Once school ended Kendra dragged me to the dress store. We have been in the store for about 30 minutes and I'm already getting impatient.

"Can we go home, please?" I ask, slouched in a chair. Kendra rolls her eyes at me and pulled me out of the chair.

"Maybe If you would look for a dress we would be done, I've found mine."

I suck air through my teeth and walked towards the dresses. As I scan the dresses one catches my eye. It's a black two-piece dress with a lace long sleeve top and a long skirt.

"I like that one," I say pointing to the beautiful dress. The cashier packaged it then we paid.

"Okay, now we have to hurry up and go to your house to get ready.

We enter the house in a rush, running past my confused mother. "Hey girls, are you hungry?"

"No thank you Momma, but can I go to a party today?" I ask with a persuading smile. My mom stares at me for a second then starts laughing.

"I'm serious," I cross my arms with a frown. My mom stops laughing when she sees my face.

"You are? Oh my goodness, you are!" She runs and hugs me. "I've been waiting for you to get out more."

"So, that's a yes?" I question tilting my head to the side.

"Of course, go get ready Kendra is probably waiting for you," she says while pushing me towards my room and shutting the door behind her.

I come face to face with Kendra, wearing her dress, looking at me with a confused look, "What took you so long, hurry up and get ready." I nod then start towards the bathroom. I got dressed and decided to not bring my cane because it's not mandatory that I bring it with me everywhere until I only have half of my vision left, plus it's only a few hours I should be fine but I put on my sunglasses.

After an hour we both made our way downstairs towards my beaming mom, "You two look beautiful."

"Thank you," Kendra and I say in sync.

My mom started taking a few pictures and tell us to be safe then sent us on our way.

"This is beautiful," I say in amazement while we started making our way through the building. Kendra nods in agreement.

Our train of thought gets cut short by a voice. "I'm glad you like it. Thank you for coming," The owner of the voice, Hobi, smiles at us.

"Thank you for inviting us," Kendra responds.

The other guys make their way to us. My eyes meet Jungkook's brown ones. "I thought you weren't coming," Jungkook states with a smirk, adjusting his black suit and burgundy dress shirt.

"Kendra talked me into coming," I say, motioning towards her causing her to smile.

"Or was it because you mi-," Jungkook started but Jin cut him off before he could ruin the moment. " We are glad she did." Suga and Namjoon just nod in agreement.

"Yeah and you two look beautiful," Jimin added with a smile causing to blush a little.

We both thanked them again and started walking to the dance floor.

"You like him," I state knowingly once the boys were out of sight.

"W-what?" Kendra studders.

"You heard me, you like Jimin," I smirk at her.

"I don't like him or anyone else," She lies.

"You don't have to lie to me, plus I think you two would be cute together," I smile at her.

She smiles and shrugs then drags me towards the dance floor. I'm letting the conversation go, we'll just finish it later. For about an hour we've been dancing and talking to people, I have to admit that I'm having a good time.

"Mind if I take her off your hands," Jimin asks with a smile, referring to Kendra. I smile back, "Sure, I'm going to go on the balcony for fresh air."

"You sure you're ok with being alone," Kendra asks in a concerned tone. I nod with a smile. The two in front of me start slow dancing. I slightly smile at them then started making my way to the balcony.

I take off my sunglasses since the sun wasn't out and not harsh glares were there. I sigh looking up at the stars, two, in particular, caught my eyes.

"Sebil & Jaebum," I smile pitifully at the sky. "I miss you, hopefully, you are watching over me."

I hear the balcony door open, but I continue to look forward.

"Are you okay?" I hear Jungkook voice. I turn my head slightly to look at him then turned my head back towards the sky, "Yeah, why'd you ask?"

"You crying," he states in a tone signaling that it was an obvious answer. I quickly touch my face, not realizing I was crying. He hands me his handkerchief.

"Wanna tell me what's wrong?"

"No," I deadpan. Jungkook frowns at my answer then sighs, "I just trying to help."

"Jaebum & Sebil."

"What?" He asks, confused.

"Jaebum is what's wrong," I say, making him even more confused.

"Who is that?"

"You want to hear a story," I say, changing the subject.

"Ok, I guess."

"There was this girl and boy who were best friends. They were going on a trip with their mom's who were also best friends. While they were on the road the girl got annoyed with the boy and their moms because they kept teasing her about liking her best friend, so she looked out the window. While she was looking out the window she saw some idiot driving on the wrong side of the road. She tried to call her mom or her best friends mom but it was too late. The girl woke up in the hospital, but the girl couldn't find her mom, best friend, or his mom. When she asked where they were the doctor told her they all died except her & her mom," I continue to look at the sky.

Why am I telling him this?

This is going to backfire on me.

The school will find out anyways.

"Is this a true story?" Jungkook asked his voice laced in concern.

"Yep," I say, emotionlessly.

"Is the girl alive now?"

"Physically? Of course. Spiritually and emotionally? Not in the slightest," A single tear comes out my eye.

"Do you know her? What is she like now, is she okay?" Jungkook asks, scanning my face.

I turn towards him and let out a pitiful laugh, "Tell me, do I look okay? What am I like now?" I say defensively through my tears.

"Toya, I'm sor-," He starts but I cut him off.

"No! No, you are not. No one cares about me but Kendra and my Mom. Yet the only reason they care is because the accident made me start losing my eyesight, people only care because of pity," I yell as he pulls me into his embrace.

"I'm sorry," he keeps repeating caressing my hair. I pull away and start wiping my tears.

"You know even if I didn't start losing my vision everything would still be blurry and gloomy in my eyes."

"Why is that?" he asks, pulling my hands away from my face.

"Because I lost the love of my life, Jaebum was my light in the dark."

"I know I can't replace him, but I can at least try and make everything better."

"What are you talkin-" He cuts me off by connecting our lips.
