Forbidden Love

Chapter 20: It's not fine.

Baekhyun's POV:

While Taeyeon and Seolhyun were talking, Tiffany was studying me.

"Do you need something?" I ask, but she is still concentrated on my hand. I wave my hand in her face and she looks at my face.

"I don't get you... How are you completely... Fine?" she asks crossing her arms still studying me.

"Can you stop that?"

"Well.. I'll be going now," she says leaving. Then Seolhyun comes back and smiles.

"What did you two talk about?" I ask walking with my hand in hers. When I look over to her, her eyes are sparkling.

"Just girl stuff," she replies turning to look at me. "I'm just glad the war might not happen anymore." As we walk to a place fill with bamboo, we take a seat on a rock.

"Are you sure that's all you talked about?" I ask. She nods in response.

"How many children do you want to have?" she asks looking down at a ring on her hand.

"Hm... Maybe two.."

Seolhyun then looks at something and her face changes.

"I need to grab something! I'll be right back, stay here," she says running off. I see her disappear and I wait....

Taeyeon's POV:

I wake from a nap with my heart beating quickly. As I look around, I see I'm in my room. Just then I see a small head pop in my doorway.

"Hello Unni!" Yerin says. Then Tiffany pops her head in also.

"How you do'in?" she asks.

"How did I get here?" I ask confused.

"You walked in?... Do you not remember?" she questions coming over to me.

"I did?"

"I remember now," I lie while awkwardly laughing. Hopping up onto my feet. I make my way out of the room and towards my mom's room.

Knock, Knock, Knock~

"Yes?" she replies inside. Her voice isn't as sad as it was before, so I open the door and walk in.

"Hi Omma," I say leaning on the door frame. She turns to look at me but frowns when she looks at my face.

"You... I mean... I left a scar on your face?" she asks as she struggles to find words to say.

"Ah, this.. I kinda like it, it makes me look tough," I say pretending to flex my muscles and putting on an angry face.

"Aigoo, my daughter is still a kid," she replies smiling.

"I'm going to go out for a walk. I'll see you later Omma," I responded one more time before leaving. As I left the front gates, Jungkook was there waiting for me.

"Hi," he said waving his hand.

"How are you?" I ask walking down the stairs to stand on the same level as him.

"I am good. I, um, heard you blow the whistle," he says placing his hands behind his back and moving back and forth on his heels.

"You did?" I ask amazed and he smiles.

"I wasn't too far from where you blew it."

"Omo! Really?! I'm going on a walk, wanna tag along?"

"Sure!" he says holding my hand and walking. We continue to walk listening to the sounds of the busy market until we realize we're in a forest.

"How did we get here?" I say looking around the unfamiliar green area. Jungkook also looks around and seems lost.

"I don't know..."

"Do you just wanna find a nice rock to sit on and talk?"

"That sounds nice," he says still holding my hand as we walk. I find a mossy rock to sit down on with him and run thoughts through my head.

"You know... Tiffany really likes you, and... You shouldn't waste your time on me," I say taking in a breath afterward. "I don't know if I have more than a few weeks to live out my life.. It's stopped, but I'm sure it's just the gods letting me live for the last few moments of my life."

"Taeyeon, what are yo-"

"Please, can you complete just this one wish?"

"I... I'll do it, she's a nice girl, and she's been nice to me ever since we've met."

Quickly, Jungkook becomes alert of the area around us. He looks around carefully as if he's looking for something.

"Are you okay?"

"Quiet, keep your head low," he says still looking.

"What?"

Just then I hear a whizzing sound by my ear and wood breaking is heard behind me. Several men appear in the forest holding up guns.

"Run, I'll hold them off," he says looking at them and drawing his sword.

"I can't leave you here-"

"JUST GO!" he yells at me. I look back at him and back at the people slowly approaching us. Stumbling, I run from them, not looking back. I don't hear anything, but footsteps coming nearer and nearer to me. I turn to look at him, but it's one of the men holding guns earlier.

"What do you want?" I question trying to sound brave, but it seems to come out as a whisper. He smirks and I make a dash to leave.

"Get back here!" he yells, but I ignore him.

Bang!

A sharp pain pierces my arm, but I keep running from him. My foot slips and I fall into a hole, hitting my head on something. My vision is becoming filled with a white light. I see the man one second, then I'm lifted and see a back along with the ground.... I see blood moving down my arm and my head feels life I was put under pressure... My world... Becomes black...
