ROSE (Sequel To Fallen To Rise)

Six • The Happy Past, the Upsetting Present, and the Uncertain Future.

"Just shut up! I can't listen to your bullshit anymore!" Jeongguk yelled into the phone. "I'm busy okay! No, for god's sake I'm not cheating on you! I'm barely an idol and it's not like I've met any! No, I've known Namjoon and Jimin for all of my mother fucking life! God, stop being so clingy! Let me say this one last time before I hang up. I. AM. NOT. CHEATING. ON. YOU! Well than, fuck you, bitch."

Namjoon and Jimin winced. Jimin rubbed his ears. "Man, Jeongguk. You guys are really going through something."

Jeongguk plopped down onto a chair, rubbing his temples. "I swear I can't take it anymore. She's being all paranoid about nothing. And she's being extremely clingy. You have no idea how long it took me to pry herself off of me when I was trying to come here. I mean, I do love her, but she's really being too much," Jeongguk explained.

"Maybe you guys should just sit down and talk," Namjjoon spoke. "That's what Natsu and I do when we're fighting. Even if we're both angry with each other, we still try to talk it out." He paused his music and turned to face Jeongguk, analyzing his face to see his reaction.

"Maybe you should talk to Yoongi or Minnie about this," Jimin added. "They've been together for a long time and they fight, but they always make up. Maybe ask them."

"I dunno, Noona and I have been pretty distant." Jeongguk looked at his phone which had a picture of Miniko and him from years before everything, when they were at the factory. He smiled at the memories of her mothering him and how innocent he used to be. "Maybe it's because I grew up and she can't mother me anymore," he mumbled to himself.

"She has SJ," Namjoon pointed out. But he could understand where Jeongguk were coming from. Miniko always looked over Jeongguk just as much as Jin did with the other boys. He would always go to her when he was sick or just wanted to be around someone. And she never minded, he thought Miniko actually enjoyed taking care of Jeongguk.

"Yeah, but everything changed over these years. I kinda miss the past." Jeongguk closed his eyes and settled in his seat. His mind went through the past, fond of the memories he used to share with all of his friends. Now he barely sees any of the group besides Namjoon and Jimin. He misses them, for sure.

Opening his eyes, Jeongguk grabbed his phone and texted Miniko. He frowned when he saw that the last time they had a conversation was a few weeks ago. 'Has it been that long, really?' Shaking his head, he began to type his message. 'We've been so busy. I doubt any companies would want a bunch of old guys like us.'

Kookie: Noona, do you want to meet for coffee? =)
