Stolen By Him ||Jungkook||

Chapter 23

"Jae Eun! Wake up, you're going to be late for school!" her mother was screaming in her ear, alerting her, making her sit up quickly.

"What time is it?!" she asked in a hurry.

"You have 20 minutes to get to school," her mother replied and ran off to the kitchen.

Jae Eun ran up to her room and quickly changed into her uniform. She tied her messy hair into a bun and ran down with her bag. Grabbing a piece of toast, she sat at the island in the middle of the kitchen.

Thinking about what was happening over the last few day, it suddenly reminded her of her dad. She hadn't seen her father in so long, and it was worrying.

"Omma, where's appa?" she asked.

"He was supposed to come last night from work, but hasn't yet," she looked to the door, expecting him to come through.

"I think he's working over-time," she turned back to her cooking.

After stuffing everything in her mouth, she bid farewell to her mother, and ran to school.

Once she reached, there was 5 minutes left and she sighed in relief. Trudging to class, she saw that everyone was already in their seats, but the teacher wasn't present. 

Jungkook and V were in her class and they sat right in front of her. Math was the worst, and she used to be the most distracted in this class, because V would turn around and take her book, or make faces, mumbling gibberish.

V watched her sit and he turned around to face her. She just kept her head low. Jungkook kept on fiddling with his fingers and didn't realize she was there. He seemed helpless and uneasy.

"Hello!" V was cheerful and showed his rectangular smile.

"Hi," she replied, showing no emotion.

V looked at Jungkook for help, but he kept his head low. He turned to face Jae Eun again.

"You seem tired. Did you sleep well?" V questioned her, taking a look at her heavy eyebags.

"I was up late catching up on my studies, because I didn't get to do it last semester," she glared at both of them, making it apparant why she couldn't do anything.

V tried to change the topic, and nudged Jungkook's arm, but he gave no reply.

"Err...I heard that you have a project form History, do you need help on it?" he chuckled slightly and smiled at her.

"No," she was firm in her tone. She kept on looking through her textbook.

"Ok.." V seemed disappointed and tried to think of something else to talk about.

His face brightened up and he rummaged through his bag. He pulled out a little alien toy and placed it on her textbook, catching her attention.

"Do you like my toy? He's so cute, right?" he provoked her to answer.

"Yeah, he's cute, now move,"she moved it off and stared at the words on her book.

V pouted and turned around. The class fell into an awkward silence for a few minutes. Jungkook was looking out of the window and at the door every few seconds.

Why does he seem so troubled?

But as she was about to enquire about him, the class door slammed open, making the whole class jump in their chairs.

There came in men in black, more like police officers. They looked through the students and walked over to Jungkook.

They took him by the arms and pulled him out of his seat.

"Yah! Let me go!" he struggled in their arms, but they just tightened their grip on him. 

"Come with us," the bigger one said.

"No! Let me go!" he kicked one of them and he flinched a little. 

"Don't try any shit with us. You'll regret it," they tugged on his collar.

Jae Eun sat watching the whole thing horrified.

"And who is Jae Eun?" one of them started looking around.

Jae Eun slowly put her hand up, "Me..." she timidly said.

"Come with us," they told her to come with a blank face. She got up and looked at Jungkook.

He looked back and quickly turned his head. They went with both of them and took them to the principle's office.

The principle sat there looking disappointed and Jungkook was sitting in between the two officers. Jae Eun sat opposite.

She was shaking because she was so nervous. What had she done wrong? Why was Jungkook here?

"You are probably wondering why you're here right now," the police looked at Jae Eun and she slightly nodded.

"As for you, you know why exactly you're here," he gritted his teeth whilst looking at Jungkook.

"Jae Eun, you're not in trouble, but your father is," the police officer explained.

"My dad? What did he do?" she questioned, eager to know the answer.

"Your father and Jungkook have been involved in drug dealing and joyriding," he explained. Jae Eun's eyes widened and moved to Jungkook.

"And whilst joyriding, they made someone end up in the hospital. You may have not seen your father recently, have you?" he asked.

"No, not for a few days,"

"He's being held in the police station for further investigation, and Jungkook is going to join him," the police officer looked at him.

"Is my dad going to go to jail?" she asked.

"Yes, but the period of time hasn't been determined yet," they stood up, taking Jungkook by the arm again. 

"Jungkook, you know that you have been involved in this, and there are consequences," he started hand-cuffing him, and he didn't struggle.

"Yeah," he said in a low voice.

"Jae Eun, if you want to see your dad, come with us," Jae Eun quickly stood up and followed them out.

She walked behind them and Jungkook looked back every now to look at Jae Eun, but she turned her head away in disgust.

The hatred she had for him grew even more. Her blood was boiling and she wanted to kill him right there, but she held all of her emotions in.

They sat in the cruiser, with Jungkook and Jae Eun together in the back. At first, it was silent, and Jungkook whispered to her.

"I'm so sorry," he leaned a little closer to her, making sure that she heard.

"Don't you dare talk to me," she glared at him, and if looks could kill, she would be responsible for his death.

He took the hint and leaned back in his seat, staring out of the window. And the rest of the ride, was dead silent. 

Jae Eun looked through her pockets for her phone, but her hand landed on a piece of paper. She pulled it out and looked at the crumpled paper.

Don't do it.

What?
