[BTS V] Coma

"It was at the café." He clasps his hands together. We were sitting at the park bench and we sat so closely to each other.

"I saw your sister working and I sort of fell in love at first sight. Ever since that day I came by almost every day and she would always take orders from me."

"I didn't know she was our senior. So when I found out, I introduced myself formally. In school, we use to hang out at the rooftop. After months of being friend zoned, I decided to hit the first base so I did. And we sort of dated."

"We dated secretly for years. She didn't want to tell anyone. She told me she had a sister. But she didn't told me it was you."

Why?

"But one day I received a call from your sister's friend. She got into a car accident. And-" I can tell he doesn't want to continue. I grab his hands and put in both my hands.

"Don't. You don't have to." I say.

"I thought I was the only one mourning over her death. But you got it worse and I'm so fucking selfish to think that way." He shakes his head and looks down into his laps.

"Who was the one who called you anyways? My sister friend, who was she?"

Taehyung looks up and blinks a several times. "Jaena."

Jaena. How is she connected to my sister?

"Regardless, I should have told you."

I squeeze his hands gently, "If I were you, I'd understand how hard it is to tell my boyfriend that I'm dating his dead sister." I say and he laughs weakly. The wind blows the hair out of my face and I shut my eyes close.

"Do you miss her?" I ask.

"Sometimes. You?"

"Everyday."

We walk under the moonlight and his humming to a Crush song this time. We swing our hands together and I smile at how he rubs his thumb over my hands.

"We're here!" he says.

"Do you want to come in?"

"Nah, my girl needs her sleep. Doesn't she?" he tickles the spot under my chin and I giggle.

"Araseo. I'll go in then?"

He nods and I tip on my toe, pecking him on the lips. I can feel his lips curling into a smile.

"Anneyong." I say, waving him goodbye. He stays rooted to the ground and gestures for me to go in first. I walk in my home and take a glimpse of Tae Tae before shutting the door.

Just then, I hear a shout from outside, "Saranghaeyo Yujin! Sleep well!"

Oh my god this alien! I laugh to myself and slap my cheeks to make sure I'm still not dreaming.

Maybe it's true. I shouldn't care so much. We love each other. And I trust him. I know he isn't going to take advantage of me. I trust him.

Just then my phone rings and it's a call from Jaena. Nice.

Me: Yobusaeyo?

J: Yujin can you come to the convenient store near the street?

She sounds like she's crying.

Me: Why?

J: My parents...they're going to divorce. I don't have anyone to talk to right now.

Me: Oh god. Uhm I'll be right there! Hold on okay?

I run out of my home and make my way into the convenient store. But she wasn't there. I called her and she picks up after 2 rings.

Me: Where are you?

J: Walk through the alleyway.

She says while hiccupping. She must be crying for ages. I follow her instructions and walk through the dark alleyway and finally reach the end. It was a street I didn't recognized. Almost empty. Across the road I see Jaena in her pajamas and a pile of tissues in one hand. Her eyes are red from crying.

I heave a sigh of relieve to see she's all in one piece. I press the phone to my ear,

Me: Stay still I'll walk over.

I end the call and shove the phone into my pocket.

I turn left and right to make sure there wasn't any cars ahead before crossing the road. I walk steadily towards her but I suddenly stop for a moment at her expression; she's smiling.

Before I can even take a step ahead, I hear screeching sound of car tires as if a car was speeding right at me.

It was.

And the car is so fast.

It was too fast.
