Chapter 6

Our Love Story

Jimin's POV

I left Jungkook's house with a heavy heart. I was so close to Seo Jin, yet so far away from her. I slowly walked back home? I looked around me. This was where we would always walk together, when I sent her home. I felt like an idiot, for letting her go. But it was for the best. It was for us to focus on our studies. I kept thinking about our past, when I realised I have been walking for so long. I looked around me and realised my legs have brought me to the park. The park we had our first date. The park we had our last date. I took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the bench Seo Jin and I always sit on. But there were two people sitting there already. I was about to turn and leave when I heard the two people talking. I walked closer quietly. Jungkook. It was Jungkook and Seo Jin.

Is Jimin the only guy you see?" I heard Jungkook ask.

Seo Jin answered yes without even thinking. That kind of made me feel a little relieved.

"What about those other guys around you? Are they not good enough?" Jungkook asked.

"Who are the other guys?" Seo Jin asked.

"The other six of us. Hoseok, Yoongi, Taehyung, Namjoon, Seokjin, and I," Jungkook said and turned away.

I took a step back. Does Jungkook like Seo Jin too? I know he likes someone, but he didn't want to tell any of us who that girl is. My vision started becoming blurry. I'm crying because of this? I turned away and stared running. Where am I running to? I don't know. I just wanted to get out of there. If Seo Jin was the girl Jungkook likes, would he confess? Will she accept him? Afterall, he was there for her since a few days ago. They said that you will fall for the person who was there for you at your darkest hours. Jungkook was there for her during her darkest hours. I ran as far as my legs could take me. I was tired. But I wasn't planning to stop. Every hello comes with a goodbye. I know it. But I didn't expect this to hurt this badly. My world started spinning. I stopped running and fell to the ground. And everything was pitch black.

 

 


Seo Jin's POV 

"Seo Jin ah, pick up your phone!" My dad yelled from outside.

"Mian!" I ran out of the bathroom and locked my bedroom door. Then, I picked up my phone.

20 missed calls? I was puzzled. Who could it be? Who could be calling me for 20 times at 9pm. I slide to unlock my phone and went to the call log. It was an unknown number. I don't usually pick up unknown numbers. I just ignored it and went back into the bathroom to dry my hair. And my phone rang again. I walked out and picked up the phone.

"I'm blocking you if you call again," I said.

"Wait! It's me," The speaker on the other line said.

"Kookie?" I asked.

"Ne. I need to tell you something... Geundae, don't faint, don't cry and don't be shocked, arasso?" Jungkook said, sounding even more serious than usual.

"What happened...?" I asked.

"The hospital called me because they couldn't get to you. Jimin's in the hospital," Jungkook said softly.

"Nu... Nugu...?" I held onto the edge of the table just in case I faint.

"Jimin. Park Jimin," Jungkook said.

"Which hospital?" I asked, my voice shaking.

"Go change. I'll meet you outside your house in five minutes," He said and hung up.

I stood there for a while, trying so hard to absorb what I just heard. After a while, I got a grip of myself and went to change. I ran down the stairs, almost falling.

"Where are you going at this hour?" My mum asked.

"My friend is in the hospital. Jungkook and I are going over now," I answered.

My heart ached a little when I referred to Jimin as a friend.

"Ani, stay at home," My mum said.

"I need to go," I insisted.

"Just let her go," My dad said as he came out of his room.

Without waiting a second more, I ran out of the house. Jungkook was already waiting for me outside the gate. I didn't even bother closing the gate properly.

"Kaja," Jungkook said.

We walked to the bus stop and took a bus to the hospital. I kept praying that Jimin is fine. I opened my mouth, wanting to ask Jungkook what happened, but Jungkook was sleeping. He must be tired. We got down after two stops, and ran into the hospital. Jungkook seemed to know where Jimin was.

"Go in, he's alone," Jungkook said.

"I... I can't..." I said and looked down.

Jungkook tilted my chin up, and said, "He needs you now."

