The Cabin ✅

Seokjin

I have been in this cabin for over 3 months now, and nothing is getting better. Sleepless nights have become more common, I have horrible nightmares, and night terrors, some nights I don't even try to sleep. I quit my job, changed my number, and deleted all my social media, the only people who know I am here are my parents, I didn't even tell my friends, I just left.

The cabin is my grandparents home, it sits on a small hill over looking the water and a little camp site, I see families down there occasionally, fishing, swimming, and roasting marshmallows.

The porch has a swing that I sit on for hours at a time just thinking about everything I have been thru in the past few months, and I know that I am just feeling sorry for myself, I am alive and I should be grateful. My parents want me to go to therapy, they want me to get help from somewhere so that I wont be burdened by the guilt that I feel, but I don't want anyone else knowing what I did, I didn't want to air my dirty laundry for all to see and judge. I want what happened to just go away, stop haunting me, I don't want to feel this guilt anymore.

The kids and I are sitting around kind of bored, not knowing what to do this weekend, we are in the tv room watching movies when my daughter Josie says, "I had a dream about mommy last night." "Oh yea, was it a good dream", I ask. "She was sad daddy, she said that she is sad because you are lonely and that to cheer you up we should take you camping to your favorite spot", Josie says. "Yea camping sounds awesome daddy please", Arlo says mirroring his sisters excitement. "Lets go camping, go pack up and Ill grab the tents and sleeping bags, we will stop on the way and get a grill and food", I say just as excited as they were.

I wondered about my daughters dream, did she really dream of her, or did she say that to get me to agree to go. I lost my wife 3 months ago in a car crash, she was my wife thru an arranged marriage, we weren't in love with each other, but we had mutual respect for each other being parents to two wonderful kids. The kids were hers from a previous relationship, but when we got married I adopted them, their father ran as soon as he heard she was pregnant with Arlo, so she asked him to sign over all rights to them, and he did.

We are in the car heading to the lake where my dad used to take me when I was a kid, he was friends with the couple who lived in the cabin up on the hill, they have since left and moved in with their children because the husband fell ill. The campsite is right by a little lake, great for fishing, my son brought his fishing pole saying he would catch us dinner. 

When we arrived no one was there, so we get to choose the best location, we set up the tents and collect wood for a fire. I see the little cabin on the hill and it hasn't changed one bit, I wonder if they sold it or if it still belongs to the Kim's. "I'm going to explore daddy", Josie says picking up a huge stick. "Don't go far baby girl", I tell her, watching her walk down the river bank.

I actually decide to get out of the cabin today, I'm starting to feel claustrophobic, we have a small pier down by the water, when I was a kid I'd fish there with my Grandpa. I sit at the end of it and dangle my feet in the water, it's actually warm today, and the sun feels good on my face.

"Hi mister", I turned when I hear a pretty little voice. "Hi there, where did you come from", I ask her. "My family is camping down that way", she says pointing down to the campsite, "are you camping too." "No, I actually live up in that cabin,", I say. "Oh it's so cute, can I see it", she asks. What's your name", I ask her. "Josie, what's yours", she asks. "You can call me Jin and I should probably meet your parents first before I take you into my home, I don't want them to think I'm trying take you", I smile and wink. 

She laughs, "it's just my daddy, my mommy died." "Oh I'm sorry sweetheart", I say sadly. We splash our feet in the water for a little while, "I should be getting home it's getting late and I'm sure your daddy is wondering where you are", I say. "Can I see you tomorrow, my daddy and brother will be fishing all day and that's boring", she says taking my hand. I smile, "sure, I can come down and get you and introduce myself to your daddy, so he knows you'll be safe", I say waving goodbye to her.

"There you are I was worried sick, I called for you, did you not hear me", I scold. "I'm sorry daddy, I was sitting with Jinnie Oppa on the pier", she says smiling. "Who's Jinnie", I ask. "He is my new friend, he lives in the cabin up on the hill", she says grabbing a bottle of water, "he said I can hang out with him tomorrow while you and Arlo go fishing." "Josie he is stranger, I don't want you going into anyone's house", I say concerned.

 "Daddy, he is going to come down in the morning and introduce himself, wait till you meet him, he is so sweet and so beautiful", Josie says. "Is he now", I say intrigued, I wonder if he is related to the Kim's. I wonder what Josie means by beautiful, one reason I never fell in love with my wife is because I have never liked women, but to make my family happy, I gave in.

The next morning I had eggs cooking on the fire when the kids woke up, they sleepily came out of their tents. "Morning Daddy", Arlo says. "Morning buddy, are you hungry", I ask. "JINNIE OPPA, you came", Josie squeals. "I told you I would", the gorgeous male said walking down the steps. I stood and haven't taken my eyes off him yet, he is fucking beautiful.

 "Jin Oppa this is my daddy, Kim Taehyung", Josie says. Our eyes meet and I smile widely, but he has a distraught look on his face, "Its you, I am so sorry", he sobs and runs back up to the cabin. "Daddy what happened", Josie asks. "I don't know baby girl, but lets go find out", I say.
