That Damn Cheater

Chapter 13

JIMIN'S POV

Standing not so far from Namjoon hyung and Su-eon's table , I could hear them talking or, precisely, her sobbing.

"How do you wish to go further?"

My eyes purred, hearing Namjoon say so. Just what is he trying to suggest there ?

Hurriedly, I took some steps before that practical hoss said something not so rational.

"Hyung, you called me ?" I interrupted.

"Yeah , please settle down."
He replied curtly and shifted his gaze back on petrified Su-eon's slumped figure.

"Su-eon, have you tried talking to him? What do you feel from his words ? Is he faking it, or is he really ashamed of his act? Do you know his side of the story ?" Namjoon said.

Surprisingly , I felt his words harsh, but this might help us get hold of the situation. We need to reconcile them .

"I'm not taking Jungkook's side . But are you aware of how he has spent his days since then? He didn't show up in the office,  no calls, no text, nothing . He just cut himself off from the world . Only to end up here in a suicidal state . From what I heard, I state he is wrong. He wronged you . I know that. But please try him out . Ask him, punish him , whatever.  Just don't let him die . Please. "

With a rather emotional expression on his face, Namjoon left his chair and moved to the balcony , leaving me and a breathstuck Su-eon behind.

Unable to choose the right words, I sat quietly beside her .

"Su-eon,  I'm sorry things are unfolding this way , so please gather yourself.  "

Su-eon sniffed a bit and wiped her tear wrenched face.
All of this is truly heartbreaking.

"Don't take Namjoon hyungs word for bad . He is worried for you both, but the condition in which Jungkook is, I'm sure hyung is scared to lose Jungkook this way ."

I waited to have her words, but nothing came out .
"Please say something. Anything, but please."

A shriveled and hoarse voice replied, 
"What shall I say , I myself am demented, so what do I talk to Jungkook? The way he looked at me in there, I-I couldn't help but feel my heart harrow over his state."

Hearing Su-eon's pained cry, which wheezed along her shallow words, attracted Namjoon hyungs attention.

"I want to hate him, but I also want to forgive him . I just don't know what to feel  . When I look at him, one time, I see his guilt filled eyes, and then the very next moment, it shovels his tarnished images of that day in front of me. I just hate the way we are today. I hate myself for being so indecisive, I hate him for ruining us . I just , I just want to rewind back in time where none of this existed. "

"Then you should talk it out with him," Namjoon interjected.

With that sudden gush of anger, she approached him, baring.

"You sure talk of him being in pain, but what about me ? Did I love him any less ?My love and pain are nothing, right ?
All this time, where am I ? How am I ? Was I anywhere in your mind?" She directed those peircing words toward Namjoon.

None of us breathed a word.

Suddenly, she marched outside the area.

Stunned by her sudden outburst , we hurriedly followed her  only to find her in front of Jungkook's room.

"Su-eon," Jimin called almost like a whisper.

Before we can speak any further , she swung the door open, blasting in the room .

SU-EON'S POV

Rampant sound of my own heart resonating in my ear . Every step I took felt heavy .
Head filled with agonizing thoughts and harsh and brutal words all I wanted to throw at his face .
Yet a passive vision of him lying on that lifeless bed with guilt felt eyes.

I felt myself preparing to enter that dead room to face him . To give him his share of pain .

But do I really want to hurt him ?Haven't I sworn to protect him from all the bad of the world.

Amidst faint steps approaching , I could hear Jimin calling me.

Shaking my head, I shoved these thoughts away and entered the room with a bash .
