BARE SOULS

Just bear with me

*The performance goes on well, Jungkook never wants to disappoint armys so he trued his best to make it look normal. All that while he just wondered where Yn is, or if she's okay or not? Mi-Young is with Aria at the dorm to make it easier to handle. Yn didn't contact anybody from the morning. But just to be sure the D2 started tracing her out. That's when he found something surprising and so he waited till he could contact Jungkook. It's late in the evening when Jungkook and Dara, met the detective in a cafe.*
D2: *taking out a few photos* So I checked the cameras and found out that she took a cab till the highway entrance and then someone picked her up. I looked into the number plate and Jungkookssi, it was your mother.
Jk: *shocked* What? So you're saying Yn is with my mom?
D: But why? And if she's going to go to your mom, why didn't she say so to us.
Jk: I'll call omma.
*calls her*
O: Auh Jungkookah! Are you okay?
Jk: Ah ye! Omma is Yn with you?
O: *silent*
Jk: Omma, tell me.
O: A-ah yes! But don't come now.
Jk: Don't tell her. I'm coming *cuts the call and gets up to leave*
D: Should I come too?
Jk: No, it's fine.
D: But it's a two hour drive from here and it's already late.
Jk: I'm going Dara. *leaves*
*In the car driving. Calls Yn*
Jk: Switched off again. *groans* I swear I'm going to break that phone into pieces.
*He reaches his home after a long drive and gets in to the living room. It was all silent. He looked around and found a familiar back facing him in the kitchen, struggling with pouring some water in the pot, supposedly for some tea.*
Jk: Y-Ynnn.... *in his calm deep voice*
Yn: *shook and turns around* *wide eyes but slowly turns into expressionless and turns her back to him again, continuing to do what she was doing earlier*
*The main door opens*
JkM: YNYAH! I CUT THE LEMON GRASS FROM THE TERRACE! THE TEA's GOING TO TASTE SO GOOD. *looks up after leaving her slippers and stops looking at the familiar person in front of her*
Yn: *walks to her and takes the bag from her hand* Thanks Mrs. Jeon. *doesn't even look at Jk and walks past him to the kitchen again*
JkM: *observes that and sighs and looks at Jk* *feels bad looking at her son that's hurting* When did you come? *mumbles*
Jk: A few moments ago.
JkM: I told you not to. She'll need some time.
Jk: Why didn't you tell me that she's here? You have no idea how scared I was.
JkM: Well you just came to her immediately and that's the reason why I didn't tell you. *sighs* I'll explain it to you later.
Yn: Mrs. Jeon here's your tea. *brings it to the counter and places it*
JkM: Kumavoyo! *takes and leaves to her room, giving them some space*
Yn: *places a mug on the counter and turns back* That's for you. *starts drinking hers, turning towards the stove*
Jk: *walks to the counter and sits on the chair looking at her back and observing each and every movement of hers, hesitantly drinks the tea*
Yn: *finishes drinking hers and walks past him again making him look down out of disappointment, but he felt her touch over his shoulders* Your coat is damp from the snow. *slides her fingers around the collar from the back indicating that she's taking it off*
Jk: *lets his arms loose as she took it off, but she walks away with the coat again without saying a word* *looks back and sees her leaving into his room with the coat over her one hand* *sighs and puts the cup back into the sink and walks into his room as well*
Yn: *hangs his coat to dry and turns around to find Jungkook standing in front of her* Did you eat? *looks away*
Jk: *nods*
*Yn walks past him, but this time he just stops her holding her wrist and hugs her tight with one arm around her shoulder and one around her waist, burying his face onto her shoulder, locking her in his embrace, not giving her a chance to move. He tries to control his tears, which lead him to clutch his hands tightly, digging his fingers onto her clothing and tightening the grip around her. Yn stays still, emotionless adding to his sadness, while she felt his hot tear on her shoulder. He pulls back from the hug and places a hand on her cheek caressing it looking at her serious and cold face with his redden features and leans in tilting his head and places his lips over her. And as expected she didn't to respond to that as well, she just turns her head to the side, so that his lips are now near her earlobe, while he stayed still taking in the rejection after she broke this kiss. He weakly goes back to hugging her while she just stayed stiff*
Jk: *mumbles onto her shoulder with hoarse voice* Why won't you hug me back?
