HIDDEN LOVE || JK×JM✅

41.Jimin's Attempt

The room fell into an oppressive silence, as if the weight of their conflicting emotions had materialized and settled upon their shoulders. Jimin's tears flowed relentlessly down his face, each sob wracking his body with an intensity that mirrored the turmoil in his heart. He had held onto a glimmer of hope, a flicker of possibility that this confrontation would bring them closer, that he could finally muster the courage to propose to Jungkook, solidifying their love and sealing their fate as a couple. But now, as the reality of their shattered dreams hung in the air, the pain etched deep within Jimin's soul seemed unbearable.

Jungkook's usually impassive expression softened ever so slightly as he beheld the sight of Jimin's anguished state. His heart, though guarded, couldn't help but ache in response to the raw torment before him. He mustered the courage to utter the words that had hung heavy on his tongue, his voice laced with a mix of confusion and concern.

"May I know why in the world you're shedding tears in front of me?" Jungkook's question quivered with a blend of frustration and genuine curiosity, his own emotions threatening to engulf him.

Jimin, who had been weeping uncontrollably, finally met Jungkook's gaze, his eyes filled with a mixture of despair and disgust. The pain he felt radiated from him like a tangible force, his tears a testament to the depth of his heartache.

"Don't you even have a shred of remorse for my suffering?" Jimin's voice wavered, laced with bitterness. "And for your information,This is my home, Jungkook, and I have every right to cry wherever I damn well please."

A flicker of remorse danced across Jungkook's features, his heart softening ever so slightly as he recognized the depth of Jimin's anguish. "Why should I feel sorry for you?" he responded, his voice tinged with a mixture of confusion and defensiveness. "And for that matter, what significance do I hold in your life to demand that you refrain from shedding tears? Moreover, let's not forget that this is my home too. I could easily lodge a complaint against you for threatening me and attempting to lay claim to my assets."

Jimin's tears continued to cascade down his face, mingling with the searing pain that now filled his chest. He tried in vain to wipe away the evidence of his despair, but his efforts were futile, his heart shattered by the callousness of Jungkook's words.

A tense silence hung heavily between them, an unspoken battlefield of emotions that neither dared to breach. The weight of their pain and confusion threatened to suffocate them, leaving them stranded in a void of unspoken words and shattered dreams.

Jungkook rose from his seat, his intention to leave palpable in the air. But before he could make his escape, Jimin, consumed by a surge of desperation, lashed out and grabbed hold of Jungkook's collar, his fingers trembling with a mixture of anger and despair.

"Where the hell do you think you're going?" Jimin's voice cracked with a mixture of fury and anguish. "We're in the midst of a fight, and if we're going to do this, then let's do it properly."

Jungkook, startled by the sudden outburst, turned to face Jimin, his eyes reflecting a mixture of surprise and resignation. "Fine," he announced, his voice heavy with resignation. "Let's fight."

Jimin's voice quivered as he implored Jungkook, his eyes pleading for understanding amidst the turmoil. "Why are you treating me so cruelly? Why now? What have I done to deserve this?" His voice trembled with a mixture of confusion and heartbreak.

Jungkook took a deep breath, his voice strained as he began to unveil the layers of his own pain. "I've searched for you everywhere," he started, his voice tinged with a hint of desperation. "But you, where have you been? Can't you even spare a thought for me, Jimin? I don't have a problem with you spending time with others, but I just want to be informed. And for your knowledge, you've been doing the same for months. You never cared about me, never bothered to keep me in the loop. Tell me, Jimin, what if I were to do the same? Would you forgive me if I spent the night with Sweety?"
