Chapter 26: Jeonguk's Tragic Past

No one POV:

Jeonguk's eyes gazed into the darkness, his mind wandering back to the memories he had long suppressed. Growing up, he had always felt like he was living in Jungkook's shadow. Their parents had always favored Jungkook, the golden child, while Jeonguk was left to suffer in silence.

"Jeonguk, why can't you be more like your brother?" his mother would say, her voice laced with disappointment.

"He's just better than you, Jeonguk," his father would add, his words piercing like a knife.
(A/n :bish stfu or I'll kill you)

Jeonguk's heart ached as he remembered the countless times he had tried to gain their approval, only to be rejected. He was never good enough.

But then, one day, he saw Taehyung. The photographer's kind smile and gentle eyes drew Jeonguk in, and for the first time in his life, he felt a sense of hope.

"Maybe this person will finally see me," Jeonguk thought, his heart racing with excitement.

But as he watched Taehyung and Jungkook grow closer, Jeonguk's hope turned to despair. He realized that Taehyung would never love him back, that he was just a shadow in the background, invisible and unwanted.

"Why can't they see me?" Jeonguk cried out in his mind, his heart shattering into a million pieces.

As the years went by, Jeonguk's obsession with Taehyung grew, fueled by his own feelings of inadequacy and rejection. He became convinced that if he couldn't have Taehyung's love, no one else could either.

And so, the darkness consumed him, driving him to commit unspeakable acts of violence and terror.

"I'll show them all," Jeonguk thought, his mind twisted with rage and hurt. "I'll show them that I exist, that I matter."

But deep down, Jeonguk knew it was all a lie. He was still that lost, hurting child, desperate for love and acceptance.

Jeonguk's eyes welled up with tears as he remembered the day he realized Taehyung would never love him back. He had been watching Taehyung and Jungkook from afar, his heart aching with longing.

"Why can't they see me?" Jeonguk whispered, his voice cracking with emotion. "Why can't they love me?"

He thought of all the times he had tried to get Taehyung's attention, all the times he had been ignored or rejected. The pain and hurt boiled over, and Jeonguk's body shook with sobs.

He fell to his knees, his head in his hands, and wept uncontrollably. For the first time, he allowed himself to feel the depth of his sorrow, the weight of his unrequited love.

As he cried, Jeonguk's mind flashed back to his childhood, to the moments when his parents had made him feel worthless and unloved. He realized that his obsession with Taehyung was never really about Taehyung at all, but about the love and validation he had always been denied.

"Oh, Taehyung," Jeonguk whispered, his voice barely audible. "I'm so sorry. I was so blinded by my own pain, I didn't see the hurt I was causing."

Jeonguk's tears fell like rain, washing away the anger and bitterness that had consumed him for so long. For the first time, he saw the truth: that his love for Taehyung was never meant to be, and that he had been living in a dream world of his own creation.

As the tears finally began to subside, Jeonguk felt a sense of peace wash over him. He knew he still had a long road ahead, but for the first time in his life, he felt free from the chains of his own making.

As Jeonguk finally found the strength to stand, he knew he had to face the consequences of his actions. He couldn't undo the harm he had caused, but he could try to make amends.

With a heavy heart, Jeonguk turned himself in to the police, confessing to all the crimes he had committed. As he sat in his cell, waiting for his trial, he began to write a letter to Taehyung.

"Dear Taehyung," he wrote, his hand shaking with emotion. "I'm so sorry for everything I've done. I was blinded by my own pain and I hurt the one person I loved the most. I know I can never undo the harm, but I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me."

As he finished writing, Jeonguk felt a sense of peace wash over him. He knew he would spend the rest of his life making amends, but for the first time, he felt free from the darkness that had consumed him for so long.

The day of the trial arrived, and Jeonguk stood before the judge, his eyes cast down in shame. Taehyung was there, his eyes filled with a mix of sadness and forgiveness.

Jeonguk was sentenced to life in prison, but as he was led away in handcuffs, he felt a sense of hope. He knew he would spend the rest of his life in prison, but he also knew he had finally found the strength to face his demons and make amends.

As the doors closed behind him, Jeonguk whispered a final apology to Taehyung, his voice barely audible. "I'm so sorry, 𝗽𝘂𝗽. I love you."
