Chapter 60: I'm hurting inside

           The younger finally stood up in the office as he carried the flash drive away from the laptop and walked over to a wooden plank within the floor. Jungkook stepped over it, ensuring that it made a creaking sound so he could make sure which one was it. Once the boy lifted one of the wooden planks, he set it aside and there sat a big plastic bag where he stored memory cards within them and other flash drives. Hiding something big from the his Chief.

          Jungkook was down on his knees as he opened the bag and stored the flash drive where he was seen framing Sehiro. Just as Jungkook gazed at the bag once more, there was about 14 hidden memory cards and 5 flash drives. Jungkook's devilish smirk faded as he let out a sigh and set the plank back over the big cavity of where he hid many things from Park Jimin. He didn't seem proud of it, rather, worried and afraid. Fearing Jimin could one day find all of this. The boy hid the bag from the world as he closed the plank over the hiding spot. After, he stood up and backed away from the wooden part of the floor, he left it like there was nothing hiding under it. Just a solid wood over the floor as usual.

              The younger then closed all programs, ensuring he deleted the footage permanently and left no trace of him tampering with the surveillance. Shortly, Jungkook just paced away from the laptop and left the office so he could cook Seaweed soup for Jimin. It was unclear of his intentions. He could have been trying to get rid of Sehiro since he was a suspect from the start, maybe he noticed something off from the officer and used a regular old Katana against Sehiro. Doing all of this to frame a suspicious man that could have been undercover from the start, However... Jungkook didnt know a thing about Sehiro and his private life. That would never be answered to the boy. Along with the unanswered question on why Jungkook went so far to frame the late Riyu Sehiro. Was it for good purposes at the very end?

              Jungkook made it to the kitchen and put on the apron and took out the seaweed from the fridge and checked through it to make sure it wasn't too dry or too bitter to even look through. Meanwhile, Jimin was still in bed, still having Sehiro's badge on. "Why... Why did they have to take you from us? You weren't a stable man and you were very suspicious... But why...? Were you in the gang too? L-Like Mr. Wong? The gang killed him... Or did they? Did you do it?" Jimin kept asking as he grew silent after. Knowing he would have no response from Sehiro himself. "The gang or loan shark could have killed him off... But all evidence points towards you... You could have told me instead of letting me figure this one out while I cry over the friendly memories we shared." Jimin continued to weep as he let out a sigh. "I can't help but to cry over the wasted times..." Jimin sobbed to himself.

            Only then, Jungkook came across his mind once more. The boy's smile, his beautiful gaze and perfect slight chuckle he would make. It meant a lot to him and Jimin just knew he had to keep on fighting for Jungkook. Just for Jungkook only. Jimin loved the boy no matter what, but of course... He didn't know what Jungkook hid under his sleeve, but all he knew was the love he had for Jungkook was beyond compare.

             "All for you... I'm doing this for you..." Jimin whispered as he remembered Jungkook was cooking seaweed soup for him. It was about time Jimin stopped silencing his appetite. Even if he lost a close friend, his day was falling deep into a dark storm with only Jungkook as his light at the end. Jimin finally grasped onto the light and stood up, feeling dizzy as he walked over to the door as his posture remained slouched. He walked out of the room and longed to see Jungkook now. Not wanting him to cook alone.

          Jungkook of course was standing by the stove cooking the slightly salty and green hot seaweed soup for Jimin and himself as tears were starting to run down his face from the guilt he had of storing the flash drive away. He had been doing it before, but it was never noted on what he hid. He only felt awful. Never in his life he felt as upset about hiding things from Jimin. But now he did, he felt this way because love from the Chief filled him. Love was what made him guilty of his doings and Jungkook felt like he was choking from all these things that made him guilty for framing Sehiro but the cause was what Jungkook could never tell Jimin about.
