The heart monitor showed his pulse, which was dropping at an alarming rate.
"I'll leave you guys alone," the doctor said, smiling softly and walking out of the room.
Jin smiled at me.
"Go on."
He'd already spoke with his brother, and now it was my turn.
I nodded and inhaled slowly, looking at Jungkook, who tried his best at smiling.
His mouth barely moved, and it broke me to see him like this.
"Taehyung," his voice was hoarse, and I had to resist the urge to hug him right there and then. But I knew he didn't have long, so I let him speak.
"Thank you. Thank you for making my last moments here so memorable and enjoyable. I know I've hurt you so much in the past, and I don't know if you'll ever forgive me. But if I have to ask for forgiveness, I guess now's the right time."
He chuckled, but I could tell that it was forced.
And I let my tears out as I smiled at him.
"But I hope you know that what I did wasn't meant to hurt you. If it did, mianhae. But it hurt me just as much to leave someone I love so much."
This time, he was the one crying.
"I'll always remember the cheesy pick up lines you'd constantly use. I'll always remember the hugs and kisses you showered me with.
Thank you for making my life so much more worth living for.
Thank you for creating beautiful memories and blissful moments with me.
To be honest, I wish I had more time. You know? To make up for the four years we lost."
He chuckled, but then coughed.
"But I guess time doesn't wait for me. It doesn't wait for us.
Actually, I held off writing a goodbye letter because I actually thought I could live.
You know why?
Because of you. You gave me so much hope that I would live. I tried my best, Tae.
It just wasn't enough."
His eyes were slowly closing, his smile was slowly fading.
And his chest was barely rising.
"Right now, I wish I wrote that letter, because I have so much more that I have to say to you.
But I guess this is all I can say for now.
Tae, I know this seems hard, but I hope you move on.
Find someone better and worth spending your life with."
I fell on my knees and sobbed. But I could still hear his barely audible words.
"Because I couldn't do that for you.
I wish you the best of luck in life, Taetae hyung.
Saranghae..."
And with that, Jungkook drew his final breath.
And the heart monitor went still.
Jin fell on his knees beside his brother's bed and cried. Namjoon hugged his boyfriend, trying to comfort him while his own tears rolled down his cheeks.
I stood there and let my tears pour out. I tried to make them stop, but my emotions got the best of me.
I reached for Jungkook's cold hand and held it.
It felt like old times. When I would hold his hand when we were walking around, or when one of us were scared.
The only difference this time was that he didn't hold mine back.
"Saranghae, Kookie."
