Chereads / The Diagnosis / Chapter 2 - Two

Chapter 2 - Two

"Tae give it back to me!"  I shouted.

"Nope." he smiled and started running down the street.

"You little..!" I run after him, rain pouring down from the sky as if someone forgot to turn off the pipe, making us totally wet.

"Taehyung!!" he kept on running even further away from me.

"Just you wait! Once I catch ya, you're dead!" I guess my threats didn't have any effect on him since he just kept smiling like crazy.

Suddenly, like an invisible wall, something appeared in front of me blocking my way and making me fall down on the road. Shit! It hurt like hell. I lifted my head up prepared to give scolding of the century to the one who bumped into me. But once our eyes met, I was left speechless.

Oh... My... Gosh...

"I-i.." I was about to speak but he just walked past me.

I watched him leave, sitting still on a hard road, soaked as the rain kept on falling. The surrounding became all blurry at that moment. No sounds, no rain, no people. Just him, me and my heart that may burst any moment. I lifted my hand on the chest, on a place where my heart was, hoping it would calm it down a little. It was beating 300 km/h.

"What's happening to me??" I asked myself while staring in the direction where he left. Taehyung finally came up to me after realizing that I wasn't chasing after him anymore. He asked what happened and if I was hurt anywhere, worry evident on his face. All I was able to do is shake my head, eyes not taking off the direction in which the mysterious man left. Something about him gave me chills, but in a good way.

The next day, I got out of my bed, my thoughts still having a bit left of that mysterious boy. It seems like he cast some kind of spell on me. That could be the only reason why I am not acting like myself since our encounter. Having a small conversation with myself inside the head, I went downstairs and into the kitchen. This is the second place out of my favourite ones. It is usually filled with tons of different enjoyable scents. Unfortunately, that isn't the case this morning.

"Is there something to eat?" I asked my mom while placing down the book I took with myself.

"Sorry honey but I didn't make anything. I didn't have time. I have to hurry to work. Make yourself something. Gotta run. See ya later sweetie."

She kissed my forehead and left the house. I sigh deeply knowing she must've stayed up the whole night writing once again. She was a novelist and most of the time she spent closed in her workroom writing up different stories only to get them all thrown away because they did not fit her agencies standards. I always hated that about agencies. They keep using people whichever way they want to make themselves satisfied and successful. Roaming through the fridge, I wasn't able to find anything special so I just took the ingredients that I need to make myself a sandwich.

Completing my first-morning task, I stared at the beauty that was laying on the plate in front of me. "Here comes Park Jimin. You better be prepared." with that, I took my first bite of the sandwich which in my opinion was a masterpiece.

Loud ringing started coming from inside the living, filling the kitchen with the sound that I knew very well. It was my phone. I walked over and picked it up from the couch where it seems that I left it last night after reaching home. "Yash?" I answer it with a mouth full of food.

"Eating again?" Jungkook questions from the other side of the line.

"Dap."

"Come with us!" Taehyung yelled over the line.

"What are you doing over at Jungkook?"  I questioned Taehyung.

"Doesn't matter. Are you coming with us."

"Where? I have to study."

"Fuck studying. Let go!"

"But where?!"

"Be at my place in five minutes!" and with that Jungkook ended the call. I stared at my phone in confusion before heaving a deep sigh.

"These two... I really can't deal with them.."

I went over to Jungkook as soon as I finished with my breakfast. It didn't take me longer than 30 min to get dressed and reach his house. As always, I entered the house without knocking. It was a common thing for us since we were friends since kindergarten. Taehyung joined us later when we started elementary school and since then, we always did things as a group of three. There wasn't a single thing that I didn't know about these two and likewise. Or at least that's what I thought. Entering the house, I was faced with a scene that made me freeze in my tracks. Jungkook and Taehyung were kissing. Feeling my whole face heating up, I turned away from them both embarrassment and confusion overwhelming me.

"Umm... Hey..." I say shyly, after coughing a little.

"Jimin!" Taehyung shouted embarrassed, moving away from Jungkook.

"Man! Can't you knock!" said Jungkook.

"Dude ya know I never knock when I come to your place," I stated which made Jungkook sigh.

"You can turn around now," Taehyung says and I do as I'm told. They put on their jackets and we leave the place.

"So... You're..." I was about to ask them but Jungkook cut me off immediately.

"Don't ask anything!"

I was walking between the two of them. This is so damn uncomfortable."You two are together?" finally, I asked.

"No!" Taehyung shouted.

"Just be quiet," said Jungkook, looking away.

"Okay..." I said quietly.

