It's a new day. In past days whatever happened, the truth unfolding. I am glad that it came in front.. I won't give any reaction for these meaningless acts, I just want this silly chapter to be closed. God will handle those chaos ... I'll mind my own business and hope she does hers..

Entering the University I met Jimin on my way ...
"Hey Good Morning Y/N" Jimin said while giving his angelic smile ...
"Good Morning Jimin" (smiling)
and we went together to our class ... while talking about random things ...

As usual classes went on, and everything was going smoothly..

We - Taehyung, Jimin, Emily and I were meeting more frequently. We would have our meal together. Roam around and many more what friends ...would do...

One thing I really felt good and appreciate but shocking at the same time... that unlike earlier days, Nana is minding her own business. She no longer roams around Taehyung or me or side eye me or playing silly games to hurt me... Something has made her change behaviour... Whatever it be .. I just wanna close this chapter ..

Bidding bye to our busy teammates, Taehyung and Emily ...who would be staying at the library for preparing the presentation. We Jimin and I marched outside the University... and then parted our ways ..

Taking the fresh evening breaths in. I looked above the sky was starting to be painted with wisps of lavender, daisy and rose blush gently, as the sun was setting and birds returning to their home....
Something is really nice about today. I feel kinda free, no rage, no frustration ..nothing ..only peace ... Taking in the air .. and humming the song I made my way to the shop...

....

....At the shop.....

Since Grandma told you all that they'll close the shop earlier..

"Y/N will you come to my house now ?" Hana asked you in anticipating a positive response

"Sure Eonni... I would love to!" you said and listening to the response she was delighted...

Finishing the work quickly, and closing the shop you get into the car and drive together to her house ...

Her flat was on the 7th floor ... Stepping inside the living room a sweet smell of jasmine filled the room. With the sleek lines and minimalist design converge to create a space that is both stylish and inviting.

The walls, painted in a soft shade of dove cream white colour, serving as a neutral background for the room's contemporary furnishings.

At the centre laid the plush, light-gray sofa, and a small centre table at the centre. Right front of the sofa was the TV, clean and highly modern profile offering a perfect balance of comfort and sophistication.

In one corner, a floor-to-ceiling window bathes the room in natural light, offering the beautiful views of the breathtaking sky. Sheer white curtains billow gently in the breeze, adding a sense of airiness to the space.

She freshened up and went to the kitchen and I followed her ...

"Do you live in this house alone??" with curiosity you asked

"Umm most of the time yeah... But trust me ... You'll enjoy your own company..." she said while cheerfully chuckling and preparing some snacks ...

I accompanied her but I feel like deep down she feels lonely but doesn't want to let me know ...

"Y/N with whom do you live??" she asked you forwarding the conversation

"Umm.. I live with my mother!"

"Ohh... father must be working abroad ..right?"

"Umm I wished ..." You softly said "He is not here anymore"

"Umm .. I am really Sorry for..."

"Eonni... you don't have to..."
you tried to shift the gloomy air ... "Eonni let's go ..."With that you took the filled bowls with snacks to the living room ...

...After a moment of silence ...

"This was not my choice .." Hana said softly while looking down

"Huh??"

"One day a huge heated argument built up, at my home with my parents, about to marry the person I love. They were against this marriage.. At that heat of the moment, fueling with anger and frustration I said words which till now I regretted and then I left the house ...

But Trust me Y/N ... Later as pictures kept unfolding, I felt really guilty about my actions. The Hana in that room was not the Hana I knew, she was literally a raged impulsive unknown Hana .. who was blind folded ..by the false promises ...." she said while fidgeting her fingers...

"So where is he now ..." And with I shifter myself closer to her

"He left!!!" Hana said.. I couldn't take the answer ...He left ??? What the heck ... He left the person who went against her family...

Painfully she said, "He left because he just wanted the fame which my family holds, the money, the position. When he got to know about this leaving my family, he left me ..."

