My heartbeat abruptly stopped, coldness took over me as I stiffly stood there watching him getting farther away. Eventually, he became a dot and disappeared into the distance.

The interviewer next to me was saying something but I couldn't even hear him, my mind was fully occupied by this one thought.

He's leaving, Jungkook is leaving me.

Something is wrong. And I am well aware of the fact that I'm that person who upset him, but, what is it? My eyes looked through the crowd and as I could not spot any known figure I felt nervous.

I took big unsteady steps without giving it a second thought, leaving everything behind, desperately wanting to catch up with Jungkook and ask him the reason behind that heartbreaking attitude of his.

'Is it because I didn't choose him?' That single thought crossed my mind while increasing my steps but I quickly shrugged it off thinking that that reason was too immature.

I entered the hall.

It was like a precious piece of art.

Soft pastel pink colored blanket of roses wrapped around the high glass-ceiling walls, numbers of sparking golden pieces of crystals was hanging from the ceiling lighting up the entire hall. The glossy rose-gold tiles on the floor were clearly reflecting the figure of every person standing on it like a still pond.

The sound of glasses mildly bumping against each other indicating a formal toast was echoing throughout the hall and the strong smell of expensive champagne filled my nostrils.

But I was blind to all those intricate delicate interior. While slightly lifting my gown up I began scanning through the endless crowd of people, determined to spot that one face I was wishing to confront.

Nervousness washed over me once my eyes caught the sight of that familiar Cherry hair but keeping that feeling aside, without wasting any time I quickly pushed through the crowd and made my way towards Jungkook.

As I got closer I saw him carelessly leaning against the bar's counter with a glass of golden liquor sparkling in his hand, talking and occasionally nodding his head to a blonde girl, though I don't know her I've got to admit that she's damn attractive. That blood-red backless dress wrapped around her body was showing the right curves and that bold red full lips only added perfection to the look.

I paused in the middle while looking at the polite Jungkook from a distance.

He looks okay.

But then again what happened outside? Well, only one way to find out. Once again I continued with my steps until I stood right behind the displayed back of the blonde girl looking at Jungkook.

Jungkook's dark orbs unintentionally fell on me while his eyes were wandering around while conversing with the girl, his smiling face just now turned into an ice-cold, arrogant glare almost at an instant before he ripped his eyes off me and looked at the girl in front with all his attention.

It made me feel cold and make shivers run down my spine.

He just turned a blind eye towards me like that.

Surprisingly the blonde-headed girl had sharp eyes and didn't miss to notice Jungkook shifting his eyes behind her and also that sudden change of behavior of his. She immediately turned around with a defined frown on her face but that frown slowly disappeared when she looked at me.

We made eye contact for about a second or two before I walked past her and firmly stood in front of Jungkook looking straight into his eyes.

''Jungkook, we need to talk.'' I calmly stated looking up at him.

He just looked at me then shifted his gaze over me with his lips pressed against each other forming a thin line, totally ignoring my existence.

''So, Ariana, do you perhaps want to get another drink?" He asked the girl in the red dress with his deep voice. I assume that the girl nodded because Jungkook nodded as well before getting ready to walk past me.

Before he could completely take one step I tightly grasped his hand making him flinch and look at me in surprise.

''I said we need to talk.'' I stated through gritted teeth before starting to speed-walk towards the hallway, pulling Jungkook with me whether he liked it or not.

To my surprise, Jungkook didn't disagree or pull his hand out of my grip and just silently followed me cause if he did do anything I'd surely be lying dead on the floor by now. Once I found myself in a silent lighted hallway I let go of Jungkook and gazed at him intensely. But his face didn't even change a bit. I frowned looking at him.

Jungkook stuffed his hands in his pocket, shifting his weight from one leg to another he sighed out of pure frustration before looking at me, annoyed.

''Look if you want to just waste my time lik-"

''What's wrong with you?" I asked cutting him making him flash a look of disbelief.

''What do you mean by what's wrong with me?" He asked with his emotionless eyes piercing through my soul.

''Why are you so out of character? You've been acting so weirdly towards me.'' I said with a heavy heart and tightly clenched my fist.

''Out of character you say, if you did know my character Y/n, then that wouldn't have happened in the Red Carpet.'' He said chuckling in a mocking manner while clenching his jaw. Even if it was for a second he did flash a disappointed look before it was replaced by a dark glare.

The tension and thickness of the air were suffocating, my heart was thumping against my chest and Jungkook's uninterested look wasn't helping it at all.

So I guess I wasn't wrong after all.

''You're angry because I didn't choose you.'' I exclaimed in disbelief through squinted eyes.

The moment I finished my sentence he shot his head up and looked straight into my eyes before taking one furious step forward which automatically make me take one hesitant step backward. His jaw tightened all the more causing his sharp jawline to be more defined.

I was feeling scared.

''Y/n, I'm not angry at all, I'm deeply hurt and disappointed instead. You know why? Huh? Because you were blind, you were blind to see who was there for you during your ups and downs, you were blind to realize who cared for you more, you were blind to understand who was ready to give up the world for you. You never noticed that person who was always there for you which is the only reason why today your answer to that question was I can't choose or else you wouldn't even have to think about your answer, your heart would answer it on its own.'' With every second his voice was raising.

At last, a smile formed on his lips but it didn't look like a happy one, it rather looked like a bitter one.

''Who am I even trying to make realize?" He shook his head, poking the inside of his cheek with his tongue, and stepped back before walking away.

The sound of the heels of his shoe clicking on the marbled floor and my heavy breathing were the only sounds echoing throughout the hall.

Eventually, that sound also disappeared.

All of a sudden the weight of sadness came breaking down at me making me flinch out of pain. And that's when I came to realize that my back was pressed against the cold wall, my eyes trailed down towards my hands and they were continuously shaking.

I sat down with my back sliding against the hard wall, inhaling sharply and tightly closing my eyes feeling every single beat my aching heat was making.

Everything's wrong.

I slowly looked up.

Blank.

The ceiling was blank, nothing but white evenly spreading everywhere just like my tired mind. I sighed, intertwining my hands and placing them on my thighs I slowly closed my eyes taking in the awful silence engulfing me.

''You were blind to understand who was ready to give up the world for you.'' Jungkook's words stabbed me like a sharp piece of unevenly broken glass.

What do you want to say Jeon Jungkook? I don't want to misunderstand your words. I'm scared I might make the wrong meaning out of your words, that's why I don't want to jump to conclusions already.

But then again, I can't just ignore your words, is it what it sounds like or does it have any other meaning to it. I want to cry because I can't make out the meaning of such simple words and it's making my mind into a mess.

I placed my hand on my chest. But before I could proceed to think more I felt a presence in front of me.

I opened my eyes to see a pair of coffee trousers. As I looked up my eyes met with a familiar pair of ebony eyes.

''Minhyun.''
