Imperfect Worlds
Goodbye, My Happy ending?¹
The darkened gray blanket of wool enshrouded the sky; like a predator would encircle its little prey.
The wet season wasn't supposed to start for another couple of weeks, but the darkened gray smudges were a clear indication of rain.
A low rumble rang loud in the cool air, startling him a bit.
Trickles of liquid fell down as if they couldn't think of anything better to do.There was a bit of laziness about them.
A lone figure clad in a white suit stood at the balcony of a condo. The entire condo was dark with a single exception of a computer screen.
A weibo profile was opened on the browser. Profile ID- Jung Jaehyun has uploaded a post thirteen minutes ago. The handwritten note in the photo stated.
I guess it was just wishful thinking on my part that I spent years waiting for a happy ending.
Now...I'm just too tired...
Jung Jaehyun <🖥️>
The post might be short but Jaehyun had embosomed him heartfelt feelings. Feelings he was too scared to say out loud.
When the diffused gray light of the dark sky pushed light, it fell on the lone figure of a young man. As the cold wind stroked his body, he shivered instinctively but didn't move.
He outstretched his bare arm, the rain droplets splattered on his fingers. Feeling the cold raindrops caressing his fingers.
The pitter-patter of the raindrops mixed with the sound of the sad melody behind him, it was oddly comforting.
He could remember his words...
One day, your life will flash before your eyes, make sure it's worth watching.
Jung Jaehyun~
Jung Jaehyun
Was my life worth watching?
<wondered to himself before sneering at his own ridiculous thoughts>
Unknown
Jung Jaehyun, don't be delusional. You're nothing more than a green tea dog! Who cares that you're the pure God of the entertainment industry worshipped by millions?
A mocking voice ran in his mind
Unknown
Look, I just proved to the world that you're nothing more than a lowly man-whôre who slept his way up. Let's see for how long can you hold your pride!
Was He really a Man-whôre?
He had worked his entire life, just so he could raise his head with dignity between those upper-class school fellows of him.
But being a righteous and hardworking artist(Actor) could only amount to him being a Man-whôre?
People idolized him! Worshipped him like a god but he was still a Man-whôre for those elite class people.
Unknown
Jaehyun, you've really left me with no pride. Is that why I raised you? I helped you become the top star just so you could ruin my name with your filthy scandals?
Unknown
What kind of a crime did I commit to being stuck with an ungrateful and useless son like you?
His mother's piercing words echoed in his mind.
He was the product of a broken family. And he had a broken life, striving to survive with his broken desires.
But in the end, even he left him with a broken heart...
His status was far above his(Jaehyun) own and Jaehyun knew that from the beginning but he couldn't stop himself from falling in love with that perfect person.
And the naive Jaehyun believed him
Unknown
I will never let you be wronged!
And Jaehyun even believed that
Unknown
In this life, only you deserve to be my life!
He actually believed every word that cheap-hearted told him.
Perhaps, Jaehyun needed a wake-up call. Oddly, his wake-up call was too much for his already fragile yet bold heart to take.
Jaehyun laughed at his own self in a scornful and contemptuous manner. Not knowing when that laughed turned into a streak of tears that flowed softly and steadily down his flushed cheeks.
He covered his mouth to stop those sobs from escaping. But for how long could one hold a buried ache.
On the cold balcony, his eyes were closed and as if he could hear all those voices screaming at him, he took a step forward, letting the cold wind and rain wash him down.
To numb his pain that had been gnawing at his heart.
The world didn't matter. Scorn always accompanied fame~
But what broke him was his loved one's words...
No matter how he tried to explain, she didn't listen. He begged him to trust him but he didn't.
Was their love so shallow?
It was so fragile that he couldn't even give him one thing he asked for...TRUST!
As the raindrops trickled down his body, drenching him, he stood rooted. Not moving at all. Not letting himself feel anything.
Jung Jaehyun
I wonder if you'll miss me if I'm gone...
Jung Jaehyun
I wonder if you'll believe in me once I'm no more...
Wondering this to himself, his bare feet touched the surface of the wicked chair as he stood on it looking down.
From the twenty-fifth floor of the building, everything seemed surreal in the dark; overshadowed by the gray clouds.
Closing his eyes gently, Jaehyun smiled in satisfaction.
Jaehyun slumped his body ahead and the next second, he felt the strong wind slapping his face as his body started falling fast.
Jung Jaehyun
Goodbye, my happy ending!
<soft whisper left through his pale and trembling lips>
Don't spend time worrying about the dusk that has already enshrouded you.
Let your heart hope for the dawn of a new beginning
Jaehyun~♡

How was the chapter~
Author
I will continue to write this story as per your demands~
Free from the Past²
The darkness had surrendered as the sun as a canopy of gold, blooming like a flower in the horizon. Every tinge of dark charcoal slowly changed its color to vibrancy.
It was the break of dawn...Dawn of endless possibilities, new hopes and a desire to make those dreams come true which the previous night had left behind.
