Chapter 58: Distance

***italics means it was said in Korean***

Aila could feel the despair and the weight in her chest. It felt almost restrictive, caging her lungs, making her hands sweat and leg bounce in nervousness.

Whatever was going on in the building felt helpless, lost.

Was she sorry for what she did?

No.

She hadn't done anything bad. She had just been honest.

This is the reason why she was never honest. People are too damn sensitive. However her heart did go out to Jungkook and Taehyung.

She had spent enough time with the boys to figure them out. She knew Taehyung probably went back to not liking her.

There it was again, the pressure in her chest.

Her soulmates were not feeling too well and her heart was begging to go back to them, her legs very close to obey the voice in her heart.

But her thoughts were interrupted when a SUV came in and three of BTS's bodyguards stepped out.

This didn't feel right to her heart.

She sprinted towards the entrance of the building, hoping to find her soulmates in the same room as before.

***

The bodyguards were already on their way before the phone call. They needed to make sure everyone made it back safely. However the phone call explaining what they had to do confused them.

They had been called to assist in taking Aila back to the hotel, and to make sure she didn't approach BTS.

Why would they have to make their soulmate stay away from them.

The call was rushed and panicked. They had to get to the center as fast as they could.

They made it just in time to see Aila run into the building.

Now they began to panic. She was the person they needed to take away. So they hurried after her only to loose her in the hallways.

They made their way to the receptionist at the entrance to explain who they were and why they were there.

****

Aila made her way to the room she had rushed out of. She didn't even knock, nor did she pay attention to everyone watching her.

She pushed the door open, with no warning, making her soulmates jump.

"Are you guys ok? What's going on?" They could feel the concern she had. She made her way to them, noticing how red their eyes and noses looked.

"Why are you crying?" She was closest to Jimin. Her heart broke at his tear-stained cheeks, at his runny nose. She took a step closer, when she noticed how Sejin got in the way of her.

She looked at him, with a cold expression.

"I just want to see what's wrong with them. I promise I won't do anything."

"Hyung, please don't do this." Jungkook's voice cracked as Yoongi wiped his tears.

Now Aila could see there was something very wrong. Her chest sunk.

She pushed past Sejin, not caring how he held her arm, not caring how much it hurt to pull her arm away.

She thru herself at Jungkook, his arms instantly opening for her. She pressed her body as close as possible to his, arms going around his neck. He rested his head on her shoulder, and began to shake from his cries.
