episode 3
The forest around the building is a bit scary, and the city lights are very far away.
I take a deep breath, filling my lungs, and then I exhale slowly.
In a cold winter night, I decide to end with my life.
Life has no sense for me anymore, I have no reason to keep living. I know I'm a coward, but I can't go on, I made my decision the first day I woke up knowing that my family was murdered, and I couldn't do anything to save them.
During the time I've been here, I tried to find a new reason to live, but nothing has worked. I tried everything, medication, therapy, but nothing erased the fact that every time I close my eyes I see so much blood.
Oh, and the nightmares I have every night. Don't blame me for not wanting to keep living like this.
I try to stay calm, but my whole body shakes as I climb on the parapet, standing right at the edge of the building.
taehyung
I feel my eyes filling with tears.
taehyung
"I'm sorry mom, dad, I tried, I really tried."
I let out a shaky breath as tears start falling down my cheeks. I just need to let myself fall, and everything will end.
taehyung
I stop breathing when I hear a voice next to me.
？？？
What are you waiting for?
taehyung
I turn my head towards the person, my eyes wide open.
There's a boy leaning his back against the railing, wearing a hoodie that doesn't allow me to see his face.
His voice sounds cold, calculated. His face is completely dark hidden behind his hoodie.
？？？
"Jump, I won't stop you"
taehyung
"I don't want to be stopped."
taehyung
I say, looking back in front of me.
？？？
"Then why are you still here? Hurry up and jump."
taehyung
"Could you leave?"
taehyung
I ask him, angirly
taehyung
"I'd like to have some privacy on the day of my death."
I hear him chuckle slightly and I move my eyes back to him, but he still doesn't move.
？？？
"Imagine I'm not here."
Oh god, this boy is annoying. I hear him laugh under his breath again.
？？？
"You want me to give you a push?"
taehyung
"No, I want you to leave."
He turns his head in my direction, and for a second, I manage to see a pair of fascinating dark eyes staring right back at me and a small smile on his lips.
Is he mocking me? This boy is going to hear me out!
I carefully crouch down and step off the parapet, stepping onto the safe rooftop floor, but when I turn towards him, he's gone.
I look around trying to find him, but he's nowhere to be seen. How did he disappear so fast?
Oh no. I turn around to find the night guard looking at me in disapproval.
guard
"Move back from the edge, now!"
taehyung
"Oh, I was just-"
guard
"You can't be here, it's absolutely prohibited, especially for you."
taehyung
"Oh, I had no idea. I'm sorry, I just needed some fresh air."
guard
"Go back to your room, now."
taehyung
I nodded and walked back to my room
I was lucky the guard was in a good mood, otherwise he could've reported me to the principal, and I'd be in huge trouble. I don't want to be transferred
to the second floor
taehyung
As I enter back into my room, I remember the boy on the rooftop.
taehyung
"He didn't even try to stop me, he incited me to jump!"
taehyung
"My plan failed". I let out a frustrated sigh as I drop myself on the bed.
Those dark eyes come back to my mind, and a mixture of rage and curiosity invade me.
