AUTOMATON - Jeon Jungkook [ JJK ]

- three -

Jungkook's POV

"What did you just say?" I asked, frowning at the man's word.

Mr. Kim smiled. "I will tell my daughter to choose one of the three of you to be her husband. Then the rest of you who are not chosen will be killed."

"YAH! ARE YOU CRAZY?!" I yelled, then muttered. "Psycopath."

I looked at the other two who were trembling violently. They were completely scared.

"I'm not crazy, and I'm not a psycho," he laughed. "I'm trying to become a good father for Yeonwoo. You see, the three of you are very good-looking and rich. Yeonwoo will like it."

My gaze landed on Yeonwoo. She didn't react or do anything. She just stood still on her place, staring blankly at the wall. She was acting just like a robot.

"Yah, Kim Yeonwoo. Answer me. Are you going to let your father do this?" I asked. She's our one and only hope since her father was completely out of his mind already.

For the first time, she looked at me eye-to-eye. She looked a bit confused. A second later, she tilted her head to the right as a sign that she couldn't understand my words.

"Now that you can't get out of here anyway," Mr. Kim smirked. "I will tell you a little secret of mine."

I growled. "Bullsht!"

"Calm down, young man. Don't you want to know my secret? My daughter right here," he pulled her closer and wrap his arm around her shoulder. "Is being controlled by me."

Silence.

He burst into laughter. "Look at your expression! It's too funny!"

I frowned even more.

"She doesn't have her own thoughts and feelings, everything is controlled by me," he laughed. "She's basically heartless and thoughtless."

This man was serioulsy starting to talk nonsense. I guess he was really sick mentally.

"Sweetheart," he called her daughter. "Choose, between the three of them. Who do you want to get married with?"

Her lifeless eyes scanned each of us. Then she looked at her father again.

"Don't worry, guys. I'm not controlling her right now. She will just choose randomly. So the lucky one will stay alive and become a husband to this beautiful lady next to me." He clapped happily while I rolled my eyes.

She started to lift her hand slowly. The other two guys were shaking their heads as I was just looking at her lazily.

I don't care anymore. What can I do anyway?

Just then, her index finger was pointing towards me. I blinked a few times to make sure that my life was just being saved.

Mr. Kim looked at her with a slight hint of confusion on his face. "Him? The troublemaker one? Are you sure?"

Yeonwoo nodded. "Yes, appa."

"Okay then," he smirked and looked at me. "You're lucky, young man."

I could hear the other two guys were pleading for mercy, but Mr. Kim seemed to not care about their pleadings at all.

I was about to say something that might save their lives when I heard two gun shots.

I closed my eyes for a few seconds before opening them again. I took a deep breath before I looked around.

They were dead, shot right on their heads.

Mr. Kim clapped his hands. "Yeay! Now that you will become her husband, I will let you go."

"Yeonwoo-yah, do anything you want with him, okay?" he smiled while ruffling her hair.

He was about to leave the room when he exclaimed. "Ah, right! I forgot. You two should kiss first. Aren't married couples supposed to kiss?"

I widened my eyes.

Fck no. I save this first kiss for someone I love in the future. Even I never let all those girls who dated me to kiss me.

Yeonwoo tilted her head as her attention went from her father to me.

I shook my head, pleading with my eyes that I didn't want to do it. But I guess she couldn't understand me cause in the next second, I could feel her lips crashing on mine.

It was just a simple peck actually, but still, that was the first time someone's lips landed on mine.

Mr. Kim clapped his hands after Yeonwoo pulled her face away from mine. I looked at her, still expressionless. I guessed her father was right, she was heartless and thoughtless.

"Good job, princess."

---

I couldn't believe this situation. I was stuck in Yeonwoo's bedroom, sitting on the edge on the bed while staring blankly at the floor. My phone was being taken, I had nothing.

But I couldn't give up, I should find a way to get out of here.

"What are you thinking about?" Yeonwoo's voice startled me.

I looked at her robotic expression. She was standing near me, looking down at me with a questioning look.

I forced a smile. "Oh, nothing."

"You seemed troubled," she said.

"I don't. It's fine," I lied.

"You're not fine."

"I'm fine."

"No, you're not."

"Yes, I am."

"No, you're--"

I sighed roughly. "Can you shut up? What do you think about my feelings when I'm being kidnapped by a psycopathic man, getting locked up in this house, and getting 'married' with a random heartless lady? My life is basically ruined if I can't find a way out of here."

Yeonwoo tilted her head. "How does it feel like?"

I groaned.

Agghhh-- there's no point talking to this human robot!

"Are you okay?" she asked again.

"Shut the fck up!" I snapped and glared at her. "You're so fcking annoying."

"I'm not annoying," she frowned.

Oh, she can frown? Haha

"My father said that I'm a beautiful kind girl," she said, still with a frown on her face.

I was just about to say something when the door to her room was opened, revealing an old man no other than Mr. Kim.

"Don't you dare keep swearing to my daughter," he warned, pointing his index finger at me. "You're her husband, treat her nicely."

I scoffed. "What? Husband? Since when am I her husband? Bullsht."

Mr. Kim seemed mad as he rushed towards me and pulled me up by my collar.

"You ARE her husband," he marked with a low voice.

I smirked and removed his hands harshly from me. "Fcking get me out of here, old man. I'm not a toy that your daughter can play with."

I thought he would punch me, but instead, he smiled, which successfully crept me out.

"Don't ever think of a way to get out of here. There are CCTVs everywhere," he said and removed the distance between us.

"And also, I can hear what Yeonwoo hears, and I can see what she sees. So be careful, young man."
