"Were finally free." I said smiling brighter than ever.

I looked at Kook and he was smiling just as bright as me. We were finally free, free to do whatever we wanted. As long its legal.

The only thing I got out of living there was meeting Jungkook. We had always been there for each other, and if we're being honest I've always had a crush on him.

I looked towards Jungkook he was looking at every building in astonishment. We've never been to the city before, we were never allowed. I couldn't help but stare at Jungkook every now and then, he's the cutest person I have ever seen, or met.

I was pulled back to reality when I heard a voice yell, "There they are!"

I turned around and without thinking I grabbed Jungkook's hand and sprinted as fast as I could, trying to get away from them. I threw his black hoodie over his head and put mine on my head as well. I pushed through everybody saying, "Excuse me" as I rushed through the crowd of people.

We had to take a break, we were both exhausted.

We ended up blending into crowd, they couldn't find us anymore.

Jungkook and I had been living on the streets for the past few days, and its been absolute hell. Today we found a hotel cheap enough we can afford, and we were planning on staying there for a couple nights before we could just find some sort of job. We only had one problem. Food. We were running out and we didn't have enough money to afford some for the both of us.

I used the last of our food money, and bought Jungkook a Hweori Gamja (Its basically like this spiral potato thing on a stick tOrnaDo potAto fr look up tornado potato🥵🥵 -potato-nim2)

"Hey, Hyung wheres your food?" Jungkook said looking at me worried.

I ruffled his hair and smiled, "Don't worry Kook, I already ate!"

He looked at me and smiled, "Are you sure? This is really good!" Jungkook said offering his food to me.

I almost took it because I haven't eaten since we left the orphanage.. But I have to stay strong.. For Kook.

I shook my head, "No, really I'm okay Kook!"

Jungkook finished his last bite and looked at me worried again, "Tae I think we should find somewhere to rest."

I nodded my head again. I started to feel a little woozy and I felt my knees start to wobble, and my vision started going blurry, but I have to keep going. I can't stop now. It was already late at night so there weren't as many people in the streets as there are in the day. Jungkook was looking at the street signs, trying to find where the hotel we found was.

"Hyung, if we cut here I think we'll get there faster." Jungkook said gripping onto my sleeve, I didn't even realise I was shaking.

We walked slowly into the alleyway, Jungkook still pulling my sleeve.

Then I felt myself collapse, I feel.. so weak..

I heard someone screaming my name but.. who was it?

"Taehyu-!"

My vision went blank.
