STRAWBERRIES & CIGARETTES [CHAPTER 24]

24|"Are you a pervert?"





Jungkook sighs, rolling to his side. The mattress was so soft and comfy just like his- but something was weird. He didn't feel the big teddy bear beside him. Jungkook's hand searched for the giant brown teddy bear that's always on his side when he sleeps but he couldn't find it.




He opens his eyes slowly only to meet with complete darkness.





Jungkook's heart dropped in the pit of his stomach. "When I became blind!?" He gulps, licking his dry lips but sighs in relief when faint light could be seen through the windows, covered with curtains.






But again, all his calmness faded away when he saw a figure sitting on the sofa in his someone's house. Jungkook's chest tossed up and down, his heart racing like he just ran a marathon. "What if some girl kidnapped me because I rejected her?"





A scream erupts from the back of k his throat when a giant creature jumped on him. He struggles with the fluffy hairs that were licking his face. He was too scared to think normally right now.





Suddenly, a click could be heard. The room gets bright with the yellow light. Jungkook opens his eyes, getting blind by the sudden brightness. "Browny!" The dog runs toward the owner of the voice, sitting near his owner's feet with his tongue poking out his mouth, as he tilts his head curiously at the man sitting up in shock.






"You-You have a dog!?" He questioned, his voice becoming louder as the sentence ended.





"Why? Is it illegal?" She raised her brows as her shoulders raised in a shrug. "But I never-wait! I never thought of you as an animal lover." She sighs as she picks the fluff ball in her hands, taking him toward the sofa. "You dunno a thing about me."





Jungkook nodded in agreement. She was right, he doesn't know anything about her-just her brother, her dog, her fake names, she smokes, she drinks....and....nothing. Jungkook heaves a sigh, standing from his place.







He looks curiously around the room staring at every corner. To his shock, the room was surprisingly tidy. He never thought she would be a clean person. All three walls were painted black except the wall behind the bed which was grey with a Boston dark grey floor that seemed so cool to Jungkook. Some paintings which he never saw in his life were hung behind the bed. In the left corner, there was a huge wardrobe-but there were almost no clothes in it except some black leather jackets and graphic tees.






There were huge shelves on the right on which she placed some plants and some classical music CDs. A huge window was covered with black silk curtains, refraining the light from shining inside. The yellow lights brightening the room seemed so cozy and comfortable. There was also a cute little house for browny.






Jungkook was in awe and he couldn't stop staring at her room. He wished he had this type of room instead of the walls he painted on. Her room was giving modern vibes. If only it was his room-he would have made it cuter. "Her room is so cool!!"




"Stop staring at the room?"





"It's so cool how can I not?





"Anyway, why I'm here?" He queried, stretching his limbs and crouching immediately in pain. "You fainted." She replied, stroking the golden retriever. Jungkook jerks his head towards her with his eyes as wide as balls. "Me? What?"





Suddenly, it clicked as he recalled the whole incident, a smile stretched his lips as his eyes shined in excitement. But his smile immediately faded away when it hit him that he was bandaged but what about her? He took long strides towards her, a firm look etched on his face.




She eyed him up and down, not knowing what was on his mind. She ignored the towering man, snuggling her head in browny's fluffy chairs. "Take off your cap!" He stated, his arms folded on his waist. She once again ignored him, resisting the urge to through him outside of her window.




"You bandaged me but what about you?"


"I did it myself."



"So, show me?"




She scoffed, laughing at his tricks. "Are you a pervert? Or are you gonna use that trick to see my face?" He slants his head, with his eyes narrowed. "Do you think that low of me? I'm seriously trying to take care of you! Like you did-"




"I don't care for you!!" She grits her teeth, her nails digging into her palm. "I don't care for anyone!" She thought, more like assured herself. Jungkook chuckled, shaking his head. "Do you think I'm going to believe it? If you don't care then why did you fight for me? You could have just let me get beaten or probably killed. But why did you fight?"





She ignored him, her breathing becoming heavier. "This time I want an answer. I'm not going to stay silent. Why are you running away from the truth? Why are you faking your emotions? You told your brother that he's a coward and vulnerable but you're the vulnerable one. Why? You're afraid. And you don't face your fears! It's nothing wrong to make friends and show your emotions! Get that thing inside your fucking brain! What are you so afraid of-"





"STOP!!" She yells, waving her hand, her hand shivering. But Jungkook had no plans to stop. He was determined today. "Why? Does the truth hurt you? What happened that you're so afraid of meeting new people? What happened is that you are rude to your brother while all he does is care for you! What's wrong with making friends and opening up to someone?!-" she shakes her head, tears seeping down her face.






"-No one is going to say you're ugly if that's what you're afraid of. Don't give a shit about people! Face your fears-" black dots started to appear in her vision, as her breathing became fast and unstable. "I-can't....breath..." She whispered in a shaky voice, trying to keep her eyes open. Her whisper was so low that Jungkook couldn't hear it and he kept talking, not knowing the effect on her.





"I can't...... breathe! Help me J-Jungkook!" And her body fell limp on the sofa."Yo-Shadow?" He shakes her, he could feel his heartbeat in his throat. His lips trembled as he took her name, shaking her with force. Jungkook sniffed, his eyes filling up with water. "I shouldn't have done that." He regretted, shaking his head from left to right.





Jungkook quickly picks browny who was peacefully sleeping out of her lap and gently places him inside his huge house. He picks her up in bridal style, striking toward his home to take her to the hospital. Jungkook opened the door of his car with difficulty and places her inside gently. "Thank God! I didn't park the car inside yet." He quickly moved towards his seat and plops on it.






Jungkook grabbed his phone, calling the one who thought should be informed whether she likes it or not. "Hello...." He gulps his saliva, thinking about how to break the news. "I-I am Jungkook..." The line went silent, as he glanced at the unconscious body behind him.





Yoongi sits up, ruffling his hair. "Why are you calling me this late?" He asks in a deep and low voice. "Shadow-" Yoongi immediately stood up like someone put some batteries in him and he was's full of energy. "What happened to her?!"



"She fainted."




"Jeon Fucking Jungkook! You son of a bit-" He cuts the call, making the boy shiver in fear.



Unknown:

"Send me the address of the hospital. Immediately!"




Jungkook sends the address with trembling hands, hoping he would stay alive after this.
