The day the young woman confessed her feelings to Jungkook, we go back a few days before that moment...
Like any other day, the young woman woke up early in the morning. The reason she always got up at that time was to prepare breakfast for Jungkook.
"Huh...? Where did he go?"
Jungkook, who had just graduated from university, was always busy preparing to find a job, so when the young woman woke up, he was always fast asleep by her side.
However, that morning, Jungkook wasn't there.
She got out of bed and looked for him all over the house, but she couldn't find him anywhere.
"Where did he go...?"
He wasn't the type of person to go out so early in the morning... Could something have happened?
With a restless heart, she tried to find his phone to call him, but she couldn't find it.
"Where is my phone right now?"
Sometimes there are days when things don't go well, and those days are considered unlucky days.
It seems today is one of those days.
So, with a heart full of anxiety, she had to wait for Jungkook. Meanwhile, time passed relentlessly, ignoring her growing worry.
One, two hours passed...
"...When did I fall asleep...?"
When he glanced quickly at his watch, five hours had already passed.
Jungkook had not yet returned home.
"I can't take it anymore. I have to go out and find him."
She put on a coat and grabbed her house keys to leave. Just as she was about to go, she heard the sound of the gate's password.
Finally, the door opened, and Jungkook, at last, returned.
She ran barefoot towards him and threw herself into his arms.
"Jungkook, where did you go...? I was worried..."
"Hey, my love...?"
With Jungkook's voice slightly trembling, she looked up at his face. He looked exhausted, as if he had been crying, with the expression of someone who had lost a precious person.
"What's wrong...? What happened?"
Instead of giving an answer, Jungkook hugged her tightly.
"A-and... my love..."
Jungkook, burying his face in her shoulder, wept inconsolably, calling her name in a heartbreaking way.
The young woman hugged him without saying a word, offering him comfort. After a long while, Jungkook pulled away, his eyes completely red.
Her gaze, though sad, was full of tenderness.
After Jungkook calmed down a bit, the young woman sat him down on the sofa and carefully asked him:
"Jungkook, can I ask you what happened?"
Looking at Jungkook, her eyes welled up with tears again.
"Ah... I'm sorry, my love."
"No, why are you apologizing?"
"Can I tell you later...? It's a little difficult to talk about this..."
"Okay. Tell me when you're ready. I understand."
...
My love... you don't remember what happened to you, do you?
What should I do, my love...?