Why did I sense pain in Jungkook's voice when he said that Jimin needs me. I nodded. Jungkook opened the door for me and told me to go in. I took a step in, and another step, and another. I was getting closer to Jimin with each step I take. My heart was thumping harder and harder. I stood by his bedside and looked at him. He was asleep. I sat down on the chair next to his bed, and took his hands in mine.

"Pabo... If you can't take care of yourself then why did you leave...? What did you do that got you like that? Aren't you going to wake up?" I cried.

"I'm trying to sleep," Jimin mumbled.

I let go of his hands immediately and wiped away the tears.

"What happened to you?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Where's Jungkook?" Jimin asked.

"Outside," I answered.

"The other boys came just now," Jimin said.

I nodded my head.

"And they are all I need. Leave now," Jimin said and turned away.

"Ne...?" I felt my heart breaking again. I clenched my fists and it was shaking.

"Leave now, I don't want to see you," Jimin said, still facing away from me.

"Do you want me to leave so badly...?" I asked, tears falling from my eyes.

"Ne, I want you to leave now," Jimin answered.

I turned away and walked out of the room. Jungkook was seated on one of the chairs outside Jimin's room.

"How is he?" Jungkook asked, smiling at me.

"He's fine," I answered.

"Yah, Seo Jin ah, why are you crying?" Jungkook stopped smiling.

I shook my head and wiped away the tears.

"Let's go. I need to go home," I said, avoiding Jungkook's question.

He nodded and stood up. On the way back, the only noise on the street was Jungkook's talking. I didn't even listen. I just wanted to go home and sleep.

 

 

Jimin's POV

When I opened my eyes, I saw my parents.

"Abeoji," I called my dad.

"Yah, why did you pass out on the road?" My dad asked.

I shrugged my shoulders.

"The doctor said you can be discharged tomorrow morning," My mum said.

I nodded my head.

"You can go home," I told them.

"Arasso. But stop acting like you just lost a lover," My dad joked.

I looked around for my phone, and found it on the chair next to me. I dialed Jungkook's number and told him I was in the hospital. I gave him the details too. A few hours later, Hoseok, Yoongi, Namjoon, Seokjin and Taehyung barged into the room. I couldn't help but smile. I have been neglecting them lately that I didn't even notice that Namjoon dyed his hair pink, that Yoongi dyed his hair mint, that Taehyung cut his hair, that Hoseok dyed his hair black and that Seokjin got a new jacket.

"Where's your girlfriend?" Taehyung asked.

Namjoon elbowed him, signaling for him to shut up.

"We broke up," I said.

"Gwaenchana, you still have us," Seokjin smiled at me.

"Where's Jungkook?" Yoongi asked.

"He's coming later," I told him.

"Wae?" Yoongi asked.

"He has dance class now," I said.

That was when I realised that these 6 boys, Seokjin, Yoongi, Hoseok, Namjoon, Taehyung, and Jungkook, have always been there for me. They are always behind me, pushing me forward. They are always picking me up when I fall. Always. And every time I need them, they would come immediately. I took a quick glance at all of them and felt bad for neglecting them.

"Yah, let's spend more time together this holiday," I said.

"Should we audition?" Hoseok suddenly asked.

"For Bighit?" Namjoon asked.

Hoseok nodded his head.

"Yah, why not, all of us go together? Including Jungkook!" Taehyung suggested.

I smiled at them. It was always my dream to be a singer, to be able to perform on stage, to hear my fans chant my name and sing along with me. It would be good if I could fulfill this dream. But it would be even better, if we could do it together.

Hours after the boys left, I dozed off. I woke up a while later, and opened my eyes. I saw the door open. I saw Seo Jin walk in. I hurriedly closed my eyes. She stood by my bedside, then sat down and took my hands in hers.

"Pabo... If you can't take care of yourself then why did you leave...? What did you do that got you like that? Aren't you going to wake up?" Seo Jin cried.