Yn: *sighs* Jung-
Jk: You hugged him back. Am I not even worth a hug? Do you hate me that much now? *sobs*
Yn's POV: As much as I'm angry I know that I'm the only person that can comfort him.
Yn: *places her hand on the back of his head, running fingers through his hair* *she knows the tiniest gestures that can calm Jungkook down* I-I don't hate you Jungkook. Why weren't you there when I got out? After waiting the whole night, you had to disappear right when I needed you?
Jk: *looks at her and talks in panic* N-no Yn! *talks in pout* I-I just went to Dara to check on the process and came back to you as soon as possible. *sniffs* H-how did you know? That. Was there?
Yn: *walks to the bed while talking* You put half and half in my takeaway.
*Jungkook mentality facepalmed himself. He did that out of habit*
Jk: *walks to her and takes her hands into his* Y-yn, let's go back home. P-please!
Yn: *nods a yes and takes her hands away from him with her still cold expression* *walks to the bed and gets under covers and lays on her side facing her back to his side and checks her mobile.*
*He just watches everything she does feeling broken. Makes his way to the bed and also settles down beside her but facing her back and looking at her mobile screen*
Jk: You're not going to tell me?
Yn: *cold* I would have if you asked this question a day ago.
Jk: *sighs* Yn-
Yn: Later Jungkook. *cuts him off* *puts her phone aside and pulls her cover up, switches the bed lamp off ready to go to sleep*
Jk: *looks at the celing for a long time, moves closer and hugs her back, while she jerks a little* Please Yn! I can't sleep.
Yn: *just stays still and stiff in his embrace, turns her head back on hearing his snores after a while*
Yn's POV: What should I do with this guy? *sighs* He looks so tired. *eases a bit in his embrace making herself comfortable and looks to the front again*
*The next morning they leave to Yn's place. Yn is still calm and cold. She doesn't initiate a conversation or talk much when he initiates it making it harder for him. He didn't actually initiate much after understanding that how important it is to give her space. They reach the dorm to pick Aria up. Jungkook opens the door for Yn and she walks in catching the eye of Mi-Young.*
M: Oh my god Yn! *walks to her briskly and pulls her into a tight hug*
*Hearing Mi-Young's shriek BTS rush down knowing that Yn's here. But none of them didn't know what to say. Aria runs to Yn*
A: MOMMMMYYYYUYY!
Yn: *immediately picks her up and hugs her*
A: I missed you. *holds onto her neck*
Yn: *smiles* I missed you too B. *pecks her cheek*
A: Is it hurting? *places her small chubby hand over Yn's palm*
Yn: *smiles* Not much sweety. Did you trouble MiMi with anything.
A: Nooo.
M: *chuckles* Come here. Let me hold you. Mommy's got a booboo right?
A: Put me down then. *stands down and holds Yn's leg*
Yn: Where are her things?
M: I'll get them. I put them in Oppa's room.
Jin: Y-you're leaving? *looks at Yn and then at Jungkook*
Yn: What will I do here? *cold*
Suga: Yn, I know-
Yn: Later Oppa! I don't intend to be mean. Especially towards you. I just don't have the energy or the interest to talk about anything right now.
Suga: *nods* Aarasso.
Yn: But thank you.
Suga: *confused* Why?
Yn: Atleast you were considerate that day. I never waited for somebody to do something for me. But that day I waited for SOMEBODY *looks at Jungkook* to tell that officer to not do it and just ended up hurting myself. *lifts her hand up* Not this. Not even physically. So I'm thankful even if it's the least, YOU did it. *tears start forming in her eyes again*
M: Ynyah, calm down. *strokes her back* we should leave. Khaja!
