Chapter 117: Crossroads

           "PARK JIMIN IS MINE!!" Kyunsji cried as he kicked the tables and flipped the chairs in tears. "M-MY JIMIN! NOT YOURS!! YOU BASTARD I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" Kyunsji shouted as he looked at the screen watching Jimin let out a cute smile while he held hands with Jungkook. "Jimin..." Kyunsji whispered as the police officers payed him no mind.

             At the time, Yoongi arrived home from work, he had bags under his eyes from working too hard over the past view days and now he finally received his check after paying off the bills. The Alpha let out a sigh as he crawled into his bed, constantly glancing at the unread messages and missed video calls too. "Ah, I need to video call... H-Him..." Yoongi whispered as he turned on his laptop and decided to call Taehyung in it. After a long time of waiting and calling back again and again, Taehyung answered in his bathroom while he was applying a facemask.

            "Why haven't you left me a text?" Taehyung asked as Yoongi was hugging a pillow close as he couldn't keep his eyes open.

             "Mmm... I'm sorry. I work everyday. Please know that." Yoongi whispered as Taehyung applied the face mask.

              "Min Yoongi, I know you have breaks at work!" Taehyung bickered and tried not to make too much facial expressions while he softly massaged his face gently.

             "I-I sleep on my breaks..."

              "Okay, who the hell told you to work yourself so hard? Yoongi, this is bad for you! What if one day you overwork yourself too much and become unresponsive?! You'll be hospitalized and I wouldn't know a thing!" Taehyung raised his voice, taking off the face mask and dropping it in the trash.

            "Taehyung.. Please don't yell at me. Please.. I-I... Want to work hard for something. Yet, I don't want to say.." Yoongi said with a tired smile. "But I got what I was working hard for.

           "Stop smiling like this is okay! It's not! I worry about you and this isn't good for you, Yoongi! I care about you so much..."

             "T-Tae... Don't worry. I won't over work myself." Yoongi claimed as he looked at his check sitting on the bed.

            "Yoongi, have you even checked up with Jimin? Jungkook proposed to him now. Haven't you heard of that? About your best friend?"

              "I... Haven't talked to him in a long time. I forgot how amazing it felt to talk to him. I've been isolated already.... I have no one now. Only you." Yoongi confessed as Taehyung let out a sigh and looked at the screen.

             "Yoongi... Why do you do this to yourself? Next thing you know, you won't ever have time for me! Yoongi please listen, I-"

            "Really, Taehyung? All you want out of this is something about you? If I don't text or call, you'll just get mad and when I do, You wouldn't care about my health! I am trying, Taehyung... I really am... You know, I never wanted you to go! I never did but I let you... I let you go. Chase after your dreams and now? I'm a mess! I miss you alot! If you knew how much this hurts, you would understand that I let you go even if it killed me." Yoongi cried as Taehyung tilted his head.

          "Yoongi... I-I'm....sorry. But you should have told me you wanted me to stay!"

          "And be the one who ruins your dreams? No... I can't... Taehyung, I love you too much to ruin what you've been dreaming of." Yoongi whispered as he cupped his face own. "I'm sorry... But I try my best everyday... I try.." Yoongi said breaking into tears as Taehyung sighed.

            "I can quit for you.." Taehyung whispered as Yoongi's eyes widened.

            "No... No! Please don't!"
