#'yeah i have somehting I want to talk to you about. can we schedule a phone call thursday at 10:30am?'

one of the bad things about having such low social energy/social anhedonia/little interest in interacting with others in any capacity/ Hermit Disease™ is that like.. once every FIVE months here and there I’ll get fleeting bursts of social energy and will message one or two people to catch up with old friends or etc. and then it’s like... 
tfw you message someone and then wake up the next morning to see that they REPLIED to your message so now you’re actually supposed to message them back, which is an obligation you were somehow not expecting despite the fact that YOU sent them a message 
Tumblr media
#I feel bad because it's like.. I know I WAS THE ONE who reached out to you but also I have depleted all of my energy stores and have like no#capacity to respond that this point.. Which usually I'll get to it in like 2-7 days and people who know me (people who I would actually#message) know this/are aware it doesn't mean anything/are okay with it so its not really a big deal but still lol#girls and squirrels i am so sorry i dont know what to tell you but I have Disorders gjhgbhj#oh same thing when someone messages me and then I respond and I'm like 'whew finally got that off the to do list! now I dont have to worry#about social interactions for the next few days' and they RESPOND to my RESPONSE within like 30 minutes of sending it#so now I'm back at the point where I owe them a response even though i JUST crossed that off my to do list ghbh#And there's some people out here who are like 'omg.. if people don't text me back in 30 minutes then they must hate me! i want to be texted#back immediately. true friends will drop everything theyre doing just to text you!! >:T' whereas I'm like#god if I reply to you and you reply back to me within less than 24 hours I'm going to scream... just give it a good 2 or 3 days.. let the#message sit PLEASE.. it's social buffer time.. let's recharge our energy... the the conov age like a fine wine#(unless it's urgent. obv if we're coordinating plans or scheduling something we both must reply promptly exactly)#AND ALS THIS IS just a caveat of text communication like I HATE text communication. another reason it's SO hard to find new friends is that#nobody wants to just talk on the phone/discord voice chat/Some Medium Of Real Time Audio Communication anymore#everyone is like.. 'oh just send short little messages through a stupid fucking chat client or text me or message me on a social media' and#it's like.................................... no........ i dont think I will#Real time communication is SO MUCH faster and more efficient like. It would take me 2 hours to type something that I could say in a 30 minut#e conversation. People who I have genuine conversations with (like 5 hour long talks) are the ones who are not afraid to just be like#'yeah i have somehting I want to talk to you about. can we schedule a phone call thursday at 10:30am?'#also like.. if you text me at 3pm I am not going to respond to the message (depending on the contents-obv will reply sooner if#urgent) probably until 3 or 4 days later. If you call me at 3pm then we're talking at 3pm for as long as you want (or as long as is practica#l - also assuming I'm not already in the middle of something etc. etc.)#Like phone calls/voice calls/whatever - are so good because it's immediate. no having to go through and spell check. I am also a rambling pe#rson with complicated thoughts and i AM INCAPABLE of having short conversations. no matter how hard I try#you send me a sentence of text and I will write back 3 paragraphs. this makes text-form communication THAT much more taxing and time consumi#ng  - whereas I can explain even really complicated things in Real time in like 20 minutes MAX when it would take 1.5hr to type and proofrea#d and etc. in text. ALSO I love that it is a Structured ONE TIME interaction. I know eactly when a phone call will start and can plan for#when it will end. Text form communications are ongoing background interactions with no clear start or end. no structure. etc.#in person/phone/real time communication is just SO much easier for my brain to process and depletes my social energy slower#. it stinks that the entire earth is slowly moving away from the only form of social interaction that is convenient to me lol.. BUT ANYWAY

Interview with a Spirit:
What name do you want to be called for this interview? SD.
What sort of entity are you? Demon, though Shadow Spirit is more accurate.
What's your favorite color? Blue.
Favorite scent? Fruit? I like citric scents.
Favorite food? Sweets.
Do you like alcohol? Ew, no. It's gross and vile. I agree.
Pet peeves? People who aren't open to others or judge too soon. Like, learn about the person first!
Favorite things? Music.
Any other favorite things? Uh... Art, Sunsets, stars, traveling and seeing different places. The calm beauty of the world.