Jk: I-I'll drive her home Mi.
M: *turns back and nods* Not the right thing to do right now Jungkook. *calm* You guys have a shoot anyway. *leaves*
Jimin: I don't blame her hyung. We really did hurt her a lot.
RM: Let's apologise properly next time.
V: *hugs Jungkook from the side* Yaah, uljimaa. What happened happened. Just give her sometime.
Jk: I just want her to take her anger out on me. She's not expressing it and that's making it harder. You know this is the first time after the incident she took out her frustration about me not acting up against that officer? I want that hyung. I want her to vent out.
Jin: You know her better than us that her reactions and ways are a bit different, but one thing I'm sure is that if she doesn't intend to stay with you then she should have broke it right then.
RM: I don't think so. She might be just giving a benefit of thought. I'm sorry Jungkook ah but *sighs*
Jk: That's what omma says too.
V: Omma? You went home?
Jk: Yeah to pick Yn.
Suga: Yn was at your place?
Jk: *nods* My mom asked her to come. Even though there is this language barrier between them she always thought about Yn's past and how she endured the pain. I heard her say this to Yn today morning. That it was hard for her to marry a guy younger to her and face everybody and even though it's not the same somehow she can relate to what Yn felt in the past. She thought that Yn might feel like escaping from all this so rather than going to any other place she called her home. As Yn's also away from her parents and have a little space.
Jk: And Yn agreed to it immediately and left not telling any of us.
Jimin: See? Even omma wants this to work. So don't worry much. Okay?
Jk: *nods*
* Usually they communicate a fair amount through texts and as Jungkook is going to be busy most of the time, it's Yn that texts him. It's obvious that it's not going to be that way now, because even though it got late she didn't even ask him if he's coming back home or going back to the dorm. After their busy schedule Jungkook goes to Yn's late at night. He opens the door and finds Yn sitting on the kitchen counter doing something on her laptop, with a dim light. She looks up at him and then back on the laptop screen*
POV: Finally, he's here. I thought he'll go back to the dorm today.
Jk: *approaches her* What are you doing?
Yn: Work.
Jk: What work?
Yn: You don't know about it.
Jk: *sighs* D-did you eat?
Yn: Yes. *pauses* And you? *eyes fixed on the laptop screen*
Jk: Hmmmm. *scratching his nape* I-I'm going to take a shower.
Yn: Hmmm.
Jk: How long are you going to work?
Yn: Why?
Jk: To go to bed. I'm so tired. *trying to converse* the shoot was so hectic-
Yn: Then go ahead. Don't wait for me.
Jk: *hurt* O-okay.
*Usually, she listens to each and everything that he has to say, before going to bed. Most of the times Jungkook dozes away talking to Yn, while she brushes his hair running her fingers through it, holding him in her embrace. Jungkook never has a bad day because he is used to telling everything to her and somehow she comforts him no matter what the situation is and so he always ends his day with a good mood. It's just like when kids tell their parents all that happened in their school and then seek comfort from them and then feel relieved. He indeed had a harsh day today, with all the mistakes he made during the practice and the stressful shoot. Walking in defeat to their bedroom, he comes out after taking a shower and could hear Yn talking over the phone. It was on speaker and he could hear that it's Mi. It's normal for Yn to attend her calls on speaker she always does that at home. As he started setting the room, keeping his things away like a good boy, he pays attention to her conversation*
M: Is he home?
Yn: Hmmm.
M: Did you sort out?
Yn: *stays silent*
M: Yn? We have talked about this.
Yn: No. I didn't.
M: I understand you still need time.
Yn: I don't know Mi. I don't know if I still need time of if I really want this.
*Tears start brimming in Jungkook's eyes hearing what she just said. He just stood still behind the door*
M: Listen hun, it can feel that way. It's just been a day. So it's completely okay to feel that way, but don't take any hasty decisions. Alright?
Yn: Hmmm.
