LONELY EYES || JJK

#08

As Jungkook presses his lips to the girls forehead one night, he asks for a favor. A request. A promise. To stay with him. And she agrees. Content, the bit closes his eyes and drifts to sleep.

A few hours later, when Jungkook woke up, Binna is gone. He throws the covers to the ground, letting them fall in a dull, coal colored heap. He searches the bed sheets to find any traces of her. Her shoes weren't by the door. None of her belongings were here. His mirror was shattered. It hadn't been like that when she was here.

He couldn't sleep without her. She had promised she would stay with hum forever.

She promised. So where did she go?

He drops to his knees because of the inescapable feeling of his head expanding and contracting rapidly. The bright embers within him were dying. And for the first time in weeks, a single tear traveled down his cheek. He clutched at his chest again, hopelessly attempting to ease the heartache he was feeling.

It doesn't work. In fact, it makes it worse. The beat of his heart rings through his ears, echoing from one side to the other.

He doesn't know what to do.

Without thinking, he runs. He runs out the door and into the streets, calling out for her. He looks frantically for that girl, shouting her name into the dark abyss. But the midnight sky swallows his cries.
