Capítulo 19: Displaced
I don't know if I should be mad or what, but whatever they planned happened that day. So now, I've been living in an unknown territory.
I mean, it wasn't as bad as I thought it to be. Everyone was so gracious. They were all very helpful. Sometimes, I even think that they were told to look after me at all times. I never had to ask for something. Everything was provided for me.
My room was made to look as cozy as possible. Pastel yellow walls and a big bed, it would fit around five people to be honest. They gave me a corner to setup my gears. Jin Ju eonnie helped me set them up the other day. My pantry was already filled when I arrived. I think it would feed me for about a month without replenishing. As if it's not yet enough, Hobeom-nim told me to send him a list of things I still need. Or to call Sejin-nim or Hyeonji eonnie if there's emergency.
Just like what the sunbaes said, I've been bumping into the dongsaengs more often than I wanted to. It's not that I don't like them, I'm just not used to seeing boys around.
"Noona!" Kai, he's usually out in the corridors.
"Oh Kai! Out and about again?" He suddenly became shy as he smiled at me.
"Are you doing something? Anything I can help you with?" He really has too much energy.
"Hmmmm, let's see. I wanted to re-arrange the furniture in the living room."
"Sure!"
"Come on then." And just like that the rest of the group appeared on my door, all smiling like dogs waiting for treats. Now I know why the sunbaes said they can be a handful.
We were so busy with the task at hand that I didn't notice the time. Well, not until my doorbell rang.
"Oh fuck!" I totally missed my coaching session and the kids just laughed in unison, like it was the purpose of them helping me out today. "Yah! Yoongi sunbae will surely scold me. It just might be him at the door." That surely caught their attention and they all shrank like little kittens.
"Eunjung-ah, you there?" It was surely Yoongi sunbae. I would never mistake that deep timbre anywhere. He didn't even wait and just punched the code to my door.
And with that, I heard whispers from the kids. They were not supposed to know that the sunbaes know my code cause for sure they would ask why.
"Noona..." It was Soobin who attempted to ask but too late, Yoongi was already at the receiving area.
"Soobin?" Sunbae surely didn't expect them to be here. "Oh, Taehyun?" He even pointed a finger at him.
"Sunbae!" All of them said in chorus before bowing at the same time.
"You should learn from them Eunjung-ah. You don't bow to me these days." Yoongi said with a playful smirk on his lips. Why is he this playful? And is that a light blush on his cheeks? Don't tell me he... no he can't... he didn't. "But why are you kids here?"
"We uh..." Yeonjun started.
"We saw Noona outside." Kai continued.
"She said she needed help." Then Beomgyu.
"Yes, yes. With moving stuff." Taehyun followed, nodding his head like a bobble head toy. Oh my God, can they be cuter.
"Yes Sunbae. So we went and helped. We really can't leave a girl to do the muscle work, right?" Soobin even pointed to his triceps.
"Ah, good. Good. Do you still have anything to do here?" Yoongi asked.
Yeonjun shook his head as fast as he can. "No sunbae. All's done. We'll leave you Noona. Thank you for the desert!"
Yoongi's brows flew up at that. "Desert?" He asked turning to me as the kids went out.
"I, uh, to thank them ofcourse. For, for helping me." Why the fuck am I stuttering?!
******
Eunjung was never late for our coaching sessions but it has been 30 freaking minutes. I mean, I don't have a lot to teach her but we could've charged atleast. The charging this morning didn't quite fill me. Not with Namjoon being strict with the schedule.
Well, since I'm still sleepy why not try to sleep more? But, I'm also quite thirsty. I think I still have some wine here.
Why didn't she come? Was there anything more important than her time with me? By any chance, did she meet with Namjoon? Is he more important than me now? They sure are getting more chummy as the days go by. He even visited her outside our normal charging time. But why am I even asking these fucking questions?! I have lots to do than worry about her.
Oh, look at the time. It's almost our charging schedule. Why not pay her a visit then? Namjoon did it so why can't I?
