THE KING

33

Y/n regretted opening the door. She wondered what made her go open the door instead of asking Radha, their maid to open it. She should've been in her room all day long sleeping instead. Pouring the drink into the glass, she picked up the trays of snacks and drinks walking out to the living room, to the 6 people who were waiting for her.

"Oh there comes the old grandma." Rohan commented, pointing out to her.

"Shut up Ro! You guys have disturbed my sleep." Y/n placed the trays onto the table, looking at them.

Rohan, Karan and Aditi aka his girlfriend, Maya, Aksh and Mira.

Adithi and Rohan were friends from her childhood. Karan and Aksh were introduced by Rohan during their college days and coming to the twins; maya and mira, they were actually her cousins but got closer to the group due to y/n.

"As if you were sleeping". Karan rolled his eyes busy munching on the chips, turning on the television. "You came out holding the vase ready to bang my head with it."

y/n scoffed falling back on the single couch beside the coffee table where her phone is resting. "A normal person would just knock on the door properly. Not play a musical orchestra on it." she grabbed her phone checking the messages again.

Checking the messages from jungkook.

"There are none." she thought,putting the phone aside. "Must be busy."

"Anyways, why are you guys here?" putting an arm over her eyes, she covered the blinding light as she was still in her sleepy mood.

"To take you with us." Mira answered by pulling the controller from karan's hands giving a head shot to him. "Put on a good movie dude. Not your shitty romantic ones. We all are here, not only your girlfriend."

"Where?" y/n tried to glance at them but looked at rohan who was sitting near her. "It's a fun place, girl. You will love it for sure." she waved a hand in the air telling them that she's not interested in going now.

"Includes hiking and boat riding. Campfire near the river and a nice place to stay between the whole greenery." 

"But-"

"No buts. You already had done with your case. Also hand it to the officials, now you're totally free. Go pack your luggage now." Rohan pulled her up from the sofa, dragging her to the room and locking from outside.

"Go fresh up! We don't want a crusty puffy eyed and overly moody y/n."

"09...10...11 12! Oh that's the house, your majesty." John pointed out to a building from a few blocks afar. "John! Not your majesty please, at least not here. It's justin or jaykay for now." i patted his back, walking to the building he pointed to.

The house looks really cozy from outside. It looks really pretty and modern. "Roy's residence." It was mentioned on the nameplate. I took a deep breath, walking inside, opening the gate, with johnson.

Licking my lips nervously, I rang the doorbell, gripping on the straps of my bag tightly. Waiting for the person to open it, I glanced at John who was standing so stiffly looking around being attentive. "You don't need to be that sturdy, you know." laughing a little, I tried to bring up a light atmosphere around.

In a few seconds, the door opened, a middle aged woman coming into view. Her face looks similar to Y/n. Her eyebrows and her nose and the face cut exactly looks like y/n. It's her mom. I smiled a little, presenting myself in a good way to her.

"Namaste. I'm Jaykay . Y/n's friend." I looked up to see her smiling a little, welcoming inside. "And it's john. He's with me." She smiled, looking like a copy of y/n, whose smile I miss the most.

"Please come in." leaving my footwear at the doorstep to a side, we followed her inside. "I'm y/n's mother." She spoke in english, motioning us to sit at the sofa in the living room. "I thought so. She looks the exact same as you." my lips curve up, remembering the pretty girl who made me hang off a cliff for her love.

"Many people say that." Y/n's mother laughed, walking to the other room, which I assume was the kitchen. I glanced at John who was still standing looking at me. "Please sit-"

Before I could speak, my gaze landed on a person who entered the living room. Her father. I could easily recognise him because y/n spoke about him many times and also showed me a picture of him.

Standing up to my feet, I politely bowed to him. He just smiled back sitting on the single couch. "Hello sir, I'm-" "Hes jaykay and that's john, y/n's friends." y/n mother came back from the kitchen holding a tray with some cups.

I smiled, taking one cup which she offered me. "Thank you." Turning to John, I tugged at his pants. "Sit down, will you?" I mouthed.

"No maje-" I shut him up, putting my finger on my lips, shushing him. I adjusted my bucket hat and put a mask immediately after drinking the chai.

"Why is that bulky muscle man standing?" Turning back to her dad, I sheepishly smiled under the mask. "His legs are probably numb as he's sitting for too long." I nervously smiled at him.

Soon I found myself glancing at her dad. It would be a lie if I didn't say that he looked so bold and intimidating. I bit my lips before asking him, where y/n was. "Umm...sir? Where is y/n?"

"Oh young man! Didn't she say that to you? Her friends dragged her to a holiday spot. Here is the location." He handed a small book which was immediately taken by John, checking the location and handing it back to him quickly.

"He looks more like a bodyguard than a friend."
