Wednesday arrived faster than it should have been, not that the clinic wanted him to practice since his jaw was still sensitive and needed proper care. Any harsh stress on it would cause a serious fracture but who really cared? Not his family at least, they would be more happy if he joined the military and died in the process. Man enough to die as a soldier. Taehyung's parents weren't anyone he should have been proud of, nevertheless, when you are moulded into believing that this is how the world works, the infected mind starts dictating the body.

"Why are you here so soon? Didn't they tell you to take rest ?" Taehyung gave him a look and said, "none of your business."
Jungkook swiftly said, "but it is, you are in my team and as the team leader I have to  look after the members even if I am not very fond of you. Also you are the striker. It would be nice if you stayed back. We can't afford to lose because of your distorted face. "
"None cares and you aren't implying anything special." Taehyung went ahead towards the locker , just to fix his boots and t-shirt. "You can't freaking play today Taehyung, and I mean it."
"What the hell is wrong with you goddamnit man? Can't you see nobody really gives a single damn about it. Why the hell would you care? God pls just let me be." Jungkook looked with a sharp glare, "I fucking can't. They aren't captain they are guided by the coach and advised by me. So you better not move you ass from here. You got it? A week later you will play I promise but not today. Don't you see you are risking yourself quite unrelentlessly." Taehyung avoided looking at his face, "I cannot go back and I would like to stay and watch." Jungkook's brows crouched together in confusion but he didn't raise any further questions..

Taehyung sat on one of the players seat, wearing the jersey which represents the team he is playing for. But today he has to watch. Taehyung hopes that his parents don't certainly come to pay him a visit. All a vulnerable teen under the surveillance of his parent can do is hope.

The game was over, Jungkook's team won by 3-1 goal score. Penalty served itself as a wonderful opportunity for the team. Every player were sharing the companionship. All hostility was long forgotten and left back in the field. The members of the two teams shook hands and went their own way. One team was bestowed with a wide grinned smile and the other team was quite not.

"It might have left you a bit sad since you love to be on the field." Jungkook didn't at all mock but just said whatever he really wanted to. The words that plainly struck in his head, he blurted out. But "Did you just try to mock me-" ,, "no Taehyung not at all, right this moment it was not at all my intention. I was really concerned."
Taehyung just smiled, after a long time, a genuine smile surfaced on his face.
" I wish I could tell someone about my issues."
