episode 5
Just as we are outside the building, I regret not bringing a jacket with me.
I follow behind him, and he seems to know his way around the building perfectly, avoiding all the vigilance.
Once we are at a distance, he starts running towards the forest.
We run until the darkness of the forest completely surround us, our heavy breathing the only sound that can be heard.
Haru
"We made it, are you okay?"
I nod, although I know he can't see me. The darkness is too dense, so much that it's scary. Maybe it wasn't a very good idea to come here.
taehyung
"It's very dark in here."
taehyung
I speak as I hear him walking further away.
taehyung
Swallowing my fear, I follow him.
After walking for a while, I finally see the light of the campfire with lots of young people sitting around it, chatting happily, and I let out a sigh in relief.
As we get closer to them, a girl comes running towards Haru
They hug each other and the girl looks at me.
She starts pulling him away, and Haru turns his head to give me an apologetic look before leaving.
And that's how the most uncomfortable moment in my life starts. I am standing by myself, in front of a group of strangers.
Although this is a psychiatric, everyone here seems very normal, they smile, laugh, it almost seems like a normal teenage secret meeting. Only that everyone here has their own dark past and secrets.
And then is when I start feeling all eyes on me. I play with my hands nervously, not knowing what to do.
I look around and notice three boys with a black hoodie sitting around the fire, but I'm sure none of them are the one I encountered in the rooftop.
taehyung
<in mind: Why did I even come?>
I have nothing to do here, I don't have any friends, haru is gone and chang-ha is not here. Socializing isn't something I've felt like doing since my parents were gone. This is not a place for me.
I turn around and start walking back from where I came from, trying to remember the way.
I'm so focused on my steps, trying not to trip onto something, that I don't see someone in front of me and end up crashing into a hard chest.
A soft voice asks and I look up.
I stop breathing for a second to take everything in. The boy in front of me is so beautiful that it takes me a while to process it, his dark hair falling onto his forehead, his captivating eyes, his pronounced features, making him stand out from the rest.
taehyung
"Y-yeah, I'm fine."
I try to hide my surprise and he smiles.
???
"You look like you just saw a ghost, am I that ugly?"
taehyung
"No, no, it's just... never mind. I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
???
"It's fine, it was my fault. You're new around here, right? What's your name?"
taehyung
Yes, I am, I'm taehyung
jungkook
"Taehyung... I'm Jungkook."
He offers me his hand and I take it cautiously.
jungkook
" Why are you leaving so soon?"
taehyung
" I'm... a bit tired."
jungkook
" But you can't go."
taehyung
I look up at him, my eyebrows joining in confusion.
jungkook
His lips turn upwards into a smile.
jungkook
"Fun is just about to start."
taehyung
"What do you mean?"
jungkook
"We're going to play a game in just a few minutes..."
jungkook
His smile grows bigger.
taehyung
" Isn't it a bit late to play that? It's pitch black out here."
jungkook
"That's why it's fun. Come on, come with me."
jungkook
"I'm going to introduce you to some people."
