The laundry had dried up with the help of the drier so Jimin got his black cloak from Jungkook already. He wanted to give Jungkook's clothes back but the latter refused, saying he could use it for now.
The moment foods were placed on the dining table, Jimin's mouth agape. He might be forced by Mrs. Jeon to sit with them with her endless whines but he would admit that the food on the table were mouth watering. He had never seen this much food in his life since he usually just eats store-bought foods and instant noodles.
Mrs. Jeon and Jungkook sat after placing the glasses and orange juice on the table. Jungkook sat beside Jimin whilst Mrs. Jeon sat in front of the shy boy. She wasn't stopping all her smiles just by looking at Jungkook's schoolmate.
"Oh boy, please eat up and tell me if it tastes good okay?" She cooed, not moving her eyes from him. Jimin was aware of the stares given to him and he began fiddling with his fingers.
"Mom, would you stop staring at him? He feels uncomfortable." Jungkook spat, starting to get food on his plate when his mom glared to him. He just sighed, accepting that his mom wouldn't even listen to him so why bother.
"Is it true? Do you feel uncomfortable?" She asked softly. Jimin contemplated for a few seconds but he nodded slowly.
"Oh, sorry. I'm just pretty much excited I guess. Jungkook hasn't brought any friend with him and you're the first one."
"Mom!" Jungkook spat, not liking that his mom is exposing his privacy.
"I'm not talking to you just eat." She retorted with a harsher tone as she gets back in staring at Jimin with a gentle look. "Could I ask for your name?"

"I'm P-Park Jimin." He replied, still fiddling with his fingers. Even though he looked very shy, Mrs. Jeon can't help but love his cuteness. Even the way he wears a black cloak doesn't weird her out at all. In fact, she is loving everything about Jimin.
"Even your name is adorable!" She cooed for the second time before she noticed that Jimin isn't starting to eat. "Why aren't you eating? Don't you like the food?" She asked in a sad tone and Jimin hurriedly shook his head.
"N-No Ma'am..." Jimin told. He was just shy to even start.
"Call me Mrs. Jeon, or Aunty if you want." Jungkook sent her another glare but she just ignored it. Again. Like every time.
Jimin made sure to take note of that. He now looked at the food in front of him and licked his lips. He was very happy deep inside since food always makes him really happy. He reached for the fork to get a taste of the curry and as soon as it hit his taste buds, his pupils dilated. His surroundings became unclear and he hurriedly gets every food he could see and eat it then get another one and eat it again. He was just basically shoving every food he sees in his mouth not even minding to chew anymore. He was smiling and just paying attention to what he is eating. He also took note that Mrs. Jeon make really good food.
Jungkook and Mrs. Jeon who were witnessing the scene froze in their spot. They were observing Jimin eating his heart out and they can't believe their eyes. It's like Jimin turned into a hungry pig. The food began to disappear one by one until Jimin felt satisfied and stopped.
But it was too late. He ate all the food on the table.

Jimin's eyes widened when he realized what he just did!
"I'm so sorry! I...I didn't know how..." He lowered his head and bit his lip mentally telling himself how stupid he is.
Mrs. Jeon suddenly burst out in fits of laughter that made Jimin confused.
"It's fine, it's fine, Jungkook and I could just eat ramen for today." She told with such a kind and gentle smile. But Jungkook on the other hand just furrowed his eyebrows.
"How could you say that it's fine! He ate everything Mom! I'm hungry too and I can't just eat ramen for dinner-Ouch! Mom, that hurts!" Jungkook winced in pain since Mrs. Jeon stepped on his foot under the table.
"Don't mind him Jimin, it's fine really. Oh, and I have ice creams I'll just go and get it." Mrs. Jeon stood up from her chair and walked towards the refrigerator. Jungkook who was left with Jimin glared at the shorter. Jimin was still looking down but he knew that Jungkook was giving him death glares. He got embarrassed suddenly.
"You! How could you pig out like that?!"
"JUNGKOOK!" Mrs. Jeon shouted from the kitchen. Jungkook stopped but he's still glaring at Jimin. He looked away but a smile crept on his face. He might've scolded Jimin but deep inside he thought that Jimin might be fun to be with.
How could someone like him eat that fast? Is he a food fighter or something?
"I'm really sorry..." Jimin mumbled, his voice so low because of embarrassment.
"How old are you?" Jimin looked at the taller with a confused expression. Jungkook looked at him with a blank stare, his chin on his hand that was rested on the dining table. "Didn't you hear me?" Jimin blinked before he tried to muster an answer.
"I'm 16." Jungkook gave a small smile.
"From now on call me Jungkook-hyung then...since I'm older than you by two years." Jimin realized what Jungkook said and he blushed immediately. He stared at Jungkook's figure for a moment, suddenly he felt a warm feeling inside him.
"Jungkook... hyung..." Jungkook looked surprised. He was not expecting Jimin to call him hyung, at least not at this moment. His heartbeats slowly increased. What the hell Jeon Jungkook! Control your heartbeats!
Jungkook looked away and cleared his throat before he answered back. "Y-Yeah?"
Jimin smiled feeling little butterflies inside him although he doesn't know that. "Thank you...f-for staying with me earlier and for h-helping me out."
Jungkook heard Jimin and this time he almost chokes on his own saliva. The heat started to crawl over his face so he drank his orange juice in one go. Mrs. Jeon walked with the ice creams and sensed the tension between the two. She looked at how her son's face was slightly red so she smirked thinking about a good idea.
"Jimin?" The shy boy faced her direction.
"Would you mind staying for the night? You could sleep in Jungkook's room." She asked, more like a request.