Good thing no one's in the hall today. Not those kids. They're always lounging around here. Maybe they have schedules today. Well, time to check on my mate.
"Eunjung-ah, you there?" Why isn't she answering?! Is she out?! Well, I can surely crash here and wait for her instead of at the dorm where the kids can pester me. I can take a nap on her couch while waiting.
Why are there shuffling inside? I saw a lot of pairs of feet as I entered her pad and...
"Soobin?" Why the hell is this kid here?! Well if he is here then surely... "Oh Taehyun?!" And they all went ahead and bowed. Haha. Why do I feel like they're scared of me? Eunjung should definitely learn courtesy from these boys. To think of it she hasn't really curtsied to me for a while.
"You should learn from them Eunjung-ah. You don't bow to me these days. But why are you kids here?" So apparently Eunjung was doing some remodelling. To be honest, her pad looked too formal when she was moved here and I knew that one day she would definitely bring a hurricane and move the furniture. She decided it must be today. Why didn't she tell us instead of asking these boys to help? We have way more muscle than them.
The kids scurried away but not without revealing that Eunjung gave them desert.
"Desert?!" I never thought she was the sweets type. I took her for the salty type of person. You know like the chips type of girl.
"I, uh, to thank them ofcourse. For, for helping me." She's cute when she stutters like that.
"Let me crash here for a while." I said as I tapped the empty space beside me. She sat hurriedly. Why do I feel like she did something wrong? Oh yeah, she must be feeling guilty for missing our coaching session today. "Don't worry about it."
"Sunbae?"
"I know you missed the production coaching with me today. It's fine. You had to do something important. We can reschedule tomorrow if you like." She smiled back at me, relief flooding her face. And since I feel whoozy, I opted to lie down so I put my head on her lap. Hmmmm this feels much better. I think we should charge this way instead.
"S-sunbae... I..."
"Hmmm?"
"You, uh.."
"What?"
"Are you okay?" I know that wasn't the question she wanted to ask. She just has a hard time being direct to the point.
"Yes Eunjung. I did drink. Alone as well. I had the time anyway since you ditched coaching." I can feel her heart pounding with the way her energy flows to me. I knew this would happen.
"I... I'm sorry. It's just that I wanted to finish organizing my stuff and creating a comfortable space. And the guys came to help and kept me company and I lost track of time. I didn't..."
"Ssshhh..." she immediately stopped when I reached out to take her hand. "It's okay. I was just playin'."
"But... you said..." her voice was already shaking.
"I just said it's okay. I'm glad you had a good time with the kids. Now, let's take a rest and charge."
********
Sunbae took my hand and held it to his chest. For someone whose skin is as white as snow, he has hands as warm as a fire pit. I honestly don't know what to do. It was my fault he's quite drunk now but he's making my heart beat so fast. He feels so calm and at home beneath my hand. He looks so serene sleeping on my lap like this and to be honest, it also feels good. We're able to charge better like this it makes me think we'll end up in this position every time.
He has a light blush on his face from being intoxicated. It compliments his white skin. He even has a small smile on his lips. Is he happy that he's with me? Or he's just content because he's finally able to charge after a long day? I know we've just known each other for a few weeks but why does he make my heart gallop like this? And I know he's feeling it because I can feel even the slightest movements in his body. Gahd! How can I be so naive? I can't hide my fangirl heart from him. Well, thankfully he doesn't know he's my bias wrecker or it's the end of me.
I'm already having a hard time containing myself in front of them when I'm at BigHit. What more if he knows he's my actual idol just like Namjoon sunbae? I'm quite sure he'll use it to tease me. A lot. Just like how he teases me nowadays about my 'cute' snoring as he puts it. But hey, he thinks I'm cute?
"Eunjung-ah, are you thinking about me?" Oh God! Will my heart ever stop pounding?!
"N-no... I'm not!"
"I'm quite sure you are."
"How can you say so?"
"Your heart won't slow down."
