Yoongi woke up to the sound of his phone. He rubbed his eyes, trying to get used to the light of the phone as he reached to his phone. He squinted his eyes, his vision blurry, not allowing him to see the name of the person calling. He picked up his phone at last.

"Hyung, were you sleeping?" Jeongguk asked through the phone. As soon as Yoongi heard Jeongguk's sweet, shy voice, his anger died down. How could he be angry at him? Jeongguk could do everything which would make him get angry if it was another person, 'cause Jeongguk was special.

"It's okay Jeongguk, I was bound to wake up anyway," he replied back. Jeongguk let out a small, almost impossible to hear, breath. Almost.

"I can close, hyung, you must be very tired. I can call back later," Jeongguk mutters. Yoongi held himself back from letting out a sigh, from anger. When was he going to understand? Jeongguk could call Yoongi during the end of the world and Yoongi would somehow still answer...

They had been next to one another for years, ever since Jeongguk was born. Their mothers were very close friends since their university years and often spent the day together. Sometimes Yoongi's mother would drop him to her friend's house if she had to go somewhere urgent. Yoongi didn't pay much attention to the younger boy that seemed to love and wish to be exactly like Yoongi until Jeongguk was in high-school. Jeongguk had always been a skinny kid, short compared to most, and extremely shy. He preferred helping his mother with her small market instead of playing outside with the other kids, or make up random reasons for Yoongi to take Jeongguk with him to where he went. Yoongi being a teen, found it very bothersome and often tried to avoid Jeongguk. He would act harshly towards the younger boy, even if it made something inside him sting to see those Bambi eyes hurt.

He kept avoiding him, treating him bad, making fun of the younger with his group of friends until Jeongguk skipped a day of school one day. It would be normal for most, but it wasn't in their case. Jeongguk made sure to come to the school no matter what. He would often get nagged by the teachers for coming to school sick, calling him selfish for risking other students health. This habit of Jeongguk just made him more annoying in Yoongi's eyes. Who in their right mind would come to school every single day?

He chose to not give much thought about that, saw it as a good way of getting rid of the kid. But karma came back to bite his ass, his mother became really worried for Jeongguk and sent Yoongi to deliver the homemade food for the younger, considering he was probably alone at home for the whole day since his mother had to work.

Seeing the kid who always had sparkles in his eyes, had a huge amount of energy and a big smile, looking so dull made Yoongi feel sorry. It wasn't that hard to figure out that his group of friends were the reason for this, sending him to get them snacks in the pouring rain. It was Yoongi's fault mainly, for just watching Jeongguk get kicked around within his friends like a dog.
