Chapter 11

After that day, it was as if Jungkook had closed himself off from his friends, he felt that all of that only made it more difficult for him to live his life. He's comfortable with what he has now, he's sick of the pain he always feels just to remember something he can't take well.

Jungkook was still lying on his bed, without clothes on his body, and Lisa also seemed to be still asleep in his arms. Every night, he only dreams of Jin's face and memories that he doesn't know whether they are true or not. He kissed her head with tears rolling down his cheeks. He had already decided to stick with what he believed in and end all the memories that came after this.

Day after day passed, and it didn't feel like Christmas was just around the corner, but that day Lisa had to go, she had promised to celebrate Christmas with her daughter in Australia, of course, Jungkook didn't know about that, she just said if she wanted to visit her parents and celebrate Christmas together. Jungkook couldn't go with her because of his busy schedule.

That day Jungkook didn't accompany Lisa to the airport, he had to go to the shooting location with Hoseok.

"Where's Lisa?" Hoseok said.

"She went to Australia to visit her parents and celebrate Christmas together," Jungkook said.

"So you celebrate Christmas alone?" Hoseok said.

"I don't need to celebrate, I just need to sleep," Jungkook said.

"Come over to Yoongi's house, your cousin is going back to Australia after celebrating Christmas together," Hoseok said.

"No thanks," Jungkook said and he went back to shooting, his speech and attitude very cold. There were many things Hoseok wanted to tell him but he was sure Jungkook wouldn't want to hear them.

***

Christmas Eve came, but Jungkook didn't come to Yoongi's place to hang out with his friends. Jimin didn't even say anything about returning to Australia. That day there was no work for Jungkook to do, all day he just did his favorite boxing. But he was too bored and decided to take a walk.

He didn't know where to go that night, but only the Han River came to mind and he headed there, on the coldest night in Seoul. When he got there, Jungkook just looked around, he also didn't know why he wanted to go there, not many people came there, they would prefer a romantic dinner or gathering at home with loved ones.

But as he walked along the riverbank, his steps stopped when he saw who was in front of him. Someone also seemed to stop and stare at Jungkook.

"Long time no see," Jin said and smiled.

"Why are you here? Aren't you in Australia?" he said.

"Tomorrow is Christmas, and I wanted to celebrate with the others, so I came home early and wanted to surprise them," Jin said.

"Okay, I'll go first," Jungkook walked past Jin, and Jin held Jungkook's hand making his steps stop again.

"Wait," Jin said.

"What?" Jungkook looked at him and so did Jin.

"I heard from Hoseok about your memory," Jin said.

"So?" he said.

"Jungkook, I--"

"If you think I will accept those memories, you are wrong, I think all those memories are just bullshit! I'm normal Jin, I can't possibly love someone like you! You're a man! And I don't remember anything about you!" Jungkook's words silenced Jin.

"I've decided to forget all my past and start a new life! I'm happy with what I have now and I'm going to marry Lisa. So don't expect anything from me now! because I've already chosen who will live forever with me, and it's not you," Jungkook said Jin trying to hold back his tears even though it was so heavy, took off the necklace that was on his neck.

"Do you remember this? This necklace was my birthday present from you, three years ago, before the accident happened. I'm not going to discuss anything that you don't want to know, it's okay if you want to forget everything Jungkook, if it's too painful to remember, then forget it, I'm glad you want to start your life anew. I'm glad that woman is Lisa, someone who loves you. And now, I'm giving back what's not mine, here, I can't keep it any longer, I'm sorry Jungkook, thank you for your time all this time you gave it to me, I...I love you Jeon Jungkook," Jin said, he gave the necklace to Jungkook and left without saying anything else, for him what Jungkook said was clear enough, Jungkook stopped loving him.

Jungkook didn't even look at Jin and continued on his way, he put his hand into his jacket pocket and tightly gripped the necklace that Jin gave him, it hurt so bad, why did it hurt like this?