In the white linen sheets, a tall and slender body stretched before rolling out of the comfortable sheets to pull the thick curtains.
A pair of light honey-brown eyes slowly opened to blink towards the sun. The sun of this very day which he wasn't once promised.
He let that moment to sink in, to soothe him very core with those nascent rays that softly caressed his skin~
He was fascinated by the beauty of this tranquility that seemed to have filled him and the warmth that he felt, reminding him once again that...He was still alive!
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
The man in the mirror didn't look anything like his previous self. Those honey- brown orbs were complete contrast to his raven ones.
They say~ After every painful ending, a new beginning is promised.
He never expected that he would get a chance to have a new beginning as well.
But he got his new beginning when he woke up in this body five years ago. But even after spending five years in this body, he couldn't bring himself to call it his own. However, he was on the pursuit of making this life him.
Life was heavy for once and he eventually lost the strength to carry it's burden. One would think that a shattered heart would weigh lighter but who knew that each shattered piece would weigh down on his soul like a tremendous boulder.
It weighed him down so much that he eventually let himself fall to his death.
Standing under the showerhead, he left the warm water comfort his broken self. After a warm shower to start the day.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
💭 Let's pick up another piece of our heart today to start over. Fighting!
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
It had become a routine of him to remind himself that he needed to start over and for that he needed to free himself from his past life. And to free himself, he had to pick each little piece of his heart that was cast away. Because by only freeing himself, he could hope for a better future. With the painful experience of death once.
He had learned what happy ending truly was; It was just moving on~
In the past five years, his only motive in life was to move on~
But as soon as he entered the living room, a strong stench of alcohol assaulted his senses making him cough.
He looked around only to find the previously elegant looking hall to turn into a garbage den. Empty wine bottles literated the floor along with empty ice cream boxes and plenty of other junk food packets.
He rubbed the space between his brows and sighed out while shaking his head. The look of the living room was enough to tell him the tale of what conspired here.
He trotted up to the couch and found that beautiful omega sleeping in a very unlikely posture with his one leg dangling down.
He pulled the soft throw blanket which was half- tucked under that gorgeous omega's body making him fall with a thump on the thick carpet.
Park Jimin
Jungkook-ie! Can't you make me up like a normal person?
Jimin on the floor was rubbing his buttock with a painful pout. His dark chocolate brown eyes were blinking at Jungkook like an abandoned kitten.
Park Jimin was the original owner's aka Jeon Jungkook's best friend. But in the past year, Jaehyun aka Jungkook consider Jimin to be his own best friend.
The Jung Jaehyun who never dared to make friends in his previous life because of the scheming entertainment industry which he was a part of, now had a best friend whom he considered to be a family.
Park Jimin
What kind of a best friend are you? Aren't you suppose to comfort me for going through a breakup? But here you are jeering at me. ⊙﹏⊙
Park Jimin
Heartless hooman! ಥ╭╮ಥ
Jungkook was busy cleaning up the mess that Jimin has created last night while he heard his complaints in amusement.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
Jimin-na, this was your third breakup this month. I don't think you need my moral support.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
The wine and ice cream must have done you justice already. ┐( ˘_˘)┌
Park Jimin
My darling Jungkook-ie~ No wine, and no ice-cream can replace your single hug. ⊂(・▽・⊂)
Jimin even opened his arms wide blinking his big eyes earnestly.
Jungkook had to give in to the antics of this best friend. He hugged him pleasantly before scrunching up his nose.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
Ew!
He pushed Jimin away while waving his hand before his nose.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
Please go and take a shower. You smell like urgh! 🤢
Park Jimin
That was mean of you! 😤
<crossed his arms before his chest>
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
<ruffled his messy hair>
Who told you to take relationships so casually?
Park Jimin
Isn't it obvious?
<asked in disbelief>
Park Jimin
I haven't met the one who can make me seriously rethink about our relationship. Anyway, let's not talk about it.
Park Jimin
My baby Jungkook-ie, why are you looking so gorgeous early in the morning? (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
I have to leave early today.I won't be doing breakfast with you as well.
<looking at his wristwatch>
Park Jimin
No! No! My baby Jungkook-ie, don't abandon me. You know I don't like eating alone. 🥺
<tugged at his arm like a child>
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
Jimin darling, today is the first day of interns. I have to be one time.
<placated this big child and picked up his bag to leave>
Park Jimin
Have a good day, Baby Jungkook-ie! (~￣³￣)~
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
You too, my sweet mochi! ( ˘ ³˘)
Always have a unique character like a "Salt" It's, Presence is not felt.
But Its, absence make everything tasteless~

Yoo! My fragile hearts~(｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡
How was the chapter~
Author
Our main character Jung Jaehyun transmigrated five years ago in this new body of Jeon Jungkook.
But he has no memories that belonged to the original owner(Jeon Jungkook)
Author
I'll explain everything gradually!
