SHE SEES.

05 : FOUR O'CLOCK

"as the moonlight starts to fade,
and the dawn it starts to break,
the moonlight that stays with me
disappears."

- kim taehyung.

(4:00)

"jungkook?" chaeyoung and jungkook walk through the busy streets, "yes?" he is so much taller than chaeyoung so he ruffles her soft hair. "a-aish!" she blushes, snapping his hands away.

"i was just wondering where will you go tonight?"

the boy timidly pauses, he didn't know what to answer. but instead of leaving her with no response, he smiles before answering.

"i don't know where the world will take me,"

"but i know i'll be home."

chaeyoung's eyes soften.

"g-good point you got there!" she stutters with a laugh. but deep down she knew that it hurts,

why does it hurts anyway?

she shouldn't care.

for her he's just a stranger, for him she's also a stranger.

but she feels alive in just his mere warmth, the warmth of this familiar stranger.

now she really hates the fact that God could take away someone's life that easy.

chaeyoung always thought that God is a selfish creature, us being below and forgiving, and Him being all goofy and unrecognizable.

she's not an atheist or anything, she just stopped believing.

life is also unfair like Him, but she knew that it's fair.

what a nonsense thought.

her mind fucks her up almost into a coma when jungkook stops his trance.

"why did you stop?" chaeyoung asks and the stunned boy points at a certain area. chaeyoung follows his fingers as her eyes glistens at the sight.

cherry blossoms.

she looks at jungkook once again and she sees how his eyes sparkle with the pink petals.

chaeyoung founds herself smiling because of his cuteness.

"you love cherry blossoms?" jungkook answers with a nod. chaeyoung holds his hands which caught jungkook off guard.

"what? where are we going?" he asks her as she drags him with her. "you love cherry blossoms right?" jungkook's brows furrow, "then let's dance with it!"

chaeyoung stops her tracks once the both of them are at the middle of the cherry blossom tree.

she fishes out her phone on her pocket (her phone is connected to an earphones btw!) she picks out a song which kinda reminds her of how tough life is, but despite its hard condition,

there's always someone who you can lean into.

jungkook blushes as she tucks in the earphone on his ear and the other pair is in her's.

she places her hands on his shoulder.

and he hesitantly puts his hands on her slender waist.

when i was younger i saw my daddy cried and cursed at the wind.

the music sways with every move they made. they dance on the madolen tune, moved softly, whilst looking at each other's eyes, the pink flowers leaving drops on their head.

his heart shouldn't feel like this but he knew he's trapped on her gaze.

he broke his own heart and i watched as he reassemble it.

jungkook stares at her features.

she's so beautiful. was all he could think of. his heart races when she smiles at him,

"aruemdawo." he whispers, chaeyoung blushes but she didn't hide it.

she's sure that for the first time in her life, this is the most beautiful thing that ever happened to her.

and my mommy swore that she would never let herself forget.

"i thought i would never feel this alive anymore," chaeyoung says and jungkook leans closer to her, "why?" he asks and she giggles, as the tears fall down her cheeks.

"maybe because you didn't come yet." she sobs,

"but you are here now."

and that was the day that i promised, i'll never sing of love if it does not exist.

"thank you." she caress his cheeks and jungkook stays the same.

but darling, you are the only exception

leaning closer to chaeyoung, he closes his eyes feeling his lips laying softly on her's.

both of their hearts ignite with their own feelings.

you are the only exception

their lips move with the music. it's beautiful and yet sad. but they didn't stop their passion just by that.

we all know that leaving someone will destroy our happiness and tries healing it with pain.

the thought of jungkook never coming back will always be in her head.

and that is what chaeyoung fears the most.
