Test me| (Jungkook/Halla)

20- Dad

My eyes open slowly and I look around. Darkness- am I already home? I seat myself up and look out of the window-

It's Jungkook's room.

Right as I think that, Jungkook comes out the bathroom. Through the bathroom light, he can see me awake and I can only see his silhouette.

He makes his way to the drawer and puts his clothes in there, not saying a word.

I swallow harshly, remembering how late it is and shoot out of my bed. I stumble, as I'm still quite dizzy.

"Jungkook... I need to go home."

"You'll stay with me tonight", he mumbles, still not looking at me. My heart skips a beat.

"But-"

"No. You'll stay here, I'm not letting you spend the night at home. Not tonight."

He comes a little closer and is ready to lie down on his bed, when he sees me under the moonlight.

His breathing stops for a second and he steps a step closer to me.

"What-", I eye him but before I can finish my sentence, he lays his hand on my forehead and my cheek. I flinch at the sudden touch, my cheeks turning red.

His hands are cold.

He stays them there for a few seconds, staring intently into my eyes. I get shivers, as I look back up. He quickly looks away again.

"Also", he continues and pulls me on my shoulders down to the bed. "You have a fever."

His voice is only a whisper and I suck my breath in, as I see how close he is. I can feel his breath on my cheek. Then he just lays down next to me.

I want to protest further but somehow the darkness takes a hold of me and I drift off.

I don't want to think about tomorrow.

".... Dad?"

"Darling, shh, shhh, listen to me." I start crying as I see the familiar person in front of me. He looks just the same. The day he left.

"Dad..."

"Shhh... listen, bunny." Bunny.

"I don't have much time. I just came by here to tell you, I'm sorry."

I start sobbing as I stare into his dark eyes, that look just like mine. His suitcase still in his hand, like back then.

".... W-why did you l-leave...", I manage to get out as my sobs grow louder.

"Halla, I know you're confused. I'm really sorry. I didn't mean what I said back there. Halla..."

You didn't mean it?

"T-then w-why did you s-say it, Dad?" I push him away, standing up but my knees don't seem to carry me. I start shaking and he catches me, as I fall.

"NO!!"

"I-.... I just can't do this anymore!" I hear the screaming, loud in my ears. Leaning on the stairs, I catch a glimpse of mum and dad fighting.

My breath hitches when I see his suitcase and my eyes widen, surprised.

Where is he going?

"Why? Just tell me the reason, WHY!!"

I watch, as mom breaks down in tears, Dad is dead silent, trying to hold back his tears as well.
