I look up from my phone as I hear the fridge open, I assume it’s my brother. But to my shocked I see Bonnie’s twin. He is holding a packet of strawberries and eating them 281Please respect copyright.PENANAUaiklYjocz
281Please respect copyright.PENANABjLQiuFBfm
“Hi!” He waves as I also take one strawberry and eat it. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAojlBdyJQ2y
281Please respect copyright.PENANAlDkZBPGl5e
I stand up. I see that he jumps a little. 281Please respect copyright.PENANA7HJOFA09DS
281Please respect copyright.PENANAtGkbmOWJ2e
“I’m sorry.” He apologises “It’s okay. I also like strawberries.” I softly say taking another and eats it. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAFxaNKyeBec
281Please respect copyright.PENANA6231AMTCPp
“Oh.” He says as I see his whole body relax a bit. “Berry Berry” I giggle eating the strawberries. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAYgBt84SLNb
281Please respect copyright.PENANAmDo4xmLaVW
He nods, agreeing, eating another one. “He’s rarely at home so let’s finish this up and I can buy him another one.” I said to Ryan 281Please respect copyright.PENANAmX57Ys7Keq
281Please respect copyright.PENANABVDYOHBcws
Just as I say that my brother walks in. “Hi.” Ryan says with his mouth full of the berries. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAC2dQ3DfyFE
281Please respect copyright.PENANAQJNlRwqj7A
“Erm-can somebody tell me what’s going on now?” My brother asked as I just cutely dropped the strawberries back to where it came from 281Please respect copyright.PENANAAopH8SVPY7
281Please respect copyright.PENANAsCxIDCcbow
Ryan just hands the whole container to me. “Strawberry stealing?” My brother asks again. Ryan nods, my brother just laughs. I just look at them as my brother laughed.281Please respect copyright.PENANAt8LHT0Rcrs
281Please respect copyright.PENANAVlmw13XUZ7
“Enjoy them you two.” He tells us. I then put down the container and pull my brother’s hand a little. “Join us eating them please~” I softly said which got my brother laughing again 281Please respect copyright.PENANAU9Pww4uyy5
281Please respect copyright.PENANAm8XAdNFaxX
He join in. “First real life experience of you two siblings eating in front of me” Ryan giggles eating the strawberries 281Please respect copyright.PENANAesfm4sSuOf
281Please respect copyright.PENANAQmG5Z0F4m2
We both softly giggle. “So how long you know my brother Ryan?” I then asked Ryan directly. Just a bit curious since it seem he knows my brother for a long time 281Please respect copyright.PENANA9oqwQ71I3m
281Please respect copyright.PENANAWvfJemQsrM
“We went to the same school, we become friends during a school project.” Ryan quietly says. “No wonder my brother smile so much then. Thank you.” I thanked Ryan giggling that got Jungkook blushing 281Please respect copyright.PENANAKaFUXjkLap

“I should be the one saying thank you.” Ryan admits. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAIEzHUpTLyV
281Please respect copyright.PENANAb1IxZXm9mE
I looked at Ryan confused. “So, during both of our times at school we were both trainees at the company. At school this one kid just didn’t like Ryan. Told lies about him, put coconut in his drink, and beat him up once. I am and was at the time Ryan’s only friend.” Jungkook explains 281Please respect copyright.PENANAFUkmpAnUnx
281Please respect copyright.PENANAuXM0sbQUxY
“That’s worse than mine.” I can’t help hugging Ryan much to my brother’s shock. That’s be about the eighth man in my life I ever give a hug 281Please respect copyright.PENANAMd4GJQAR9j
281Please respect copyright.PENANAoIOYMYwkki

“His family issues during 2018... His dad that married into the family isn’t a nice person. He hit and threatened Ryan, Bonnie, Donna, And their mother. He forced Ryan to change his korean name and enroll in a extremely hard course. He stayed with the guys bio son who had watch over him all the time.” My brother explained.281Please respect copyright.PENANAwbfghP1xUw

“That’s so mean” I pouted sadly upon hearing what happened 281Please respect copyright.PENANATKYx9kcOsm

