Jungkook sighed for the nth time twisting and turning in the couch he is laying on. He doesn't feel like going to bed nowadays. He mostly rolls up on the couch lately. He didn't care about his dress or shower or food. He just want to sleep.
He wants to take a break from his mind whose continually playing the innocent face of the younger. He wants to take rest but his mind has not been supportive lately. He always thinks about the younger the whole day.
He cursed himself for falling in love when he himself wanted just a feeling less robot for himself. He sighed for the last time before keeping his arms on his head hiding his face and closing his eyes trying to sleep for a while.
It was 3 am but still he couldn't sleep at all. All he could see was the innocent scared eyes looking towards him. He was lost in his thoughts when he heard soft foot steps coming from the stares.
He didn't say anything. May be Taehyung came for water. The steps lead to the kitchen. He didn't care and just closed his eyes and pretended to be sleeping.
He heard the running tap and soft cling and clang of the utensils. He heard the footsteps again. This time reaching close to him. But he chose to stay still and pretend to be sleeping.
The next moment he felt soft hands caressing his feet. The hands slowly took off his socks and cleaned his feet with a warm towel. He took the water back to the kitchen and brought a duvet with him. He slowly picked the duvet and covered him.
Taehyung sat near his legs and leaned to the couch keeping his hands on the edge.
" I'm sorry Jungkook-shi, for being a burden to you. " He whispered with a soft voice. Not wanting to disturb his sleep.
" I'm sorry, I couldn't take care of you. You shouldn't skip meals Jungkook-shi, it is not good for your health." A tear rolled down his cheeks.
"I'm sorry for coming into your life, for making it a mess. But I'm thankful that you came into my life, Jungkook-shi.
Without y-you I would have been stuck in t-that p-place. I-I can't imagine what would h-happen if you didn't come back for me." he wiped his tears.
" Thank you so much for saving my life. " he looked to the table where the gift was placed. He bit his lower lips.
Jungkook slowly opened his eyes slightly to see the younger. Thanks to the dim light of the room and the arm covering his face, Taehyung couldn't see his face to tell he was not sleeping.
Is he crying?
" I'm sorry, I couldn't afford any expensive gift for you like Jennie-shi. But I promise that watch was the most valuable thing I ever had.....
I hope she takes care of you, make you happy. I'm sorry I couldn't make you happy. I promise Jungkook-shi I would never have asked to get married if I knew you already had her.
But I promise, I will never come between you. " he wiped his tears and chuckled sadly.
Why does it hurt to see you cry Taehyung?
" I can never compare myself with her. She is so beautiful. You will look perfect together. " he closed his eyes tightly and bit his lips.
But you are beautiful. The most beautiful I have ever seen.
" I don't have anyone left, Jungkook-shi. No family, No friends. I only have you now. And I promise to serve you and your family till my last breath. You can d-divorce m-me. You are free to marry h-her." he clutches his tops tightly.
" I will never interfere in your life. I promise.... But it hurts... My heart aches when I see you. It pains here Jungkook-shi." He clutched his shirt right on his heart.
What does that mean?
" I wish you could look at me like you look at her. "
What?
" I wish you could love me like you love her. "
He loves me?
" It hurts a lot to see you with her Jungkook-shi. I wish you could ever love me. "
A teardrop rolled through his cheeks looking at the younger cry. He wanted to get up and hug him tightly but he didn't. He couldn't. He just looked at the crying figure, holding the duvet tightly.
Taehyung sobbed hard, leaning on his knees. He cried for a while and slowly went back to his room without making any noise.
Jungkook slowly got up and looked towards the stairs with teary eyes but with a smile.
Thank you Taehyung ! Thank you so much...
