13.

...Min-Jeong's Point of View...

Few days later, I managed to score a job somewhere in the city as a marketing manager for a food company and since I didn't have anyone to take of my girls while I am at work, I started sending them to playschool somewhere nearby the office.

Since my work can be done mostly online, I was rarely in office. I'd always try to hang out somewhere close to their playschool for some peace of mind. I was about to leave Min-Ji and Mi-Suk at their playschool when I bumped into Yoongi.

"Jeez, why do I bump into you when I least expect it", I joked. Yoongi was walking alone, and he flashed the brightest gummy smile when he saw me.

"What are you doing here?", I asked.

"Just wanted to take advantage of this nice weather. Is this Mi-Suk and Min-Ji's new school?", He asked when he saw the sign.

I nodded, "I can assume only you know about this, right?"

"You do know that the first time we saw you, Jungkook and Hobi were there right?"

I laughed, "Yeah... did they ever ask you about the girls?"

"I think they got it figured out but ya know both of them, you don't ask, they won't tell", Yoongi calmly responded.

"Hey, I just have an idea. Why don't you come and hang out with us tonight?" I blinked few times before I could answer.

"He won't be there. He told us already that he has other plans tonight." It took him very little effort to convince me because he knew I missed hanging out with them.

My heart dropped a little when I heard that Jin wasn't going to be there, and I was somewhat angry at myself for feeling that way.

He has a girlfriend, remember?

Later that night, I made my way to their dorm very oh-so discreetly and managed to avoid any press. When I arrived, all of them except for Jin was there, including Yeri and Ji-woo (Namjoon's girlfriend).

We talked, a lot! I was so happy to hang out with all of them again even though it partly felt weird that Jin wasn't there.

"Have you been seeing anyone?", Namjoon asked.

I shook my head, "Who has the time! I was quite occupied wit-", I stopped myself and Yoongi just looked at me like a deer in headlights.

"With what? Tell us!", Jimin excitedly asked.

"Just work stuff. You know how it is, you get real busy when work starts piling up", I lied.

"Do you want to stay over for the night? Yeri and Ji-woo are planning to sleepover. Since Jin is not coming back tonight, you can just sleep in his room", Taehyung said.

I remembered Min-Ji and Mi-Suk at home and made a quick call to my mother since I was already half drunk from all the drinks that Jimin served. My mother assured me that it was okay to stay over and to make sure that I'll come back before noon.

"Come on! We'll sleep with you in that room unless if you prefer to sleep on the couch...", Yeri joked.

"Fine but are you sure he's not coming back?" I asked again, just to be sure.

"YES!" All of them responded, in unison.

We talked and talked and talked 'til it was really late at night. Since all of them stayed over, I had no choice but to sleep in Jin's room but Yeri and Ji-woo agreed to bunk with me.

I already had too much to drink, so it didn't take me long to fall into deep sleep as long as I got into bed.

I accidentally woke up at 5AM because that's the usual time Mi-Suk would wake me up for toilet.

"Sukie?", I said, and then I remembered that I wasn't at my parents' place.

I looked at the empty space on my left and right and that was when I realized that both of the girls left me in the room all alone.

The moment I realized I was alone in his room, I felt anxious. I wanted to throw up. I had no idea what made me agree to sleep here even though he was not around.

I used to sleep in this room three years ago, we used to share this bed together. I started sobbing when I realized there was someone in the room, sitting on the couch opposite my bed.

"Did you have nightmare?"