Favorite animal? Raven. I like crows better. I know you like crows better and you need to stop.
Nicknames? Nox. Any I haven't given you? Uh, Artie.
Any magical specialties? Nightmares, shadows, protection. (he also counts his love as a magical ability. the dork)
Favorite offerings? Food. Smartass. (chuckles) Sweets.
Least fav. offerings? Fruit ironically.
Favorite gem? Diamonds actually.
Favorite plant? Lilac and Lavender.
You're such a CUTIE~ No I'm not! You ARE~ I'm not a cutie! YOU'RE a cutie!!.......(SD get's flustered) noooooo =A= why are you adding thaaaaaat?
Do you have a family? Not anymore? But....... (hands gesture aimlessly around) But... You're apart of our family now. Yes. You are my family.
Favorite activities? Talking with other Spirits, I have some friends you haven't met. I'm thinking of introducing you to them. SWEET!! (amused) Once you get a better grip on you're new work schedule. .....yeeeeaaaaah.... =^=
Other activities? I like hanging around watching you. I'm not very interesting. I disagree. (*insert very dorky cheesy stuff here*) What you do during the day is actually very interesting. Like how you interact with other people.
I also like nature hikes, though I tend to leave the state for those. Not much around here. Tell me about it.
Least Favorite activities? Work. (me laughing) I have to do it now and then though.
What would you like to improve upon yourself? Oh geez. Uh, that's a toughie. (thinks for a bit) My abilities. What do you mean? I want to get stronger? Fine tune it. I want to be able to protect more. Maybe learn somehting new along the way.
What is something I can impprove? Nothing. No seriously. I AM serious. You're still learning and improving at an alarming rate. I can't ask for more than that. Patience? You have plenty of that. I was going to say 'love you're body more' but you're even doing better at that. Relax. You're doing fine.
Do you have a favorite way to communicate? Like this. (telepathically) But meditation and dreams are nice too.
What attracted you to working with humans. I needed someone with great power to further achieve my goals. I found you and yeah, you're apparently crazy powerful... but now you're family and mean a lot to me so.... my goals are kinda...(*insert noncommittal noise of "????" here.)
What is the best way to draw spirits to you? No. No more spirits. Dude, it's just you and a friends Spirit that doesn't even live with us. No more. I want to make friends~! 8DD They can't live here. You know that's not what I was asking anyway right? I was asking for others who want to attract spirits. oh.....uh.......... Being stupid is a great way, but dangerous. Also exercising any spiritual ability or sense. You're energy is like a star in the sky, the more you practice "magic" or flex you're senses, the brighter that star gets. The more attention you'll grab, good AND bad. Defense barriers aren't enough, make an invisibility layer too. Only allow spirits in AFTER you've talked to and gotten to know them.
How did you find me? I found you by chance, it was kinda odd. ????? How so? Uh, I don't know how to explain it? I was just drawn to you. You were just some twerp with nightmares that needed some help and relief from them. You kinda noticed me soon after and were just, OKAY? with it??? Like, (mimicking me) 'Yeah, hey Mr. Demon! What's up? Oh you're feeding off my dreams?? Okie dokie~ Have at it~!!' Like who the fuck does that Christina???! (I'm just laughing cause it's all true.)
Why'd you stick around? Cause you're nice and respectful, you always ask me if it's okay you do something that involves me. You make sure I'm not trapped in a situation or contract. That I always have an out. And you're good company. Excellent company. You're also really sweet and funny and...(he starts to get gushy so I cut him off.) HEY.
What qualities do you value most in a friend? Someone who can take a joke! I can't stand it when people just can't relax. Go with the flow. Relax. Have fun. Appreciate the people you have around you, whether you know them or not. Someone who can understand others, both good and bad emotions. Someone caring and patient.
What is you're favorite cartoon? Wander Over Yonder. AWWWWWWWWWWW!! Shut up~ I also like Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. But that's not a cartoon. You need to get that movie. Hahaha I know I know, I need money first. We need it. OMG chill! XDD
Do you have anything you like bonding over? Uh.... I don't normally talk to humans??? You're kind of an anomaly. Then what do you bond over with other spirits. Bad humor. PFFFT What?! Bad jokes? Seriously we're kinda lame. (me literally dying with laughter.) OMG You're PERFECT.
