"How's my sweet boy doing?"

Jimin heard the calming voice speak behind the door that was opening.
He knew who it was.

"I'm good Jonginie hyung, how about you?"

Jongin placed the food tray on one of the nightstands and smiled at the younger.
He took a chair and closed the door in the process.
"I'm feeling quite okay today," he sat down and fixed the strands of hair that were getting in his way.

"I brought you something to eat," Jongin looked over at the steaming soup and pulled out a paper out of his jacket, "and the doctor gave me this, he wanted you to read it and write something in it."

Jimin took a deep breath, already feeling the effects of his heart giving out, "what is it?" He whispered.

"I'm not supposed to read it, it's yours anyway. Open it," Jongin nagged.

Jimin took the piece of paper in his shaky hands and managed to open it.

Seoul Hospital, October 10th, 2017

Dear Park Jimin,

We have the final date for you.
October 13th, around 12am.
We are extremely sorry and we feel guilty for not finding a solution, but we hope you've found peace and you have all the people you love around you. Dr. Min Joohyun prepared a list on the other side of the paper for you to fill out.
You'll have to write your final wishes, things you want before the day comes and your final meal. Again we are sincerely sorry for everything, but we hope you're not in any kind of pain and you leave in peace.

Jimin blankly stared at the piece of the paper, not knowing how to respond, only tears streaming down his cheeks.
Jongin noticed the shocked boy, his posture changing, slowly leaning towards him, "what was it? What did it say?"

Jimin returned to reality as he eagerly wiped his tears, "uh, it–it was about my release from the hospital," he lied.

He didn't wanna cause any more suffering so he lied, even if it hurt him he still lied, because it was better for him to be in pain, rather than his friends and the people he loved.

"When are you leaving," Jongin smiled.

"October 13th."

"My birthday." Jimin said to himself.

Jungkook rested his head against the hard mattress and stared at the ceiling.
His eyes were red and puffy. His face looked exhausted as well as his body and he was slowly, minute by minute losing his mind.
A huge grin was plastered on his face as he murmured the words he had written on a pile of crumbled pieces of paper that were all over his room.

To take his mind off of the horrible thoughts, he wrote a promise to himself and to him.

To Jimin hyung.

Five years later here we are.
Together but apart, loving but hurting and I don't know what to think anymore.
I miss you and I love you.
I am sorry for hurting you and not realizing how much it affected you.
I miss the days where we would sleep, walk, eat, speak, love and be together.
Nobody is telling me anything about you and you're not answering your phone, but I know you're okay. You always are and I will come to you when I find where you're at.
But right now, at 2am in the morning, I am crying.
Silent sobs are echoing in my small bedroom, calling out for help, from anyone, to take me to you, because no matter how strong and unaffected I may appear, I am broken and I am suffering, but it's not your fault.
Because it's mine. Because it's me who caused this heartbreak and I apologize for not being able to think straight.
I'll fight for you, even when the sky comes falling down, I will be with you even if you're not with me.
Through words, I promise that I will protect you, take care of you and love you till the end of times. But please come back to me, I am hurting and I am lost without you.
