The Crow (Kim Taehyung Hybrid Au)

chapter 15

"Night's Cry."

"Mirae?" A little voice began to call amidst the darkness that surrounded her, Mirae looked around in confusion.

'It's so cold here.'—She thought.

"Mirae." The voice called out again, this time in a form of a little whisper that sent shivers down her spine and pain through her body. Suddenly those same images began to replay in front of her.

She couldn't cry.
She couldn't scream.
She couldn't ask for help.
Everything was silent.

Mirae opened her eyes, meeting the dark ceiling while the soft darkness of the moon layed itself across the room. She began to cry.

She felt so disgusted.
So ashamed.
So...tired.

It felt as if everything she was holding back was currently spilling out of her all at once, her chest felt heavy and her head was pounding like crazy. She groaned and made her way towards the kitchen to grab some medication for the headache. When she was finished, she went back to the small living room.

As she walked in she saw Taehyung towering the couch while looking for her, his head immediately shot around towards her direction when hearing the nearby footsteps

"What are you--" He gasped and reached out to wrap his arms around her.

"Don't you fucking touch me." She shakily shouted while stepping away from him with her hands in front of her body, Taehyung frowned and gulped nervously as he stared down at her.

"What... What's wrong?" He finally spoke up when noticing how shiny her eyes looked under the darkness.

Mirae sighed as tears began to stream down her face, she quickly wiped them away and walked past the hybrid and sat down on the couch while hugging her pillow tightly against her chest.

"Kang?" Taehyung almost whispered, staring her down while waiting for an answer.

"Go to sleep." Mirae slurred.

"I...I don't want to." Taehyung said.

Mirae couldn't help but flinch when the hybrid suddenly knelt down next to the couch.
"What are you doing?" She frowned.

"Why are you crying? Is it me?" He asked, tears forming inside his eyes, Mirae couldn't help but sigh again and making more tears stream down her face.

'I'm fucking tired.'— She thought.

"Kang?--"
"I was fucking assaulted by a man, of course I'm fucking miserable!" She shouted through the stress making the poor hybrid flinch with fear.

She frowned.
Mirae never saw him flinch before, and he was crying again. The light was green.

"I'm..." Sobs began to build up inside her throat, she quickly hid her face against the pillow and held her knees close to her chest.
"I'm so sorry..." She breathed.

"I'm sorry too." Taehyung sniffled.

Mirae didn't say anything back, the crying was too much for her to even form a word. Poor Taehyung could only stare at her whilst she cried against the soft fabric of her pillow.