How long have you been working with me? Oh come'on, you know this! Since you were like 13. (So since 2006)
How long have you been alive for? A LONG time. Do you even count anymore? (sarcastically) Count? By what standard? Human time? Demon time? Time and span of the universe itself??? Ain't no one got time for that!! Did you just MEME me?! (Muffled laughter from SD.)
What's it like being a Spirit? Enchanting at times. (I suddenly get all these alien landscapes at sunset and vast beautiful sceneries.) You can go anywhere. And I mean ANYWHERE, in all of realities and space. You can go into dreams and space. THEN WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE OF ALL PLACES!!!!! (SD laughing) Because you're here. BEFORE THAT!! I was visiting a friend. Then I ran into you and I just keep returning. My friends are giving me a hard time. They never thought I'd settle down for anything. REALLY? Yeah.
How to better respect you and other spirits? (for readers) Ask us for our opinions frequently and actually take our answers into consideration. If you disagree with us on something. Explain WHY. Make sure we know where you're coming from. We often forget the social limitations of humans and that you need to go to school and work and need to make money to buy food and shelter to live. This goes Triple for higher up spirits and leaders. If they expect something of you that isn't realistic to you're schedule, TELL THEM. The worst thing you can do is try to make a spirit friend and have it fall apart over something like not spending enough time with them cause you need money to live.
Any additional advice to anyone reading this? Be kind. Be patient. Be wary. I don't want any of you to get hurt because you're too eager to make a friend. Treat Spirits like strangers on the street. Be polite at all times, even if they're revealed to be selfish. Christina (me) has shown me that even the ones who want to use you can calm down if you're polite and show them that you truly want to understand their motives. Even if you disagree with their reasons for trickery or revenge. I still don't know how she did that. I just talked to them? Anger has to come from SOMEWHERE right? Being mean and dismissive to ANYONE who's angry at the world is a BAD idea. They NEED someone to at least listen to them. They're still dangerous. Angry people often are.
Have you worked with anyone before? You also know this one but... no I haven't.
What's you're take on humanity? Humanity is weird. How so? Individually you're all different but society make you all live the same.
Would you like to say goodbye to the readers? Yeah. Yo, goodbye. See ya later... not really. I don't know any of you soooo... chow.

Two weeks. They did not see each other for two weeks and that's one of the rare short waiting times.
The place is filled with happy people with no single one resting; Fansites take pictures, Bangtan talks about random things, the staffs go back and forth, everyone is delighted for the fansign prior to the beloved boy group's comeback.
A red mantled table sat in front of the crowd. The members on the side where their goofy faces are exposed, and indeed everyone's loving it. All of the boys are waving, smiling, doing silly things... but there's this one who kept on biting his lips and hiding his smile that you'd think he just heard a joke from himself. Different from the others, he shines brighter than usual. It isn't just his complexion this time, it's his overall mood. That too, is very rare.
Miracle kneeled in front of Yoongi who's first in line. This is how every fansign went: You wait until your turn, you lower yourself, then you make the most out of the limited time. Miracle is so used to this, but right now her stomach feels to have successfully tied itself into a knot. It's like she's doing a mischief you long planned, the feeling is tinged with the caution of not getting caught, and it's delighting her.
Min Yoongi, his ever so attractive boyfriend, didn't look at her. He was busy flipping and fancying the album to be signed, and it made Miracle want to hold his face and make him face her. Their stubborn attitude shall not win this time, however. She resisted with all her energy because she just can't go and touch Yoongi; She'll get kicked out of the venue and it'll limit her time with this man. The girl forcefully settled with talking, taking a mental note of doing the touchy interaction some other time.
"Good evening Suga..." She sarcastically greeted with a sweet smile and a sweet voice.
"How are you?" He politely asked as he opened the album on where he should, only to be flustered so much that he dropped his head to hide his grin.
"Are you fine Suga?" Miracle teased.
Sticky notes are written with questions for them to answer. No much revelations, he suddenly got reminded of what their manager said. But how?, Yoongi asked himself. The questions are plastered on the page where they will sign, and despite the several times Yoongi mistakenly signed on other member's pages, he just knows that this is for him.
