(also, this part and the next one is called "confrontation," I've just split it into two parts with different names)
The next morning, Taehyung waits infront of Jungkook's house in order to confront him. However, his plans are soon foiled because he receives the following message:
english burden😒
me
hurry up, dude
i'm waiting upfront @ ur house
english burden
uhm, you can go on w/ out me
i'm going to b a lil late today
smth came up
seen
Taehyung finds is extremely suspicious that Jungkook is avoiding him. What's worse is that he's not entirely sure why he's so annoyed by that simple fact.
Could Jungkook have known that Taehyung was going to confront him? No, it can't be. No one could've told him; they were all in on it.
Then... could he be looking at me right now?
Taehyung looks up to the window that he assumes must be Jungkook's room and sees movement amoung the curtains.
No, Jungkook has no reason to avoid. No reason at all.
Except that Taehyung literally interrogated the living shit out of him yesterday. Taehyung really regrets that right now.
Idiot. Should've thought ahead Taehyung mentally face palms.
Regardless of Jungkook's pathetic avoidance tactic, he will confront Jungkook.
Taehyung goes to school without Jungkook, feeling odd walking to school by himself for the first time in months.
****
By now, it's been 3 hours since school has began and there is still no sign of Jungkook. Taehyung is worried Jungkook might not come, which means his confrontation plan might really be ruined.
Right as Taehyung is about to text Jungkook about his whereabouts, Jungkook arrives.
He's wearing a hoodie, once again in warm weather, with a new addition of, is that sunglasses?
Yep. The Jeon Jungkook willingly put on something that would draw attention to himself.
This is so unlike him, I wonder what's up. Taehyung thinks.
Jungkook arrived an hour before lunch, which means Taehyung can confront him after this math class.
As Jungkook hands Mr. Hart his late slip, Taehyung sees part of his deathly pale hand.
"Welcome, Jungkook. Didn't think you were going to show." Mr. Hart jokes, making the class laugh in their hushed silence.
"Er, yeah. I- I just had something come up." Jungkook says nervously, looking down.
As usual, Jungkook is uncomfortable with the class's attention on him. Taehyung ignored the urge to go up to Jungkook and cover him from the class.
"What's with the glasses, Mr. Jeon?" Mr. Hart questions, curious.
At this, Jungkook looks up, and Taehyung now has a clear view of Jungkook's truly pale skin. Taehyung gasps internally.
"I- uhm, I can't look at light today, sir." Jungkook says in a quiet voice. "I'm trying a new perscription of eye drops, and the doctor said to avoid light." he explains.
Mr. Hart seems to be satisfied with the explanation as he says "Alright. Just make sure to get a note from your doctor next time for cases like this. Have a seat."
