My Child
Today I"Stop crying and don't worry. I am here for you."
~~~~~
Today I went out of the house again, crying. There was a park nearby, so I went there with my wet face. I sat near the lake and cried myself out. I was sobbing and I think I was ruining the playful and relaxing atmosphere of the park. Some children came to me and asked what was wrong but I said it's alright and they don't have to worry about me. A few minutes into crying, I felt a hand patting and rubbing my back. I thought it was another child disturbing me, so I shoved the hand lightly and said "I told you, it's okay. I'm okay."
"You are not okay." A male voice said. I turned to him and saw Jungkook.
I wiped off my tears as he sat down beside me.
"What are you doing here?"
"I was going to your house to give you this." Then he handed me a bouquet of flowers.
"Thanks. This would be very useful for my funeral." I said. His face had shocked written all over it.
"What're you even saying, Kim Yerim."
"I was joking. But really, everything right now is killing me slowly."
"Why? What happened?"
"It's a family thing you don't have to get involved in."
"Aren't I family to you?"
"Oh please Jungkook. None of those things are going to work right now."
He held up my face and cupped one side with his hand.
"Yerim. Please. Tell me. I want to help you."
I held his hand and lightly detached it from my face.
