17: How The Cookie Crumbles

Tzuyu

"Ahhh! Wait! Ouch can you be more careful! Ahh!" He's been shouting and shouting but I just ignored him. I'm so ashamed of his behavior right now. Good thing there's only few people here in the convenient store.

"You're a man but you're acting like a girl." I joked and continue to rub the medicine in the side of his lips.

"Are you really trying to heal my wound or torturing me?" He asked. I just stopped what I'm doing and sat in the chair while facing the smoke from the noodles in the table.

"Jimin, you already know who Jungkook is?" I asked him and started eating. It hurts to just say his name, but I really want to hear his answers.

"We don't know each other but Jungkook is really popular in different kind of schools so it's not really hard to find him. He's known as 'Jungkook the monggol', prankster, jerk and crazy. All the students in his school is afraid of him."

I suddenly stopped eating after hearing what Jimin said. It's hard but I tried to smile at him. Atleast Jungkook have a normal life now and is happy even though I'm not by his side.

"Tzuyu sorry." Jimin softly said like he's guilty so I just nodded and played with the noodles.

"Sorry for what? You don't know that Jungkook is really a hardcore jerk." I tried to make a joke even though the tears in my eyes is starting to fall.

"Aren't you hurt?"

"What kind of question is that?" I asked while laughing. "Of course it hurts..."

"Then why are you still laughing?"

"Because I can still do it. As long as I live, I'll continue to laugh and smile. Despite all the pain, you'll still get to see me laugh and smile. That's my super power" I joked. I also finished treating his wound so I cleaned up and faced the ramen we bought.

"Do you love him?"

I smiled. "I don't matter to him anymore but he still matters to me. But after all the things he said, I think I have to forget about him so that I won't get hurt anymore. And to forget him, maybe I have to admit my feelings first. I have to admit and make peace with the fact that I'm in love with Jeon Jungkook."

"He doesn't deserve you." He said while shaking his head.

"He deserves better." I chuckled and nodded.

"No, you're already the best. It's you who deserves better."

I was about to speak when I suddenly felt something dripping from my nose. So I touched it and my eyes widened when I saw blood.

My hands began to tremble, and I felt my heart palpitating. I couldn't breathe and started gasping for air, clutching my chest tightly.

"Tzuyu!"

Third Person's POV

"Help! Please help us! She's not breathing!" Jimin is panicking while shouting when they arrived at the hospital. He's carrying Tzuyu's weak bloody body. He's really scared that he can't even stop himself from crying.

"What happened?" Asked by the doctor who greeted them and with the help of another nurse, they laid Tzuyu on a stretcher.

"I don't know! Suddenly her nose bled and she lost consciousness!" Jimin stammered, his fear didn't subside so he just scratched his head and closed his eyes.
