FALLEN ANGEL
Jungkook x Taehyung
I.
A young boy named Jungkook is a lonely boy from their village. A boy who kept himself away from people because of his illness. His body is so weak that he gets tired of walking out of his house. His body is like a glass that needs to be taken care of everytime. The boy can only walk around his room and watch other children playing outside. He envied them for being happy and healthy.
"Jungkook?" The young boy's mother called out for him. He glanced over his mother and saw her holding a glass of water and a medicine. He took a deep sigh, it's time to drink medicine , again. Jungkook took his medicine without a problem, then looked outside his window again. He just wants to play like others too.
His mother seems to notice Jungkook's sad face. His mother smiled , caressing the boy's hair softly. "You wanna go outside?" She asked with her usual soft voice. Jungkook looked at her then nodded his head slowly. "Don't worry. You'll be able to go out soon, Jungkook. Don't lose hope, okay? Your family loves you" with that, she left. That's what his mother always tell him. But jungkook doesn't mind at all. Those words made him strong too. To distract himself, Jungkook reads a lot of books. Because it feels like he's going in an adventure just by reading. He keeps telling himself that he will be strong and play with others too. And soon, he will also go outside and travel just like the book that he reads.

And at that night, he saw a light from the sky, going down to the ground. 'is it a shooting star?' Jungkook thought to himself. "if it is, i should make a wish!"
II.
The next thing that Jungkook see in the morning is a guy laying down on the other bed next to him. He sat and looked at the guy's feature. He is beautiful for a guy , he hasn't seen this kind of face since he can't go outside. While staring at the guy, the sleeping guy slowly opened his eyes, he got shocked when he saw Jungkook so he suddenly got up
"w-who are you?" The guy asked. Jungkook smiled at him and said
"You're awake now! I'm Jungkook. My father saw you collapsed while he is on his way home so he brought you here"
Then suddenly, Jungkook's door opened, revealing his mom with a glass of water and medicine again. She smiled at the boys then gave the medicine to Jungkook.
"what is that?" The guy asked. "It's a medicine for Jungkook. Jungkook is sick so he needs to take medicine everyday" Jungkook's mom said and soon left the room. Jungkook asked the guy several questions. He found out the guy's real name. He is Taehyung , Jungkook already considered him as his friend. For the first time, Jungkook found a friend, someone he can talk his about his thoughts and hobbies.
"You have an illness, right? What is it?" Taehyung asked him. The younger one smiled and said "I have a very weak heart. I get too tired easily so i can only stay in my room. I never went outside" with a sad tone and face from Jungkook, Taehyung can really see that he is sad.
"But i have a book that can take me to an adventures! I read it so i can go out even if it's just by reading. I will be better soon and i can go outside!" Taehyung smiles at the younger's positivity. It is really clear and obvious that he is sad but he still kept an happy image.
"Do you want me to take you out? Let's go to an adventure like what's in your book"
III.
After 3 days of being friends, Jungkook learned more about the world. Taehyung is really a nice guy , Jungkook is happy.
They managed to tell Jungkook's parents about what Jungkook wants so they went out the house. Taehyung is taking good care of Jungkook. Jungkook get to see a place where water is really huge and wide, the ocean. Jungkook saw a lot of animals that he always want to see. And also flowers that they didnt have on their house. For 3 days of going out, Jungkook is really happy. But he tried to calm down because he has a weak heart , getting too excited is bad for him.
It is now the third day , sun is setting. They're both staring at the sky on the window. Jungkook is really happy that Taehyung is here. His very first friend.
"Before you came, i saw a falling star. So i wished. I think my wish came true"
Jungkook said while smiling, staring outside. "What's your wish?" Taehyung asked.
"I wished for my happiness. I want to be happy. And when you came, you showed me that i can be happy" Taehyung smiled at that. Taehyung is happy that he can make someone happy because of him. But after every happiness, sadness awaits. And Taehyung is really aware of that.
"right! I didnt asked you this one yet. Where did you came from, hyung?"
Taehyung went silent for a while. He don't want to tell Jungkook his secret. Something horrible is going to happen.
"i came from a world where only happiness exists. It is very bright and peaceful. I'm an angel" Taehyung suddenly said, making Jungkook gasped. Jungkook haven't heard about angels before.
"Angels are supposed to be good guys, but i committed a sin. So they ripped of my wings and sent me here as a punishment." Taehyung said with a smile on his face, yet sadness is visible on his eyes. Taehyung took his shirt off and turned around. Showing his ripped wings to the boy.
"And for 3 days , at sunset. I'll be saying goodbye" Jungkook started to tear up because of that. "G-goodbye?" Jungkook mutters and Taehyung only nodded his head. "This is my punishment, kook. Sinners like me shouldn't exist"
Jungkook's eyes widen as he saw taehyung turning bright, his body slowly ripped off to pieces like he is burning. Taehyung slowly fades in front of him.
"N-no! We still have more adventures to go! I'm still going to be better!" Jungkook hugged Taehyung, the angel is still slowly fading.
"W-why do you have to dissapear before i'll die?!" Jungkook is literally crying. He can't lose his best friend. He can't lose his happiness.
"The falling star that you saw back then, is me." Jungkook shakes his head as he hugged him tight.
But it's too late. Taehyung is really fading. But before he completely fade , he said these words to Jungkook.
"I hope you'll find happiness soon"
