Child Of Stardust || TAEKOOK ✔️

11

7 months. 7 fucking months without a single trace of Jungkook. I've tried looking for him everywhere possible but it felt like he just vanished into the thin air. As if...he never existed even.

I was surprised to find absolutely nothing about him in university's data. Like he just appeared out of nowhere and then simply disappeared like that. There was not even a single information about him.

In this 7 months I wanted nothing but craved for his presence only. At times I felt like I wouldn't survive if I can't feel him near me. His fragrance was intoxicating that lingered throughout the pregnancy. I could bet it was all because of this certainly unnatural pregnancy.

Definitely. Otherwise why would I crave for him?

I started wearing really baggy cloths after 4 months even though the bump was smaller than usual. Even at home I wore those clothes and covered myself with thin duvets..just to feel safe? The fear of getting caught somehow was always there and I didn't wanna avoid that fear just consoling myself. Because there was high chances of that fear becoming real.

The last time I met Hara was like 6 months ago and Jimin followed after 2 months. So basically I barely had any human interaction for like 4 months other than grocery shopping once in a while which I was quite thankful for. I had no intention to be found out by anyone.

The virus outbreak was very serious now. And I felt horrible for that. I didn't have to try harder to hide for the sake of this but on the other hand, people were dying out there and somehow I felt way too poignant to be a human.

Hara was there helping out people and for that we could barely talk in calls also. But that didn't stop her from sending me money even though I told her thousand times not to. She was like that. On the other hand, Jimin called me more than 10 times a week just to make sure I'm doing perfectly fine and reminded me  not to go out often.

Everything looked fine on the surface. But I couldn't keep my mind away from this particular incident. The white eyed creatures followed me several times. I was scared as fuck . I wouldn't deny that. But after some times I got used to it. I even tried to follow them back just to get any information about Jungkook. However they disappeared everytime I tried to do so. That just frustrated me more.

I didn't know if they were sent by Jungkook or someone else but surely there was a particular reason they were behind me and I had no idea if it was for the baby.

The baby. My baby. Even though their occurrence in my life was quite unnatural and unusual, I had grown much fondness towards them. I didn't know the gender for I had no medical check up till now but I was aware that my baby was growing healthy since they always let me know they're here with me with the sudden kicks.

Just like now, even with a puffy, red and tear stained face I was smiling because my baby was letting me know that they didn't like me crying or sad, just because I was missing their other dad.

I was waiting at the bus stop. I was late again well it was not my fault since our dear professor decided to have an extra class today. Hopefully Mr. Choi wouldn't kick me out from work.

"Son..can you help me please?"

An old lady approached me. She looked tensed for some reason and not well health-wise. She looked harmless of course.

"Yes..how can I help you?"

"Can you..can you give me some money please? I-I lost my purse and I've to travel far.."

Oh no. Poor lady. I felt sad for her and immediately searched through my bag to find a little amount of money. I usually didn't travel with a lot since it felt unnecessary.

"I hope this is okay for you.. I've this much only.."

I gave whatever I had with me which I believed was enough for bus tickets.

"Thank you so much son. May God bless you"

And she left with a smile which I returned. But now the problem was I didn't have any money left and I forgot to bring my bus card too.

Fuck.

I was already late. Gemma's Diabolo would definitely fire me today.

"You do realise, that women was lying to you?"

I got startled by the sudden voice but it felt familiar so I turned to see the owner of that deep voice.

And yes.

He was familiar.

"I- what?"

Jungkook came closer to stand beside me. I remembered his name because he was the hot topic of the class for some time when he got admission not more than 2 months ago.

He was a quite one and kept his business upto himself. So, he was removed from the hot topic faster than he became one. But I couldn't stop having this teeny tiny crush I developed on him in the mean time. Well I avoided that at least I tried to.

"The women, you just gave money to, was lying to you. She just ran towards the shopping mall nearby."

He didn't look at me directly and I didn't have the nerve to stare at him.

"Um well..she m-maybe needed the money.."

My voice was low against my will. I had places to go and I had to get the money somehow

"Um c-can you please lend me some m-money? I promise I'll give it back tomorrow!"

I was praying he would just lend me the money. Wait.

Why would he do that? It's not like he knew me or something.

"I-"

"Keep it. No need to give it back. I don't want you near me in university or class."

He left.

I was dumbfounded.

What did he mean by that?! Did I stink or something?!

Wait

He knew I was in his class.

Oh my God

HE KNEW I WAS IN HIS CLASS!

Calm down your ass Kim Taehyung. He literally just insulted you.

I couldn't stop my mind from revisiting the past memories and missed Jungkook more. However all my thoughts came to a hault when the doorbell suddenly rang.

I wasn't expecting anyone specially in this situation. Who it could be then?

I wasn't able to move when I saw who it was.

"W-who are you?"

My breathe hitched the moment he looked at me with his completely black eyes, not a single trace of white in them
