Apartment 14 B | Jikook•

Chapter 16

Where was he even supposed to go? What was he supposed to do? Why did his friends hide such an information from him? Why didn't they notify him when they actually found out about the two of them? why didn't they tell him everything?

He got off the lift in the parking and stomped his foot towards his car, once he got in, he just drove off. He had no clue, where he would go, neither did he have any clue as to who will he got to.

What is a person supposed to do when everyone he trusted with his life just simply...lied. He didn't know if it was because of their stupid fucking motives or if it was for his own good. And right now...he didn't care. He just simply went to his penthouse and decided to sleep so that he wont take any irrational decisions. Once he entered the apartment he saw all his staff still working, as instructed. He just simply told them to take off to their respective houses and not come for the next few days.

" But s-sir, is there something that we did wrong? During the par-rty, did something h-happen?" One of the wait-staff asked him. He didn't want to answer them so he just simply walked off towards his bedroom.

"S-sir,Sir...SIR" came a feeble voice from behind him. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU GUYS WANT? Don't you guys see there is something wrong? Why cant you just take a hint and FUCK OFF. And you..." he said pointing to the lady pestering him, "Don't bother coming back, you will be given this months salary and I don't need your slimy ass back in my house."

The woman was seen visibly crying and the other helpers took her away along with them. He then remembered all the booze he had bought for his "so-called friends" so he whisked himself away from the bed and picked up a carton of beer from the liquor fridge. He then took out a bottle and switched on the tv.

He knew his phone was blowing up with messages and calls, there were missed calls from everyone. Namjoon, Jimin, Jin, Hoseok and even Yoongi had texted him. He knew Taehyung would just rush here the moment he found out. He doesn't even care if Taehyung breaks his door today if he comes but Jungkook fucking trusted him as well.

There were a lot of things going on in his mind. What would he do tomorrow? Should he just take a few days of leave, or should he just work from home? But, he had no energy to keep working after everything. Most importantly, what would he do about Jimin? That boy has been calling him for the 20th time now. It was frankly getting on Jungkook's nerves so instead of attending those pending calls, he switched off his phone and diverted his attention to the movie playing on his television.

After finishing the carton all by himself he finally felt drowsy enough to forget about everything and drifted off to sleep on his couch, in the clothes he was wearing, with thought of a certain brunet boy in his mind.

Jimin, on the other hand was fucking stressed. He had no clue where Kook had just left and after calling him and texting him, when he heard the outgoing being unavailable, he knew he had either been blocked or Jungkook had switched off his phone.

This wasn't how he had dreamt of his day going. They had finally had a break from their respective jobs and their friends had popped over, it was supposed to be a day that ended with them being happy in each other embrace and around people they loved.

Jimin hadn't stopped crying since the moment Jungkook had left. Eventhough, everyone urged him to calm down, he couldn't. How could he? When he doesn't know where the love of his life had just gone away...

"Min, I think you should have something. You haven't eaten since afternoon, you wont have any energy." Hope worded his tension.

" I'm fine Hobi hyung. I just need some alone time right now." He looked at everyone else, " Thank you guys for coming and being with me, but I think you should get going. I will be fine and I know you guys need to get home safely as well."

All of them knew that he just wanted to be left along, but Hobi being Hobi, he told everyone that he would stay with Jimin and if he needed anything, Hobi would provide it for him. Namjoon on the other hand was getting tensed for his dongsaeng.

He just needed to know if Jungkook was safe. He knew Jungkook's secretary Rita, so finding out where that idiot is wasn't going to be a task, atleast.

He called her up and asked for his location, she made sure to be quick about it and call ended. While the rest of the members were pacing around the building just hoping that all of this would come to an end soon, Namjoon had already figured out that Jungkook was hiding in his own home.

Making up an excuse and leaving Jin and Ara in safe hands, he headed for Jungkook's apartment. After all, Jungkook was the only one that Namjoon treated always like a younger brother. He still remembers  every moment that the younger spent with him and he would cherish it for a lifetime. Jungkook was like his first child.

Everytime he would have issues, he would run to his Joonie hyung, the first time he had ever had a huge dispute with his father, he had headed straight to his Joonie hyung. Namjoon knew his place in Jungkook's life and never would have thought it would be altered. But, fate decided the place of someone, it always has and it always will.

Once he reached Jungkook's place he was immediately let in. He knew the guards and he was aware about Kook's passcode as well. So entering swiftly was not an issue. But once he entered, his heart broke.

Curled up in a tiny ball, Jungkook was sleeping on the couch feeling visibly cold and about 7 bottles of beer lying all around him. One bottle was shattered and he could see dried blood in his younger brother's hands. He couldn't bare seeing that so he quickly dashed towards the younger and started aiding for him. He fixed some bandages in the younger's hands and then proceeded to keep the bottles away from, so he wouldn't hurt himself again.

Once that was done he began tidying up the place. His back was facing Jungkook, so he didn't notice when Jungkook had woken up and was now furiously walking towards the elder.

"I need you to get out of my house." Jungkook said with authority and venom dripping from his tone.

" I will once I know you are safe and sound in your bed." Namjoon said in a calm voice.

" You don't OWN THE RIGHTS to order me around, now GET. OUT. OF. MY. HOUSE." After every emphasis Jungkook was walking towards Namjoon with anger in his eyes. "Everytime, I did something wrong, I came to you, everytime I wanted help I came to you. Who the fuck am I supposed to go to NOW, when you were the one who did me wrong? When you were the one I wanted help from?" Jungkook was pointing at Namjoon's chest with each question.

"Look Kook, I did everything I could in my power to make it right the last time a situation like this had occurred. But, you need to understand we were only doing what was good for you." Jungkook scoffed.

In a mocking tone Jungkook repeated, " What was good for you? How much time will it take for you to understand that YOU don't need to take decisions for me. I just need your help sometimes, it doesn't mean you need to lead my life decisions." now Jungkook was sighing loudly

" Before I call the cops, can you please just leave? I will be fine." Namjoon had nothing to say to this, after everything he knew if he stayed here longer, it would lead to bigger issues and he had to go home.

" Before I leave Kook, I just need you to know. Do not base your judgement with whatever you heard while eavesdropping. There are 2 sides to every story and you just know one. Although I cant help you with the other half of your story but you need to figure it out for yourself." With that Joon left Jungkook's place, leaving him in a state of confusion and betrayal.
