Author's POV

"God Jungkook, where have you been?" Aíden asked, panicking clear in his voice as he grabbed his pants and started to wear them while Jungkook just looked at him confusedly; what was this all fuss about?

"Nowhere. What's wrong? You look panicked." He raised a question, watching Aíden zipping up his jeans in a quick manner. It's Thursday which means Jungkook needed to go to work but since he received the not-so-sweet news about Jimin right after he woke up, immediately he went to the hospital without taking a morning shower; so now, he comes back to get ready for work.

"Jimin is admitted to the hospital!! I need to see him!!" Aíden said quickly and started to pack up a tiny bag, putting what he needed inside; failed to notice the pained facial expressions that were plastered across Jungkook's face as soon as he mentioned the certain other. After he finished his shower that morning, he got out of the bathroom only to find that his fianceé was nowhere to be seen but then he remembers that one call and checks the history log which reveals SeokJin's name on it. He didn't waste any time and called back, which later on he got the news about Jimin.

His action stopped when he got no answer from Jungkook as he glanced behind him and raised eyebrows in a questioning way. "What's wrong?" He asked and stared at Jungkook, noticing the male was actually wearing casual clothes; meaning he went somewhere, and not to add how the younger face clearly displayed; tension– which only makes it more obvious that something is wrong.

"I…" Jungkook trailed off, still hesitant with his decision. It's not easy if you face it for real, he doesn't know if he's strong enough to endure all of the situations in the future if he chooses Jimin. But he wanted a perfect ending… Now he had learned in a hard way that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, or end. It makes him realize that life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment, and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.

And he knows the only way for him to get the happy ending is if he chooses Jimin. Why? Simply because he loves the male.

It was the beginning and the ending of everything.

"You what?" Aíden asked innocently, breaking Jungkook from his daze as he looked up at the other; decided that it was time for him to tell the truth. He doesn't think he could continue this any longer and just like what SeokJin had said; he needs to show Jimin his effort. "We need to talk." He declared and watched Aíden stare at him for a second, probably wanting to ask what it was but didn't question further and only gave a nod in return.

"Sure but not now, I need to visit Jimin and you need to go to work. We can talk about it at dinner tonight, I'll cook for us." Aíden remarked as Jungkook sighed and nodded a little, clearly not loving the decision but needed to comply either way. The other is right, he indeed got work to settle; not only his business paperwork but also NamJoon and the rest of his friends. Though they don't need to know, Jungkook still decided on telling them. After all, they have done nothing but stay beside him through ups and downs together.

"Right. Now go take a shower." Aíden advised before making his way towards Jungkook and gave a peck on his lips before leaving the room in hurry; not knowing that would be the last time. Jungkook stood still in the room, gazing at every inch of it as stigma filled up inside his stomach while he remembered every memory he shared with the other male.
