"What are you doing here, Ryujin-ah? You don't like beer?" Younghoon asked

We're now here at the front parlor. Younghoon, Haruto and Taehyung just arrived because they visited an orphanage.  Haruto is with his friends while Taehyung is with Jaemin and Sunghoon. The rest are drinking some beer

"I'm still a minor" I reasoned out

I learned how to drink when I was 13 but I don't drink too much because I have low alcohol tolerance

"The word 'minor' is not on our vocabulary here in District 9" Younghoon said and laughed

Haechan later on came and sat beside me. I can't look at him in the eyes because of what I heard earlier. I won't judge him because of what I heard because it's between him and Jaemin. Their conflict started before I get here but I can't stop myself from thinking about Jaemin's question to him 

Does he like me because I looked like Ji Eun? Is that the reason why he was so kind to me? Or he's just being like that because he see Ji Eun in me?

I hope that's not the case because I'm really comfortable with him now

"Is there a problem, Ryujin-ah?" Haechan asked

"I'm just tired" I smiled awkwardly

"You can rest now in your room if you want to, don't worry about the others, I'm gonna tell them"

"Thanks"

I immediately go back to my room and get changed. While I was changing I noticed Jaemin's hoodie on my closet. I stared at it for a moment and later on decided to wear it. It's so comfy to wear so I think it's okay for me to wear it on bed

I tried to sleep but I can't. What I heard earlier keeps playing on my mind. I'm also thinking whether I should ask Haechan about it or just remain silent and pretend that I didn't heard it

I later on opened my laptop and called Beomgyu

[ Zup, Ryujin-ah. Thanks for disturbing my sleep ]  he sarcastically said

It looks like he's already sleeping and I woke him up

"I have something to tell you"

[ I'm really sleepy right now. Make sure that the reason why you called is worth it to listen ]

"This is about the guy that I like"

[ Oh it's about the guy that you li---Wait! Did I heard it right? Did you just said that it's about the guy that you like? ] he asked with his eyes wide open

He immediately got up from his bed and opened the lights of his room

[ Wait a minute ]

He left his phone and came back after a few minutes and he's already wearing a hoodie jacket

"What a miracle, you're wearing hoodie jacket now?" I asked confusedly since Beomgyu really hates wearing hoodie jacket. He said he looks like a nerd whenever he's wearing one so he never really wears a hoodie jacket. He's more into plain t-shirt

[ I just realized that hoodie jacket suits me ] he said and smiled

"It doesn't suits you tho, you look like a mochi but an ugly one"

I laughed when his expression changed

[ Don't change the topic, tell me about this unlucky guy that you like ]

I sighed heavily and even looked around my room to check if someone was spying on me

"His name is Jaemin..."
