Our New World, Cannibals -VKOOK- *On Hold*

2.) Skipping Blindly

it's about what it can become."

"Get back to work, cattle horse!" A loud mocking voice yelled out into the field of tired men and women. He was obviously the one who was in charge of all these workers, or might you call slaves.

I myself wasn't a worker in this field like all the other, but someone was. I just followed silently behind a small scrawny kid that they called buck wheat. He was one of the field works who was higher up in power. Which explains why he had no muscle on his lanky limbs.

"Break time, you have half an hour!" The loud voice rung out across the field again. Time wasn't really a concept in the capital. Everyone just ate when they could –or when they are told to– and even went to work once the sun hit the sky from behind the mountains.

"Hey Yoongi." I smile brightly down at my brother's tired face. He got put into the fields because of bad behavior, he took a guy out after he assaulted me. Yoongi's name within his work was sugar cube, he was very pale and on the thinner side. However, my twin has been working hard for quite some time and so now he has built up arms and is on the tanner side of skin colors.

I hand lunch box over to the blonde haired male, making him smile and nod in thanks. Yoongi never talked when I came to deliver lunch, he was either too tired or too ashamed that I saw him in a violent rage.

I bid my farewell to my brother and make my way over to the other friend of the field, cattle horse.

"I work hard, don't I?" A broken and small voice flouted up to my ears. Hoseok was unfortunately positioned into this job, and named cattle horse. His name was a sick joke made by his overseer based in how Hoseok's face reminded him of a horse. It upset the male at first but then he grew an intense motivation to show that big jerk up. It surely was hard in the orange haired males eyes.

"I believe that you do Hope." I sweetly say as I give the other lunch box to the brooding boy in front of me. Hope became a nick name that we have the said male because of his positivity in this tough situation.

"How about, when you finish here than we will dye your hair." I say as I see him run his calloused hands through his dry and fading hair. Orange really was a good color on Hoseok, it reminded people of the setting sun. A very beautiful and serene sight.

Hoseok smile gratefully up at me and he nods in excitement about my offer.

"Hey our break is almost over and I think you have to head back to work now." The smile was now wiped off of Hoseok's face and replaced with a determined look in his eyes. I nod in agreement, I do need to get back now. Also for those of you who felt like it has yet to be 30 minutes, well than you are right. Like I said, people have no concept of time and so they say whatever they say and start whenever they felt like it has been enough time.

"Ah Kim, your back." A female voice took over my train of thought. It has been a handful of minutes since I arrived back at work and I was already bored.

I worked in the food section of the capital. Right now all I do is calculate the number of crops that have been collected within the weeks. I calculate how many people that need to be fed and what nutrients they need. And sometimes they make me deliver food for my friends and for some patients at the hospital. I got the calculating job because I was good at numbers, but Namjoon was better so he got the better job. The only good thing was that I could eventually learn how to cook and prepare some dishes.

I ignored the girl's voice as I got back to calculating all my given data. It was a long and boring process and I did crave human interaction, but not with her. This girl was a major slut. At first, she thirsted after me and would attempt to seduce me, a gay male. But, after Jungkook came to visit me, her attention was locked into him and she went extra hoe mode.

And now she annoys me with constant questions about the brunette boy. Which I never bother to answer, and when I do it either sarcastic or a simple yes to a two answer question. Simply put, I really hate this girl and she irritates me to the maximum.

"Hey is the hot hunk coming by today?" The girl, Cindy, says as she twirls a strand of her freshly dyed brown hair. She recently dyed it after seeing Jungkook, who adorned a similar color.

I just lift my shoulders in a half hearted shrug. To be honest I never really knew when he would visit and when he would not, and if I did I wouldn't tell her that. But Cindy is a stubborn girl who doesn't give up.

"How can you not know?! Aren't you guys like best friends or something?!" Cindy spits all over my desk and she whines about my vague answer. Gosh this girl was a handful that I would never ever touch. I mean to a straight guys opinion she is probably hot, until they see her attitude. But to a guy who has no interest in girls or boobs, she is not very attractive.

"Hey tater tots!" Speak of the devil and he shall arrived. The man of the current moment Jeon Jungkook had just walked into the building, and man did he look good. He came in all sweaty and breathless which –for some strange reason– made me breathless. When Jungkook made eye contact with me and flashed a bright smile it made my heart skip a couple of beats.

Weirdly enough these type of stuff have been happening a lot whenever Jungkook came to see me at work. The even stranger thing was that I didn't know how or why it started happening, it just happened.
