Epilogue

A FEW DAYS LATER

The sunlight coming from the window had caused Jungkook to wake up at such at early time. He had barely slept, it has been a few days since Kookie's sleeping pills were him crying 'til he fell asleep at around 4-5 am in the morning. And he'd wake up at 7.

The past few days were spent wisely by Jungkook; he went all around the city to look for Taehyung. But today was different.

BEEP BEEP

It was a text message from Jimin, actually one that he had been waiting for. He had messaged him a day ago asking if he had news about Taehyung.

Jungkook-ah, Taehyung wanted you to see this.

File Attached: Video

Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows as it was a video of Taehyung. "Maybe he wants to see me? Or...I don't know! I'm so excited!!" Jungkook smiled to himself, thinking that the video was something he waited for to see.

He hesitantly played it for he thought he might run his way to Taehyung's house after he watches this video since he missed him so much; a wide grin was plastered on his face.

"Hey Kookie! You don't know how much I miss you! I-uhmmm, if this video has found its way to you, then it would mean I'm somewhere far from your reach, and I would like to say sorry for that. Because if you're watching this, I'm already dead. Sigh, I can almost imagine tears forming in your eyes right now, please don't cry. I know I have no right to say this but please don't mourn for me too long. Find yourself a good life and move on. Live in this world free of worries and regrets. And if you could, please forget about me. I don't want you to remember me and cry, I want to be like a happy picture, someone you'll look at and be able to smile. It'll be alright Kook," Jungkook couldn't comprehend what was happening as tears were endlessly rolling down his cheeks.

"Continue to smile brightly like you are. Continue making people happy and find someone you'll love. I don't want you to hold back thinking I'll get mad. I won't. All I want to see is a happy Kookie, with that I could feel at peace.

I want to thank you for all the memories. You had once told me that I should forget all my bad memories with you but I can't, since every time spent with you was a moment full of bliss for me. Every moment by your side I was filled with joy and only that. You have given me a chance Kookie; I started this treatment hoping that I would still fight my way out of this tumor that's eating me up. I'm sorry Kook, I lost in this battle.

Thank you for understanding me, it would be an understatement if I said that you did not do your best to try everything so that I would continue breathing. It was just like yesterday when you had stealen a kiss from me that night, at our trip. And everything started there, I knew that it will only be you and me against the world and I'm sorry for having pushed you away once. I'm sorry if I got tired of breathing. And please, do not blame yourself. You have done everything to make sure I am well. You couldn't have done it any better.

Thank you for holding my hand, knowing that it was cold, you still held it. Thank you for still holding on.  I will miss you my Kookie. Live happily and please don't stop wearing your neon outfits, I love them. I love everything about you. Your eyes that shimmer like the stars, your hair that you'd ruffle once in a while...I love you and never forget that. Jungkookie jjang!

We could've lived a great life, I swear I could almost imagine it in my head, you and me, playing around with our little Taeguk, it would have been great. You would have loved it. I'm sorry I left you so sudden that day, I should've properly said goodbye to you. I'm sorry—I'm sorry"

Jungkook's phone died, but Jungkook didn't seem to notice. He was lying on his bed, crying without him actually knowing. It seemed like the world stopped. Nothing was moving. Nothing made sense. Taehyung knew that he was bound to die anyways, while Jungkook has always thought that Taehyung will die, just not alone, but with him. He was surely not ready to let Taehyung go.
