Family Forgiveness

Ch.26

Jimin's P.O.V.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The shock still hasn't left me. Jungkook and I glared at the back of Yoongi's head. He told us he could feel it but he didn't care. How could he tell us to leave Taehyung like that? The feeling of coming back to the warehouse without him was indescribable. It was something I never wanted to experience with the other members. This actually happened though. Taehyung was arrested because of us. No...it wasn't my fault nor was it Taehyung's. Hoseok's and Seokjin also wanted to help the second youngest. It was Yoongi and what hurt me most, Namjoon. The guy Taehyung boasted about knowing when he wanted us to join the gang.

(F/n) was excited to see us back but immediately noticed the mood. I didn't want to be the one to tell her what happened. She looked at us with those eyes, silently counting us. Yoongi walked off to the back room while Seokjin went to the table. He put his face into his hands. Jungkook and I wanted to let out the same groan of disbelief. The one of disgust for our actions. We left Taehyung. He's not just our friend, but our brother! My eyes followed Namjoon who didn't say a word to (F/n) as she stuttered out her question. Where's Taehyung? He didn't answer her and was lost in his own mind. We needed answers for why he let that happen.

Hoseok seemed to be the most affected by what had happened. He didn't dare look at Namjoon during the ride back. Even now he kept his mouth shut, ignoring the pink hair. Hoseok did lift his head to see if Namjoon would respond to (F/n) but he didn't. That was the last straw for the sunshine of the gang. He would usually cheer us up. Bring us together, make us laugh, and get us thinking on the positive side. There was none of that right now. Namjoon managed to destroy something he can't physically touch. Friendship and trust.

"Yah!" Hoseok shouted at Namjoon for his attention. The leader turned around with an expression that only pissed me off.

"What?"

"You're not even going to tell (F/n) what you let happen to Taehyung? What you did back there?" Hoseok scoffed. Namjoon cocked up a brow at his friend's anger.

"Hoseok—" Namjoon tried to speak, but the red head wasn't done yet.

"Because of your problems, you let them consume you. You were too worried about the amount of money you needed—" Hoseok was shouting. As soon as he mentioned Namjoon's money problems, the pink hair nervously glanced at (F/n). She was listening to this information and I felt bad. She was hearing about the Namjoon she knew nothing about.

"Hey! That's not something for you to talk about!" Namjoon yelled. (F/n) flinched at the shouts between the two aggressive men.

"—to pay for all those medical bills! We get it. We were poor too that we can't afford hospital bills and we know that medicine is expensive!" Hoseok continued on, "But as the leader you can't let your mom's sickness affect you! Once you started to get needier for money, you got sloppy with the criminal skill you've grown over the years! You only thought about your needs that you forgot our f*cking safety!"

Namjoon shook his head. He didn't want to hear this from Hoseok, but he needed to. Jungkook and I made him feel like he was under a microscope. (F/n) hearing this all for the first time made him insecure. We knew about his issues with money. He briefly went over it with us and specifically told us not to tell (F/n). He knew she would worry and try to help. He also requested us not to give him hand outs. He wanted to get the money in the best way he could. Of course it wasn't legal but what choice did he have? He needed the money fast, but Hoseok was right. Namjoon let his mind get clouded and failed all of us. Not just Taehyung.

"Taehyung was arrested because of you! He called out your name twice and begged for you. He only called my name once...and it haunts me. I can't live with myself like this. I feel ashamed." Hoseok grew teary eyed. "Then while Taehyung is crying for us, you tell Seokjin to go. To just drive. Yeah, Yoongi told you guys to drive, but in the end it was your call. You let Taehyung get arrested. You let this happen to Taehyung!"
