porcelain doll

chapter 18

porcelain doll, chapter 18

after taehyung left, lisa sat there bored, missing the boy's presence.

sighing, she grabs the fairy tale and continued reading when she heard faint sounds of footsteps coming towards where she is.

alerted, she quickly stands up and attempted to put the book back on its place but failed to so she puts it halfway the shelf instead as the footsteps became closer.

lisa then runs towards taehyung's chair and sat there not moving an inch but didn't go unconscious as mrs. kim opened taehyung's bedroom door, her eyes falling at lisa's stone figure.

mrs. kim smiles as she approached the doll sitting on taehyung's chair, "i guess it was right to give you to taehyung. he's more lively now after you arrived." she said, caressing the doll's blonde hair before she proceeds to mop the already clean floor of taehyung's bedroom.

after mopping, mrs. kim wipes the sweat off of her forehead and walked out of the room to get the fan to dry the mopped floor.

lisa's eyes fall on the book she barely puts back on the shelf.

standing up from her seat, she tiptoed towards the bookshelf and pushed the book fully through the gap and was about to walk back to the chair when the door suddenly opened.

jisoo's eyes widened seeing the doll standing, more shockingly, moving on her own.

voices started to flood her mind making her grip on her aching head, whimpering in pain.

lisa's eyes were as wide as saucers seeing jisoo's state, she attempts to walk to her to help,

but the wet floor made her slip,

causing her to fall face first before she blacked out.

and shatter was heard.

meanwhile, taehyung ran upstairs as fast as he could, only to find jisoo fainting on the spot in which he quickly caught her before her head could meet the floor.

his eyes then landed on the figure laying on the floor, unconscious,

no head was left but shattered pieces of porcelain.

his mother came and gasp seeing jisoo's state, her eyes then widen to see lisa's body on the floor, her head shattered into pieces.

"n-no..." taehyung whimpered, his eyes wide as he slowly but carefully puts jisoo's head on the floor, crawling his way to the doll's ruined figure.

"l-lisa?" he uttered, his hands rumbling through the glass, ignoring the pain from the sharp pieces of porcelain as he looks for lisa's face.

"n-no don't leave me!" he cries, his hands were already bleeding, alerting his mom who is carrying jisoo, putting her in taehyung's bed before she quickly made her way to his son's broken state.

"taehyung, stop! your hands are bleeding-"

but taehyung shook his head, "no! mom call uncle joon, please! tell him to fix lisa, please mom, please!" he sobbed as he gripped the hem of his mom's shirt.

taehyung was desperate, very desperate.

"fix lisa! fix my lisa please, mom!" taehyung was in a crying mess now.

they were just laughing earlier, giggling at each other's cuteness.

and now, all he can imagine is his doll, his lisa, is now shattered into pieces, gone.

"i can't lose her..." he whispered, lowering his head as tears continued to stream down his cheeks.

"l-lisa... i can't lose her too..."
