[Park Jimin] ~Protect Me~ ||Short Series|| ✅

~ Episode 7 ~

~~~Y/N's P.O.V~~~

The darkness pulled me back to the same place. Birds were now chirping everywhere, and the colors of the flowers were brighter than before.

Suddenly, the clouds parted, and a bright flash of light shone onto me. My eyes were going to go blind by it, and I used my hands to block it. Just like how it suddenly came, the bright light was gone, and I was able to see again but this time round, when I opened my eyes, I saw a figure hovering over with a spotlight. The figure removed the spotlight from my sight, and I saw an unfamiliar face in front of me.

Dr. Kim: "Hi Y/N, I am your appointed doctor, Dr. Kim." The man smiled warmly and spoke. He asked me a series of questions such as my full name, my school, the date. Apparently, I answered everything correctly as I could see from the way he smiled.

Dr. Kim: "Alright, you must be tired from answering so many questions. Have a good rest and I will come later to check on your condition again." He left after scribbling something on a sheet of paper which was located at the end of the bed.

I let out a small shriek as I did not notice Jimin sitting on the couch located at the wall until the doctor left. He looked tired as there were dark circles under his eyes and his hair was tousled.

Jimin: "Are you feeling okay?" He let out a small smile. I nodded shyly and he proceeded on with his asking.

Jimin: "Do you remember anything?" All the memories came rushing back at me as I remembered Auntie Eunchae strangling me. I whimpered at that memory and Jimin was by my side in an instant. He was holding onto my hand gently and tucking a strand of hair behind my ear.

Y/N: "Where is my aunt?"

Jimin: "She is under probation." He replied with fury in his eyes.

Y/N: "Why is she under probation? It was all my fault as I have angered her. Please help me remove all the charges on her! Please, Jimin!" I cried out.

Jimin: "She should not have hit you! What did you do wrong to deserve such a beating?! This is abuse!" Jimin yelled out. I shrunk back at his outburst, and he saw it.

Jimin: "I will not lay my hand on you, Y/N. No matter how angry I am." His eyes softened down but he was still angry from the way he clenched his hands.

Jimin: "You must testify against your aunt, Y/N. You are not going to suffer from any abuse under my care." He said calmly.

Y/N: "No...." I whimpered in reply and looked at him, teary-eyed.

Jimin: "Even if you do not want, I have evidence of her corrupted ways as well. I have asked my father to check on her and we realised that she has been taking sums of money from the company." He said firmly. I begged him to let the matter go but he was bent on seeing my aunt received her due punishment.

I felt helpless and useless for not being able to help my aunt. Although she abused me, she did raise me up over these years. If she has not adopted me, I might have died in the orphanage. Jimin wanted none of these explanations.

At that moment, Doyoung came in and he said he wanted some alone time with me. Jimin glared at him, but he did leave the room.

Doyoung: "How are you feeling?" He asked gently. I nodded.

Y/N: "So you know all about it?" He nodded.

Doyoung: "I will support you no matter what your decision is."

I still chose not to testify against her but with the evidence of her corruption, she was given a twenty-year jail sentence. When I knew it, I could not help but felt sad.
