"Good morningNamjoon said planting kisses on my cheek.
I took a sip of my tea and looked at him. He sat across from me and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Good morning, someone is in a good mood." I said.
"Yeah, I am we're here for a couple more days and the trip to Bora Bora is coming close." He said.
I smiled as my phone began to ring, it was Jin-Soo.
"Hello." I said.
"Hey, um have you seen the news?" She asked.
"No I'm in Italy Jin." I said laughing.
"Well uh, you know that building that you found your dad staying in?" She asked.
"What about it?" I asked.
"It was a fire, everyone made it out safely but I went to the scene and I ran into your dad." She said.
I sat my tea down and pinched the bridge of my nose. Namjoon looked at me with a questionable look.
"And?" I asked.
"He wants to see you." She said.
"Hell no." I said.
"Precious, he look sincere." She said.
"I don't give a damn what he looked like, his place got burnt and now he wants to see me wonder how much money he needs." I said rolling my eyes.
"Precious." She said.
I sigh.
"Did he leave you with anything to reach him?" I asked.
"He just said to call him as soon as possible he has a new phone." She said.
"I'll think about it, no promises right now." I said.
"Ok, we will talk later." She said hanging up.
I placed my phone on the table and continued drinking my tea.
"What happen?" Namjoon asked.
I began explaining what was said over the phone and he sat back and thought for a second.
"I think you should call." He said.
I grabbed my tea and walked outside. I'm starting to feel like no one understands where I'm coming from. I sat down and a few minutes later seen Namjoon come and sit beside me.
"What did I do?" He asked.
I sighed and stood up, he grabbed my arm and sat me back down.
"What?" I asked.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"Everything from my dad and to everyone not getting it." I said.
"Getting what?" He asked.
"ME!" I yelled.
"How? I'm your boyfriend for Christ sakes." He said.
"Exactly, and Jin-Soo is my best friend, MY FATHER SLAPPED THE SHIT OUT OF ME JUST A MONTH AGO! Now everyone wants me to fucking do this do that. I'm not anyones puppet." I said.
He looked at me and sigh.
"No one is saying that you are, we just want what's best for you." He said.
"Oh my god I'm not a child, what I need is for everyone to stop treating me like I'm disabled." I said.

He looked down at his hands before looking back at me.
"I'M NOT DISABLED! I'M DEPRESSED! I WAKE UP EVERYDAY PREPARING MYSELF FOR THE WORST! HELL IT'S A STRUGGLE GETTING OUT THE BED EVERY MORNING!" I yelled.
"WHICH IS WHY I'M HERE!" He yelled.
"ARE YOU?" I asked.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN! I PUT EVERYTHING ON THE LINE FOR US!" He yelled.
I sat down as he continued to talk to me.
"I JUST BOUGHT YOU THAT BIG ASS RING! I SHOW YOU I LOVE YOU EVERY FUCKING SECOND OF THE DAMN DAY! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT ME TO FUCKING DO?" He asked.
I didn't even know how to answer I never seen him so upset. I looked down and thought to myself, maybe I shouldn't have yelled at him.
"THAT DAY YOU WERE IN THAT VAN SCREAMING IN PAIN, WAS THE WORST DAY OF MY FUCKING LIFE!" He yelled.
"Namjoon." I said.
"NO YOU NEED TO HEAR THIS, I LOVE YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THIS WORLD! I will not watch you self destruct in my presence." He said wiping my face.
"I'm sorry, I'm just use to taking care of myself and handling things my own way." I said.
He sighed and grabbed my hand.
"I'm sorry for yelling, but baby you need to understand you holding in all that anger is going to get you no where. You're not alone anymore, you have me and the guys." He said.
"I'm just not use to the feeling of this new spotlight and this thing with my dad popped out of no where." I said.
He pulled me to his lap and rubbed my back.
"Don't worry about the spotlight, and as for your dad I will accompany you when you talk to him." He said.
I nodded.
"I'm sorry I yelled, it was rude and I apologize." I said.
He pecked my cheek and smiled at me.
"No matter what tell me what's on your mind whenever something is bothering you." He said.
I nodded and he picked me up and spent me around. I laughed as his phone began to ring.
"Who is it?" I asked.
"It's the chairman." He said answering his phone putting it on speaker.
