Turning Tables (Jikook)

Chapter 9: Confession part.1: A little too much

"Really? You freaked out?!" Tae asked curiously. What's so interesting about that?

"Of course! That only made my belief that I am really late even more convincing." I can't help but notice the sudden gleam in Tae's eyes.

"What's so interesting about it, hyung? Is there something I don't know?" I asked. Tae swallowed hard. There is something here.

"Uhmm... Uh... " Tae was out of words. I knew I caught him by then. But suddenly, we heard Jin shouting from the kitchen.

"TAEHYUNG!!! CAN YOU PLEASE COME HERE?! I NEED SOME HELP!" Jin's high-pitched voice resounded in the whole building.

"Yes, hyung! Coming!" Tae shouted in response. He hurriedly stood up and ran to the kitchen. He escaped...

I was alone for some moments in the living room. Random thoughts came rushing to my mind. Jimin. Jimin has become really clingy to me lately. It's just weird. He gives me hugs every time he feels like giving me one. He takes a video of me anytime he wants to. He takes photos of me even if I don't want him to. He's being too close to me. It's just a little too much for my liking.

I continued discussing Jimin's clinginess to me with myself when I heard the front door opening. Jimin.

"Good everyone!!!" Jimin shouted as he entered the house. Of course, I forgot. He goes jogging every morning. That can be seen by his sweaty body and hair. He was also panting a bit when he entered the living room. He then cast his eyes on me.

"Good morning, Kookie!!!" He said with a big smile.

"Good morning, Jimin." I said, trying to sound as energetic as possible, but to no avail.

Luckily, Jimin did not do or say a thing. He headed to the kitchen and handed the bag he was carrying to Jin and whispered something to him before turning and smiling at me. He then went straight to our shared room. Thank god he didn't bug me.

After a few minutes of silence in the house, Jimin went out from the room again, in new clothes. He showered, well he should, after all the sweat he expelled in his jogging session. He went straight to my direction and sat beside me. I already knew what was going to happen next.

"Hi Kookie! Did you miss me?" Jimin asked while trying to hug me. Well, I just let him hug me for now.

"No, I didn't. But I freaked out when I didn't see you beside me when I woke up." I noticed his face suddenly brighten up. "Because I thought all of you left me, and you went to the rehearsals without me. I really freaked out." But his bright expression gradually disappeared as I said the other part of my narration. What's with this guy?

"Ok, time to eat!" Jin said from the kitchen, making all of us rush to the dining room to eat breakfast. The food was the usual breakfast that Jin prepared for us, but we never got tired of the taste. Jin's cooking is really good. We sat in the usual seating arrangement. Then, Jin came with another bowl in his hands. It contained my favorite dish.

"Thanks, Jin-hyung!" Jimin said. I felt sad, because I thought I am going to eat that food again after a long time.

Then, suddenly, my bowl was snatched. I forgot the usual routine of Jimin – he takes my bowl almost every meal and fills it with food. What even shocked me is when the food he put is the food that Jin carried. Then, I remembered what Jimin gave Jin a few moments ago. So this is it! He bought me my favorite food!

"Eat Kookie! I bought that especially for you!" Jimin said to me when he gave my bowl back. I can't help but smile, seeing my bowl filled with delicious food. I ate the food like there's no tomorrow. When I finished my food, I was a bit unhappy because I thought that wasn't enough. Then Jimin filled my bowl again with the same food.
