Yoongi chuckled and tilted his head at the confused man before him.
" Depression doesn't suit you. "
He took a few steps and looked up deeply into Hoseok's eyes, causing the younger to be taken aback from the close distance.
" So let me bring you...
" I don't know hyung, this dude sounds flirtatious. " the younger responded, obviously amused with the whole story, his expression mirroring the amusement.

" please don't. " Hoseok slightly laughed and shook his head. " besides, it's only a playdate and I barely even know the guy. Even the number exchange was awkward.. Let's not forget to add that I'm in no state to even consider having a love life. " the redhead reasoned, earning a snort from the younger.
" I didn't ask you to jump on his dick. He seems like a cool guy from what I've heard from you so far. get to know him, you could use a new friend and .. a distraction. " Taehyung carefully spoke out, his eyes facing anywhere but the older's.
" A distraction from my son you mean "
" I assumed you'd say that.. hyung I'm not asking you to forget about Haneul, that would be impossible not to mention wrong, but every time someone mentions him all you mostly recall is that accident. It's unfair .. both to you and Haneul-ah. Do you truly believe that he'd feel joyous whenever he sees you in that condition? do you think he's proud? relieved that his father is in complete misery whenever his son pops up in his mind?
you know it all, you're my best friend and I'll never give up on you, but I need you to help me out.. We weren't granted these souls for us to torture. Give yourself a chance to heal, put Haneul-ah out of his misery. Haneul's been suffering for as long as we can remember.. It's time to put an end to it. "
Hoseok remained speechless as he let the younger's words sink in. It did made sense to him, every word did; however, when it came to Haneul, nothing was easy. The nightmares weren't easy, the accident wasn't easy. Seung rin wasn't easy.
Yet he felt guilty that his friend never gave up on him, he felt that he was sucking taehyung's energy day by day with his actions and stubbornness. He felt grateful and touched with how much the younger genuinely cared for him; thus, gave himself a chance. He knew that nothing much will change, that he'll always find himself to blame over it all.
how could he put his son out of his misery if he couldn't escape his own? but he had to try, he had to create his own way at the end of the road.
Nodding in defeat, the redhead forced a smile and that's all it took for Taehyung to flash his contagious box smile.
Taehyung knew however that Hoseok half meant it. He knew it might take him a lifetime to heal him but he was glad the redhead was determined to give it a chance.
" I know it's easier said than done but.. I'm proud of you nonetheless and that will never change " the grey haired man stated with fondness, causing the older to playfully give him a headlock.
" always a touchy feely boy " Hoseok heaved a sigh and laid back on the couch as the younger raised an eyebrow, his curiosity got the best of him as he suddenly spoke his thoughts out.
