COMMITMENT? || Kookmin

Chapter:39: COME AGAIN?

Next morning

I currently brought jimin outside to bribe him with something so jimin will call me hyung. Yup I'm officially buried under the ground. gone! I died dead.

His baby words and cuteness are absolutely killing me! Every time he babbles and giggles, my heart just melts. I can't help but smile and feel so much joy when I see him exploring the world with such innocence and wonder. It's like a little ray of sunshine in my day.

"You want more?" Jungkook asked buying Jimin favourite ice cream.

"Nu" jimin said in small baby voice simply shaking his head with his puffed cheeks. I squealed seeing jimin like that. Why is he so cute I'll cry river's because of his cuteness. I clenched my hands near jimin cheeks to not squeeze them but also bit my palm to not scream. Did I not see this 'THIS' before saying no to marry him.

"What happened?" Jimin asked cutely with his baby face and round eyes. I held my chest tightly feeling pain.

"Jiminie..you know there are many ways to kill people-apart from being cute" I held his cheeks softly eyeing those voluminous lips. Those are my sugar treat I want them but-but I should wait.

"I'm not cute. I'm sexy remember we both are same age stop treating me like you are elder" jimin pouts saying it. I have only one weakness it's his cute existence. Otherwise I fear nothing in life.

"Please just once..pleaseeeee call me hyung" I held my hairs tightly. I'm loosing my mind. This is extra doses of cuteness.

"You are not my hyung" Jimin stubbornly stomp his foot again cutely. At this point I don't want to separate jimin and cuteness.

"That- exactly, say the same thing again but erase 'not' from your sentence" i pulled jimin to sit down

"Nope" Jimin shook his head like a kid, his hand wrapped around a cone of ice cream. Jungkook watched as Jimin happily enjoyed his sweet treat. "When will I get my sweet treat?" I mumbled, a smile tugging at my lips.

"What is your sweet treat? Tell me, I'll buy it for you" Jimin asked, a wide grin spread across his face.

"You really don't know what my sweet treat is?" I chuckled, but Jimin just shook his head. "They may be... I don't know" I said, staring at Jimin's lips. "Maybe a thickness like this" I continued, holding up my finger to show his lips thickness. "With a pinkish, puffy, pillowy, velvety texture and tastes amazing" he licked his lips, coating them with a layer of saliva, making them look even more luscious.

"There is no sweet like this. You are just lying" Jimin said, continuing to eat his ice cream.

I just sat there, watching him with a content sigh. "You have no idea how tasty those are jimin. I've never even tasted them, but they look very delicious" I said, my mind filled with thoughts of my own sweet treat.

(they both are walking back home)

It seems like there's a lot going on here! Jungkook and Jimin are discussing Jimin's potential relationship with Eunwoo, arranged by Jimin's father Jungkook have feelings for Jimin, but Jimin seems may act oblivious to this and is considering the possibility of getting to know Eunwoo better.

Jungkook is struggling with his emotions, trying to find ways to show Jimin how he feels without directly admitting it. It's clear that the situation is causing Jungkook a lot of distress.

"Why do you keep asking me about Eunwoo, Jimin?" Jungkook asked, trying to keep his frustration in check. Jimin is going on and on about that guy.

Jimin looked up from his shoes, confusion plain on his face. Before he could do something jungkokk scrunch down himself. "I'm just trying to get your opinion. Don't you want me to be happy?"

Jungkook sighed. "Of course I do, but... I don't know. I just don't see you with anyone else" he gets more frustrated "why will you consider my opinion right? Your father has already arranged you with him" unintentionally it came out very arrogant.

"What do you mean, anyone else? And also You're my friend, Jungkook, your opinion matters to me. If you think Eunwoo would be a good fit, I'll give him a chance" Jimin's eyes were wide and earnest, and Jungkook felt his heart twist in his chest.

"But what about what you want, Jimin" Jungkook asked, his voice quiet. "Don't you want to be with someone who makes you happy, someone you truly love?"

Jimin blinked, taken aback. "I... I don't know. Love is complicated, isn't it?"

Jungkook took a deep breath. "It doesn't have to be. If you love someone, you know. There's no questioning, no doubting. You just know"

Jimin looked at Jungkook for a long moment, searching his face. A slow smile spread across his face. 'You're right, Jungkook. Love shouldn't be complicated. But think about it we share the same world he is also doctor and I'm also doctor. Isn't it what you said that I should be with someone who compliment my world?" Long pause both hit suddenly silent.

"And I think I might give him a chance" jimin finished his sentence nodding his head. Jungkook's heart leapt in his chest. "Jimin?"

In a concerned tone, Jungkook pleaded, "Jimin, you don't have to rush into anything. I just said you should take some time before deciding. I didn't mean for you to start dating him right away. And definitely not that you should text or call him!"

Jimin looked at Jungkook, genuinely confused. "But how else am I supposed to know if I like him or not? I can't just decide based on nothing. Besides, it's grandma who's arranging this"

Jungkook sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "You can find other ways to know him, but not by dating. Not yet" He paused, choosing his next words carefully. "And you don't have to do what grandma says. If you don't like him, you can just say no"

Jimin gave Jungkook a puzzled look. "But why are you so against the idea of me getting to know him?"

Jungkook hesitated before answering. "Because... because you're mine. My...my friend I won't let anyone take you away. You're not a piece of property to be handed off. It's situationship era jimin, why are you still behaving like arrange marriage is everything" he is trying hard to persuade jimin to say no to this.

He held Jimin's hand tightly, hoping he'd understand the depth of his feelings for him. Jimin looked at Jungkook, his eyes wide with surprise. Please say I love you I don't want to hear anything else jimin internally prays but.....There was a long, awkward silence before Jungkook finally spoke up. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say that. I know I'm not the one who gets to decide what you do with your life" jimin sighed in irritation this bitch.

Jimin squeezed Jungkook's hand, offering a small, reassuring smile. 'Thank you for caring about me, but I have to make my own decisions, okay? Nobody is forcing me Jungkook or I'm not in any marriage pressure. it's just me, I never dated anyone in my life I was never in a relation so I'm eager to have someone whom I can call mine"

Jungkook nodded, silently praying that Jimin would never leave his side.
