I ran and ran with no destination. I had no knowledge of the area I was in.
All I know was that I was in the jungle, and had no idea of where I was going. I take a moment to look back as I see a glimpse of Jungkook grabbing his head in frustration having no idea of how close he actually is to me.
Yet, I ran until it started getting dark. I sat down under one of the trees taking my breath before noticing small bugs crawling up my leg.
Of course, I forgot I had blood all over me.
I walk for a bit praying no predator sniffs me out smelling the blood on me, to my surprise, I see a house with smoke coming out of it.
I make my way to it seeing a small cottage with a Maltese sleeping outside. Crossing my fingers, I approached the door.
This time, I won't ask for help. Instead I'll analyze the character of this person.
A grandma, fairly old opens the door, "Oh my! Look at you!" To my surprise, she wasn't afraid.
"Im sorry... I have lost my way around here.." Thinking of an excuse for the blood I say, "Uh, I was out hunting with my father before a bird he shot down fell on me."
"Must have been a big bird! Theres so much blood!" She opens the door wider, "Come, have a shower, I'll give you my grandson's clothes to change into. He stays a bit far away from here but he won't be coming by soon."
"Thank you so much." I say as I walk in to her small but cozy living room. She guided me to her grandson's room and showed me how to get hot water.
"And here's a towel." She handed it to me, "Im actually making dinner right now, I'll make some for you too."
I simply nodded yes and securely locked the door before undressing in the bathroom. I turn on the shower and stand under it as I watch all the blood wash down from head to toe and into the drain.
Instantly, tears flow down my eyes. "I got into this myself..."
If it just wasn't for how I behaved, I wouldn't have been in this position. Is this how I'm really paying for what I did?
Did I do something that deserves this? Or... Am I forgetting something?
I used the bar of soap and the men's shampoo and got out of the once warm shower. Changing into the clothes grandma left me, I see myself in the mirror.
The shirt fell off my shoulder, and the shorts reached till my knees. I sigh and fix the shirt, I tuck it in the shorts and tie the knot as tight as possible.
"Child?" Grandma came inside the room, "I think this might be useful to you." She handed me a hair-tie.
"Thank you." I say as I tied my damp hair in a loose ponytail.
"Come, I've prepared dinner." She softly held my hand and walked me to the dinner table.
"Sit." She says as she sat down.
I sat waiting for her start as she smiled and picked up her spoon. As soon as she did that, I picked up my spoon and dug into the soup and rice.
I hadn't realized how hungry I actually was, without any noise, I finished one bowl of rice.
"You seem to be very hungry huh?" Grandma says as she stood up taking my bowl. "Even my grandson had a great appetite like yours..."
"I think he's the same age as you!" She cheerfully says as she placed the second bowl of rice in front of me.
"Yeah..." I say as I continued eating.
"You don't seem to be much of a talker huh?" Grandma says as she too continued eating, "What's your name?"
I took a pause before swallowing my food, "Y/N." I say.
"What a pretty name!" Just then, someone knocked on her door.
"I wasn't expecting anyone... let me see." She gets up and open the door.
"Oh my!" She exclaims happily. I see the silhouette of a man standing leaning on the door frame, "My grandson! My Jimin!"
At that moment I chocked on the spoonful of rice I had in my mouth.
"I have a visitor come in sweetheart." She kissed his cheek as he fixed his gaze on me.
"And who's this?" He chuckled.
"This is Y/N, she lost her way while hunter with her father, I think she'll spend the night here." Grandma brought him to the table as I patted my chest coughing.
"Grandma, I think she's choking." He says smiling.
"Oh, sweetheart hold on." She handed me a glass of water and I hurriedly drank it, "Why are you so tense Y/N?" She rubbed my back trying to comfort me.
"I-I just had a long day." I push my chair back and hurriedly stand up, "I think I'll go home."
"But how will you do its pitch black outside!" She said concerned about my behavior.
I get stopped by Jimin who stood at the door blocking my way, "Hey, I think you should finish eating then go to sleep huh? It'll be a long night for you anyways." He glares as Grandma watches confused.
I was more scared than I was anxious. There's no escape, I should have told her earlier about what's happening with me.
I slowly sat down at the table as grandma and Jimin too sat down, "Eat children." She seemed to be in a very jolly mood, "This is the first time in ages my grandson has come to visit me!"
She finished her meal as I too finished mine keeping my mind all my moves were being watched by Jimin.
My heart was stuck up to my throat, but yet, i was able to distract myself with my hunger.
————
It was about quarter to 12am, after having dinner grandma asked me to use Jimin's room and asked Jimin to sleep in the living room for the day.
Surprisingly, without giving me a look as if he wanted to kill me right at that moment. He agreed to sleep on the small couch.
Of course, I had locked the rooms door and the windows because I was completely unsure of my surroundings.
It was maybe around 2am, when I felt two hands pinning my hands above my head. Still mid sleep, I mumble, "What is it now...?"
"I told you you'd pay." I heard a deep voice whisper, "Now the louder you make a noise, the more it hurts."
I felt a sharp pain electrify my entire arm, slightly opening my eyes, I see Jimin smiling as Jungkook who was beside him injected a liquid into my arm instantly bringing me into a semi conscious mind state.
