A broken heart

Part 6: His House

After school, I always went to the washroom but that day, an unexpected girl came into the toilet.
Kim Sujung, with her rats. Just being the granddaughter of the Prime Minister, she thought she could do anything she wanted to. She was a narcissist and a spoiled brat who claimed to be the most beautiful girl in the university.
I wanted to throw up when I saw her arrogant face.

No one dared to overpower her. She'sa bully.
But, I did not give a fuck about her or who she is. I made my way out until she stopped me.

"Woahhh where do you think you are going?"
That was until I noticed that I'm surrounded by them.
"What do you want?", I asked her coldly.
"Ohh let me think..", she rested her hand on the chin,
"I remember.. who are you to shout at Jungkook oppa?", she crossed her arms.
A smirked on my face and I crossed my arms too, looking straight at her face.
"So what? It's none of your business and please Sujung.. you're acting as if you're his girlfriend. Stop the crap."

I could see the anger all over her stupid face. It just made me smirk more.
"So? Are you done?" I fake-yawned. "I don't want to spend my precious time here with you. So move." My voice went hard at the last word.

I took two steps until I was dragged by  two girls. They slammed me against the wall. It was one against four. Even though I tried my best to kick them off, I was overpowered. Sujung slapped me across the face until they pushed me onto the floor and started to kicked me all over, just because I yelled at a boy named Jeon Jungkook.

I felt like I could not breathe anymore.

They finally stopped and Kim Sujung kneeled down and said,
"That's what you get for insulting me and snapping at Jungkookie. Make sure you take that as a warning."

She stood up and they all left.
I felt like every bone in my body has been broken into pieces and I could not move. My lip was busted and my whole body hurt. But I didn't have a choice but to try and get up. With the energy I had, I got on my knees.
I groaned in pain, I started walking out of the washroom to the halls. My whole body hurt especially my abdomen area. I put my hand on my stomach, clutching it.

"Areumi-ssi?" I heard someone calling my name but I could not turn my head. My breathing became heavy.
The person reached me and it was Jungkook.
"What happened?" he checked on my condition, the worriness was written all over his face.
"What-" I stopped for a while since my chest hurt too. "are you- doing h-here-"
Never in my life had i thought that finishing a sentence would be this hard. It was then when I knew that my energy had drained. Everything was blurry.
Jungkook was saying something to me but I could not figure out a thing.

I passed out

When I opened my eyes, I saw myself in an unfamiliar room. The room had large cupboards, many soundboxes and a laptop. I glanced around and realised that i was in a master room, which was not mine. My eyes widened when I realized that I was not in my clothes.

I got up suddenly, and the pain came in which made me groan.
I leaned against the bed for a while, trying to breathe and calm myself down until I heard a knock on the door.
Jungkook came in with a tray.

"Hey.. are you awake now? How are u feeling?"

I blinked twice to make sure i wasn't dreaming.
"Umm what am i doing here with you?"
"You fainted remember?" He settled the tray on the table beside the bed and sat on the bed which was a little further away from where I am.
"I didn't know where your house was so I just brought you to my place. I'm sorry."

The kid's rich.

I didnt say anything.

"Here's your food. I don't cook well so I just order it for you." He scratched the back of his head, embarrassed.

"Ohh.. t-thank you.", I lifted myself up to sit straight to eat but my body said otherwise.
I let out another loud groan.
"Areum-ssi.. are you okay? You need painkillers."
He put the tray on his lap and started feeding me. I had no choice but to eat it. I was also very hungry. We just sat there with him feeding me.

"Who did this to you?"
"Its none of your business Jungkook.  So leave it", I replied.
He just continued feeding me.
"Who's Jimin?"
An unexpected question which made me look at him in shock. I was at loss of words.
"How do you know him?"
"Areum-ssi.. you mistaked me with Jimin the first day I got here. So can you tell me who he is?"
What should I say? The truth?
"He-uh.."
My eyes started tearing up.
 
No, no, Areum. This isn't the time to cry.

"Areum-ssi.. are you crying?"
"He.." then i snapped.
"He's none of your business."
"Nevermind", he signed and stood up.
After that, he got up when i asked,
"Yah, Jungkook."
"Hmm?"
"D-did y-you.. change-", I was sure he realised what i wanted to say. Instead, he laughed and said,
"Don't worry Areum-ssi, I am not that kind of guy. I called Steph over." , I saw his bunny smile before he left the room.

It was 6 pm. So I slowly got off the bed, changed into my clothes back and got out of the room.
"Where are you going?", I saw him infront of the TV.
The house looked very beautiful and big. It was indeed a villa.
"I am going back.", i replied.
"In this condition?"
"Do i have a choice?"
"Why are you so worried about your mom? Stephanie handled it well. She phoned your mother and told her that you will be at her house. Your mom is fine with it."
"I said i am going home and that's it!", i raised my voice which made the pain came in.
He seemed to have notice it. He walked towards me to help me.

"Please go and rest. You won't even make it out the door with this condition. Let me help you.", he placed his arm on my shoulder to get me back to the room.
"I guess you have to sleep here tonight."
"Then where are you gonna sleep?", i asked
"It's okay, there are lots of spare rooms. I can sleep in one of them.", he ruffled his hair while taking out his pillows. Then, I spoke.
"Yah Jungkook.." He looked at me.
"Thank you.." I stopped for a while.
"And sorry." I made it short.
"What are u sorry for?"
"For yelling at you. I didnt mean it-"
"U dun need to be sorry or be thankful. I will be here for you, no matter what."

What did he mean by that?

I gave him a confusing look.
"I mean.. we are friends, right? There's no sorry or thank you in a friendship.", he smiled softly, a little bit awkward too.

"Sleep well. We will talk about the assignment tomorrow.", he smiled at me innocently.
Oh yeah we have an assignment together.

"Good night." I smiled back in return.
He left and that was the time i realised one thing and asked myself:

Did I just smile at him??
