Jimin Protectors ' Book 1 '

Chapter 82 '✅'

Jimin's POV:

I woke up early before Omma woke me up. I need to prepare the strawberries now. Are there some in the fridge, or do I need to ask Appa to pass by the grocery store before school?

I still sleep in my Omma's arms. Should I just grow up? I need to start sleeping in my room. What if she finds out that I still sleep with my parents? She will think I'm still a spoiled kid.

This is the last time - starting from tonight I will sleep in my room.

So is this the last time I'm waking up between them? Should I just start next week? I love the warmth I get from them in the middle of the night. I don't have nightmares though.

I will just start next week. Ara is not talking to me - how can she know?

I kissed my sleeping Omma but not my Appa . He doesn't like anyone interrupting his sleep.

I ran out to my room to do my morning routine and then headed to the kitchen.

Jimin: "Wow, it's still fresh. Should I shape it as a heart ❤️, or give it to her with a flower?"

I prepared a box full of strawberries shaped as hearts, but I don't know where I can get a flower.

IU: "Wow, is my little Chim awake already? What is happening on earth?"

Jimin: "Omma ... I was preparing something so I need to wake up early."

IU: "What are you preparing?" I hid the box behind my back.

Jimin: "It's a secret between me and Taehyung hyung. I can't tell." She ruffled my hair.

That's the rule - if I want to keep a secret, I need to share it with one of my hyungs or with Omma, and the one I share it with will never tell anyone until I myself want to reveal it.

But I can't keep secrets by myself. Appa said I can when I grow up some more, so I know when it's dangerous.

But I think I will never hide anything by myself. I need their opinion. I need to share to feel that I'm not alone, to know if I'm wrong.. To not be lost with my overthink .. it's scary ..

Jungkook's POV:

Jungkook: "I have an important event that day. I will not be able to attend the practice." I told the girl who is organizing the schedule of our practice.

Seo Joon: "Jungkook, you can't do this. The performance will be the day after that day. You need to attend the practice." I know she is right, but I will never skip Jimin's audition.

Jungkook: "Double the practice the day before, but I won't skip my event." She got angry .. as always

Seo Joon: "Yaaa... Kook, you are acting irresponsible. This is your future." She is one of the employees who I have a special relationship with - not love or hate. I just love bothering her, and she gets bothered easily.. She knows how to take care of me though ..

Jungkook: "Thanks for your compliments . see yaa" Then I headed to the practice room, leaving her burning in her anger.

Author's POV:

The day came and Jimin was dead nervous. He practiced a dance with Taemin to perform together in the audition. He knew if Taemin didn't get accepted, he would not join even if he got accepted.

Jin: "You can do this, Jiminie. You worked hard, so just this final step and I know you will pass."

Jimin's hands were sweating, so he kept wiping them on his pants. J-hope held them to relax him.

J-hope: "Hey, just focus on us when you are on the stage. Don't look anywhere else. Think that we are the only audience there "

IU was hugging him from behind and Yoongi was nervously sitting on the couch, trying not to show how nervous he was. He didn't want Jimin to get hurt. What if someone said hurtful words to him? What if he failed ! What if he fell and got hurt !! Yoongi hyung is acting like a mother more than IU herself ...

Namjoon knew how Yoongi was thinking, so he sat beside him to calm him down.

Namjoon : "He will be okay. Don't think too much."

Jimin: "Why isn't Kookie hyung here yet? Is he not coming?" Jimin started to panic as Jungkook left early in the morning and he didn't leave any notes about where he was, and he wasn't picking up his phone.

Taehyung: "Don't worry, he promised he will attend today. Trust him."

They helped Jimin with his makeup and dressed him up.

It was just 5 minutes until his turn.

Jungkook: "I'm so sorry, Jimin. I didn't mean to be late, but the traffic was bad." Jungkook ran into the backstage room.

Jimin ran, hugging him.

Jimin: "I thought you wouldn't come." He patted his back.

Jungkook: "No, little one, I promised you. Now don't think, just focus. I trust you, and you, Taemin - you both can do this. Go and kill it " He patted Taemin's head to encourage him.

Taemin: "Thank you, hyung. Let's go, Minmin. They are calling our names."

****

The stage was totally on fire. Both were nervously walking onto the stage, looking down, holding the mic with shaking hands, introducing their names.

The moment the music played, the nervousness was far away. The judges were impressed by their performance.

Jimin and Taemin were beyond cloud nine, and they were running to the backstage room when someone put his leg in Jimin's way to trip him, making him fall hard on the ground, groaning in pain.

Taemin: "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?" Taemin looked at the boy who did this angrily.

Chul: "Oops, sorry, but I felt like he is too full of himself, so he just needs to know his place." Taemin was about to grab the boy by his collar when he stayed still like a statue in front of the scene that happened.

Ara delivered a Taekwondo kick to Chul that knocked him flat on the ground, causing him to groan in pain.

Ara: "Don't ever think of hurting him again."
