     You

There was the urgency, of course, to dial 911.

Or to dial anyone, really, at this point.


Your mind fog, however, tried to drown you

as your fear began to subside into indifference.



It would be so easy... to just lie back down.


You glanced at your fingertips again,

almost giggling at how small and insignificant the little bruises were in size

for the fact that they were killing you.


Oh, and your soulmate.


Because he wouldn't live on without you.



Whoever that was, poor bloke.

Oh yeah, Jeon Jungkook.



Putting a face to the role, however, changed everything.

Now that your brain put a face to the person you'd kill by dying, it no longer seemed funny.


In fact, it was enough for you to reach over to your phone and try to dial 911.


Huh.

The screen wouldn't turn on.

Figures. You haven't charged it for what... three days now?

Or was it four?

You tried to find the tiny cord that you knew had to be by your nightstand but even when your fingers closed around it and you wriggled it against your phone for a few minutes you couldn't manage to plug it into the port.


Oh god.

Your hands were so numb now.

When you did feel them momentarily, you wished you wouldn't.


Your body hurt so much.

Even your legs now.


And if you're honest with yourself, breathing was no easy task either.

Well, guess somebody has to be the 25% who died from not finding their soulmate in time.



You almost pass out when you hear the quietest, softest shriek of a child from outside,

slipping through your walls.


Right.

Neighbors.
