fourteen.

ㅡ epiphany.

jimin sighed as he gazed at the dark sky, putting his chin atop on his folded hands. his heart stills hurts from his husband's ignorance since he left, but his aches for him as well.

he misses jungkook.

he's been trying to call the latter but not one call was answered nor any messages were replied. jimin groans and flutters his eyes shut when he feels his stomach growling, having not eatsn ghe whole day made him want to empty out his insides. he had been refusing kihyun's request for him to eat or he'll fall sick but he doesn't listen. all he knows is that he misses his husband who probably isn't even thinking of him.

"yes, of course he had arrived safely. i'm sorry for not informing you earlier, crown prince" jimin sighs out in relief as he leans against his locker, bringing a hand up to his temple.

"can i talk to him?"

"i'm really sorry but the crown prince is attenting some country affairs and would be really busy. i'll let him call you back as soon as he is done, your highness"

"alright, please pass the message to jungkook, thank you mr. lee" jimin bit his dry lip as he slowly walked back to class, mot noticing all the concerned look on the student's faces.

"jimin-ah, you look really pale, you wanna go home?" yoongi asks softly, briefly pressing his palm against the other's forehead to check his temperature but jimin turned away, flashing a small and tight smile.

"i'm fine, please don't worry about me"

jungkook took the cup of tea and slowly drank it, finally getting his rest after a full day packed with conferences amd functions. he rests his back against the couch as mr. lee walks in.

"the crown prince called from seoul while you were away, do you want to call him?" the old man asks and jungkook stills for a moment before setting his cup down, waving the man off politely, "not now" mr. lee stands in shock before jungkook makes his way into his room to freshen up and rest for the night.

being sons of ceo's and big companies are followed with privileges, and this is one; granted a holiday when other students are in school studying. it's just unfortunate that mark, jackson, jaebum and yugyeom are in a cruise which is in thailand as well.

yugyeom swipes through his phone mindlessly, until a news popped up which made his eyes widen, jungkook is in thailand too.

"you can find me the hotel right?" yugyeom asks as only the both of them are in a corner of the cruise, the others having their dinner.

mark hums, looking up at the night view of bangkok, bustling with people. "can you get for me his schedule too?"

"probably. are you coming home with us?"

"no, i can go home by myself" mark rolls his eyes befor taking his phone out and starts finding the information his friend needs.

"tomorrow, you have a thai classical to watch and in the evening, a press conference will be held. tomorrow's press conference is really important therefore the script has been made and placed in your room for you to go through and practice" jungkook nods, looking out the hotel's window.

"and also, do you want to call the crown prince? he has called many times today-" mr. lee stops his sentence when jungkook fixes him a stare, bowing his head as the prince returns to his confines.

jin crosses his arms as he watches jimin staring into space, his art assignments forgotten. "he hasn't answered?" the male nods, not daring to look at his friend. there aren't many students today since it's a sunday but jimin and jin went back to finish up their art assignments. looking at the situation now, it doesn't seem as if they're going to finish it. "he hasn't answered one of your calls? what the hell is going on between you two?" jin says exasperated. he is tired of watching his friend go paler each day, zoning out most of the times and body becoming thinner.
