Love Like This ( Taegi x Yoonmin)

Now you know, You're free to go -II

If you feel scared walking down an empty street, hold your hand, if you're feeling alone on dark nights, wrap your arms around yourself, take a deep breath and feel proud of yourself for coming this far.

remember, you aren't meant to settle for people who show care only when you're needed, shower their warmth and affection only when they want to. you deserve to be happy, not crying at the thought of not being good enough for them or anyone else.

love isn't perfect. people who are in love aren't perfect either. what's perfect is the idea of loving and being loved the way one wants to be loved. humans are deceptive, aren't they? not every promise made to you is kept, people indeed leave, and it's only a matter of time. but what stays with you is the definition of love depending on how you were treated in the past.

Yoongi doesn't know if love is an overrated or underrated feeling because he knows people who've been happily in love for years. Like his parents and grandparents, but at the same time, he also knows some people who're in love and suffering every day.

Like he, himself

what he believes is that love is neither the best nor worst feeling in the world. it's all in your head. you accept that it's the best feeling when everything you have been expecting from it comes to you with ease. But love is awful to those who are deceived, played on, and left alone with a broken heart. It hurts like a sharp sword cutting you deep down your throat while you're pretending to be perfectly fine.

People always dreamt of a beautiful kind of love story. Yoongi was no exception. A love story where sharing vulnerabilities, and making them feel special, and loved is your kind of thing, but once you get that kind of love, you always fear, what if you ruin things with them, what if your action makes them leave you, you always try to keep things easy and soft.

Because once you get attached to the person you love As Yoongi did with Jimin, it's kinda hard for you to let go of them, because your naive heart sucks at saying goodbye, and at the same time you can't leave anyone at first.

Patience... That was the name Yoongi to his inability to leave Jimin first and he pretended to be oblivious about how it's far from "patience".

He could die for love, but this love he had for a certain boy always kills him from within, not because of all those times when he gave his whole heart to someone and always received betrayal and not the same love kinda thing, but because he has never dreamt of loving someone instead of Jimin. It's just because in the end, for years, he got hurt by his too-good-to-be true expectations.

After trying so hard, he got tired of loving with this same frequency of his heart, because now his broken pieces aren't willing to love the same, and can't give the same kind of love to anyone. Even to Jimin. He isn't out of love, but that doesn't mean he can hold on more and more either.

so, he chose to give the amount of love that anyone deserves, and not much.because now his wounded heart fears falling and giving its pieces to someone again in the same way.

It took him years, but Yoongi finally accept the facts.

Accepted his fate...

When it's over, he should leave and should not continue watering a dead flower. The equation of love is tragically beautiful. love often comes disguised as wrong people, broken hearts, and toxic minds.

Yoongi stared at Jimin's eyes for solid 10 seconds, and unsurprisingly he didn't see any amount of familiarity in those brown orbs.

It's really time to say goodbye.

"Okay, I'll let you go"

.

Jimin watched Yoongi with absolute surprise. He didn't expect the elder to be convinced too easily because it's 11 years of feelings they have been talking about. A part of Jimin let out a relief because he is finally free of the weight of guilt mixed with regret he had been carrying for years.
