Chapter 16

————Jungkook————

After playing football, I returned to the store. The other guys were all locals and had families, but I was the only one who lived in the store.

It was already dark, I was sweating all over, and didn't want to move, so I just lay on the narrow bed. I looked up at the ceiling, and the image of Lisa appeared in my mind.

She wore my hat, lowered her head, and said nothing.

It turns out that the thorny woman on the boat could be like this. Suddenly, I felt like laughing.

Just at this moment, Xiaohua opened the door curtain and walked into the small compartment. Seeing the smile on my face, he also smiled obscenely: "Brother Jeon, are you thinking about women?"

This kid is very smart.

I ignored him and lit a cigarette. He sat down on the bed and said, "Why do I feel like there's something ambiguous between you and that Miss Lisa?"

I asked, "What's the ambiguity?"

He thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to explain. It's just that when you two get together, it feels unclear."

I cursed, "Fuck you."

But he got even more excited and said, "Hey, she wants you to wash her car, too?"

I took a long puff of the cigarette, feeling the slightly spicy and bitter taste, and said, "So what? If she dares to order me, why shouldn't I respond?"

Xiao Hua: "Oh my brother, you are awesome! I think Miss Lisa will be completely taken advantage of by you."

I stopped joking with him. My attention was drawn to the view outside the window.

The street lights were on, illuminating the empty space. I don't know when a flock of birds landed there, about ten of them, all black. A few of them looked at me through the window, their brown eyes shining faintly.

I stared at them too.

Xiao Hua asked: "Brother Jeon, what's wrong? What are you looking at?"

I have seen these birds before.

Only seen it in one place.

On that boat.

I ran out of the store and heard the sound of flapping wings in the air, and they flew away in all directions.

There is one thing I have never told anyone. Ever since I left that boat, I feel like there is a vague hole in my heart, but I can't remember what I have overlooked or forgotten. I just think about it from time to time, feeling lost and confused.

And now, those birds, as if still carrying the fishy smell of the river water, flapped their wings and passed by the cave.

An inexplicable strong intuition drove me to chase the last few birds.

——

This happened after I had chased him out of half the city.

It was already dark. I ran through the busy streets and the winding alleys, and finally arrived at a small road by the river. More and more birds gathered in the sky. I didn't know where they came from, but there were probably more than a hundred of them. They circled in the moonlit sky, like a group of premeditated black shadows.

I was sweating profusely from running, so I stopped by a low wall to rest. Suddenly, the birds seemed to have gathered, one of them made a crisp cry, and then all the birds scattered and flew into the night.

"Fuck." I cursed.

Just as I was about to chase the bird that seemed to be the leader, a figure suddenly jumped out from the other side of the wall. I was immediately startled and broke out in a cold sweat, and I felt every pore in my body turned cold. I couldn't dodge in time.

The person bumped into my arms, and I heard her clearly gasp. I grabbed her arms and held her down. She tried to break free, but I grabbed her body and pinned her against the wall, pinning her down.

Her body was trembling slightly.

There was a sparse light from the street lamps above my head. I saw her face and froze.
