Chapter 11

Taehyung's POV

I nervously sat at the coffee shop, hot chocolate in hand. I looked out at the busy people rushing past each other and tried my best to occupy my mind. "Eat this" I looked up and seen a smiling Jimin looking down at me as he placed a pasty in front of me "You should eat before you get sick, and try to relax it's just your brother"

I forced a smile and thanked him, he laughed and headed back over towards the counter to help someone. Sure it was just my brother and I was excited to see him, I just hope my dad didn't send his goons with him. Or made some plan to ambush me and take me back home at any costs. I took a bite of the pasty Jimin gave me and relaxed in my chair.

A few minutes later I finally seen the tall lanky handsome guy heading this way, I smiled as he looked at his phone and then up at the cafe. I was relieved when I seen no one else was with him, he crossed the street nearly getting hit. I shook my head and laughed, it was a typical Namjoon thing to do.

A second later he walked in, I smiled as his eyes scanned the cafe and found mine. His smile mirrored mine and then he headed over to me and embraced me into a big hug, I could see Jimin smiling over at us out the corner of me eye. "It's so good to see you" Namjoon said as he patted my back, he pulled back and looked over my face and then the rest of me. "You look good...different actually but good" I laughed and then motioned for him to sit.

He sat across from me and relaxed in his seat "You look good to Hyung, more handsome" I beamed, I didn't realize how much I actually missed him. The dimples on his face deepened at my words, he took off his coat and then Jimin appeared at our sides. "Oh um, this is Jimin one of my roommates. Jimin this is my brother Namjoon" they exchanged hellos and shook hands, I laughed a little seeing how odd this all my seem to my brother.

Jimin took his order and then disappeared giving us time to talk. "How have you been?" I asked, genuinely curious about how life has been back home. "It's been stressful because of you" he sighed but smiled slightly "Dad has been unbearable but that's nothing new, it's not so bad for me because I don't have to live with him. Mom on the other hand..." he trailed off and I sighed "I wish she would just leave him" I stated looking directly into my brothers eyes, he looked taken aback but nodded "I know...but dad isn't all that bad. Plus you know he'd never let her leave him, it would ruin our family image" I rolled my eyes at the ridiculous statement and he laughed.

Like I said Namjoon didn't go through the stuff I went through, especially when he went off to college. He got to have that normal life, he was my parents pride and joy. "Fuck his fake family image" I scoffed, he sighed and then Jimin brought him his drink.

He thanked him and then took a sip "I know you and Dad have this weird thing going on but he means well baby brother, he is worried about you." I shook my head not buying it "Is that why he sent his goons after me? They chased me down not long ago.

Surprisingly I haven't seen them lurking around here." His eyes became curious "What do you mean? Dad sent people?" My brother seemed to be blinded  "Yes, that shouldn't be surprising hyung. Dad..." I trailed off trying to find the right words.

Namjoon worked for the company and was more likely closer than ever to our dad now. But he kept so much from my brother...I wasn't sure what I should or shouldn't say. Namjoon would flip out if he ever knew that my Father laid his hands on not only me but our mother. "Dad what Tae? Did those guys hurt you?" I shook my head coming back to reality "No I outran them and then my roommates scooped me up." He sighed and leaned forward "What they must think of us"

I laughed "They're different hyung, they don't care about all that. Actually they don't even know about any of that stuff or who are family is. I'm pretty much a bum here" he looked at me with a weird expression "It's Okay Hyung, they take care of me and I do what I can to help them. It's nice...although I underestimated how much things cost out here. I ran out of money fast. I'll probably have to look for a job soon" his face seemed unreadable, but slightly disturbed by my words.
