Shattered & Whole
forsaken.blamed.freedom
another day another morning
A sign leaves from his mouth
one shouldn't feel this tired in the morning itself should they? I guess they can
jungkook's slowly rubs his eyes with his fingers while the frown not leaving his face from the moment he woke up..
he gets down from the bed and starts walking towards the washroom freshening up..while his mind doesn't shut up from the moment he woke up
well his mind has a valid reason for not shutting up though
jungkook walks towards the mirror and stares ar his frown and frowns even more ahh this keep on getting worse and worse and the reason?
tomorrow is the first day of his final year of high school and that's not even the issue..the issue is that today is Sunday and everyone in his family would be down in the hall for breakfast...he cannot he literally can't deal with that
Sundays are worst cause he has to TALK to his parents..I mean shouldn't it be a happy thing for kids of his age or anyone at this matter but NO that's not how it works here
after freshening up he comes out of the washroom wearing his comfort clothes a baggy pant and a loose white shirt that makes him look smaller and also gives comfort cuz of its soft fur..he needs them today for all the shit he has to put up
he slowly gets out of his cocoon and gets down to the hall...everyone are present there his mother father and his younger brother
Jeon shin hye
Morning jungkook!
Jeon shin hye
why are you getting down so late
Jeon shin hye
look at your younger brother he woke up at 6 without anyone waking him up and got down fast unlike you
Jeon Jungkook
hmm *looks down*
Jeon Min ho
what can we do my dear
Jeon Min ho
he stopped listening to us anyway
I was late by 10 minutes and that's it boom!!
jeons are one of the wealthiest families in Seoul...it's not just a wealth that was earned by his father...they have generational wealth that was bestowed from their great grandfather's of many generations...everyone of them has to carry the responsibilities along with the wealth..a name to carry..a respect to earn...an image to maintain..
it has always been the sophisticated kind of life that they lead and the worst part is no one seems to have a problem with it expect for jungkook..guess who's the black sheep then
everyone went and sat at the dinning table while the food was being served by the maids of the house
just when everyone started to eat
Jeon Min ho
how was your school going on?
nope he is not asking jungkook but his brother
Jeon young woo
*chews in between*
Jeon shin hye
don't talk while chewing woo
Jeon shin hye
*whips the food from his mouth*
Jeon Min ho
what about yours jungkook?
it is actually very good for jungkook..going to school is like escaping from this hell hole of house...and with the escape you will always have friend to keep you company and books to keep you busy..school was the only thing jungkook enjoys
Jeon Min ho
which year are you studying?
Jeon Jungkook
final year of highschool
Jeon Jungkook
*talks after chewing*
not a surprise..they always forget what I'm studying..not pressuring is one thing..but not giving two fucks about what you are doing is another thing..
Jeon Min ho
did you decide what course you are going to take?
Jeon Min ho
you are going study business
that wasn't a question.an option.its a command. where you don't even have the right to say no.
Jeon Jungkook
*clenching his fists*
silence was all that's left in the room..no one talked after that..everyone were busy eating while jungkook was hurrying so that he could go to his room fast
it's no like he can skip his food it's just gonna affect him later
Jeon Jungkook
*left without looking back*
he didn't care enough to look back and see the irritated expression of his parents who were pissed at him for leaving cuz for them everyone should leave at the same time..as if that would portray them all as loving happy family eating together..ahh gwad never
my parents weren't that bad..well atleast not to my brother..they were always a happy family if you leave me out of it
they doesn't give 2 shits about me nor about how I live atleast that's good right I could escape the annoying nagging like every kid get from their parents..right?
there is a difference between raising a child out of responsibility and out of love
that shows..they always give me the bare minimum that should be enough right..while they give a whole loads for my brother...ik it shouldn't bother me but it does...it does every fucking time
he isn't that small to begin with we have just 2 yrs age gap
guess that 2 yrs gap makes me the eldest and most responsible one
after all these thoughts running in jungkooks mind somehow the day came to am end...he didn't eat lunch nor dinner couldn't get down and face his parents
with all the sounds of his stomach growling he fell asleep
A smile form's on his face
Jeon Jungkook
it's Monday!!
