Another Shade Of Love

Water Colors

All the lights of the auditorium were turned on, but all Yoongi could see was darkness. There was chaos in the audience and the organizers were trying to calm them down. But he couldn't hear anything. Suddenly he shifted his head towards Jin. He watched as some of the staff brought a stretcher and put Jin on it. Kook was right there, not letting go of Jin's hand. Kook went out off the stage with the staff. Yoongi couldn't even take a step. He remembered Jin's words before their performance. Jin jokingly said that he was gonna die on the stage. "Why did he say that? What's happening? Is he also going to leave me like others? Am I going to lose Jin?" He was tinking standing on the stage.

Suddenly he saw Heejin from the corner of his eyes. She was standing at a side of the stage, smiling at him. "Why are you here again? What do you want from me? I want to forget you. Just leave me alone, please!" He said in his breath. He didn't know if anyone heard him or not. But he didn't care. She didn't disappear.

Suddenly Yoongi felt a slap on his shoulder and he regain his sense and realized what was happening there. It was Joon. Tae was coming running towards them.

"Hay, Yoong! Are you alright? Why are you standing like this?" Joon asked with a worried voice.

"Where is Jin?" It was all Yoongi could ask.

"He is inside the artists' resting room. Jimin, Kook, Hobi are there. A doctor is examining Jin. Let's go there." Tae said.

"Where is mom?" Yoongi's eyes were finding his mother.

"Your mother... Look, there she is."

Yoongi saw his mom was going backstage with a worried face. But someone caught Yoongi's attention. "Dad! How is it even possible?! Am I hallucinating him like Heejin?! Am I becoming crazy? What the hell is happening here!" Yoongi grabbed his hair with his hands and sat on the stage.

"Hey, Yoongi! Can you hear me?... Joon, hold him. We need to get out of here!" Tae said and hold Yoongi's right arm to pull him. Yoongi rubbed his eyes and saw Heejin was still there. He clenched his fists, wanted to punch himself. Then he shook his head and told himself, "Don't need to think about her or dad. I need to go to Jin. I need him. I can't lose him. I can't lose anyone anymore. Bye Heejin, Bye for forever! I'm not going to think about you anymore. Just be happy in your life wherever you are."

Yoongi freed his hands from Joon and Tae and ran towards where Jin was. The other two followed him.

#Inside the Artists' resting room

When Yoongi, Joon, and Tae arrived there, they saw Jin, lying on the carpet of the room, still unconscious. A doctor was examining him. Kook, Jimin, and Hobi were standing in a corner, leaning on the wall. Jimin asked them to come and sit on the couch beside them. Tae and Joon went there but didn't sit. Yoongi saw his mother with his dad? "Is it him? So, he is not a hallucination. He has come back. But why? Why now?" He was thinking, standing beside the door frame.

"Yoongiah!" His mother softly called him. Her voice was filled with mixed feelings. He didn't answer just looked at her with sad eyes. Tears dropped but he immediately whipped them out and came beside Jin. The doctor signaled him to back off and sit elsewhere. But he didn't listen to him and sat near Jin and took Jin's right hand on his palm. Yoongi didn't want to think about his father and why did he come back. He just wanted to hold Jin tight enough so that no one can take him away from Yoongi. Jin was the one beside Yoongi's mother, who gave him a warm feeling, who melted the ice which had been covered Yoongi's heart. Jin gave him something that no one gave him, but Yoongi couldn't point that out. He just knew that he needed Jin in his life. He tightened his grip on Jin's hand. The doctor worriedly looked at him but Yoongi's mother assured the doctor.

Mr. Min could not decide on whom to focus on. His one son, whom he loved so much, was lying lifeless on the floor. The boy, who held Mr. Min's finger with his small hand and left his mother; his sister, and spent years with him, loved and respected him as the boy's real father. That boy never made Mr. Min feel the emptiness of his heart. Jin filled his heart with his pure smile and warmth like the morning sun.

And beside Jin was Mr. Min's son, whom he missed so much. The son, he had to left years back. The boy, for whom he cried silently every night. The boy, whom he wanted to hug tightly. He was in front of him. He wanted to give Yoongi all the love he could not give earlier. His two sons were in front of him but he didn't know to whom he needed to go that time.

Mrs. Min wanted her husband to meet their son in a happy bright situation. But the situation, they were in, was not happy at all. She knew how Jin was important to her son. Earlier she didn't know that Jin was the kid whom her husband wanted to bring home, but she liked Jin as her son's friend. She once told Jin that she was like his mother. And now Jin was lying there unconscious. That melted the remaining ice that was inside her heart. She wanted to hold both Yoongi and Jin in her arms and give Jin all the love he couldn't get from his mother.

And there was Jungkook, leaning on the wall. His eyes were fixed at Jin. Sometimes he could not see Jin's face clearly because of the tears he was holding back. He wanted to be there where Yoongi was. But he could understand the state of Yoongi's mind. So he backed off.

Hobi's eyes, at first, were on Jin, but when Yoongi sat there, Hobi's eyes shifted towards him. At first, he felt jealous. But then he felt that his heart was telling him not to be selfish. Yoongi was in his shoes too. He felt that.

Tae, Jimin, and Joon were still in the fog of what happened. After meeting others on their first day at the university, they felt complete. But now, it was like everything was shattering before their eyes. But they were somehow relieved because the thick dark cloud that surrounded Jin, Yoongi, and their family for so long was now slowly disappearing and a soft trail of sun rays were coming through the cloud.

After some time, Jin finally opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was his dad and Yoongi's mom were sitting in front of him, holding hands, eyes filled with so many emotions. A single tear fell from his eyes. But a small smile also appeared. He tried to sit when he felt Yoongi's grip on his hand. He looked at Yoongi and called him softly, "Yoongichi!"

And with that, everyone looked at him worriedly. Yoongi let go of Jin's hand and asked him, "are you okay, now?"

Jin couldn't say anything, just gave a soft smile and a nod.
