Me - ..........?????............

I open my eyes slowly. It's still dark. I look at the clock, it's 01:25 AM.

Me - Hm? Why did I wake up so suddenly?

I look at my side to find Haniya sleeping. Then I move to look down.

Me - Jungkook?

He's not there. I look in the room. He's not there. Maybe he went to the restroom? I get up silently, trying not to wake up the little human sleeping next to me. After covering her with the sheet and leave to look for Jungkook. I knock at the door of the restroom, only to find it open.

Me - He's not here. Then where? Where did he go?

That's weird. He can't go out, the door's locked. I still look to my surroundings, finding the window wide open.

Me - He surely went out.

I go close to the window. As I look out, I could hear a faint sound of someone singing. Eventually I jump out of the window and start walking following the voice.

' ....the paper say it's doomsday,
The button has been pressed.
We're gonna nuke each other up boys,
Till old Satan stands impressed.
And here it is, our final night alive,
As the earth burns to the ground.

Oh girl it's yooooouuuuuu that I lie with!
As the aaaaaaaatom bomb locks in!
Oh girl it's you, I watch TV with.....
As the wooooooorld, as the world caves in.

I put my final suit on,
You paint your fingernails.
Oh we're going out in style babe,
And everything's on sale.

We creep up on extinction,
I pull your arms right in.
I weep and say goodnight, love
While my organs pack it in.

And here it is, our final night alive,
And as the earth runs to the ground.

Oh girl, it's yooooouuuuu that I lie with,
As the aaaaaaatom bomb locks in!
Oh, it's you I watch TV with,
As the woooooorld, as the woooorld caves in!

Oh, it's you that I liiiiie with!
As the aaaaaatom bomb locks in.
Yes it's you I welcome death with,
As the wooooorld, as the wooooorld caves in!

As the world caves in.'

Me - .............

Jungkook turns and our eyes connect. I feel like an artery popped in my brain. I have goosebumps all over my body. This is unusual, highly unusual.

And why is he looking at me like that? He's not even moving. Did he get surprised too much? Damn, what should I do?

Me - Y-you okay? Why are you singing out here at this hour?

He doesn't answer. Instead, he just sits down, facing the sea.
I'm hella confused. I scratch my head a little when he pats the space beside him. Is he asking me to sit down?

Probably.

I sit down.

Jungkook - What is it?
Me - What?
Jungkook - Why do you want to end it? What's your reason?
