Divorce House (Yoonmin)

11:59 pm

Yoongi pov (Week 3: Saturday)

Today is the day.

Everything will come out...finally.

I smile to myself as I lay in bed. It's just passed 9 o'clock and I feel oddly refreshed knowing that later tonight, I won't be in the dark anymore. It does help that Jimin did mention that he never wanted a divorce either...

I'm still trying to sort out my feelings on that. If he didn't want a divorce... why did he do it? Was it because of his father? Just letting him enter my thoughts has me ticked off. How can someone like Jimin come from him? I mean Jimin was sweet before he turned into the spawn of satan-

"You're awake." Jimin says with sleepy eyes, "Why do you look so stressed?" At his ridiculous question, I raise an eyebrow. In response, he stretches out on the bed. "Oh yeah, I forgot."

"Kind of hard not to be stressed in this situation." I add, making Jimin nod along as he props himself up on his pillow to face me. 

"Aren't I supposed to be the one that worries?" He questions, with a smile playing on his lips.

"Everyone worries Jimin." I throw the sheets off of me and sit on the edge of the bed, turning my back towards Jimin. "Want to get out for the day? I think it would be good for Hoseok too."

I close my eyes when I feel Jimin's hands massage my shoulders, "Where do you want to go?" He breathes, knowing exactly what he's doing.

"First, away from you." I answer strictly out of habit.  I wince when his hands dig deep into my shoulders, making me stand up. Why did I say that? "Sorry, I'm just- I know you didn't want a divorce, but that doesn't mean we can go back to normal." I don't spare a second glance at his face knowing full well that he probably looks like a kicked puppy. Instead, I go to the bathroom to wash up.

From the other side of the door, Jimin calls out, "I'll go tell Hoseok to get ready." Once I hear a faint click, it lets me know that the door to our room shut. I exhale and stare at my reflection in the mirror. I need to learn how to control my tongue sometimes.

Having Hoseok and Cupcake come along for the outing was better than I thought it would be. Cupcake was one busy puppy. As we walked along the side walks she would bark and try to jump up on people, so I had to make sure she behaved. But, other times people welcomed her hyper attitude and wanted to pet her. Then, Hoseok dragged us all around to different places, making us window shop as he so put it and try street food. Overall, it was a nice distraction from Yoongi. 

My heart still stung from the burn early this morning. I always knew Yoongi was blunt, but he just gives no room to breathe sometimes. I know it's my fault that he has all his guards up and I can't blame him...but I'm just hoping that after tonight...he'll hate me a little less.

"Jimin, why the long face?" Hoseok ask as we walk up the steps to the Divorce House. "Didn't you have fun?" I stare at his concerned face and muster up a smile.

"Yeah, I did. Um, Hoseok?" We enter the house. "If you don't mind me asking...why are you here?" At my words, Hoseok's face visibly darkens. He ignores my question by taking off his shoes. "It's just that- I would feel more comfortable if I knew why you insisted on staying with us-"

"Jimin, I told you that I would talk to Hoseok about that." I grit my teeth together as Yoongi unhooks Cupcake from her leash. 

"I'll tell you guys, but-" It's silent as we wait for him to continue. "I really had no one else to turn too." My eyes soften at the way Hoseok's voice cracks. I was never that close to Hoseok even when Yoongi and I were married. I just had casual conversations with him whenever I came to visit Yoongi at the office. So, hearing Hoseok sound so defeated is a new occurrence for me.

"Okay, how about we all wash up before we sit down to talk." Yoongi suggest and we both agree. Suddenly my nerves are back up as we each go our separate directions...in just a few more hours...everything will come out.

The time on the television reads 9:56 pm as I wait for everyone to gather. The first to arrive is Jimin who decides to sit in the lazy chair adjacent to the couch I'm sitting on. Then, follows Hoseok who takes his time sitting next to me on the couch. I notice how his shoulders hunch and how he keeps his head hanging low.

"When ever you're ready." I say, making Hoseok exhale.

"Remember the guy I was telling you about? Taehyung?" He starts. I nod my head, but pick up on how Jimin stiffens. "He won't leave me alone..."

"What do you mean by that?" I inquire as Hoseok turns to face me. His eyes are watering as he lets out a shaky breath.

"I didn't think much about bringing him back to my place the first time we hooked up because my parents went on some romantic get away." He laughs weakly. "But, after I rejected him that one time he kept coming back to my place. Ringing the door bell. Leaving flowers. Messages. Anything to let me know that he was there. Thankfully, I was able to hide everything before my parents saw." He pauses, and bites down on his lip. "But, then he would..."

My mind goes numb at this revelation. All of this sounds like an intense case of stalking. But, if this Taehyung guy was doing this to Hoseok...what about Jimin-

My train of thought is interrupted when Jimin stands up from his seat abruptly and walks out of the room. My eyes follow him as he heads down the hall until he disappears. "I'm sorry. I know this is a lot to take in." Hoseok apologizes.

I shake my head. "No, it's fine. He's just a really sensitive person..." I trail off. 

"Should I continue?" Hoseok ask and as much as I want to get to the bottom of why Jimin left. I know it's still too early. The clock reads 10:35 pm, so the best thing to do is wait.

I'm such an idiot. I sniffle as I curl up in one of the overly cushy movie chairs. After Hoseok said Taehyung...my mind went blank. I just couldn't think clearly. All I could do was run to this stupid movie room, nobody ever uses. The only good thing I can say about it, is it's a good place to get away. I watch through murky eyes, Park Shin Hye fall in love with a man that's way older than her in this Doctors drama. 

I raise the remote to click on the second episode, but it's taken out of my hand by none other than Yoongi. He sits in the chair next to me and wipes my tears. " It's time." 

A/N Yay, I updated! Cliffhanger because I got to milk this reveal. Hope you all enjoyed this chapter and decide to vote, and comment. Until next time, my faithful Burritos! Deuces~