'When are you going back to my home without notice?' was the question she wrote on the first note. 'When are we gonna go to that place again and maybe take another picture?' on the second...
Yoongi can feel his grin is turning wider and wider...
"Ahh... seriously..." Min Yoongi scratched his eyebrows before he gripped the marker. You'll just see me crawling on your bed... Are you talking about the kiss? With a flash due to the flattery of his own words, he closed the album and handed it to her without even looking.
"I have something for you." She said again. Yoongi didn't want to look so the girl rudely shoved a makeshift book in front of him. Yoongi didn't mind, he knows she's just trying to get her attention and he can't give in. Still not giving in, he examined the gift. It was a simple small one... almost fifty pages as he guessed it. It was like a pocketbook with a plain black cover. He was thinking so hard if he asked her to grab him some book... but he can't recall doing that.
Then the next thing is he was blinking a lot as realization dawned on him.
"I made poems, too." Miracle informed. "I'm not good but I hope you'll like it."
Who are you kidding? Of course I'll like this. He wanted to say on impulse but as he lifted his head and looked at her, words seemed to have vanished into a dark void again. Her hair is still black and long, her smile is still beautiful, her eyes are still happy, and she is surely still one of his favorite views.
His heart easily flew.
"Your beanie is cute." He said as he casted an adoring look to the white beanie she was wearing. The thing was plainly embroidered with a black thread on a never-ending loop of infinity... He quickly glanced at her hands. Miracle was even wearing the ring he gave!
"Thanks, my boyfriend gave it." A loud pump came from his heart. "Left it in my apartment, actually."
Yoongi proudly nodded as if complimenting himself. "He's a sneaky boyfriend?"
"Yes he is! And I love him so much."
"I love you so much, too." Yoongi answered with a smile.
Miracle's eyes widened as her face blushed. It didn't even sound like a joke, and his satoori made it hard to answer back. Yoongi really knows how to get his way to her. They both just shared a little snigger as they adored each other's eyes.
The funny silence between the two ate the remaining time in an instant and Miracle moved to the next member without even replying. She was quiet the whole fansign, just casually greeting and introducing the boys the gifts she bought for them, not even exerting an effort to make a conversation. Though she's afraid she might giggle out of nowhere just because the words that Yoongi said sat on her mind, she doesn't want to erase what she last heard. He is indeed sneaky... he indeed loves her... he's the best she's had...
"Ah here comes my favorite noona!" Jimin, who's the last to sign, greeted.
Miracle's eyes widened a little. She knows Jimin is sweet but it's weird to hear somehting like that, still. "I bet you tell that line to all of us."
"Except for the youngsters." The artist suddenly decided to wink and if it wasn't for Yoongi, Miracle might have just melted.
"Aw yeah that charisma!" Miracle almost hit the table because of much excitement but she maintained her posture. "I hope you're not hiding your tiredness with it though."
"I'm still like this in our dorm!"
"You're winking at whom?"
"At our dogs!"
Miracle gave him a blank face. "What..."
"We're still like this in private, noona. Don't think otherwise." Jimin casually said.
As if a flashflood brought everything to her mind again, Miracle was drained once more because of a Bangtan member. She remembered the day she, a fan, legally made it inside their house... illegally. She remembered the melody flowing through her mind, Yoongi's hands... the time they spent together. It was a crashing of moments they had because of a simple sentence from Jimin. Miracle chuckled.
"Why are you laughing?" He asked. "You want to come to our dorm sometime and see?"
"Will you let me in?" She carefully said as she thought about what he said. It's like they translate to something—a thousand questions... and that quickly bothered her.
"I can't take that risk."
"You're naughty."
"No, you are!"
"I have something for you!" She diverted the topic as the fear of knowing answers came. She might just get something she doesn't want to know. Smiling, Miracle gave Jimin a small penguin keychain. "I really don't know what to give but here..."
"Oh... Thanks anyway." Jimin doesn't even sound disappointed. He wore the keychain like a ring and quietly answered the sticky notes. Soon enough, they were ending with formalities but before letting her go, Jimin held Miracle's hand.
"Gijeok noona," His eyes were a mixture of worry and joy. "I don't want to meddle but... I care about you guys too."
"Uh... What do you mean?"
"Hyung loves you but you know this is not a dream."
