Her Hope [BTS J-Hope]

C H A P T E R E L E V E N

The hug lasted forever. The embrace of Jimin, my older brother felt utmost wonderful. However, I still had some questions lingering in my mind. 

So what happened to me?

Does this mean that 'our father' is the owner of these companies?

Do I have to leave Taehyung, my best friend who has been through thick and thin for me?

We left the hug. Jimin looking at me with a joyous face, while I had a poker face starring out into the distance. Jimin noticed my blank face and gave a tone of concern for me.

"Mina? What's wrong?' He asked. I had kept the poker face longer until he shook me out of my mind palace and back into reality.

"I-uh-I just have so many questions. So many concerns..." I put back.

"Ah right! Okay, sit down because you won't probably get up from digesting all this information." He said. He motioned me to sit down next to him and began to continue.

"Shoot."

"Alright. So, what exactly happened to me. I mean, I know about the car accident but I need more information. Why was I left almost abandoned afterwards?" I was about to continue, when Jimin's complexion had grown paler, as did the others. I had stopped so he could gather his thoughts.

"Well..." He hesitated for a moment. "The thing is, when the-the accident occurred..." His voice started to crack up. I took his hand into mine and held it tight, telling him that all was okay, to be strong.

He cleared his throat and continued. 

"When the accident occurred, you were in college here in Seoul. You lived close by to me and dad, but we barely ever saw you, due to the classes you were taking. But going back to the main question...when me and dad came to the hospital to see you..." His complexion became paler and paler with every word, tears falling down his face, unable to bring himself to the fact.

"We came to the hospital to see you. The doctors had came up to us and told us that you..." My eyes were looking at him intently, yet on the brink of tears.

"That you...you had died." I began shaking my head in denial. How could the doctors presume me like that when I'm here... ALIVE! 

Speechless and mute, I let him continue.

"Dad and I heard the news and left without seeing you. Don't get me wrong, we wanted to see you, but dad has high blood pressure. He has a risk of a heart attack so, the doctors advised me to leave the scene along with him."

Silence had filled the studio once again. Why is that silence is the loudest noise of all? It seems so deafening, so pure. 

"But..." Jimin broke the loudest sound. 

I turned to face him. 

"But the doctors got the wrong filing. They were supposed to tell us that you were going to suffer from amnesia, but those idiots messed it up. During your college time, you were roomies with Taehyung here. When he saw you at the hospital, he knew something was up. He addressed it to me and..." He hesitated once more. "And your boyfriend."

I was perplexed, flustered, happy, so many feelings going around me at once. So much information to digest. But when he said 'boyfriend', I stared at him asking him silently who my boyfriend was.

Jimin turned, looking at someone in the room. I followed the direction of his eyes and landed on..... Hoseok.

Hoseok and I locked eyes. This man, the very man who I work for was my boyfriend. The man who acted so differently to me, was the man I once loved... the man who once loved me.

Even though the moment lasted for a minute, it seemed like an eternity. 

Taehyung came up to me and looked nerved, like he wanted to say something.

"Mina. I think you should go home." He said.

I quickly rose, wanting to go home, to digest what just happened in my life. I looked at Taehyung waiting for him to get the stuff to go home, when he suddenly shook his head.

"No. Go back to your home. The home you grew up in. The home where you, your brother, and your father live."

My best friend was just going to leave me like that. He stood up confidently, embracing me in a large bear hug. 

"Don't worry about me. Go to your family. I live down the street and on the corner from where you live so, feel free to visit anytime!" He began to be childish again! Oh how he was a great person!!

"Come pack your stuff tomorrow! But I better see you at work Monday!!" He gave his famous box grin.

"Aish you alien! I will, but you have to help okay?" I smiled, saying back to him.

"Ahhhhh! I'll bring the whole crew for you!" He said excitedly.

With that being the end, Jimin and I left the studio leaving the crew behind.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We parked in front of our house. I've already been here before, more like a couple of days ago. Oh how Seoul is such a small place!

Jimin directed me to my old room. 

"I'll leave you here to be nostalgic. You have some pj's and clothes in your closet. Be down in about an hour, I'll have lunch ready!" He left, closing the door behind him.

Walking around the large bedroom, so blue. The tall walls colored in a light blue, beautiful cherry wood floors covering from one end to the other. I had such a large queen size bed, with such soft bed sheets and blankets covering it. I walked into the bathroom. It was an en suite! Tall showers, large bath tub, all in a white marble! I was living in a fantasy wonderland! Walking out to enter my closet, I gasped in excitement. Clothes of all types all around, of all different colors, so many shoes, jewelry and accessories everywhere. Was I really this extra? 

I grabbed some comfy clothes and changed into them, wanting to see if they still fitted me. I tried out the dresses. Some where uncomfortable, but some were beautiful. Changing back into my original clothing, I walked back out to see more of my room. In the distance, I saw a bunch of trophies. Looking at them more closely, they all said about my outstanding performances in school. 

'Straight A Student'

'Best Vocal and Dancing Second Place in Seoul'

'Outstanding Academic Performance In Seoul University First Semester'

And the list continued.

I glanced around and found my work desk. Getting closer, I saw many pictures of me and Jimin. Some of dad and I. However, there was one photo that stood out to me the most and that was of me and Hoseok. We look ever so happy. The photo was taken in a beach setting, us sitting in the white sand smiling stupidly, but so happy. I starred at that photo for a long time. 

Looking around, I opened a drawer filled with papers. Hidden within the papers, I found a mini journal and a small diamond necklace attached to a gold chain. Taking these contents out, there was small note attached to the necklace.

It read; 

To my dearest, beloved Mina! Continue to shine like the diamond on this necklace. You always shine the brightest out of all the others and I love you for that! I am forever blessed to have you as my girlfriend! Happy First Anniversary! Saranghae!!

-Love, 

Your Hope, your sunshine, your one and only Hobi!

The tears began to slowly fall. He really loved me that much, so much that he had to let go of me to get better. Oh, the pain and struggle he must have gone through just because of me. The guilt built inside of me. I must see Hoseok soon! I hope he comes to help pack tomorrow, I need to speak to him.

"MINA! Lunch is ready!" I heard Jimin chime from downstairs. I quickly wore the gorgeous necklace and sped downstairs.
