window beside her table, in case it starts snowing. And yes, she loves the snow.
Sighing and leaning back into her chair, she huffs out a breath as she keeps tapping the pen on her forehead, petrified.
Jimin had gone out for too long, and the thoughts keep nagging her as she gets up and walks to the window, and pushes it up, the chilly cold air hitting directly on her face makes her shiver as she squints her eyes to glance around.
Then something white starts falling from the sky, oh it's snowing!
Smiling to herself, Eunhi extends her hand out as the small flakes land on her palm, and she giggles before closing her hands in a fist and feeling the chilled air hit her, a familiar feeling building up in her mind.
"Dad mom look at this!"
Little Eunhi chimes as she walks to her parents, a small snowball in her hand and a wide smile plastered on her face.
"It's so cold! Leave it or you'll get sick." Her mom smiles as she holds her hand and shakes it so the lump falls back on the ground.
She pouts before turning around and seeing her elder brother making something big and round with the snow.
"What are you doing oppa?" She takes small steps as her feet keep digging in the thick snow, and she slowly makes her way to the 11 year old who was busy digging out snow with his small plastic shovel.
"I'm making a snow man!" The boy smiles as his gums shine along with his white pearl like teeth.
"Snow man?"
"Yes. It's just done." The boy says as he takes out two sticks and stick them at the sides of the snowman and smiles proudly after turning back.
"Wow, Yoongi. This is so cute." Their parents walk to them as his father pats his head, grinning.
"Since I made this, I'll name it Yoonman!" The boy says sheepishly as he turns around to face his mum.
"Yoonman is too cute for this little guy." His mother pecks his cheek before glancing at the snowman.
"Let's go inside, who wants coffee and marshmallow?" His mother smiles before turning around and Yoongi and Eunhi follow behind her quickly.
"Me!" "Me!"
Having a flashback of those amazing times, Eunhi blinks as she realises she's been sticking her hand out for too long. It's almost wet because of the snow.
Closing the window and exhaling deeply, she walks back to her desk, rubbing her hand on the side of the fur coat and continues to read, sipping onto the hot chocolate in between.
She hears the familiar voice from outside as the sound of footsteps echo in the lobby, signalling Jimin is back. But he's not alone.
A radiant laugh rings outside, and Eunhi gets up as she recognises who it is.
It's the sunshine boy.
Sliding into her soft cozy slippers, Eunhi reaches out to the door as she peeks from the side, revealing the two men walking towards Jimin's room.
"Where's Eunhi?" Hoseok asks as he follows behind Jimin.
"Keep your voice low. Maybe she's sleeping." Jimin hushes as he turns around, and enters his room.
Without saying any other word, Hoseok nods as he walks behind Jimin and lightly shuts the door with a small click.
Eunhi sighs as she opens the door and slowly steps out, and notices two jackets firmly hung near the shoe-rack. It seems like they got wet because of the snow.
Not wanting to interrupt them, she turns back and enters her own room to get back to studies.
After about one hour, the snow stops and Eunhi yawns before lazily getting up from her desk and walks to her bed throwing herself in the soft duvet.
A click of the door makes her hurriedly get up as she quickly jumps and runs to the door, to atleast say goodbye to Hoseok.
But it's late. When she reaches out, they're already gone.
Huffing out a tired sigh, she scurries to her window as her gaze falls on the two men, walking out of the dorm gate.
Hoseok is smiling as he wears another jacket, which seemingly belonged to Jimin. And Jimin laughs with him as Hoseok turns around and....
Presses a soft kiss on Jimin's rosy cheek.
Jimin seems hesitant as he looks here and there, and Eunhi's jaw drops as she hides behind the curtain when Jimin glances at her window.
Slowly breathing, Eunhi again peeps from behind the purple curtains as Hoseok waves at Jimin and rambles to the left, his feet digging into the dazzling snow.
And Jimin turns around to casually walk back inside, his hands stuffed inside his big-sized black hoodie.
Eunhi's feels puzzled as she recalls Hobi kissing Jimin's cheek.
"Are they together?" She ponders, slowly stepping towards her bed and hopping on. Curling into a ball, she covers herself as a mixed feeling of confusion and astonishment builds inside her head.
"But they seem cute together." She smiles to herself. "If Jungkook and Taehyung are together... Namjoon and Jin are together...so why not Jimin and Hoseok?"
And Hoseok seemed really helping and cheerful. Jimin was really close to him, as he told her how they've been together for about eight years, joining the same dance classes and the same school.
"If they're together, I wish they stay like this." She breathes out as the door to her room opens, revealing the blonde.
