Jimin Protectors ' Book 1 '

Chapter 112 '✅'

Jungkook's POV:

He locked his door for 2 days. I'm losing my mind. I'm trying to give him the space he needs, but I can't stop my mind from imagining horrible scenarios. I need to be sure he's okay. He replied when I threatened him that I would break his door, so he really sends an image of his emotionless face every 3 hours. That made me worry more. He's not fine.

Being alone when he's in this state is not good. He didn't eat any meal for 2 days, and if I let him continue with what he's doing, he would die of dehydration. I don't know if his little fridge has water or not, and if it does, will he remember to drink?

My hyungs are asking me to let him be. They're worried too. Namjoon hyung didn't say a word about this matter, but they're afraid if we handle him aggressively by forcing him out, he will get worse.

Jimin's secret is not a secret anymore. He keeps talking about the doctor Jin hyung told him about, and how he can be fine again. We all know that Jimin was struggling. It was not a secret or something not noticeable, but we didn't know he has the same reaction to physical touch with a girl as Tae. Tae is worse, but it makes sense.

Jimin is blaming us for not helping Tae before. He keeps asking why we didn't take Tae to the doctor. The kid is trying to convince us that Tae is struggling. We all couldn't share with him that Tae is the one who doesn't agree to go through this. What if he got scared too?

He's not leaving Tae's door. He tried to knock and asked him hundreds of times to open the door. I wonder how Tae kept his door closed with all this nagging.

But it's enough. He needs to stop hiding, and I need to sleep. I can't sleep while he's locking his door and I can't reach him. Tae always thinks I'm the one who is supporting him, but it's the other way around. I can't go on with my life without him. He has those proud eyes that tell me I'm doing well. Someone like him who is terrified to be touched can sleep in my arms like a kid in his mother's arms. I take my power from his trust. He really trusts me.

Jungkook: "TAE HYUNG OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR, IT'S TOO MUCH, IT'S ALREADY 2 DAYS, YOU NEED TO EAT SOMETHING, I WILL COUNT TO 3 IF YOU DIDN'T OPEN THE DOOR I WILL BREAK IT"

I hope he takes my threats seriously. I wouldn't like to break his door. What if he started to be scared of me?!

It takes a minute or so for him to open the door. The dark circles around his eyes speak volumes about his sleepless nights.

I pulled him into a tight hug. He's here. He's fine. Nothing happened to him.

Jungkook: "You scared the shit out of me."

He's wearing that face that screams "help me" but never says a word. I let go of the hug and held his face in my palms.

Jungkook: "What's going on with you, hyung? Talk to me, please, hmm!"

There's something different in his eyes. And for the first time in how long now, I can't understand him.

Taehyung: "Jimin..."

Isn't he here because of what happened with Yun Hee? Why is he asking about Jimin? Did I miss something?!

Jungkook: "What is it with him, hyung?!"

Taehyung: "What will I do, Kook?! He... I'm terrified to look in his eyes. I know he's not fine, but... what should we do now? We can't let him grow up with it. I don't want him to live the same life I had. Please, Kook, help me."

His eyes keep pouring nonstop. I keep wiping them.

Jungkook: "Hyung... it's okay... we can help him... he will be fine... try to breathe with me."

His breath is not steady and it keeps getting worse each minute.

Taehyung: "But... bu... how he..."

Jungkook: "I will tell you, I swear, but you need to follow my breath first."

He started to focus and follow me.

Jungkook: "Yes, exactly... exhale, inhale... yes... again."

He started to calm down, but he's getting heavy in my hold. I supported him to reach his bed to sit down.

Jungkook: "You need to eat something, hyung."

He shook his head.

Taehyung: "I'm not hungry."

Namjoon: "Even if you're not, you must eat. Kook, go prepare something for him to eat."

Namjoon hyung got into the room with the expression we all are afraid of. This look has nothing good behind it. I felt Taehyung hyung tighten his hold on me. I don't need to look at him to know how scared he is now.

Jungkook: "Hyung... I can ask Noona to prepare it for him. He loves her..."

He cut me off.

Namjoon: "I need to have a talk with him, so you need to leave. You or her just bring him food and don't knock on the door. I will come with him to the dining room."

I looked at Tae hyung, and he kept begging me with his eyes to not leave him alone with Namjoon hyung. We both know that Namjoon hyung won't hurt him, but Tae just locked himself up for 2 days and he's not in a condition to handle an angry Namjoon hyung.

But I have no choice. When Namjoon hyung pulls up with the father character, no one should argue with him.

I pulled my hand from the iron grip Tae has on it.

Jungkook: "It's our hyung. Nothing will happen. We trust him, right?"

I hold his shoulder and meet his eyes. He just nodded in approval.

Jungkook: "He just needs to talk. I will bring your food."
