LOVE TRIANGLE / kth. vs. jjk. [SLOW! EDITING]

10; mission

"How about we, going out with each other to forget Taehyung and Jiyoon?," he suddenly asked. "Maybe we could...you know...fall in
l-love," he said the last word hesitatingly.

I wasn't sure how to react to it. Should I laugh? Is that a joke? But what if he actually means it and is serious?

"You're not joking, right?," I asked him to be sure.

"No, I'm being honest here," he said and stared into my eyes. I stared back and realized:

He wasn't joking.

I could see it in his eyes.

"I..," I didn't know how to respond. "I...don't think that's a good idea. What's the sense of it when there's no love?"

I mean, what's the sense in going out together, when we don't love each other? You should go out with a person you love, right? I don't think I'll end up liking Jungkook. He's my best friend. I can't imagine him as my boyfriend.

"Y-yeah...it's a bad idea, right?," he laughed it off.

The tension was getting awkward between us which never happened before.

"Uhm...I'll, uhm, go to the next lesson," he said and ran out of the room without saying 'Bye' or anything like that, leaving me speechless.

I would've never imagine, Jungkook saying such things as 'going out with each other' and 'fall in love' to me.

It was weird.

I took a glance at my watch. I didn't have any more lessons on that day since a teacher caught a flu. The others still had more lessons.

I decided to go home alone and think about everything.

I arrived the house I was heading to, opened the door, walked up the stairs and plomped on my bed.

I was holding Taehyung's teddy bear, he bought me for my birthday, as I was caught in a dilemma: Should I call her? Or not?

Will she even pick up?

I decided to just do it. I had nothing to lose, right?

It was ringing...and ringing until someone finally picked up.

"Taeyeon Unnie! Why are you not answeri-"

"Who is that?," a deep voice asked.

"It's Seoyeon...are you Jackson?" Jackson was Taeyeon's boyfriend who was the reason, she ran away. He had to return to his home country and she followed him.

"Yeah...it's me," he affirmed.

"Is...something wrong with Taeyeon Unnie?"

"N-no, no, everything's fine!," he insisted. "I'm sorry, gotta go."

"Wai-" he hung up on me.

I wanted to talk to Taeyeon...

Why didn't she pick up? Jackson was really weird. Should I try calling her later again?

Would she pick up?

I didn't know what to do.

I grabbed my phone again, played some music and laid down on my bed.
