Chapter 33 🏇

I sigh as I drag my feet up the steps to Jimin's house and ring the bell. Not long after, Hilda opens the door and smiles.

" Ms. Kim.. you don't have to ring the bell! You're welcome here any time. "
I give her a smile and bow before stepping in and walking to my room with tired, sloppy steps.

I fling open the door only to be met by Jimin sitting on my bed.
" Hey.. " I mumble and make my way to the bathroom.
" Where were you? " Jimin asks, his eyes now fixed on me.
" Let me change first. " I say and he nods.

* Time skip *

I step out of the bathroom with my onesie and see Jimin laying on my bed, staring at the ceiling.

I lay down next to him and he turns on his side, propping himself up with his elbow and resting his head on his palm.

" So.. how have things been going? "
I ask.
" Well.. I think about him more often than usual. " He says with a tinge of sadness in his voice.

Immediately, I sit up when I remember what I wanted to talk to him about.
" Jimin, I know how to help you.. "
" Help me? I don't need- "
" Please, Jimin I don't want you to go to a point of no return! Hear me out.."

His gaze redirects to the ceiling as he plops back down and sighs.
" Ok.. "
" So.. today, I remembered Eomma's discharging date. "
" Holy shit, I completely forgot! " Jimin says, looking at me with wide eyes.

" It's ok, she was at home.. I was so happy when I saw her. At first, she looked so depressed, but when she opened up about my father, I could see how a radiating glow made its way back to her face.. I haven't seen her like that in a long time. "

" What did she say about your dad? " Jimin asks with furrowed eyebrows.
" She told me that she's letting him go.. "
An unreadable expression surfaced on Jimin's face and he said,
" I see where this is going. "

A/N P.O.V :

" Well, it's the only way, Jimin! Y-you've been so depressed over him and it's- "
" Of course I would be! You would never understand what we had! It was a bond that was unlike any other, Y/N.. you expect me to just throw all that away? "

" Well, what's the point? What's the point of you sulking in your room, destroying yourself day by day for a man who's already dead? Where's your bond now? "
There was silence from Jimin as he now sat up straight, his eyes fixed on his fidgeting fingers.

Y/N inches closer to him and places her hand on his back,

" Jimin, listen... I'm only trying to help you.. I don't want to watch you destroy yourself like how I watched my father. I've let it happen once in my life, and I don't want to witness it again. "

He glances at her and takes a deep breath. 

" I-i just miss him.. I miss his presence.. i just wish there was something i could do to prevent what happened.. " He says, as memories of that day played like a movie in his mind.

" I know.. i know, I felt the same way. But soon enough, I realized it was impossible because my father's heart was stone hard and to the point where no matter how much I tried, he would either shun me away or threaten to beat me up... which he eventually did. You have to reason it all out in your head.. if your uncle was alive, would he be happy seeing you like this? "

" But he isn't. " Jimin says stubbornly, but on the inside, he felt the walls he had built to block out the world slowly begin to crumble. 

" Exactly my point. Do you remember his words before the incident? "
