Three Options [JINKOOK]

Chapter 9

Let's make a change in the point of view, okay?

Jungkook p.o.v

I was scared. Scared to death.

I knew Taehyung wasn't some ordinary person from the very beginning. He was quite easy to read and also hard to read at the same time. Doesn't make sense.

I fell for him a long time ago, like a stupid rat running into a mouse trap without knowing what was waiting for him at the end. Couldn't help myself, now could I? Not when he said those sweetest words I've never heard from someone in my life. Convincing. Promising. Make you wanna believe them so badly. But the truth dawned upon me months later. He didn't care about me or anyone else. Not even his own brother mattered to him.

Kim Seokjin on other hand was an epitome of a god. He was different. Can't even be compared to a monster like Taehyung.

And he's the only reason which kept me from leaving the asshole. I loved him. I loved him so hard that I felt like I could endure any kind of pain or humiliation for his sake. So I stick with Taehyung without any shame, hoping one day he'd ask me out. But I was wrong. Jin hyung wasn't some opportunist, who'd take advantage of his brother's miserable boyfriend. But he genuinely cared about me. Talked me into breaking up with Taehyung while he's away fooling around with chicks downtown. Tried to convince me that he's not the one for me. But I refused to leave Taehyung cuz leaving him meant leaving Jin hyung. So I stayed. Stayed like blind man who'd dropped his stick in the darkness.

Now Taehyung had tried to rape me. It wasn't like he hasn't used me for his sexual desires before but this time, it was different. He was scarier and crazier. I almost lost my voice when he stormed into my house with a fuming look and dragged me into my room like a dog. I thrashed against his hold and screamed but I was physically weaker than him. He pressed his palm on my mouth harshly and threatened to kill Jin hyung if I don't cooperate with him. And that made me go all silent. He told me that Jin hyung had finally crossed his boundary lines and was going to pay for it.

While I was being tied to my own bed naked, I was thinking only about one person. Jin hyung. The man who'd been nothing but kind to me. What could he possibly have done to upset Taehyung?

Maybe he finally had the courage to confront Taehyung about his bad deeds unlike me. Maybe that's what Taehyung was mad about.

I silently prayed for myself and Jin hyung while he face timed his hyung, asking him to beg. And he did. I closed my eyes tight, unable to bear his broken voice. I didn't know what happened between them but he begged for my life.

It was over in a minute or two but it sure left a huge scar inside me which I knew would never heal.

I hugged my knees tigher, recalling the memory. It made me burn from head to toe. I could still feel his hands ripping off my clothes and pressing me against the mattress. I cried silently, my back vibrating against the wall.

Then I heard my door bell go off, again. I froze in immense fear, as I snapped my head up. It rang once again, urgently. I felt myself starting to hyperventilate. I wasn't ready for another torture.

Then I heard a voice I would recognize anywhere in this world, behind the door.

"J-Jungkookie, open up!!"

I didn't even care about the ragged clothes I was wearing. I didn't care about the gash on my face or the tear stains or the snot. I dashed towards the door and swung it open with my whole strength.

Jin hyung was standing there, looking like a mess. His hair was disheveled and eyes were bloodshot. And he was shaking, with tears running down his face.
