PHOENIX POV
When I got home, I walked straight into my room. I didn't even look at my parents.
I stayed at the park for another hour after he left. I felt empty when he left but I couldn't be mad at him. Even though I wanted to hate Seoyoon, I couldn't.
There were definitely multiple bad names I wanted to call her, but I was more jealous of her than I was upset with her. She had captured a part of Jungkook that I couldn't.
I wondered what happened to that sexy Jungkook that I met. Ah, our first meeting felt like forever ago. I thought about how I felt about him then and how I felt about him now. I would've never thought my feelings would develop this way.
He was so complex. He was like a puzzle I could never solve. A board game I could never win. But I kept trying. Even if I couldn't solve him, I was going to keep trying. Even if I couldn't win him, I was going to keep playing.
That was the difference between Seoyoon and me. She knew exactly how many pieces the puzzle had, exactly where to put each piece. She'd already won the game several times.
A few hours after I got home, I texted all the pictures I took to Jungkook. Of course I didn't send him the candid ones I took of him. That was embarrassing. He was too perfect to not take pictures of.
Less than 5 minutes after I texted him, he called me. I was hesitant to pick up.
But of course I answered. He was Jeon Jungkook, who wouldn't have picked up?
"Hey." I said. There was a long silence. He wasn't even saying hello back, but I could hear his breathing. It soothed me. "Why'd you call?"
He still didn't respond. After a few more minutes he finally spoke. "I don't know."
He called me just to call me. I was more happy than I should've been.
"Was there anything you wanted to talk about? Did something happen?" He never just called to call. That was strange.
"I don't know." He said again. After a few more seconds of silence he talked again. "I just got back from seeing her. Then you texted me and I just felt like I needed to call you."
I felt tears again. Jungkook really made me emotional. "Oh. I really hope you're feeling okay. Drink a lot of water and eat a lot of vegetables. Oh and don't forget to take vitamins too, it's real-"
A long sigh cut me off, "How do you do it?"
I was so confused. He just didn't make sense. "Do what?"
"You know when you drink super cold water, you could kind of feel it going down your throat and into your stomach? I don't know how to explain it properly but that's what your voice does to me. Except it's warm, and instead of traveling to my stomach, it travels to my brain. This weird warmth just fills my head." He paused. "Are you really a hypnotist? Are you trying to hypnotize me into giving you money? Now that I think about it-"
"Ya! Jungkook! I'm not a hypnotist, shut up. Maybe you're just feeling warm in the head because you're drunk or something." I felt a blush working up again. He said I made him feel a certain way, I was special.
I could hear him slightly chuckle. It was a sad sounding chuckle though. "Maybe, maybe I am drunk."
"But I'm being serious, you really nee-" I was cut off by a phone call from V. "Um, Jungkook I'll call you back. V's calling."
