Chapter 68: Watch me


Weird. What a comforting dream Jimin had. Jimin almost completely forgot about that ajuma he met. He still remembers the laugh and the kindness she shared with him. How she told Jimin that he doesn't need to apologize too much when he's with her. Jimin still remembers that the ajuma used to give him a hug. A hug that felt so warm.

The memories are a little blurry, but the feelings are still clear. That ajuma did not tell Jimin's her name. She only said if they get to meet when Jimin grows up and decides to contact her, that's when she would reveal her identity.

She hugged Jimin every time they met in that old restaurant. Best jajangmyeon? That's what Jimin remembers. A sweet face beams up in his sleep. Jimin wonders where she is, right now. Is she doing well? He can barely remember her face though. He only remembers her sweet and kind touch while telling Jimin that he deserves the best. Her son would be so lucky to have a mother like that.

'You deserve all the good things in the world. Remember, Jimin. You're kind, and that's your power.'

'How is kindness power? My appa is kind, and he can't win any arguments with anyone. He always said it's ok. My grandma is not kind, and she has power in the family.'

'That's not real power. You have the superpower when you have that courage to be kind. Being kind requires more courage than being angry. Being angry is so easy, isn't it? Anyone can be angry. I promise you. Your heart is gold. Ajumma can see that since the first time I saw you. Promise ajumma to at least try to have that courage.'

Those words gave Jimin comfort. It's like his body is floating in the air because the energy of the words give Jimin the ability to fly, but the weather in the sky is kind of cold?

The small body squeezes himself to something close to him. The familiar touch makes Jimin who's half asleep realizes that it's not something holding him. It's someone.

Blinking his eyes, Jimin also inhales the familiar scent right in front of his nose. The comfort from dreaming of that ajumma is still on his body. Was it from ajumma or Jungkook? He knows exactly who it is that's cuddling him right now. How can Jimin forget the touch he's been craving for? The pain he's feeling in his head is heavy. He wasn't even that drunk, and he's having a hangover?

Jimin tries to remove Jungkook's strong hands on his waist, but he fails. Jungkook is like this. Always holding him tight even when he's in his deep slumber.

Tilting his head up, Jimin looks at the handsome face whose cheek has been pressing against his forehead. Jimin moves his head backward. Jungkook is not sleeping. He's looking at Jimin. Their eyes meet. Due to the comfort he felt in his dream, it's like he's in some sort of trance. He's in Jungkook's embrace. This can be a dream. A sweet dream where nothing terrible happens to them. A sweet dream that Jungkook never disappeared. A dream that Jungkook is really that hero, riding on that white horse to save him.
