#2 LIE

"Caught in a lie. Find me that was innocent and take me out of this hell. I can't free myself from this lie and pain. Give me back my laughter and save the me who's being punished."

-Lie by Jimin BTS-

"Jimin... What are you doing this evening? Do you wanna join me dancing?" Hoseok suddenly came flapping his hands silly and sit in front of Jimin while smiling like a sunshine.

"This evening? I'm sorry. I already promised Yoongi to play basketball with him." He remembered that Yoongi asked him this morning to play because he wanted to show a new trick to him.

It has been five years since he moved to Seoul and his life slowly began to change. Although he still can't forget Taehyung, he rarely got that nightmare now and started to speak with others around him.

He knew that his family were so worried about him and tried many ways to make him happy. Therefore, he began to erase the tragic memories. He doesn't want his family being dragged down into his misery too. He tried to cover up his pain alone and show them his smile though he's not really smiling inside. He still crying at night and always lost in thoughts when he's alone.

He still remembers the first time he got into the new school in Seoul, everyone was trying so hard to communicate with him but he can't open up himself and always sit alone. Hoseok and Yoongi were the only ones who never left him behind until he finally started to talk with others.

They always stick around together. Although Yoongi is a year older than Hoseok, they are close to each other and just looking at them make him remembered when Taehyung still alive. How he used to be with him. Then he joined the basketball club together with Yoongi and danced with Hoseok during free time and weekends. He started to let himself busy and mixed up with the society.

As time goes passing by, Jimin's gotten famous because of his look, his talents in dancing and sports, and he tops in academics. He has a cute and angelic face. His eyes are big and split down at the end. When he smiles, his eyes smile too. His body frame's small and thin.

Since the incident, he rarely can eat so that's how he can get so thin now. Everyone including the teachers likes him because of his nice, respectful, and humble personalities. Now that he's in the senior year, he was elected to be the students' president. Although he declined it at first, then he changed his mind and accepted the request. One of the reason is that he wanted to make himself busier.

"Jiminnnn... Are you really supposed to play with him today? You aren't running away from me right?"

Hoseok snapped his fingers in front of Jimin's face. He looks startled.

Hoseok knew that something's off about Jimin. He always looks down and sad. The first time he met Jimin, it was too difficult to make him talked. But he never gave up. There's something about Jimin that attracted him. Something that makes him deadly curious of. He's being so secretive.

"Of course not. You know that I love dancing so much right?! So why do you doubt me?"

Lately, Hoseok had been questioning him and trying to dig his past. He knew that Hoseok was concerned about him but, Jimin was not ready to tell anyone or open up his sad misery. He doesn't want to get so close to anyone because of he afraid that he would lose them again.

"I'm sorry. It's not like I doubt you or anything. For five years I know you, you haven't told us any of your problem or complication. I know that you're a nice person and you don't wanna hurt anyone, but we are your friends. Sometimes, when you're alone, you always get carried away and lost in your thoughts. We know that you're hiding something from us. We can see it in your eyes. So please tell us."
