Sempiternal: •Broken• || Book 2#

10. Accidental indiscretion

"Get away... get away from me-"

"No. That's not going to happen."

A faint scuffle is heard and more grumbling in hushed tones until there is nothing. Yoongi turns off the communicator and felt like throwing it on the floor, angry and almost raging. He gets up from the site and goes outside to clear his mind. His emotions have not been going well. While it is true that he is having a hard time getting out of anxiety and sadness, being given motivations to be angry is the opposite of an improvement.

Hoseok thinks about whether to go for him. In the end, it is Jin who does it. He leaves him that way. Jin is quite scary when he talks directly to anyone. For it usually means a very serious and troublesome matter that Namjoon didn't know how to give a solution to or he is the problem.

"Hey! Hey!"

Jungkook suddenly had thrown one of the cans of food and due to the pressure, one of the straits opened and spilled a little. Namjoon taps Jungkook a couple of times, getting his attention. The boy lets out an angry and impatient groan.

"Calm down." orders Namjoon and Jungkook gropes him.

"You can't say that to me...!"

"Can't you see that we can't fix this!?" Taehyung turns his head. If Namjoon responds this badly to Jungkook, it's because he's angry. "None of us are going to put up with you throwing this tantrum like you're thirteen years old!" he warns and Jungkook clenches his hands in his clothes, not looking at him. "We're going to get there: I don't know when, in what situation and I don't know what we'll do either, but until then keep all those bad moods to yourself as if nothing happened."

"JIMIN IS BEING RAPED THERE! YOU HEARD HIM!" Jungkook loudly demands with watery eyes. "I CAN'T JUST...!"

"What? what are you going to do here?" Namjoon interjects too closely, intimidating him. "You can't do anything here. None of us can do anything. Calm down sitting there, go to sleep or do whatever, but behave yourself." culminates Namjoon.

Hoseok feels too much tension in the air. He knows it's also happening because Namjoon is upset. They are all worried about the same thing. That conversation was too much. Even more than they would expect the relationship between Jimin and that faceless military man to be for them. He runs his hands over his face and lays them on his shoulders.

If there was any shred of doubt left in that camp, it has just been destroyed. It is impossible for any of them to stay in that place or allow Jimin to remain there. It is to flee. That's all they must do.

"What do you think?"

"That the world sucks."

Jin gives a light laugh and narrows his gaze at Yoongi. He notices how hard he's trying not to curse, not to let go of his frustration somehow. He looks up. Both of them on the rooftop of the small nursery. Yoongi remains with his attention down. Where there are a couple of infected lying around. He doesn't know why they have them there. They are pinned down and not moving. Maybe they froze at some point.

"Listen" Jin starts to say. "I understand your discomfort. I do very, very well-"

"Why do you come to lecture me if you understand me and know I'm right to be upset?" interrupts Yoongi speaking fast.

"Because it's no use being this angry now" Jin gives him a friendly shove. "There's nothing we can do. It's just stopping us from resting at least a little. I need you to calm down and go back to the others." he counters quietly. Yoongi scratches his head and keeps looking ahead. "What's wrong with you?" Jin repeats the question. Yoongi delays in answering him.
