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 248Please respect copyright.PENANADtH8CJ9HEo
248Please respect copyright.PENANACyU7L6vRSR
“Hi!” He waves as I also take one strawberry and eat it. 248Please respect copyright.PENANA3B9vTCAH4C
248Please respect copyright.PENANAAVlSXa4unH
I stand up. I see that he jumps a little. 248Please respect copyright.PENANACwjZdHJ0iy
248Please respect copyright.PENANASeVA5WhFD8
“I’m sorry.” He apologises “It’s okay. I also like strawberries.” I softly say taking another and eats it. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAdDSacCHgW7
248Please respect copyright.PENANATtzZfImwxr
“Oh.” He says as I see his whole body relax a bit. “Berry Berry” I giggle eating the strawberries. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAUsBap3kW6G
248Please respect copyright.PENANAMTGJ3SI1bn
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 248Please respect copyright.PENANAprpq3w9fz4
248Please respect copyright.PENANA1QGPaeVRp0
Just as I say that my brother walks in. “Hi.” Ryan says with his mouth full of the berries. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAOTy611S81X
248Please respect copyright.PENANACvKwJRGgCc
“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 248Please respect copyright.PENANAbsEm5IwhKY
248Please respect copyright.PENANADuEGH2lvrD
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.248Please respect copyright.PENANAK3vmsDNeWW
248Please respect copyright.PENANAZrtkcBpFCs
“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 248Please respect copyright.PENANAfxgsHkUoU9
248Please respect copyright.PENANAzKKqU6bDGT
He join in. “First real life experience of you two siblings eating in front of me” Ryan giggles eating the strawberries 248Please respect copyright.PENANAAIMhj36Qwm
248Please respect copyright.PENANAd6Qw3qKCxT
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 248Please respect copyright.PENANA7RPA9OxU2Q
248Please respect copyright.PENANAT68TAAG5qs
“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 248Please respect copyright.PENANAEMQyvzEp1Z

“I should be the one saying thank you.” Ryan admits. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAWEIwtfHzIb
248Please respect copyright.PENANAKxUn9FCUJG
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 248Please respect copyright.PENANAEZzI4T8oTe
248Please respect copyright.PENANAByVRtuCVSd
“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 248Please respect copyright.PENANAM5z5zl9MEm
248Please respect copyright.PENANAyQuLcjPnlG

“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.248Please respect copyright.PENANAz2iZpdFFCL

“That’s so mean” I pouted sadly upon hearing what happened 248Please respect copyright.PENANACXHwYcXY1A

“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. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAE4e6K5co4p

248Please respect copyright.PENANApYq8Kw0lml
“I will call the police.” I smile promising him. “But don’t engage in any fights.” He reminds me as always. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAotwmObtCPp
248Please respect copyright.PENANAZP73riyyRM
“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. 248Please respect copyright.PENANASO4ePf8Mhn
248Please respect copyright.PENANAkBajW8tK7g
“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. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAATAS9KbpLt
248Please respect copyright.PENANAu2ZOFvFtBb
“Let’s cook him a good meal tomorrow.” My brother suggests and I nodded my head agreeing 248Please respect copyright.PENANAuLydsu1Y2O
248Please respect copyright.PENANAxcTynwQZdj
“What’s his favourite meal?” I ask my brother as he quietly shuts the door. He then uses his phone and gives me the recipe248Please respect copyright.PENANAMVIb9al2Js

248Please respect copyright.PENANApSTpsGM83Q
‘Is he sleep walking?’ I ask myself, I go to get my brother who is a bit difficult to wake up but he does. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAkuukkWqx2c
248Please respect copyright.PENANAarSokWiY1J
“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 248Please respect copyright.PENANATXe6bJylpH
248Please respect copyright.PENANAHfj5EmiJui
“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 248Please respect copyright.PENANAyVSoeQxR5q
248Please respect copyright.PENANAi8xKZq7Qq2
“But let me check if he made it to bed first.” He says going and checking. He comes back five minutes later. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAWXrnO3uQgR

He cuts up the cheese while I go through this fridge to find the ham...which is placed at the very back. 248Please respect copyright.PENANACbvVzVqYE8
248Please respect copyright.PENANAEcQqZel48b
Luckily my hands are thin enough to grab the food. I walked up to the kitchen and cut the ham. 248Please respect copyright.PENANA5qkkIQWic5
248Please respect copyright.PENANA7ss6rAULpp
“So found the Mr Mysterious yet?” He asks me which make me remember the flowers I’ve been getting. I shook my head 248Please respect copyright.PENANAPJgNfR4CWD
248Please respect copyright.PENANAb94YCXylgh
“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 248Please respect copyright.PENANAvObgTltpZO
248Please respect copyright.PENANAVkaVY7BklJ
“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 248Please respect copyright.PENANADcVpGl2rJU
248Please respect copyright.PENANApBz1gHB5qG
“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. 248Please respect copyright.PENANA3XCrfPObaU
248Please respect copyright.PENANATboRcX4Iof
“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.248Please respect copyright.PENANA7o7YDzdpSn
248Please respect copyright.PENANAy44cb8vd05
“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. 248Please respect copyright.PENANAs3bYlDohcu
