Quote of the day :-  We all wear masks , illusions of what we want the world to see us as .

🤍🤍🤍

The doctor is sitting on the stool beside the same bed where that same female aka his best friend is lying still lifeless . He is just sitting there staring at her with blank expressions , remembering their past moments when they used to be happy .

Flashback:-

"Choi sara stop right this instant and give me back my lunch box " Mingyu shouts as the girl only giggles and keeps running around the garden in the campus with her best friend's lunch box in her hands .

"Oh gyu if you have that much strength to catch me then do it yourself " he rolls his eyes before running with speed of light to reach her which she is unaware of . Holding her wrist not so tightly , he pulls her towards himself who gasps as her figure collides with the hard chest . The moment freezes .

She was always so delicate and that fact only made him treat her with fragility and his treatment, his way of making her feel spacial and delicate always got the best of him and in no time he fell so in love with her to describe but his eyes always spoke and she knew . But unfortunately she never saw him any more than a best friend as she was madly in love with someone else , someone else he didn't know but she was planning to make him meet him , and that's how the love story died even before blooming .

When she made him meet the guy she loves , he never liked him at all and he even told her but she thought maybe he is saying all this out of jealousy and never took him seriously besides her love for the male had grown to the point she knew even if he will harm her , her heart was not gonna go to the path of hate for him at any cost .

And that's what exactly happened when they got married and he started abusing her in the name of loving her saying that he loves to see his lover in pain and she could only be there recieving everything he has to offer .

Mingyu saw everything with silent mouth and aching heart , he once had tried to report it to police but the girl begged her on her knees to not do so and he just couldn't after that . The three are still the same , the one abusing her , She still be accepting everything without any protest and him , just looking at the mess he makes out of her which is not pleasent in any shape and then restore her to life , everything is just same .

Present:-

A tear slips past his eyelashes and lands on his own hand as he recalls the past . Sara , his best friend , the love of his life is the one he is treating since almost a year just because her husband has abused her to mortality . He looks at her pale figure and is about to go out when his eyes catches the glimpse of something , She is moving her fingers .

He abruptly stands up and checks her pulse which he notes to be around 60 per minute much better than he always gets . He takes his stethoscope and starts checking her heartbeat , he can only smile through tears , his best friend is gaining back her life just because that psycho husband of hers has not abused her since last 2 weeks .

🤍🤍🤍

Tae , a pleading whimper leaves jungkook's clasped mouth almost inaudible but the male who is still sprawled on his own bed with his head thrown backwards , red liquid dripping down the expanse of his right spread out thigh onto the black silk sheets while the scalpel is still in his hand , obviously hears it due to the pin drop silence . He abruptly sits on the bed totally ignoring the hissing and painful cries his skin wants him to emit and looks at the male standing at his door with his wide shocked eyes staring right back at him .

Jungkook's heart is thumping in his chest as he steps back from the horrible scene he was frozen onto a few seconds back and finally turns around before entering his room and closing the door behind him totally ignoring his boyfriend calling him from behind .

Taehyung curses under his breath and starts cleaning his wound before he takes the bedsheet and throws it in the laundry and goes to bathroom to fresh and up . He will let jungkook have his own time to recover from the shock .

🤍🤍🤍

Jungkook sits on the floor by the edge of the bed with dried out tears , looking ahead in the space without blinking , Taehyung's words running through his head ,

"Look at yourself after opening your eyes , trust me your thigh will look so pathetic as it is a painfully pleasing gift to you Kim Taehyung from me for hurting my one and only baby love . You will remember this for the rest of your life " .

His mind is asking him a question continuosly and that is ,

Did he harm himself because he shouted on me ? If yes then why ?

But he doesn't got any answer . The images of the blood dripping down his thigh , the satisfied look his face had plastered , his hand holding that blood filled scalpel , him saying those words and his hazel eyes filled with some unknown emotions when he looked at jungkook , everything made jungkook feel sick to his stomach .

He is afraid , afraid to see taehyung again in that state , he knows that taehyung has not done this for the first time by the look of comfort he saw on him and he also knows that even if he tries to stop him , he will not , but it is scaring jungkook to face him cause at this point he is totally afraid to see taehyung again in that state . You see he loves the boy a lot and he has his own reasons and his own love was hurting himself just because he shouted on jungkook made him feel so sick that he wants to vomit out everything .

A knock on the door startles him as he gets goosebumps thinking that it may be taehyung but the voice following relaxes him .

Sir the dinner is ready , the voice of the maid relaxes him as he replies ,

I am coming noona , she hums and walks away as jungkook gathers himself up and goes to bathroom to wash his face . He knows he needs to face taehyung and he also knows , he is not so ready for it .

🤍🤍🤍

Taehyung is already at the dinning table sitting calmly waiting for jungkook to come . Mrs Jeon's food is already sent to her as she nowadays has restricted everyone from coming into her room to feed her including her own son that definitely hurt jungkook in ways but he shrugged it thinking to give his moon some space .

Taehyung's eyes lands on the figure walking down the stairs and he curses . Jungkook is looking way too adorable and sexy for him to not gawk . Taehyung checks him out from head to toe and licks his lips before the boy reaches him wearing that soft fluffy baby pink sweater and white shorts he wore when he went to meet taehyung .

He comes and sits in front of taehyung with his head hung low , taehyung narrows his eyes , it is not usual for jungkook to sit silently without even greeting him and giving him a kiss which eventually turns into make out session .

Hi there , taehyung decides to initiate the conversation as he guessed that maybe jungkook has got a little awkward after their encounter two hours back but the moment jungkook looks up to greet him and Taehyung's eyes catch the glimpse of fear lingering in them , his inner beast growls and he knows he just loves that specific fear lingering in his little one's eyes .
