listen to New Empire- A little Braver while reading :)
"go."
"i'll think about going."
i stayed back in the dorm while they all left to join dahyun at the airport.
every minute that passed by, was a million thoughts running in my mind.
should i go?
should i not?
it was 11:25pm and her flight leaves at 12:00am.
there was still time for me to think.
but was it really necessary to waste so much time?
my phone exploded with many calls and messages that came from the boys, including dahyun. as much as i didn't want to keep her waiting, i felt like a coward. my heart tells me to go, but my mind tells me to stay. it's quite overwhelming because it use to be the opposite.
i remembered about the advice that i received a lot and it was to follow my heart.
and my heart tells me to go.
and that's what i'll do.
maybe i'll follow my heart for the first time, i thought to myself.
i hurriedly ran to my room and changed for a short time before running out of the dorm to catch a taxi. i regret not coming along because there were no taxi's in sight.
my heart started pounding nervously while i panicked.
i started running and running to wherever i could find one, not caring if i was already out of breaths or tired.
If you love someone, tired is not in your dictionary.
i fought over the pain and heaves that came out of my mouth every second.
distance was all it mattered and there's no way in hell that i'll stop my foot from running at this certain time. the wind gushing through my face, welcoming me with extreme cold.
my eyes glint up at the sight of a taxi coming to my direction. i motioned it to stop while i ran towards it, opening the door in swift.
"take me to the airport please." i say.
it was a long ride and it was nearing to her departure and i was not even near.
each minute that passed by makes me feel anxious and edgy, thinking that i wont make it.
suddenly, the car stopped and the driver had an upset look on his face.
"sir, i'm afraid it'll take awhile to fix this." he says,
my eyes widened as i looked around at where we were.
"is the airport near?" i ask,
he stops to think,
"ah, yes yes. it's just straight ahead, waeyo?"
"my girlf- my friend is leaving soon and i need to tell her something important." i say, quickly getting myself out of the car.
"go get her." he says with a sheepish smile,
i give a slight wave, handing over the money before running ahead.
sweat trickled down the side of my face, still welcomed by the cold breezy weather.
the airport was already in sight and i fastened my pace.
i got closer and closer, my heart pounding rapidly.
and i made it inside.
i looked around, pacing back and fourth, heading to every direction until i caught a glimpse of taehyung and hoseok.
i run towards them with heavy breaths, finally getting their attention.
"you finally made it."
"she's going soon."
"she's over-"
i didn't let taehyung finish his words as i already saw the girl that i've been longing to see.
she stood there while her back faced me, looking lost with such despair of sorrow surrounding her.
i ran ahead to her direction and stopped just behind her.
a small smile pursed on my lips while i brought my hand to cover her eyes, startling her as she spun around, greeting me with that broad smile of hers.
"jungkook, you came..." she spoke in a voice she couldn't decipher,
" how can i not?" i say in a calm and unhurried tone.
i pull her into a hug, the last hug that i'll give her- for now.
we stayed in that position for awhile, enjoying each others presence since it'll be too long to feel the embrace and warmth of each other.
"dahyun..."
"nado chuahae, nado saranghae."
"more then you could imagine."
we pull away, her eyes welling up in tears; happy tears you could say. she pulled on a gummy smile that wouldn't wear off her face, a tear already slipping out of her eye.
"saranghae." she says softly.
i looked down at her lonely plumb lips that were calling for mine.
i leaned in and smashed my lips on hers.
hearing the sound of flashes and camera shots.
we both smile during the kiss and pulled away shortly.
"i'll wait for you."
"once we meet again someday,"
"i'll be happy to officially call you mine."
