The moonlight illuminated the dark forest I walked silently through it. My heart thumped vigorously against my chest. Finally it was the night where I was going to experience something which I was longing for since I got to know know my true existence. Or it was just a get away?
Following mindlessly the path which I had absolutely no idea, I started seeing some glittering body. The dried leaves were making terrible sound when were pressed by my feet. I looked over that flickering surface again as the sensation of chilly forest rolled down my spine. My mind numb due to numerous clouded thoughts which was making this whole lot harder for me. As I went near, I perceived that it was the absolute lake Jungkook was talking about.
Fear and nervousness were piling up in me. It was darker than usual in here, but perfect amount of full-moonlight sparkled all of the water body making it look much more shiner. The were no clouds up in the black-pitched sky which made the twinkling objects brighter than normal. This whole scenario was absolutely mesmerizing and I wished I was here for exploring and happily travelling but not to face the bitter unnatural truth of Jungkook.
Truthfully I was a lot agitated by the whole 'meeting up near a lake in forest' thing. Not because of animals or fearful experiences, but because I felt my inner demon self gradually holding more and more power over me actual form as I shortened the distance between this nameless water body. I was afraid of the fact that I might really do something really cruel and full of brutality which my true self may not have control of to Jungkook if, he says something triggering to me. Past occurrences filled through my brain as I constantly told myself to calm down and get rid of the gibberish thoughts.
Time was ticking faster than usual, but there were no signs of him. I was longing for his appearance so bad. I didn't even see him lately after that incident which made my worry for him intensify. Though Hye-jin said he had to visit his grandma because of some confidential errands, I knew that was not the reason for his absence. Something was going to happen which will take a terrible turn in my life, or should I say Our Lives.
It was almost 12:56 AM and I was slowly loosing hope to see him now. I was waiting for him since one hour and now my patience was getting the best of me. I was already very tired because of running around for home-room teacher all day for pleading him not to take off points from my club. Yeah yeah, that's right. After getting caught with Taehyung for doing mischievous stuff in school hours, we had to compensate also. Hopefully they didn't rang a call to my mom or else she would definitely yell at me.
Sighing heavily, I settled myself near a tree exactly in front of the lake and was trying to not doze off. Exhaustion and soreness was making my body feel like steel. My eyes were barely open until I heard some muffled voicing from the back of he tree,
" Noona, you really came"
After hearing the voice at reflex I almost jumped out of my place, breathing out a significant heavy huff. My insides went cold and I could feel myself sweating a lot, out of blue. There was a lump forming in my throat and I got a wild desire to drink some liquid.
Catching my normal inhalation back, I patted my chest a few times. Clearing my throat to throw away the itchy feeling, I sprinted rapidly to the back of the tree only to be smacked by a hard-buff surface. My gaze traveled up to the figure which was before me and my mouth was immediately left hanging open,
"Jungkook, where were you?" I commented as I scanned him up with my eyes before letting out a unbelievable chuckle.
He was dressed up in black casual front-open shirt with some blue denim shorts. The shorts had chains hanging around in fascinating way which made it look more fashionable. And not to mention he had an unusual appearance on his face which was unreadable for me. His hair were gelled backwards exposing his whitened forehead. With some oxidized earrings planted on his ears along with dark-shaded bracelets wrapped around his wrist.
Okay, he looked unconditionally good with the overall attire.
Before I could interrogate him with further questions, my eyes got locked with his. And my breath hitched for a moment. I could sense the uneasiness they were radiating through it. The atmosphere suddenly got a lot more icy than before, but I continued to observe his orbs.
"Jungkook, your eyes..." I let out an inaudible mumble.
To my surprise, he release a soft yet dreadful chuckle and motioned me to come to the front of the tree so we could view the glittery lake.
" Let's go more towards it! It's okay, we'll be fine." he said clearly with no hesitation lingering in his tone.
With my fastened heartbeat, I mindlessly followed his saying. It looked like he came here before, and was not visiting this place for the first time like me. His lips pressed into a straight line as he lead the way to the lake's shore. What's wrong with him?
I glanced at him and observed that he was removing his footwear. Don't tell me we're going to swim or or something in this windy weather at freaking 1 in the morning!
My hand instantly collided with his shoulders trying to stop whatever the hell he is doing. He looked at me with again those dark, emotionless empty orbs which were giving me bad energy since start. Normally he was with his black-doe Bambi eyes which could melt anyone's heart at instant. There were many questions I wanted to ask him, but decided to keep mum till the right time arrives to explode with them.
" Jungkook-ah, why are you removing shoes? Are we gonna jump in water or something? If yes, then I'm not down for such watery adventure!" I verbalized my thoughts and felt at ease after it. I believed if I would act normal around him like we used to be, he would loosen up too. But I guess in this case I'm wrong, terribly wrong.
Again, he viewed me with a cold- dispassionate look which made me literally fear him a little. Generally he would be a bubbly enthusiastic-soft boy who would always joke around. I desperately wanted to see him back to his ordinary self but think this as not the perfect time to do so. My face saddened a bit seeing him react like that but still I tried to feel fine.
" You also take off you boots, we are just going to dip our feet in the water. " he said with same cold-blooded voice which made my skin freeze up.
Reluctance was observed by my actions as I quietly did what he ordered me to do, and approached him a little. Satisfied with my obeying, he grabbed my arms gently and we both felt the chilly water rinsing our feet.
But something was off with this water. Not something, there was a major not-appropriate thing happening in here right now. I withdrew my leg from the water hoping to feel the liquid still creating a wet layer on it.
But that was the twist. Even though the I sensed the water touching my feet, my leg was completely dry with no traces of moistened coat. As if I didn't dip my leg in water in the first place.
