AUTOMATON - Jeon Jungkook [ JJK ]

- four -

"Jungkook, it's time to eat," Yeonwoo remarked.

Jungkook rolled his eyes.

How can he even eat in this situation?

"No, thanks," he said politely with a fake smile plastered on his lips.

"You haven't eat since you arrived here. It's late already," she said while looking down at Jungkook who was still sitting on the edge of the bed, frustrated.

"I'm not hungry."

"But you have to eat.

"You can eat by yourself, I'm not hungry."

"No, you have to eat."

Jungkook sighed in frustration. "CAN YOU JUST--"

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

Those words from Mr. Kim were echoing in Jungkook's head, which prevented him to yell at the girl in front of him.

Jungkook closed his eyes for a while then sighed. "Listen, Kim Yeonwoo. You can go and eat now, I will stay here. Besides, I'm tired, I need to rest."

She frowned and shook her head. "You should eat."

"This robot is so fcking stubborn," Jungkook muttered to himself. "Such a pain."

"Jungkook," she called again. "I'm not stubborn. My father says that I'm a kind girl."

"Fine fine! Let's go eat now, shall we?!" Jungkook finally gave in and stood up. He harshly opened the door before going out of the room aggresively.

His mind didn't focus on where he was going until a moment later, he realized that he was lost in this gigantic place.

Jungkook was rich, his family was extremely rich. But Yeonwoo's father was richer. He had this whole gigantic palace, only filled with himself, his daughter, and countless of bodyguards.

Jungkook just realized that this whole place was filled with so many expensive things. They only had high-class furnitures and decorations.

He groaned and ruffled his hair in frustration. This kind of situation just didn't make sense to him at all. He was having fun with his friends just now and was suddenly being kidnapped by a psychopath who happened to be a genius scientist. What's more insane was that he was 'married' with his daughter who turned out to be a weird human being control by her own father.

Nobody would believe that the girl was actually being controlled if they were in the same situation as Jungkook's. So did Jungkook believe it? Of course not. He was just playing along swith Mr. Kim. But his words that reminded him to be careful, made Jungkook think twice before treating Yeonwoo rudely. It's just, Mr. Kim had those piercing psychopathic eyes.

"Lost?" A deep voice startled Jungkook.

He turned around to see Mr. Kim, still with his usual creepy smile standing right in front of him, wearing a doctor's jacket.

Jungkook held his nape as he started to become nervous. "Yeah."

"Come, I'll take you to the kitchen."

Jungkook just followed him silently, didn't dare to do anything since Mr. Kim's eyes were somehow terrifying for Jungkook to see.

"Didn't I remind you?" Mr. Kim asked without looking at Jungkook, still continuing his steps. "That I can hear what my daughter hears?"

Jungkook kept silent.

"Don't tell me that you forget about it? Because I heard that you just called my beautiful daughter a robot."

Jungkook widened his eyes. His hands suddenly started to get sweaty as Mr. Kim stopped his track and looked at Jungkook with a piercing, death glare.

"Answer me, young man," he said in a low, deep voice.

Jungkook didn't have a chance to answer because within a second, Mr. Kim had pushed him harshly towards the wall. His hands grabbed Jungkook's neck and pressed it. He was choking the younger.

"Don't you ever dare to throw harsh words to my daugher," he remarked. "She might not have feelings, but I have. As her father, I hate my daughter being called as a robot. She isn't a robot, she's a perfectly fine human being. Do you fcking get me, Jeon Jungkook?"

Jungkook tried to remove Mr. Kim's hands from him, but his grip was too strong. Jungkook could actually kick him and defended himself, but he didn't dare to do it. This man, was dangerous.

Jungkook was running out of breath. He started to suck for air as his face turned red. He couldn't breathe anymore.

Just when Jungkook thought he was going to faint due to the lack of air, the grip on his neck loosened, and soon, Mr. Kim made a few steps away from him. Jungkook coughed continuously as the air quickly rushed into his lungs again.

"So my son, let's go eat our dinner, shall we?" Mr. Kim gave him a smile as he pat Jungkook's shoulder two times before leaving him alone.

Jungkook stayed still on his place as he waited for Mr. Kim's figure to finally went out of his sight. He sighed in relief before touching his neck. He groaned painfully as it stung a lot.

He quickly searched for a way back and he luckily arrived in front of Yeonwoo's bedroom again. He opened the door carefully to find nobody inside the room. Slowly, he walked towards the dressing table to see his own reflection.

His breath was shaking when he saw two huge hand prints on his neck. They were red in color, but had a little of purple color in some areas. They would all turned completely purple or even blue the next morning, Jungkook was sure of that.

Jungkook sighed once again as his eyes were getting teary.

Fck, my life is in danger.
