Chapter 16: Closure

'When you're holding me
Morning will come
And I'll do what's right
Just give me till then
To give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
'Cause I can't make you love me... if you don't
you can't make your heart feel something... it won't'

'Cause I can't make you love me... if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something... it won't'

"Can we please listen to something else?" Jimin asks Chayeol who's driving and glances at Jimin from time to time. The smaller boy has been talkative during the ride, asking him questions and talking about random things non-stop. Jimin became silent only a minute ago when the specific song started. "Why? The song makes you sad?"

"No, I just want something more upbeat, you know?" It's strange how Chanyeol doesn't have any music app on his phone, and Jimin realized he left his phone with Taehyung earlier at the party. Jimin then presses the button to change the station as he sighs and sits back, trying to relax.

'I start to imagine a world where we don't collide
It's making me sick, but we'll heal and the sun will rise
If you tell me you're leaving, I'll make it easy
It'll be okay
If we can't stop the bleeding
We don't have to fix it, we don't have to stay
I will love you either way'

'the future we dreamed of is fading to black'

'there's nothing more painful
Nothing more painful'

The lyrics hit him again. What's wrong with these people managing radio stations and their terrible timing? Do they have to play these songs right when he's completely heartbroken? Jimin then pushes the button again to change the station. The beat of the new song sounds chill, so Jimin sits back again, but right when he starts to feel relaxed. It hits him again.

'While anger's quicker
I know it's greedy
But it's hard to look at you
And just pretend
And I don't want to lose a friend
But if I keep my distance I know this will end
I know that you're not trying but you pull me in
And I can't seem to escape
No I don't want to lose a friend'

"Oh my god." Jimin rolls his eyes. The radio is not even on his side today. Jimin clicks on the button one more time.

'...didn't want to lose you, lose you
So why you gotta leave? I need you here with me
Just hold me like yo-"

'Loving you is a losing game'

'Could you find a way to let me down slowly?
A little sympathy, I hope you can show me
If you wanna go the-'
