Cherry Blossoms After Winter (TaeKook) - EP⁷ - I don't want him as my brother

It was morning of a new day, and Jihyun was in Taehyung's room, sitting beside him on his bed while sipping on her coffee whereas Taehyung was busy with his phone,

Kim Jihyun (O)

It's the weekend, but Jungkook said he was going out to study *says, taking a sip on her coffee*

Kim Taehyung (A)

*looks up from his phone* Has he gone to the library again?

Kim Jihyun (O)

Mmh, he left early this morning

Kim Taehyung (A)

Oh *looks down*

Kim Jihyun (O)

How's he doing at school? *asks, looking at him*

Kim Taehyung (A)

We students are all the same *says with a slight pout, getting back into his phone*

Kim Jihyun (O)

Does he get along with the other kids?

Kim Jihyun (O)

Ah... *looks forward, thinking of something* come to think of it, he has never brought a friend home

Kim Taehyung (A)

Seniors don't have time for friends

Kim Jihyun (O)

Wae? Aren't you guys humans? *asks looking at him with a raised eyebrow*

Kim Jihyun (O)

You should hang out with friends, and date as well as study *says, nodding to herself*

Kim Taehyung (A)

Eomma *looks at her* don't go around talking like that

Kim Taehyung (A)

I hate it when you pretend to be cool *says with a done face*

Kim Jihyun (O)

Yah! *slaps on his back playfully*

Kim Jihyun (O)

It's not pretense, I'm a caring person *sips on her coffee*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

"Happy birthday, many happy returns of the..." ✍🏻

Currently, Jungkook was at "Bloom" flower shop for his part-time job, and he was writing a birthday card, sitting on a chair there whereas right in front of him was sitting Hoseok, preparing the bouquet they had to tuck the card on,

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Here you go, hyung *gives the card to him*

Jung Hoseok (O)

*takes it, putting on the bouquet properly* It's much better if the giver writes it themselves

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*looks at him with a small smile*

Jung Hoseok (O)

Like, it's more meaningful if it has a few lines straight from the heart, you know? *says looking at him with slightly pouty lips*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*giggles a little* Ne, but they were probably nervous

Jung Hoseok (O)

*shrugs his shoulders slightly* Even if you're nervous, it's cute if you write it from the heart, but if not then...

Jung Hoseok (O)

A word-perfect confession of love lacks sincerity *says as a matter of fact*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*nods slightly with a small smile* Mmh

It was late in the evening, and Jungkook was walking towards his house when he saw particular someone standing there, right beside the main door, supporting himself to the wall there, and the pace of his walk decreased itself as he called out that person's name loud,

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Taehyung-ah

Kim Taehyung (A)

*looks up from his phone as put it back into his jogger's pocket*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*walks up to him with a small yet cute smile playing on his lips*

Kim Taehyung (A)

You are home late *says, walking a bit closer to him*

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Oh... *looks away* Ne

Jeon Jungkook (A)

You weren't waiting for me, were you? *asks, looking at him with a cute smiling face*

Kim Taehyung (A)

Uh...just getting some fresh air

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*blinks as lips took an 'o' shape* (He wasn't...😗)

Kim Taehyung (A)

Did you get a lot done at the library?

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Uh, ne... *looking everywhere but him*

Well he hasn't told them about his part-time job,

Kim Taehyung (A)

Jungkook

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Hm? *looks up at him*

Kim Taehyung (A)

I hope I don't make you uncomfortable

Jeon Jungkook (A)

*just looking at him as quite didn't understand what he meant by that*

Kim Taehyung (A)

Let's go in

Jeon Jungkook (A)

Ah, ne *says, nodding his head in yes as follows him inside the house*

It was late at the night when Jungkook entered his room, and walked up to his study table,

He opened a drawer there, and took out a diary like book from it then took his chair, sitting himself there as he put the diary on the table, and opened it,

A picture was placed there in the middle of it, and Jungkook took it in his hand, it was picture of Taehyung, and his, when they were kids,

Jungkook smiled softly as he caressed over the picture with his hand when the crying of his own played in his head, mixing with the crying of another child, and the midst of it, a mother trying to explain her little son how he should accept this particular boy as his brother as he is going to live with them from now on,
