CHAPTER 34

Jennie's P.O.V.

The girls are out the room having fun with Taehyung. While I, I just sulk myself in the sheets, staring at my ceiling as I think so many things.

Ting...

I grabbed my phone saw his name.
I read it and it said,

"I'm coming )
~Jiminie

I look at his message again.

I just rolled my eyes over it, thinking I still have loads of time to prepare myself and I was surprised to hear a knock on my door.

He said he's coming..

But he's already here .

What the fuck...

I didn't even have the time to prepare myself. Right now I look like garbage.

"Come in." I said while I sat up. He comes in and closes the door behind him. He sat at the edge of my bed, inches near.

"Do you have something you want to say?" I smiled weakly, and falsely. I feel too burden that I couldn't even show him a real smile.

"Jennie, don't smile if you can't. " I was shocked and I looked down. "How did you know?"

He pulls my chin up, causing me to face him. "Of course I know. I know when you're happy, or lonely. Even behind your smiles, I can see it all in your eyes.." I looked the other side and avoided his look.

He pulls my chin again, and now he stares at me right at the eyes. we shared stares for a long while, with the silence surrounding us.. it was awkward and quiet until he pulls me to an embrace...

"Jim-" he cuts me off by tightening the embrace as he pleads me, "Let's stay like this for awhile.." i embraced him tighter, though i was unsure of his behavior at this moment... i didn't want to ask him how he feels at this point, i just wanted to comfort him, just as how he comforts me..

He didn't break the hug and until this point, gripping me tight. i felt so confused that i had to question why he was acting like this.. " Jimin, tell me.. " he didn't budge and i knew something is definitely wrong about him.. "let me hold you tight for once.. Jennie.." his voice was unstable, and he got a little louder, with hiccups following his words. The back of my shirt started to get wet as his teardrops fell... "Jimin.. I know something's wrong.." i wanted to pull away from the embrace, but his hands were too strong.. he continued to tear even more, which made want to escape from the hug.

i broke the hug and saw him crying helplessly in front of my eyes. "Jimin," i lifted his chin up, but he only flinched.. " if you don't wanna tell me what's wrong, it's alright.. But please, let me comfort you.." his eyes were focused to the ground, averting my gaze.. i pulled him closer to me, his head on my shoulders, and tears all over my shirt. I don't want to force him, knowing he would only hurt more.

But I'm still curious of what bothers him, of what's hurting him.. It hurts to see him like this. i gulped at the sight of him in pain, not knowing what should i do..

....................

Silence filled the room and until now, his head is still on my shoulders.. I noticed that he fell asleep on my shoulders, and so I put him on my bed, wrapping a blanket around him. I left the room and closed the door slowly and silently. Everyone wondered why I looked wet and teary and i just showed them a smile. I saw Taehyung right on the corner curious and worried and so i pulled him to the kitchen.

Taehyung is the closest to Jimin. They would share secrets and everything with each other, and their bond is powerful. It's only right if I tell him Jimin's state..

"Are you alright?" i nodded in response, assuring him with a smile. I suddenly changed my smile into a frown, as I remember Jimin.. " But Jimin, he, " he waited for my sentence, "he came to me and he just started to embrace me and just cried.."

" is there something wrong between your group? or maybe with him? i knew you had a close bond between the both of you so i came to ask you first..." he looked anxious as well, considering Jimin was his friend.

" where is he now?" he asked and i pointed out my room. " he fell asleep as he cried... So i just left him here.. " he lets out a soft smile while looking at him sleeping.. " he's just like a baby.." i continued to look at him as he starts to get teary too. "whenever something's up with him, i would be the one he would approach first. He would hug me tight, and weep for a long time.. Until he falls asleep. But he never tells me what's the issue until he's ready to say so.."

" but now, he approached you instead." my eyes averted to Jimin, knowing that it was all my fault why he and Taehyung never got to communicate for a month. "it's not your fault Jennie.. It was both of our choice.." i put my head up and faced him with guilt in my eyes. But still, i was the main reason why you had to choose.. i hate it, i just want to hate on myself..

Before i noticed, he was cuddling Jimin tight as Jimin was sleeping... I hope Jiimin would know about this.. How Taehyung just cares about him just like a brother... A brother...
