•Stranger• BTS × Shawn Mendes

Chapter 24

Did you ever feel empty? The feeling where you almost feel that everything inside you just got swept away in a blink.

Your mind was frozen, unable to process anything Your tears were drying up with the last strand of hope so was your heart, making it extremely painful. You stare at the guy without blinking, tearful eyes felt like the crystal that is clearing up your vision to see the reality. It wasn't Shawnie. No, It was Shawn Mendes. An unknown man talking to you very rudely. A stranger that you never knew. Yes, he is a stranger. He was back then, and he is still now.

Shawn takes a deep breath. You could see the vapour coming out of his mouth, as it was the time of the year when it's preparing itself to snow. The freezing weather was making your face red, but it also because you were angry and sorry for yourself. Your eyes were forming red as the tears were bleeding through your eyes. Shawn postures his back straight and closes his eyes to open them again and turn to face you. His hands reached his pocket almost instantly.

"So, I will introduce myself." He spits the words, rudeness drooling from the tone of his voice.

You remained quiet, still observing his face without blinking.

"As I said, I'm called Shawn. Shawn Mendes. I am not quite sure how I ended up in your house. But, I can certainly thank you for taking care of me. You saved Shawn Mendes's life, so I owe you. Whenever you need me i will be there to help. Now, please stop crying for goodness sake, I am no one to you."

His voice indicated annoyance. Completely different from your Shawnie. You still can't come to think of that your Shawnie never existed. All of that emotions never existed. Even it did, you don't want to believe that your Shawnie is gone. Another harsh tear falls down your cheek.

"Where is Shawnie?" You ignored all of his response and your mouth slips the word that you wanted to hear. "No, where is my Shawnie?"

"Listen. this Shawnie shit is over. I can't believe l even allowed that name to exist." You don't want to believe how this guy was the same guy you spent three months with. This Shawn doesn't form a sentence without a cuss word and your Shawnie was so precious that didn't even know that those words existed.

"Shawnie...." your voice trembles again.

"SHUT UP." He harshly grabs your upper arm, and glaring at you angrily. You don't allow yourself to even blink or break apart the gaze. You were much stronger than this. He cannot intimidate you. You allow a tear to peep through the corner of your eyes once again; yet you were stubbornly staring at him, not allowing yourself to even blink. "Don't call me that." He ejects.

He leaves you out of his grip. You do stumble but fix yourself. "Who are you?" You ask.

"I will tell you once so, listen carefully." He says. "I am Shawn Mendes. You consider yourself lucky that you are fortunate enough to see my face." His voice coming out with pride and arrogance. You want to slap his arrogant face, but you resisted yourself.

"Korea's one of the most wanted Mafia. Shawn Mendes. Make sure to note down the name. If you want to be alive stay away from this name." He continues. "I protect the illegal sites and businesses you can name it. But, don't worry! am not the ones that kills. Well, I can if I want. But I am a bit more special than that." He smirks. "I earn black money by creating drugs, In other words, Drug dealing. I'm a scientist that creates them and trades them worldwide. I am pretty much unknown in that underworld."

Your eyes were threatening to fall out. You didn't understand the theory behind it. You were shaking with shock. You absolutely cannot believe you were taking care of a criminal until now. You wished for Shawnie to come back until now, but right now you wanted nothing more than his face to disappear from your existence.
