THE PATH TOWARDS THE EXIT || BTS

ROOM #4: Jung Hoseok (3)

...

"Hey, how did you know who I am?" Hoseok asks the girl who has been silent since this afternoon. Only playing with the stray kittens in house's garden.

Micasa stares at him for a brief moment, finding it difficult to stare longer than three seconds because apparently, the guy makes her heart beat in an abnormal phase she could not understand.

"Mm... My cousins are fans of BTS." She answers curtly.

Hoseok raised a brow, a huge smile adorning his face. The girl wasn't being persistent in cleaning the whole house anymore. "Why... aren't you a fan?"

Micasa shook her head no, before clicking her tongue to answer him. "I barely have time to look at atleast the television. They always order me around."

Hoseok once again finds this aggravating. How could her family give her this much house work, she's already going through so much! She has been kind and very helpful since the morning she woke up, she's such an angel, she's pure and everything but evil, so why?

Micasa knew he wanted to ask, but it's best if she wouldn't tell... Just because someone has been kind to her, gives her the excuse to expose what her family does to her. They weren't always that bad, she thought. Her definition of kindness os different from how normal people would distinguish kindness.

Also, this new people she met, although very warm and accepting, she do not know if they will still like her once they knew about her truth. Or would she be staying here or these people are just waiting for her to leave? Afterall, she's a nuisance, a visitor, a bug, she's burdening them.

"So you're not telling me anything?" Hoseok tried, after waiting for her long procrastination. "I kinda felt like you're going through something... Aren't you?"

Micasa shook her head. "Those are issues that I should be keeping to myself and discussing with my family only."

Hoseok pouted at her. "But you said they barely make you watch television, what makes you think they will listen? They sound mean and bad to me..."

Micasa huffed. "Well, they aren't always bad. I mean, if I tell you, you'll always think of them that way and once you get to stumble on them you'll be angry at them but they're not always bad... There are times that I'm thankful for what they provide me." She was spilling out details that she doesn't realize herself.

For Hoseok, she is the easiest book to read. The most gullible person he met.

People might've known him for being the purest and kindest in BTS, but he wasn't exactly the same person behind the cameras. Of course he's still the ball of sunshine Hobi and everyone's ray of hope, but deep inside lies one of the smartest and empathetic member of BTS. He easily read between the lines, he's quick witted and more importantly, he's brave and would stand up for someone experiencing injustice. If there's something Hoseok hates the most, it's unfairness.
