Mendacity || KTH

47.

We sat down at the table I was with Jimin, Jaeeun, she was the one who cooked, well ever since Mrs. Lee left us, we had to bare the not-so-delicious food, the maids weren't as professional as she was. Well yeah, she left to Mehi ,even though she didn't want at the beginning,she didn't want to Leave Tae, but my uncle promised her to bring her here daily and he sticked to his words.

We sat down eating, the sound of spoons clinking with the dishes as we ate silently, I haven't eaten since morning and even though the food wasn't that good, I found it delicious, well yeah they were right when they said that Hunger made food extremely delicious and eatable.

"Did you like the food?", asked Jaeeun as she shifted her gaze continuously between me and Jimin,

"It's great honey !", Jimin exclaimed which made her blush, yeah their relationship grew better and they kind of started getting more comfortable with their relationship infront of me, I gotta admit, the whole stress that Jimin went through helped them get closer due to Jaeeun's continuous attempts to cheer him up, well he got a friend and a girlfriend in the envelope of cheering up.

I admired them as they were looking at each others-yeah they were comfortable around me to that extinct- I really felt like a third wheel, like everyone around me were coupling, there was Mrs. Lee with my uncle, and here is Jimin is Jaeeun, and their is Hosoak with Minji and I'm stuck out there with the one I love hanging between life and death, each pulling him to its direction.

I really have missed him like hell, I've always seen Taehyung as the powerful and confident person, who feared nothing, but the figure of him lying on that bed changes everything, I saw the weak Taehyung that could do nothing but wait for God's mercy to come whenever God wants it to.The fact that he'll be awake at any minute would cheer me up, but then I remembered, it has been already a month and he didn't wake up yet, what if it takes another month? Year?

I only saw him talking to me in my dreams, that's why I have loved sleeping so much, everyone thought that I have became lazier, but they didn't know that I loved to sleep because it's the only place I could catch up with Taehyung as they do with their beloved ones. Not that I'm envying them or something,dont get me wrong, I really love them, Jaeeun and Jimin, Hobi and Minji, but I kind of felt jealous, the fact that they could embrace each other whenever they want, and kiss each other whenever they felt to, and sleep beside each other whenever they decided to, everything made me feel lonely despite having them by my side. I used to sleep beside him like we used to do, but I never felt his breathe across my neck like always, and I always hug him but never felt him hugging back, and I always kissed him but he never responded or gave in.

The more I wished he would wake up, the more I feared what will be his reaction if he saw me,even though he has confessed his feelings, but I didnt know why I was so anxious to meet him after he wakes up and the fear of rejection. Or maybe I was overthinking?

"So how's work?", Jaeeun questioned Jimin, they were talking the whole time while I was spacing out, I think they got used to it.

"Everything is great, we have recovered all of our loss and rebuild everything better than its previous form", he had his mouth full while answering the question, I gulped the little lump in my throat, even though a month has already passed, but I still feel guilty about everything,"I'm so happy", continued Jimin,"I want to see Tae's reaction when he wakes up and discovers the progress we made during his absence", he smiled proud of himself, "He left the Gretchia in safe hands", he showed his clean palm as he carassed his own face praising himself.

I chuckled at his childish act and gently stepped on his foot under the table which made him wince in pain,"Ouch!", he looked at me in desbelief,"I'll tell Taehyung about everything you have done since the very last day he had been in the coma", he wined like a child,

I couldn't just believe, how hard he was trying to cheer me up, with all of this acts,everytime,and sometimes I could feel my eyes tearing, but I directly sweep it off, trying not to act so dramatic,

I wanted to reply but I heard a continuous knockings on the door which caught the three of us in shock, suddenly, the door swung open revealing a guard who was definitely out of breath with red face,

"What is it?", Jimin stood from his chair walking towards the guard,

He was panting with exhaustion as he placed a hand on the wall and other on his heart to easen it up,"T-the G-Gret-tch", he was stuttering, his fast breath prevented him from keeping his talking on,

We all gasped at the mentioning of Taehyung and with that attitude of the guard I was definitely going to kill him due to his slowness-even though he was panting-, Jimin held him by his collar gritting his teeth,"What's wrong with him?",

I couldn't tolerate and wait for him to talk, I would have been by his room by now if I have ran since the beginning, but his words paralysed me and revoked my nerves, I felt my body getting weak and my tears were gathering at the corner of my eye, I wanted to run, but I was glued in my own position,

"He woke up", breathed the guard,"The Gretch has woken up",
