A Hundred Days with Jeon Jungkook

Chapter 3| Breaking the Rule

"I'm not lying!! I really love Eun Ae."

Some of you may find it cute, some don't, and probably I am one of them. Whenever I hear the word 'love' from Jungkook's mouth, I get stung with pain from the thought he was only faking it.

I smiled.

"Come on, I know you've been longing to meet my parents!"

"Am not!" I whined.

With that, he hauled me downstairs, firmly squeezing my hand.

He knocked on his parents' room, every knock made my heart beat faster.

"Yes? Oh, Jungkook! Honey!" His mother welcomed her son with a big hug, and seems to it, his father looked pretty much unhappy.

"Good Morning, Mrs. Jeon, Mr. Jeon..My name is Kang Eun Ae."

"What a pleasant lady! We are so delighted to have you here, my dear." She shook my hands. "Right, Honey?"

His father nodded and smiled.

"So, where are you guys off to?" His father, finally spoke up.

"Home." Jungkook answered, looking as if he wasn't interested.

"Well, since the kids are here, shall we go out for lunch?" His mother offered.

I agreed, it was my pleasure to spend time with his parents, anyway.

Jungkook, who came from a very rich family, wasn't like his parents at all. His parents were like wow. They were the most sophisticated and sassiest parents I ever met!

Jungkook is just plain and simple. Which is why I began to secretly like him. But one thing is, he was not very happy throughout the ride. He just held my hands tightly along the way.

Do you imagine that? We rode a beautiful Mercedes with a beige suede interior to a fancy italian restaurant.

It's like a fairy tale, I'm like a delusional Cinderella, coming out of my magical (and super luxurious) carriage a.k.a Jungkook's parents' car; with my dorkiest prince who doesn't have any idea about my feelings.

Taking a small step from the uncomfortably expensive car to the restaurant that seemed to be inhabited by elites, Jungkook squeezed my hands tighter. It didn't hurt, but I felt the tension, he seems to be very mad.

He looked at me, piercing my insides. I think he was trying to say something.

"W-why?" I murmured. His parents, looked at Jungkook, "What is it, son?"  Jungkook's mother asked, worriedly.

Without any word, he tugged me closer to him, enough that I can hear his constantly fast heartbeats. He held my face, and I felt blood, blood was rushing up to my face.

What the fuck Jeon Jungkook you mean flirt!

He kissed my cheek and we stayed like that for almost two minutes, with his parents right in front of us, shocked.

"Run away with me." He whispered as our faces parted away from each other.

Confused, I stared at him. He winked at me, as if he's saying "Just trust me this time." Like so, I did. I'll trust you, Jungkook, Like I've always did.

He secretly unlocked the car's door and held my hand tighter.

"1.."

"T-that was very sweet.. You two make a good couple.." His mother said, almost sourly and fake. His father, didn't react.

"2..."

I grinned as a sign of gratitude, even though she didn't seem sincere at all.

"3!" Jungkook pulled the knob and dragged me out, we ran and ran away, even though I had no idea why and where were we going.

Surprisingly, I saw big men in suits chasing us. Is this how Jungkook lived? He lived luxuriously but it feels miserable.

He ran faster, tagging me along. I started to cry, because I felt scared. What are they going to do with me?

We kept running away until the scary men lost track of us.

Sobbing, my legs collapsed from fatigue and pain. I looked horrible. The delusional Cinderella I was from before turned into the real Cinderella. I was dirty and haggard. I didn't know what to do.

Jungkook knelt just in front of me, holding my face close to his again. He stuck his forehead to mine, and he hushed me.

Stop it.

"Stop crying.." He kissed my tears away.

Jungkook, please.

"I'm sorry." He smiled.

I sobbed louder, because I felt hurt even more than before.

"I'm sorry I kept hurting you like this."

"Please, just hold on to me, Eun Ae, don't let go of me."

I rested my head on his shoulder, still crying.

"I desperately need you."

Stop shaking my heart , Jungkook.

I looked up at him, he started crying too.

"Because I love you."

My eyes widened in shock, and before I could react, he kissed me.

Is this a dream?

If it was,

Please don't ever wake me up.
