Eternal Love

you shrug it off as you fall in line to order your food, all you could do is stare straightly, it's neither the wall nor someone.

staring at someone doesn't usually mean that you're into that person, it just means that you just zoned out without realizing that you've been staring at someone for too long.

"is that the girl at the prom last 2 days ago?" someone mutters from your back.

you didn't turn around, but instead, you look at them from the corner of your eyes as you pay attention to their words.

"I think so, some people said that she had 2 partners" another one laughs.

yes, you danced with Jin but when you saw Jimin you immediately left him hanging, then after a few hours you came back into the venue with someone else.

"2? but why did I only see one?" he questionably asks.

you blink multiple times as his words begin to repeat in your mind over and over again, you take countless sighs as you listen more to their conversation but...

"Miss, are you alright?" the cashier asks.

you get into your thoughts once again as you focus your eyes straight, you're like a meter away from the cashier, you slowly walk to the cashier and begin to say your order.

-

you're supposed to be eating but you couldn't focus.

what do they mean that they only saw one?

you try to take a bite of the burger you just bought but you ended up swallowing your saliva while staring at your food, you took a sigh.

you don't like wasting food so you continued to eat your food, but then you start to hear whispers from other students.

"I have to admit she's pretty but there's something wrong with her" one states out.

you close your eyes while your head bows down.

you start to wonder why they're talking about you all of a sudden, and them having nasty impressions and bad comments about you.

you're not a professional dancer nor a ballroom dancer, but you guessed that they were judging you based on how you exerted effort in dancing.

you try to ignore their words but suddenly you overhear someone speaking from right behind you.

"Oh look, it's that crazy girl from the prom day," she says in a thundering manner while pointing her index finger at you.

she made sure that you could hear her voice from behind, her voice seems familiar, but you don't want to assume.

tears begin to run down your cheeks and you begin to hold the burger a little tighter, making the insides of it fall to the plate.

you try to close your eyes but tears begin to flow down a lot more.

"See, I told you guys, she's sick!" she bobs her head sideways while mocking you.

you had enough! so you dropped the burger on the plate and immediately stood up and ready to fight with her.

you face her with bravery, but you ended up stopping in your tracks when you realize that it's Dahyun.

"D-day, h-how dare you-" you begin to stutter as tears continue to flow down your face.

the noisy and crowded cafeteria became a lil silent as most of the students there begin to stare at both of you as they begin to surround.

you didn't care about them anymore, you begin to question yourself in your mind, how can she say these things to you and make you feel embarrassed?

"how dare me?" she mimics your voice as she follows it with a response. "How dare you! leaving and ditching me alone! I thought we were friends but you left me!" she yells out.

you sniff your breath as you try to wipe your eyes with a napkin, and you finally stand up for yourself.

"HOW. DARE. YOU" you say separately but it's wide and clear for her to hear.

"YOU WERE THE BAD INFLUENCE ON ME, YOU LEFT ME DRUNK AND NOT CARING WHERE I WAS! YOU BROUGHT ME TO THIS AWFUL SITUATION!" you scream out but the voice cracks are widely obvious.

you hate how you can't control your voice when you scream and cry it out.

"how dare you call me crazy when it was you in the first place!" you added with a scream.

you took a very huge sigh as you could see the countless number of students who are speechless of what you've just said but you didn't care much.

you want to get out of here.

you begin to run away, bumping into Dahyun as you try your best to get away from the huge crowd of people as they watch you leave with their eyes.

-

school ends and you still kept that cold blank facial expression throughout the day, you begin to walk home while your head bows down at the floor.

your mind was filled with thoughts, your phone keeps notifying you with so much messages but you do not bother to even open it and check the messages.

"Jimin, where are you?" you question to yourself.

you begin to miss him once again as you try to walk a bit faster since the sun begins to set quicker than usual, you miss his touch, his hug, his hand.

his everything.
