project jeon + jungkook

+saturday+

the sun shined through jia's bedroom window. she had no idea what time it was, but she was willing to bet it was sometime in the afternoon. she lied on her bed lifeless, the memories of yesterday replaying over and over again in her head.

hansol left her on the sidewalk that day. she burst into tears as she ran back to her house. she flew through the front door, right passed jungkook who tried to catch her. "jia! jiadaye!" he called out as he ran up the stairs, after her. "jia wait!" she ran into her room and slammed the door closed, making sure to lock it. she slid down the door, sat on the floor and began to cry. jungkook pounded on the door from the other side, begging her to open up. "jia open up! jia please!" he jiggled the doorknob in frustration, "jiadaye open the door!", he banged on the door in between pleads. she didn't say a word.. she sat there in silence with her back against the door that viciously shook. minutes passed and she felt pressure slide down the door and heard a small thump on the other side. she assumed jungkook sat against the door as well. she hugged her legs close to her chest as she whimpered. "jiadaye.." he spoke softly, "please...", he begged, "open the door.. i'm sorry jia, i really am.. just let me see you. let me help you.. i can't stand the fact that you're crying on the other side of this door and i can't do anything about." she wanted so badly to open the door and let him comfort her.. but that's how she got into this situation in the first place. why was she so weak when it came to him? she wanted to be hugged.. she wanted to be held so bad but she couldn't let that happen. she let jungkook get too close. a tear rolled down her cheek as she sniffled. a couple hours passed and she was finally sure that he left. before he did, he bid his goodbye, "you can't stay in there forever.." he sighed, "please make sure you eat." he groaned. she could just picture him running his hands through his hair and tilting his head back in frustration. "i'm sorry jiadaye." she listened closely as his footsteps faded into silence. the faint sound of the front door being opened and closed was heard. she burst into tears again. even though he was on the other side of the door before, he made her feel better just knowing he was there. now she was alone. she slowly stood up and cracked the door open a bit, making sure he was actually gone this time. she heard him walking around the house earlier and wasn't sure why- she tried opening the door a bit more but hit something that was on the other side. she slipped through her door and panned down at the food at her feet. so thats what he was doing.. she stared at the cup of instant noodles and banana milk on the floor. why did he have to be so thoughtful, it frustrated her. she picked the noodles and milk up and made her way to the kitchen. she stood over the trash can and stared at the noodles with a frown. she knew she couldn't possibly stomach any food at the moment. she felt so ill from all the recent events that she would immediately throw it up. she threw the noodles away with a pang of guilt. she kept the banana milk though. she dragged her feet back up the stairs and back to her bed. she lied down and set her banana milk by her phone on her nightstand. her phone vibrated a couple of times. it was jungkook. she turned it off without reading the messages he sent. she rubbed her tired, red, and puffy eyes before they fluttered shut.

she bit at her bottom lip to prevent from crying. her phone was still shut off. she hadnt eaten since friday lunch. she simply wasnt hungry. all she did was drink banana milk and water. she wondered if hansol tried contacting her since then.. or jungkook. her thoughts were interupted by the doorbell. she sighed and let it ring a couple more times. she ignored it and shut her eyes. the ringing finally stopped and she fell asleep once again.

she was awaken by the door bell again. time had passed since her little nap, it was a bit darker outside. did the visitor stay this whole time? the bell rang again. she groggily stood up and wrapped herself in a burito with her blanket before dragging herself down the stairs. it rang a few times as she made her way to the door. she huffed at the impatient being. she took a deep breath as she opened the door- "eu-?!" she was taken aback when her best friend engulfed her in a hug. "im so sorry daye.." she rubbed circle's on jia's back.
