Hola peeps! I am back with the next part and hope you like it...

"What?", I could feel him stutter. Did he misunderstand my words? Aish! Such a kid he is.

"Are you sober? I don't think you are", he asked again and waved his hand in front of me while I just shoved his hand.

"Jimin, I am completely sober. And I didn't ask you to stay tonight for something else. It's just that you are drenched and it's still raining", I told him and he just looked away. Did he really mistake my words?

"Oh! I am sorry but I need to go and don't worry, I do have an umbrella", he spoke with a smile on his face.

"Thank you Jimin" I felt like saying that since no one actually did this in my whole life. No one actually concerned about me like him. I don't say dad didn't take care of me, but he is really different.

"For what?", he raised his brows.

"For being concerned about me, for drying me and tolerating my drunk self everyday", I sincerely spoke those words and I saw his face becoming worried. What happened? Did I speak anything wrong?

"Hey! Are you sure about being sober? I don't think you are", he spoke and I stamped his foot making him wince in pain. I was sincerely thanking him and he is speaking all the foolish things.

"I am sorry. Now I am sure that you are sober", he yelped and I chuckled at that.

"I will be going then and meet you in the bar", he waved his hand and I was shocked.

"What about school?", I asked as I was confused why he will be skipping school tomorrow.

"Tomorrow is a second Saturday Yuri. And if you really miss me too much, I am so helpless", he smirked and she hit him.

"Yah! Will you ever speak normally? Who said that I will miss you? Now go. It's already late", I pushed his body towards the door and my fingers touched his semi dry shirt making me feel different.

To be honest, he really looked sexy with his wet hair and half exposed abs. I was just controlling myself from drooling over his body. I mentally smacked myself for thinking about him like that. Get a control over yourself Yuri.

"At least lock the door for today. I always wonder how dangerous it is for me to leave you sleeping in an unlocked house", he shook his head and I felt awed at his concern.

"Don't worry. I will knock his ass down if someone tries to do something", I assured him and he giggled.

"The drunk one would never do that. Instead, she will give the permission to rob her house", he chuckled and I felt myself embarrassed. My drunk self is really getting problematic and I wonder how he is tolerating me like that.

"Then let's just hope nothing like that happens", I shrugged and he smiled.

"Don't forget to lock the door", he yelled as he took steps away from the door. I looked at his vanishing figure and smiled to myself. I wonder why I didn't meet such a decent guy before. I locked the door remembering his words and headed back to my room.

If dad gets to know I am living like this, I am sure he will regret the decision of adopting me. But still he gave me the permission to drink. I still wonder why he is so interested in adopting me. Why didn't he find anyone else before? Why me? Does he know about me? Does he belong to them?

I traced my fingers on the tattoo on my neck and sighed to myself. I remember crying in pain when they used needles to apply that. It was all a painful time, so much to bear in one year. It was like I belong to them and have no say in my life. How could I even fight when my parents are the sole reason behind my pain?

Why was fate so cruel to me? I cried to myself thinking about all the worst days and then slowly drifted to sleep. I was really tired.

"Don't beat me there, it hurts please"

"Please not there, I beg of you"

"Let me go please. I hate this. I hate everything"

"NO", I shouted and was sweating profusely. I could feel goosebumps on my skin as I visualised it. It was just a dream, calm down Yuri. I should not call it a dream, it is a nightmare, a worst one. I immediately washed my face.

It's freaking holiday and I still woke up early. Why is this habit not reducing? I want to sleep more. Ugh! All my sleep is now gone because of that nightmare. I just hate my life. Couldn't it be any better?

And I rushed to the kitchen after brushing. And then I realised I was not having a headache today. That's really weird. Does that mean he really stopped me form drinking more than 3 glasses? I remember him asking me what he must do to earn his trust.

Is he doing this for our friendship? But I wonder why he wants to befriend me out of all the people. I noticed he never usually talks to many people except for that alien and me. That means he only keeps few people close, so why me?

As I was wondering about it, I realised no one ever asked me like that. During my first year in the high school, everyone was just so fond of my hair that they kept touching it I really got tired of them. And why I didn't allow them to do that, they just called me mean and arrogant. For fuck's sake, that isn't their property.

I just talked to few people and never had a close friend. Though I was popular back then for my mischievous works, no one actually tried to befriend me. And here I am, when that guy asked me with so much sincerity, I just declined telling him that I need time to trust.

I am sure it must be embarrassing for him to get rejected for a friendship. I responded to him as if he was asking me out. I am so stupid and dumb. Ugh! Yuri, you are such a dumbass.

I just went and had a bath peacefully and dried my hair lazily. I made myself a simple breakfast and ate it. It's so boring to live a life like this. All alone. But I feel relieved at least I won't have a drama with people.

