Erroneous [Vminkook]

57: Not My Gem

It's been two weeks since the incident with Jimin happened, and Jimin has been healing up at a steady rate.

With Seokjin and Lucas as his little guardian angel of course, since they always looks out for his physical health on the healing process.

Even Yeosang too has been there to be a somewhat guide to him, even though he just gets pissed off whenever Jimin babies him.

Since they're literally not that far apart.

When Jimim saw Jungkook and Karma again the next day after what happened, he just pulled on his usual act; be the snarky yet smug Jimin they grew to adore.

Even if he was dying on the inside.

Everything appeared like it was going back to normal, when in reality it was just Jimin becoming more and more emotionless to his feelings while hiding it behind his wide smile.

No one noticed, but Yeosang.

He knows Jimin when he's happy and when he's forced to be happy, and it's pissing him off.

So, he kept his word and decided it was the best time to speak to Jungkook after this whole time of calm waters has passed, just as promised.

"Hey dad, can we talk?"

Jungkook stops organizing his gun with bullets, moving his eyes up to look at his gem with a soft smile, "Sure," and he puts the gun aside and focus his whole attention on him from the bed, "What's the matter?"

Oh where does he even begin?

Yeosang stares at his father's face, feeling his lips tug to a frown as he studies the harsh hickey marks on the skin of his neck and the dark rings of bruises under his eyes from the amount of drugs intact and lack of sleep. His eyes aren't even glowing in the same light than how they use to be.

They're so..... Emotionless.

Jungkook is a dead flower by now.

So with Yeosang's walls falling completely down, He looks at his father gently, "I miss Woosung."

Jungkook's smile somewhat shifts, looking more forced than before, with his eyes still calm, "Aw, I miss him too-"

"No you don't," Yeosang cuts in, kneeling in front of him from the floor to meet his eye level from the bed, "Damn.... How far gone are you Kookie?"

Jungkook furrows his eyebrows in confusion, placing a hand over his forehead, "Do you have a fever?"

This got Yeosang annoyed.

"No Jungkook!" The boy snaps, slapping his hand away, "Why are you like this huh? What happened to having a better life for me doing this all in Woosung's memory-"

"Stop mentioning his name," Jungkook hisses through his gritted teeth, clearly trying to gain his composure, "Gosh you sound like Jim-"

Jungkook suddenly pauses, connecting Yeosang's words to a familiar blonde, not helping himself from breaking a smile, a more sarcastic smile as he looks at his son, laughing drily, "Of course.... You have a little crush on little Jimin huh? Letting him feed shit into your head now?"

Where did that even come from?

Yeosang's eyebrows raised and his glare turning much more murderous, "You have to let Jimin free dad. He's not well here, or let alone happy. You know this!"

Almost instantly Jungkook's smile drops and he leans to Yeosang's face with a cold stone stare, "You stay out of my business with Jimin. He's staying right here where he's safe and protected-"

"Are you even listening to yourself!" The boy shoots up to his feet, looking at his father in disbelief, "Since when do you hold people against their will captivated! This is holding someone hostage dad! You never use to give a shit whether people look at you the same way you do, why does that matter with Jimin?"

"That's before I realized how fucked up this world is!" Jungkook snarls back, shooting to his feet as well, "And don't you use that damn tone with me! You don't know shit about me-"

Yeosang grabs the vase nearby on the night stand and flings it against the wall in anger, letting out a frustrated groan, "You are starting to sound like Karma, and that's not a damn compliment!"

Almost instantly Yeosang is pushed back, a livid Jungkook glaring down at him, "Don't you start disrespecting Karma like that-"

"You know what, fine," Yeosang sneers, tears beaming his eyes, "You may not give a shit about your purpose anymore but I do. I will not be staying in this shit hole, so I'm going to go and live a better life like I promised Hwanwoong! Consider doing the same before making reckless decisions like killing your family!"

That hit a cold hearted shot to Jungkook's heart, hurting much more than he expected for it to.

Of course everyone here knew what he did, but he..... He didn't want Yeosang to see him any different.

It's too late now.

Yeosang marches to the door, ready to storm out to let out some steam but Jungkook snaps back out to him.

"Yeosang."

The boy stops.

"If you walk out that door.....Y-You're not my little gem anymore."

He's not my Jungkook.

Don't take it to the heart.

He's not well.

Yeosang closes his eyes, letting out a heavy deep breath, "You see..... My father would never say that to me...... I hope you find yourself again, Jungkook."

And he closes the door behind him, leaving Jungkook to feel like he's been shot on his chest more than a thousand times.

He doesn't even know what the fuck is going on with himself anymore.

And that terrifies him.
