A Love To Remember || YM

part 4

Yoongi knows so much about Jimin.

He knows the bad.

He knows the good.

He always chose to say for the good because they often outweighed the bad.

There were some things he wished he didn't know about Jimin. It wasn't that it was because it made Jimin a bad person, or that it was Jimin's fault.

The things he wished he didn't know, were the things he wished had never happened to Jimin.

He wished he didn't know about how Jimin was bullied because he wished Jimin was never bullied.

He wished he didn't know about why Jimin was so insecure because he wished Jimin wasn't insecure.

He wished he didn't know why it was so hard for Jimin to simply be Jimin because he wished Jimin loved himself the way Yoongi loved him.

Yoongi still remembers the first time he ever saw Jimin truly upset.

He had walked Jimin back to his dorm and when they entered they saw Taehyung.

Taehyung turned around, he was smiling and had lipstick on, "Hey Hyung! Look at what I got! The makeup department came by to do the acting class's makeup. A girl said she really wanted to put this shade if lipstick on me, something about it going with my skin tone really well, but anyway, she liked how it looked and so did everyone else so they gave me the lipstick. Pretty cool huh? I mean, I don't know if I'm going to wear it or not but I like how it looks."

Yoongi looked over at Jimin, he remembered what Jimin had told him about the ladies at his mother's work putting makeup on him.

Jimin had a sad look on his face. He just nodded and said, "Yeah Taehyung, it's a really nice shade on you."

After that, he went to his room.

Taehyung turned to Yoongi with a confused look on his face, "What was that about? Do you know if something happened today?"

Yoongi had just shrugged, "I don't know, he seemed fine before, let me go see if he's ok."

Taehyung nodded and Yoongi made his way to Jimin room. He knocked before entering, "Jimin, are you ok? I d- are you crying?"

Jimin quickly wiped his eyes and shook his head, "No, it's fine. I'm fine. It's nothing."

Yoongi sat down next to him on his bed. He had never seen Jimin cry before. He didn't like it, it didn't suit the boy.

Nudging him slightly Yoongi spoke, "You and I both know that's not true. What's wrong? Did something happen just now?"

Jimin took a deep breath, "It's stupid. Seriously, I should be over it."

"Jiminnie, what is it? What should you be over?"

Jimin looked at his hands, "You know how I told you about how the women at my mom's work would put makeup on me?" Yoongi nodded, "Well, they gave me a tube of lipstick one day and I was so happy. I couldn't believe I finally had my own makeup, we could barely afford other things, makeup wasn't exactly on the list of important things. I was so excited in fact, that I decided to wear it to school the next day. A lot of people looked and treated me differently. There were so hurtful names thrown my way, when I got home I didn't understand why I was being treated so differently, I didn't even think if it being the lipstick." Jimin let's out a sad laugh, "Of course I wore it again the next day. Why wouldn't I? I felt amazing when I wore it. But, there were a few older guys that grabbed me, I was able to swat them away before they actually touched me but I didn't like it. God, I was an idiot. I still didn't even think about it being the lipstick. So I wore it again the next day, it was a Friday so I had to walk home, nothing out if the normal. People were still picking on me a little but not as much. So I was on my way home and the same guys that were grabbing at me before jumped me behind some building. The kept grabbing at my ass and some gross guy kept kissing me. Finally, one guy said something along the lines of ' You sure do look like a beautiful girl with that lipstick on, wonder if it would feel the same fucking you'. Thankfully they didn't do anything more than grope me but I was so fucking scared they were going to do more. Someone had passed by not too long after and they ran. Needless to say, I threw the lipstick away that night." Jimin had a few tears falling down his cheeks again.
