This Love We Have - jikook ff - Chapter 40: Chapter 40

Jungkook's POV
"Don't worry about her. She won't mind, I promise. She knows I always treat you like my own son." She smiled at me. My eyes then fell to Jimin's dad. And, I almost choked in my own saliva by his intense stares.
"Jungkook, are you okay?" She said, making me come back to my senses. I looked at her and then looked down again. I still feel so awkward and shy, especially that I know his dad is still mad at me.
"Yes, Mrs. Park." I can never call her mom again. I don't deserve it because I still can't forgive myself for hurting Jimin that almost drove him to commit suicide.
"Aishh. I told you to call me 'Mom'." She held my face. A tear escaped my eyes. I can't still process that his mom is still the same towards me. Hee Yeon then said that she'll go outside for awhile. Jimin's brother left as well with Jin and Min Joon. Now it's just the four of us.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Park. I just feel like I don't deserve to call you 'Mom' anymore, for hurting Jimin. I screwed up big time. He almost committed suicide because of me. With knowing that, I became more mad at myself. I don't deserve your kindness. I'm sorry for everything. Mr. Park, I'm really sorry. I know what I did is not worth of your forgiveness. I understand if you feel so mad at me right now. I'm really sorry. I'm really the worst for not believing your own son. I let the anger consume me. I let that lie ruined what we have. And as a result, I hurt your son. If I could just turn back time, I will change everything. But, I know it's now too late. I'm sorry. I'm really really sorry." At this very moment, I burst into tears. My loud cry filled the room. Mrs. Park hugged me again so I could calm but it didn't help me. There are so much emotions going on right now. I feel like I have to let this all out. I feel like I have to tell them that I regretted everything so much. I feel like I have to pay the consequences of the bad things I did to their son. Mr. Park didn't say anything and just left the room.
"Jungkook, stop crying. It's okay. Don't mind Dad, okay? He was just a little caught up in the moment. We already forgave you. The important thing right now is you saved Jimin. Though he's not in good state, I'm really thankful you brought him back to us." I kept on crying and crying while she's rubbing my back.
"I know you still care so much for our son so I'm gonna leave you here with him." She kissed my cheeks and caressed it a little then also left. I still can't raise my head. I heard the door opens and closes again. It's now just Jimin and I. I took some time to control my sobs. I'm still in deep emotions. When I feel like I can manage my sobs, I slowly raised my head while my eyes sees Jimin again who's lying on the hospital bed. I slowly grabbed the wheel and made my way to his side. Once I'm on his side, I burst in tears. My heart can't take seeing him so weak up close. His beautiful face that I love so much is now replaced by a pale face. His body became thinner. His arms and fingers are pale, too. I can clearly hear that he has difficulty in breathing. The beep sound from his vital signs monitor is deafening. I slowly moved my hands to his as mine is shaking so much. As soon as I held his hand, I quickly felt the coldness coming from his skin. My mouth started to shiver as tears wanted to explode again but I tried to stop it. My heart is aching at the same time.
"L-Love." I said and then held his face. I can't take this anymore so I just buried my face on our hands.
"I'm sorry, Jimin for not finding you sooner. Y-You shouldn't have been in this situation if I did. Please wake up. D-Don't leave me, please. I can't afford to lose you. P-please. I love you so much. Don't leave me."
Third Person's POV
Jungkook cried his heart out while still holding Jimin's hands. He just let his tears come out continuously from his eyes. The bed sheets started to be filled with his tears. He didn't even care anymore if he looks so ugly and stupid right now. All he know is he needed to let this all out. Having too much emotions stuck in his heart is already ruining him internally. He's a crying mess. His loud cry filled the whole room. He didn't care about his cracked voice. As he's still caught up in his emotions, he didn't even notice that someone is watching him from the little window on the door, who is also crying seeing him so weak right now.
"Don't worry, Jungkook. I will help you. I will do everything just to bring back everything between you and Jimin. You are both victims. You both deserve happiness, not the cruelty of this world. I promise I'll help you get the justice for you. She will pay for ruining your lives, as well as my brother's life." The unknown person silently said, still crying, then turned around and walked away.
HE's POV
I decided to just stay in Choi's office. Well, it's been years so I want to catch up with the old days. We used to be so close. I'm really happy that he still is willing to do me a favor. Well, it's more like I threatened him. I know. You can all tell me hurtful words but I don't care. I will never let Jimin take Jungkook away from me again. This is my time. I already did so much and even sinned worst but if it means Jungkook is the price of it all, I'm willing to do bad things.
I was checking my phone when my dad texted me about the company. Aishh. Don't even cut in even if you are my father. So, I just texted him that 'I don't want to. Don't even bother me.' I rolled my eyes then throw my phone on the desk. He's been pressuring me about taking over the company lately but I don't want to. Not until I get Jungkook just for myself.
The door suddenly opened. I didn't look behind. I just waited for him to sit on his chair.
Ya, I think Jungkook recogni-..." He sat on his chair but didn't finish his sentence as the door opened again. I'm too lazy to look and know who it is so I just focused looking at my friend infront of me. Maybe, it's just some of the annoying nurses reporting about his patients or what. But then, I saw his eyes widened. My brows furrowed at it so I looked back. This time, I'm shocked as well.
"Ya! Why are you here? I thought you are based in Daegu." Said the one who I just avoided earlier. His eyes are fixed on Choi. His brows are furrowed. Then his eyes fell on mine. Slowly, his eyes widened, too. Well, I can't blame him. But wait, is this some sort of reunion party? I removed my shocked face and replaced it with a smirk.
"Y-You...H-How...?" Ooooh interesting. I can hear the nervousness from his voice.
"Hello, Mark. Long time no see, my friend." I blurted out, still slaying a smirked face at him.
"Wha-...H-how..." I almost laughed because of his face right now. He looked like he have seen a ghost as I noticed his face becoming pale.
"Well, if you're just gonna ask how am I here or why am I here again, then I won't answer you. I believe you already know the answer to your question." He froze.
"Oh come on. Sit with us." I said to him then stood up and sat on the long couch. I gestured him to sit beside me. He didn't respond for a moment so I leaned back until my back hit the soft pillow of the couch. Then, he slowly moved his feet on my direction but sit a little bit far away from me instead. I can't help but let out a laugh.
"Are you being serious right now? You're feeling nervous with me? Ha! It's like we never became friends before. Now that I think of it, you really did become Hoseok's real boyfriend. What a joke. Did you even realize what will your boyfriend feel once he finds out that you really didn't love him at first. You just courted him for me. Poor Hoseok." I acted a sad face that made him more nervous.
"No please. Don't tell him. I love him so much now." He said, almost tearing up. His face is begging.
"Oh so you really did fall in love with him. Poor you. You shouldn't have your weakness conquer you. Look at what is coming for you now. So complicated." I shook my head, feeling a little sad for him.
"P-Please don't tell him." His eyes are begging me as he grabs my hands but I slapped them away.
"Oh I can't help you with that. You know that. Once we're all caught, that is the end for you as well. So I guess what you need to do right now is keep your mouth shut 'til the end. That includes you, too." I pointed at Choi. He didn't react at all so I guess he knows what to do.
"We're all in this hell together, my friends." I added. Then, a bright idea came to my mind.
"Wait, you could do something for me, Mark. Help me distract your so-called friends so I could see Jungkook."
