Day 1 Part 1 - "They're a pair?!"

Lifting my heavy eyelids, I blinked repeatedly and rubbed my eyes, yawning and stretching on my bed. My whole body was stiff as if I had worked out all day yesterday and I had to crack my bones to at least ease the throbbing sensations.

I groaned and then froze when I heard my own voice. It sounded an octave lower than normal.

My voice must have gotten ruined after I sobbed too much...

I dismissed it and rolled out of bed to relieve myself.

Still dazed from just waking up and crying so much yesterday, I shuffled to the bathroom while scratching my nape.

It somehow felt weird.

I don't remember cutting my hair...?

Something is weird...

Confusion crossed my face as I kept walking and stood before the toilet.

A heavy sensation consumed my body when I finally got wide awake. I got taller and bulkier and my chest area was lighter than ever.

Swallowing hard, I slowly strode towards my mirror inside the bathroom and lifted my head up to look at my reflection that I was dreading to see each passing second.

My voice got stuck in my throat as my eyes held Jungkook's eyes staring right back at me.

My heart started pounding and my breathing became irregular as I stumbled backwards in sheer shock and disbelief.

"H-H-Ho-How can t-t-this..."

My head throbbed as I refused to look away from the mirror, refused to believe such an impossible happening.

We already broke the curse, already gave away the earrings and we had nothing to do with each other now, so why?

Why is this happening all over again?!

I shook my head, disheveling my hair with my shaky hands, and panted violently, leaning against the wall to support myself.

This can't be happening...

I don't want this shit!

Why am I in his body again?!

I quickly stepped forward to place my hands on the sink, to inspect myself on the mirror again, to search for anything that triggered this.

My eyes were puffy as if he cried all night yesterday. I felt exhausted even though I just woke up. I tried to keep looking at the mirror but...

No matter how much I tried to ignore the heavy sensation around my lower part, I couldn't take it any longer. I hoped that Jungkook would forgive me for this since this was a matter of life and death.

With a deep breath, I positioned myself before the toilet, and shut my eyes tight before pulling down my pants and relieving myself as fast as I could. It wasn't new to me, but it wasn't something I was comfortable doing.

Especially after yesterday, being in his body was rather unbearable.

It was hard to breath.

After washing up, I walked into his bedroom to change. Another unpleasant task that nauseated me.

Finishing my preparations for going out, I put on a bucket hat and a mask before leaving his apartment at dawn and practically running to my own place.

As soon as I reached my door, I banged on it, unable to stand another second in his body.

The door creaked open, revealing my face, bare, shocked, and foreign.

"Jungkook," I whispered under my breath, standing outside my own house. "Why are you in my body again?!"

💫💫💫

Sitting inside my own apartment never felt so nerve wracking.

Facing him was the last thing I wanted after what happened yesterday.

"So," my voice sounded from elsewhere, from the girl before me, making me lift my head up, cringing. "Let's go over everything. We got rid of the earrings, we broke the curse accordingly, and we don't have anything that could be the cause of this."

I nodded.

His eyes suddenly widened before trailing down to my chest.

I unconsciously covered my chest area due to reflex and frowned at him. "Where do you think you're looking at?!"

"My chest, obviously," he sighed, causing my cheeks to flush in embarrassment.

"Well, excuse me. The reality of being switched with the likes of you hasn't sunken into my brain yet," I scoffed and grabbed the swan pendant of my necklace out of nervousness.

After playing with it for a while, I suddenly realized what I was doing and stopped to look at the item in my hand.

Jungkook was silently staring at it since he realized something before I did.

"This necklace," I whispered in surprise. "You have the same one yourself?"

I examined the item, bringing it closer to my eyes. The swan was facing the other side from the one I had.

"They're a pair?!" I gasped before gawking at him.

"So what?" He held the one he was wearing as well, glancing at it dismissively. "These aren't magical items. They're just normal couple necklaces."

C-

"Couple necklaces?!" I scowled.

He licked his lips before stuttering, "I didn't buy them with that intention. They just looked pretty and I just bought them on a whim."

We stared at each other in silence for a moment, but it felt awkward since I was practically staring at myself.

"Whatever," I mumbled and leaned back on the couch. "If it's not the necklaces, then what?"

"I don't know," he sighed.

"Maybe because of our fight," we both said at the same time and looked at each other with round eyes.

"You think so, too?"

I nodded slowly. "Let's just make up and never see each other again. How's that?"

He pursed his lips before muttering, "Okay. Let's end this fast."

I was pleased that he was thinking the same way as I did, but I was also hurt. Why was our relationship so complicated...?

"Well then," I whispered before holding his jaw and bringing our faces closer to end this misfortune quickly. I couldn't go through another disastrous experience, just the mere thought of it was making my hairs stand.

Heeding no attention to the furious thumping of my heart, I swiftly enveloped his lips with mine and kissed him fervently with the same intensity as he did, hoping that it mended our bond. Swallowing my tears that were welling up, I added more force into the kiss, making him grip my shoulders.

Breaking the kiss after a while, we both pulled back slowly with our eyes closed.

When I opened them, my breath hitched as I stared at him in horror.

"No," I whimpered. "We didn't switch back."

"H-How can this," he stammered, his eyes shaking.

My phone suddenly rang, making the both of us jolt in shock.

I took it out to see the caller id.

My love ❤️ is calling...
