Roommate

14: The Truth

A/N: This chapter is in Jimin's point of view, before he met Sohye as a teenager.

____________________________________

I still remember very vividly, the first time I met her.

"Jimin, why dont you go play outside? Your father has to attend to some guests." Minri, the maid was looking at me pitifully. I was a child, but I knew that the adults always gave me a look of pity. In their eyes, I was a lonely child.

And I was.

I walked sullenly into the mansion courtyard, my eyes scanning the area. It was the same as always - the beautifully trimmed rose bushes, garden ornaments and the big water fountain. I wasn't allowed to leave the mansion, so I didn't have a single friend.

But that day was different. I found myself gazing upon a petite figure behind the fence. It was a girl dressed in white, like a pure angel that fell from the sky.

I haven't met another child for a very long time. The guests that always stop by at home were father's friends - "business partners" I heard Minri mention.

But I gathered up all my courage to take a closer look. To my surprise, she locked eyes with me. I was startled a little , I thought I was well hidden, but apparently not.

"Annyeonghaseyo." the little angel smiled at me.

Her smile looked so pretty. I found myself flushing, an unusual shyness overcoming me. It's like I have fluttering butterflies in my stomach. Am I sick?

"Annyeong..." I managed to say in a soft voice.

She stuck her hand in one of the holes in the fence. I tilted my head, wondering what she is doing.

"I want to shake your hand?" she says as her expression also turns into confusion.

"What? What's that?" I raised my eyebrows.

The girl gestures me to come closer to her, which I did. She suddenly grabbed my hand, and I felt my heart pounding.

"This is how you shake hands" she held my hand tightly and shook it, up and down.

"What is this for?" her eyes widened at my question.

"You're odd, have you ever shook hands before?" she giggles.

I shook my head. "I dont have any friends to shake hands with."

I'm guessing I must've looked pretty sad that moment, because she smiled widely at me, still not letting go of my hand.

"I'll be your friend." she laughs.

My eyes lit up. "Really?"

She nodded, giving me the sweetest smile I've seen. By now, my heart was beating so fast I thought I might be sick. I have to inform Minri later.

"What's your name?" I asked her.

"Kim S-

She opened her mouth to answer, but before I could find out her name, she was cut off by another voice far back.

"Mianhae, I have to go now. Nice to meet you!" she finally lets go of my hand, and instantly I felt disappointed.

She waves, running off into the distance. I watched as her white dress flowed in the air, the image of her smile stuck in my mind. She was my first friend.

TEN YEARS LATER

"SCRREEECHHH" the sound of car tires alarmed me. When I turned to look, I saw a vehicle driving straight towards a girl. She was standing rooted to the ground, unable to move.

No!

It was like an instinct. I sprinted towards the girl, pulling her back with all my strength before there was an impact. Her whole body weight falls on me, and I catch her just in time.

"Are you alrig-

Wait. No way...

The girl's eyes were half closed, she locked eyes with me for a moment before falling unconcious. I scanned her face carefully, pulling back the strands of hair in front of her face.

There's no doubt, its her. The girl I fell for ten years ago.

When I brought her to the hospital, I learnt of her name and everything else. I felt like my whole world was complete - I finally found her, after being in my mind for so long.

The doctor informed me that it was all okay.

"Take your girlfriend back and let her rest. She should be fine" I nodded at his words.

I carried her into my car. I'm not sure what her family would say if I brought her back unconcious like this, so I just let her rest in my room. Not gonna lie, it was pretty nerve wrecking to have someone you like on your bed.

"Did you skip your duties and went out to write lyrics again?" my father's tone of voice was stern.

"Dad, I already finished all the paperwork. You promised me that I can write if I'm doing my CEO job."

He glares at me coldly.

"Give me your phone. You will focus on doing your job properly until I let you write again."

He's probably going to delete the lyrics I wrote in the memo. But I already had the melodies all memorised.

What I was concerned about was in fact Sohye sending me a text, but I had no say in this.

She probably forgot me anyway.

"Jimin hyung, are you sure?" Jungkook looked worried.

"Yeah, you can move in with me after. I'm done with this hellhole." I said as I stuffed the last few necessities in my luggage. I'm moving to a rented apartment, near to a studio where I can peacefully work. I lied to Dad about me going abroad.

When I arrived at the apartment, fate played games with me. When I thought I could forget her, she appears in my life again.

Kim Sohye, I really like you.
