Chapter 11

I've never seen a mouth that I would kill to kiss

"I mean it jimin don't let her have what she wants she's not what you think she is," he said in a whisper

I looked into his eyes "what do you mean? h-how do you know?" I questioned perplexed "I just do...trust me" I sigh not understanding a word he was saying "what did you mean by she's not what I think she is...she's just a voice in my head-" "no she's not" he cut me off backing away making the distance between us I looked at him not understanding what he's saying.

"Then what is she?" Jimin questioned furrowing his brows, taehyung stared at him for a second making eye contact then looked away sighing, "you won't understand" he replied gulping. Jimin couldn't be more confused

Nothing was making sense for the aforementioned. how did taehyung know, who is she? Why is she doing this? Why must it be him? All these questions kept running inside his brain making him unable to focus and catch up with whatever was going

Taehyung sensed that and looked up at jimin again "do you not trust me?" He asked looking at jimin who was staring blankly at the wall with eyebrows furrowed and no emotion whatsoever. The only emotion that was visible on the said boy's face was utter confusion

Taehyung grabbed jimin by his shoulders and make him look at him "I know we've only known each other for just a while and I should be the last person you trust but for only this time trust me" taehyung said looking right into jimin's eyes

"I do trust you taehyung I'm just confused because you're not telling me anything," jimin said "she's a... spirit... like me," taehyung said softly, jimin looked at him in utter shock "what are you saying, how do you know?" Jimin asked still not understanding anything

"I can feel her you know... spirits are not ordinary creatures we have powers that's how I know when you walked in the house I felt her coming with you and I can also read your thoughts sometimes and you were talking to her I heard it all she's the one who forced you to do it that day right?" Taehyung explained everything to jimin with honesty

"So you're saying it was a spirit all along she was the one who said al-all those th-things," jimin said his legs gave up, and he sits on the edge of the bed tears are falling from his eyes again. how many nights he cried because of her how many people he lost because of her "no it can't be true she's just a voice in my head it was me," he said in between sobs

Teahyung knelt in front of jimin and held his hands "jimin it wasn't you. it was her she's the one who controls you and your thoughts look I can talk to you in your brain too like I did before" taehyung wiped jimin's tears "don't let her hurt you anymore jimin-ah"

"But what does she want from me? she has been with me since I was a kid, what's the explanation to that?" jimin questioned the older "I don't know, this is something you have to find out on your own" taehyung said "I can't do it I'm not that brave, she always makes me do what she wants. I tried so many times to ignore her but she won't leave me... never, she only leaves me when i.." jimin stopped not wanting to tell his secret that he was hiding for so long

"When you what jimin?" Taehyung asked and jimin can see concern and care in his eyes, jimin gulped and looks at his hands that taehyung was holding and then at the matching red string bracelet in their hands "just when I hurt myself" the teardrop fell from jimin's eye onto taehyung's cheek

"You don't have to do that jimin, promise me you won't hurt yourself anymore" taehyung softly caressed Jimin's hands. jimin slightly nods in agreement. he knows he doesn't want to do it too he does it only to get rid of her, taehyung smiled at him "we'll find a way to get rid of her we'll get through this"
