YOONGI'S POV

I've been searching for hours, yet I still haven't seen Zia. I'm really worried that something might have happened to her.

For once I have not complained about walking around too much, nor am I tired of running around in circles. I didn't even looked for my bed though my muscles are aching all over already.

'Just where the hell are you Zia?' I thought, fighting against the tears that are threatening to fall.

Just as I was about to shout again to call on her name, I heard noises from a distance. Thinking that it might be her, I gave it a shot and gone straight to where the noise is coming from.

Getting closer, the noise became clearer and from the shouting that I could hear I think there are people arguing about something.

Reaching that spot in the woods, I can now see someone's back facing me. A girl with a long hair and drenched clothes. It was the person I got used to stare at all this time.

Glad to have finally found her, relief washed over me. I took a deep breath to call out unto her, but someone beat me to it; shouting loud and clear that I hope I haven't heard it, but too late.

"...I LOVE YOU DAMN IT!" said Jungkook.

I didn't even saw him from where I was standing, and here he is proclaiming his love for Zia. Yes, I have been too close with Zia for a while now, but I haven't told her what I truly felt. I was afraid of how she would react to it, so I just kept our friendship to avoid losing her.

But...

At that moment, I felt jealous that I didn't do it first. I regretted staying in the shadows. I hated that I didn't have the guts to tell her everything that I've been suppressing, just to stay close to her.

Pain. Too much of it, that it suffocates me. I may have been tired and my body may have been aching all over, but the pain that I feel in my heart right now is much more stronger; it felt like it was ripped apart from me.

I hated it. I felt weak. I lost, when I haven't even tried to fight for what I wanted.

Completely losing it, I just turned around and left the scene, pretending that I wasn't even there to begin with. I ran back to the camping spot and stayed inside my tent.

I let it all out. Tears continuously rushed down to my face. I sobbed silently while holding my head between my hands. Tiredness fell upon me a hundred-fold.

I wish I haven't seen that with my own eyes. I wish I've done it first. Maybe... Just maybe, it was worth a shot. I knew it would though, but I chose to be a coward.

I may have looked like someone who had all confidence, but a glance from Zia would have me crumble down from being loud and proud.

Something fragile and precious to me had flown away. Like a butterfly far beyond my reach as it soared high, freeing itself from me.

You win Kook-ah. Just, take care of my princess for me... Lastly, I'm sorry for not giving it my all, I love you Zia. Please be happy.

"...Butterfly, like a butterfly
Machi Butterfly, bu butterfly cheoreom~"
