Jungkook | ex-friend • Jikook

In a world where eyes are the literal windows to the soul, feelings cannot be hidden. When someone loves, their pupils take the form of vibrant hearts; when indifference prevails, the eyes become blue with a cold sliver in the center. Park Jimin's eyes shine with hearts every time he looks at his best friend, Jeon Jungkook. For Jimin, that friendship was the prelude to something greater, a bond he believed to be reciprocal. However, the group's harmony is shattered with Jennie's arrival. As soon as Jennie enters the scene, the sparkle in Jungkook's eyes changes direction. Enchanted, Jeon's pupils quickly take the form of hearts for the newcomer. But Jennie harbors a secret: behind her charming facade, she is manipulative. With whispered lies and fabricated situations, she makes Jungkook believe that Jimin is the villain of the story. Blinded by his newfound passion, Jungkook begins to rebel against his best friend. Amidst heated arguments and cruel words, Jimin watches his world crumble. The pain of betrayal and contempt reaches its limit. Faced with a public humiliation orchestrated by Jennie and supported by Jungkook, Jimin's eyes undergo the most dreaded transformation: the vibrant red of love fades, giving way to a dark, black line over a shattered heart. With his heart (and his gaze) broken, Jimin decides to leave the group and disappear from everyone's lives, seeking to heal a wound that seems incurable. Away from Jimin, Jennie's mask begins to slip. Jungkook finally realizes he was used as a pawn in a cruel game. Regret hits him like a punch to the gut when he looks in the mirror and sees that his own eyes have lost their shine. Now, Jungkook will begin a desperate race against time to find Jimin.
