In the midst of life's relentless challenges, both physical and mental, I found myself grappling with an overwhelming sense of despair.
Day by day, my heart weakened, breathing became a struggle, and the pain threatened to consume me. Giving up seemed like an enticing option, a tempting escape from the relentless agony.
But what was stupid of me was in a moment of unintentional vulnerability, I shared my thoughts with Tae. And as we all can guess, he didn't take it very nicely.
The devastation in his eyes mirrored the chaos within me. He hugged me as tears streamed down his face. His words, a lifeline thrown into the abyss, pierced through the darkness that was in my mind.
"I'll never let you do that to yourself. Not now, not ever. If you leave, where will I go? I have no one but you, Jungkook. Please don't say these words. It breaks my heart. It kills me to even think. I promise you I'll save you. I don't care about limits. If it death shows up ill beat the shit out of him you hear me! We are the famous Taekook, remember? And Tae and Kook never give up...not on each other, not on themselves. So please, please don't ever say it like that. Please... please dont give up.. Please"

The sight of him, vulnerable and in pain, struck me to my core. In that moment, a wave of realization crashed over me – what was I even thinking about? How could I have thoughts that would inflict agony upon this person standing right in front of me? If I left, it might have meant an end for me, but for him, it would be an unbearable torment. And that is something Ill never let happen.
"Hey Im so sorry ok? I promise I won't even think about these stuff anymore. Hey, *cupping his face* Taekook will never give up on each other. After all, we are_"
PRESENT
"I would like to ask Mr. Jeon, one of the closest member of Taehyung, his best friend, to come up here and share a few words with us."
The priest's announcement cut through the quiet murmurs, pulling me back from the depths of my thoughts.
"Hah... Was I zoning out again? It's happening a lot recently, isn't it?" I mused silently, a wistful smile playing on my lips.
The unspoken completion of that sentence echoed in our shared determination, a vow to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