“The bio son did tell us that the guy is in South Korea currently. But we just don’t know where. So the Gyu siblings and family is just staying on a down low.” He adds on. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAQJu1dBHT4O
281Please respect copyright.PENANAceVI65KpBH

281Please respect copyright.PENANAfhDMEVt8h4

281Please respect copyright.PENANAGZW3vgydyU
“What if I want to?” I jokingly ask and he glares at me not to. “Alright. I will not engage in a fight.” I promised. “Good” He says. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAHjH0zRz5UP
281Please respect copyright.PENANAejjnO80vuV
“How about we check on Ryan now?” I suggests. He nods, we go right to jungkook’s room, we quietly go in to see a made up bed on the floor, he is asleep. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAcqaetDauFK
281Please respect copyright.PENANAl3s4PLe1Tf
“Let’s cook him a good meal tomorrow.” My brother suggests and I nodded my head agreeing 281Please respect copyright.PENANABusi6NhKHt
281Please respect copyright.PENANAVtbNGg12m2
“What’s his favourite meal?” I ask my brother as he quietly shuts the door. He then uses his phone and gives me the recipe281Please respect copyright.PENANAHTvom1vCkY

281Please respect copyright.PENANAFsgG5h0AUK
‘Is he sleep walking?’ I ask myself, I go to get my brother who is a bit difficult to wake up but he does. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAbnUfOeptCZ
281Please respect copyright.PENANAf71Tox2bhR
“Chanyi-ah.” He says coming out. He only responds with a mumble. “Go to the toilet and go back to bed.” My brother says, to my shock he listens and does so. “Just a sleep walking episode.” My brother tells me 281Please respect copyright.PENANA7wOF2FlNDJ
281Please respect copyright.PENANAvYpn8b4tk7
“Oh” I nodded my head understanding what’s going on now. “You need help with the hand and cheese?” He asks me and I nodded my head 281Please respect copyright.PENANAJSHSRiz3zb
281Please respect copyright.PENANAeFh9HSuYSv
“But let me check if he made it to bed first.” He says going and checking. He comes back five minutes later. 281Please respect copyright.PENANA2OqvU2D0yD
281Please respect copyright.PENANAgr7SKoiG78

281Please respect copyright.PENANAnX2hmkmpBY
He cuts up the cheese while I go through this fridge to find the ham...which is placed at the very back. 281Please respect copyright.PENANA0s9k3WCbKR
281Please respect copyright.PENANAqbFlCPfRvS
Luckily my hands are thin enough to grab the food. I walked up to the kitchen and cut the ham. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAx61vkZcz0b
281Please respect copyright.PENANAjkLmUfVNSy
“So found the Mr Mysterious yet?” He asks me which make me remember the flowers I’ve been getting. I shook my head 281Please respect copyright.PENANAqIdCeyET9D
281Please respect copyright.PENANAvy8BlSmivb
“No not yet. I wonder who it is though.” I say. “It’s been a year or so, and the flowers have no known return address.” I softly tell him 281Please respect copyright.PENANAMWrYaySlE0
281Please respect copyright.PENANAGUSOB00riB
“And I’m sure it’s not Ryan or anyone in your group.” I say. “That’s weird but I can help you keep a lookout.” He reassures me 281Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6u341f4kX
281Please respect copyright.PENANAOPxTB8Vm39
“That would be nice.” I say. We soon manage to finish up the ham and cheese sandwich for Ryan “Do we wake him or let him wake up?” I ask my brother. “Let him wake up on his own.” He says. After ten minutes Ryan does wake up. 281Please respect copyright.PENANAGcyWJtnsx1
281Please respect copyright.PENANAZhraQw4GcN
“I slept walked didn’t I?” He Asks us both, Jungkook nods. “Yup.” He says. “I’m sorry about that” Ryan apologises “No, it’s perfectly normal.” I say. While giving him his sandwich to eat, my brother is pestering me to take the food to lunch at the cafe.281Please respect copyright.PENANAx0fvrjkO1x
281Please respect copyright.PENANAtbi5J2Vf6g
“No.” I refused. “No skipping meals.” He puts the sandwich on my hand firmly. “Fine.” I say. “Thank you.” Ryan says. “No worries.” I smiled before I went to get ready for work. 281Please respect copyright.PENANA01YdJvB62K
