[Realisation~]

Across the street one could see the fancy dancing of light, along with a large crowd in the entry gate of Ilsan Lake park.

When I enter the exhibition my eyes instantly fall upon Jenny who had worn an elegant, bodycon red dress, with a slit cut reaching to her thighs.

Beside her stood Yoongi, in full black suit and his arm possessively wrapped around her waist.

An action letting others know their boundaries.

While Jungkook and I make our way towards them, Tae gets carried away by the swarming crowd of newly made friends.

Talk about being a social butterfly.

"Unnie! Oh my gosh- this is amazing. I'm so proud of you", I give her a tight hug.
"Thank you so much, Rosie", she giggles

On the other side I see Jungkook and Yoongi too greet each other with a hug.

I raise my brow in suprise and a tiny bit of curiosity.

"They seem quite close", I mumble
"Hm? Who?"
"Yoongi and Jungkook", I clarify

"Aaa. Yeah they are. Jungkook helps Yoongi in collecting souls for afterlife", Jenny explains
I nod.

After few minutes Jimin and Lisa too join us.

"What took you so long?", Yoongi asks
"Thenks to a certain someone we went to the wrong route and got lost in the way", Lisa rolls her eyes.

"Heya! The map itself was wrong", Jimin defends himself.
"Yeah yeah. The map was wrong", Lisa sarcastically replies.

"You guys enjoy yourselves. I need to attend some guests", Jenny says

Just like that she walks towards the opposite direction; Yoongi tagging along with her.

Lisa and Jimin keep bickering with each other, so I take the opportunity to excuse myself and roam around a bit.

As I take a look around, a tree of plum flowers catches my attention.

It was the same flower engraved in my pendant.

"Pretty isn't it?"

I don't even turn around to see who is it.
By now I have normalised to him popping out of the blue.

I hum in agreement.

"You know what does a plum say in the language of flowers", Jungkook stands beside me.
"What?"

"It blooms beautifully even in the cold harsh winter, showing hope and how beauty thrives even in such adversity. It resembles warmth and the promise of fruitfulness"

Involuntarily I touch my pendant.

Look at the irony
Such a beautiful thing engraved in a pendant holding the cruelest curse of all.

"Rock, paper, scissors!!!!"

Dammit.
Fck you paper
Why am I so bad at this game?

I frown

"Yes!! Go Rosie. I want mint chocolate chip", Lisa says with a smile reaching her ears.

After the exhibition we all decided to have dinner at our bakery and since an ice cream as a desert is a must we came up with the plan to play a game and make the looser buy it.

Little did I know I would be the one to doing the auspicious deed

"Vannila for me"(Jimin)
"Chocolate"(Jenny)
"Butter pecan"(Yoongi)

I turn to face Jungkook, "What about you?"
"Any flavour would do"

_

I pay the bill and walk towards my bakery.

My hand reaches for the entrance door, but it pauses mid way.

Inside I see Jungkook bickering with Jimin and laughing genuinely at some lame joke.

He looked so relaxed.

I smile looking at him smile.

My chest felt warm at the sight of him interact with others more and enjoying.

Then all of a sudden everything came rushing in.

All the emotions I've tried putting hold to, it bursts out.

I don't feel for him?
What a hilarious lie I've been feeding myself

I not only feel for him.............I love him
And the fact that the price of me loving him is the end of his existence makes my heart feel suffocated

It hurts

To imagine a world without him
A life where he isn't there to mock me- tease me
A life where he has no part in

It hurts so damn much that I'm crying

I am the doom of Doom itself

Jungkook notices me and begins walking towards me

"What took you so long- Hey whats wrong?", he frowns and cups my face in his hands

I can no longer control my sobs
Worriedly, he tightly wraps his arms around me

After this two months these arms won't be there to comfort me this way and it'll be all my fault

"Shhh, it's all right", he pats my head
No it isn't

"Jungkook"
"Yeah, I'm right here"

I look straight into his eyes, " What should I do? I have fallen for you"

He pauses for a while, too stunned to speak

"I love you, Jungkook. I'm so sorry", I cry harder into his chest

"It's alright Rosè.
I love you too. Everything is gonna be alright", he tightens his arms, pulling me closer.

Been busy lately
