It's near lunch time already when Chaeyoung woke up the next day. Or did she even sleep? She can't rember when she did and now her head is pounding.
Jisoo's words last night kept lingering in her mind.
She kept thinking. What's more painful? Leaving the one who care for you? Or leaving knowing that he won't even care? Thinking of both just add up to the terrible headache she's feeling right now and a heavy heart at top of that. Whatever is more painful, it's still pain. She'll still be hurt no matter what. But of course, she would rather choose the latter. That's better--- for everyone.
It's her fault. She should be the only one hurting. If Jungkook really falls for her in which she doubt, he doesn't deserve to be hurt. She should have stayed in her lane. Admire Jungkook from a far. She shouldn't let herself pursue him without thinking of the future. The consequences. Especially his feelings.
And now, she had one thing to do. Stop and leave him peacefully. When he's still not falling for her. But of course he'll never. And while she still can. But, can she?
Is she too selfish? For only thinking about her own happiness? Is it wrong?
She just wanted to be happy and be with someone she really loves. Just even before she dies. Cause she's not sure when it is. It can happen anytime. Or soon. She don't want to waste all her remaining time in the world staying still. She don't want any regrets. If Jungkook really never falls for her, atleast she tried.
And that's a very wrong move.

"Good morning!" Jisoo greeted her with full smile. She was already in the dining area eating brunch.
"Good morning Unnie. Did you sleep well?" she asked weakly.
"Yes. Actually, I just woke up too. What about you? Did you even sleep?"
"No? Your snores are too loud." she joked and the older just pout and they ended up laughing about it.
After eating, Chaeyoung went straight to the living room and lie on one of the couch. Her headache is getting worse.
She tried all her might to fight the pain and close her eyes praying for it to stop. She already drank medicine for it and hope it'll work.
--
"Are you sure you're fine?" Jisoo asked for the nth time and sigh. "We can do this tomorrow."
"I'm fine." she smiled at her cousin. A sad one. "Let's go today. Cause I'm not sure if I can still do this tomorrow."
"Chaeyoung!" shock and fear is written all over Jisoo's face. "Don't you ever say that!"
Chaeyoung let out soft chuckles. "I'm just joking Unnie."
"Jokes are supposed to be funny Park Chaeyoung!"
Chaeyoung looks at her cousin apologetically and smile at her. "Sorry."
Jisoo let out a loud sigh. Her heart is in so much pain right now. Tears wanted to escape from her eyes but she won't let others see those. Not anyone, especially Chaeyoung.
"Let's go." the older just ordered Chaeyoung and went outside first.
--
Chaeyoung peek at the Kitchen to look for her Mom. She smiled when she found her there. She went to her and hugged her.
"Mom, I'll just go out for a bit. I'll be back soon."
Mrs. Park can't explain what she's feeling right now. She feels like she have to stop her from going but just nod nonetheless. She hugged her daugther tighter.
"I'll be waiting for you, Chae. Just promise me too comeback."
"Of course Mom. Promise, I'll be back."
--
"Just choose everything you want. My treat." Jisoo proudly told her cousin.
"Are you sure?" Chaeyoung's eyebrows meet and look at her suspiciously.
"Of course!"
They went shopping and food trips, like they always do when they are together.
They didn't notice the time that already passed. Chaeyoung felt really really tired. She can feel her head pounding again and it's getting worse every second. Jisoo felt a squeeze on her arm and she suddenly stops talking and look at Chaeyoung.
"Hey is there something wrong? Do you want to go home now?"
Chaeyoung nod a little and put a small smile. "I just need to go the comfort room"
Jisoo nodded her head and help her to reach the comfort room. "Do you have your meds with you?"
The younger just shakes her head. Fear washed all over Jisoo's face. "We'll go home right away." she smiled at her to hide her emotions.
"Thank you, Unnie."
Jisoo felt a pang in her chest. She tapped her shoulders. "I'll wait for you here."

As Chaeyoung enter one of the restroom cubicles, she immediately locked the door and seat in the toilet. She shut her eyes tightly while enduring the pain she's feeling in her head. She inhaled and exhaled louldly repeatedly. Then she pulled some of her hair and her tears started flowing in her eyes.
Why? Why now?
Her hands are now trembling and the pain does not look like it'll stop anytime soon. She must endure it. She need to go home. They need her.
With that in mind, she gather all the energy left in her and stand. She was about to open the door when everything went black.
--
Jisoo heard weird noise from the cubicle where Chaeyoung is. She knows that she is crying in pain right now. And she can't do anything about it. She wiped the tear that successfull fall from her eyes.
She is now biting her nails in fear and nervousness when she heard a loud noise like something just fall.
Chaeyoung!
"Hey, Chae. Are you okay? Open the door!"
She didn't hear any response even if she already put her ear in the cubicles door. She's in panic right now. "Chaeyoung!" the tears that she always fought not to flow from her eyes are now freely falling like river.
"Please someone, help!" she screamed but turns out soft because of her crying.
Good thing, mall's maintenance attend to them right away.
She's just holding Chaeyoung's hands in their way to the hospital. She keeps shaking her head to shake away all the negative thoughts that crossing her mind. Nothing will happen, right? Oh Lord. Please save her.
