Cheonsa
I quickly flipped the doormat and grabbed the spare key.

I unlocked his door and quickly made my way to his bedroom.

As I reached closer to his closed door, I could hear him coughing.

My heart softened and ached for him.

I slowly held onto the doorknob, contemplating on whether I should or should not actually open the door.

"Ki? Is that you? Please come in quickly." Jungkook's voice suddenly startled me.

I sighed and decided to just open the door.

I let out a sigh of relief when I saw him with his eyemask on.

"Can you get me a glass of water and my pills?" He asked and coughed.

I hummed in reply and went to get him a glass of water.

I hummed again and placed the glass in front of him.

Suddenly, he glided his hand across my forearm to then hold onto the water.

My heart stopped as the feeling of his fingers stayed tingling on my skin.

"T-The pills." He said again.

Still dazed, I placed the pills onto his hands, trembling.

Once he done everything, he sighed in relief and covered himself with the blanket.

"Ki," he said.

I looked at him and hummed again.

"What should I do?"

I remained silent.

"Cheonsa, she, aish...I dont know what to do about her." He suddenly said making me freeze and stare at him.

"I dont even know whether I still live her anot." My heart sanked.

"But, i mean, i do get jealous when I see her with that guy. But, could it only be infatuation? Not love?"

I was speechless.

"There isnt really something special about her right? Her looks are average and her studies are alright,"

Tears welled up in my eyes.

"I think..." he took a deep breath.

"I think I should just give up on her right?" He asked.

Drops fell onto my skirt.

I painstakingly let out another hum.

"Should I just be with you? It will be better wont it? Right?" He jokingly said and he even laughed.

Tears flowed like rivulets.

I slowly got onto my feet and walked towards the door.

I could hear no more.

With my tremblings hand, I twisted the doorknob open and made a beeline for the door.

Tears still flowed as I ran back home.

Once I reached back home, my breath shook as I fished out my phone.

"M-Mom? Can I go back to you?" I tried my best to not crack my voice.

"Whats wrong is there-"

"J-Jebal..." i broke down there and then on the phone as I covered my mouth to supress the sounds of my sobs.

I needed to get out of here.

I have to.

Jungkook
"Should I just be with you? It will be better this way wont it?" I jokingly said.

But Ki didnt reply at all.

"Right?" I asked again but did not hear anything.

I sighed and smiled sadly.

"I wish I could be like what i want to."

"But I just cant. I love her alot. Even if people think that her looks are average and her studies are not good, she will always be the number one in my heart,"

"She will always be who I love the most." I took a deep breath as I smiled widely.

"I dont think i can give up on her. Cause I love her way too much to do that."
