Fifty four : Steely

Taehyung placed the glass of water on the dinning table and sat motionless on the chair, his eyes watching the one in front of him with no glimmer of interest.

The stillness around them building up the slightest irritation within taehyung, he taps on the table to grab attention and receives the small flinch from jungkook.

Gulping and untangling his intertwined hands, jungkook slowly takes hold on the glass of water which he requested earlier at their meet, as a excuse the break the never ending silence between them and taehyung agreed with a stutter of yes--- the only words they exchanged till now.

He sips a tiny bit of water, just to moisten his dry throat and pushed the glass away on the table, not once daring to look up at taehyung.

If he did, then he'd see a face having no emotions, just blank and cold, staring at him with furrowed brows.

Taehyung was not expecting anyone known, definitely not jungkook. And did he felt thankful that it was just jungkook and not any thief or criminal!?

Surprisingly he didn't! Just felt worse.

Out of all these, he was surprised at himself that his tears didn't show up till now amidst of his wrenchingly painful heart.

Maybe it was true, you learn a little more about yourself whenever someone close to your heart leaves.

Now taehyung did realise that his pain was too much and of limit to shed anymore tears for his love. Or maybe there was no more tears left to show his heartache.

Seeing jungkook after four months felt different. The fact that he didn't felt any ounce of happiness or relief like he once did at hoseok's housewarming party was indeed a unexpected shock.

Jungkook's appearance gave him sense of bewilderment in his mind. Plain pants, black thin shirt, eyes underlined with dark circles, skin paler and slightly dark in shade than his usual honey skin tone, hair slightly messy and wet. He had no accessories put on, just him sitting in a inferior looking clothes.

He didn't let the confusion sit on his mind too long, just looked away for a moment.

Taking a deep breath, taehyung finally decides to end this silence, "Why are you here, jungkook?"

Jungkook eyes squeezes close, body feeling the shivers upon hearing taehyung's voice after a long time.

He opens his mouth, surprised that no voice came out which forces him to take a deep breath to calm his heavy breathings.

"I wanted to see...you and--" His voice trails off as his throat constricts painfully. He didn't expect any good presentation of his words, just speaking brokenly was more than enough for him at this condition.

"See me?" Taehyung's eyes shoots a glare, disbelief filling up in his now irascible mind.

The air was harder to breath for jungkook, lips pursed and hand trembling which he tried to hide it by covering on his lap.

Taehyung's eyes flitted from jungkook to the clock that hung on the wall, ticking twelve at midnight. He straightens his face, not letting jungkook's visible agitation get on his heart.

"Okay, you saw me, now leave" His cold voice fairly fitting his hard expression.

Jungkook's eyes blink faster than usual, trying to vanish his tears. Those words which spill out of taehyung was something he had the slightest hope to not hear but was definitely not what he didn't expect.

Jungkook shook his head, confusing the hell out of taehyung. "What really do you want jungkook? Why did you come here when i made myself clear last time to never show up!"
