It was hard to stay awake, but he couldn't fall asleep either. His bed had become uncomfortable, all Yoongi did was toss and turn. The bags under his eyes reflected the pain of how much they burned.
But he couldn't sleep. At least not here.
He kept on having this dream of a girl, someone he didn't recognize. The dream started many months ago, when he had gone down to the water one day to clear his mind.
In this dream, Yoongi was standing by the rocks, staring up at the light tower. The girl was standing at the top of the lighthouse, always looking down at the water. Yoongi would see her climb over the railing, her hair flowing in the sea breeze.
He would yell up at her, screaming at her to get down. But she would never look over at him, she would never hear him. Right as she would let go of the railing, he would wake up suddenly, in a cold sweat.
Sometimes he would even cry for the unknown girl.
One day , Yoongi went down to the water, where his dream took place. He thought that maybe if he went there, he could finally rest.
He sat down on the bridge, looking over at the lighthouse. No one was up there. He sighed, leaning back and closing his eyes.
Yoongi hadn't realized he dozed off, but he woke up startled, like something was wrong. He looked around, noticing the sky had turned gray, that the waves were growing strong. He looked back at the lighthouse, his heart pounding.
Someone was up there, her hair flowing in the breeze.
Trying to get her attention, Yoongi yelled and screamed. But she climbed over the railing, just as he expected. Yoongi's heart was racing, running down from the bridge and across the rocks, still yelling for her.
He stood at the base of the lighthouse now, crying and calling up to her, begging. The girl looked down at him, a tear falling down her cheek as she gave a light smile, her last smile.
She let go of the railing, falling slowly to the sound of Yoongi's cry. He had to look away, hoping it was all in his head.
But this time, it wasn't a dream.
