My Euphoria | JJK

17 | Plan

[Anna]

I set my phone down and tried to fall asleep.

But I couldn't.

When the screen lit up, I almost fell off the bed as I reached for it.

Obviously I cared way more that I wanted to admit to myself.

It was Namjoon.

N: I know you are upset, but please try to look at what's happened from JungKook's side. It's not easy trusting someone in this business. I hope you know how much he... we care about you, even if we can't always show you.

A: I know you do, and I care about all of you too, but this is between JungKook and me. I know you want to help, but this is on him.

I had enough for the day.

I couldn't deal with any more emotions.

Thankfully my brain agreed and let me fall asleep.

"Hyung, I have an idea," I said when Namjoon sat at the table to eat breakfast.

He didn't respond so I continued, "Anna said that she didn't really know me, well what if I make something for her that will help her get to know me, how I really feel."

"What did you have in mind?" He asked, trying to pour the milk into his cereal without spilling it.

"I don't know yet, I just know that I have to make it by myself and put my emotions in it." I said, lost in thought.

Namjoon laughed. "Dummy, do a special gesture, just for her, to show her how much you care."

"Well, duh. But what?" I stared back at him clueless.

He rolled his eyes in amusement. What was I missing here?

"What do you do best?" He asked, a smile still on his lips. He was just teasing me now.

I raised my shoulders.

"Are you perhaps not a singer?"

My eyes grew in size as I exclaimed, "I am going to write her a song!"

Hyung just nodded and I ran out of the kitchen.

Half-way through I stopped abruptly.

"But when could I sing it to her?"

Namjoon said, "She's most likely going to the CAS and I promise you that I will make sure she's going to be there, ok?"

I smiled widely and ran to my room.

I had a plan, now I only had to come up with a song.

No biggie, right?

I only had 2 more days left before I had to go back to L. A.

Catherine had already sent me my ticket and agreed to let me stay with her for a few more weeks.

I didn't hear from JungKook after he sent me an "I'm so sorry that I hurt you."

Not even Joon texted me back.

Maybe that was for the best.

They lived thousands of miles away and soon I was going to be teaching in a different country for a few months.

Yup, my dream came true. I got approved for international teaching. I was going to go help children learn English. I was soooo happy.

I wanted to text JungKook and tell him everything, but I restrained myself. I should forget him, forget them.
