Jungkook kept looking at the retracting figure of Taehyung. He doesn't want him to go and leave him alone here with Jimin. 

Telling to talk was very easy for the actor, but in reality, it's far more complex. Communication is the key they say. But what if that communication was already broken some 8 years ago? Why suddenly do they have to communicate and solve the matter?

"Jungkook," Jimin whispered seeing Jungkook still staring at Taehyung's back. He knew that he had to start the conversion. He was also in dilemma, in debt -- a debt of guilt.

"I know I was the wrong Jungkook. I am not justifying my actions at all. I just want you to listen to me for once. Then the rest is in your hand. Do whatever you feel right." 

"Jimin, 'A sigh escaped his mouth', I-I don't know 'he stopped and looked at the brown eyes which were pleadingly staring at him' Ok fine." 

"Thank you so much Jungkook." 

"It all happened because of my parents." He looked for a moment and again looked at Jungkook's hazel orbs who were staring right into his with hidden emotions which Jimin was not able to detect.

[FLASHBACK]

Jungkook : 17 ; Jimin and Tae : 18 

It was the last year of high school. Everyone was preparing for the college entrance exams. Some were focusing a lot on their studies ignoring everything else while others were enjoying their last year along with their studies. 

Jimin, Tae and Kinsung belonged to the second one. Though taehyung was not good at studies, he was still focused as he wanted to attend the best university to major in performing arts. 

Jungkook and Jimin were friends since the start of high school, the day Jungkook transferred to their class. Jimin was the first one to approach and help Jungkook. 

Jungkook and Taehyung were never close. They just know each other since they were in the same class. A small 2-3 min. talk can happen between them but that was it. 

About Taehyung and Jimin, they both were best friends till middle school but the arrival of Kinsung made Taehyung tear apart from his childhood friend. 

It happened because Taehyung was curious to know about his mother. Kinsung's mother and his mother were close friends in school who still sometimes kept in touch with each other. So the moment he came to know that there is a way to get updates about his mother, he started tearing himself apart from the rest of his friends. 

Everything was going fine. Until Kinsung started crushing on Jungkook while Jimin had a crush on Kinsung for a long time. 

"Hey, Jiminieee," Kinsung whispered flirtingly. He loves to see the other getting shy but he doesn't know that he is giving out false hopes to him.

But before Jimin could reply, a soft voice spoke from behind and they looked back to see jungkook smiling while looking at his phn and calling out to Jimin. 

Kingsung's eyes lingered on the younger for more than a minute but he quickly averted them upon realising. Jimin looked down sadly -- seeing Kinsung admiring the other. He was not blind for not noticing what was happening around him. 

Same routine. Jungkook is totally oblivious while Jimin sadly looks at Kinsung who admired his friend from the back. Taehyung is completely clueless and enjoying himself with other of his friends. 

It's not like Taehyung and Jimin don't talk with each other at all but their bond is not the same as before. 

One day, of a sudden, Kinsung was on his knees proposing to Jimin. Jimin was shocked would be an understatement. Taehyung too was staring with his mouth wide open.
