14 - Failed Brother (2)

*Jimin's pov*

"Hyung can we go home now? I'm bored here" He shouts as he runs forward to get me off the chair "Ji sung-ah, wait let me finish this one mail, If you wait then I'll get you your favorite car" he patiently waits for me while I'm working

It's been 5 years since I adopted him, he's now 8 years old, I named him Park Ji sung because he said he didn't like the name his parents gave him, he was only 3 year old when I took him in.. Halmeoni asked me to take care of him as she could no longer do so, his father was an alcoholic and his mother decided to leave him and that's when halmeoni took him.. "Jimin-ah, please take of care of him, he's only a child, I don't think I can stay any longer.. besides you will no longer be alone, think of him as your own brother, take care of both you and him for me, can you?" these were halmi's last words to me, the only support we had when Jieun was in the hospital was Halmi and I know the pain of being left alone and I don't wanna leave him, then there would be no difference between me and my father.

"Let's go, I'm done" I turn around to see him sleeping beautifully on the couch, he must be tired after school, I carried him and my assistant helped me carry his bag, on the way home I stopped by the store to get his favorite toy, as I neared home I saw a familiar black SUV parked near my house, there were two people standing outside the door, It was Sohee and the other must be Jung Hoseok, I grab my phone, his bags and carry him and walk towards them

Sohee was about to hug me but stopped when she saw the cute little pumpkin on my back "Oppa, who's this? He's so cute" "This is my brother, Park Ji sung" "But oppa you never had a brother" "Yeah, remember I told you about that halmeoni? He is her grandson, I adopted him after her death" "Ahhh, I'm sorry, He's so cute, when he wakes up he's all mine" Hoseok bowed to me and I replied with a sweet smile

We got into the house and we were all talking, Hosoek seemed like a nice guy, they both must be bestfriends I suppose

After an hour or so Ji sung woke up, It was awkward at first but Sohee and Ji sung got together well, Hoseok and I were left in the hall, he was staring at a picture of Jieun "That's my sister, Jieun, Sohee must've told you" I asked him "Yeah, I'm sorry, she's a beautiful little girl" "That she is, I miss her a lot" I replied as the pain in my chest gradually builds  up "Don't worry, she must be doing fine, she must be watching over you and wouldn't want you to be sad, don't think you weren't a good brother to her, from what I noticed you must've been all the support she ever needed" somehow his words felt real, comforting.. as if he had met Jieun "I hope so.. I've been living because of Ji sung and my promise to Jieun, thanks Hoseok" he smiled in a very angelic way, I'm happy Sohee had him when she was all alone

"Hyuuuuuuung!" Ji sung runs towards me "Aigoo, Ji sung-ah what happened?" I poke his pouty cheeks "I slept and so I couldn't buy the car, I just remembered it now" "Oh no! Now what do we do?" I slowly get up from the couch and head towards the kitchen table to get the car "Ji sung-ah, can you perhaps play with this one instead?" his pouty face turns into a happy face as soon as he saw the car, seeing him happy makes me all happy inside "Thanks hyung, saranghae" he hugs my legs tightly, I kiss him on the forehead and hand him his car

"Sohee, would you want to play with me?" she nods at him "Yah! she is older than you, where are your manners?" I scold him like how a mother would "Hyung she told me not to call her noona, she wants to be my friend because she has no friends" he pouts "Jimin ssi, just let them be, she's sometimes a child too" Hosoek spoke as Sohee walked towards him, holding his hand 

"Oppa, are you perhaps his mother?" she teases me as Ji sung burst out laughing "Omma omma" Ji sung also starts teasing me, they both sure do get along well

Hoseok and I talked for a while, he updated me about Sohee's life when I wasn't there, she is now the owner of a company, she's now grown into a beautiful and strong woman