he hurried to washroom to get to his school after all it's the first day
Jeon Jungkook
focused I'm focused~
the boi was so excited that he started singing while showering
and he was done with all the packing way before the week so all he has to do was get them and get the fuck away from the house
he went down saw his parents eating
Jeon shin hye
jungkook come eat
Jeon Jungkook
no its fine I'll go
he didn't wait for the reply he just left while his driver was waiting infront of the house..he and his brother go to different schools so he didn't have to wait for him... best thing that happened this year
Seoul highschool is the best and most prestigious school in entire Seoul
though it's a typical rich kids school there are kids who read way hard and are way more intelligent than their classmates just like jungkook
though jungkook doesn't care about ranks and marks he likes to read and that comes with an advantage and that is praises
he loves it when he get praised
A kid who is deprived of such words from house will try to hear it from someone else won't they
that's why he always studies hard and ranks first in almost every exam...even in every other activities that are held
the praises and the confidence he gets from them oh gwad he trives through it
every student either admires him or hates him...well who cares his one and only friend doesn't hate him at all and they are like the best buddies not leaving one another and sticking them selves like a fucking glue
jungkook walks to his class steady.focused.calm he has an image to maintain a discipline to follow an attitude to portray
he walks inside his classroom and finds his bestie already sitting on one seat while spreading his leg on the other one
he walks straight to him and boiii the other one gets up in a bolt and hugs him
Jeon Jungkook
*getting crushed in the hug*
Jeon Jungkook
l-let me breathe *huff*
Jackson Wang
*breaks the hug*
Jackson Wang
bruhh it's just a hug
Jeon Jungkook
yaa a big ass one in that *rolls his eyes*
Jackson Wang
How are the holidays huh
Jeon Jungkook
bad.worse.worst
Jeon Jungkook
could've been even worse but I managed
Jackson Wang
that's why I told you to come to my parties
Jackson Wang
so that you could blow off some stream
Jeon Jungkook
if I did that I would've given them another reason to insult me
Jackson looks at jungkook wanting to console him but he knows that wasn't what jungkook needed..he didn't need any consolidation nor pity all he need is an escape..an escape is all that mattered
Jackson Wang
(didn't want to continue the convo)
Jackson Wang
soo you said you had some plan
Jeon Jungkook
yeah right about that
Jeon Jungkook
our maths professor texted me about an exam that will be conducted for only few top students of top schools and only one can get the scholarship for the further studies in abroad
Jeon Jungkook
and you know how much I love math
Jackson Wang
wait.wait a min
Jackson Wang
but what about you parents
Jeon Jungkook
they would probably let me go cause you know
Jeon Jungkook
they could tell everyone that their kid is smartest and all
Jackson Wang
OMGG!!!JK!!!!
Jackson Wang
*shouts out loud*
Jeon Jungkook
*smiles wide showing his bunny teeth*
Jeon Jungkook
but I would miss you *pouts slightly*
Jackson Wang
nah bitch don't worry
Jackson Wang
I would follow you even there
Jackson Wang
I would just ask my dad
it was that easy for Jackson...well his family isn't that strict and jackson is one troublesome kid and sending him of for studies ooh his father would cry of happy tears
anyone
Good Morning students
Everyone: good morning sir!!
anyone
A new student joined our school today
anyone
I hope you all welcome with warm hearts
anyone
help him adjust okay!
anyone
come inside *gestures him*
A student walks inside his walk so measured and leisure..as if he has the whole time in the world..one hand in his pocket while the other moving with his leg moment..his posture so straight as if walking straight from a magazine photoshoot
his expression was blank...not even ounce of nervousness..nothing just blank...his eyes looked dead like it lacked some spark or he just doesn't care about people infront of him
anyone
introduce yourself boy
Kim Taehyung
I'm Kim Taehyung
just.awesome.luck
Kim Taehyung
I'm Kim Taehyung
the sound came out cold..too cold..it lacked warmth..even empathy probably
whole class became silent..silent from the voice that is resonating back in the room..
the professor asks feeling confused cause usually even the most introverted student would say a sentence or two
anyone
select the seat you want to sit
even the professor didn't feel like pressuring the student more so he just told him to do as his wish
taehyung's eyes started scanning everywhere...every student.every bench.every expression
it looked like he is inspecting some serious crime scene
somehow his wandering Almond eyes landed on the wide doe eyes which were already staring right at him
that very almond eyes which didnt last not less than a second on everyone somehow lasted 5 seconds on that doe eyes
while those 5 seconds were enough for the doe eyed boy to feel intimidated making his heart skip a beat just like that,just a glance for that poor weak heart
there is an empty seat beside jungkook
while taehyung walked straight through it and sat at the last seat which was at the corner of the class
while the class resumed after gwaking at the new boy until he sat down
Jeon Jungkook
he could've sat here na *mumbles*
Jeon Jungkook
*looks back at him once again*
just when he turned to stare at him he found the guy turning towards him
Eye Contact!!!fuckk he was embarrassed and turned his head back instantly while the almond eyes just stating at him with no expression
just like that it's time for math class
favorite class for our doe eyed boy
the professor walked in and started teaching the new chapter that he has started today and jungkook's whole eyes.heart.soul were entirely on the board, on the numbers that were written in that
there is slight shimmer in his eyes.a spark. that's how much he loves that subject those damn numbers
to the contrast Jackson was staring at the board wide eyed mouth wide from all the numbers which seemed like a pool full of numbers swimming and partying for him
the professor wrote a question on the board and started looking at students for answers..a new kinda pattern..it was not easy..it was not difficult either... it just needed some logic, but not everyone is that quick enough to grasp the logic
jungkook is not everyone is he..so he raised his hand just after 5 minutes..while the professor looked impressed still he looked at other students for some response
everyone looked like they were trying to solve something while one person sitting at corner was just staring blankly at the book infront of him
he looked careless.calm.unbothered
anyone
the boy in the corner
anyone
what is the answer to this question?
