This internal fight concluded, not in a kiss he might've seen coming, but in an attack from a male adult (Raphael's father). This solidified the beliefs forced into his mind and returned home to find his parents and Evans, making his mind shut down fully for the first time (we see this happening again when Jungkook gets overwhelmed at Evanthe and Taehyung gives him an order, and he does it without thinking). He doesn't remember anything of what happened next; his parents' anger after being called by Raphael's father (they know nothing of the almost-kiss), and Evan's third assault. This one, however, wasn't how Evans intended. Jungkook was eighteen and, in his mind, a perfect age to kill him, but circumstances made it impossible, so Jungkook became "the one that got away" and, for a perfectionist, he was the off note in the recital of his crimes. If you noticed Jungkook barely thought of the two academic years between finishing school at eighteen and starting university at twenty-one, you would be correct; that was also done on purpose. This third attack, memory lagoon and losing Raphael's friendship made him push his feelings aside and just study; he only felt fully human when Emily and Leo visited during the summer. He was barely at home, only going back to sleep, do his morning routine, and leave again, and he began acting like Evans' name was nothing to him and just "his parents' friend". After gaining a reputation at school of being better off alone, no one tried to mess with him as often as he liked, so he would walk around, trying to find a way to relieve some stress with adrenaline and pain (the wrong way, of course; he should've told his friends).
