Yoongi's POV

I was left alone sitting in the dark kitchen with my phone still vibrating. When it stopped I unlocked it and decided to open my voicemail. I heard the robotic voice saying:

"You have three messages!"

I stared at my phone dumbfounded. Had something serious happened? Why hadn't he, Jungkook left a text message instead of a voicemail.

"Yoongi... you never check your voicemail do you?" Jungkook was asking me. "I swear you've never heard even one of the ones I used to sent you in the past." He laughed forcefully. "It's the morning. Early morning and I know you'll probably be having the hungover shift. I woke up two hours ago and waited patiently for the clock to point at 8 o'clock before I called you. I... was sure you wouldn't answer but... I... it's not as if I have something important to tell you. I... have nothing to be honest."

The first message ended there. He sounded tired and sleepy. Why had he called me?

The second message went somewhat along the lines of:

"You didn't pick it up again. Maybe you blocked my calls already. If that's the case then... I guess I can say whatever I want in here. I feel so lonely I'm all by myself. Jimin is peacefully sleeping in the bed and I can't get myself to wake him up for something so minor like my insomnia. I want to believe that if that had happened while we lived together I would have woken you up."

-Of course you would! You loved torturing me.
I thought as the message ended.

"Hey it's Jungkook again. *pause* I'm sorry!" This time his voice was shaking and the message was as really short. He didn't say anything else and it was as if I could see him ready to cry. I turned off my phone and headed towards my room.

On my way there I heard a voice coming out of Vicky's bedroom.

"Yoongi?" She asked.

I stopped outside her room and sneaked my head in.

"Yes?" I asked. "Everything alright?"

"How was the shift with Kibum?" Vicky asked me.

"Worse that you can imagine!" I admitted and she chuckled. "If you don't want something else Vix I'll go to sleep". I told her.

"Yes of course go ahead!" She smiled as she stretched her arms.

I went inside my room and lied in the bed. I fell asleep quickly and woke up 6 hours later, around 2pm, while Areum aka mrs Bangs, was preparing our lunch. I stumbled across the corridor and entered the kitchen. I sat on a chair next to Nari who also seemed to have just woken up and stared at Areum.

"Good morning". I muttered swallowing a yawn.

"That's the second time I hear that from you today!" Nari mumbled.

"Sorry!" I yawned.

"Why the heck did you two wake up so late?" Areum asked and Nari replied with a firm:

"Work!"

At that moment Bora walked inside carrying five plastic bags from the supermarket in her arms. I rushed, or at least tried to rush and help her but she signed negatively.

"You'll trip over your own feet, sit down!" She ordered me and she looked surprisingly energetic. Areum seemed to notice that as well.

"Did you two exchange souls for a day?" She asked as she fried some onions, referring to Bora and me.

I grinned and Bora rolled her eyes.

"You guys whine about me being grumpy all day everyday and when finally I feel slightly more energetic you're acting as if it's strange!" She said irritated.

"In all honestly it is strange!" Nari mumbled.

"What's strange?" Asked Vicky who had just walked inside the kitchen.

"Is Haneul still mad?" Asked Areum ignoring her question.

I looked at Nari confused but she shrugged her shoulders meaning that she had also just woken up. So I turned to Vicky and she breathed out tiredly.

"A couple fight!" Vicky explained.

"Did you answer your phone?" Nari asked me distracting me from what was going on.

"My what?"

"Your phone, did you answer?"

I thought it was weird of her to ask me about that. So I simply nodded negatively.

"Why not?"

"Never pick up the phone when your ex calls you!" I replied

"Did your ex call you?" Bora asked and now all four of them were looking at me.

"Yes!" I replied half heartedly.

"What did he want?" It was Areum's turn to ask.

"I don't know!" I lied and got up from the chair. "Tell me when it's ready to prepare the table!" I said and left the room in a hurry.

I headed to my room and turned on my phone. Nothing. No missed calls.

I breathed out relieved.

"I'm sorry for us being so nosy!"

I heard Vicky's voice behind the door.

I opened the door.

"It's okay. I'll get used to it!"
