10
I sat on the edge on top of the hill watching the sunrise, it was high that I could see the whole city and feel like the whole world is under my feet.
In that early I can barely see a car, in the long bridge, passing by every 10mins or even more.
Calm places always make me overthink everything and question every decision I have taken but that wasn't the case that day, as if my brain stopped working and I sunk quietly into oblivion.
I don't know how long I stayed there but when my stomach growled I noticed that the sun was almost over my head and the city is vivid the streets crowded with the cars of people who traded their lives with jobs seeking for money. And there I was watching them my biggest goal is to not get caught and sent again to the dark cell. That place felt safe and out of reach but I had to respond to the calls of my stomach and honestly I would take the risk for foods.
My destination was a small restaurant in an almost deserted quarter owned by my cousin. Regardless the hartered she has for me I thought going there is the best idea since she barely gets customers and she wouldn't call the police, or at least that's what I thought. I didn't know when the police will get the full evidence and come to arrest me.
I hid half of my face with the hood of jungkook's oversized hoodie which I stole from his closet before leaving his house, that made my cousin take a back when I walked inside. I removed the hood to assure her that I'm not a robber or assassin who's targeting her but seeing my face made her more frightned.
" what are you doing here ? " she stammered, " are you here to take revenge? " she gulped
I didn't know that the news circulated that fast
" I'm here for food the fast you make it and less you talk will be a point to your advantage " I whispered with dark eyes and she immediately ran to the kitchen as a scary cat like if she's not the same person who bullied me for years.
Living as a famous killer has advantages indeed, I got foods placed on my table in less than 2minutes so that absolutely was my favorite out of them.
I munched the burgers like a predator and the whole time I felt a pair of eyes on me, but I can't careless I filled my stomach and that's what mattered the most at that moment.
I ate 2 burgers and wrapped the other two saving them for later, and yes she gave me four burgers she was generous once in her life.
" thanks for the treat soobin " I said while stepping outside without giving her a single glance.
" but- " she was trying to say something but I didn't give her a chance, she had to taste from her poison and that was the right time.
Behind the door, was standing a guy in his 10s with worn clothes. He approached me quickly with a begging wattered eyes " please buy me food I'm starving "
I rolled my eyes as I raised my hand toward his forehead and pushed him away from my way and resumed.
I walked down the streets without a specific destination just letting my feet leading me wherever they please
That one shop caught my attention, I stoop up in front of it my eyes fixed on one of the smartphones in the showcase. I smirked at the thought of that one person I wanted to call for a long time, in seconds I was standing outside the shop but this time with the phone in my hand regardless my low budget, I knew that call will solve half of my problems.
I log in my kakaotalk account to get the numbers back the first user popped out was no one other than jimin, my last conversation was with him and I never thought it will be the last.
Stupidely I clicked the call botton and waited as if he will pick up the phone and say " hey princess "
for the 7 years I knew him he has never taken that long to respond to me
~
" it's me y/n " I said as soon as I heard the beep indicating that the call was accepted
" I knew you will call me " said the voice from the other line with a small chuckle " I know what happened yesterday they were looking for you, you know that I'm always with you. I have a place for you to stay in for the time being till the end of this mess "
" why are you doing this ? You are involving yourself in this shit for what? "
" for you, I'll hung up and send you the location don't ignore my offer "
I sighed and did as told. The location led me to a cabin in the wood in the middle of a forest away from humans. I found the keys under the entry's carpet as written on the text. I walked to a dusty dungy living room, the house needed days of cleaning to become livable.
By the night it was much better, I fell on the couch after draining all my energy in cleaning it.
I closed my eyes and relaxed- breathing in and out. My breath was the only thing you can hear in that outlying cabin.
I drifted off to sleep while trying to catch any voice in the surrounding.
I woke up in the early morning, I'm not a morning person but I forgot to eat dinner the previous night that caused my stomach growl making a terrible embarassing sound
I opened my bag reaching for the burgers I saved yesterday but the smell was so disgusting, I threw them in the trash can while grumbling for no one to hear.
It was time for buying groceries but the 1 hour walk to the city wasn't encouraging.
I dragged my legs while humming a song to entertain myself in the long walk.
I felt more safe in that empty large forest. I threw the hoodie over my head once I started seeing the buildings, and didn't think about removing it even after noticing the weird stares from people in the supermarket. I filled the cart with necessary and unnecessary products and almost the whole shelf of the candies. The feeling of being watched was bothering me more than the stares of the people I passed by, because they weren't like the others those couple of eyes were carefully watching me and following me everywhere, I believed my intuition eventhough I turned around and couldn't see anything suspecious.
I continued shopping but my focus was on my surrounding getting mentally ready for any sudden attack.
When I took one more step to turn to the next aisle, a long figure popped out of nowhere making me jump slightly from the sudden presence of the not expected boy.
"Jungkook " I breathed out and closed my eyes for seconds to calm myself after the heart attack I almost had because of him " how did you find me? "
He shifted his gaze from me to the cart I was pulling and then to me again
" you stole my whole salary but I'm sure it's not enough to buy all these things "
" I borrowed " I corrected him, " I might not pay it back in the future but for now use this word "
He chuckled and stopped when he saw me staring for so long at his lips
Not that I was lost in his beautiful smile or daydreaming about kissing him, the things I would have done if I didn't have something more important to focus on at that moment like the feeling of being watched closely. Apparently jungkook was not the only one watching me from afar and that's when I saw out of the corner of my eyes someone peeking from the second aisle on the left holding a gun.
