Destined Love | Min Yoongi

Chapter 6

❀

I woke up suddenly, with a really annoying headache. I held onto my head, as I quickly sat up in bed. I'm sure it has only been an hour or so, since I returned home from the BigHit dorms.

I turned on my bedside lamp, then searched for my phone. Not seeing it on the locker at my left, where it usually is, I sighed loudly getting out of bed. I must have left it in the kitchen.

I tiptoed towards the kitchen, quite quickly as I was barefoot on the cold floor. I found my phone rather easily, once I turned on the light. I pressed the home button on my phone, seeing the lock screen appear with the time and date.

I sighed again as I saw the time. I knew it. It was about 12.08, meaning I barely slept two hours. But since its still early, I do have time left to sleep. That is, if my headache decides to give me a break.

I walked towards the sink, turning on the cold water, as I walked to the press beside it. I took out a glass and walked back to the sink, waiting a few seconds for the water to become colder, before filling up my glass.

Taking my glass with me, I walked towards the other side of the kitchen, opening another press where I kept my medicine. I placed my glass on the counter, then took down a small plastic box from the shelf. I placed the box down beside my glass, as I looked for some paracetamol.

Thankfully, there was still some left. I opened the packet, taking two and put them sitting beside my glass of water. I took the box putting it back up on the shelf, closing the press afterwards. I walked back to get my phone, making sure I didn't forget it, again.

I then took the tablets and the glass of water with me, as I walked back into my room. I quickly placed both on my locker, and sat down on my bed. I instantly put the tablets in my mouth, and took a huge gulp of water with them. Then of course I took another few sips, because of the awful taste.

I then put my phone underneath my pillow, and lay down in my bed, covering myself with the blanket so I instantly became warm. I closed my eyes, hoping I would go back to sleep....

Unfortunately, I just wouldn't go to sleep. After I was sure it had been at least 20 or so minutes, I checked the time. It was now 12.32.....I was lying in bed awake, for almost half an hour. What is wrong with me? My body is so tired, and my mind doesn't seem to have any major thoughts roaming around, like what I said that one time in an argument three years ago, that would keep me awake. Yet, I still can't manage to fall asleep. 

I really don't understand what's up. I was sleeping fine the past week. I guess my body just decided to keep me awake, the day I have a late night at work, with an early rise the next day. The fact that this just so happened to be, honestly annoys me. 

And to top it off, I heard my phone notification go off, which obviously made me curious. There really is no hope in getting any sleep tonight. I took my phone, and unlocked it quickly when I saw I had a message. It was a message from Sejin. 

-

Sejin: I have just after put out a statement explaining the situation, requesting exactly what you suggested.

Sejin: I just have one question. Namjoon seems rather restless, and still feels nauseous. Is this all still the soulmate bonding?

Me: Yes, unfortunately so. However, the moment he and his soulmate meet, he should instantly feel better.

Me: Please do keep me updated on the situation, so I can do anything and everything I'm able to, in order to help out.

Sejin: I will. Thank you again, we all really appreciate the help.

-

I smiled at my phone as I read the text. Sejin seems so kind, sincere and thankful. I wish all of the people I helped would be like him. Some don't even think twice about thanking me, yet Sejin here, thanked me multiple times. No wonder BTS is so down to earth, respectful and kind-hearted, they have great guidance.

Poor Namjoon. He is constantly under so much pressure, and this soulmate bonding is just adding to it. And now, he has the symptoms reoccurring. What was it.....sleeplessness and nausea, migraines too I would think. Kind of what I'm experiencing now....

"Wait, that doesn't-"

I quickly got up from my bed, and walked towards my desk, where many books currently lay. I searched around for a particular one, and thankfully it was there, rather than at work. I sat down at the desk, opening the book to the section I was looking to read.

"Symptoms and fate, the similarities of the two." I read the chapter title aloud, before quickly skimming through the chapter. And soon enough, I found what I was hoping wouldn't be there. There were many detailed paragraphs explaining how fate, your numbers, and symptoms of finding your soulmate are connected.

"In the event of suddenly having any, or all of these symptoms, your body, or rather soul, is preparing you for your bonding." I read aloud once again, hoping it was just my imagination putting words onto these pages. But unfortunately, it wasn't.

I spent years, or rather my whole life, avoiding bonding with my soulmate. While others saw it as a wonderful moment in life to be joyous about, all I could picture was a cage, with no locks, just bars keeping me in. Soulmate bonding may seem like a miracle for some, but it was something I dearly dreaded.

I hated the idea of having my freedom striped from me, and being bound to one person for all eternity. While many feared the dark, the unknown, death even. The fear most prominent in my eyes, was being imprisoned, confined, bound to fate.

And now, my greatest fear could just about become reality.

A/N So I was away, for quite a while. But I'm back now~!!

I was reading back over the chapter, as you do, and noticed that some people may interpret it a bit differently than I imagined. I hope you didn't think that Namjoon and Ae-Young had bonded, because that's not at all what I wanted. I hope there wasn't much, or any confusion on that.

Anyway, I hope you all are doing well. Have a lovely day/night~!! 💜💜💜
