Chapter Eight
Unexpected Encounter?
[Jimin PV]
Waking up to the sound of Rea, shuffling about in her room. I couldn't help but get up out of my own bed and began to head to the bathroom to begin my morning routine.
Shower, brush my teeth, wash my face, and comb my hair.
Let's not forget as well as running a hand through my scalp full of luscious ebony colored locks.
Opening my room door, I was surprised to see Rea coming out of her room as well. However, what shocked me the most was that she was in her undergarments.
Upon seeing me standing there, she yelped and flew back to her room as fast as she had come out of it.
I stood where I had been since seeing her come out of her room. It's been 5 minutes now since I been standing here, and I'm now just concluding that the reason she hasn't come out of her room is because she wants me to finish first, or because she's embarrassed of the encounter we just had.
Assuming it's the latter. I began to make my way to the bathroom to prepare myself for this morning.
After showering, I made my way over to the sink to wash my face with facial cleanser. Once finished doing that, I began to brush my teeth.
After I had finished brushing my teeth, I began to comb through my hair while doing so I heard Rea's door open hesitantly as if she was scared to come out of her room, after all, she had been in there for the past 45 minutes since our last encounter.
Coming out of the bathroom, with my dirty clothes in one hand and a towel wrapped around my waist I was greeted by a flustered Rea who bowed to me once our eyes met.
I'm so sorry about what happened earlier, I have a habit of sleeping with my undergarments.
"No, worries."
I was surprised that's for sure. Most importantly no harm was done so don't worry about it.
Also, sorry for seeing something I wasn't supposed to see. I apologized although I wasn't the one at fault here.
"No, I'm the one that should be apologizing. You weren't the one who walked around in their undergarments oblivious of the other such as I had."
Rea stated, shaking her head as if seeing the image of us both looking at each other with open wide mouths once we had come across each other in the state that we were in.
Don't sweat it, Rea.
It's not a big deal.
"O-Okay. She stammered, as she once more tilted her head in apology then began making her way towards the bathroom as well."
I'll see you in the kitchen, once you're finished handling your business. I'll be making breakfast this morning.
How does pancakes, and sausages along with a nice cup of coffee sound to you?
I asked quirking my eyebrows at her.
"That sounds absolutely delicious!"
Count me in she said smiling that cute smile of hers that displayed a dimple on her right cheek.
"It's a deal then."
I'll be seeing you later then Rea. I retorted before making my way to my room to finish getting ready.
(20 minutes later)
Pulling a bowl from out of the kitchen cabinet I began pouring in the pancake batter then mixing in 1/3 of a cup of milk afterward I began to stir as the instructions on the side of the box told me to do so.
Once, I had stirred the batter to the point it was smooth and there were no visible lumps in it I poured the contents into the sizzling pan that sat on the stove top waiting to be used.
No later than 10 minutes, I had finished my first pancake. Placing it on the plate on the countertop I went back the stove-top and began making another pancake. I repeated the process until I had 4 perfectly round pancakes sitting stacked upon one another on the plate I sat on the countertop.
Once finished, with the pancakes. I began frying the sausages, the way dad taught me growing up. They were so golden brown, and juicy looking' exactly how I remembered dad making his sausages appear.
While assembling our plates. Rea came out of her room clad in all-white overalls, accompanied by a baby blue hoodie underneath and baby blue timberlands on her feet.
She had her hair plaited into two long braids, along with a white matching snapback accompanied by her glasses.
I stood motionless as she flashed me that cute smile of hers, bringing that cute dimple of hers back into the display.
"Hey" I greeted while still looking at her.
She's so beautiful that I can't keep my eyes off her flawless make-up free face.
"Good morning"
She said as she came to sit on the island, located in front of me.
Reaching for her plate she stopped midway and grabbed my hand giving it a soft squeeze.
"Thanks so much for the Breakfast ChimChim"
She cooed as she smiled up at me.
"You're welcome, and did you just call me "ChimChim I asked laughing softly."
Yes, do you not like it.
She asked looking me square in the eyes, with those beautiful brown orbs of hers.
"I like it, it's just I'm not used to that nickname"
It's been a while since I was last referred to as "ChimChim" I told her.
While admiring the beautiful faces she'd make with every bite she'd take into the pancakes I made for her along with the sausages.
"I don't see how so, it's such a cute name."
Rea said once more as she took a sip of her coffee.
"You think so, I asked."
Rubbing the back of my neck nervously.
"Ne, I absolutely think so."
She answered smiling sincerely.
"Since you put it that way." I'm starting to like hearing my nickname coming from you.
I answered running a hand through my locks as I watched her eyes get big as she followed my movements.
"Hajima."
She huffed.
"Wai!" I asked although I knew why.
"You know why, ChimChim."
She pouted placing her hand over her heart.
"Ani, I don't."
I further teased watching her getting flustered as she fanned herself with her hand.
"Oh, whatever."
She bit out as she nervously avoided my eyes.
"Kyeopta!"
I remarked while taking a bite out of my own pancakes accompanied by the fantastic sausages I had made.
"What!?" Rea asked eyeing me down.
"You're cute."
I answered back watching her swallow nervously before taking a sip of her coffee once more.
"T-Thank you."
She replied meeting my stare head-on.
"You're welcome senorita."
I remarked watching her cheeks turn crimson in color.
[A/N: Both Jimin & Rea don't start classes until the following week, that's why they're still at home].
[Rea PV]
Finished with my breakfast, I headed to the sink and placed my plate in the sink.
Turning around I was greeted by Jimin who was reaching around me to place his plate in the sink as well.
"You could have let me move out the way."
I said laughing softly.
"I know, I still wanted to discard of my dishes this way though."
Jimin answered running a hand through his hair in the process.
"What are you doing for the day?"
Jimin asked.
"Nothing much."
Why do you ask? I answered back quirking my eyebrows at him.
"I'm hanging out with the guys all today, and wanted to know if you'd like to tag along with your friend"
We're planning to do a lot of things.
"Let me think about it."
I said. Although it was already "Yes"
Walking around the kitchen I placed my hand on the side of my face as if in deep thought just to see what Jimin would do.
He stood to my side glancing back at me with one of his eyebrows raised questioningly.
"So…" he asked meeting my gaze.
"Sure, I'll go."
I answered smiling, as I began to make my way to get my purse. I never leave anywhere without it.