My heart broke. The last thing I want is for her to cry over me.

"I'm trying to sleep," I mumbled.

I felt Seo Jin's hands released. I slowly opened my eyes. She's beautiful even when she cries.

"What happened to you?" She asked.

I ignored her and asked where Jungkook was.

"Outside," She replied.

"The other boys came just now," I told her.

I was planning to get her to leave. I don't want to see her crying. Not when I am the cause of her warm tears. When you really love someone, and you cry over them, the tears are warm. That was what I was told. I never believed it until I met Seo Jin.

Seo Jin nodded her head.

"And they are all I need. Leave now," Jimin lied and turned away.

I turned away because I felt tears coming out of my eyes. What am I doing? Why am I hurting her again when I said I wouldn't?

"Ne...?" Her voice was cracking. She must be holding back tears again. Did she clench her fist again? Was her fists shaking? It always happens when she holds back tears badly.

"Leave now, I don't want to see you," I said.

The harsher, the better.

"Do you want me to leave so badly...?" She asked. Tears must be falling from her eyes by now.

"Uljima, you're a strong girl, Seo Jin ah." I said silently in me.

"Ne, I want you to leave now," I said. My heart broke. I want her to stay.

She didn't say anything else. She just left the room.

"Pabo, when I say leave, I actually meant stay," I sighed.

I took my phone and texted Jungkook:

Never ever tell Seo Jin to leave because she will really leave. Make her smile, treat her right. If you want to win her heart, you can try now.

Awhile later, Jungkook replied:

You don't love her anymore?

I told him:

I still love her. But, she needs someone better. Someone who doesn't make her cry, someone who doesn't break promises.

After that, I put my phone away. I fell asleep after a while. That night, I dreamt of Seo Jin. But when I woke upp, I forgot everything.

 

 

 

Jungkook's POV

That night after sending Seo Jin home, I called Seokjin.

"Jimin will be discharged tomorrow morning. Do you guys want to come to my house and practice? Or try to sing or dance?" I asked.

"Including Jimin? Is he fully healed?" Seokjin asked.

"Ne, he should be fine," I said.

"Okay, let's go pick Jimin then go to your house," Seokjin said.

"We have to help me stand up again. Just like always," I told Seokjin.

I wasn't saying that because I wanted Seo Jin. I Was saying that because I genuinely want to help Jimin. He can't go on like that forever. There must be a stop to this heartbreak. And I rather it be now, so that he can focus on the audition.

"Let's help him stand up, then focus on the audition. Get in as a group, practice as a group, debut as a group," Seokjin said.

I could hear his smile through the line. That made me smile too.

 

 

 

Seo Jin's POV 

I went into my room and closed the door. Just as I was about to cry, someone knocked on the door. I sat up straight and said, "Come in."

My dad looked in and asked if he could come in. I nodded my head.

"Gwaenchana?" He closed the door and sat down next to me on the bed.

I nodded my head and faked a smile.

"You can hide it from anyone, but don't hide it from Jungkook and I," My dad put his arms around me, like how he used to do when I was a little girl.

"What did Jungkook tell you?" I sighed.

"What happened between you and Jimin?" My dad asked.

"Aren't you going to scold me first?" I asked.

"Ani, I won't. I used to be a teenager too," He said.

"Does mum know?" I asked.

"She doesn't," My dad replied.

I felt a little more relieved now.

"Do you want to talk about it?" My dad asked.

I shook my head and said, "I just want to rest for tonight. It's been a really tiring week for me."

My dad nodded his head and stood up. Before he left the room, he pulled me into a hug. It was the warmest hug a man ever gave me.

"Gomawo," I whispered in his ears and watched him leave my room.

I went to wash up and lied down on bed again. But I couldn't sleep. So I decided to try writing songs. I took a piece of paper and started scribbling down lyrics that rhyme. It was my first try. I started to feel tired. So I went to bed and closed my eyes. After a while, I fell asleep.
