“Tae! Wait! Please, stop!” Jimin shouted trying to catch up with his friend.
“Leave me alone Jimin. I need space to think” Taehyung said and went to their dorm room.
Jimin sighed, he knew Taehyung needs space. But he needs to be there in case the other might do something stupid which he know he won’t.
He decided to go back and confront Jungkook and maybe buy ice cream for his friend.
When he got to the cafeteria Jungkook immidiately sat up.
“How is he?” He asked concern lace in his voice.
“Can I talk to you?” Jimin asked instead.
“Alone” he said and looked at Ji eun who was to stand and follow Jungkook.
“What? Is it that private that I can’t go with him?” She asked irritated.
“No, but you would make the atmosphere sour with your presence” Jimin retorted and proceeded unto the school garden.
The 5 men on the table was shock to hear Jimin say words to a person he just met.
“What the hell was that?” Jimin asked hands on his waist as he looked up to the taller guy.
Jungkook furrowed his brows, “What was what?” He asked
“I thought you and Tae have something going on. But then you show up with someone else.” He said
Jungkook sighed and rubbed his face with his palm. Jimin can now see how tired his face is.
“I-I don’t know too. I do like him, but I also don’t know if I still have feelings for Ji eun. She was my first love and I know she broke it but I- I can’t explain it. That’s why I’m going to sort things out.” He said
“By what? Telling Taehyung that your feelings for him was just temporary that you only need someone who will patch that hole someone made for you? Because I swear even if you’re the son of the richest people here in Korea, I’m still going to punch you if you’re going to hurt my best friend” Jimin said through gritted teeth and left
Jungkook sighed, he knew he messed things up and he wants to fix it. He sighed again and entered the cafeteria.
His friends looked at him dissaprovingly while Ji eun smiled sweetly at him. He doesn’t know what to do anymore.
“How about a game tonight Kook?” Namjoon asked as the bell rang. The rest stood up and waited for him to answer.
He knew it was their way of telling that they want to talk to him.
He smiled, “Sure what time?” He asked.
“After school at our place” Namjoon said and smiled.
“Okay” he said
The others also bid goodbye. He looked back at Ji eun and saw her scowling.
“Do you have to go?” She whined
“Yes, and as far as I know you’re only here because your parents asked me to babysit you. So stop clinging to me” he said annoyed.
“But you were smiling and laughing to everything I said” she said and pouted.
“Because the others might think otherwise. They already hate you and if they knew the reason you’re here they’ll hate you more. Be thankful for that” he spat
Ji eun smiled sweetly at him and snaked her arm to his.
“I know you still care about me. That’s why you’re doing all these, for me” she said sweetly
“No, I’m doing this for your parents. If you want, sure let’s show my friends how I will truly treat you” he said and detached himself from her.
Ji eun widened her eyes, “No please, they already hate me. I’ll behave I promise” she said
Jungkook looked at her and left since they have different classes. A class he has with Taehyung. He hopes that he will see the other and apologize. He wants to explain badly to him. That it’s all just an act.
_________________________________________
After spending a week at Taehyung’s hometown Jungkook was on his way to his parents house. He promised them that he will spend the rest of the week with them.
He smiled widely as he opened the huge door. He shouted for his mom which was answered saying they are in the living room.
He went there with a smile on his face but it immidiately dissappeared when he saw the face he doesn’t want to see anymore.
There sat Ji eun with her parents, the girl smiling her signature smile.
“Jungkook son, come and join us.” His father called. He hesitatedly went and sat with them.
“I know you guys are not in term since some things happened between the two of you but please can you look out for her for awhile?” Ji euns father said.
Jungkook looked at him questioningly, “She’s big enough to take care of herself” he said
“Son, let them explain okay?” His mother said as he took his hands with hers and squeezed.
“If it’s okay I would like to speak to you alone” Ji eun’s father said.
He just nodded and followed him outside.
“I told Ji eun that she’ll be in your care because we’ll be traveling around all countries for our business. I know she’s old enough to take care of herself but I want you to look out for her. I didn’t want to tell her the reason because she might lose herself. She’s our only child and even if she hurt you please look after her.” He said, a sad look on his eyes.
Jungkook still doesn’t know where he’s going so he looked at him questioningly, telling him to continue.
“The truth is that, I’m sick and I’m going to have my treatment in the state. I don’t know if I’ll make it or not but I want you to look out for her, for us please. Your family are the only people who supported us since then, so please” the man continued pleading.
Jungkook sighed and can’t help but say okay to the request. He feels sympathetic to the family knowing they are going through everything
