Chapter 36

A holiday

The day has come...

Or the week, I guess.

Today is Monday, the first day of the first holiday this semester. I will leave to meet my parents and siblings. I have one older sister and a little sister. My parents wanted us to meet again after a long time.

I was still doubting about not inviting Jungkook with me. He wasn't mad about it or anything or hurt, but I felt like I was leaving something behind.

After all, his grandma is the only person he has besides me. And I also would like to stay here and spend the holidays with them.

That wouldn't be so bad either.

But knowing my mom, she has already prepared all kinds of food for all of us, and I don't want them to go to waste.

Inviting Jungkook would be too early in my opinion. We have only been dating for a short time, and we haven't said those three words to each other.

I care about him a lot, but I want to make sure everything is ''clear'' before I introduce him to them.

I was packing my suitcase when Jungkook came inside. He left for his run in the morning because he felt like doing so. But I didn't think he'd come back here.

''You're packing already?'' he asked when he saw me packing in my room. He took a glass of water and walked to me. ''I thought you were there for two days.''

I sighed. ''We talked about this, remember?''

He sat down on my bed and put the glass on my nightstand. ''You didn't mention the whole week.''

''Jungkook, I did. I did tell you many times and worried about how you'll handle yourself without me for a week,'' I sighed even more deeply now.

I know where this is going.

''Well, I thought it was a joke. Can you please stay there for one night?''

I zipped up my suitcase and put it on the floor. ''It takes hours for me to get there. I can't just go and leave immediately.''

''Do you care about me?'' He stood upright in front of me and looked at me in the eyes. ''If you care about me, you come back sooner.''

''Jungkook, now you're being unreasonable and selfish. You said it yourself, you will spend time with your grandma and Jimin,'' I walked out of my room, dragging down my suitcase while hearing him coming after me.

I stopped and looked at him. ''This isn't fair. You can't blackmail me with our relationship and my family,'' I said, and he looked away.

I walked up to him and grabbed his chin to face me. ''I don't want to fight. I can't just leave miles away if I know we had a fight that we didn't solve. It's just a week. We can call every day. And I'll be back before you know it.''

Despite my efforts, he didn't look slightly okay with my leaving. I seriously don't get it what's the problem here. Two days ago, he was fine with me leaving him behind and seeing my family.

Now all of a sudden, it feels like a damn breakup.

''Jungkook, seriously, what's the problem here?''

He murmured. ''Nothing.''

''Clearly, it is nothing when you're acting like a selfish little kid. You were fine with this a few days back. What changed you?''

He didn't answer me. He didn't even look at me. I was growing frustrated.

''My bus will leave any minute now. Can you just put this aside for a second and kiss me? I need to go Jungkook.''

I asked just in case because I indeed wanted to kiss him. Once again, he didn't respond.

He was staring at his feet when I had already opened the door and put my jacket on. Despite not getting the approval, I tiptoed to his face and tried to give him a kiss.

But he turned his head away, and I ended up kissing his cheek. I see.

''Lock the door when you leave and check if you have anything important.'' That was the last thing I said before I walked out the door.

I didn't like this.

Not even one bit.

I'm already regretting this.

I'm sorry Jungkook.
