-S.O.S-

Chapter 1: Persuaded

Darkness surrounded every single inch of Jungkooks room, as the sound of cold, heavy rain poured down on his front windows, hitting the glass sharply, yet so gently. The streets were busy, and the lights from below illuminated the huge city of New York.

The murmuring and pleasing sound of the rain helped the raven haired to settle his disrupted mind and ease it at the same time, not wanting to move from his spot on the wooden plated floor, where he leaned back against the side of his bed. Moments like these were the only ones that helped the boy to reconnect, but relive the hell he went through four years ago.

Jungkook stared down at his thighs, where he held a slightly scrambled, and torn picture of his 18 year old self and his father. Whenever he bothered or gained the strength to pull the picture out, his mind flew in different directions. It made him rethink about his past and the possibilities he could have acted upon to fix some of the things he can't undo anymore.

A soft knock was heard on his door, and a calm voice followed right after.

"Jungkook, can I come in?", it was Jungkooks cousin, Namjoon.

"Sure", He answered quietly, not bothering to raise his voice for the other to hear, knowing damn well, that Namjoon will step in to check on him anyway.

Namjoon gently pushed the door open, and stepped inside the room, not closing the door behind him as his eyes aimed at his once again hopeless cousin, sitting on the ground. Sighing to himself, he took a few steps closer, crossing his arms before speaking.

"All good?"

"Yeah. Perfect."

Namjoon brushed Jungkooks sarcasm away, knowing that he has no right to get mad, since this day was one of the days where his little cousin suffered the most out of every year. The day his father died in a tragic accident.

Silence engulfed in the room. Jungkook kept his head low, not prying his gaze away from the picture, while Namjoon kept staring at the raven haired.

"Jiyeon called."

No answer. As expected. Namjoon knew that Jungkook hated hearing his mothers name more than anything, but no matter how much he tried to persuade Jungkook to reason with the only parent he had left, he never bothered to even put a thought to it.

Namjoon understands Jungkooks pain, and why he has such hatred towards his biological mother, but sometimes he feels as if he's overdoing it too much.

(Backstory:)
Jungkooks mother, Jiyeon, was busy from the begging of his childhood, with her multimillion fashion brand, while his father on the other hand, Sunguk, was an Air Force pilot. It would've seemed impossible for Jungkooks parents to find free time for their son, due to their important and busy lifestyles, but regardless, Sunguk always found a way to spend some time with him. He found ways to bring him on his training days to show him and teach him how to pilot an F-16, and later on when he got slightly older, to even fly one. Jungkook is no pro, but he'd manage to fly an aircraft if it was necessary.

Jungkooks parents never divorced, and despite their poor relationship, he always took his fathers side. Jiyeon loves her son to this day, but her behavior and personality has not changed whatsoever. Her business was located in her hometown, Seoul. So she flew to South Korea quite often and stayed there for long periods of time, while her son stayed in America, motherless. Work and duties were her number one priority, while Jungkook sat always behind, wanting her attention. She did spend a lot of money on him, without him even asking for it. "Time' and 'love', were the only two things he craved from her, but never got.

Jungkook later on found out that his mother was cheating on her husband, catching her in action as he demanded a good reason to why she has done so, she replied, stating:
