17: Curiosity Kills The Cat (1/2)
I'm bored...
Like hell.
Everything feels like an epiphany.
It feels like I have something that I can never have. But... I have it. I have him. I just need to tell him about it.
"Maybe I should just explore a bit." Raising up abruptly from the bed, I decided to look around for some time.
{}
Strolling through the big rooms, I was amazed at the furniture and luxury. His house was like a perfect home, neither too small, nor too big. But, it contained a fragment of sadness and eeriness. The silence...
It made it desperate for some happiness and laughs. I wonder where his parents are? Are they dead? Because he's living for so long. They must've passed away. Does that mean he's living all by himself for all this time?
While walking, I came across a wall covered with a white bedsheet. A golden frame slightly peeked out through its corner, confirming the idea that there was some kind of picture behind the white cloth...
"What's... this?" I hesitated. Shall I remove it? Nothing would happen even if I do so. But the last time I was curious, I got involved in an almost murder... All alone in a deadly street.
"No one's gonna see it, right?" I gulped awkwardly, my eyes glimpsing back and forth at the room's corners, looking out for any kind of hidden or small cameras.
Fortunately, there were none. Once something came in my luck.
"Phew, here it goes!" I exclaimed, with a beating heart, finally removing the dusty cloth from the mystery.
"Woah-" My throat got stuck in the middle.
The big picture was kind of rusted from some parts... It was a big frame with a picture of Taehyung smiling. He was smiling beside someone. Jisoo...?
What the fuck?
"Why is she in that picture?" I muttered, narrowing my eyes at the unexpected sight.
Does Jisoo know him? The first time she saw him... She didn't have any special reaction. Neither did Taehyung seem to know her. Then why does he have a picture of her in his room? Is there something that I don't know?
The way his large hands were relaxing over her shoulder with a proud smile really wasn't something common. I mean, they didn't look friendly whatsoever. They looked more than that...
But, wasn't he my boyfriend in the past?
What is going on...
"Fuck this shit I'm out."
"Yeah, exactly, you should be."
My shoulders flinched like shit before I turned around, witnessing someone I never wanted to come there... At that moment mostly.
"T-Taehyung..." I gulped, lowering my eyes with an unexplainable voice. What was I supposed to say?
"What are you doing roaming around my house? Looking and touching my personal things?"
Ouch.
My heart felt a pang when I looked into his strange gaze. Did he ever love me? If yes, then what is this behavior?
"I-I was just bored," I replied, slowly.
"That doesn't give you the right to go through my stuff, does it?" He cut my words, sharply.
Inhaling and exhaling were the only things I could do. There was a thick silence and I absolutely hated such an awkward ambiance. I miss the time when we once went out and stargazed at the sky. That day was the only day I ever felt comfortable and delighted with him.
"If so, then just like that, you don't get the right to behave so rudely with me all the time." I sighed, retorting back when his eyebrows raised at my phrase.
"Rudely?" He scoffed. "Someone goes through my privacy and if I stop them, I'm rude?"
Wow... Now he's playing with me?
"Don't try that mind play with me, Mr," I smirked with a furious gaze. I've had it with him now...
"Just because I discover that you're that ruthless monster killing people every night doesn't mean that you'll behave rudely with me." I finally let it out.
He simply tilted his head, observing me. Looks like he was waiting for such a reply...
"I didn't do anything that could hurt or harm you, right? I didn't even inform the police even when I'm a detective's daughter. How ironic. Is that how you pay me back?" I backfired. My mind wasn't working. The confusion, the mess... And now, that picture. It all brewed some kind of anger that stirred like a volcano in me.
"Shall I kiss you to pay you back, sweetheart?"
Chills broke down into my spine hearing the all-so-familiar voice of his, again. So now, we're a hundred percent sure that it was and is him.
"There are many more ways to pay back other than those cheap perverted thoughts in your mind, Kim Taehyung." My gaze hardened as he started to advance toward me.
Wasn't he supposed to go? Why did he come back home? Ugh, this is awkward.
"But you liked it in the alley where I grasped you. Didn't you?" He was now standing in front of me. His hands were on either side of me, caging me into his arms.
"S-Stop this," I grunted, blinking again and again. I was already too flustered and his dirty talk wasn't helping at all. Was I considered to get shy or kick him in the balls and run away?
"You wanted me to do more than that, didn't you? I know you wanted it. Just spit it out, Miso." He uttered with his raspy voice as his breath started to get heavier.
What's... What's happening?
"Why is Jisoo in that picture?" I inquired before he could do anything further than that. A deep chuckle escaped his lips that suddenly caused butterflies to erupt in my stomach as I whimpered quietly, not to become weak.
"Why do you care? All you want is to kiss me, right? Just do it, c'mon!"
What?
"Get a kiss and go tell the whole school how you kissed the popular cold guy, 'The Kim Taehyung'. Isn't that what a girl like you wants? Fame, power, and popularity, right?"
I pushed him so strongly that he fell down with an angry growl.
"Never think of me so low, Taehyung. If I do something, then there's always a meaning behind it. I don't do things I don't mean." Hissing at him in bitterness, I turned around to walk away, not caring about the picture anymore but his words stopped me midway.
"So do you love me? Is that why you're so eager to stay close to me all the time?" He laughed out as if mocking my feelings. As if making a joke on my emotions. As if... As if I was a piece of trash that wasn't allowed to commit to something which it committed. And now, everyone would make fun of it...
Balling my fists, I closed my eyes, absorbing all those tears that were about to escape.
No Miso. You are not so weak. You can do it.
Rotating around I spoke,
"I indeed grew fond of you, but before any kind of feeling or affection could bloom, you already crushed it, with the steps of your bitterness and low thinking. Thank you very much for saving me from heartbreak. I'm really grateful for it. I owe you! Once again, thank you for proving that you're nothing but a piece of junk, Taehyung." I spit the poison before finally walking back into the bedroom.
I'm not going to linger here anymore. Not at all after this.
I will leave and stay with my brothers now. I don't care what they ask or think of me once they see me after almost a day. All that matters is, that I'm going back home.
Home. Where I belong. Where someone at least knows my worth and misses me.
I don't want to stay with this shithead anymore.
