Chapter 14

November 19, 2017

I can't take it any longer. Jungkook literally makes me want to pull my fucking hair out. It's been just days of absolutely nothing since the time he took me to meet his friends or whatever and I haven't even let the room except to eat or shower. It's fucking miserable.

Why hasn't anybody come to save me yet? I figured Jimin would have at least done something. Does anybody even care that I'm gone? If so, why is it taking them so long to find me? I'm tired of waiting. I'd give anything to have things back the way they were before Jungkook decided to ruin my fucking life.

"Taehyung!" The voice startled Taehyung, who quickly shoved the notebook under his pillow as he watched his door open. "There's a problem."

You're telling me, he thought. "What do you mean?"

"Some news outlets are posting about your disappearance. I need you to post something on your Instagram to shut them up." He held Taehyung's phone up. "I'll read over it before you post it, though."

He tossed Taehyung his phone, watching as he unlocked it. He forced himself to ignore the texts in the notifications bar as he pulled up the notes app, writing a quick paragraph and then showing it to Jungkook, who, after reading over it a few times, decided it was acceptable.

kth95: There's been some more rumors about me that I'd like to clear up, once again. Somebody apparently posted that I had disappeared, but I have a simple explanation. Keeping up with both work and personal life was stressful. Me, being overwhelmed, and a friend decided to get away from all of those stresses and take a break. Hostage to my work no longer, I'm much happier, so thank you for your concern but I'm perfectly safe :)

The first word of each sentence made one of its own, somehow easily slipping past Jungkook. Jungkook took the phone back and left with only a "Breakfast will be ready soon," and closing the door behind him. Strangely, though, he didn't lock it. Taehyung decided not to leave the room, though, as it might have been an accident and he didn't want to anger him.

He just hoped someone would catch onto the secret message in his post, figuring out where he was and coming to his rescue. The chances were slim, though, as most people didn't usually look for hidden messages in posts for no reason.

He sighed as he heard his name being called, standing up and leaving the room. He down at the table where he was served a simple meal. Jungkook was very inconsistent in the meals he cooked, as that previous night he made just boxed macaroni and cheese.

"Is it good?" He asked, watching Taehyung eat. The latter nodding, continuing to eat without speaking. "You haven't been talking to me much lately," He pointed out. "Is staying with me boring?"

Taehyung shrugged, continuing to look down at his food. Ever since Jungkook made him start eating every meal completely, he found himself gaining some weight. He easily gained back everything he had lost during the few days where he ate almost nothing, and it seemed he'd just keep gaining if he kept at this rate. Before, he wouldn't have minded. He might have even been happy. But, now, he found himself unsatisfied with his body and the way it was changing.

"If you're not going to talk then you can at least nod."

He continued to eat as if he wasn't there.

"I really don't think you want to make me mad again, Taehyung. You know that never ends well for you."

Taehyung put the chopsticks he was holding down and looked at Jungkook. "What do you want me to say?" He asked. "I've been here for, like, four days with just about no social interaction other than being forced to sit down with you and eat three times a day. That's not even mentioning the fact that I'm bored out of my mind just sitting in that tiny room all day."
