24. A Best friends Wise Words

[Edited]

It's been the worst month ever.

One of the hardest months I've had in a while. During the time I wallowed in self hatred, guilt. Trying to claw my way out of my own mind that was clouded with a remorseful conscious.

Jin took me under his wing, allowing me to stay at his apartment for the time being. I couldn't bare to be under the same roof as Jungkook without breaking down and I was pretty sure he never wanted to see me again. 

Especially after the fight that broke out once we had gotten back to his place that day.

--

Jungkook limped into the house after refusing any more aid from Jin and I. He stormed in like a hurricane, screaming for all of his maids to leave at once. They all dropped everything and scurried out with terrified expressions. 

I followed behind Jungkook quietly, making sure he didn't hurt himself on his hobbling journey to the kitchen.

"Y/n..." Jin warned warily as he trailed my path from behind. 

Jungkook was clearly hurting and he had every right to be upset with me. I let myself get manipulated again, let my emotions get the best of me when all that should have mattered was Jungkook. He became my safety, my source of comfort, so much so that seeing him this damaged has caused my mind to jumble around like I was truly in his words a "stupid lost puppy."

He opened up the fridge with so much force it caused the various containers inside that Gustave made sure to label clink together roughly, knocking over a ketchup bottle in the process but he just left it on the floor and reached for the pitcher of water. Jungkook didn't even bother with a cup, lifting the pitcher with shaky hands to chug.

"Jungkook, we should talk," I half whispered, tone laced with concern. 

Before I could say any more Jungkook chucked the pitcher of water, glass shattering everywhere as it breezed passed my head and smashed against the wall behind me. The sound of the tiny shards dropped like pins while sliding across the smooth marble floor. I let out a yelp as Jin ran over to where I was standing.

"Jungkook!" Jin shouted, arms encircling my trembling body. "You need to calm the hell down!"

"Calm down? Calm down?!" Jungkook let out a maniacal laugh that caused another surge of tremors to wrack through my body. 

He had always been so sweet, well, part snarky asshole, but nonetheless so calm, endearing. This wasn't the Jungkook I grew feelings for.

"I just found the woman I'm in love with back with her ex! Look at my face Jin, I have a conference tomorrow! People are expecting me to go on stage and talk about our new collection. You think this shit will heal by then?!"
