     "Kookie, come on. We will be late, and your mom will be angry." the brown haired-man comments, smiling at his son.

    "Where, appa?" the little boy asks, his big eyes full of confusion.

     "At the cemetery, son. Your mother has already been buried, now I'm the next one. " the tall man says, and little Jungkook stops immediately.

    "Wh- what?" the little boy whispers, as his father knells in front of him.

    "Did you forget, angel? Your mother and I are already in heaven. But you have to stay alive for a long time. " the man comments, then he gets up, without looking again at his son.

     The little boy looks after him with lost and sad eyes, wondering where his parents are, and why he is alone now. But then he remembers... his parents died.

"He will be okay, right?"

"Why didn't he tell me what happened? "

"Everything will be fine, Tae. Calm down, son."

     Jungkook tries to open his eyes slowly, feeling a slight smell of disinfectant and the pills, bothering his nose at the same time. He feels his head heavy, and after he manages to open his eyes, the first thing he sees is a white ceiling. If he said he knew what the hell happened or why he was in a hospital room, he would be lying. He really has no idea what happened after the idiot Mathew ...

    Wait, that bastard said what he did to him. Jimin, Yoongi, Bogum, Mr. Chang ... they were all there. Everyone found out what happened to him. That's what Jungkook feared the most. That's why he was so damn scared. He doesn't even want to think about how he will be seen in the opinion of others from now on. Like a weak and useless man. Like a whore. Like a-

     "Kook, you are finally awake!" someone pulls him out of his thoughts, then sees Jimin quickly approaching him.

    He barely notices the others, who are sitting on the couch just a few feet away from him. Yoongi and Mr. Chang also gets up and approaches his bed, while Taehyung stands a few meters away from him. He looks at him, but he seems to be looking through him, not at him. He seems lost and completely disturbed.

     "What... what happened?" the younger one manages to ask, looking confused around.

     Jimin smiles, but his best friend can easily see the dry tears on his cheeks. He cried. He cried and this is more than sure just because of him. That's why he didn't want to tell him, that's why he didn't want to know what had happened. Because he knew how much it would hurt him, because he knew how much pain it would cause him.

    "You ... you fainted two hours ago during the trial. " Jimin answers, then looks more serious after that. "Why? Why didn't you call me Jungkook? Where ... where is the trust we had in each other? " he then asks in a hurt tone, and the younger one tries his best to not cry again.

     "I... I am sorry, Jimin. I just-"

     "I think you've suffered a lot on your own. " Jimin interrupts him, and Jungkook instantly looks at Taehyung, then smiles weakly.