just like that the class went on silent mode..everyone's curious eyes looking at the new boi trying to guess how he would reply..a certain doe eyed was no exception
Jeon Jungkook
*flicker of amusement*
the tone monotonous.mechanical.robotic
the whole class was amused and were taken back from the answer
the professor went back to the lesson..the lecture continued peacefully for half an hr and now it's time for another question
the question looked complicated..for a normal student the question itself looked impossible
everyone started scribbling in their notes jungkook was no different
usually he would get the answer by now
the professor waits for another minute
anyone
looks like no one got the answer
anyone
it's a tough one even for me
before he could tell the answer he looked at the guy who said an answer before and just like before
the boy was still staring blankly at the book infront of him
the indifference..made the professor irritated
anyone
hey boy from last question
anyone
do you know the answer ?
the professor just wanted to test the water and didn't actually expected an yes for the answer
anyone
why don't you write in on the board (still not believing)
he moved as if all the weight of stares didn't bother him
even the way he walked screamed cold.unbotherness
he went towards the board took the marker and started writing
robotic.mechanical.predicted
his hands moved with precised control
and his handwriting oh gwad that's one hell of a literature
he wrote every step as if his brain has already functioned and prescribed everything even before he came forward
and after a whole ass 5 minutes of aww from everyone
he wrote the answer and finally looked at his professor
anyone
everyone clap for him!
clapping sounds were heard all across the room
while standing infront of the class without his own acknowledgment his eyes landed on a certain doe eyed boy
the boys eyes looked at him with amusement though his expression was blank his eyes gave away his thoughts while his fits were clenching on the desk
the almond shaped finally removed his gaze and went and sat on his seat drifting into his own head
everyone started moving to the canteen
whispers were all jungkook could hear
"looks like jungkook finally got a rival to compete"
those..those are the words that he was afraid to hear
Jackson Wang
you don't know how hungry I am right now
Jackson Wang
*drags jk to canteen*
Jeon Jungkook
*gets dragged*
they took their food and sat at their usual place only two of em
Jeon Jungkook
*frown not leaving his face*
Jackson Wang
Okay! now it's concerning
Jackson Wang
what happened?
Jeon Jungkook
that guy didn't even get to complete his first day of school
Jeon Jungkook
and I already feel threatened by him
Jeon Jungkook
*slams his fist to the table*
just when the words left his mouth which were quite loud just like his emotions right now...he looked around to find the main guy of the tea hoping he didn't heaar him
only to find him seating just behind them
jungkook opened his mouth wide looking at the guy's back profile..
and cuz of his awesome luck
Kim Taehyung
hmm? *tilts his head*
brush.warmth.eyes
suddenly everything around them seemed quite
foot steps, whispers, munchings, music,everything...nothing seemed to reach his ears
almond eyed tilted his torso just a bit..just a LIL bit..enough for him to keep his right arm on his seat to get a proper view of whatever that is behind him
it was a normal..a pretty casual moment but why...WHY does it have to look that cool when he did it.
the unbotherness.collected.calmness did things to the doe eyed boy who was still too stunned to speak
as their seats were pretty much attached to eachother jungkook's hands who were already on the back side of the seat when he was inspecting the canteen caught a brush.a touch.a moment
A smooth brush of a certain someone who moved back
the touch.the bare touch..it was warm as he rolled his sleeves up not quite matching the personality..
the sudden warmness erupted goosebumps on the doe eyed boy's arms
his first instinct was to remove the hand..but it didn't..his arm didn't move..he couldn't move..
the time slowed around them..
Kim Taehyung
*tilts his head*
gwad...he has no business looking so cute while still maintaining that cold ass look
Jeon Jungkook
*eyes too wide*
and suddenly jungkook's brain was short circuited..he couldn't..his brain couldn't process his next moment
pulling his last string of nerve he slowly nods his head as no.nothing
Jeon Jungkook
*nods as no*
Kim Taehyung
*returns to his usual position*
that moment was fast unlike the way he turned before
or maybe it's same it's just the way jungkook interpreted
Jeon Jungkook
*turn front too*
Jackson Wang
*controlling his laughter*
Jeon Jungkook
Don't.whatever you were about to say.don't
jungkook's heart was still trying to pace its speed because of the moment a min back
the guy didn't say anything..didn't even look rude..didn't even look sad...but that's the whole point he looked deprived of all kinds of human emotions..those eyes looked dead.unalive.unbothered
but those eyes..those unmatched monolids and double lids..
no..he didn't mean to observe the difference...it's just the boy came too close that he couldn't help but notice
those mismatched eyes got him soo intimated without even an word spoken
and that's what scared him the most..the intimidation..he was supposed to be untouchable.admirable.best of the best
The reason of it is either cause of his threat to the rank
everyone started moving to their respective classes
everyone busy doing their own things
jungkook with his mind full on focused for the exams
taehyung with his usually uninterested blank face observing the class
jungkook went home late..as he was busy studying in his school library
when he went home he saw his mother and brother in the living room watching some random movie he bets they found on the Netflix home page
without saying any word of acknowledgement he went and sat on the other sofa
trying to remove his mind of a certain threat that entered their school
his mother and brother looked at him with some understanding stares and continued watching the movie
no words exchanged between him and his family
