Ch#60: The Last Goodbye

"Truth be told, I had come for you," Said Seokjin, releasing a grieved sigh, "I had come to mourn for our baby, but the scene before my eyes in the elevator blew my mind confoundedly."

Despaired to his soul, he hugged his knees as he sat on the stone cold floor of lockup.

Luna watched him sympathetically as he added.

"You know, not in the entire world is anything more painful than one sided love. And, unfortunately, I have become its victim."

"I understand."

"Yes. Yes, only you can understand me," He gave his head a slow nod, managing to carve a grieved smile on his lips. "No one else understands me, not even she; I immolated every other joy in front of her_ even my child, yet couldn't smudge Jimin's love away from her heart."

The color of Luna's face changed at the remembrance of her child, but she didn't let him know the storms rising inside her chest and spoke up.

"You shouldn't have done this to her."

"Yes, perhaps you're right." He nodded lowly, "I shouldn't have done this to her. Blinded by the curtain of selfishness, I destroyed the lives that were dearest to me in the whole world. What have I done!"

He threw his head in his hands, mourning at all his false decisions. But what could be done now? Everything was destroyed, just because of him.

She sat closer to him and, passing her hand through the iron bars, she took his hands in hers.

"Don't be hopeless," She said, "everything's gonna be okay. You'll be out of here very soon-"

"That doesn't matter," He cut her sentence in the middle, "what matters is how I will be able to confront her, to eye her. What will I reply her when she'll ask me why did I do this. I've felled myself in her eyes to the point she will never forgive me."

Tears rolled down his eyes as he confessed himself her sinner.

"I knew he lives in her soul still I threw him into the brink of death and let her yearn for him."

She opened her mouth to say something but his miserable state made her wordless. There was nothing she could do nor could she say anything, for what he said was right. No matter how much Y/N tried to curtain her love for Jimin, it was a fact that she still lived for him and loved him with all her heart and soul.

Luna knew the decision taken by her best friend was just to lull herself, and nothing else. But she was thankful that, no matter if later, Y/N had known her real destiny. She was happy for her that her best friend wouldn't have to be through any other trial. But she didn't know Y/N's happiness was just a matter of minutes, and the person she loved the most would ruin her best friend's life.

Tightening her grip on Seokjin's hands, she tried to give him one last hope.

"Everything's gonna be okay. Your lawyer is talking to the commissioner."

"I deserve it," He spoke up, "I deserve the penalty for flirting with my beloveds and crushing their trusts. I deserve it."

The clouds of regret and guilt floating in his eyes squeezed the blood from her heart. She just watched him silently.

"Try to understand, Mister Commissioner. That was just an accident. Why would my client intend to shoot his own best friend?"
