Am I Invisible ?

chapter (III)

Few days later-------------------------------

With Jungkook (At university)

Miss Bae:- Tomorrow there is counseling for all of you, so come with your parents.

Students:- Okay, Miss.

Miss Bae:- Alright, let’s start.

At the canteen---------------------------------

Jungkook was eating alone because his friends were absent. Suddenly, someone dropped a juice can on him.

Max:- Oh! I am sorry to ruin your stitched shirt.

Jungkook:- (feeling a mix of frustration and sadness) You- (cut off by Max)

Max:- Anyways, how are you gonna come and with whom? Because you don’t have parents. Well, they are lucky they got rid of you.

Jungkook:- (feeling a surge of anger and hurt) You— (cut off by the ring of the bell indicating that lunch break is over) My brothers will come, so you don’t worry too much about me. (leaves)

Max:- He is speaking too much, huh! Kim Jungkook, you will see the real me. (smirk) (leaves)

As usual, the classes went on.

At Kim’s Central Hospital

Jin:- Taehyung again made a mistake. This boy is not gonna learn easily, right? (calls someone) Taehyung, come to my cabin now.

Taehyung:- May I come in Mr. Kim?

Jin:- Hmm. (Taehyung enters) What is this? (showing the paperwork)

Taehyung:- (silent, feeling a mix of shame and frustration)

Jin:- Kim freaking Taehyung, tell me what’s this? How many mistakes have you made? Are you sure you are a graduated student, huh?

Taehyung:- S-s-sorry, sir.

Jin:- You surely can’t do anything. Just leave and make this file again.

Taehyung:- Sorry. (leaves after picking up the files, feeling defeated)

Back at the university
—————————————

Jungkook was waiting for his brother to arrive, but then Max came along with some of his friends.

Max:- Oh, a useless is waiting for his brothers. But why are they not here yet? Well, they also hate a useless brother who is nothing but a burden. (smirked) (leaves)

Jungkook got angry a bit, but when he thought about those words, he felt a deep sadness. “Do my parents really hate me? Do my brothers feel the same way?” He couldn’t help but feel sensitive and overwhelmed by these thoughts. His chain of thoughts broke when he felt a car stop in front of him. He looked and saw his Tae hyung’s car.

Jungkook:- (gets in the car, feeling a mix of relief and lingering sadness)

Taehyung:- How was the day, Jungkook?

Jungkook:- Great, hyung. (trying to sound cheerful but failing)

Taehyung:- What happened, Kookie

Jungkook:- Nothing, hyung. (trying to hide his feelings)

Taehyung understood that something had happened but decided not to press further at that moment.

Taehyung:- (continued driving, feeling concerned for his younger brother)

After some time, Taehyung stopped the car in front of an ice cream parlor.

Taehyung:- Let’s go, Jungkook.
