Chapter 9: Pain

•Jungkook's POV•
"Eun Mi! Watch out!"
My eyes grew wider when the boxes tumbled down on to Eun Mi.

"Eun Mi, no. No, no, no, this can't be good."
Fear was starting to fill up my eyes. I rushed to her and moved all the boxes on top of her to aside.

"Eun Mi? Eun Mi, can you hear me?"
She was laying on the floor lifelessly. I knelt down and took her in my arms and brushed her hair out of her face.

"Eun Mi, wake up. Eun Mi-ah.."
I kept shaking her but there was no reply. Just her pale face with her eyes closed.

'Why do I feel this way? Like I care for her.. No, clear your mind. You are Jeon Jungkook. You'll never care for anyone.'

I shrugged off my thoughts and my eyes softened.

I ruffled my hair in frustration.

"Eun Mi hang in there. You'll be okay."
I said as I stood up with her, still in my arms.

I gently placed her down on my bed and sat beside her.

"Eun Mi? Wake up potato."
I shook her arm continuously but as expected, no reply.

I sighed and went downstairs.

"Prepare a night gown for the girl. She's staying here."
I told my maid and she nodded.

Suddenly, the door opened. My mum and some guy came in.

"Oh hi, you must be Jungkook."
The guy smiled at me, his arm was connected with my mum's.

"Who are you?"
I raised an eyebrow at him and poked my inner cheeks with my tongue.

"He's just my friend Jungkook. Don't worry."
My mum dragged the guy into her room, leaving me there.

"I hate to say this God. But the mum that you gave me is a slut."
I rolled my eyes and filled a glass of water for Eun Mi.

The maid gave me the night gown and I thanked her.

"Also, prepare a bucket with water and ice. Soak a handkerchief inside the cold water and bring it up to my room."
I instructed as she got to work.

I went up to my room and sat beside Eun Mi once again.

"Please wake up Eun Mi. Please."
I took her hand in mine and placed my hand on her forehead.

Damn, she's burning. Is she having a fever?

I was sitting there still trying to figure out why is she having a fever now. She didn't eat anything or she didn't get under the ra-

"That's it!"
I jumped up and closed my mouth with my hands.

"Oops.. Don't want her to wake up."
My maid entered and placed the bucket on the bedside table.

"She was running under the rain that day. That's why. Gosh, she's quite strong. Seeing her, she got wet a few days ago and only now the fever came."
I smiled a little and put the wet and cold handkerchief on her forehead.

•Eun Mi's POV•
Every inch of my body hurts, especially for my head and arm.

My eyes fluttered opened, just to see a peaceful Jungkook, sleeping beside me, my hands in his, his head on our intertwined hands. There was a handkerchief on my forehead.
