WAR OF LOVE ~JJK

PART 51

"I have to tell you something" she whispered softly.

Jungkook's expression turned serious, his eyes searching hers intently. He could sense that whatever she was about to say was important.

Jungkook: "Tell me. You can say anything, you know that."

His hold on her loosened a bit, allowing her some space to speak comfortably.

"Mom called yesterday and she said dad, her and my brother wants me to come home for some days .. they are missing me"

Jungkook's eyes widened a bit at her words. He immediately tensed up, his expression becoming serious and protective.

Jungkook: "Wait, wait... They want you to go home? For how long?"

"For around a week ?"

Jungkook's grip on yn tightened a bit, his muscles tensing more. The idea of her leaving, even for a week, clearly didn't sit well with him. His voice was strained when he spoke.

Jungkook: "A week? That's... a long time."

"I'll be back till next weekend".

Jungkook's jaw tightened, and he looked at her with a mix of worry and reluctance. A week felt like an eternity to him, and the thought of being separated from her for that long made his chest ache.

Jungkook: "I... I understand. It's family, and they probably miss you. But..."

He paused, trying to gather his thoughts.

He took a deep breath before continuing, his eyes locking onto hers. His voice was a mixture of concern and possessiveness.

Jungkook: "But I don't want to let you go. I don't want to be apart from you for that long."

She caressed his cheeks .. "just one week koo.. I'll be back soon promise"..

Jungkook leaned into her touch, his eyes closing briefly as he savored the feeling of her fingers against his skin. He desperately wanted to pull her closer, to hold onto her and never let go.

Jungkook: "One week... promise me you'll be back. And promise me you'll be safe, alright?"

His voice was a little hoarse with emotion, the thought of her leaving clearly affecting him more than he wanted to admit.

"I will be promise". She murmured.

Jungkook nodded, his jaw still clenched as he fought to keep his emotions in check. The thought of her being away from him, even for a week, was like a dagger to his heart.

Jungkook: "I trust you. But I'll worry about you every single day while you're gone, you know that?"

He took her hand in his, gently rubbing his thumb over her knuckles, as if to commit the feel of her skin to memory.

"I'll text you everyday hmm .. we will talk on video call at night."

Jungkook nodded again, a small, forced smile appearing on his face. He squeezed her hand gently, his grip firm.

Jungkook: "Yeah, that's... that's good. We can talk everyday. Nightly video calls. Okay."

There was a hint of reluctance in his voice, the thought of relying on digital communication less than ideal for him. But he understood that he had no choice in the matter.

"My bestie will come to pick me up tomorrow morning .. she'll be going with me."

Jungkook: "Your bestie... right. She'll be going with you. So, you'll have company during the trip, that's... that's good."
