Author's POV

The light rays crept through the blinds of his window, shedding light on his countenance and making him realise it is morning...that another day had already begun...and he didn't sleep all night yet again. He pulled himself off from the duvet which was covering his petite frame, revealing the wet patch on his pillow where he laid last night while endless tears poured from his doe like eyes. 'I should lose some weight', seeing his own reflection in the mirror he thought. He took a bath and wore his all time favourite white t-shirt with black pants and black shoes. "8:24am....mm should pack up for uni" mumbled Jungkook in his sleepy voice. He picked a glass of milk which was kept on the kitchen counter right next to his wardrobe and wore his reading glasses all ready to leave the single room apartment to start a new day...

Name? Jungkook, Jeon Jungkook...this was the name given to him at the Orphanage where he lived for 18 years. After finally being old enough to live independently, he left the orphanage and worked a part time job that helped him make just enough money to pay the monthly rent for his room..his home.

He had no friends. He faced lot of troubles as he was growing up...starting from living in an orphanage to getting beaten up in alleys for just being a weak young boy. He had no clue where he came from. The orphanage was all that still remains from his memories or one could say 'Childhood' . Jungkook had always been the quiet and observing type of a guy. He knows, sees and understands everything that happens in front of his eyes. Even at school whenever he got bullied...he knew that it was wrong and that the bullies should be punished for the same. But he realised that it would only cause more trouble for him in the future, catching up fights with the bad boys of his school.

Walking on the footpath Jungkook suddenly felt a tug on his lower end of t-shirt. "Oh Simon!...good morning" a small kid wearing a torn baby blue shirt pairing up with black shorts reaching upto his muddy knees ...he had perfect round and black eyes with hair all tosseld on his forehead covering his sparkly orbes."Will you come to the park again after school, Jungkook?" Asked the kid to the tall and skinny guy "I don't know Simon... depends on the day, if I can make it out alive from school and work" Jungkook said while shrugging lightly. "Don't say stuff like that...who is going to buy me buns if you die?!"  with his eyes going wider and slightly glossy Simon started thinking about the worst that could happen."oh you little minx...bun is all that you care about isn't it!!" Jungkook said faking sadness in his tone. "Noo!! That is not what I meant Jungkook...you also know that you are the only person who cares about me. I was just worried-"..the little boy  started wiggling side to side with both his hands on his back holding each other and eyes facing the feet almost as if he was getting scolded by his brother. "Hah! Alright kid..I will be there by 6pm. If it gets late then go back home and do not wait for me all alone understood Simon?" .."YES! YOU ARE THE BEST KOOK LOVE YOU". "Be careful!!" seeing the child run away Jungkook yelled while slightly chuckling to himself.

No one in this world mattered soo much for Jungkook than Simon. A pure kid with the toughest childhood. He did have parents but they didn't care about him at all. His mom was a prostitute and father an alcoholic. They didn't pay attention to their child and left their tiny house everyday and came back late night. Simon obviously understood at a young age, the cruelty of this world when he saw his father rape a young girl in front of his eyes. For a kid, it was a nightmare that could never be forgotten and get haunted by every night, but that was when Simon found Jungkook...in the park sitting peacefully under an apple tree and making sketches of the sky. They both were young when they first met, Simon was just 5 and Jungkook was only 15.
