A couple of weeks had passed you kept putting the meeting off. Today, you agreed to have Jimin bring your mom and Yoongi over to Layla's home to discuss the situation. Honestly, you haven't been in the best of moods. You didn't want to be around anyone.
You fell into a deep depression, and your suicidal tendencies are lurking once again. You could care less about Jin. You fucking hate everything about him. It was coming to grips that your mom died of murder instead of the disease she was fighting.
You blamed yourself because you were working keeping your mom's three businesses afloat plus helping Seokjin with his business. That is how Jin had all the time to kill —your mother..~slowly.
You couldn't come to terms with it because you felt responsible for her death. The guilt and grief were hard to cope with. You didn't eat or sleep right for a while now.
Yoongi, your mother, and Jimin were coming at noon. Layla wondered what was taking you so long in the restroom. She picked the lock and found you in the bathtub filled with water mixed with your blood—the knife on the edge of the tub.
Your lips were turning purplish-blue, and your skin was pale. Layla lifted your arms and found both wrists with deep lacerations on each of them. She tried to stop the bleeding and called the paramedics right away. When the medics arrived, so did Jimin, Yoongi, and your mother. They saw you come out of Layla's house on a gurney.
Jimin yelled out... “WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY LOVE?!?” Yoongi was angry but tried to console Jimin at the same time. “She slit her wrists.” Layla starts to cry. “I was wondering why she was taking so long in the restroom. I picked the lock and found her in the tub that way.”
One of the paramedics went over by the family. “One person can ride with Y/N in the ambulance. Your mom went with you. Jimin, Yoongi, and Layla rode to the hospital in Jimin's SUV. Layla called the police to secure the room, not to let Mr. Kim Soekjin in Y/N's room or near her was the order.
While you were getting the proper care for the wounds on your wrist, everyone sat on the bench seat in front of your hospital room. “Hello Layla, my name is Hanbyeol. What was the reason for Y/N doing this? Please tell me it's not because of this man Kim Seokjin.” She was in tears, waiting for a response.
“It's not because she is in love with him that she did this. It's because she felt guilty that she had to care for her mother's three businesses when she was bedridden. She hardly had time to spend with her mom in her last days.” Everyone listened intensively to what Layla was saying. All four of them are subdued as they sit there helplessly waiting for any information about you.
Finally, after a few hours, the nurses took you to your room. The doctor talked to your family. “Hello Min Family, I'm Dr. Lee. Well, Y/N is stable now. She sliced her wrist deep, catching the ulnar artery. Whoever found her stopped the hemorrhaging in the nick of time. She could have died within five minutes or less if the bleeding hadn't stopped. Luckily, we were able to reverse the damage through surgery. Y/N is currently having a blood transfusion.” Just then, the nurse came out of your room. “All of you can see her now.” Everyone shook the doctor's hand, thanking him.
Your mom, Yoongi, Jimin, and Layla entered your room. You were sleeping. Jimin went by your bedside and held your hand. He broke down. He had a hard time coping with almost losing the love of his life. He weeps as Yoongi pat him on his back. “She will pull through. Y/N is a strong woman.” Yoongi continues to console Jimin as he sheds a few tears himself.
Your mom and Layla, on the other side of your hospital bed, are hugging each other. This was too much to take in at once—everything terrible happening, when will the happiness start to shine? Will there ever be a light at the end of the tunnel?
Shortly after, you opened your eyes. Jimin kisses your lips as he pleads. “Please, baby, don't do that again. I can't lose you. I need you— I love you...” His body trembles as he continues to cry uncontrollably. “Yes, baby sis, we all love you and care for you. We need you as much as you need us.” Tears fall from Yoongi's eyes effortlessly.
Your mom grabs your other hand as you fix your eyes on her. “We all love you so much. The thought of losing you today has taken a toll on us. Please, Princess, open up to us. We are here for you.” You could feel a swell in your throat as you tried to fight back the tears. All you could muster up was a ‘Sorry.’
You felt bad for all the pain and heartache you put them through from this selfish act. There was nothing more that you could say but sorry. Yoongi and Layla went to get some refreshments for everyone as your mom and Jimin stayed back with you.
Your mind is spinning as your head starts to throb—your body weak since you haven't eaten anything for three days. What have I done? I may have complicated things for everyone. You faintly squeezed Jimin's hand before passing out from pure exhaustion and heartache. Jimin buried his head in the crook of your neck, inhaling your scent before nodding off.
Meanwhile, Layla and Yoongi sat down at a table in the cafeteria to drink coffee and have a snack. “From the bottom of my heart, thank you for saving my baby sister's life. If it weren't for you, she wouldn't be here.”
He cracked a half-smile as he waited for a response. “Don't need to thank me. I would do anything for Y/N. She is more than a friend to me. She is my baby sister, whom I love very much.” She slightly smiled as her eyes locked with his.
“I want to know briefly what is being done to Seokjin with his charges that the US will be filing against him?” He was curious to know how the US was handling things. He wanted the charges to stick. Aunty Eunji, you, and the rest of the family need justice for the misfortune —that Jin has done to all of you.
“We have a strong case against him which is good. Aunty Eunji's body was exhumed today. It will take time to get test results for poisoning back. There is also a TRO on Seokjin. He can't be near her. That is why I asked for police presence here. Just in case he has any ideas to get close to her.” Layla explained.
Yoongi was happy to hear the news. All he and the family wants is justice served. He finally got to meet the mystery woman that he took a liking to —now that Yoongi knows a little more about her. He is warming up to Layla quite well and fast. But the first thing on the menu is getting Justice for the lost life and the tragedy it left behind. They bought some refreshments and snacks before heading back up to your room.
Your mom is on the opposite side of your bed, looking at your hand, all bandaged up. A million thoughts are swirling in her head. How much more pain and suffering must my daughter go through? She dotes on you and Jimin.
Jimin's head nuzzled in your neck as he slept. She smiled as she remembered this same scene from the past when both of you were teens. Every time she came to visit, he would fall asleep in the crook of her neck. If Y/N were living in Korea, all of this wouldn't have happened, and these two lovebirds would've been married off by now.
In time Jimin and my beautiful Princess will have happiness together that will last a lifetime. This tragedy wasn't in vain. It made their love even more potent. Oh, Jimin, I would happily take you as my son-in-law and give my daughter's hand in marriage to you. She continues to adore this special moment between the both of you.
