Jungkook's POV
" I had a dream. No!. . More like a nightmare" Halla said while walking beside me
" What was it about??" I asked scooting a little closer to her
" I- I don't really wanna talk about it" She said looking down
" But I thought you wanted to talk" I said
" Maybe tomorrow, I just don't want to talk about it right now. Let's talk about something else" She suggested
" Talk about what?" I asked looking at her
" Like, how did you end up being the milk man?" She said looking back at me
" What?" I asked
" You know, delivering bottles of milk and stuff" She made some funny actions making me giggle
" Aahh, well. . . Let's just talk about that tomorrow too" I giggled when I saw her reaction
" What?! Tell me now!" She whined like a little girl
" I'll tell everything tomorrow" I said then I saw her pout
" So, you and Jimin hyung are friends. Mind telling how that happened" I said
" I am also friends with Hoseok, I trust them both. I would tell my deepest and darkest secrets to them. Jimin will always protect me but I can handle them both, even though they're both stronger obviously" She said smiling
" Don't you have any girl friends?" I asked
" I do, I think. But they only want to be close to me because of my money and because they need something" She smiled bitterly
" Then don't consider them as your friends. Just continue on trusting Jimin and Hoseok hyung" I smiled at her
" Yeah, I'll just stick to that" She said then we walked side by side silently until we reached our school
-S C H O O L-
" Halla!! What are you doing here??" Jimin hyung ran to us while we are standing by Halla's locker
" I don't want to stay in my house" She answered Jimin hyung
" Oh Jungkook, you're here" Jimin turned to me
" Hi" I smiled at him and he smiled back
" Why are you two together??" He asked
" I saw her so I walked with her" I said
" More details please" He said
" Don't be so nosy Jimin, I'll just tell you everything when I feel like it okay?" Halla said opening her locker
" I'll go now, see you guys later" I said
" Bye" Halla waved her hand so I did the same before walking to my locker

- Saturday -
I woke up early to prepare breakfast for my mom and I, she is still locked up in her room so after I'm done cooking I walked towards her room and knocked a couple of times
" Mom, let's eat" I said in between knocks
" I'm not hungry!" I heard her from the other side of the door
" I know you are, let's eat together. Just this once" I tried once more then I saw her door slowly opening so I stepped back a little
" Good morning - mom" I greeted almost whispering the last word
" Uh Good morning" She said without emotions, she went out of her room and I quickly move closer to her when I saw her almost fall down
" You have gotten skinnier" I said holding her shoulders until we got downstairs
" You've grown so much" She said before sitting down in front of her plate
" Thank you" I whispered
" Let's eat quickly, shall we" She said before she started eating
" Mom, I'm going out for a couple of hours later" I said standing up before walking to the fridge
" Why?" She asked shortly
" I'm going to finish a report with my partner" I said taking her pills from the fridge and after that, I walked towards her
" Take as much time as you need, I will be fine" She said but I can feel that she just doesn't want me here
" Here, take your pills" I said giving her medicines to her
" I don't need it, I'll be fine without it" She pushed my hand away slightly
" Mom please, it will help you" I said
" I said no!! I don't want it!!!" She shouted standing up
" Mom please, I'm begging you" I said then she took the medicines from my hand and drank it
" There! Are you happy now?!" She said pushing me away from her
" Thank you" I muttered
" Just- Just go away. . Leave already" She said before going upstairs to lock herself again
I walked to my room to take a bath, after a few minutes in the shower, I walked out of my room wearing my usual clothing with the laptop and the phone in my hand
I went to my mom's room first to inform her that I'm leaving and that I won't be back in a few hours but I guess she doesn't care. I'm used to it
I walked out of the house then I went to the milk shop first to buy a couple bottles of milk
" Oh Jungkook! You don't have work today" Mrs. Kim said when she saw me entered her shop
" I know, I'm here to buy some bottles of milk" I smiled to her before walking to the refrigerators where they place various kinds of milk
" Strawberry? Banana? Chocolate? Plain Milk?" I can't choose, they are all delicious
" Take one of each kind dear, it's on me" Mrs. Kim said from the counter
" But -"
" No more buts, it's okay. You've done more than enough to help me Jungkook" She said smiling
" Okay, but let me pay atleast two of these bottles" I said walking to the counter with the bottles of milk in my hand
" Sure, if that is what you want" She smiled sweetly at me
I put the bottles down on the counter and after a couple of minutes I paid for it
" Here, it will help you carry that" She said giving me a paper bag
" Thank you" I smiled at her then I put the bottles inside the paper bag one by one
After placing the bottles inside the paper bag, I waved goodbye to Mrs. Kim before walking out of her shop
I walked for at least 10 minutes before I reached Halla's house, I know I'm a little bit early because we agreed to meet at 8:00 but it's only 7:00, Halla's going to be so mad at me
" Here we go" I said before knocking a couple of times, then the door opened revealing a messy haired Halla in her adorable pajamas
" Ju- Jungkook!!!" She shouted eyes widening
" Good morning" I hesitantly said
