Ignore The Mistakes.

Jungkook came back to collect his important stuffs and heard their conversation.
 
Jungkook's gaze locked onto Taehyung's tear-stained face.

Regret washed over him, tempering his earlier anger.

"Taehyung..." Jungkook whispered, taking a step forward.

Taehyung's eyes lifted, red-rimmed and puffy.

"Hyung?" Taehyung's voice trembled.

Jungkook's throat constricted.

"I... didn't mean to hurt you," Jungkook said.

Mingyu discreetly exited, leaving them alone. Taehyung's tears slowed.

"Why did you think we'd prank you, hyung?" Taehyung asked.

Jungkook hesitated.

"Painful memories resurfaced," Jungkook admitted.

Taehyung's expression softened.

"Tell me, hyung. What happened?"

Jungkook's eyes closed.

Jungkook's eyes reopened, a mix of sadness and vulnerability.

"I was pranked repeatedly in high school, college." Jungkook began.

"Fake friendships, hidden cameras... everyone laughed at me."

Taehyung's expression turned horrified.

"Hyung, I'm so sorry," Taehyung whispered.

Jungkook's voice cracked.

"I thought I'd escaped it all, but seeing Mingyu's camera..."

Taehyung stepped closer.

"We'd never hurt you, hyung. You're my mentor."

Jungkook's gaze searched Taehyung's.

"You don't think I'm weak?" Jungkook asked.

Taehyung's hands wrapped around Jungkook's.

"You're strong, hyung. You survived."

Jungkook's eyes welled up, Taehyung's words soothing his deepest fears.

"You're strong, hyung. You survived," Taehyung repeated.

Jungkook's tears fell, and Taehyung pulled him into a warm embrace.

"I've got you, hyung. No one will hurt you again," Taehyung whispered.

Jungkook caught off by sudden hug, bite his trembling lip, and buried his face in the crook of Taehyung.

Mingyu returned with a concerned expression.

"Is everything okay?" Mingyu asked. Taehyung nodded.

"Hyung just needed to talk something through," Taehyung struggled to utter, sniffling.

Mingyu's eyes locked onto Jungkook's tear-stained face.

"We're here for you, Jungkook," Mingyu assured. Jungkook's heart swelled.

For the first time, he felt truly understood. Jungkook's tears slowed, replaced by a sense of calm.
