03- Puzzle pieces
Once again in such a familiar situation she was sitting.
Sitting by the window resting her face on the top of her crossed arms over the window sill, Angel sat there gazing forth at the setting sun that seemed to kiss the waters of the sea beyond and hiss as it cooled down the burning fiery surface yet the orange and pinkish hues sparkled the beach and seemed like one from a fairytale.
The air held a faint smell of sea water, cool breeze and a hint of coconut cookies that Jimin must have freshly retrieved from the oven.
Was it always like this?
Have I always been like this?
Or did I have a past too?
Why can’t I remember anything, if that’s so?
Is Jungkook Oppa really my brother? Why don’t I have the same sir name then?
The very first memory Angel had was waking up to seeing cozy surroundings her as the morning sun shone brightly through the crème curtains.
She remembers how weak and fragile she felt as she held clutched her chest feeling her heart beat reach her ears while her dried throat just added to the restlessness cruising through her existence.
That day she was as quite as the silence itself. She felt so weird with these faces around her and these surroundings, no matter how hard she tried she never got to remember anything. With the meds she began to feel more oblivious to her past, that according to Jungkook was her healing though she did find something off feeling how Jungkook would avoid eye contact with her.
Are they really my family?
If yes, then why can’t I remember anything, why can’t I feel any familiarity with them, why can’t I recognize them.
What if they are lying to me?
What if they are not my family?
What if they are keeping me away from the truth?
No, Angel why would they-….
Angel!
Angel?
Why does this even feel so strange.
How come I not recognize my name even.
Was a fall from the third floor that damaging? But, why did I fall? Our house is just two floors then how-….
Did we perhaps lived somewhere else before-
“What’s with all the brain work hm?” Chirped a mellow yet raspy voice next to Angel making her jolt lightly and turn towards the source to find a smiling Jimin who stroked the girl’s hairs gently before leaning in and pressing a gentle kiss to her head.
“Nothing” Angel smiled to the sweet affection getting up and following after the brown haired guy who dragged her by her hand gently towards kitchen.
“Mhm, if that’s the case why don’t you give me some company hm?” Jimin spoke as he led the girl to sit on a chair on the dinner table and sat on his continuing to work on the cupcakes decorating them with piping bags filled with multi colored toppings.
“Where is Jihyun? I didn’t see him or Oppa from the morning.”
“Oh them….”
Angel noticed a sudden fall in his tone, but continued to stare at the boy waiting for a response.
“Well they went for some grocery shopping…”
Jimin smiled avoiding eye contact with the girl and continued to decorate the small cakes.
Angel furrowed her brows hearing the guy clearly lie as she remembered Jungkook bringing loads of groceries just two days back. this only brought her to be more curious about where did her brother and his son go and its nearly evening and they ain’t home yet.
“Jimin?” Angel leaned forth staring at the boy’s face who looked up and nodded as a response.
“I can see you are lying and I don’t like liars.”
A sudden drop in his facial expressions along with his complexion fading was what Angel observed. He seemed scared. Did she perhaps say something wrong? But, she doesn’t seem to find anything wrong with her words.
“I-I, Why would I lie Angel?” Jimin had placed everything down as he stared at the girl forth with cautious eyes.
“Angel, did you take your meds from the morning?” he seemed observant and vigilant that only made the girl doubt him more.
“I did, why would you ask?”
“Nothing, sweetheart I just want to make sure you are fine.” Instantly he gave off a smile but now Angel could see how fake it was. He was disturbed from inside. There was thick silence that followed after until she couldn’t keep herself from questioning yet again. Asking Jungkook made her hesitant since he would respond with anger or sternness but Jimin was too soft-hearted towards her and that what led her to try and carve out some information from the brown-haired guy.
“Jimin?”
“Yes?”
“I fell from a third floor and hit my head right?”
Jimin just nodded continuing with his work not making eye contact yet again that only brought the girl to doubt this story of her fall more.
“Did we perhaps live somewhere else before?”
And his hands stopped once again yet he didn’t look up neither speak a word let alone question the girl about why she would think like that.
“… I’m asking that because we have only two floors in our house and Oppa said I fell from third floor, then it must be that we lived somewhere-….”
“You know that so much thinking is not good for you. You are still healing.” Jimin instantly got up grabbing the tray and placing the cupcakes over the rack while he now started cleaning the table.
“I’m not thinking, I’m just asking if-…”
“Listen Honey…” Jimin gently grabbed the girl by her shoulders as he approached her.
“Me, Jungkook and Jihyun are your family, your only family okay, we have always lived here and you have always seen this house only-…”
“Then why don’t I remember any of it Jimin, Even my name looks so strange to me, I want to know If I have a past-….”
“WHEN I TOLD YOU, YOU WILL NEVER TALK ABOUT THESE THINGS, DID I NOT MAKE MYSELF CLEAR ENOUGH ANGEL?” Boomed the heavy voice with a growl that jolted both Angel and Jimin in their places. She turned around to see no one except Jeon Jungkook her brother and he looked…. Pissed off.
“Oppa-….”
“How many times have I told you to not question such things-…”
“Jungkook, be gentle-…”
“She doesn’t understand it the gentle way.”
Jungkook snapped his gaze towards Angel who had her hands clutched to her chest, though she never seemed scared or even a bit fearful of her brother’s wrath and that was something that bothered Jungkook more and more, she is still not losing her true colors.
“I have a whole right to question about my past, I want to know who I am? It feels so weird, I feel so out of place, I don’t even know if you all are my real family or not”
The said made the two guys furrow their brows as she looked at the girl spoke ranting.
“I want to know If I had more people in life-…”
Jungkook instantly stomped forth making the girl gulp her words back as she stood still staring forth with big eyes.
“Jungkook-…” Jimin tried to keep the pissed off guy back but Jungkook pushed his hands off of his existence and came up straight to the girl face to face.
“So, you want to say that I’m not your brother?”
“N-no, I didn’t meant-…” a gasp left her mouth as Jungkook grabbed her from both shoulders and yanked her close peering deep in her eyes.
“You see this face, it’s the face of your brother, I am your brother, one and only. You have no one else in this world but us three, this house is your house it has always been and always will be, it will be better for you the sooner you accept it.” There was no tenderness in his tone and the way he spoke each word it made Angel fear her doubts to be true, Unknowingly two tears slipped down her cheeks breaking from the brim of her eyes making Jimin to tug Jungkook back yet he never moved an inch back even.
“You will never question anything regarding to your previous life, you understand me?”
“Yes” she almost whimpered though his eyes never went soft.
“The next time you ask something like this, remember one thing you won’t like it what I do next, heard me?”
“Y-yes.”
And just like that Jungkook pulled her in his strong embrace hugging the girl against his stiff muscled body as he kissed the top of her head oblivious to what was going through the mind of this girl.