After about a 15 min walk, which seemed entirety to me, we reached the cinema. "Yah!! No, no, noo... I knew it! You're taking me to watch a horror movie and you want me to die!" I protested after figuring out what these two were up to.

"C'mon dude. Nothing will happen to you." Jungkook said as they pulled me inside.

Shit! Shit! Shit! I went in and found a seat. The movie started and in the beginning, everything was fine but then...  I screamed and hugged Jungkook in fear. Shit! I hate them! Why is he still bleeding?? Don't go over there you fucking idiot!!! No!! Oh my God! Did his head just fall off?! I told you not to go over there!!

The more I think about it, I don't even know the reason why I still hang out with these two. All they keep doing it torturing me. For the whole movie, my eyes were closed most of the time and I kept close to Jungkook, hugging him as if my life depended on it whether he was there or not. Once all of it was over, I took a deep breath and collapsed into the seat. I seriously thought that my soul will leave this body of mine.

"It's over, let's go." said a familiar voice from behind. I turned my head in the direction of the voice and there was Jungkook standing, looking down on me.

"Wait!" if Jungkook was behind me, then who was the person sitting next to me?! I panicked, jumping up on my legs from the seat, turning my head to the person who was sitting next to me. He stood up as well, his face being on the same level as mine. Once again, the same scenario from the last time repeated itself. The mysterious guy with his strong presence. Again, he wore all black, mask and a hat covering even more of his features than the last time it did. He only spared me a glance before leaving in a different direction.

"You are... But he... I mean I was... How?!"

"What are you talking about?" asked Taehyung making me turn towards him.

"This whole time I was hugging someone because I was scared of the movie! I thought it was you Jungkook!!" I panicked. Jungkook just laughed it off.

"Wait! Does that mean you wanted to hug Jungkook?!!" Taehyung asked, obviously annoyed. Not wanting to be found out, Jungkook hit him with his elbow in the stomach making the older one crunch down in pain. I chuckled a little at Taehyung since he was obviously jealous. Then I turned toward the guy in black. He was already at the exit of the room.

"Which guy?" asked Jungkook. I point at him with my finger.

"He smelled nice..." I confessed.

"Then he had the same perfume as me," Jungkook said as we all made our way out.

"No. He smelled of cigarettes and some deodorant. But there was also a bit of mint..." I said, remembering his presence next to me.

We went out of the cinema and I looked around for Jungkook and Tae since they once again went missing. I'll really get old if I keep on searching for them so many times in just one day. It's so tiring. Spotted them by the exit, I waved and they came up to me.

"Where to now?" asked Tae.

"Wait! Where have you two been?" I asked, interrupting his question.

"We went to the restroom." Jungkook answer.

"Both of you?"  I asked again, being suspicious of the mention two. I raised my eyebrow at them, but they just ignored my question. I smiled and looked in the opposite direction of them. Suddenly, in the crowd, I spotted the guy from earlier. He is talking to someone. That someone playfully takes off his hat and puts it on his own head instead. The guy in black just kept smiling at the other person.

Oh, my Gosh... Shit... One big shit...

That is him. Oh my God, it really is him. That beautiful guy with mint hair I collided with yesterday. Now I am 100% sure that it is him.

Fuck!!

He looked at me! But I didn't avert my gaze. I kept on looking at him with intense eyes.  Oh my God... Why is my heart beating like this?! Calm down you stupid heart or you're gonna burst and make me die.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!?

He smiled! He smiled at me!! AT ME!! Gosh, he knows I was hugging him during the movie. I blushed hard and turned my head away from him. I'm gonna go crazy! I feel like some crazy teenage girl that feel in love and now her crush finally noticed her!

"Hyung, what's wrong? Are you alright?" Jungkook asked, noticing the state I was in.

"I'm fine. Let's go!" I said walking away home the fastest I could, leaving both of them dumbfounded. It didn't take them long though to catch up with me, but I'm glad that for the rest of the trip home, no one said a thing.

Once we reached the porch of my house, I bid them goodbye and went inside. Mom wasn't here yet which I was thankful for the first time in my life. I took off my jacket and sat on my bed.

"Aaaaaaaaaa...!!!" I took the pillow and buried my face in it before screaming my heart out. My cheeks were burning. Literally burning like they were on fire! I fell in love! There's no turning back! I fell for him very very hard. But, I know nothing about him... That's the biggest problem. I must find out who he is and what he likes... Right then his face popped up in my head.

"Arghh..!! Why is he so beautiful!!" I started screaming into the pillow again.

Okay heart, please calm down. Take it easy. I took a deep breath before coming to a conclusion.

I MUST FIND HIM!