Her mouth opened in both surprise for the words, and the situation itself. "Yeah..." A sly smile formed on her lips. Jimin gave her hand a last tap and she proceeded to taking her seat back.
At the end of the fansign, Bangtan gathered in front of the stage and did a little talk and posed for some pictures. Miracle was sitting quite far but she can figure out that Yoongi is trying to look at her, trying to establish an eye contact but kept on getting disturbed by the other members. At some point, he managed to wave and point at the top of his head. Just so it won't bother him, she waved back. He smiled but that, Miracle can't return, and she can't even try. She knows Yoongi can't clearly see but she can't even try rejoice and feel all the giddiness.
This is not a dream.
And there's an vicious side to that.
The day was long, but he's feeling good. They did music again, performed for the people who loves them, and to top it all he saw his girlfriend today. Tiring to the bones, but good.
They still have a schedule to fulfill for the last two hours of the day so Bangtan went straight to their practice room after the fansign. It's a normal schedule for them since they are having their promotions and Yoongi didn't mind it that much. They just basically practiced their vocals, and danced a little, but the time their managers went out to buy food, they all dropped on the floor, all of them trying to rest by the bright lights and music.
Hoseok and Jimin, together with Jungkook, are watching a new dance choreography... while basically creating a ruckus. Namjoon and Jin are trying to take an update for Kim Daily, and on one corner sits Yoongi, enamored with his phone for the nth time.
"Hyung did you see the girl with the long black hair and white beanie?" Taehyung, who just left the three noisy people, sat beside him. He was holding a bottle of mineral water and offered his hyung some, but Yoongi politely declined. Yoongi didn't complain about the sudden approach, he knows that they're all tired and it's not wrong to find a company however quiet you two will be.
"There's a lot." Yoongi's lips curved a little as Miracle came to his mind.
"The one who gave you a book."
"Yeah, why?"
"She's been coming to support us since 2013 right!"
"Yeah."
"She was brighter at today's fansign than before!" Yoongi nodded. "And she's cute with the beanie."
Yoongi nodded again.
"I think I like her!"
"What?!" Yoongi's grip on his phone got a little tighter, and before he knew it his eyes are slowly getting wider and his breath stopped for a moment.
"Ah wait I think I saw a similar beanie but in black color... where did I... Ah in your room! Is that yours?"
He calmed himself. That is normal, he convinced himself. "Mine."
"Can I have it?"
"No!" The reaction came again, and this time he glared at the innocently-eyed Taehyung.
"But... okay." Taehyung sheepishly said, making Yoongi shrink with a little guilt. "I really think I'm liking Gijeok noona. Ah! She's Gijeok! Noona with a cute beanie."
"Mine."
"Yours?"
"The beanie is mine." Yoongi irritably said. He started scrolling on his phone again though he doesn't read any of what he sees.
"Ah... hyung you already answered to that." Taehyung drank from his drink for a pause and continued speaking. "So I was saying, that noona is really kind and happy all the time... I want—"
"What?!"
"Why do you sound so displeased! I just want to see her again tomorrow!" Taehyung complained and again, made Yoongi feel another pang of guilt.
"Go on."
"Maybe somewhere out there is writing a story about an idol who fantasized a fan—a love story."
"Your point is?"
"I wanna act that out with her."
"Mine."
"You're gonna act? You want to act? Haha hyung what a joke. You're gonna make the story too boring! You'll just lay around on the set, on and off cam—"
"I said FINE." Yoongi pressed, ignoring that Taehyung just called him a joke.
"—With a rating of 0.5—"
"Go away."
"It'll be a flop."
"I'm gonna kill you."
Taehyung sniggered at him like he's satisfied to annoy this little guy and from what Yoongi sees, he's sure that Taehyung is hinting on something. They argued a little about acting but it was nothing to Yoongi. He was kind of glad that they changed the topic. Few minutes later, their managers found them slacking which later resulted to scolding while telling them to eat.
They had a casual meal with all the people present in the practice room. The area was loud and happy, and Yoongi didn't bother adding up to the craziness produced by the same guys who kill the stage.
When the members suddenly dragged the bullying part to the shoulder hyung, Yoongi parted from the group because of loss of interest. He walked towards his usual place again, but their manager came up to him discreetly and asked to talk to him. It wasn't unusual at first, but as they walk together Yoongi can feel that this is a serious matter.
