Chapter 9

*-*-*

"She's okay, she'll wake up soon."

You heard a voice outside your room, it was blurry and kinda dispersed and you didn't quite understand the conversation.

The knob on your room door twisted revealing an unfamiliar man smiling at you while holding a tray of food. He's wearing an all white uniform, rays of the sun was giving him a shocking glow and his smile, a smile so comforting yet so familiar. You grew shocked but happy at the same time, you don't know him and you realized something.

'Am I in heaven now? Is he an angel?'

You quickly sat up and covered yourself with your blanket but a sting on your left hand made you jolt up in pain. The man ran up to you and made you lie down on the bed, careful about your aching arm.

"Eat first and drink this medicine, we'll talk after."

Your eyes grew larger than before, you're not dead.

You're alive.

The man right there isn't an angel.

He's a nurse or something.

But you're still in Jungkook's room.

'What's happening?'

You stared at the food and the man, the way of speaking was so familiar. Those eye smile was really familiar too and the built and aura of the man, he's so familiar yet feels like a stranger.

"Appa (Dad / Father), is she conscious now?"

Your attention got diverted on the washroom of the room.

You saw Jungkook holding a pale and mop, it's obvious that he just cleaned something. You got taken a back when you remembered last night's incident. There's now way you survived after all those deep cuts you made.

How, why, when, who and what.

His gaze on you was cold but concerned. His eyes was red and puffy, he has this gloomy atmosphere and blood was on his white shirt.

You got embarrassed, he really did receive you. Your close to dying body.

"Jungkook-ah, are you done cleaning? Feed your friend, it looks like she can't move her arm. I'll just go look for something."

"Alright, I can now manage."

And the man passed the tray after Jungkook cleaned up. He went straight to you and placed the tray on your nightstand and sat at the side of your bed.

He looked at you without blinking, little hiccups are heard and his tears fell down.

He opened his arms and you automatically hugged. He tightened it without saying a word. You can feel his nervousness, his dissapoinment and his worries.

"Glad you didn't left me or I'll be stuck with Taehyung again, I'm happy when you are introduced to me and I can tell you everything without hiding. I can show you my real me without disguising as a shy, antisocial and cold boy."

You smiled at his little humour, he's trying to make the tense atmosphere light.

"Don't do it again, I said that already, I and Taehyung understands you. If you'll do it again, I'll never forgive you again. Don't leave us."

He let go of the hug and stopped crying. He got the plate full of food and to which to your surprise was kimchi rice and soup with side dishes.

"You didn't taste my masterpiece yesterday, you left me eating all the kimchi rice but after what I saw, I can't even eat or sleep. You dumbass, you thought you'll escape my cooking? If you don't want kimchi rice you should've said it instead of escaping by suicide."

You know he's just joking or reversing the mood but deep inside your heart, you can feel that he needs answers but he's not opening it up too much instead he made assumptions.

You're touched with everything that you heard but felt sicker. He's doing it because you're his friend. A friend that he trusts with all hi secrets.

"And we haven't talked yet. We'll talk together with my father. Let's finish this up first, if you don't like this then I'll cook something else."

You shook your head and ate the rice, he smiled.

He continued feeding you while he's talking, you didn't respond but ate. You're happy you're alive, you got to taste your crush's dish and experience his caring side but got wrecked remembering that you got to face reality.

This is just a fake reality.

"Adalyn-"

"Oh Y/n, how's your wound? All cleaned up? I bought some fruits, hope you'll like it."

She smiled so wide while pouring some tea on those little cups at the coffee table. You can see Jungkook back with his disguise.

Earphones in, mask on and hair down.

Your step sister was sitting in between Jungkook and his father and both are uncomfortable with her presence.

She's observing every move you do and she's giving all her best to impress the two men in the house. She prepared food, made tea again and even fixed the bed you slept in earlier without complaining and mumbling curse words. She's completely different today.

You stood frozen on your spot, you looked at Jungkook who's focus isn't at your state but at Adalyn, his eyes are glowing with satisfaction seeing Adalyn doing these things while his father seems unaware of it.

Jungkook's father is looking at you.

You looked down and tears started to fall. Adalyn will get everything even Jungkook's father. She'll build it's trust to her and will destroy you secretly and make him fall on her charms, she'll do this to make it worse for you.

Adalyn got back at the living after cleaning 'your room' and sat at the same spot. Jungkook's father made you sit down too beside him where it's the only space available.

Jungkook just looked at you but still stiff because of Adalyn.

He's so different when your evil sister is around.

Adalyn smiled and scooted closer to Jungkook knowing you have some attraction to the boy. She's so close to the point they're touching already.

Her face changed to a calm and sad one from having those dark look she got for you.

Her acting was back and she held your trembling hands, it wasn't the comforting one but a threatening hold. It was tight and her nails are digging your skin.

"Little sister, why did you do that? Tell me the reason, I'll help you recover."

And her sarcastic smile is on.

'I'll help you suffer.' was her thought.
