ＥＬＥＶＥＮ 🌙

Taehyung was peacefully munching on his Mukbang, which he had brought with himself after coming from work, while watching TV. It was a rare moment of relaxation for him, indulging in his favorite food while enjoying his favorite show.

Suddenly, his phone buzzed, claiming his attention. He frowned as he saw the caller ID displaying ' My little birdie 🐣 '. Taehyung was surprised to receive a call from his best friend at this hour, but he quickly answered it.

“Hello?”

“T-tae...” Jimin's voice cracked and Taehyung immediately knew something was wrong.

As he heard Jimin's sob-filled voice, concern flooded over him, causing him to stand up from his spot, Mukbang forgotten.

“J-jimin! Jimin! What happened? Where are you?” he asked urgently, his voice filled with worry.

“I'm... I'm...” Jimin stuttered, the words caught in his throat as he broke down.

Taehyung's heart ached at the sound of Jimin's pain. Without wasting another second, he reassured him, “Jimin! Where are you? Tell me, I'm coming”

“I'm at... at the park,” Jimin managed to say through his sobs.

“Which park?” Taehyung pressed, trying to get a more specific location.

“D-don't know... there're just... t-trees everywhere...” Jimin's voice trembled.

“Don't worry, Jimin! Hang on there. I'm coming in a few minutes,” Taehyung promised, concern lacing his words as he hung up. He hastily grabbed his coat, car keys, and wallet before rushing out of the house.

He drove straight to the park near Jungkook's house, knowing that Jimin loved to visit there. As he parked the car and made his way into the park, his heartbeat quickened with each step, anticipation and worry mingling in his mind.

And then he spotted him. Jimin, sitting on a bench, shoulders shaking with sobs. Taehyung's heart sank, seeing his best friend in such a vulnerable state. He paced towards Jimin, his steps filled with urgency and determination. Kneeling down in front of Jimin, Taehyung gently took his cold hands in his own.

“Jimin! Baby! What happened? Tell me?” he pleaded, desperation lacing his voice.

Jimin remained silent, tears streaming down his face, unable to find the strength to voice his pain. And after seeing taehyung, he lost control, so started to sob more badly.

“I-I'm sorry, I'm sorry.. whatever it is.. I'm sorry” Taehyung pleadingly apologized to Jimin, for the mistake, he hasn't even made. For now, he just wanted Jimin to stop crying, as it ached his heart.

“J-jungkook... ”

“Yes, Jungkook! what did he do?” Taehyung asked, furiously, feeling his own anger simmering beneath the surface.

“J-jungkook... h-he c-cheated on m-me.. h-he said h-he doesn't l-love me anymore... ” Jimin's voice quivered as he confessed.

That asshole, Taehyung's anger flared, his fist clenching involuntarily. He vowed silently to teach Jungkook a lesson for causing his best friend such pain. But for now, all that mattered was Jimin. So, he gently helped Jimin up, guiding him towards his car.

As Taehyung drove, Jimin cried bitterly, refusing to eat or drink anything. But with patience and love, Taehyung managed to coax him into eating a little, ensuring that he was taken care of.

Finally, back at Taehyung's house, he settled Jimin onto his bed, making sure he was comfortable. The room was filled with a heavy silence as Taehyung made his way to the couch, sinking into it.