"I want to hear it from you." Sejin said soon as they were distant from the group.
"Hear what."
"Hidden... relationship?"
From the looks of it, Yoongi got what he was implying. No words said, but he knows that this is it. This is the time that he can't hide the thing about him and Miracle anymore.
"Why?" He asked with cold hands. He doesn't know why he suddenly got nervous but still he talked as normal as he could.
"You know I'm not gonna allow that."
"And if I don't follow what you want?" Yoongi immediately established a firm stand.
"Yoongi don't take the situation too far."
"I already did when I started what we have."
Sejin was immediately lost for words though they've just began talking. He knows that this would be quick considering that he's talking to the member who least interacts, but he didn't see those words coming. He wanted to say a lot of things, words of wisdom even, but he's been with Yoongi long enough to know he can't argue with this kid. Sure enough, Yoongi knows how to answer well... both in a polite and impolite way.
Sejin adjusted his eyeglasses and tried not to fixate his gaze on Yoongi. "I'm not going to argue about it, but you know I will do something if you will not fix this."
"Hyung, nothing is broken."
"Nothing is broken yet... but what if—"
"What if not?"
A cold wind passed through the space between them. The silence began to form as they looked at each other, both sides wanting a recognition for their own concerns.
"Does... he know?" Yoongi asked.
"Bang PD?" The artist nodded as he dropped his head. Sejin inhaled a large amount as if to heal the words to come out. "He'll know."
"Then I'm gonna do something about it on the time that he will."
"Min Yoongi don't be stubborn on this."
"But I can't let her go."
Sejin was both impressed and scared of the emotion Yoongi have just shown. He didn't expect this, certainly not. "This is not an ideal situation. You know all the costs of it."
"She's non-showbiz so why would we have a fucked up exposed relationship if ever?!"
"You know where you are right now... You know that you and your group's place right now isn't the bottom and you know you can't just tell them you have—"
"I'm not just going to, hyung." Yoongi looked too apologetically for Sejin's taking that all the manager could do was to sigh. That's a first.
"Your members don't know about this, right?" Sejin asked as he looked over the commotion forming. For a moment, he really thought Jimin snitched him but his trust with his friend is way further than that.
Yoongi sighed. "Jimin knows. It bothers him."
"You know that Jimin cares the most."
"I care about them too, hyung."
"Do you?"
"But I love her, too. You're all important to me."
"Well, if that's the case..." Sejin heaved another sigh. "Then we'll see what we can do about you and her." Sejin gave him a tiny smile and a tap on his shoulder before announcing it was already time to go back to the dorm.
It was a vague assurance but Yoongi can't help but take it.
Upon arriving at their dorm, Yoongi didn't bother doing anything and went straight to his recording room. There, he put what he received on his collection rack, and dropped himself on the gray leather sofa just to comfortably put his phone out. His fingers found the tracks to Miracle's number and called her like it's a pattern of tasks. Eventually, he's closing his eyes, wanting to get some sleep, but he wants to talk to his girl even more.
Miracle's the only one he wants to hear to right now. Even thinking about talking to her makes him feel lighter. He wants to tell her the things that happened today, bar the talk with Sejin knowing that would surely worry her out. He just wants to talk to her—she's his silence, after all. She's the solace he wants after hearing the noisy world.
"Good evening." He casually greeted when Miracle answered the call.
"Hi."
Oh.
"Something in mind?" He shifted his position and elevated himself on the armrest. He's considering about sleeping here tonight since he planned on talking to her as much as he could. And ever so persuasive because he knows just when this girl feels bad.
Boyfriend mode.
"Yep."
"What's it?"
"Did you tell Jimin?"
"Told him what?"
"About us."
Yoongi's eyebrows furrowed in sudden confusion. He didn't expect this kind of talk but he could clearly hear that Miracle is bothered. That bothered him as well and to hopefully find a solution, he quickly recalled all possible events that may have caused it, and when he knew what that was, he spoke with care.
"I didn't. He saw us when you were... listening to my composition."
"You didn't lock the door?"
"I—" Yoongi obviously ran out of words to say. "I'm sorry, okay?"
