Who are you?

58. CARE

"Uh.. Jimin? Is everything doing well?"

"Of course! I've been looking for a place lately! Some places are pretty nice... I might be able to move there soon..."

"................"

"What?"

Their conversation was like that every time. Yoongi already knew that Jimin was trying to pretend he was okay, but he pretended not to know, and Jimin also pretended not to notice Yoongi's consideration. 

Yoongi felt frustrated with himself, but he didn't want to hurt Jimin's pride. 

Jimin always looked tired. He worked at the convenience store from before the sun rose until school started. And he worked at a cafe after class. On weekends, he worked at a buffet or restaurant. Jimin did everything he had the chance to do.

And, watching Jimin like that, Yoongi sometimes felt the limits of his patience.

But,  what he could always say to Jimin was just same.

"Don't rush. I don't care if you stay..."

"I already owe you enough. Thank you for your generosity so far..."

"Like I said, I don't care."

That was all Yoongi could say.

That's why when he heard that Jimin had gone to JK Entertainment after receiving a call from someone, he couldn't just watch. 

"Fuck, Park Jimin- you're really annoying-"

 The regret that he should have done something for Jimin sooner made Yoongi impatient. And to avoid further regret, Yoongi hurriedly entered the building. A security guard stopped him as soon as he entered the door, but he had no time to explain the purpose of his visit. 

It wasn't difficult for him to subdue them, and Yoongi checked the location of Bogum's office by looking at the wall directory behind the information desk and headed straight to the elevator. He saw the woman at the desk talking to someone on the extension phone about what happened there, but he didn't care.

Yoongi got into the elevator and immediately called Jimin. He already called him    several times, but there was no response from Jimin. "Fuck – Answer the phone!" Even if he didn't answer, Yoongi couldn't stop. Yoongi was now cursing and blaming himself for not helping Jimin until now. Just watching him over the past few months was enough to tell him, Jimin definitely needed help. Yoongi was worried that Jimin's desperation would lead him to make rash decisions.

Yoongi pressed the call button again as he heard the elevator ring. "Damn it! Park Jimin, answer the fucking phone!" He got out of the elevator as soon as the door opened, and when he saw the sign at the vice president's office, he headed straight there. Yoongi knew that the moment he opened the door, he would make another fuss. It was obvious that the security guards were coming here after him. Anyway, he couldn't think of anything other than having to get Jimin out of there right away.

But when Yoongi almost reached the door, his phone rang. "Where are you!" He shouted as he answered the phone almost immediately after checking the caller. He was tense with impatience.

"What? What's wrong? How many times have you called? Are you a stalker?"

"Shit! Jimin, just tell me! Where are you?" Yoongi asked again urgently. Yoongi was almost angry for a moment when he heard his joking question.
