chapter 23: House Work

Take me back?! Is he insane? After all he's done?! I was about to chew him out but he cut me off.

"Here me out," he said gripping my hand, his eyes pleading. "I've done some awful things, I regret it. But when I saw you with those other guys, I realized you are mine." I started to look at him as if he was really insane. "April, your not listening. I love you. And I really need you in my life."

I don't know what possessed Josh to say this. And a while back, this would've been an accomplishment. I removed his hand from mine but he snatched it back so quickly.

"Common April, I know there's no one else. I'm the one for you. Lizzie's not right for me!" He begged.

"Josh, you are insane. Lizzie's not the one for you because she's pregnant. " His eyes got wide. "You don't love me Josh, your jealous because I moved on, and your miserable." Now was my chance to look at him as if he was trash, but just in this short time, I've matured.

"That's not it! I just broke up with you almost two or three weeks now! How can you be over me that quick?!" He asked now pleading.

I wanted to say 'I have many reasons why I'm over You' but that wouldn't have been appropriate.

"So you take me back? And then what? Our relationship, it won't be the same. No matter how bad you want it to be. I hope you stay around with Lizzie, she's going to need you in a time like this. You made bad descisions, but what our breakup has taught me is to not run away from your problems." I said.

You go gurl. You drop that mic. I thought to myself. I got up and walked out to the door, not before I heard him sniffling.

I turned around. "But Josh, if you want to be friends, I'll be your friend."

Josh was breaking down. I've never seen him cry so hard. People were looking over and I gave him a hug. Jimin was forgiving, so maybe I should be too. He clung to me pouring out tear after tear onto my brand new shirt.

He looked up from his fit "I— I would like to be.......friends."

I smiled at him. It was the very first time I felt at pease with him. I've only ever loved him, or hated him. But right now, I wanted to be there for him. He was struggling, and even though he deserved it, he is human.

"Josh, I'm leaving now. But I want you to return the money you took. You are only digging yourself into a deeper hole. Figure out how to get the money another way." I told him walking away.

I was outside of the door when I saw Josh return the money. I smiled. Good.

I took the bus over to Rapmonster's house. When I arrived, everyone was already there. I saw new paint, fresh floor boards to be installed, and supplies.

"How in the world did we aquire all this stuff?" I looked at Jennie, Jungkook, V, Jimin, and Elizabeth stunned.

"Some handsome man stopped by and dropped it off" Jungkook said.

Jin. This is proof he's an angel.

I smiled at them. "You ready to do this guys?!"

"Yeah!" They said.

Jennie looked at my shirt. "What happened there?"

I looked down at my tear drenched shirt. "Josh."

"Tell me every detail tonight. I'll call you and add Lisa on the line."

I nodded happily. First we started clearing out the house of all the damage. It took a hefty two hours so we sat down, ate fruit and drank sodas.

We were all tired and sweaty, but it was worth it.

V was staring adoringly at Jennie and she laughed him off. I knew they were together again, they didn't need a title. Jimin and Elizabeth also looked like they had fun, I was so thankful to them. And Jungkook looked a lot more happy. I'm glad I got to know him, he's much different than the first impression I got from him.

"Lets paint one wall and call it a night." I said.

We all agreed and got back up painting. I turned on the Bangtan's Boys song  Silver Spoon and I kept working. When I turned to dip my paint roller back into the paint, I ran straight into Jungkook's paint brush.

He laughed at me for a good three minutes then finally said. "You got something on your nose, and your cheek."

I laughed. It was funny, at first I was going to tell him to shutup but my clumsiness sometimes humored me.

He held my face in his hand and  wiped it off with his other hand then kept painting. " I could've done it myself" I wispherd not wanting to go get any more paint. I ignored my heart beating and focused on the task at hand.

The house was looking better than ever. Sure there was still so much to clean, and if I had enough money, I would've bought all new furniture. It's just that he worked so hard I wanted to show him it pays off. But I could only dream of that.

Tomorrow I'd have to figure out how to install new flooring. The gang really did ruin his house, but I knew if I had help I could fix it. We could fix it. Hopefully they would want to help me.

I heard the doorbell go off. I looked at Jennie confused. "It's dinner of course!" She said jumping over paint and trash to go get it.

She came back with three boxes of chicken and sat down. "Dinner's here!" She called.

We all ran toward the chicken and sat on floor and dug in.

I had to admit, this was the best time I had in a long time.

The sun was setting. We were outside and the sky was red, orange, and yellow. It was warm and the breeze was wonderful. When we were done eating they started to leave. Jimin and Elizabeth waved goodbye then left. After that, V kissed Jennie and drove off, leaving her to drive home. Jungkook turned to me and gave me an envelope.

I was surprised. I hadn't worked for him today so I wasn't sure why. I already knew it was money. By the feel of it.

"I had some extra cash, I kinda overheard you talking at the hospital and I want to help Rapmonster out a little bit. Maybe we could get him some new furniture." He said.

I couldn't believe it. Was everyone an angel these days? I wanted to hug him, but he cared a lot about personal  space. "I don't know how to thank you! This is so amazing!"

He shrugged and walked towards his car. "Do you have a ride?"

I didn't. I wanted to get into that car with Jungkook and ride through the sunset until I got to my house. But I said no. No matter how hard I wanted to, I've been through so much. And I wanted to be better with my descisions.

"Thanks, but I'll take the bus. You can go." I said regretting every word as I said them.

Jungkook looked away a bit embarrassed but got into his car and rode off.

Huh. I told him to go and he actually went.....

Once I arrived home I heard yelling from inside. I walked in and I saw my mother furious.

"Mom?! What are you doing??" I yelled. I hated it when she arrived out of no where with no notice. It had been almost a year and a half. What had possessed her to come back now?

She rolled her eyes and grabbed my arm shoving me on the couch. She looked so skinny and her faced was extremely worked on. She was wearing very little clothing. A shirt cut low with nothing under it and shorts shorter than Min Yoongi.

"What do you think I'm doing here brat? We're moving." She spat stuffing a cigarette in her blown up lips.

"Moving?!" I said feeling tears well up.
