Chapter 5: Heartbeat Rate

[JI-EUN]

After taking a bath, I cooked myself for lunch. I thought of making Jungkook a food too, but I guess he won't eat it either. I preceded in the balcony playing my guitar for hours and clutched my paint brush for an abstract painting.

The mysterious man I met the other day was sleeping in my brother's room, I hope he's comfortable with that. Those ABS. Those freaking muscles were still in my mind, they were fresh and shiny. Argghh! Ji-Eun stop thinking about that! You're being a pervert, okay?

There's always been something about Jungkook, his emotionless eyes and his silence. That quite bothered me, and I wish to know him more. He didn't tell me about his personal background and now I don't have an idea how to help him.

Even there's a twitch in me that doesn't want him to go back, I can never read his mind.

I fell the brush when I suddenly heard him descending the stairs. Likely, he rushed to the living room and dumped himself on the sofa, snuggled with the pillows. He's just so cute! But, he's really mysterious.

I picked the brush again and continued with my business.
The television flashed open, and there I saw him watching.

I wondered the day I saw him lying on the road, unconscious. I run to stoop beside him, and shake his body. I was like, who's this man? He looked so pale and sick. He was awash with the pouring rain so bad. There are so many questions in my mind; what happened to him? Why is he lying on the ground? The night was growing deeper. My heart thumped, afraid if he's already lifeless. I dropped my umbrella on the ground to lay my ear to his chest.

Heartbeats.

He's alive for goodness's sake. I looked around, shouting all my voice. "Help me! Someone help!" Now we're both drenched, I sighed.

But no one responded.
We were the only people in the middle of the road, and the winds are blowing hard bringing me sudden goosebumps. There's nothing left to do, which is to bring him home. I looked at his kissable lips, and I blushed. He's attracting me, but it's not the right time.

Until he woke up in my house, he's talking to me emotionlessly. He was like traumatized or something, I even thought he was drunk or so, but he's not.

I placed the brush aside, and settled the art materials back in my case. I went straight to the kitchen passing by the living room to wash my hands.

Now that Jungkook's already awake, I should ask him if he wanted to eat.
"Hey, do you want to eat?"

I didn't look at him until he gets to response.
"No,"
Oh gosh!
That was the most comfortable answer from him, we we're just like having a mother and son conversation here, and it felt good to me.

"Sure?"
I looked back to peek on the TV.
Aw, so cute! I never thought this guy would watch a cartoon after shifting channels repeatedly. Adventure Time was flashing, and he's kinda enjoying it! Baby Jungkook.
"How about Juice? Coffee? Or Milk Chocolate?"

He stopped for a minute to think about it. However I giggled preparing the glass.

"Milk Chocolate,"

Aw! So aegyo! I didn't expect that to come, he's really like a young boy. I chuckled and prepared him a milk chocolate drink and stirred it with a spoon while I walked by the sofa.

My eyes enlarged, when I saw him hugging my favorite gray bunny. That stuffed toy was my favorite, and now he's hugging it! Gosh! I wanna pinch his cheeks right now, if I could just do it.

"Here,"

I handed him the glass and he caught it carefully. As his lips touched the glass taking a sip, I blushed. I was waiting his reaction about how good I made the drink, but I didn't hear any sound coming from him. He's just all focused in the television, watching.
