When Fantasy Became Reality | BTS

Chapter 72

"So I might count every star to where you are.
And write you metaphors in millions with all the skies.
But really, you just need to know:
I miss you.
I've still never seen stars like the ones in your eyes."

-Niocra Kladsflem

Jungkook's POV

It was absolutely dreading to live with the other members these days. They treated me as if I didn't exist at all. Anything that was prepared or ordered was just for six people.

Many a times, if I had some work with the members and I heard voices from inside the room, I knocked on the door but it was never answered. I would peek inside and find them sleeping, well actually, pretending to sleep, and the television or their monitor would be playing old videos and pictures of Taraa and us.

The liveliness inside the house had gone. Even they talked to each other only for important things.

Seeing the situation, I knew that I should leave the house and go to my own. But whenever I was alone, the illusions were worse, and I felt like I would go crazy. So, just having someone present around me was enough.

I had just come out from my room after hearing some commotion.

"Why are you not replying to my messages?!" Hiah questioned, as soon as her eyes fell on me. Jimin stood at a distance with his arms crossed, and I assumed that he was the one who had answered the door.

"I was busy." I answered.

"Yeah? So, why are you not even picking up calls?"

"I said I was busy." I replied.

"With what? I don't see you busy."

"None of your business."

I was getting irritated by her every second.

"Jungkook, I-"

"What's happening here?" she was cut off by Namjoon who had just appeared from the kitchen, followed by Jin. Hiah opened her mouth to reply, but before she could, he again spoke.

"Whatever it is, no outsider is welcome here for the reasons that I don't believe I find necessary to share with you. So, from now on, I request that you do not come here to discuss your personal matters. Or even professional. Do it at your home, or his." He pointed at me. "I hope you understand, Ms. Yun." he finished.

Hiah went speechless and was obviously embarrassed as she also knew that she hadn't asked for my permission before coming here.

"Didn't you hear what hyung said? Leave." Taehyung said, who was occupying the couch. Such a rude statement felt so odd coming from the person who was always humble and respectful towards others. But after all, Taehyung hadn't been himself since Taraa had left. None of us had been.

"I don't understand how others says that you guys are really kind and friendly with everyone. Its just opposite." Hiah said, glancing at each one of us.

"Don't be such a hypocrite, Ms. Yun. You don't even like us, still you are not leaving. What exactly do you want?" Jin said, calmly.
