The Lady in White

Chapter 10

After everything that happened, I ran back as fast as I could. Hiding myself from the cruelty of the world. I sat at the corner of the room with my back facing the wall on the cold marble floor as I sob out everything of what's left of me.

Seems like a familiar situation, doesn't it?

I know that I shouldn't have reacted the way that I did. I know I shouldn't have blown up at Taehyung. But I did anyways. I was overwhelmed. I was so close to losing my mind and was on the verge of having a mental breakdown. It was as if I was a ticking time bomb just waiting for the right moment to blow up. Everything that has been happening to me lately has given me enough damage. Metaphorically, the 'push' at the swimming pool triggered everything as if it was like the final 'push' for me to finally break down.

Whatever it is, I just want to lock myself in the room accompanied by despair and sorrowness. Look at the bright side Maya, at least I'm not alone.

________________________________
Taehyung's POV

One time I was climbing down the tree as I was waiting for my friends to find me as we were playing hide and seek. I waited patiently until I decided that they couldn't find me and that I won the game. As I was coming down, I somehow slipped and fell ten feet to the ground, landing on my back. It was as if the impact had knocked every wisp of air from my lungs as I lay there struggling to breathe, to move, to do anything. I just laid there, motionlessly.

That's how I feel right now, trying to remember how to breathe, unable to speak, totally stunned as the words she said kept bouncing around inside my head as I see tears threatening to flow out from her eyes.

I'm sorry for even existing

"What just happened?"
Namjoon asked confusedly.

I was pretty much trying to process everything well. What just happened? Everything happened so fast, one minute everyone was laughing and playing around and then next thing I know I got yelled at, making everyone to turn their heads to us.

"I don't feel like going swimming anymore.. "
Jungkook pouted.

"Yea, I feel bad.."
Suga said as he looks down.

"Okay guys, let's just go back to our rooms and reflect on your actions okay?"
Namjoon-hyung concluded as we start making our way back into our rooms.

Even as time passes by I still couldn't wrap my head around what's just happened. I was still shocked and speechless, regretful even. Her crystal clear tears streamed down her face, and as I looked into her eyes I saw a black pool of sorrowness in it.

There's a story in her eyes. A sad one.

In my heart, I retract all the bad things I ever said, the amateurish things I've done. It was never in my attention to hurt her. I felt this strange, odd feeling of satisfaction and enjoyment when I see her cringe her face whenever I bother her. It was adorable.

" Yah, Tae. "
Jin called me, snapping me out of my thoughts.

" Hm ? "

" Mianhae. "

" Wae? "

"For making you look bad. It was our fault but you had to take the blame for us."