"Hey, are you sleeping?" He whispers as he walks near the bed.
Eunhi stirs and turns around, "no, I'm not.."
"Let's go have dinner then." He points at his tummy. "I'm really hungry."
"Okay." Eunhi giggles as she gets up and turns the lights off before wearing her bear-designed slippers and walking out, where Jimin waits for her to cook something, a small pout forming on his plump lips.
---------
"I'm planning to take Taehyung on a small trip on his birthday." Jungkook breathes out as they walk back from their college.
"I've always wanted to visit the mountains while it's snowing. It looks really beautiful." He excitedly turns to Eunhi, who had been listening to him for the past twenty minutes.
"Yes, that's really romantic." She smiles and the bunny boy beams as he jumps childishly. "Yeah! That's what I'm saying!"
While Taehyung and Jimin sprints to the two, Jungkook whispers in Eunhi's ear, "Don't let him know, it's a secret only between us." Eunhi nods before Jungkook flashes his signature smile and dashes towards the two boys.
"Jungkook, I need to talk to you." Jimin glares at the younger as he reaches them, a confused look on his face.
"Me?" He points at himself innocently.
"Yeah, you." He grabs Jungkook's wrist and drags him along with him, Taehyung about to protest but abruptly stops as Jimin sends him a death glare.
"Why does he look so angry?" Taehyung scratches his head in confusion as he notice Eunhi near the gate, and he waves before walking to her.
"Hey." He chirps. "Hey Taehyung, what's up?" Eunhi grins at the chocolate haired boy as he shrugs and beams, "I'm all good. And you?"
"Me too.." with a pause and glancing back in the direction where Jimin and Jungkook went, Eunhi puffs out a breath as she faces Taehyung.
"Taehyung, can I ask you something?"
"Yeah, why not."
"Um.." she hums before thinking if it would be awkward to ask so. But she looks in his eyes, "uh- are.. Jimin and Hobi together too?"
Taehyung furrows his brows in confusion as he presses his lips into a thin line, "why?"
"I'm sorry if I asked something wrong.. I just saw them yesterday and I was just thinking if-"
"No." Taehyung simply answers, "they're not together."
Eunhi looks at him in confusion. "B-but I thought.."
"Let me tell you something Eunhi." Taehyung sighs, turning to face the girl standing to his right.
"You know, Hoseok hyung is such a sweet person. He loves everyone." He starts, voice deepening as his words turn into a whisper, "but, in Jimin's case, he's kind of different."
"What do you mean?" Eunhi squints her eyes, processing his words.
"Hobi hyung likes Jimin." He blurts out. "He likes him a lot, since the beginning."
"And Jimin?"
Taehyung sighs, turning away and glaring at the bright yellow dandelions in the small garden.
"He does not. He says he doesn't need anyone. He's so used to be alone that now he's afraid to fall in love." He continues, "Hobi hyung on the other hand, wants to be with him. Stay by his side. But he's just afraid he'll ruin the eight years of friendship if he tells Jimin about his feelings."
"Oh.." that's all Eunhi could say, frowning at Taehyung's words.
"Jimin loves Hobi hyung. But as a friend, as a brother. He knows he's always with him and he's happy just the way he is." Taehyung rubs his nose, "and Hobi hyung is alone too. He also needs someone, and he truly wants Jimin to be the one. In this hope, I don't know how many girls he has rejected."
"Jimin had a girlfriend when he was in 10th grade. He loved her, a lot. They were so cute together. But she left him, in fact she left the whole world. Jimin thinks it was his fault. And he still blames himself to this day." Taehyung explains. "He may seem flirty, it's his nature. But he's not that extrovert and ingenious as he shows himself."
"It kind of hurts to see him always smiling and laughing. But deep inside, he's broken. And I don't know if there's anyone who can fix him. Hobi hyung tries to make him happy as much as possible, but he's a human too. Both of them need someone."
He sighs as he rubs his eyes, and Eunhi just gets lost, thinking about those happy faces they would show her, but in reality they're lonely and broken.
"Taehyung?" She whispers as the boy turns around and flashes a smile. "Y-yeah, I'm here."
"I-" she starts but sees Jimin and Jungkook coming their way, they both quickly change their frowns into a wide grin, facing the two other boys.
"What happened?" Taehyung snakes his arm around Jungkook's neck as he faces Jimin.
"Nothing. Just Busan boys' talk." Jimin shrugs as he walks away and Jungkook gives Taehyung a reassuring smile as he tilts his head towards Eunhi.
"Let's go guys.." he falters and Taehyung and Eunhi both nod before exchanging glances and smiling at him.
