Heart That I Desire || Taekook, Vkook

Chapter 28 : Distance

Third Person P.O.V :-

"So what now?" Yoongi asked out as he sat in one of the canteen tables of the hospital with a sandwich in his hand while Jimin placed down a tray holding two cups of coffee for the both of them and settled down on his seat across from Yoongi.

"Honestly...I'm kinda lost, Hyung" Jimin voiced out as he picked his cup up and stared at his reflection,"There's just so much to be done, it's starting to feel a little overwhelming" He mumbled sadly.

Yoongi nodded to acknowledge his friend's hardship, picking up his own cup now,"Tell me all of the problems that are overwhelming you, let's try to solve them one by one" He suggestly, reaching out to his friend for help.

Jimin looked down at his lap wondering where he should even begin,"Jungkook is in ICU right now, they said they'll transfer him to the general ward once his condition has gotten under control but he doesn't like strangers, if he wakes up surrounded by unknown people, he might have a panic attack" He said, looking up at his Yoongi hyung for solutions.

Yoongi looked back at him, carefully considering how he should express the things he was feeling,"Why do you worry so much about that boy? He broke your marriage" He said, stopping himself from cursing in front of Jimin.

Jimin smiled bitterly,"He's sick, hyung, mentally he's not in his right state of mind, a lot of bad things happened to the poor boy, it messed him up as a person, I'm sure if he was normal he would have thought about the consequences of his actions" He said as he looked up at his hyung helplessly,"How can I hold grudge against a boy who's sanity is in shambles? It'll be the equivalent of me fighting a disabled person" He added and went back to spinning the drink in his cup.

Yoongi clicked his tongue in irritation,"So you're just gonna give up everything gracefully?" He asked in a harsh tone,"Park Jimin, if you keep on being the bigger person the world is just going to screw you further" He grumbled and looked away in annoyance.

"I just can't find it in myself to hate him, hyung.." Jimin uttered out remorsefully,"He has no one left, I lost my parents at a young age as well, deep inside I've always related to his troubles, even though I had this big group of people to call family, I've always felt alone, I just wanted him to get better and have a place to belong" He whispered as his eyes turned glassy.

Every time he remembered how he had lost his parents, a deep pain would conjure up in his heart.

Yoongi observed Jimin's gloomy disposition and sighed softly, he felt a little bad for making Jimin remember unpleasant memories,"I see, then about the problem regarding the panic attack, we'll just have to reserve a private ward" He spoke aloud his solution, bringing his cup up to take another sip,"What's the next problem?" He asked.

Jimin looked like he was jerked up from a daze, he must have been considering the likelihood of getting a private ward, Yoongi concluded.

"Oh um the next is probably the divorce" He mumbled out,"We agreed to part but there's still the filing process and waiting stage, moreover I don't have any lawyers in mind who'd do it quick without ripping me off" He said in concern as he looked at Yoongi with hopeful eyes for a solution.

Yoongi leaned back in his seat, pondering deeply on the topic,"It's true, it's really hard to find good lawyers who won't rip you off in this economy" He mumbled under his breath and tapped his finger nails on the surface of the table while he thought.

Yoongi's eyes suddenly widened as an idea suddenly struck his head,"Oh! You know Jin hyung, right?!" He asked out, excited at the thought that he might have the answer to Jimin's worries.

"Jin hyung? Kim Seokjin hyung from the public relations department?" Jimin asked out curiously.

"Yeah, yeah, I went fishing with him a few times, I remember he said he had gotten a mutual divorce for a really good deal, he said that the alimony and child support were both cheap because his lawyer was a capable man" Yoongi provided context to his idea.