"Hello, love birds." The chairman said.
"Hello, chairman." We said.
"How are things there?" Namjoon asked.
"Well that's what I was calling for, things are hectic on bighit end." He said.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Well when we official released the statement about you to, everything was ok for a day or two. Then it started making head lines and people are making assumptions and accusations." He said.
Namjoon looked at me and sigh.
"What should we do?" Namjoon asked.
"There's nothing that we can do, just focus on the music and the upcoming tour." He said.

"Ok, thanks sir." Namjoon said hanging up.
Namjoon looked at me and sighed.
"Well I do have an idea." I said.
"And what's that?" He asked.
"My years being a Korean resident has showed me these people will always look at me like I'm something on the bottom of there shoe. I know it's probably going to be worse once we get back, but...it's time for me to be me and say forget them, I have you and that's all I need." I said.
"So what are you saying?" He asked.
"I'm going to be more open with you and with myself, I don't care what anyone has to say at this point." I said.
"What made you want to do this?" He asked.
"It's like you said being angry isn't going to get me anywhere, it's time to realized that I'm black and it's not going to change so I'm going to embrace it." I said.
"I love you." He said.
I smiled and took a sip of my tea.
"I love you to." I said.
"So what about your dad?" He asked.
"I'll call him when I'm back in Korea, just to talk but he's not getting a dime of my money." I said.
"Understandable." He said smiling.
We talked a little more and I decided to make him dinner. I decided to make an American dish, I placed the food in front of him and sat beside him. We began eating and joking around, I loved how we just had a screaming match and can realize our wrongs and talk it out.
"Let's make a tic tok." I said.
"What?" He asked laughing.
"Yes I think we should make a tic tok." I said.
"Why?" He asked.
"Come on." I said dragging his hand.
I played the sound for him and he looked at me.
"Definitely no." He said.
"Come on, all you have to do is put your hands on your head and swing your hips side to side." I explained.
He groaned.
"Ok ok." He said.
I clapped my hands and set the camera up.
"Ok, go." I said.
It took five tries to get it right and once I was satisfied with it I logged back into instagram and posted it. My phone was blowing up with comments from a lot of people hating of course. This time I didn't care, it's time to show people that I don't give a damn about what they say.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"I just posted the video on my instagram." I said.
"You have your comments on?" He asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"Look at you, facing the haters." He said.
I smiled.
"I think I'm going to check my weverse." He said.
"Really?" I asked.
"If you're not caring about opinions then I'm not either." He said patting my head and smiling.
He pulled his phone out and began typing. I watched him scroll through it and began angrily typing.
"Namjoon what did you post?" I asked.
"Nothing." He said placing his phone in his pocket.
He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer.
"What did you do?" I asked smiling.
"Just posted an announcement." He said.
"Do I want to know?" I asked.
"Nope." He said.
I laughed at him.
"Let's go for a walk on the beach." He said.
"Ok, just let me grab my bag." I said.
I went upstairs and grabbed my bag and we biked our way to the beach.
"I can't believe we just had our first argument." He said.
"That comes with relationships." I said.
"Us arguing like that, it kind of made our relationship feel realer to me." He said.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Like I know our relationship is real, but it felt strange how we never had a disagreement." He said.
"Yeah." I said.
Namjoon let me hand go and picked me up spinning me around. I squealed and wrapped my legs around his waist.
"Stop do not try to do what I think your about to do." I said.
He gripped me tighter and ran to the water. I screamed as I felt my head go under, once I came up my hair and my clothes were ruined.
"NAMJOON!" I yelled splashing water at him.
He laughed and wiped his face with his hand. He splashed water back at me and we went back and forth.
"Don't run now." He said as I ran to the sand.
He chased after me and eventually caught me. We fell on the sand laughing up a storm.
"You're so damn goofy." I said.
"Shut up, look at your hair." He said touching my hair.
"Yeah it's ruined thanks to you." I said slapping his arm.
She gasped and pretended to be hurt, I rolled my eyes and laughed.
"What do you want to do for our next two days being here?" He asked.
I thought for a second.
"Hmm, I honestly don't know." I said.
"We'll figure it out, are you ready to head home?" He asked.
I nodded and we got back on our bikes and went home. When we got inside we immediately jumped in the shower. Once we were finished we began watching tv, before dozing off.
