Save me

Ep 6

"Here, Jungkook... These are his meds... And make sure he has his watch monitoring his heart health all the times... The oxygen mask is inside... Make sure to take him with you whenever you want to go out for the supplies... He can't be left alone, even for a minute...okay?

You can call hyungie whenever you need help..."

Jin advised Jungkook about Jimin's health and on how to take care of him... 

Both of them are currently on the couch, sitting beside all the luggages of Jin and Namjoon... Namjoon was making sure they packed whatever they wanted and looked around for anything else they might need...

Jimin sat around the corner of the home, listening to all those advised Jin gave to jungkook, still not ready to let go of his Hyung... Meanwhile Jungkook listened to each and every word of his hyung carefully, and just nodded to whatever his hyung said...

Jin noticed Jimin in the corner staring at them, and said "Jimin-ah... can I have a word with you..?"

Jimin just silently got up, and went to one of the rooms with Jin... Jin started speaking

"Jiminie-ah... Speak to hyung..."

"I-I am...afraid hyungie..."

"afraid of what, little one?"

"of you, not returning...Of jungkook-sunbae...Everything..."

Jimin said as he felt his heart ache, but he didn't show it to his hyung...

"You don't need to be afraid of Jungkookie, dear... He is the softest person you will ever know... Only because I left him, and took him away from his...our parents, he became so cold to everyone... It was his defence, Kind of a thing...

But overall,  he is so sweet, vulnerable and caring... Can you try to get along with him..? Can you make him comfortable with you and make yourself comfortable with him..? for hyungie, please?"

He said as Jimin just nodded and Jin continued

"As far as I and Namjoon, we have all kind of defence equipments and once we reach the lab, we will be safe... We travel in our biggest camper van for our safety... don't worry and focus on keeping yourself and my brother safe, huh?"

"d-don't forget...your promise, hyungie..."

He said as Jin said 'I won't' And gave the younger a bone crushing hug....

They both went outside and Jin called out to Namjoon and said " Ready to go.."

"hyung..." Jungkook called out to Jin as Jin just came and gave him a tight hug and said

"Bye, Jungkookie... take care"

"Y-You... Take care, hyung..." he said as he let few of his tears fall... They both pulled out of the hug and Namjoo said

"Bye guys... Take care 'kay?"

"Bye, Namjoon hyung..." Jungkook said as he gave him a hug too...

"Come here, Jimin-ah" Namjoon called out to Jimin as he joined Jimin in that hug too...

As Jin and Namjoon left, Jimin and Jungkook were alone in that apartment, With an awkward silence...

Jimin was looking at Jungkook, whose tears now dried, but his eyes look so vulnerable and teary... He watched Jungkook wipe his tears and go to their shared room without any words...

Jimin, who was hiding the fact that his heart was aching all along, Pushed himself on the sofa, clutching his chest tightly... This is normal, in case of Jimin... His heart aches a lot everyday, and he has to deal with it, without complaining...

Jimin sat there, and looked at the closed door of their room... He somehow wanted to make Jungkook feel better... He remembered Jin's words and tried to get rid of his fear of Jungkook, who bullies him...

He got up, still holding his chest, and went into the kitchen... He wanted to make something for the older to eat, so that he will feel better...

He looked into the cupboard, and saw what ingredients they have, and decided to make sangyeopsal for the older...

As Jimin was by himself for most of the time as far as he could remember, he learnt how to cook and do all the chores by himself, not wanting to depend on anyone...

He followed the recipe that Jin once taught him, and made the food for Jungkook...

He swiftly went upstairs and gently knocked the door twice...

The door opened, revealing a jungkook, who looked as if he was crying all this time, and just stopped himself from crying as he heard the knock... Jimin didn't realise that he was just staring at the older with a pained expression all this time, until Jungkook moved out of the way and signalled him to come in...

He went in and placed the food on the table/desk and said

"I...thought you should eat..." Avoiding eye contact with the older...

Jungkook just looked at Jimin with soft eyes... He wasn't expecting this from the younger... He thought Jimin would avoid him at all cost, as he was afraid of him...

He opened the cover plate, as the saw sangyeopsal, his eyes grew wide and mouth started watering... Jungkook took the plate and fork and cut the meat and ate the food...

The food was so delicious that Jungkook can't stop eating it... Without even saying anything to Jimin, he started attacking the food... Jimin just stared at the older... He was confused if Jungkook is eating it silently without saying anything cause he is mad at Jimin or is it because the food is bad...

Only after eating at least half of the plate, he turned to Jimin and said

"It's tasty...Thanks.."

Jimin nodded at him, a tint of relief taking over him, Just cause he came to know that Jungkook is not totally against the younger...

Jimin was about to walk out, but Jungkook stopped him with a small 'hey'. Jimin nervously turned around as Jungkook asked

"did you eat..?"

Jimin replied "no...I'm not hungry..." 

Well, that totally not a lie...But not entirely the truth either... Usually when Jimin has chest pains, He just won't feel like eating at all... The discomfort in his chest annoys and disturbs him that he won't even have appetite...

Jungkook replied, a little sternly

"You should eat, Jimin"

"Sunbae... I will eat... Just not now... Please..."

"Jimin-ah... You need to take your meds, remember..?"

Jimin just looked at Jungkook, with a 'why are you doing this to me?' face as Jungkook patted the bed as action of 'come, sit.'

Jimin obeyed the older, as the older cut out a piece of sangyeopsal and put it in front of Jimin's mouth...

Jimin opened his mouth to say something in refusal, but Jungkook just fed him, knowing that the younger was about to refuse... He fed Jimin a little bit, as the younger said

"I'm full..."

Jungkook was about to protest on how little the younger ate, but decided to shrug it off, for now... Jungkook thought maybe cause Jimin's upset that the hyungs are on dangerous mission, he just doesn't want to eat...

As they were both done eating, Jungkook took the empty dishes and went out, leaving behind a confused Jimin who is literally thinking

'

Is this man, a bipolar..?'
