Through a singing voice, Jungkook meets Taehyung while he's visiting his uncle, however Taehyung is temporary blind, he lost the trust towards everyone. Will Jungkook able to help him gain the trust back?
Top! Jungkook
Bottom! Taehyung
Started: Nove...
After the visit with his uncle, he went straight to Taehyung's room. As he knocks on the door, there's no respond.
Maybe he went out for a walk...
He tries glancing out the window, he then a familiar figure sitting on a bench.
I wonder what's he doing out there? Maybe I should get down there and give him a surprise.
With a quick turn, he sees Ms. Kim waving her hand enthusiastically at him.
"Oh hi Jungkook! Didn't get to say hi to you earlier this morning." Ms. Kim smiles after waving her hand, "So how was your morning so far?"
"It was great, but didn't get to speak with my uncle for any longer since he insists to sleep more, after spending all night reading his favourite novel."
"Oh dear, I told him that he should spent night time for sleeping instead for reading." Ms. Kim let out a sigh as she pinches her nose bridge, "Anyway, I suppose you're here at the end of the hallway visiting Taehyung right?"
Jungkook nods, "Yea, just realize he's out there, I should go downstairs for an outdoor chit-chat," the younger shyly smiles, "I'll talk to with you later when-"
"Wait, I need to tell you something before you leave." Ms. Kim stops the younger.
"Is it something important?" Jungkook tilts his head in confusion.
"Well...it's actually about Taehyung's behaviour currently. I've noticed since you met him, the way he acts and speaks did made a change, he hasn't been that positive ever since the day he came here."
"Wait, how long has he been here? If you don't mind me asking." The younger asks, as if trying to know the elder a bit better.
"Okay, just don't tell him I'm the one telling you all this." Ms. Kim pleads him.
Jungkook gave her a nod. Oh well for sure he's gonna figure out who told me about him anyways. Can't assure you can get away from him Ms. Kim.
"Taehyung has been here, unfortunately, for seven months, from what've I known, he had an accident that caused him a temporary blindness which he needs a surgery to get both of his corneas fix."
Jungkook let out a small gasp, he didn't expect to hear the tragedy of the elder, all along he didn't even realize the elder couldn't see him, at all.
"Maybe it's the trauma that affects his behaviours, I'm glad he's starting to feel better after he met you. I really appreciate it, I've never seen him smiling and talking to the others whenever I walk passed his room, I can tell he had a lot fun since then. Thank you Jungkook, for helping this angel out of his misery." Ms. Kim gave the younger a hug as a way for appreciation, she's really touched to see improvements of her clients.
"That's really good news, I'm glad to hear that I can help him out, maybe I should consider being a social worker in the future." The younger chuckles as they broke the hug.
"Sorry for keeping you here that long, I should get going." Ms. Kim starts to walk off to her office, but then she realizes she forgot to make a request for the younger "Oh and Jungkook? Would you mind bringing him back here before night comes? I have a tight schedule today, sorry for causing inconvenient." She bows.
"No, it's alright, I shouldn't be here interrupting your work as well, have a nice day Ms. Kim if I don't see you later." Jungkook walks toward the elevator before he bid a goodbye towards the nurse.

Once Jungkook arrived at the garden, he has been circling around the area. Thinking back what Ms. Kim told him about Taehyung's condition.
Should I ask about his past? But I don't want to trigger him, he might suffered a lot back then, but I want to know the truth...
"Jungkook? Is that you?" Jungkook snapped out of his thoughts when he heard Taehyung's questioning.
"How did you know it's me?" The younger tries to ask, as he knows the other shouldn't be able to see him.
"I don't know...just my guess...so how are you today?" Taehyung nervously chuckles, trying to get off topic hoping the younger not to question about his eyes condition.
"Look, Taehyung..." The younger approaches the elder as he sat beside him, "I want you to be honest with me, and I also hope you don't mind me for being rude."
The elder nodded, motioning him to continue.
"I've heard about your condition..." The younger notices the other's hands start trembling.
"I'm not trying to force you to say it, it's just...I care about you, and I want to know more about you." Jungkook grabs the other's hand, intertwining their fingers, as giving him a sense of comfort.
"You are an angel, Taehyung. I'm really glad to know you, you are really kind and funny person," Taehyung blushes as he heard the compliments from the younger. "You might had a rough past, a past that suffocates your heart, and I hope you can let it out, let out all the negatives as relieve all the stress."
Taehyung lowers his head, "I promise you I won't tell any-"
"I trust you Jungkook," The elder cuts off the other, "I appreciate that you helped me, like a lot. Before I met you, it's been hell for me." Taehyung let out a bitter smile.
"I had an accident seven months ago, to be specific, a car accident, which caused damages to my eyes. Since my family lives in Daegu, and they had to earn large amount of money to provide for my surgeries. I've been through the first process, I manage to see things but in a blurry sight," Taehyung raises his hand and gently touch his cheek, "Even though I can't see your face, at least I can see your figure." The elder shows his boxy smile.
"The reason I don't trust anyone because of someone, someone that I loved, that I adored, that I cherished, and on the day before the accident, my heart shattered to pieces, it hurts, it hurts me the fact this person that I trust is actually a liar. This is why I don't have any faith on anyone, including you, Jungkook."
"And that's why you were being offensive at the first day I met you?" The younger questions.
"I didn't do it on purpose, Jungkook, I'm sorry." Jungkook notices the elder's tears start rolling. He pulls the other into a hug.
"Let it all out, don't feel embarrassed." Taehyung snuggles his face more into the younger's neck, Jungkook could feel the tears soaking his shirt, he gently ruffles the elder's hair.
"I was scared, Jungkook." Taehyung mumbles, "I was scared you would do the same like him."
"Tell me about it, like I said, don't keep it in your heart." Jungkook whispers in a soft voice.
"Alright. Thank you for hear me out." Taehyung smiles.
