Part 11 : Back to home

"𝗡𝗼 𝗻𝗼 𝗻𝗼 𝗻𝗼. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗲." He replied with a smirk.

"𝗔𝘀𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀", you replied.

"𝗢𝗸𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗲. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗸𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲?" He asked immediately.

"𝗦𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲-- 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁...𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧!! 𝗝𝗲𝗼𝗻 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗴𝗸𝗼𝗼𝗸, 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀!?!?" You yelled at him and he just laughed at you.

"𝗖'𝗺𝗼𝗻, 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱. 𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻'𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲", he showed you his phone and opened the game before telling you about the basics. You were listening to him quite interestingly.

"𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗿𝘆?" He asked and you happily nodded. After listening to him, you realised that games are not that bad unless it becomes your addiction. He handed you his phone and you started playing like an amateur as you are.

"𝗬/𝗻, 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝗳𝘁. 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝗺. 𝗡𝗼! 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁. 𝗬𝗮𝗵𝗵𝗵!!" He travelled his right hand over your shoulder to your right hand to guide it and his other hand guided your left hand. So basically you were playing in his embrace, without even realising.

"𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝗼 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱?" You whined after getting killed in the game and looked at him just to realise the intimidation between you too. That wierd feeling in your stomach started to arise. Oh! It's the butterflies. He was still looking at his phone so you were in the same position but then he shot his head up and realised the situation. You shifted a little far from him and looked everywhere but him.

"𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁? 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗹𝗶𝗿𝘁", you murmured. He tilted his head towards you like you offended him badly.

"𝗬𝗔𝗛𝗛! 𝗜 𝗪𝗔𝗦 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗙𝗟𝗜𝗥𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗢𝗞𝗔𝗬?" He yelled but you started looking into your phone and ignored him like he is not even there. He scoffed and started playing games again.

You both got of the truck at the bus stop near your house. Jungkook walked you home from there and left for his home too.

You stood in front of your door while collecting yourself up to get ready for question bombarding. Finally you twisted the door knob and entered your house just to be greeted by silence.

"𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝘂𝗻𝘁?" You asked to yourself as you knew that Hyemin must be at school right now and your uncle must be at office. But your aunt is supposed to be there.

You changed your slippers and kept your bag on couch before running towards her room. And there she was! Peacefully lying on bed and scrolling through her phone.

"𝗔-𝗮𝘂𝗻𝘁..", your voice was barely audible but she heard it. She glared at you and continued her scrolling. You went near her.

"𝗔𝘂𝗻𝘁, 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝘀-", you were interrupted by her words.

"𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝘀𝗸", she said coldly, making you confused since it's not like her. You didn't dare to say anything and turned around before leaving the room.

"𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗿? 𝗠𝗮𝘆𝗯𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳. 𝗛𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗔𝗻𝘆𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀, 𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗮𝘀 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗺", you murmured to yourself while walking to you room and you were quite relieved after this. But little did you know that this was the calmness before a storm.

After reaching home, maids told me that dad is not home. Again, he was on business trip. His god damn business! He don't even care about his son who was lost for a whole night. But I'm used to it. Anyways, this is happening since my mom's dead when I was just 12. I was raised by caretakers while dad was busy making money for I don't know whom. I don't even want that money more than him.

I took shower and lied down on my comfortable bed.

"𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆! 𝗜 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗱", I heaved out a sigh of satisfaction. But then something popped in my mind. I got up and went to my bag which I took on the trip. I was searching for a locket which had a family picture in it. My mom's locket. But where is it? Ig, I kept it in that jacket.

"𝗦𝗵𝗶𝘁! 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗷𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗬/𝗻. 𝗔𝗶𝘀𝗵!!!" I lied down on my bed while groaning in frustration. I don't want to drag my feets out of this house anytime soon. So I just decided to see her at evening. She must be tired too. And it's not like she will steal my Locket. It's in safe hands. Pushing all the thoughts away, I drifted to sleep.

I was studying in my room when Aunt suddenly opened the door and said, "𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗿𝘀". With this, she left. Looking at her expression, I can tell that she was not in a good mood but what happened now? I didn't even do anything. I gulped the lump in my throat b'coz of fearful thoughts and went downstairs.

In the living room, I saw uncle an aunt sitting on the couch beside each other without saying anything. This situation is so confusing. Then Uncle's sight fell on me.

"𝗬/𝗻, 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝘁", he signalled towards the chair opposite to him. In between, there was table and lot of papers on it. I obediently sat opposite to him.

"𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗶𝘁!" Aunt said, tapping at the papers on the table.
