Erroneous [Vminkook]

73: Reflection

Jungkook stayed in the room with Jimin a moment longer, telling him all these stories of Woosung with now glittering emotions of happiness in his eyes. Jimin listened. He listened through it all.

He laughed when something was funny.

He nods when Jungkook wanted him to understand.

He was strong when the ravenette began to cry.

And smiles when Jungkook was happy.

From there on....... Jungkook's eyes began to fill with light once again as he accepts Woosung's memory back into his life.

Along with Yeosang's too, letting them slowly heal from it.

As the two lay down on the floor, staring at the ceiling with a peaceful aura around them, a certain doubt began to cloud Jimin's mind.

Karma.

They have to know what they're going to do about Karma.

"Jungkook," Jimin whispers, making the ravenette turn to him, "Do you..... Do you still love Karma?"

Silence, once again was the room filled with silence.

Jimin officially turns to Jungkook, seeing the hard look on his face as he stares at the ceiling and how he flutters his eyes closed, "No... It wasn't love. He just wanted control over me," He whispers and narrows his eyes, "I'm going to report back to the agency-"

"Wait."

Jungkook turns to look back to Jimin, who held a heavy gaze of unease, "Let's..... Let's talk to him first."

Jimin could see the clear confusion on Jungkook's face when he says this, instantly sitting up, "Talk to him? You wanted to run away from him, even shot him, now you.... want to talk to him? I thought you hated him?"

"Oh trust me I do," He huffs and sits up as well, "But..... I feel like we need that closure from him..... We need to know why he did everything he did to us, with what purpose. We won't officially be free if we don't understand."

Jimin's right, of course he's right. Even though Jungkook has finally come to understand his circumstances, he won't ever be at peace with himself unless he knew Karma's motives behind this.

He may not love him, doesn't mean he didn't have a small bit of affection in his heart left for him.

As sad as it is.

"Alright," Jungkook nods, seeing the small twitching smile on his lips, "I promised your freedom and protection..... I won't let you down again."

Jimin chuckles with a shake of his head, leaning over to wrap his arms around Jungkook's shoulders, laying his head on his chest, "Dont worry, I can handle myself if things go south."

Now came the guilt.

So much guilt.

How could Jimin be so nice to him after everything he's done?

It's not like the other didn't understand where Jungkook was coming from, but it would be easier for Jungkook to handle his guilt if Jimin was mad at him.

But he's not..... And it just makes him feel like shit.

Jungkook deeply inhales and runs a hand through Jimin's hair, "I'm so sorry Jimin.... I'm so sorry for how I acted with you."

"Stop it's okay," Jimin huffs lightly, and he gently pulls away, "We talked about this. It's okay."

A heavy pout forms Jungkook's lips, "Still.... I don't feel good about it," He whispers and slowly stands up, looking around the room, "I hope he's not upset with me too."