Like a piece of paper³
One would think that having no memories of the original owner, Jaehyun(Jungkook) was given a chance to a clean slate to fill it with his own story.
But only he knew how difficult it was to pretend to be someone you have no clue about. Being a professional actor, he knew how to immerse himself into a role but here he was clueless. There was no script or any impression of the real Jeon Jungkook.
He was lost. He was living with the burden of not knowing whose life he had snatched and why?
All he knew was that he wanted to do justice for the departed soul. Even in these five years, he couldn't find a fragment of a memory that belonged to the real Jeon Jungkook.
After an hour-long bus ride, he finally reached the Sky-building of Spark International Group.
Jaehyun- The Alpha who had gone through death. And yet survived miraculously through rebirth.
He sniggered at the word "Rebirth"! It seemed so foolish to even himself even when he had experienced it first hand.
According to Jaehyun, this supernatural phenomenon was only suited for fiction stories and now, his own life had become like one.
Today's Jaehyun(Jungkook) was nothing like that God that people admired or scorned at the end. He didn't want to be that naive again. Perhaps that's He never even tried to look back or tried to find out what was going on in the capital.
After his Re carnation, he had completely let go of the past that belonged to Jung Jaehyun!
He was fine being an ordinary person in the city. It was peaceful here with no one to point fingers at him again. It's easy to point fingers, but those people could never understand what Jaehyun had to bear.
People said Jung Jaehyun committed suicide. Jaehyun would say~
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
💭 You all killed me. How could a coward like me even dare to jump? It was your accusations that pushed me down that balcony.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
But unfortunately, he couldn't change the past...
And neither did he want to anymore. This wasn't his body and he had no right to solve his personal grudges when he couldn't even solve the ones the original soul left behind.
He entered the elevator and stood at the back while others filled in.
Unknown
You're getting new interns today!
Said the person standing next to Jungkook. Jungkook didn't respond as he let the enthusiastic man beside him continue.
Unknown
You feel the tension in the elevator. It's all your fault!
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
What did I do? 🤨
His kind but a talkative colleague pointed at the back of two people who were standing at the front of the elevator as he whispered.
Unknown
That perky girl who looks really excited is actually Huh Yunjin and that timid and shy boy beside her is Kyung Seungmin. They both are in your team.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
How do you know that?
Jungkook knew he was nosy, but why was he more familiar with his team than he was?
Jang Mingyu
Huh Yunjin's cousin works in the Design Department and she was really worried when she learned that you'll be the supervisor of new interns.
Jungkook frowned slightly and seeing that he continued.
Jang Mingyu
You have a reputation in not just our department. They call you heartless in the Planning Department for a reason.
<shrugged>
Jang Mingyu
Besides, Mr. Jeon Jungkook, you're only twenty-three years old and still you've gotten double promotions in the past three years.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
So? Is it my fault for trying my best?
Jungkook really didn't care what others thought of him.
Jang Mingyu
Of course, not. Your excellent performance is right before everyone.😃
Jang Mingyu
Besides, I think there is no one in our company who doesn't know that you're that Alpha who topped the college entrance exam during his batch and also managed to get the bachelor's degree within just two years.
Jungkook was certainly satisfied to hear all this but he didn't show it on his face at all.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
💭 Ahy~ I didn't know I was famous again. Seems like I wasn't born to lay low-key.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
Jang Mingyu
But I think you should be nice to interns this. ╮(╯_╰)╭
<some sympathy on his face>
Jang Mingyu
I know you love wearing the interns down but please, go easy. I think every intern must have already gotten the memo not to mess with you or you'll crush them like a piece of paper. ლ(◕ω◕ლ)
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
💭 When did I crush someone like a piece of paper? I'm not a shredding machine! ┐( ˘_˘)┌
With a cardboard box in his hand, Jungkook entered the meeting room where the interns were asked to gather for their briefing. Without even saying a word, he pulled out the business cards and placed it on the table to distribute.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
Let's skip the introduction since you must have heard a lot about me already.
His eyes lingered on every intern as he said those words making the poor interns cower back in their seat.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
I'm Jeon Jungkook. And that's all you need to know about me.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
As for our rules, I'll say it once. Don't make me repeat myself.
He paced around the meeting room passing behind each and every one of them like a looming death verdict.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
The first rule, I hate tardiness. Don't let me find you ditching work.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
I hate excuses. Unless you're dying, don't let me hear you say that you want a day off.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
He dropped a thick file on the table making them flinch at the loud sound as he went on.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
And the most important rule, mind your own business. The planning department hates gossips the most. Don't even dare to test my patience.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
He was about to turn to leave when he halted to say.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
Oh, let me enlighten you. I might not crumble interns like a piece of paper as you've gotten the memo but I love making their life hell.
Jeon Jungkook (Jaehyun's soul)
His voice stern at the end making everyone's heart jolt especially, Huh Yunjin who was cursing her luck.
Be Heartless~ Because this is the wrong generation for those people, who have a good heart.
Karma~♡
