<13> The Best Brother

I didn't wait for my brother to pick me up from school and ran all the way to home crying. People on the street gave their sorry looks to me but I was not bothered by them. I just wanted to go to home and my room and confine myself there crying my heart out.

I thrashed open the door , took off my shoes hurriedly and ran upstairs to my room ignoring the calls from my mother downstairs and locked the door. I submerged my face in the pillow and cried like there is no tomorrow. One could hear the large thuddings on the door by Mom who was worried as sick as evident from her voice,

Y/N/M:" Y/N! Dear, what happened? Why did you lock the door? Your brother has called me that you didn't answer his calls as he was waiting for you at school. He was so worried! This is being irresponsible !"

Y/N:" Mom! I want to be alone please."

Y/N/M:" Dear",(Voice softening)," Did something happen at school? Share with me Y/N."

Mom sighed and retired downstairs after not getting any reply. I am feeling guilty behaving that way towards her but I am really feeling terrible right now.

After 30 minutes, the door of the living room was barged open by an angry Seokjin.

Jin:" Where is Y/N!!"?

Y/N/M:" You have arrived at last! Thank goodness! Do something about your sister. She has confined herself in her room for past 1 hr; not responding to us. I am hella scared Seokjin." Her voice shivered as he explained the situation to him.

Jin was astounded and hurriedly made his way upstairs down to the corner of hall where his sister has clumped herself in her room.

Jin: (Banging the door )"Y/N!! Open the door right now! Do you know how hella worried I was when you didn't reply to my calls and I was running to and fro around the campus asking every student whether they have seen you! Y/N! Open the door right now!"

I could hear the angry yelling of my brother, I felt too guilty to have him worried like that for me which made me feel more pitiful. And thats the way more reason I didn't want to talk to him right now.

Y/N:" Ahh Oppa! I am sorry. Forgive me. This won't happen again. But please now I want to be alone."

I retired back to my pillow hoping Jin would leave like Mom but my eyes widened when he said," I don't want your excuses! If you don't open the door right now, I am gonna barge right away even if it means I have to break the door."

I didn't have any option but to open the door for him cause one could easily tell he was dead serious from his angry voice.

I open the door shabbily anticipating scoldings from one of my star ,i.e. is my brother but to my surprise he hugged me tightly making it hard for me to breathe.

Jin:" You Pabo!! I am so relieved you are okay!" He replied breaking down into tears.

I felt unknowingly so warm in my heart that the warmth burnt down all the bad memories as of now. Seokjin who has always encouraged us by staying strong and emitting his positivity and world wide handsome smile to everyone just so they can be happy despite facing his own turmoils within himself, is now crying; crying loudly for his sister.

I hugged him back and also cried my heart out. I could hear his sobs and him chanting calming words in my ears as he constantly patted my head," Shush! Its gonna be alright."

Yes, this warmth is what I needed right now, what I craved for in my previous world, the feeling of being loved, the feeling of being someone special which was absent in my past world. Now I didn't care about anything; I let myself be drowned in the warmth of my brother as we hugged for a long time~~

Y/N:" Wait for me oppa! You are too fast!"

Jin:" Aissh! You are even slower than a tortoise. Hurry up or we will miss the movie tickets." Jin said in a teasing manner.

Y/N:" Yah !( catching my breathe) I am not slow; you are just too fast given those long slender sexy legs of yours!" I said pulling out my tongue to which Seokjin just laughed heartily. Yeah my brother forced me into coming with him to a movie theater to make me feel better; despite my constant nagging that I am fine but he wouldn't listen to me. So here I am, in front of the movie theater with one of my stars and heading somewhat into a movie date uwuu.

Jin:" Lets go! " Jin holded my wrist and dragged me towards the queue inside the hall and I wish the subtle warmth in his grip remains forever.

Y/N:" I want the biggesttt popcorn !"

Jin:" WOW you do have a big appetite! Were you a pig in your previous life? Pig oink oink!! "

Y/N:" Yahh! What are you calling your beautiful sister huh! I am worldwide handsome's one and only sister~~ Miss worldwide beauty! "

Jin:" hmmm you can say that~~But your beauty is no match for me"

With that he started making faces in an attempt to tease me,and I could barely hold my laughter and burst out laughing.

Jin:" Smile suits you best. Tears are not the ornaments of your face."

I stopped laughing and looked at his direction only to see him smiling warmly with his eyes filled with adoration and care for me. Unconsciously, my hands found its way through his waist as I hugged him tightly inside the movie theater.

Jin: (patting my head)" Its okay to have a bad day at school. But you know you always have your oppa beside you."

I just nodded my head ,snuggling deep inside his chest.

Jin:" The movie is starting pabo.You surely don't want to miss watching your favourite actor "

Y/N:" Ofcourse not! Lets gooo!"

Y/N:" The movie was soooooo good! Thriller and romance was blooming every now and then! The twists in it made the movie even more spectacular------"

I was constantly blabbering my way out and Seokjin would just nod his head in affirmation with his usual sunny smile plastered over his lips probably satisfied at uplifting the mood of his beloved sister.

Y/N:" And the actor ! Wasn't he the hottest out there!!!? I swear I was going to have a heart break when the heroine walked into the room exposing him shirtless AHHHH"

Jin:" Yeah he is hot but not as hot as your brother." Seokjin retorted with a wink from his eyes .

I just rolled my eyes in disagreement but deep in my heart I know he is the hottest brother ever!

Seoul is thrilling. Crowds of people shuffling around, ruins and shopping and shows, food of all kinds to taste and savour.

We ended up eating from nearly all the stalls, Seokjin heading from vendor to vendor and picking out what looks the best. I smile at him, snapping pictures of the food and Seokjin. Seokjin wonders how many of the photos will end up in my camera but I didn't mind that if I could keep him close like that .

After we eat our fill, we stroll through the street market. Seokjin grins when he spots a straw fedora hat and walks over to it. He picks it up and turns to see his sister sauntering up to him. Seokjin holds the hat out for me to see and says, "This one suits you."

I smirk, "What's wrong with my hat?"

Seokjin grins. "You look like a corny mother on vacation." He reaches forward and slips the hat off my head that I was wearing. He places the fedora on my head carefully, playing with me fringe until it sits just right. He steps back and smiles at his work. "There. Now you look like a mother on vacation, but less corny."

I just scoff and rolls my eyes but I don't remove the hat. "I look good in anything I wear."

Seokjin shrugs and places my hat on his own hat, raising his eyebrows and giving me a model look. "But I look better in this don't I?" My mouth parts and my eyes blink at Seokjin. Seokjin laughs and winks. "Point proven." He steps into the stall to pay for the hat.

When I come back out, I finds Y/N smiling fondly down at her camera, going through her pictures. Her eyes are scrunched up into half-moons, with her wide smile, a shake to her shoulders as she laughs at a picture.

" Smile definitely suits her the best."
