Chapter twenty two
MEERA'S POV
"This is the last one!"
I said enthusiastically seeing that we only had to open the last box. Hobi and I finally shifted to the new place I saw earlier. The paperwork was done easily, all thanks to Mr Jeon. His name works everywhere.
Hobi came out of our room with a duster in his hands. "The room's done. Our mattresses can now be folded and be placed against the wall. I can't believe I don't do these things as a profession. I could've earned a lot more."
I laughed at his small joke as he helped with the last box. It was all done. We officially shifted to a better place. I didn't want to live alone knowing Hobi lived by himself. He sort of raised me after my father died. I couldn't just leave him alone in that apartment and live here peacefully.
I took a day off. Both at the company and from the tutoring session.
"It's all done. We did it!" Hobi jumped to me and gave me a high five. We both stood near the entrance and saw the whole place. It wasn't that decorated. We barely had things but it turned out to be just as we expected.
We looked at each other with a look that said we made it. Just don't get emotional.
"I'll make something for us to eat. You go and take a shower first." I said while going towards the kitchen.
"Okay then." He was walking away while taking off his sweaty T-shirt when the doorbell rang.
Confusion took over us. "Did you invite someone?" I asked him when he tilted his head as if remembering something.
"I just told one guy about it. I don't think he'll come here without any invitation?"
The doorbell rang again and he went to open it in a hurry. You shouldn't keep a guest waiting. I have a guest! But then he closed it.
"Who was it?" I asked from the kitchen. There was some squeaking noise so I decided to see for myself.
And there he was. Kim Taehyung.
He was trying to open the door while Hobi used all his strength to close it again. Taehyung wasn't even putting any efforts for this. He was just pretending to give his all.
"Hobi. It's fine. Just leave it."
"But I don't trust him!"
"Hobi. Hobi! Wait!" I went to him before he hurts himself. I gently touched his sweaty shoulders and asked him to move back.
"Let me come in! I have food you idiots!"
Taehyung entered the apartment and looked around in awe. "It's so much better than your previous place. Mr Jeon pays you well I guess."
"You've been to her previous place?!"
And then his eyes went to Hobi ..and me.
Shirtless Hobi and me.
His eyes flickered lightly. "Why are you shirtless?! Put something on!" He removed his own shirt and threw it at Hobi. Oh great. Just great.
"It's my house! I can walk naked if I want to!" He threw the shirt back.
"You take that back! I won't allow you to do so! Yes you heard me. I forbid you to roam shirtless around Meera. I forbid you two to sleep in the same room without any supervision."
And then the shirt flys again.
"Who are you to even forbid me? My father?! Get out before I push you out myself!"
I could see lasers coming out of their eyes and I forbid anyone to die in my precious new apartment!
"That's it!" I took Taehyung's shirt from Hobi and threw it back at him. "YOU wear your shirt!"
"Burn~" Hobi said but stepped back when he saw me glaring. "And YOU go take a shower. No buts and ifs."
I crossed my arms against my chest as they obediently did what I asked them to do. Hobi was reluctant but I shooed him away.
Taehyung went with me to the kitchen as I made coffee for him. "Thanks." He leaned against the counter and sipped it.
"Why are you here? I thought that you made yourself clear that you didn't want to see me again or else you'll kill me without any form of hesitation."
He rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment.
"I was just mad at you. You made it all about Jungkook. We were on a date and you kept talking about him. I deserve some attention too right?"
He gave me an awkward smile while I widened my eyes at him. "You nearly killed me that night for such a dumb thing! I could've died!"
"Hey look at the bright side. You didn't! You are here standing in your own kitchen.." he kept the mug aside and walked towards me. He held my shoulders to lower himself and looked me in the eyes, "..and you have a-" just then Hobi entered the kitchen to separate us.
"..and you have a roommate. Congratulations."
The tension between them died down as we all sat in the balcony with a bowl each of black bean noodles. Taehyung brought it because we shifted to a new place.
Hobi took a mouthful of his beer before looking at Taehyung. "If you knew we were shifting why didn't you come to help us? It could've been easier. I don't like you but just saying. It wasn't a two people job." He raised his hand stressing on the fact that he doesn't like him at all.
Taehyung laughed at it.
"Help you? Pfft Please. I'm Kim Taehyung. Why would I come here and move dirty boxes when I can just chill and roll on my bed all day. Duh?" He said and I swear Hobi wanted to kill him then and there.
First I stopped eating, then I rolled my eyes, took a deep defeated sigh, shook my head, took a sip of beer and focused on my noodles.
Oh Lord give me strength.

TAEHYUNG'S POV
"I know what you want."
I looked at Meera as she cleaned the kitchen. She kept the duster away and turned around. I'm glad that his friend was passed out. Couldn't even handle a beer. What a man.
"What do I want Mr Kim Taehyung?" She said tiredly. I smirked and took her hand.
An hour later we were walking in a park. It wasn't just an ordinary park. This park meant a lot to us, just separately.
"This is my favourite park." I said hoping for a reaction. Instead she stopped walking and stood near the slide, admiring it.
She remembers.
