Ch11 ~ At fifteen...

Jimin, Jin and Jungkook sat awkwardly at the table as their appetites ceased to exist. The two Kwons had fled the dinner table, due to the rudeness Jihoon had been mercilessly spouting all throughout the evening meal. Questions and rude remarks such as: 'You can eat you know' or 'this is the part where you chew' and even 'where do you live?' The child just couldn't keep his mouth shut, his sodium levels measured off the charts since his brother had brought a total stranger - he'd heard from a third party and not Yoongi - had been ogling at for the past few weeks. No doubt the heated acts of anguish toward the angel-faced man had driven the elder Kwon into a flaming corner. Yoongi was just about ready to throw a chair at the child when he asked to speak to him outside the dining area, not wishing to spoil the mood.

"A-are they okay?" Jimin's eyes lingered on the door in which the two Kwon residents had just exited.

"Hard to say..." Jin answered, his elbows leaning on the edge of the table and placed his chin on his hardened, whitened knuckles. "They could be a while, Yoongi seemed to be very angry with him."

"Hoonie's gonna be pissy about this when he gets back." Jungkook popped a load of rice into his mouth and began chewing. "We should eat while they're out, won't get a moment's peace if those two are going head to head."

"Head to head?" Jimin wasn't familiar with the term, unable to interpret it in his own head.

"Yeah," Jin cut in. "you know, when two people battle it out?"

"Yeah..." Jungkook sounded oddly excited while describing the gory image in his head. "...and they both emerge bloody and parts are everywhere, their weapons out of ammo and still, neither one of the combatants give in with the little energy they got, they drop their weapons and prepare for the bloody-"

"Kookie!" Jin interfered once again, halting him from saying his next few sentences. He swore he could have vomited if he hadn't stopped him when he did. "Jeez! You definitely have to lay off on all the video games." he scolded him, he pouted and got back to eating. One thing Jungkook had learned while being present in the human world for fifteen years, was that the moment he opened his mouth, he'd get shut down real quick. And so, he refrained from speaking.

"That's what's happening out there?!" Jimin stood to his feet and looked horrified at the two boys on the dining table. "Oh my Goodness we have to stop them from killing each other!"

"NO!" Jin reached forward and grabbed his wrist. He felt the rapid pulse in Jimin's wrist under his crooked fingers and quickly decided he couldn't let the boy out with those two hot headed alpha males in the corridor. "That's not, I don't think, what's happening out there! They're just... Yoongi's giving Hoonie a really firm talking to, and it's best not to disturb them since at this time... how do I put it?"

"Jihoon's going to be angry at anyone who witnesses him being afraid and vulnerable." Jungkook warned. "I'd just sit down and not worry... Yoongi hyung is trying to make sure you're not harassed like that again so just eat like he wants you to." Jungkook suggested, and it was. Yoongi only wanted Jimin to eat since he was stuck on the streets instead of in a house with warm beds and hot home cooked meals. Jimin looked down at the food and his mouth began to water again, his senses tingling with the desire to ingest the food instead of gazing at it from a far. Jimin had been close to food, so close in fact that he could have almost touched it, if not for the glass restricting his hands from going in and taking it.

He sat down and picked up his chopsticks, proceeding to eat just as he had dreamed he would after what seemed like a lifetime of dreaming.

Jihoon and Yoongi stood in the corridor with death glares going at it for miles, both glares pointing at each other with great haste as they continued the anguished silence. Yoongi had an idea of what he would say but it was in his best interest as well as his brother's to let Jihoon speak, apologise before he spoke since he was the one at fault. But, his brother only stood his ground stubbornly, prolonging the unspoken conversation with dirty looks and poisonous glaring.

"Well?" Yoongi finally spoke, breaking the silence between them since it was obvious Jihoon was going to refuse to give in until his brother spoke first. Yoongi proceeded being the bigger man. Unfortunately for Yoongi, his brother only tilted his head to the side, feigning innocence. "Are you going to apologise or am I going to have to scream it out of you?"

"I don't have anything to be sorry for." Jihoon maintained a stoic expression, the glare in his eyes still evident as he crossed his arms.

"Kwon Jihoon!" Yoongi raised his voice and made his younger brother jump, looking away from Yoongi's angry expression. His eyebrows were furrowed and it was as if Yoongi had grown at least five inches since they had exited the dining room. "You disrespected a guest! He doesn't deserve such rudeness it's embarrassing! What would mom say if she saw you acting so rashly to someone you just met?"

"Why are you bringing mom into this?!"

"Because," Yoongi folded his own arms. "think how heartbroken she would be if she were to find that you were someone who doesn't have much? Someone who's less fortunate than you are..." Jihoon scowled at the ground.

"BUT YOU BRING ALL SORTS OF PEOPLE HOME!" He finally rose his voice with his pent-up anger dripping off every word. "YOU TAKE THEM ALL HOME AND I HAVE TO LISTEN TO YOU FUCKING THEM ALL NIGHT LONG!" Jihoon screamed, enough so the neighbours would hear him. Yoongi could feel his blood boiling and rushing to his cheeks. Still, he maintained his blank expression. "Hyung, I am fifteen and I have already heard fifty different types of people moaning out your name all because you wanted five thousand different rebounds to get over one pathetic, cheating girl!" Yoongi clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white and draining all the blood from them as he held back a punch. "What makes this guy any different?!"

"I HAVEN'T GOT THAT INTENTION FOR HIM!" he bawled out. "HE'S A HOMELESS PERSON WITHOUT ANY FAMILY, FRIENDS OR A REASON TO GO ON LIVING! ALL I WANTED TO DO WAS SHOW HIM A HOT MEAL AND NOT HAVE TO WATCH HIM GIVE HIS BELONGINGS UP FOR OTHER PEOPLE! I WANTED TO DO SOMETHING GOOD WHY IS THAT SO DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND!?" He was practically bawling out at this point, holding back his tears and choking back the lump in his throat. He gasped for air, holding back his emotions and letting them out equally exhausting him.

"AND I'M SORRY YOU HAD TO HEAR ALL OF THAT AT FIFTEEN BUT YOU'VE NEVER BEEN IN LOVE! YOU'VE NEVER HAD TO DEAL WITH THE DEPRESSION AND YOU'VE NEVER HURT SO MUCH YOU WANTED TO KILL YOURSELF!" he fumed, grabbing a clay vase and throwing it across the corridor, startling Jihoon and making him dart his eyes to the broken vase. He looked back at his brother, tears starting to flow out of his eyes.

"God you don't get it..." fifteen year old Jihoon ran up the stairs and didn't look back, didn't even stop to glance at his broken older brother. At fifteen, you think the world's against you, you think that your first love is the person you'll love for the rest of your life; at fifteen, you idolise your older siblings and wonder why they're so amazing, but at fifteen... Jihoon had yet to get to those stages. Still in love with his piano and guitar, still thought the world was a good one even though it's a wretched, horrible place because of the people and not He who made it... but he still idolised his older brother... so why was it, for the first time in his life was he so against this homeless person?...