" What are you doing here?!! Is it 8 already?!" She panicked arranging her hair and her clothes
" No, I'm early" I smiled at her then she glared at me
" Then why are you here?!! It's 7 o'clock!" She looked so angry
" I'm sorry" I said looking down
" Fine, just - just come in and don't touch anything!! I'll be right back" She opened the door then she quickly went upstairs
" Okay" I said even though she's already upstairs
I looked around the living room while waiting for Halla to finish her business, I saw some of her old photos like when she was still young and some photos of her mom, after a few minutes Halla came downstairs with her hair still kinda wet
" You still have time to dry your hair, there's no need to rush" I smiled at her then she returned it with a glare
" Did you touch anything?? Why are you standing there?? What's in the paper bag??" She asked nonstop
" I didn't touch anything. I was looking around that's why I'm standing here. Milk, various kinds of milk is in the paper bag" I answered every single question she asked
" Let's finish the report" She said walking to the couch at the living room so I walked towards her and I said beside her
" Please move 12 inches away from me" Halla said clamly
" Oh, sorry" I muttered before moving away
" Let's start" She said before opening the laptop
" Okay" I said, and after a few minutes she still couldn't find the report file that's why I smiled
" Yah! Where did you put the report?!" She asked
" Let me" I grabbed the laptop from her hands then I started looking for it
" You should've done that earlier" She scoffed
After a few moments, I was doing the report on the carpet alone because Halla lay down on the couch occupying the whole couch. I saw her tossed and turned a few times, until she finally spoke
" Let's do the report in my room" She said standing up
" Why? It's fine here" I said
" I'm not comfortable, I don't want to stay here. Let's go to my room" She said crossing her arms before going upstairs, so I grabbed the laptop and a few pieces of paper on the floor before following her upstairs
" Before you enter, please don't touch my things and please don't judge my room" She said before opening the door of her room
" Your room is really nice" I said. The room was filled with pastel colors, the walls are painted pastel blue, the bed was covered with white pearl colored sheets and her cabinet was white and also there is a bookshelf with quite a few books in it
" Sit down" She pointed down to the floor while she was laying down on the bed with her head on the lower part
" Can you please close the door??" She asked so I smiled at her before standing up to close the door
" Thank you" She said
" So why did you wanted to do the report here??" I asked
" I'm not comfortable if I'm outside my room" She said
" Why??" I asked
" It's a very long story" She said doing some funny motions with her arms
" I'm willing to listen" I said the I started typing some more informations about our report
" Let's do that then, you'll work while I share something. But, you'll share something too" She said
" Okay" I looked at her before I continue typing
" You see, when I was young my mom left me so I was stuck with my horrible father, he would hurt me physically and emotionally almost everyday so maybe that's why my attitude is like this. My mother said she would come back to us, but she didn't.
My father would treat me like his slave then he found his slut and left me here when I was 14. Jimin's mother was close to my mom that's why Jimin and I bacame friends, Jimin's mother would treat me like her own daughter.
Don't tell anyone about this conversation because I will kill you and also Jimin will get mad because I promised that I will not tell anyone about this unless it's Hoseok" She said
" Where did your mom go??" I asked looking at her
" She died Jungkook. I should've never let her leave" She said with full disappointment in her voice
" I'm sorry" I said
" It's okay" She smiled bitterly
" Now, tell me about yours" She said with her hands supporting her chin
" What about me??" I asked
" First things first, why are you here so early??" She asked
" I woke up early, that's why" I said trying to change the topic
" Liar, tell me" She said making me sigh
" My mom doesn't want me to be with her" I said looking at the screen of the laptop and I can feel Halla's stare
" Why?" She asked softly
" She blames me because my father left us when I was 6 years old to be with his other family. She locked herself in her room ever since, but I tried my best to help her heal.
She would always fake a smile towards me and she would always shout at me everytime I did something that she doesn't like. In short, ever since my father left she never cared for me. But my father told me to be good and he told me to take care of my mom so I obeyed him, I kept his words in my mind
That's why I work at the milk shop, to help buy her medicines and to help her feel loved again. There I met Taehyung, I think of him as my own brother since I don't have any. How about you?? Do you have any siblings??" I narrated my whole life
" I do have an older brother but my father took him with him, when he left. He is 2 years older than me, his name is Jihoon; Lee Jihoon" She smiled
" Do you miss him??" I asked
" Who??" She asked me
" Your brother, do you miss him??" I asked again
" Yes, my father said we couldn't talk to each other" She said
" How about you?? Do you miss your father??" She asked
" It's done!! Our report is done!!" I purposely avoided her question
" Jungkook, you can tell me. I gave you my trust and you can give me yours" She walked closer to me
" Yes. I miss him a lot"