M: Yn, I was more than that you are with Jungkook. We all know how much he loves you. I know these people get stubborn and very protective and very very territorial when it comes to Bangtan, and that's what happened. I understand it went too far, but it's not completely false right? It was a mis-understanding.
Yn: Hmmm. I'm listening and I'm still thinking. I have nothing to say.
M: Alright then. I'll hang up now. Oppa's going to call anytime soon.
Yn: See you Mi!
M: Ya, love you hun! *cuts the call*
Yn: *sighs and closes her laptop*
*Jungkook could hear her footsteps fading away, and a door opening, indicating that she went out to the lawn. He slowly comes out of the bedroom and makes sure that he doesn't look like he heard it all and walks to the slightly open door. He immediately regretted his decision to follow her as he didn't like what he saw again. Mr. Black was standing at the edge of the stairs while Yn stood in front of him and they were talking. Although they were just talking, he couldn't take it, take the fact that a while ago she didn't want to talk to him but she is talking to HIM normally. For some reason he felt that they switched roles. He saw her nodding and giving a little smile indicating that their conversation is over and he went down the stairs. She turns to the door and looks at Jungkook glaring at her walking towards her. She collects her calm and walks towards the toys that Aria left under her tiny outdoor tent, picking them up and putting them in.*
Yn: I thought you were about to sleep? *bending down to the floor picking up the toys*
Jk: *looks at her full of rage* Why? Did I bother you guys with my presence?
Yn: *looks at him finally* *mad* Seriously? *gets up* *calms herself down* We were talking about the paperwork. He is finished with the process.
Jk: *calms down a little* *nods chewing onto his lips*
Yn: I-I asked him to join us for breakfast tomorrow. *squeezing onto the toy that's in her hand knowing that it's going to trigger him*
Jk: *mad and clenching his jaw* NOT. WHEN. I'm. HERE.
Yn: *sighs* Jungkook please. It's just for an hour and stop over reacting.
Jk: I'm over reacting? I'm the one over reacting? You don't even talk to me and you know how I feel about HIM and you still invited him? To eat with US? You can go ahead and have a happy breakfast with your little family reunion. *blurts out*
Yn: *furrowing her brows* Family reunion? He's nothing more than just a mere friend to me. And you know very well, that I didn't even consider him that. Jungkook he had to come all the way here to take me out of a mess, that YOU put me into, not to forget. And I just invited him for breakfast and that too in YOUR presence and not alone, I don't understand what part of it bothers you!
Jk: OH MY GOD YN! I'M SORRY OKAY? YOU WONT EVEN LET ME APOLOGISE AND KEEP ON REMINDING ME, I KNOW IT! I KNOW THAT I AM WRONG AND WHAT PART OF IT BOTHERS ME? THE FACT THAT HE's AROUND YOU, WHEN HE DOESNT EVEN DESERVE TO TALK WITH YOU AND THE FACT THAT I FEEL LIKE A STRANGER RIGHT NOW!!! THAT- THAT BOTHERS ME! *slams the door shut and goes inside leaving her out*
Yn: *freezes at his sudden yelling and anger* *sighs and continues what she was doing earlier, and goes into their room after a while and finds Jungkook sleeping already.* POV: He's not helping. Is he insecure now? But why? I mean he knows how much I stay away from that guy and why does he have to be so jealous about it?
Yn: *tries to sleep but feeling helpless she gets up and goes to watch over Aria, as she always felt soothing looking at her sleep peacefully and how tiny she is.* *smiles looking at her and caresses her soft chubby cheeks with her thumb making circles*
A: *moves a little and holds her hand with both of her hands and hugs it against her body making Yn die looking at her cuteness*
*After a few minutes Yn slowly takes her hand away and adjust Aria's RJ duvet over her and puts back chimmy in her arms. While doing this she could hear rapid footsteps approaching the room. She turns around confused and looks at the tall figure that just approached the door way. As he entered inside the room she could see his face clearly.*