"As*hole!!!! Such a ba*tard .. I feel like killing him.. I wish that he gets his karma soon .." you calmed my raged self ... and asked softly
"Why didn't you go back .. after all they are your family .. Parents can never be angry with their children for a long time ..."

"I wished your words were true ..... For I believed these words ... I did went back, to apologise to them, ask for their forgiveness, to accept me but when I was going, on my way I saw one of my parent's friend. I tried to not to reveal myself in front of them and maintained the distance... But I my steps halted when I heard him telling another one that Mr. Kim, my father, says only about his son ...and never talks about his daughter... It seems they have only one inherited son.."
saying that her eyes glistened ... And a pool of tears blurred her vision ...

"They don't recognize me as their daughter... Y/N I know it was my mistake and I deserve this type of behaviour... But Trust me Y/N it hurts a lot ..."

You hugged her and patted her back ...

"Shhhh shhh ... Its okay ... Circumstances have been difficult but There's God, he has seen everything ... and knows about it all. For all the happenings there's reason ...time has the power to heal ... Eonni...
One day, Everything will be fine.. Soon you'll have all the moments you wished for.. We are here Eonni. Don't cry" you tried to comfort her

...After a few minutes...

"But one thing is a bliss that my brother has not broken the bond with me, he visits me mostly often ..." Hana said while wiping the tears..
Adding she said "I am Sorry ...I wanted it to be a happy meet up but ended up a sad session" while giving a soft apologetic smile

"Eonni what are you saying. Don't say this Eonni..... Everything will be alright Don't worry... Till then you have a younger brother and now you have one more younger sister ..me. You can share anything with me, scold me, anything you would like to .."

Hearing that she tightly hugged you ...

.....

I was going to take the empty dishes ..but Eonni denied and she went herself to keep ...

My eyes glancing around the room .. and it falls on the photo ... of a small girl and boy ...during their teens .. kept beside the TV's side table. Some thoughts lingered around your mind ..
His eyes look familiar... wandering you asked

"Who is this .. Eonni ????", you said while pointing at the photo.

"Ohh .. he is my brother .. it was taken when our family went for a vacation.. when we were in teens" Hana said while coming back from the kitchen to the hall room

"He seems like a sweet person ..."

"Yeah he definitely is .. though we are staying apart he understands me, supports me and he has always been there for me like a mature boy ... Though he is younger."

"I see .. what is your brother's name.."

"Ohh you haven't met with my brother... He will be here soon ..., you can meet him ..
Umm His name is ..." Hana was talking when your eyes went on the clock ..

"Eonni I must leave its almost 8 pm now ... I must go home now...."

"Sure. Could you wait for a few more minutes, he will be here soon ... he'll drop you ..."

"No no ...its okay Eonni. There's no need I can go by myself..."

"Okay as you say dear ..."

"Bye Eonni .. I had a lovely time with you ..."

"Me too... Y/N. I'll introduce you with my brother someday ... You'll enjoy his company..."

"Sure Eonni ... Bye..."
After saying that she walked towards the lift ...

...After a few seconds ...

Door bell rang ..

Pov ???

"Wohaa such a great welcome .. already door opened with snacks on the table. As if waiting for me!
Were you missing me nuna .."
While making himself comfortable on the couch and eating the chips...

"Aissh this boy... At least wash your hands before eating..." while smacking his arm

"Ouch ... Nuna I am hungry ..." acting like a baby

"Go first and wash your hands ...
Then you can calm your hunger"

Slowly rising from his seat, he made his way to the kitchen basin. As he washed his hands and glancing around, he couldn't help but wonder and ask "Did someone come?"

"Yeah a girl, with whom I work in the shop ..." nuna said happily while wiping the kitchen slab

"Ohh... Who is that ?? You never brought anyone at the house!", I questioned

"Ohhh.. She is y/n. She is like the delicate petals of the flowers, soft hearted yet mature and strong. She is really very sweet...
I am glad that I met her, during these months spending time with her,
In her, I discovered not just a friend, but a little sister." Nuna said cheerfully

"Y/n!", he repeated slowly and a smile crept on his face ...
