Next Morning...
When you wake up, you find yourself completely wrapped in his arms. Your heartbeat accelerated when you sensed the closeness between you both, but you felt safe in his arms. You admired his face, he looked angelic but your mind reminded you to stay away from him. But at the same time, your heart says to stay with him. That's when you remembered how he dragged you, how he scared you. Of course, you don't want to fall in love with anyone because of how everything happened and is happening in your life. You know your decision of not falling in love with anyone because whatever it will be, it will only get over and in return, there will be nothing but pain.
You slightly push him, and that's when a random wave of fear hits you... You have to run away from him no matter what!! You want a normal life, you want to feel free, and you don't want to be caged in this life.
If I can't escape from this house, then I will escape from this body!!!
Several thoughts are running in your mind making your mind blank. You don't feel anything, your eyes feel heavy as if you're about to cry. Some people might think this as overreacting, but the one who goes through this knows better how it feels.
You slowly stood up and the last night's incident flashed in your mind. Somewhere you know he cares about you but you don't want him to. You just feel like a burden on him that's the reason why you never tell him anything. You tried to walk but suddenly Jimin opened his eyes. When you sensed it, you ran and tried to lock yourself in the almirah but...
"Princess is that you??! Come out!! Don't be afraid I will not hurt you, princess. Please look I am worried for you. Let's have breakfast. You must be hungry!"
You started crying a little but still gathered some courage and spat, "G-go aw-away pl-ease!!"
"Y/n! Don't be stubborn I will never hurt you!! Did I ever try to hurt you!!? "I SAID JUST GO AWAY!!!!!!"
Jimin tried to control his temper with a deep sigh and maintained his calm voice while saying, "Okay I am going! But please don't do anything stupid. Come down we will have breakfast!"
You heard some footsteps which means he went away. You then slowly came out of the almirah and wiped your tears with a sigh, but he being stubborn and smart, back-hugged you from behind. Despite all your shoutings, he uplifts you by your waist and puts you on his shoulders.
"J-Jimin p-put me d-down!" "Y/n you're so underweight!!" "J-ust put m-me down I-I s-said!!"
He then takes his steps toward the bed puts you down, stands in front of you, and says, "How many times do you skip your meals Y/n?? And how many times have you lied to me? Am I not trustworthy?"
When he got no reply from your side, he continued, "I am talking to you answer me Y/n!"
"I am hungry" Jimin closed his eyes getting a little angry by your behaviour.
"Come," He said as he took hold of your hands and slowly took you to the washroom. He washed your face and helped brush your teeth. "I-I c-cam do i-it on m-my o-own!!"
"Hmm, I know. I am going out, take a shower quick! I already kept your clothes there and yeah! This is the ointment, apply it on your scars it will not hurt afterward." You don't remember when he saw your scars as you only had some part but still managed to nod your head in tiny.
Am I the stupid one or is he??
This thought crossed your mind. Your mind is telling you to kill yourself, that you have a chance as no one will care if you're alive or not. He just wants you to fill the gap of a wife, otherwise nothing more. You're just a burden on him. You don't deserve this care as you're just wasting his money. First, he wasted his money on your studies, and now the therapy. You are just a curse who killed your mom, and soon you'll also become the reason for his loss.
Just do it Y/n!! Don't you know this is the reality? I am going crazy but yeah! I know that's the only bitter truth, which seemed to sweat to me to digest!!
You then examined your surroundings, trying to find any blade or other sharp object but when you found none, you smiled at yourself.
Wow!!! Now I don't even have a right to my own body! This world is neither letting me live peacefully, nor letting me die!! God! Why're you playing this game with me??? Is it that entertaining to you that you don't want to finish it??
Finally giving up, you just strip yourself and get inside the bathtub. Well!! This is a relaxing feeling!!! You exclaimed in your mind, enjoying the feel. Your mind just stopped thinking and that's what you needed the most. You took the soap and started rubbing it on your skin, which eventually resulted in your scars and burn marks turning red, but you could care less or you could say it didn't bother you much in contrast to the amount of pain your heart bore.
After not so quick shower, you step outside the bathtub to dry yourself. Then you took the ointment and started applying it, but your small hands couldn't cover up your back area and that's when an idea popped up in your mind.
"JIMIN!!! JIMIN!!!!!!" You shout out his name and after getting a positive response from him, you continue, "JIMIN HELP ME IN APPLYING THE OINTMENT ON MY BACK!!!!!!!!!!" "SHOULD I SEND A MAID???!!!!!" "NO YOU COME INSIDE!!!!!!!!!!!"
He then steps inside and you get nervous after sensing him entering. You turned around to face him, only to see his closed eyes and face turned to the opposite side.
"C-come cl-closer" He started coming closer to you and when the distance between you two seemed to decrease, you said, "Open your eyes"
"Why?" "Don't you want to see how ugly I am? Don't you want to know how disgusting your so-called wife is??"
Jimin opened his eyes hearing you but he didn't break the intense eye contact you both shared, might be for the first time!
"You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen! I love you and I don't care about your body, I love your soul. Now give me the ointment" He said looking down into your eyes, which scared you but you maintained yourself and handed him the ointment.
"Should I close my eyes?" "No! I want you to see it" "You can't change my opinion no matter what Y/n!" He said, but the fact you couldn't deny that his sentence made you feel good, it provided you a sense of relief which you never felt. You turn around and you can feel his breath on your neck. He then applied the ointment on your scars and when his cold fingers touched your hot body and scars, you hissed in pain.
"S-sorry!!" He mumbled while applying the ointment and left immediately after completing it.
You sat in the bathtub, trying to catch your breath. This human is crazy for sure!!! Slowly, you put on your clothes and step out, finding him sitting on the bed with a red face, and you know the reason pretty well. He stood up after seeing you and said, "Let's fo you're hungry!" You nodded and with that, both of you stepped downstairs.
