"what are you doing? i fucking told you i don't want to go anywhere," i told him as he dragged me down the street.
"i'm taking you away for a while," he muttered, eyes trained on the road ahead of him.
"what?" i retaliated, absolutely confused.
a heavy motor car turned into the street. i felt jimin's grip on my wrist tense and he quickly turned around towards me.
"be quiet," he whispered and wrapped his other arm around me, pulling me into his chest.
"j-jimin?" i stuttered, trying to push away from his chest. he shushed me and hugged my body, walking me backwards towards a brick wall.
he bent his head down and whispered in my ear, "that car coming towards us, it's the group of guys who tried to hurt you. they're after you again."
i looked up at his face and then eyed the car that was slowly driving up the street. inside was the same guys who poured water on me the other day.
shit.
jimin could sense my fear and placed a hand on the back of my head, pushing me back into his chest.
as soon as the car drove past us, jimin instantly let go and walked away. i blinked twice, not knowing what just happened.
"come on, let's go," jimin said quietly, looking over his shoulder. i nodded quickly and followed close behind him.
i started thinking, 'did jimin really save me from those guys? if i was inside my house right now, my life would have been cut short..'
i looked at the back of jimin's head.
'what's up with him? i thought he hated me?'
"dahyun," he said, snapping me out my thoughts.
"huh?"
"we're here."
i creased my eyebrows in confusion and looked ahead of me.
we were at han river.
i looked at jimin and questioned, "why did you bring me here?" jimin contently stared at the bridge and shrugged.
"i always come here when i'm upset."
"oh," i replied softly.
"let's go," jimin said, walking across the bridge until he stopped halfway.
we stood together in silence, watching the flowing water below us. i watched the different cyclic waves of the water, how they drifted together.
my eyebrows creased slightly. something about the water made me feel..weird. it was suddenly really hard to breath. i placed a hand on my chest, feeling my heart starting to accelerate.
the water...it reminded me of something.
'it's okay..' a gentle voice spoke in my head, causing me to twist my head violently towards the sound.
'the fuck was that,' i thought. my breathing started coming in short intakes.
jimin looked at my panicked state, wondering what was going on.
"dahyun?" he called out, making my head snap towards him.
'it's okay, dahyun,' the mysterious voice called out again.
soon after that, my eyes failing me. everywhere i looked, there was water. everywhere.
i'm going to drown. i couldn't breath, i couldn't speak.
i've felt this sick feeling before..couple of weeks ago when those guys poured water on me.
it's always to do with water that i get this sick feeling in my stomach.
that made me realise...am i scared of water?
that was the last thing that crossed my mind before i lost my senses. my body became limp, my vision darkened, muffled sounds from jimin brushed my ears, my mouth was dry...i lost control.
"dahyun!" jimin yelled as i fell over the bridge.
i'm falling.
falling not only into the river but also into my darkest fear.
water.
