Fear.
"You don't remember me?"
Confusion.
"But you remember who you are...?"
Anger.
"Did Yeomra do this to you?"
Jungkook's questions empowered his whole mind, consumed by the need to piece together the puzzle when Yuna closed her eyes and firmly held the bottle with both hands.
Her actions spoke volumes; she wasn't merely feigning ignorance after shattering the champagne bottle. Pretending seemed implausible given the circumstances. Jungkook observed Yuna's genuine fear and protectiveness, which offered partial clarity to his query.
Yuna's hands shook as the migraine persisted, blurring her vision with dark spots. The headache weakened her legs, but she battled the discomfort by closing her eyes and taking deep breaths.

"But you remember who you are?"
Yuna's eyes widened. The moment Jungkook held the shards, the broken glass burned into blue flames.
A gasp and a yelp caused her to release her grip on the blazing bottle. Jungkook quickly grabbed her wrist to make her look up, startling her with the sudden contact.
"Did Yeomra do this to you?"
Yuna's eyes watered at his tight grip on her. She shook her head and mumbled an uncertain response.
