Hye Mi's POV
"Answer me, bitch!"
He punched the wall beside my head, causing me to flinch.

I suddenly felt my cheeks getting watery and then I realised that I was crying.. I was literally crying.. I haven't cried for the past 2 years..

I feel horrible.. useless.. worthless.. disgusted (?)

Jungkook went speechless for awhile but then he spoke up hesitantly.

"W-Why're you crying? Did I hurt you? M-Mianhae..."
Jungkook's thumb landed on my cheeks as he wiped my tears away gently.

His facial expression softened. I could see that he was panicking..

"M-Mianhae Hye Mi-ah.. Mianhae.. D-Do you want to go back home? I'll send you home.."
He said softly, more like a whisper, as he pulled me closer to his body.

I hung my head down and slowly shook my head.
"I don't want to go home.. I don't want to see Yugyeom..."
I muttered.

He tilted his head to a side and cupped my cheeks with his hands.

'Gosh.. I feel so warm..'

"Why? What did he do to you? Tell me."
He held my chin up and looked at me in the eyes.

I really didn't wanted to tell him. Because if I do, I'll get close to him.. and if I'm close to him, I wouldn't have the courage to... kill him...

He hesitated at first but then he spoke up, taking my hand in his.
"It's okay. Don't tell me if you're uncomfortable. I'll send you home, it's cold outside."

I opened the door with my cheeks, stained with dry tears.

Yugyeom's footsteps coming from upstairs could be heard as I quickly tugged onto Jungkook's hand.

"It's okay.. I'm here.."
He tightened his grip on my hand and I instantly felt what?.. Safe? Secured? I don't know...

"Hye Mi! I've been looking for you everywhere. Where have you-"
He stopped when his eyes landed on Jungkook and our intertwined fingers.

He sighed and glared at us.
"Cheating on me now?"

"I bet you planned on cheating on me when you go to America."
I spat back at him and wiped my tears away.

His eyes softened as he let out a small chuckle. 
"Were you crying? Why?"

I kept quiet and pressed my lips into a thin line.

Jungkook then spoke up.
"She was crying because of you, you son of a bitch."

"I was not talking to you, Jeon Kookie-Wookie."
Yugyeom walked closer to us and grabbed my wrist.

I felt empty and lost when I didn't feel Jungkook's fingers wrapped around mine. I feel so.. what? Blank?

"Now if you'll excuse us, I need to do some private talking with Hye Mi. Leave."
He snaked his arm around my waist and drove me closer to him.

Jungkook hesitated at first, but then, he slowly took a step back and left us alone before flashing me his cute bunny smile.

Once the door shut closed, Yugyeom huffed and dragged me up to our room.

"What is your problem, Princess Sofia?"
He pushed me onto the bed in a sitting position while he stood in front of me with his hands crossed.

'Well.. Maybe he gave me that weird nickname because I'm wearing a purple dress but-'

"I said, what is your problem?"
He cleared his throat and eyed at me.