"But he already knows."
"Yeah." I was about to kiss you that time, of course it's obvious.
"And we are...?"
"Currently having a midnight talk."
"Yoongi let's talk about this." Miracle insisted with a little complaint.
"Why?"
"It's not like I know everything. You're hiding things that are just recently trying to stress me out."
"What things?"
"Like the fact that Jimin knows! He talked to me at the fansign..." Miracle trailed off. "What do I know, really?"
"You're mad because I didn't tell you."
"Of course! What else do I do not know? Seriously Yoongi it's making me uneasy to even think that you're hiding something."
"Well maybe that's just your guilt for doing so."
The two went silent for a while, the man immediately wished he didn't speak. "I'm not hiding anything."
And he didn't mean it even if it hurts. And he hated that she lied.
"Then who's the guy?" His stomach twisted and his heart sank.
"Oh Yoongi..."
"You know who I am talking about."
Yoongi tried his best to control his emotion. It was just all of a sudden. He wanted to explain that he's just tired, that he just had a tiring talk with their manager, and had a tired mind and body, and he just wants to rest. He knows it was wrong to open it up.
But the words are already said, a part of him was screaming in desire to know the answer. Even if he wants to clear the mess that have just started before it gets worse, Yoongi also wants clarification. He wants to know why does she hide that guy; he wants to know who exactly is that—what is his part in Miracle's life. And why... why is this happening. This desire, he didn't know. He thought he initially didn't care but he does, he does bigtime, and it hurts him the same way.
He just realized he's also tired of making himself stand strong behind their issues.
Yoongi swiftly made himself up and paced back and forth, still trying to keep it all in. He knows he can easily drop this but the question needed to be answered now.
"Is he the reason why you browsed through my things?"
He stopped as he looked for the right words. "Partly."
"Don't involve yourself with it." Miracle said as if dissatisfied to what they're talking about.
"Don't?" The words rang through the guy's ears, waking up every emotion this has ever known. "Give me an exact reason why I shouldn't, Miracle."
"I'm trying to protect you too!"
"Because you had something with him? You're trying to conceal your past with him, am I right?"
"... that's not the point—"
"You are! And you know it. Didn't it ever occur to you that I might just approach him backstage and ask? Instead you concealed a lot of things." Yoongi closed his eyes again to drain the emotions but he just felt them better. "You chose to hide it." He said, obviously exhausted. "Oh, I forgot to ask, is it him or me that you are trying to hide?
"Yoongi can't you see!? It's hard to tell you about... about everything!" He heard her voice crack.
"That's exactly why I can't just open up things to you!"
"I'm your girlfriend, Yoongi."
"But I guess it's hard to admit to him that I'm your boyfriend.", but he didn't stop telling her the things he long kept.
"I was just trying not to harm you...", and all of a sudden, tears we're audible.
"You still did."
"I can't..." She sobbed. "I can't do this." Miracle dropped the line.
He regretted it.
Yoongi's eyes started to well with remorse. His phone dropped to his side but he didn't notice. He's too hurt to do so; He's too hurt to even move.
"Great, I thought I don't care." His discomfort went extreme and he almost wanted to throw things but the pain inside is beyond what he imagined. He knew that eventually, their relationship will get tricky to hide, tricky to continue, and tricky to even be made still.
Yoongi knew was just fooling himself when he admitted that he doesn't care whoever the guy is... that he doesn't care even if it's another artist he once performed with... or anything. He convinced himself well enough that he just cares about his relationship with Miracle and about what he already has... but the pain extended through oceans and mountains, and went straight to his heart. He's afraid, bothered and hurting, all at the same time. Now he's thinking if he's fighting for nothing.
The guy brushed his hair upwards and tried to get a grip. A part of him wants to meet Miracle and fix things. He can still make this night okay, he knows. It is just the pain that prevents him from doing so. Yoongi doesn't consciously notice, but he was just staring at the floor, drained from everything, not wanting to move... wanting to heal but doesn't know what to do.
His eyes went lurking and landed on the notebook that Miracle gave. When he received that, he was utterly excited to read it all, but now he can't even try. A sigh came out from his sad lips.
"Let's give it a rest." He said as he turned around to face his computer. "I need to give this a rest."