I switched on the TV and watched some dramas. I could call them cringe-worthy stories. I just sighed and decided to take a nap. A wet hair will always makes you feel sleepy. As I was about to close my eyes, my phone rang and I smiled at the caller id. Dad.

He asked me if I was doing fine and that he is actually very busy to meet. He promised that he would be meeting me if he finds some time and that the case he is dealing is very dangerous and needs so much of efforts.

He then asked about my school and friends. I just answered that they were all fine. He then tried to crack some joke and I smiled at his efforts to make me smile. He hung the call saying that he got some meeting then and warned me to be careful.

Whenever I assume him to be something negative, he proves me that he is not. Though it still bothers me about the reason of my adoption, I decided not to think about it further. It only makes me feel more alone and insecure.

I rolled on the couch like a sloth as I felt bored like hell. I am missing school. Wait! What did I even think now? Did I get used to the school? Or did I get used to that good guy? Me and school are never a match so I am pretty sure my days are being entertained by him.

• • •

It's 10 PM and I am now battling over the options of going or not going. But I really feel so bored. At least he will be there. I finally stepped out of the door and headed towards the bar. It was my first time entering the bar at this time.

It was really crowded and I could see women in tight dressing exposing curves and now I understand why he asked my id on the first day. Some people gave me stares like I came to a wrong place. As I reached the counter, I saw him talking all smiling to a girl.

She was thin and her clothing was really sexy. And how could someone like Jimin talk to her? As far as I know he is a decent guy. As I kept staring them, I looked at him catching my eyes. He looked rather shocked and rubbed his eyes.

"Yuri", he called. He ealked to me and touched me.

"Yah! What are you doing?", I asked shoving his hand.

"I was just checking if you are real or not. I mean this isn't your usual time right?", he wondered.

"Well! Do you keep in mind about the time I arrive?", I decided to tease him.

"Of course, I do", his confidence answer made me at loss of words. I didn't expect this from him. I thought he would be stammering and get embarrassed.

"Wait, if you are early, will you drink till the end?", he asked me widening his eyes and I chuckled at his words.

"Don't worry, I will start drinking at the end", I assured him and he let out a smile.

"One more glass, Mr Handsome", one girl called and he excused me, rushing to her. I saw the girl trying to seduce him and there were many like that while he just politely declined everyone. I smiled at his innocence.

He kept stealing glances from me often and I smiled back. Once he serves the people at the counter, he comes back to me to have a small talk and again goes when a customer calls for him. I am not complaining as I was the one who came early.

As my eyes around the bar, my eyes caught the attention of a particular girl. As I kept staring, I realised she was the one who Jimin was speaking to, some time ago. She is a stripper, I sighed. Are they friends? Or something else?

"What are you thinking?", he asked me and I just shook my head in negation.

"Are you thinking about me?", he smirked and I slapped his arm while he let out a small laugh.

"How was your day?", he asked while setting some glass and I thought about my day. Is there anything to say? Sleep, Eat and Repeat. Wait! I did watch TV in between.

"Very boring", I answered and he diverted his eyes towards me.

"Are you indirectly telling me that you missed me?", he winked and I rolled my eyes. How did he even turn my words like that? I tapped on his forehead and he frowned, laughing slowly. I shook my head in disbelief.

And there he was called again? I didn't even have a proper talk with him. He really knows how to tease me unlike me trying to think of way to play him. I smiled while glancing him serving to the customers.

As time passed by, the bar became isolated and this is the closing time. So, it's my turn to drink now.

"One glass for me, Mr Handsome", I imitated the girl before and he rolled his eyes. He waved his hand to one girl with whom he had a good conversation and she left from there.

"Who is she?", I asked him as my curiosity is literally burying me to death.

"Why? Are you perhaps, jealous?", he smirked leaning closer. I pulled his ears and there he yelped in pain like a small kid.

"You are such a dangerous one", he scoffed at me while cleaning the counter.

"Wait! Did you forget to pour my glass of drink?", I asked him and he gave me an evil grin.

"Today, I have a condition.", he leaned on the counter and smiled.

"What?", I asked him as I know his conditions would something childish or funny.

"I know it is boring for you sitting all day. So shall we hang out tomorrow?", he asked making me internally scream. I wanted to chill out since long and I really want a company. Jimin could be the best one.

"Yeah! Sure", I answered not wanting to show my eagerness.

"But on one condition", he continued and I raised my brows.

"You will not drink today. Only then you can hang out with us", he spoke making my jaw drop. I want to drink now. But I want to enjoy the holiday too.

"Fine", I agreed though my eyes couldn't stop staring at the bottle he is placing back. That's the drink he is supposed to pour in my glass. Wait! Did he tell us? I thought it would just us.

"What do you mean by us? I mean who is the other one", I just hope it isn't the one whom I am thinking.

"You, me and Taehyung"
