Gone Forever

6 / Coldness

Now this year was our first year of university. 

I was 19 this year, 

clueless of what I wanted to do in the future. 

This year was when I met her, 

Jeongguk's girl friend. 

Her name is Hye Jin.  

Lee Hye Jin. 

She was 3 months younger than me, 

and she was a very confident girl. 

She was thin,

and very tall, about 5'6. 

On the other hand, 

I was quite a petite framed girl, 

only 5'1.

She had very unique eyes, 

which kind of made her look like she was angry about something all the time. 

I didn't really like her from the beginning because she was always surrounding us, 

but slowly, I began to get closer with her. 

We had common interests, 

we liked reading, sleeping, and even the foods we liked eating were the same. 

We instantly became best friends. 

I didn't think we'd ever become such good friends. 

We had doubled dates, her and Jeongguk, and Yoongi and I. 

But even though we had our double dates, and occasional hang outs as a group of four, 

something didn't seem right. 

Jeonggukk still hadn't been talking to me as much. 

The only things we would say to each other were the simple words such as 'hi' and 'bye.' 

Sometimes we'd ask each other a few things, like where Yoongi is. 

And that was all. 

I hated how this was happening. 

I wanted to talk to him, 

and ask for an explanation from him. 

But I wasn't brave enough to ask him. 

Although he had changed me a lot, 

I was still really weak,

unlike Hye Jin. 

It felt like Jeongguk was never happy, 

he never smiled, 

even when he was surrounded by Bangtan, his girl friend and Yoongi and I. 

Well, even when he did smile, I could tell that he was only forcing himself to fake a smile, and that deep down inside of his heart, he was unhappy. 

I didn't know why,

but I wanted to know why. 

"Jeongguk," I breathed out and grabbed his hand, " why are you being like this?" 

He didn't say anything. 

He just stared at me in the eyes, 

I remember his eyes looking lost and lonely. 

Something was going on in his life, 

but he couldn't tell us what. 

"Jeongguk, tell me what's wrong," I sighed, stopping him from escaping again, "I know something's up, you've been like this ever since last year!" 

"It's none of your business." He bluntly said to me as he pushed my hand off of his arms and walked away. 

I'd never seen him like that before. 

It was the first time I had seen Jeongguk act that way, 

and I was determined to find out why he was acting in that way. 

So I followed him everywhere,

and tried to talk to him as much as possible...
