cold mornings | book 2

[ t w e n t y - o n e ]

Jisoo woke up due to sunlight streaming directly to her face. Her head throbbed as she abruptly sat up; she had been crying so much for the last six hours, and her eyes were still red and puffy.

She then glanced at the other side of the bed and brushed her hand against the cold space. "Why am I still hoping that everything that happened was all a bad dream?" Jisoo whispered to herself before giving herself a weak smack on the head.

'He's never coming back, Kim Jisoo.'

Her phone, which was placed on her nightstand, vibrated. Jisoo raised her brow. It was rather rare for her to receive any messages, especially at seven o'clock in the morning-the only people who would send her messages frequently were her family, Jennie, Chaeyoung and Lisa.

She rubbed her eyes as she lazily picked up the phone. The screen then displayed her lock screen with a notification that stated that she had received a new message. Jisoo tapped on it as the screen loaded for awhile before revealing the messenger;

park jimin
i want to take you out for some ice cream today, you look like you really need some fresh air.
seen 7:01 am

A smile graced Jisoo's lips as she read the message, feeling her heart flutter-it had been quite awhile since she felt something like this. She immediately typed up a reply before pressing the 'send' button.

kim jisoo
sure thing jimin-ah.
what time do you want to meet up?
sent 7:05 am

And as if on cue, she heard knocking from the front door. Jisoo slowly peeked out from her bedroom and heard knocking once again. She was hesitant at first, thinking that it could be a stranger capable of harassing her, but Jimin's message immediately came into her mind.

"That could be Jimin.." Jisoo whispered under her breath before waddling to the front door. She was excited to see her brown haired male friend once again, even though they only talked yesterday, Jimin was someone she could rely on.

When Jisoo reached the front door, she immediately fixed herself to look more presentable since she was only in her pajamas-that were decorated in unicorns and rainbows. She took a deep breath before opening the door, expecting to see the Jimin standing in front of her.

But a wave of disappointment washed over her as she was now face to face with a face that she hoped she would never see again. Jisoo felt like crying as she stared into the orbs of the man she used to love.

"Kim Taehyung.. What are you doing here?"
